[Lady Nagant adopting/kidnapping baby Hawks from the Hero Commision AU]
Touya [frowning]: My dad doesn't want me to be a hero anymore.
Takami: Do you wanna be a hero?
Touya: Yes!
Takami: Then why don't you?
Touya [looking down]: I want to aim for number one cuz my dad always wanted me to beat All Might...but now---
Takami: You do realize that the listing thing for heroes is crap right? The Hero Commision literally does it to keep the public pliant and the heroes fighting for publicity instead of doing their job? At least that's what mom says, all the time.
Touya: What?
Takami [leaning closer]: My adoptive mom, Lady Nagant always talks about it. The Hero Commision I mean. She says they suck and so does the hero ranking system.
Takami [grinning]: Wanna hear about it?
Touya [eyes wide and smile slowly growing]: Tell me everything.
Hawks having a giant nest on the roof made of blankets and fluffy pillows and him eventually showing it to Tokoyami as a sign of trust and them ending up falling as sleep in it while the rest of Hawks staff panic and scramble to find them.

Touya wiped the sweat from his brow looking out over the crowd in the sold out stadium, "so it's about that time in the show when the rest of the band gets to wimp out and take a little break while I play some acoustic songs,"
The crowd cheers and laughs as his bandmates pelt him with empty water bottles and towels voicing their disapproval as they leave the stage, "boo me all you want, I'm right!"
"As if you don't love having the stage to yourself, fucking diva," Spinner jokes, Touya filps him off in response.
"Anyway, normally I like to ask you guys what songs you want to hear but a certain stab happy princess,"
Toga reappears on the side of the stage, posing a little for the audience in case they didn't know who he was implying.
"Has made a request that I can't refuse for the sake of mine and everyone else's sanity," Touya jokes, rolling his eyes at the little kiss Toga blows his way. "Now I don't know if she's just trying to push the gay agenda or if she just really likes to remind people that I'm an avid Tay Haste fan."
The crowd erupts with cheers, it's not often they do covers on tour but their Haste covers were well loved by their fans, so Touya didn't really mind when Toga had requested they song; A little apprehensive since when the others rarely made request and they'd all seemed rather …chipper? When he'd argued to this one.
Ugh he's starting to sound as paranoid as Shiggy claims he is.
"Quit stalling lover boy!," Toga heckles.
"I can still change m mind ya know," Touya throws back, finally sitting with his guitar in hand. Toga ignores his empty threat.
"Well, you guys ready then?" He started strumming the first notes as the crowd cheered, "Our secret moments, in a crowded room…"
Touya couldn't help that his mind wandered to Keigo everytime he played this song, maybe that's why Toga picked it. A hopeless romantic through and through. And yeah he couldn't deny it fit him and Keigo a little too well.
When they first met (no buzz cut and Touyas hair box dyed black thank you very much) Keigo's management were keeping him on a short leash, saying he needed to portray the image of a ditzy flirt, easy but unattainable. The only time he was to be seen with others would be for pre approved contracted relationships that furthered his career.
Him falling head over tail feathers for the grungy reject of the Todoroki clan was definitely not going to fly. Touya returning those feelings and doing his best to break the pretty bird from his gilded cage didn't help either.
The years they had been forced to keep their relationship quiet had been miserable. Showing up to events separately, sneaking behind the scenes to properly congratulate each other, only being able to refer to each other as 'good friends' when the public saw how close they were.
"There is an indentation, in the shape of you," Touya grins to himself as he sings, "you made your mark on me a golden tattoo."
He'd taken Keigo to get his first tattoo the day his contract ended. Celebrating Keigo's new freedom and going public with their relationship the same day, to very mixed reviews.
Their loyal fans supported them wholeheartedly, having already guessed at their relationship from nearly the beginning, with a creepy amount of stalker like evidence and Touyas own lyrics to back up their claims.
Others hated that Touya, strung-out talentless nepo baby Touya, was tainting their golden boy.
It had only taken one interview with a newly freed Keigo absolutely gushing about Touya for them to realize their criticism would be falling on deaf ears.
"Now I woke up just in time, now I wake up by your side," Touya grins, really getting into the song at this point. Who could blame him when flashes of Keigo sleep rumbled hiding from the sun in their bed flashes through his mind, "my one and only, my life line."
Out of the corner of his eye he sees Compress sneaking across the stage, probably trying to get some videos for their socials. Touya can't deny how well videos of him simping do, almost as well as their unofficial band mascot, Mon-chans.
Fuck it, it's not like he ever wanted to hide his love he belts out the little 'ah, ah, ahs' silencing his guitar for the next part, "Say my name and everything just stops…"
"Touya."
His breath catches in his throat as Keigo's voice whispers his name over the stadium speakers.
Years of practice and performing did nothing to save him from stumbling over the next line as he tries to get his heart back to a normal rhythm, "I don't want you like a best friend."
The crowd erupts in cheers, almost as stunned as Touya.
So thats what those fuckers were up to. Oh god they definitely got a video of his face doing something stupid.spirits they would be teasing him about this for months.
Touya wonders if he can get a version of the song with Keigos voice in it for himself. He'd never be able to hear the song another way now.
Tokoyami: Do you think killing people is okay if necessary Keigo-senpai?
Hawks [typing away on his computer]: Yeah sure. I mean why not.
Hawks: *noticing Tokoyami's contemplating look*
Hawks: I mean no. Of course not. Absolutely not a good thing to do, at all. Never, ever. But of you do haaaappen to kill someone for the riiiiight reasons you let me know so I can handle the body.
Tokoyami:........
Tokoyami: Senpai, sometimes I forget the number the hero commision has done on you.
Hawks:......
Hawks: Yeah, you and me both.
I love me a Hawks who legit does crime for the greater good only to later take a pause and go "Yeah okay, that was messed up." But then immediately follow it up with "But what did they want me to do, not save those people." Because he legit has learned no other skill from his hero commision parents than fucked up shit to save hero society.
Tokoyami: What if I turned into a villain?
Hawks: Aw, you'd have the cutest mugshot.
Tokoyami [very pleased with himself]: Thank you Hawks-san.
[Hospital]
Lady Nagant: You don't have to visit me you know.
Hawks: I'm not visiting you. I barely know you. I'm here to see Tokoyami.
[Next Week]
Lady Nagant: You're not here to visit me this time either I suppose?
Hawks: Nop, just here to see the Todoroki family.
[Week after]
Lady Nagant [smirking]: Let me guess-
Hawks [fluffing up her pillows and handing her water]: Not here to see you. Just here to check up on Midoriya.
Lady Nagant:.....
Hawks: What?
Lady Nagant [ruffling his hair]: I'm going to be okay Takami. You don't have to worry so much about me.
Hawks [fixing his hair and avoiding eye contact]: I'm not worried. Like I said, I barely know you.
Lady Nagant [with the softest smile]: Of course not, my mistake.
