Ma-hey, ma-hey, ma-hey
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
He and my hero, he and my love
High on a hill side, heaven above
Take me to higher love, you fly away
Me and my hero, me and my love
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
He and my warrior, he and my babe
He gotta fight for war, freedom to save
He gotta fight for love, far away
Me and my warrior, me and my babe
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia wa-hay-ah mama
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia, hey-ah mama (wa-hey)
The spirit of the hawk
My people, some of them have run away to the hills and have no shelter (wa-hey)
No food, no one knows where they are
Hear me my chiefs, I am tired (wa-hey)
My heart is sick and sad, I will fight no more
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia hey-ah mama
The spirit of the hawk
Hey-um ah hey-ah mama hey-ah mama
Ya-hay ah mia oh wa-hey
The spirit of the hawk

SongFacts:
'The Spirit' of the Hawk is a 2000 song by the Swedish country dance band Rednex. It is the second single from their second studio album '… Farm Out!'.
The Spirit of the Hawk is a Eurodance-style pop song that has no country elements compared to the rest of the band's work, but is heavily influenced by traditional Indian music. The refrain is sung by a shamanic choir, the verses are performed by the singer Whippy. After the third chorus, a famous speech by Chief Joseph is recited by a male voice (the narrator is different in the video and album versions; the lyrics are the same). For the rhythm of the song, artificial static bass drums typical of the Eurodance genre as well as organic, classic native American hand drums and a cuíca are used. The sound is carried by electronic keyboard sounds, a harmonica solo can be heard before the second verse and after the bridge. The song ends with a fadeout as the singer repeats the final words of the speech, "fight no more."
What is striking about the music video is its coloring: the scenes that take place among the indigenous people and in the mountains are kept in rich, warm colors, while those of the big city are shown cool and with little contrast. As the hawk flies by in the latter environment, the people take on a much brighter tint and stand out against the background.

Does bunny reader have any animalistic/omegaverse/hybrid features? Like going through heats or marking partner/getting marked to feel better, having the urge to feel the scent of their partner (even if it's not a/b/o universe). Maybe some other bunny instincts that we haven't discussed yet👀
If not, what are they afraid of the most? Do they show it?
The Bunny Reader does have heat cycles. I actually have a few asks in my drafts regarding the Bunny in heat that I have yet to answer, but Bunny does have heats and needs the help of someone to “suppress” it.
Actually, similar to cats that have a special spot that can be pushed down on to suppress a heat, Bunny Reader has one too! In cats, they have a special spot on their lower bodies where the male cats mount on, and applying just a bit of pressure on that spot can satisfy a heat (temporarily) so your female cat isn’t in discomfort. HOWEVER. Since this is only a temporary solution, Bunny Reader prefers to just have sex since the effects last so much longer.
Bunny Reader also has the characteristics of things like scenting when she’s in a heat. Sometimes she’ll be “extra affectionate” when cuddling up to the HSR women, but really she’s just trying to nuzzle her scent all over them as “her mates.”
Besides heats and scenting however, Bunny Reader sometimes gets zoomies when she’s super excited for something. It is not uncommon to see Bunny Reader (or the Bunny employees in general) just zooming around the casino at the speed of light <3

"She loved this man a great deal, and he loved her. I... envy what they had." - Justice, DAA
One of the greatest crimes of DA2 was never expanding on this line during the Anders romance. I mean, did they forget that Justice was the total hopeless romantic and was actually intrigued by the concept of love rather than repulsed by it?? Spirit boi spent the whole of Awakening, yes nagging his fellow Wardens about duty and obligations, but also passionately lamenting to the Warden-Commander about love; how in love Kristoff and Aura were and how he was starting to love this strange, mortal world.
'Thinks you a distraction?' Please. Justice would be No. 1 Hawke/Anders shipper. Heck, if we go by the 'Justice and I are one' logic then Justice would be the one obsessed with Hawke, in the way spirits tend to hyper-fixate on things, while casual hook-up Anders would be the one trying to reel him in like: 'Would you please slow down for one second and not make us look like a desperate lovesick fool!'
'I would drown us in blood to keep you safe''? Yeah, that was Justice talking XD
Varric got it backwards!
(Also I found it amusing (and prophetic???) that Anders was the one in the background of this screenshot lol. Makes it look like Justice is speaking to/about(??) Anders instead hah)

Hmm... this is a spin on the sentiment of the "people show their true colors when death stares them in the face" idea that Hawks and Stain profess.
But in this case, Kirishima believed only people with chivalrous personalities could be heroes. In middle school Kirishima's mind, this chivalrous spirit was a fixed trait. Kirishima's version of this idea was a more limited sentiment than the concept as used by Hawks and Stain.
Stain expressed this idea that people show their true colors on the brink of death to explain why he attacked Shigaraki - to determine his true character. It also illustrates why Stain didn't believe Iida could change during their fight because of how he acted full of hatred even when Stain was about to cut him down. Hawks stated his belief that people show their true selves when cornered while explaining why he wanted to be like Twice, a villain.
