[ it's hard for dabi to get out of his head most of the time. to get away from this revenge plot of his and just be. he was able to do that tonight, somehow. hawks is a damn good distraction.

so, feather ruffling. not a good thing right now. ]

Guess I gotta keep my hands off'a you until it's time. Wouldn't wanna prematurely ruffle ya.

[ he smirks, because he can't help himself. that part might be harder than the two weeks hawks is trying to explain to him. sounds harder to stay away than to be stuck at hawks' penthouse for weeks.

he hopes the league won't need him for shit, but... they'll just have to make due. it's taken them this long to get their shit together. they can wait a little while longer. ]

When they don't fall off, can't ya just work them off? They're ready to come off anyways, ain't that the point?

[ or maybe hawks just hasn't had anyone to help him get them off before. ]
