Keep It Cool

Anime: My Hero Academia
Pairing: Hotwings (Dabi (Touya Todoroki) x Hawks (Keigo Takami)
Mentioned: TodoDeku (Shouto Todoroki x Izuku Midoyria)

We're back at it again folks! As I have found, I am Hotwings trash. I just couldn't leave the idea of Touya reconnecting with Rei as an idea.
Let me clear up a few things first, they're able to get by in the world a lot easier since Touya's scars have been healed, people pass him like a normal person since he's pretty separated from his Dabi identity.
As for that Dabi identity, a lot of people think he's in hiding or is straight-up dead, funny how Touya seems to have a habit of faking his death.
Touya has also been learning some techniques from his therapist (this therapist has a mind-reading quirk, haha, how typical, but it's almost like an empathic/mediumship connection, they call the quirk Medium Mind. They're able to read minds as well as past lives (they can read faked deaths as well so they knew Touya was Dabi, they have a heightened sense of emotion reading) about how to build his new identity so that he's not assumed as Dabi, ya know the typical change your hair, change your style, types of things, but he's also learned how to manipulate his voice a bit so he doesn't sound quite like Dabi any more, his tone of voice has also improved drastically since his mental health has.

I might commission my sister to draw me a custom character for this therapist since I really want to fully flesh out their character, just to have.

Sunshine filtered through the windows of the guest bedroom, gently warming the room. Birds chirped sweetly outside in the trees surrounding the Todoroki house. The chirping outside was reciprocated by a little bird inside.
Touya Todoroki laid one bed with his lover wrapped in his arms, one hand petting at his fluffy golden locks. A soft chirping snore came from the avian, Keigo Takami.

Touya never thought he'd be back here, in his family home, with all of his siblings. They had all grown so much, especially Shouto. There was nothing to envy there though, Shouto had gone through the same dead weight training and abusive behaviors from their father, just as the rest of them had. Shouto may be their father's perfect creation, but that's all he was, a creation, a tool, a weapon, just like he tried to build the rest of them to be, not a child he could love, but a bullet leaving a gun.
It broke his heart that Shouto still saw him as the villain he used to be, he can't blame him though, it's hard to separate that identity, especially when you've seen the same eyes of a psychopath in your eldest brother.

Touya shivered at the thought of his father, all the memories of the first time he was Touya, he swore up and down he had burned them away, but there was no hiding from them. The tip of his nose sparked a bit, it always happened when he was reliving that trauma, he was surprised he hadn't burnt down his therapist's office yet. He pat the end of his nose, dousing the spark.

"Morninin," Keigo mumbled out from where his face was planted in Touya's chest. "That's a few too many syllables birdie, but good morning to you too."
"Mmm, shit, you know what we don't have?" Keigo questioned.
"What?"
"The cream."

The cream in question being a scar healing cream from the apothecary that had healed his scars in the first place. This cream was supposed to help further heal the scars and prevent any new ones since Touya had a habit of sparking or going up in flames, leaving him with burn marks.

"I have the emergency canister in my pants pocket, pretty bird," Touya responded to his lover's worry.
"You're so smart. Never would have thought a that," Keigo slurred out, still half asleep.
"Up with ya birdie, someone will probably be coming to wake us soon anyways," Touya commented, his stomach growing at the smell of breakfast wafting through the house.

"Where's it the worst today?" Keigo asked, perched over Touya's warm thighs, running his hand up and down his exposed chest.
"Just where the scar lines are, a bit on my hands, I'll need a bit on the end of my nose too, started sparking this morning," Touya explained as Keigo opened the container and started their morning routine.
He traced over the scar lines on Touya's chest, neck, and cheeks, over his bottom lip, keeping eye contact with Touya the entire time. Keigo massaged the cream into the palms of his hands and left a little swipe on the tip of his nose.
"Thank you Keigo," Touya said.
"Ya know, you don't have to thank me every time," Keigo responded. "But you're welcome."
Keigo finished as he dove in to plant a kiss on Touya's forehead.
