What would dabi and hawks type be?
â˘Thereâs not an end all be all personality that Hawks looks for honestly
â˘As conceited as he can be (pretends to be, really) he has a hard time swallowing that same cockiness in someone he may be romantically pursuing. Like, sure, itâs funny to be snooty when youâre clearly joking about it. But if most of your personality revolves around being full of yourself, then thatâs kind of a turn off
â˘Basically you have to be humble to some extent. He can handle confidence (he loves it, actually!) but he finds it really off-putting when you talk yourself up too much, especially at the expense of others? Like, donât put down someone else because you have something they donât, be it looks or something material
â˘You have to be a kind person at the foundation. Sure, you may be rough around the edges, or shy, or maybe even a bit tsundere. But if you arenât a good person at heart, he just canât rationalize getting involved with you
â˘You canât be overly shy though. You have to be able to communicate with him as easily as he communicates with youâ sure, sometimes his charisma is a lot to handle, but if you just absolutely shy away from his outgoing personality without showing any signs of opening up, then he canât have fun with you, and hence, canât see a relationship with you
â˘This is so cliche but: if you make him want to be a better person then youâre absolutely his type. As in, after he spends time with you he feels like heâs floating on a high of optimism, like he wants to try that much harder to be the best hero he can be, like he canât wipe the smile off of his face because just being in your presence made him feel like he could do anything he set his mind to
â˘Heâd prefer somebody thatâs somewhat comfortable with who they are, not insecure, and definitely not routinely sensitive. Like... if you constantly have something negative to say, thatâs a real mood-killer. He can understand if you need him to be a support system, but heâs not sure he has the time or the energy to make you a better you. Heâll help you where he can, of course, but thereâs only so much he can do before it falls into your own hands
â˘Going off of that, Hawks canât be there for you 24/7, so if youâre someone whoâs overly dependent on their s/o, thatâs really not his thing. Sure, if you express how excited you are to see him after heâs had a long week of hero work, he loves that. But if youâre counting on seeing him every single day and your entire mood depends on whether or not he makes time for you, then thatâs just a no-go
â˘He wants you to have friends, hobbiesâother things to do that donât revolve around him. A good way to put it is that he doesnât like someone that always has a free schedule. He needs someone that can enjoy themselves when heâs not around, which is going to be often. Itâs too simple to say that he doesnât like clingy people; itâs more accurate to say that his type is someone who can live their lives independently without resenting him for his busy schedule, or having some weird existential crisis because theyâre dating a top hero that wonât always have time for themÂ
â˘Basically he needs a s/o that wonât suffer because of his priorities, and doesnât constantly require reassurance that he cares about them, because of course he does. Just... donât start unnecessary drama. Thatâs absolutely not his type
â˘He doesnât care if youâre not the intelligent type. To be honest, you can be dumb as a doornail and he still may like you, just because he thinks itâs funny how dumb you are. As long as youâre not an airhead on purpose, he doesnât care what your IQ is, or if you can have intellectual conversations etc etc. Just donât be a ditz because you think heâll find it cuteâhe wonât
â˘Also ngl, if youâre actually dumb itâs much easier for him to boss you around and he likes that lmaooo. Heâs terrible
â˘As for more superficial characteristics, he doesnât much care what you dress like or how you present yourself. You might dress preppy and very put-together and thatâs kinda fun to him? Because then he gets to turn you into a flustered and unkempt mess later. He likes seeing how easily he can mess you up
â˘And if you dress like a punk with the all-black âfit and chains and fishnets, obviously he finds that hot because hey, itâs HOT
â˘If you are blatantly into him and crave his attention, then heâll probably indulge you, because he likes knowing youâre dependent on his affection (not that he really gives you any affection lmfao)
â˘Dabi wants to feel like heâs the center of your world, so if you wear your emotions on your sleeve and make it obvious how hot you are for him, he digs it
â˘I mean, heâs definitely gonna take advantage of you emotionally because of it, but we donât have to talk about thatâ
â˘Then again, if you play hard to get, thatâs sort of fun too. At least, for a time. If you run him around in circles for too long, then youâre just not worth the effort anymore. Play your cards right or heâll get bored of you fast
â˘Sorry but if youâre strong, independent, and confidentâthen you ainât for him. He needs you to be pliable for his own gains, needs you to be easily swayed, needs you not to be so headstrong that you donât let him get in your head. Because he very much wants to get in your headÂ
â˘Heâs seriously a manipulative bastard. His type is the type that lets him capitalize off of that. Youâre absolutely not his type if you try to stick up for yourself or be your own person. He simply will not allow it
