I've started to write a fic during the Jump Festa when I was bummed out how Shouto's VA wasn't invited. The fact that Anime Japan panel was the same, gave me the push to finish this fic. (Which is a 5k vent-fic in a way).

uninvited by class1akids (BrusselsSprout)

(G, GEN, 5k)

"After that disaster, the HPSC press director gave Shouto a call, kindly explaining how he would not be invited this year. It was a new era, an era of national rebuilding, of forming new bonds between society and its celebrity, baby-faced heroes. The Symbols of Victory and Hope, the Twin Stars of Japan, who did not share blood with villains and disgraced former heroes. It was not personal, Shouto was a great hero as long as he kept his head down and did his job in the background. But Japan had no need for a “Todoroki” to be in the spotlight."

Or

Shouto is not invited to the yearly hero gala.

Dabi and Himiko getting into the habit of dressing each other up is such a cute idea to think about. Dabi's body and face has a feminine edge to it, inheriting not just Rei's ice proof body but also her features, that when he was a teen on the street many creeps actually thought he was a girl. Dabi made sure they were barbecued when they made the mistake of trying to touch him. He would be the type not to really care even if people mistake him for a girl. In fact, I think he'd have fun messing with the other person while they'd be none the wiser. Himiko, on the other hand, has a shape shifting quirk. Cross dressing has always been the norm for her, but she wasn't able to do it for fun. It was only when they were in a new base and found a closet worth of new clothes where she got to explore that stuff. While she does like the flowy skirts and puffy sleeves she normally wears, she also finds herself enjoying the clear cut silhouette that wearing a suit or the soft feel of a dress shirt against her skin entails.

Anyways, the two would often swap tips and such, even going as far as making Dabi wear a wig when they dressed him enough that even Shigaraki didn't recognize him. (The wig was white. Dabi stared at the mirror for almost an hour, remembering the ice cold touch of a woman that broke under the pressure.) They had fun messing with the members of the PLF that day, no one knowing who the flirty white haired menace was and being generally horny and confused. On another random day, Himiko decided to wear one of her more masculine clothes just for funsies, but she decides to wear it more often when they accidentally came across a bunch of 1-A kids while her and Dabi was looking for a good boba shop. /No, Toga. I'm not drinking any more of that diabetes inducing shit. We're finding you real food./ She saw Ochako, and immediately left her a blushing mess with just some light teasing. The poor girl didn't know what part of the outfit she should first appreciate, it looks so, so good on Himiko. Dabi sees the two, and immediately walks out of the shop, not wanting to be a third wheel to that mess.

Now, just imagine, Hawks just finishing his 12 hour patrol and landing on the League base looking for some reprieve. He opens the door, and immediately hears a very familiar voice shouting. "Who the fuck took my bra? Spinner if you're using it again as your sleeping mask then know it's your death day." The shout was followed by a giggling Himiko pushing Hawks aside and running through the door, bra in hand. The hero still doesn't know what he's seeing when a very dishevelled Dabi in an office skirt - very much shirtless- comes tumbling down the stairs, hands busy with fixing the wig he was wearing. He sees Hawks on the door, and freezes. Then, a smile so sweet it makes every danger sense the commission instilled in him ping, Hawks wanting to turn around and follow wherever Himiko ran off to. Because that's the face of a predator finding his prey. And as Dabi struts towards him slowly, face smirking, Hawks finds himself unable to deny playing with fire once again.

~MY HERO ACADEMIA FIC RECS PART 2~

appassionato (for a halcyon winter) by bonnia (oneshot // 29k)

“That boy…” His mother gives him a tired smile. “The music he plays is incredibly sad, isn’t it?” Shouto blinks, because Bakugou’s music has never made him feel anything but an inexplicable feeling of freedom. But that’s the beauty of it, he supposes — that the meaning of music lies in the ears of its beholder. “I don’t know,” he answers honestly. “But I think it’s beautiful.” (or: todoroki shouto is a pianist who had sworn never to play the piano again, and bakugou katsuki is the unpredictable maelstrom of a violinist who turns his monotonous world upside down)

TW: Vague descriptions of terminal illnesses and child abuse.

Genre: Angst, Hurt/Comfort

TODOBAKU, AU: No Quirks, Todoroki Shouto-centric

The FEELS. Oh shit, they hit me like a truck. I cried while watching Your Lie In April and I cried while reading this. I am in love with this fic and the idea of musicians!todobaku occupies my brain 24/7.

2. Alcohol Speaks Louder Than Words by CelticMoone (incomplete // currently at 6k)

“I don’t think so,” his dad said, wiping his chin with the back of his palm to rid himself of the dribble of wine that fell from his lips. “And why the hell not? You feeling threatened?” Katsuki challenged. Hitoshi was sure he was delirious at this point. There was no way in hell he was sitting in his father’s home, listening to Katsuki drunkenly argue for his hand in marriage. That just didn’t compute. Damn, he’d really have to apologize to Denki for all the times he’d teased him for frying his brain. Hitoshi now knew exactly what it felt like and, man, oh man, was it literal torture. “I shouldn’t be the one afraid of threats, Bakugo. If you so much as lay an unholy finger on my son I will make sure your life is a living hell.” His father’s words were chilling. His face sported a less than comforting grin, hands folded neatly under his chin. OR Katsuki and Hitoshi get married whilst drunk, much to Aizawa's chagrin. Come join my brainrot in attempts to see how this will play out :)

3. To Watch You Fall (is a beautiful thing) by ChaoticHeart (complete // 62k, 10 chapters)

Aizawa has witnessed many relationships bloom over the course of his years teaching at U.A. In the end, whether these relationships last or not doesn’t matter to him. He has never been invested in the romantic endeavors of his students, and it’s easier to view their relationships with a sense of detachment, knowing that many of them will inevitably crash and burn. They’re all so young- they’ll get it right eventually, he would say to himself. But this… this is Hitoshi they’re talking about, and suddenly, like a switch being thrown, Aizawa finds himself caring all too much about the personal lives of his students. He never thought he’d be in a position to watch his adopted son slowly fall in love (with Class 1-A’s resident gremlin, of all people), yet here he is.

TW: Implied/Referenced Child Abuse

Genre: Fluff, Romance

SHINBAKU, minor/background ERASERMIC, Outsider POV

This was such a satisfying ride. Although it is outsider POV (Aizawa's), it all feels very clear. I love how EraserMic are polar opposites lol. The fic came together beautifully and I loved the slow descent of how Shinsou and Bakugou got together (though maybe Aizawa was getting a bit impatient-).

5. Motivation to a Realization by NeonBlackRoseRevived (oneshot // 5k)

It's common for first years in the Heroics course at U.A to write a mandatory essay on how and why they would become a villain. No, this is not some attempt and making sure there are no traitors, and no this is not done to discriminate between quirks. This essay is used to get future heroes thinking about what-if's that could make or break them. This is for future heroes to know what to do, what to expect if one ever deflects or something else happens to make them become villains. Bakugou doesn't want to write this stupid essay, but like hell, he's going to get himself kicked out of the Heroics course for not completing it.

Hoo, boy. That's a heavy list. In all fairness though, it's not very graphic but I have to say this fic mentions some awful events. Not everyone's cup of tea but it summed up Bakugou's character very well. The writing was top-notch as well.

Todoroki's voice dies out as he watches small flecks of rainbow dance across Bakugou’s face as the chain swings slowly. They’re everywhere, the small rainbows—they’re tucking themselves into the lips of Bakugou’s smile, splattering across his cheekbones like freckles dipped in stardust.

He can’t take his eyes off of Bakugou.

“It’s just a suncatcher,” Bakugou explains, face flushing red.

“It makes rainbows,” Todoroki murmurs.

Canines and felines, and the friendship in between, a DabiHawks oneshot ~

note: this started out as a little drabble, but since it became almost 2K words, I crossposted it to ao3, so if you prefer to read it there, you can find it here! as always, thanks for reading, and leaving a like or letting me know what you think is always welcome, I always want to get better!

Dabi always thought of himself as a cat person.

Now, this was more of a guess than anything, as he hadn't really had the chance to interact much with any sort of animals growing up, but it seemed to make sense to him.

Cats were knows to be aloof, stubborn, quiet and sly, and that wasn't too far from the reputation Dabi had garnered for himself over the years.

Every single member of the League had even pointed it out at some point, so yeah.

Dabi did indeed think of himself as a cat person.

Which was why it was ironic that he was currently crouched out the ground, in icy rain of a dark back alley, trying his best to lure out a raggedy looking creature he was fairly sure to be a dog.

Dabi had been stalking trough the dark back alley in an attempt to find a shortcut to the League's base, being in an extra rush because of the rain, when he heard it.

A tiny whimper from an old card-box squeezed under a garbage can.

Listen, Dabi was aware of his villain status, and yes, it was based on very true facts.

But he wasn't heartless, and even though he would never admit it out loud, he had two weaknesses; children and animals.

So, naturally, he carefully crouched down to try to get a peek inside said box.

It was hard to get a proper look at whatever was inside, but based on the noises it made, Dabi was willing to bet it was some sort of dog.

A real terrified dog.

At first Dabi tried to lure it out with words and coos, but he quickly realized his voice didn't quite have that softness it needed, and he realized he might have to be creative about this.

Goddamn it, he should just be on his way.

Go to the base, have a beer, watch some TV with Twice and Mister, maybe watch Spinner pretend to loose in a video game to Shigaraki, all under a roof, in dry clothes.

Yep.

That's what he should do.

So why was he still sitting here?

Another quiet mix between a whimper and a growl broke him out of his train of thoughts, and he decided then and there he wasn't gonna give up on this.

If only to prove himself capable of doing so.

As a cold shiver ran down his spine, the villain suddenly got an idea.

He held out his palm and conjured up a small flame, making sure to make it give off lots of heat.

Pretty soon a small nose and two huge, round black eyes were visible trough the darkness, and with a little more patience the tiny creature came creeping out of the box it was hidden in.

It was small, smaller than Dabi expected, but its giant ears made it look bigger than it really was. Its eyes were also huge, but besides that, there wasn't much to it.

The little fur it had was matted and dirty, and when Dabi finally lured the little creature close enough to touch, it basically collapsed in his hands when it felt the heat he was giving off.

It didn't weigh much, probably not much more than a small cat, and Dabi felt a strange need to hold it close, but thought the better off it as he didn't want to risk spooking the thing into biting him.

But suddenly he was faced with another problem;

Where the fuck would he take this thing?

Back to the base was out of the question, Twice and Toga would probably go into overdrive and scare the dog accidentally, and based on the way he was currently treating the League, Dabi knew Shigaraki had a habit of getting overly attached to things without meaning to, and the absolute last thing the League needed was a dog.

The vet was out of he question in fear of them just putting the creature down for not having an owner, and then there was really only one option left.

God fucking damn it.

~

As he stood outside the door to the big, fancy apartment, Dabi began to question himself for what felt like the millionth time that night.

The only reason he knew where the hero lived was for business reasons, and he never planned on actually going there.

But now he heard the shuffling of a person on the other side, and suddenly he had to deal with his choice.

The door opened, and if it weren't for the worry he was feeling for the thing in his arms, Dabi would have laughed out loud at shocked look on Hawks' face.

The winged hero looked the villain up and down for a quick second, before he grabbed his arm and yanked him inside.

"Dude, I know I said I wanted to be friendly with you, but-"

"Shut the fuck up, Birdie."

Dabi quickly shut down the tangent the hero was getting at, and before Hawks had the chance to say something else, the dog Dabi was holding made a small noise again.

Hawks' eyes widened, and he quietly gestured for Dabi to show him, which he reluctantly did.

"Oh..." Hawks mumbled, and shot a look at Dabi the villain didn't quite understand, but when Hawks moved to take the dog out of his arms, Dabi quickly withdrew.

"Erhm... If you want me to help I kinda need to look at him, Hotshot," Hawks said carefully, and Dabi huffed.

"Yeah, okay, just... careful," he mumbled, and Hawks nodded.

As the hero lifted the small dog out of his arms, Dabi realized this was the first time he had seen the hero out of his uniform, and the difference was... kind of shocking.

The big coat and baggy pants paired with the wings made the hero appear much bigger than he really was, but the white knitted sweater and loose sweatpants made him look... young.

And short.

The hero was really fucking short.

Huh.

Dabi's train of thoughts came to a sudden halt as he realized Hawks was trying to talk to him.

"Hello, earth to arsonist?" the hero asked, waving a hand in front of the villains face.

Dabi slapped the others hand away, and asked him to repeat his question.

"I was saying," Hawks started, while carefully petting the dogs head.

"That it looks like you both need showers. You can use the bathroom by the guest room, and I can use the tub in mine to warm this guy up."

Dabi rolled his eyes.

"Of course you got two bathrooms."

Hawks winked.

"Obviously."

~

When Dabi finally exited the bathroom, wearing Hawks' slightly too short sweatpants and a thankfully baggy t-shirt, he felt like a new person.

It had been a long time since he had a shower like that.

As he entered the living room again, he found that Hawks had already sat down on the floor in front of the fireplace with the now clean dog in front of him, making these strange chittering noises to the little creature, who did in turn seem to love it.

"So, what are you two talking about?" Dabi asked in a bored tone, carefully sitting down opposite of the hero.

"You," Hawks said with a small smile as he looked up at the villain.

When the hero looked up at him, he once again got that look on his face, a soft, kind of unreadable look, and Dabi felt like an unknown sort of awkwardness and had to look away.

"Only bad things, I hope?" he asked dryly, and the hero laughed out loud.

"Naturally," he answered, and Dabi smiled a little, looking down at the dog.

When he carefully reached out his hand to let the dog smell him, the dog took him by surprise and bounced over to him, eagerly trying to climb into his lap.

Dabi took the opportunity to get in some pets and scratches, and got a good look at the little guy.

It's eyes were huge, and the ears reminded him of a gremlin, but its fur was pretty decent, a dark brown with a white belly and paws, longer than a short haired dog, but not quite long, either.

It's tail was wagging like crazy and it was shaking a little, but it didn't seem to be in any distress.

It was quite ugly, but in a very endearing way.

Or whatever.

"He doesn't seem to have any injuries, but he needs a lot of food, warmth and safety," Hawks said carefully, looking at Dabi with searching eyes.

Dabi sighed.

"So you're saying I should give him, what, to a shelter? What if they put him down?!"

Hawks eyes widened a bit, but he shook his head slowly.

"Not necessarily," he said thoughtfully, but before he could continue, a strange sound came from somewhere behind the hero, who turned around with a big smile.

"Sock!" he exclaimed, and Dabi figured the hero had finally lost it.

But just as he was about to say so, he realized there was something moving around the hero, something elegant and purring; a cat.

A big, shorthaired grey cat, with huge blue eyes, a big chip in its left ear and a very long tail.

Dabi blinked.

"Cat," he said, intelligently.

Hawks huffed out a laugh.

"Yes Dabi, very good. This is a cat," he said, drawing out the final word.

Dabi shot him a look, and Hawks just grinned back at him.

The cat stayed next to Hawks as he calmly stroked along its back, and the small dog stayed in front of Dabi, eyeing the cat curiously.

"What... What am I supposed to do with this?" Dabi finally asked, looking down at the little dog in front of him, petting his head carefully, watching his tail wag happily.

Hawks looked at them both for a while.

"He could stay here," Hawks began, and Dabi raised an eyebrow.

"But!" Hawks added quickly, and Dabi gestured for him to go on.

"I obviously don't have time to take care of him full time. So, the offer only stands if you take care of him when I work long shifts."

Dabi averted his eyes.

"So you're suggesting shared custody?" Dabi asked dryly, and Hawks nodded with a grin.

"Yep!" The hero exclaimed with a quick nod, before he went on.

"And since I am often gone for more than 12 hours, you can use the guest room."

Dabi eyed the hero with a slightly confused look.

"Is this your way of asking me to movie in with you, Birdbrain?"

Hawks beamed.

"Yep! At least for the time being."

Dabi rolled his eyes, but actually stopped to think about it.

It... wasn't that bad of an idea.

He could keep an eye on the hero, get some good intel, snoop around, and keep an eye on the dog at the same time.

"Fine."

Hawks snickers.

"You don't have to sound so defeated, this is strictly voluntarily."

Dabi waved his hand.

"Yeah, yeah," he muttered, and looked over at the hero again.

The cat, Sock, (what an insane name, geez) had moved closer to the dog, and they were both looking at each other curiously, carefully getting close enough to sniff each other.

The noise Hawks made was somewhere between a squeal and a chirp, which was enough to get both the pets to look at him with big worried eyes, before Sock hurried over to his owner to ensure he wasn't dying, and the dog hurried over to Dabi to hide in his lap.

When he was done snickering, Dabi looked at Hawks with a thoughtful expression.

"Dogs needs names, right?" he asked, more as a statement than a question.

Hawks lit up with an idea.

"Shoe!" he all but yelled, looking like he just figured out the hardest puzzle ever.

Dabi stared at the hero for a while, waiting for him to admit to the joke.

He didn't.

"Shoe," Dabi repeated slowly.

"You want to name the dog 'Shoe'."

Hawks nodded and pointed to the cat.

"Sock and Shoe!" he grinned, and Dabi rolled his eyes so hard he almost fell backwards.

"Over my dead body," he said curtly, and Hawks shrugged with a smile.

"That can be arranged," the hero quipped, and Dabi scowled at him, before rolling his eyes again, trying not to smile.

The pair sat in silence for a while, quietly watching the dog and cat interact with each other.

When Dabi looked up at Hawks again after a while, he realized he's never seen the other look quite so happy and serene, ever.

"I didn't take you for a cat person," Dabi said, watching as the hero reached to and booped the nose of the grey cat playfully.

Hawks chuckled.

"Well, I didn't take you for a dog person, either, so I'd say we're even."

Dabi felt a small smile overtake his face before he could stop it.

"I guess we're even, then," he said.

Hawks hummed in agreement.

"I guess we are."

Trial AU: "TDRKvTDRK" / The people v Endeavour

Either for a post-war trial of the people v Endeavour or to determine if Rei is able to live unsupervised or if she's a fit guardian to Shouto. They would need to determine if there was abuse towards her and/or the kids in either case.

-Endeavour's argument during his testimony being "it was training", "in order to become nro1 hero/what he was meant(created) to be" and some people siding with him since "he's perfect to become a hero, it'd be a waste of talent otherwise, of his quirk, his fast judgement, his training, the kid should just keep going!"

-And Shouto's lawyer response being "so that means it's ok to raise all kids with strong quirks to be heroes? (some Hawks parallels)" "Train them as soon as we find out! Take them from their childhood and family and instead of a kindergarten send them to a hero factory!" "Because as long as they become perfect heroes it doesn't matter if they are kids." and they get close and holds Endeshit's eyes "Isn't that right, Endevour-san?"Reminds me of Snowpiercer "As long as it's beneficial to our society the sacrifices don't matter" kind of mentality.

-Imagine the media asking heroes what they think about the allegations. And Hawks smile suddenly turning serious and answering with hints about this being covered up for years without explicitly saying it. 

And Endeshit's sidekicks being all "as long as Endeshit does the work perfectly it's not our business" Most heroes opting for a "no comment". Some reflect on their colleagues and how they view them until now. Others are aware this wasn't the first case and are sure won't be the last no matter the outcome. WWP coming out regretting not having being able to realise despite being in charge on people's safety "80% of our rescues are kids, be it from disasters, accidents or domestic calls involving villains". "Kids are strong, most time, the adults are the ones that need more reassurance from us, when kids see a hero they immediately feel rescued, safe, they follow our instructions as soon as they call down" "We heroes are supposed to inspire that feeling, our presence should evoque safety even before starting the actual rescue" "For a kid to not only see their father as danger, but a hero, the Nro1 Hero as a threat to that safety... is something that will not only destroy everything we have worked on as Pro Heroes but will came up every time we see a kid light up when we arrive in their rescue"

-Then Shouto's testimony; being asked about his routine, his training, diet, education, his relationships with his friends, with his mother and how he saw her, with his siblings. By his lawyer and then by Endeavour's lawyer. "How was your relationship with your siblings?"; "Non-existent" "What's the closest you remember being to them" "I saw them once" "they were playing with a ball on the yard, I was being dragged to training" "Touya-nii fell and Natsuo-nii was laughing at him, Fuyumi-nee and the housemaid were worried" "I asked Fa-Endevour to join them but he say no" "Did he say why?" "Objection hearsay!" "Denied" "Did Mr.Endevour say why?" Not looking up, in a soft voice he repeated mechanically "They are failures, don't get close to them" -Can you describe what happened that night?" 

“Until recently I'd only remember her crying, her words at her breaking point" "...then I started remembering her words, her reassurance "It's ok to become who you want to become" 

and then they get to the scar incident, which at this point everyone was speculating was Endeavour's training fault, another cover-up. And then the defendant lawyer starts "it was your own mother who hurt you wasn't it?" and Shouto is visibly mad "she is the one who burnt your face, am I wrong?" "and that's the only burn scar you have isn't it?" and Shouto glaring "that's the only scar with medical records, since an ambulance was called" and either then or on redirect Shouto's feed up and determinated "where's my scar?"

"She was talking on the phone about needing to leave, she was asking her mother for help, in the middle of the night, in desperate whispers, and then, as soon as she turned she saw red peeking from the door" "the terror on her face as she grabbed that boiling water while her her whole body was shaking its marred deeper into me than any scar" Shouto shifting his eyes from the lawyer to Endevour "And of that, he is responsible."

aaaand tw going nuts cause Shouto is saying an abused mother was so on the edge she saw red hair and blue eyes and reacted in fear, thinking her 6yo son was her abusive husband.  #wheresmyscar is trending Bakugo

Imagine if Endeshit trial happened when they grew up (which would happen if it was Shouto who wanted to press charges since he'd need to be over 20yo, to testify tho there's no age restrictions I think) Class 1-A are already pro heroes and Bkg goes in as a witness to "needlessly" prove the point that "Shouto is a victim". Cause the other lawyers would be like "Pro Hero Shouto, best grades, best results, best hero, where's the flaw? What was the consequence of this alleged "abuse"? being the best? My client was the best and trained the best hero, and it shows!" And then Bkg goes into detail on how being "classmates" with Sho allowed him to be the expert in identifying abuse victims he is today 

"and also" Bkg ending his speech "Endeshit wasn't the best, All Might is, he just turned up to be the asshole who abused the kid who would end up being the best on his own, and he shouldn't get too comfortable just cause I spend a few months in USA, I'll be taking that title soon" and then when sho's on the stand he's asked about what he thought about Bkg's testimony "it's weird how he still doesn't notice we are friends even when he sees everything else" Shouto's lawyer

Imagine their protectiveness towards a child, a 15yo who had given up on justice but is willing to make this step regardless. They'd be so fucking honored to be in charge of this case but under so much pressure, not only cause it's The Trial of the current Nro1 hero that'd change all their society's views on Pro Heroes, but because of his client, this kid's trust in them is the biggest and heaviest responsability they've ever carried, and they will make sure to get them justice and hope.I need their first time meeting Shouto and their first impressions, the revelation of how big this case is, Aizawa being the one briefing them before being introduced to Shouto. 

Endeshit

Endeavor would be combative and deny everything; corruption, propaganda, Endeavor’s side trying to depict Shouto as an exaggerating rebellious teen, a liar, using the Sport Festival as an example "he just wanted to make his father mad! a victim wouldn't take that risk!" totally not taking into account that Shouto wouldn't consider making Endeavour mad a risk but just part of his daily life, especially since there's no one else who would get hurt as collateral damage, and he's used to being hurt. 

All Might testifying, recounting his meeting with Endeshit at the Sports Festival and his regret on not seeing it sooner, his failure. -I need corruption, old and new cover-ups attempts, hero&villains propaganda, paparazzi following Shouto and his siblings, reporters surrounding Rei's hospital freaking Shouto out when they try to barge into her room and making him question if all this was worth it.

-I need jury reactions, a judge that controls both sides and is polite, Shouto's lawyer feeling this case close, Endeavour's lawyers being at the top of the chain and having a reputation.

-I need the public response, on the news, on twitter/blogs, paparazzi.

And the news portraying Shouto "not being social" "unfriendly and giving off an arrogant vibe" "expressionless and impossible to read".   Mainstream media covering it while being biased, hyperfocusing on the heroes v villains implications. While tw/blogs/yt being like "how tf are they so blind" while analysing Shouto's and Endeavour's answers and behaviours.

-I need doctors' and/or nurses' recits and secret notes.

And the maid who used to take care of the Todoroki children, and had stopped making their meals because of a back injury, being a surprise witness.

(G, GEN, 3K, 1/1)

Half a year after the final war, Todoroki Shouto turns 17. Celebrations in the Todoroki family are complicated. But do they need to be?

5+1 things, as the family prepares to share a table for the first time since the events of the final war.

For once, I managed to finish a birthday fic on time for Shouto!

I'm Finally Me

Written for DabiHawks Week 2023 Day 1 Prompt: Genderswap Fandom: BNHA Characters: Dabi, Hawks Words: 1007 Summary: Hawks never felt right in his body. How could he? It was the wrong one. Then one day Hawks wakes up and his body felt different. . .it felt right. Featuring FTM Hawks

“Ugh my body feels weird,” Hawks complained as he flew through the sky, landing in his apartment.

“Welcome home Birdie,” Dabi greeted, wearing an apron as he cooked the two dinners. If Hawks’s meat was too undercooked well who was he to judge?

“Hey Dabs,” Hawks greeted with a yawn, walking over to the kitchen to steal a few bites of food as Dabi swatted at his hand.

“Stop trying to steal bites! It’ll be ready in a few minutes. Go change,” Dabi ordered as Hawks sighed and walked into their bedroom, getting a change of clothes. Finding one of Dabi’s oversized t-shirts he unclipped his binder, a specialty ordered one that was made with his wings involved, put on the t-shirt, and put on a pair of sweat pants.

When Dabi first started staying here he never wanted to take his binder off, scared that his body would scare the scared man away, but Dabi just loved him more. Telling him how manly he was, how handsome he was. Never calling him things like cute and pretty. It made Hawks preen for the attention.

Now after living together for over a year, he’s gotten comfortable being without his binder. Dabi never pointed out how he looked without still calling him handsome. The first time it happened Hawks cried tears of joy. No one ever treated him the way Dabi did. All he ever had was the commission who only let him have the binder because they thought that the public would be more accepting of a male hero than a female one. It made him want to throw up.

Rumi didn’t even know what he was going through every day. Just assumed that he was born a male at birth and while it brought a smile to his face sometimes he wanted to yell at her to not be happy. That he’s feeling like shit because of the actual real weight on his chest.

Dabi, he never had to think about it. If he was feeling like shit he could just tell him why and Dabi understood. It made him happy. It ruined his position within the league. He tried, but he couldn’t work fully for the commission, not after he realized how wrong they all are about what a hero is.

“Are you doing okay?” Dabi asked, setting the plate of food down on the coffee table as he sat down on the couch, looking towards Hawks.

“Yeah. My body just feels weird. Nothing really out of the ordinary for me,” Hawks shrugged as Dabi frowned at him.

“You’re allowed to be sad or upset about it you know?” Dabi asked, taking a bite of his food.

“Yeah I know, but it just seems pointless sometimes. I know that it won’t change anything so I can either push it to the back of my mind or feel sorry for myself,” Hawks shrugged, taking a bite of the food, as Dabi glared at him.

“Just be upset for once okay?” Dabi asked.

“Yeah, when I have the time,” Hawks promised.

The two quickly finished eating before heading to bed, Dabi holding Hawks in his arms, as he told Hawks how wonderful and perfect he was. If it brought a few tears to his eyes and made him sleep a little bit better well who was he to complain.

The next morning Hawks awoke first. He still smiled every time he woke up to see Dabi still laying in the bed, meaning he stayed. It was so much better than when they first got together, Dabi never staying the full night. Always waiting till Hawks fell asleep before leaving.

Feeling sleepy still, he yawned as he walked to the bathroom, bringing his clothes with him to get ready for his day at work.

Taking off his shirt he looked in the mirror only to blink a few times before putting his hand on his chest. His chest was extremely flat. Now being more awake he moved his boxers and looked inside before looking in the mirror again.

Suddenly a full-blown smile was on his face as he ran towards the bedroom screaming in happiness.

“Dabi! Dabi wake up!” Hawks yelled running into the room as the fire user rubbed the sleep out of his eyes.

“It’s too early in the morning for this bird boy,” Dabi groaned.

Hawks, in his excitement, ignored the fire user's complaints as he grabbed his hand and put it to his chest.

“That’s nice birdie,” Dabi said, slipping back into the land of sleep.

Hawks rolled his eyes before an evil gleam formed its way into his eye. Placing Dabi’s hand in his pants the man's eyes went wide and awake.

“You have a-” Dabi said, yanking his hand away, fully awake now.

“Yep,” Hawks smiled, shaking his head up and down.

“You’re a-” Dabi asked as Hawks once again shook his head yes.

“Hawks- Keigo! This is amazing! How did this happen?” Dabi asked, an actual smile on his face.

“I don’t know! I got hit with a quirk yesterday but I was warned that it wouldn’t really do anything bad,” Hawks smiled.

“Wait does this mean it’s not permanent?” Dabi asked, a sad smile forming on both of their faces.

“Nope, I was told about the quirk beforehand. It was done by a child, it was an accident and all. It’s called wish maker. It causes someone's wish to be fulfilled. Since wishes are often things that can’t be undone they are permanent unless asked specifically to be limited,” Hawks explained.

“Well, Birdie this causes for celebration. How about me and you have a day in?” Dabi asked, a smile on his face.

“We can do anything?” Hawks asked, a smile on his face.

“Anything and everything,” Dabi agreed as Hawks smiled, kissing the scared man in a body that finally felt right. In a body that was finally his. A body that made him the happiest man alive, because a man is what he is and always has been.

~MY HERO ACADEMIA FIC RECS PART 1~

If I die (will you be the one to push me off the roof ?) by Hoco_Koen (oneshot // 5k)

Bakugou Katsuki is many things, but he's not a liar. So when they ask : "Did you tell Midoriya to kill himself ?" When they ask, he says yes.

TW: Major Character Death, Suicide, Bullying, Stalking, Abuse, Murder.

Genre: Hurt No Comfort, Angst

Bakugou Katsuki-centric.

This was so deliciously sad, oh my god. Beautifully written and had a very bittersweet tone to it throughout the fic. The ending made me openly gasp and a complete 10/10.

2. Our echoes, they are deafening by underfallingstars (oneshot // 6k)

“Shinsou, I dare you to kiss the most attractive person in the room.” Bakugou knows Shinsou would choose him, if he gave him the chance. He doesn't.

No TWs Apply.

Genre: Hurt/Comfort

Ships: Shinbaku (Shinsou Hitoshi/Bakugou Katsuki)

This?? was so cute?? A bit angsty, a bit sweet. Made my heart throb, I loved it.

3. stitch me up by kae_karo (twoshot // 36k)

Much to his chagrin, both- what, halves? It’s as good a term as any, he supposes. Both halves of Todoroki stand side by side, staring at him in the most irritating and unnerving way. -- todo gets split into his two quirk halves and katsuki has to Deal With It

No TWs Apply.

Genre: Light Angst, Fluff

TodoBaku.

Absolutely brilliant. Idea? Brilliant. Execution? Brilliant. As a todobaku enthusiast, this hit the EXACT spots that needed to be hit. 10/10, will read again. The way both the halfs were portrayed was utter GENIUS.

4. Tales of unlikely brotherhood by mentallypapaya (Incomplete // currently at 6k)

Five times the class didn't get the Kacchan-Deku dynamic, and the one time they started figuring it out. // "So that was fucking weird, right?" Kirishima checked, pointing at the door they'd just left through. The other occupants of the room nodded in agreement. "I don't think I've ever seen those two have a conversation that didn't end in Midoriya's physical health taking a hit before." Todoroki muttered, head tilting to the side. "It is very odd," Tokoyami agreed. "Could that simply be what happens when Bakugou neglects his sleep schedule?" Kaminari shook his head. "I don't think so, we've been with him all day. He's mostly been normal, apart from just ignoring the shit out of us. I think Mido's the first person he actually responded to." "This is so weird," Kirishima reiterated.

No TWs Apply.

Genre: Fluff, 5+1 Things (is that even a genre-?)

Platonic BakuDeku, Bakugou Katsuki-centric, Midoriya Izuku-centric.

There is a lack of platonic bakudeku fics out there, just saying. And this fic is the perfect example of how many more fics we need.

5. lol get rekt endeavor by Saccha (oneshot // 4k)

"How do you feel about your father becoming the number one hero?" "He'll always be number two in my heart." In which Todoroki Touya grows up to be a hero, and channels his anger into pettiness instead of villainy.

TW: Implied/Referenced Child Abuse

Genre: Crack, Light Angst, Humour

Gen, Todoroki Touya-centric.

Beautiful. I love petty characters and this fic filled the petty meter 100%. The angst was also really well-done and ofc, the Todoroki family deserved better. Not Endeavour tho. Burn in hell to him.
