FoY has single-handedly brought my mha obsession back with this dilf 😭

[roo-brr]

I saw the silly Hawks and Dabi frog meme thingys, and I couldn't resist. I had to make a Shinyo one.

He's a frog now.

(I have, clearly, rubbed out around some of swq's art for his...limbs? Did it in the same way these lads were made) ⬇️

It’s been a little over a year so I decided to do a redraw of the first drawing of Shinyo I ever posted!

Barely Contained Excitement

He can barely contain his excitement, it’s been four years, with Mrs. Inko’s help, daddy only had to serve four years in prison for his numerous questionable crimes (let it not be said Mrs. Inko wasn’t extremely good at what she did). Seeing daddy in the prison uniform the first few visits always made him cry when he had to go home with Mrs. Inko. He didn’t get to touch daddy, no hugs, no hair ruffles, no wing pets or scratches, no tickles, and that made him cry too.  

But today was the day, a long four grueling years, a total of one thousand four hundred and sixty days without being able to wake up to daddy cooking breakfast in the kitchen or laughing or singing or attacking him with tickles or surprise hugs or petting his wings (just the thought of it makes him want to cry again) where he could only see daddy for one hour every Saturday as long as daddy was good.  

Daddy promised to be on his best behavior so he could keep coming to visit.  

And today was the day.  

Wings fluttering excitedly, standing with Mrs. Inko outside the prison doors, Keigo bounces on the balls of his feet, stare unwavering as he watches the door for movement. Daddy was being released at noon, twelve o’clock, lunch time.  

He turns to the green haired woman beside him. “What time is it now, Mrs. Inko?”

Mrs. Midoriya chuckles softly. “Eleven fifty-nine, Little Wings.”

“One more minute! One more minute, Mrs. Inko!” Fear suddenly washes over him. “What if daddy isn’t gettin’ out Mrs. Inko! What if they say he has to stay! What if!”

“Don’t worry, Baby Bird.” She assures the nine year old as she pets his feathery hair back. “Your daddy’s being released today for sure. They can’t keep him. I was guaranteed.”

He bounces excitedly when the doors open and someone comes walking out, and his bouncing comes to a stop when it turns out to be a man with blue scales, his bouncing begins again when he sees another person come walking out, and halts when it turns out to be a woman with spikes in her arms, his bouncing begins anew when he sees another person come walking out.  

Scruffy scarred face, scarred arms, long feathery hair, wine red wings.  

“DADDY!”

Keigo’s off before anyone can blink, wings bouncing behind him as he darts forward, Kettie grins, dropping the coat he’d been wearing upon intake to catch the chick up midstep. “Babyfeathers!” Hugging the winged nine year old close for a moment before pulling him back to nuzzle him. “How’s my Lil Raptor doin’?”

“Daddy I missed you!” The nine year old doesn’t quite want to let go just yet, clutching the shoulders of the man’s shirt, nuzzling him back happily. “You’ve been gone forever and ever and ever!”

“It’s only been four years Lil Chirps.” The rehabilitated villain chuckles softly. “That ain’t such a long time.”

“Daddy.” Keigo stares at him firmly and calls out in the most matter of fact voice he can muster. “That’s one thousand four hundred and sixty days.”

Kettie barks a laugh. “You can count up that high?”

“Daddy, I’m a big kid, of course I can count that high!” The boy sounds slightly offended. “I can count super high.”

“Nah, babychirps, you’re still just a lil thing.” The winged man looks him up and down. “A tiny lil chick still, have you even gone through your first molt, it looks like you still got some baby feathers in there.” He wiggles his fingers in the boys still chubby tummy lightly to make him shriek with giggles. “Yous still just a baby bird.”

“Dahahaahaddyy!” Keigo squirms around those wiggling fingers. “I am not! I’m a big boy now!”

“That you are, I’ll agree with that.” Kettie scoops his jacket up with one hand as he settles his chick on his other hip for easier carrying. “Yous tummy gotten bigger.”

“Daddy!” The nine year old exclaims. “So has yours!”

“I like to think its the whole ‘dad bod’ business.” Kettie affirms at the insults thrown at him in a playful manner. “After all I got myself a chick, ain’t I, that makes me a dad and it only suits me better.”

“I missed you daddy!” Keigo hugs the mans neck tightly. “It was such a long wait! I counted down every day until you got to come home again! Every sleep and every school day! I counted it all down!”

The exconvict catches up with the green haired woman who’s been raising his son in his absence. “Thats gotta have been a lot of counting. Im surprised you counted that high.”

“I told you daddy, I’m a big boy, I can count really really high!” The nine year old chirps happily. “I can’t wait to show you all my art projects I made at school! Mrs Inko kept them all in a big book so you could see them all!”

“I can’t wait to see them all, Baby Talons.” Kettie bounces him lightly. “I wanna see it all.”

Keigo hugs him again and he turns to brush a kiss over the youth’s cheek as he follows Inko to their car. “I missed you daddy.”

“I missed you too Keigo.” He knows daddy’s being serious when he uses his real name instead of one of his silly names. “More than you will ever know. You were my reason for carrying on. Getting to see you behind that glass was the hardest thing daddy’s ever had to do.” Kettie presses their cheeks together. “Made me miss you even more.”

“Daddy,” Keigo falls silent for a moment as him and daddy slide into the back seat of Inko’s car, daddy has to shed some feathers but Keigo’s are still small enough to fit perfectly fine. “Will we play one of our games when we get home again?”

“One of our games?” The just released convict chuckles and wiggles his fingers in the boy’s sides, making him shriek with laughter and squirm in his lap, batting at his hands frantically. “You thought daddy wasn’t going to come after his ticklish little chickling when we got home now that I can hold you close again?” Keigo leans forward to try and get away from the fingers wiggling in his side. “You bet we can play one of our games.” Keigo yelps when he’s tugged back. “How about we start now?”

“Not now daddy!” Keigo shrieks with laughter when daddy pauses half way into the side of his neck. “Later!”

“Nah.” Kettie shakes his head. “I just did four years. We’re startin’ now.”

Hawks' father was a petty thief and murderer, hardly the most glamorous arrest of Endeavor. Still, that day is fundamental for his personal story. Not only it was the stepping stone of the hero origin of Hawks, but it was the stepping stone of villain origin of Ending. A real "sliding doors" moment, lol.

[ivyines]

Does anyone know this fic, PLEASE!!

it was a short fic, oneshot probably

The plot was about how Keigo / Hawks is crime prince considering his father is thief king and how underworld has unwritten rule to not touch him knowing his dad escaped prison and destroyed commission after they kiddnaped his son.

Endeavor makes an appearance and looks down on him but he solves the case with his underworld connections and shows of how competent he is :)

[tonya-the-chicken]

Theres a thing thats bugging me after reading some fics but just why didn't Takami or Tomie have Hawks steal before considering his quirk is perfect. Theres HCs where they train him from childhood to pickpocket but Hawks having this strong moral compass and guilt.

Tomie had Keigo for one reason: to keep Takami around so she wouldn't look at him beyond this function. He kinda was nothing but a bother after this. Training him would require the bare amount of care and attention and I don't think Takami had it. Both Tomie and Takami were just too caught up in their issues

Kinda funny, maybe if they saw their son as more of a human they would make a good villain out of him! But he was nothing but a mean to tie up a man to a woman. Lol Takami got some moral compass or what? Why having a son would make him stay? Tomie is such a dummy (I love her)

Inspired by "Fear of you" written by @sleepwalkersqueen

Note: Hello! I am very new to all of this posting stuff on tumblr so I hope this will be received atleast okay. But considering how nice most people are here I think it is safe in a way(atleast I hope so). And my first little story is a fanfiction for a fanfiction. Since I still have an absolute brainrot from the story "Fear of you" from @sleepwalkersqueen and it kinda kicked me out of my writersblock that I had for... Like 5 years? So yeah that is hopefully ending now.

Disclaimer: mentions of torture, english is not my first language, mention of mutilating, mention of psychological abuse

Summary: Howashi Amayas first thoughts while meeting with Takami Shinyo back in Tartarus for the very first time.

The moment I walked into the tiny cell my breath stopped and it felt like it may never return again. Leaving my lungs hollow just like my heart felt since forever.

Not because the whites from the walls and ceiling that looked clearer than the clouds in the sky, with the harsh lights from the room that burned my eyes. It wasn't the smell of something rotting away aswell. Or even how tense the room felt when I stepped into it, a pair of eyes glaring at me.

It was the colour of the sun going down in the horizon. The sky that turned this golden orange making everything feel peaceful and free. The sun that held this ruby colour one could sink into. Like the most beautiful reddest strawberry one could eat.

A red richer than a rose but just as many thorns.

Sharp eyes that looked way too clear for being forced to stay here in the most high security prison in the world, Tartarus.

If it weren't for the eyebags forming under his eyes I would have thought he might aswell just be a doll, too perfect and pretty for a human.

His golden hair that looked a little too sticky to be clean still hold something so beautiful it reminded me of the fukuroda falls.

And yet all this thinking about how good he looks made this scene even more absurd.

The silvery metal that covered half of his face, like a biting dog that needed a muzzle. His hands tightly held by heavy chains. Strapped onto some weird chair that doesn't let you sit but instead forced you to stand. No comfort in being a prisoner.

The beautiful red that was behind his back were pierced with metal rods and more chains. I could smell the never ending blood that came out of the pierced parts of the rods. How rotten it smelled, like a bird at the side of the road that was hit one too many times with a car.

A caged bird. A caged dangerous bird that for some reason made the most dangerous villain in this facilty look like they are weaker than this kicked chicken. They were stronger than him.

Takami Shinyo, imprisoned for theft and taunting a hero on duty. Multiple tax evasions, smuggling and so much more I can't remember.On his file was written he killed people but that was never able to be proven, for now.

Since he was captured by the No. 2 hero Endeavour he behaved god right awful. He only ever gives snarky comments and made the most hilarious awful bird puns. He fighted off any guard at any given moment and he even bit someones finger off that later was never found and so the poor lad lost it forever. He refused to eat and drink properly resulting in having to force feed him, that also explained why he bit off the finger, the guards lost their humanity just like all the prisoners afterall.

But even if he would have behaved any better I can't even blame him. Being tortured and having to endure the panic of mock executions surely messes with ones head even if he did that since day one.

Now I even had to start questioning why I am here in the first place, why I agreed to be here.

Perhaps deep down it was because Endeavour has been trying really hard to get one of the people involved with Takami-San out of this floor and I felt pity. Him trying to find someone that would be a better person for the position in his eyes. Resulting in him interviewing the entire facilty staff before he saw me walking around at the higher floors and ultimately decided I was good enough, atleast in his words and with the few words we shared with each other. Even though I was not a guard but a therapist but that seemed to make him even more sure. Laughing and telling me how much of a lost course he is, still finding it a good opportunity to break his soul more, what a cruel hero.

And now here I was standing, staring at the chained man that I only saw once at another time. Flying in the sky like a free bird. Not caring what anyone might think about a mutant using their powers they have since birth. How admirable.

If I could go back to that moment, before everything else started to go down hill. How he escaped the highest security prison to ever exist and how he tortured Imawamashi maybe while escaping, what a man. I wouldn't go back.

Maybe I would allow him this freedom he deserves, because if I know one thing for sure that is that Shinyo is not a bad person, maybe a bad human sure but not bad.

But to relive this very moment? Me staring at him with wide eyes and the most professional phrase one could say to their new patient.

"You're so gorgeous"

[transhawks]

So, uh, just reread "chapter"all it takes is one bad day" and does Twice have pure white pupils and irises like AFO supposedly does? Like, I haven't seen any clear official art of his eyes, but in the one back cover of him they look like they're pure white?

At this point I'm just going to have to make an entire essay on how we should be reading Japanese media with an understanding of cultural and class markers. No, Jin does not have the same eyes or similar eyes to AFO. Yes, there's connections with Jin and AFO but that's another topic. 1. AFO's eye color hasn't been really confirmed aside from that one WSJ cover that implies they can be clear and white. 2. That's not what the "something about my eyes rubs people the wrong way" means. This is what I mean about the cultural context being missing from most of us Western-readers and how we just don't get reading the manga with no guide to explain small details to us. I also wish Jin was just popular so I don't feel like I'm the only one in the fandom yammering about the ridiculous amount of depth he has as a character and in his storyline. First off, Jin's eyes are sunken in, his features abnormally "chiseled" and rough for an anime character. By the time we meet him he looks like he's had a hard life but we also find out in flashbacks he always kind of looked like that.

He's unkempt - stubbled, has the sunken eyes and dark eyebags the villains are generally drawn with. He smokes, drinks, wears a wife beater, has no eyebrows, and used to ride a motorcycle. All these things are a red flag. This is where "you really need to be familiar with Japanese media before you read BNHA" comes in, Jin, while drawing from several different Western comic characters (John Constantine, Deadpool, Rorschach), is also neatly fitting into the yanki and bosuzoku (sorta) trope. Or Japanese delinquents. What throws people "off" is the lack of eyebrows. Yanki are traditionally portrayed with no eyebrows. This link here explains that at sight a delinquent can be identified with shaved eyebrows. This is why so many villainous or rough characters are eyebrowless. It's like the Japanese equivalent of giving villains twirly mustaches and goatees - something about the imagery of that already implies villain in our minds, whereas the lack of eyebrows implies delinquent/criminal in the Japanese cultural imagination (in modern day settings. Heian-era eyebrow-lessness is a different story/class marker).

He's also blonde, or "chapatsu" which is also another "Delinquent" trope in Japan - many delinquents in the 70s-90s bleached their hair to this yellow or orange color (hence "cha" which obviously means tea/chai). Japanese schools are infamously awful at allowing for self-expression to the point where naturally brown-haired students can be forced to dye their hair, and chapatsu hair was a marker of a rebellious/delinquent student. Twice isn't the only one who Horikoshi uses this trope for. Tomura, for example, really had the "up to no good" look early on even if I think he's more of a homebody.

You know who else?

Huh, interesting, given Takami's a murderous professional career thief alcoholic. Wait a minute, wasn't Jin was one of the greatest Japanese thieves until his accident, I wonder exactly what Horikoshi meant by making Thief Takami have a similarly unkempt appearance, rough rugged facial features, and barely any brows? Wait -

Something to understand is that we've gotten information from Yoco Akiyama in TUM about how the main manga's design process works and apparently the facial feature consistency is really important for the artists. Thus the fact Keigo's parents were designed with: 1. Rough, sunken features (Thief & Jin) 2. Unkempt facial fair (Thief & JIn) 3. Deep eyebags (Jin & Tomie) 4. Similarly disordered filthy homes (Takami fam & Jin) 5. Beer Bottles lying around everywhere (Takami fam & Jin) 6. Small, beady eyes with little pupils (Takami Fam & Jin) 7. Grey-Blue Eyes (Tomie & Jin) 8. Clear mental instability (Tomie & Jin) Was absolutely intentional. For all that we see Keigo's parents, Horikoshi knowingly designed them to resemble Jin. Again, Jin was Keigo's villain to save. Keigo was Jin's hero. Keigo failed because we needed a character to fail to save "their villain". Both Keigo and Jin have clear working-class background and criminal class markers. These things tie them together, these marginalized identifications make their relationship something that should have worked. If we want an in-universe reason for Keigo's focus on Jin, it's absolutely true he likely (subconciously) saw his parents superficially reflected in Jin, and decided to "save" him because he was unable to save his parents. Of course, that was not only presumptuous, it was also wrong because Jin is not a stand-in for Keigo's parents (and unlike them is a decent person). Anyway, yeah, no Jin's design/looks made him look like a "thug" to people in his community. That's why he had issues and that's what his comment meant. People's biases about people who look like Twice made him just get...away less. If someone "looks like a thug" you will try to make connections that justify that bias. That's why things like his motorcycle accident hurt him so much. He was uneducated, likely a middle-school dropout, fired from a job, had a record and had "bad vibes". Who'd hire him? Can you understand why Jin was doomed into having to survive as a criminal? Society decided he was meant to fail years before he did fail. So much of BNHA is about people falling into traps of pre-determined outcomes. Jin's tragically so.

Imperfection (read: ← )

[laarbybarbtbox]

New update to my My Hero Academia au! This is a suicide squad/task force x style plotline where the Hero Public Safety Commission “recruits” inmates and patients to do covert missions. That definitely seems like smth they’d do in canon ngl.

Lady Nagant. After being put in Tartarus, Tsutsumi is pretty much put back on the Commission’s list due to her skill. As well as them just being spread thin. She is reluctantly given her job back. And in return, they won’t kill her.

Blizzard. Rei Todoroki, despite not being a pro hero, does have relations to one. And her quirk is deceptively powerful. It’s because of this that the Commission seeked her out. In return for doing their bidding, they’ll “have her discharged early.” At least, that’s what they say.

The Takami Thief. In order to further keep the name “Takami” under wraps, the Commission more or less bought out Hawks’s dad for good measure. In return for a good check and early release, he decidedly couldn’t say no.

Stain. Had the decision to recruit him been public, lets just say there would’ve been controversy. Similar to Nagant, Stain’s recruitment was very reluctant on his part. But on account of All Might being dead, and Stain’s message almost dying with him, Akaguro decided he wasn’t going to die under the Commission’s control. He’ll escape... eventually...

Ending. No recorded documents beyond his criminal record have been found. His recruitment wasn’t exactly “reluctant,” but there’s only one man this villain will willing die to.

The Rapper. He’s not the type to join a big government agency. But his allegiance was sworn once he was beaten in a fight.

Swordkill. Formerly part of another villain group, Swordkill was recruited in return for early release and nothing more. Money isn’t what this villain is after.

Gentle Criminal and La Brava. A duo of criminals and youtubers, in return for an early release and the reinstatement of their channel, the Commission believed they were worth recruiting.
