[those words cause a flurry of thoughts and feelings inside of him, and the look on Hawks' face show that he really is sincere. maybe Hawks trusts him more than Dabi thinks he does, or wants to believe.
it's so rare that he gets kind of sincere words, and never really words of trust. it's an important thing between them, and Dabi finds that it does help his insecurities to some extent.
he gives a small nod, eyes still on hawks as he slides his fingers into them, heating them up once again. they're warm, almost hot, but he uses all his concentration to make sure they don't get any hotter than that.
he finds it easier this time, his heat not fueled by anger or emotions. it's just a steady flow of warmth as he slides his fingers through soft, delicate feathers.]
