mha/bnha fic recs (part 2)

dabi/hawks recs this time! ah, this is a long one. someone should save me from all of this hotwings brainrot. mha/bnha fic recs part 1 personal favorites are starred, by the way. everything is complete unless stated otherwise.

dabi / hawks (takami keigo / todoroki touya)

*little brother, we are all grieving by jurassicqueer (gaybirdkid) (~30k)

When a teenager is dragged into a police station by someone with a self-proclaimed de-aging quirk, it seems too improbable that one of the most notorious villains in Japan could actually be reverted to a scrawny sixteen year old.

But then the blood tests come back, and the quirk labs hand in their results, and it seems that Dabi really is a teenager again- and claiming to be the dead Todoroki Touya, of all things.

OR: Touya never expected to wake up a wanted fugitive, but with his luck, he's hardly surprised.

Through the dark side of the morning by StrikerEureka (~8k)

Hawks manages to keep his baby a secret from Dabi for a grand total of two months. Once Dabi finds out about him, he starts coming around a lot more often, usually at night. These are snippets of their time together.

“Hawks smiles as he helps him to stand on wobbly feet, both thumbs lost in a tight-fisted grip. Toma coos at him and Hawks coos back. To his surprise—and Dabi’s, judging by the look on his face—Toma then turns and makes the same sound at him.

Dabi huffs a breath and reaches out a hand to stroke over Toma’s fuzzy head.

“I don’t know how to make that sound, kid.”

i don’t usually read mpreg, but i actually really liked this one. i’d recommend giving it a shot.

Who let Touya Teach!? (Spoiler: No One) by QuoiGhost (~2k)

Touya (Mainly to spite his dad) has been come an underground hero know as Pyre. As an underground hero, he knows Aizawa, who is currently covered in bandages after the USJ attack. Yet he still wants to go teach his class?!

"Just take a day off," Touya pleaded.

"No."

Aizawa tried to get get and shove past him. Touya, who was having none of that, knocks him out instead. It's fine, he'll teach the class instead. How hard can it be?

-or-

Underground hero Touya subs for Class 1-A.

this one is really short, but it made me snort my water out.

darling, thank god it’s this universe we’re in (and you can annoy me as much as you please) by juurensha (~83k)

Todoroki Rei divorces Endeavor and moves all four of her children into a small apartment next to a boy with wings as red as the hair of her eldest son.

todoroki rei adopts hawks. really slowburn, lots of slice of life with touya and hawks being idiots about each other. it’s the longest fic i’ve read in a while (@ my commitment issues) but it was really good. very slowburn tho. oh, and dabi never becomes a villian.

what am I supposed to do with that mental image by bluebelle (~14k)

"Her decision to make," Dabi's mouth says without his permission. Wait, what the fuck? This is definitely encouraging this awful relationship, now. Hawks looks at him like he's never seen him before. "All you can do is offer people what you have, and they decide to take it or leave it. If it's too much for them, fuck 'em." Hawks stares at him for a long moment with something that looks like awe before Twice breaks the silence.

"Wow, relationship advice from Dabi! How rare!" Dabi flips him off and turns back to the soup he's been working on. "And it's awful! Nice going, onii-chan!" Dabi stifles a flinch at that, carefully keeping his eyes trained on the pot. No one's called him 'onii-chan' in a decade.

"I'm younger than you, idiot," he says with no real bite.

"Yeah, but you ooze 'big brother,'" Twice says sagely. Dabi doesn't trust himself to turn around. He has no idea what his face is doing, but he's sure it's revealing. _____

Dabi disapproves of Hawks wanting to date Fuyumi, so obviously the answer is to seduce him. (He is not jealous, he’s just horny. The timing is a complete coincidence.)

enemies to lovers and there’s a bit of explicit smut.

Feels like home by Anonymous (~4k)

Red-tailed hawks mate for life, and Keigo, with his bird quirk, is no different. Choosing a partner would have probably been a complicated matter; that is if his instincts hadn’t already decided for him when he jokingly agreed to marry Touya back when they were children. Back when he had no idea what he was engaging himself into, and when Touya was still alive.

Now a hero, Hawks has resigned himself to never experience love, but things get a thousand times more complicated when he has to infiltrate the League of Villains and his instincts suddenly go crazy for Dabi of all people.

Or the fic where Hawks is oblivious to Dabi’s real identity, but his bird instincts are not.

if we could always be so new by jihnari (~12k)

Hawks panics. "Okay, alright, jeez, you caught me, I..." Hawks hesitates, gulps; tumbles forward, "Have no idea who you are." The eyebrow is still raised. "...Sorry?"

Crispy Cream doesn't say anything for a long moment. The mental pressure it creates makes Hawks want to babble, but he manages to hold his tongue this time.

"I can't tell if you're screwing with me or what," Crispy Cream drawls.

"It's the 'or what'," Hawks offers.

Hawks gets hit with an amnesia quirk. Dabi gets begrudgingly involved.

*Grass Is Green (Except For When It's Not) by Numanum (~17k)

When someone else walks through the door, the staring contest dissolved with his Handler as the winner after Hawks whirled around to assess the new threat in the room. Juice drips from where his grip had crushed the juice box, further staining his clothes and making a mess on the bar top. Hawks continues to blink owlishly at the newcomer. The person, who seems to be made of shadow, rather than it clinging to him, looks at him with mild interest, a towel and a bar glass in his hands. His eyes move to address Hawks’ Handler.

“He’s very,” the man pauses, as if choosing his next words carefully, "small.”

His Handler grunts in irritation, and Hawks almost chimes in that he's sorry, he knows he supposed to be bigger.

A hesitant pause.

“Was it-?”

“Fuckin’ drop it,” his Handler spits out.

“Ah, I see,” the other hums tactfully, and wisely drops the topic. Hawks thinks that his eyes are pretty, the color of a flower that grows in the part where he meets Touya sometimes, but he doesn’t tell him. He's not supposed to meet anyone, and he's not supposed to speak without permission.

Or: Hawks get's de-aged and the league takes care of him

commission is trash, league finds out about hawks past with the commission.

Winter Flower by umathe (~16k)

It all transpires in a heartbeat with a flurry of flashing lights, entrapping Hawks before he could introduce himself - before he could sing the Hero Commission’s sales pitch - before he could even gasp. As his senses shut down one by one, there’s a passing thought that thank goodness he landed prior to being pulled into this vision; except, the next thought is fuck - of all people?

At least his assigned contact into the League seems just as surprised, beautiful turquoise eyes framed by horrendous scars bulging out wide.

Or: when you meet your soulmate, you’re forced to relive either the best or worst day of their lives; be it their past or future, fate knows best.

*Dabi’s Contact List by caiussw (12.5k)

Dabi’s system for naming his contacts was convenient for many reasons. Unfortunately, it also had many downsides. Such as now, when the League was scrambling to pack up everything and switch bases because their entire building had been compromised.

(or, 5 times dabi changed hawks’ contact name and one time hawks did the same)

crack and humor

*Tickets to the Todoroki Trauma Drama Are Buy 1 Get 1 Free by miniongrin (~24k)

“Fuyumi would be charmed, if she weren’t suddenly so sad. The day doesn’t seem as bright, suddenly, at the unexpected reminder of Touya. “I… don’t think I can help you practice,” Fuyumi says quietly. “I lost my twin a long time ago.”

Natsuo shifts uncomfortably next to her. Satomi gasps. “Oh—oh, I’m so sorry—“

Masako must misunderstand, because she lights up, excited. “Oh, I know! I can help you find them again!”

Her hands close over Fuyumi’s before she can protest, and the world flips upside-down until she’s suddenly somewhere else.”

When Fuyumi gets hit by a quirk that body-swaps twins, she wakes up somewhere else—despite the fact that her twin died a decade ago. That’s confusing enough on its own, but why is she surrounded by villains?

Dabi, meanwhile, keeps accidentally freezing things, but he thinks that’s a fair response to being called a name he hasn’t heard in a decade.

To Drink A Thousand Needles by Ihavecoldhands (~32k)

“My reason for helping the League of Villains? Well, a long time ago, I had a friend.” Hawks says, smiling widely at Kurogiri. “It’s a common story. Bullied kid meets another bullied kid, they become each other’s first and best friend, bullied kid #1 finds out bullied kid #2’s abuser is actually a hero, and so bullied kid #1 decides that hero society needs to be destroyed.”

Hawks first meets Todoroki Touya when he is eleven years old, on a humid afternoon by a concrete staircase.

He meets the villain Dabi eleven years later, on a chilly evening by a decaying building.

for i am sick of love by Markovia (~1.5k)

Keigo wakes at midnight to a familiar sensation. It feels like pressure on the back of his brain, an increasingly noticeable itch that he’s unable to scratch.

Touya is kissing his feather again.

warning: heartbreaking :’(

*Time™ to Go Feral by Anubis_2701 (~8k)

Sir Nighteye's quirk was a deeply useful one, with a rich history of helping solve cases, assist investigations and offer support to friends and acquaintances. It was, absolutely, not intended to be misused and abused for something like this.

"Can you explain why you’ve seen fit to consort with villains?”

“Consorting? I’m not-”

“Okay, fine.” Mirai huffed, impatient. “Why are you fucking villains-”

Hawks made a noise like a car trying to restart. This was going well.

(In which Nighteye survives, inadvertently discovers a conspiracy, emotionally adopts a small child and an utter dipshit, and fights the Hero Commission in hand to hand combat...completely by accident)

crack and humor

Reddit, AITA? by nocturnalgf (~9k)

I (23M) faked my own death when I was 13. WIBTA if I didn't tell my boyfriend?

shyan reclist (2/3)

I started watching a little internet show called BFU, you may have heard of it, on June 7 (my birthday) of LAST YEAR. So like, happy 255 Days of me watching the antics of Ryan and Shane? I’ve known who these men are for less than a year, which seems impossible.

In this time I have read a STUPID amount of words about these boys, so to celebrate this non-event, at the encouragement of my good friend @redxluna I present my personal Shyan Fic Reclist. Turns out it’s an absolutely insane task to fit 50 fics into one list, so I’ve divided it into 3 lists:

Canon-Adjacent Fics

AU Fics

Polyam Fics

Note: These are in chronological order in each of their categories, according to when I added them. I’m notoriously picky with my bookmarks, so just because your favorite fic isn’t here doesn’t mean I didn’t like it.

Complimentary Disclaimer: If you are directly associated with anyone written about, move right along, this is not for you. I include this note as a courtesy because the fan-creator barrier is too thin for this Old Guard Fan, and this is RPF.

AU Fics:

this one’s for all the supernatural beings and alternate lives

Precious metals by StrikerEureka (mature, 73.3k)

Ryan and Shane have been moving around something that is coming to a head between them. After a car accident, on the way to an investigation, Ryan slowly starts to become suspicious that Shane might not be what he seems. He realizes, though, that he just might not care.

Shane sits forward suddenly. “Hey, pull over up here.”

Ryan follows the instruction without questioning it, which probably says something about either his willingness to listen to Shane or his sanity. Maybe both; they go hand in hand. He puts on his blinker, even though they haven’t seen another car in a couple of minutes, and pulls off onto the shoulder.

“Are you gonna puke or something?” he asks, putting the car into park, as Shane takes off his seatbelt with one hand and tugs off his Ray Bans with the other.

“You better hope not,” he murmurs as he leans over the center console and kisses Ryan solidly on the mouth.

Baby’s first Shyan bookmark! This is actually a series featuring demon!Shane and deals with some horror elements.

you and me and the ghosts make three by varnes (mature, 16.7k)

When Ryan was a kid, he fell into a pile of bricks. They were playing hide and seek, and he thought he had the best hiding spot: high up in a thickly lush tree, his knees drawn to his chest so that he’d blend in. But the branch broke. He hit his head and doesn’t remember much of what happened after that. When he woke up a few hours later, the sun was setting, and his friends were gone, and his parents were calling for him, their flashlights swinging across the grass. There’d been blood on his bangs.

Anyway, now he can see ghosts.

Kind of.

Look, he’s not great at it.

Or: Ryan, personally, has three lists: “NICE GHOSTS,” “GHOSTS I DON’T FUCK WITH,” and, “IDK, SPOOKY STUFF.”

Psychic!Ryan duology.

Gravitation. by poetdameron (explicit, 31.7k)

In the half emptiness of his life, Ryan finds Shane again after two years of not seeing each other. Or more like, Shane finds Ryan after being possessed by a demon and having to re-build his life.

Ryan and Shane reconnect after Shane leaves the trauma of being possessed by a demon behind.

that first, initial feeling by varnes (explicit, 21.2k)

“You’re called the Treasure Chest,” Shane says blankly to the man behind the counter, who is looking at him with a completely neutral expression. His name tag suggests that he is called Ryan. “It’s -- literally every sex shop in the history of sex shops was called The Treasure Chest. I’m pretty sure it’s in the by-laws.”

“The by-laws ... for sex shops?” Ryan asks.

Shane fixes him with a look. He sells crystals, which means he’s a con man, which means he’s a deviant of at least some kind, which means he’s been to a sex shop and he knows exactly what Shane means. “Listen,” Shane says, and then nothing else, because Ryan The Counter Man pulls an arm behind his head to stretch and the sight of his surprisingly beefy arms short-circuits Shane’s brain.

The man blinks patiently at him. “I’m listening,” he says, encouragingly.

OR: An AU in which Ryan runs a crystals store, and Shane is beguiled by him anyway.

As a crystals person, I appreciate this witchy-adjacent version of Ryan.

A Local History by enjambament (explicit, 27.6k)

Ryan is a real estate agent that specialises in haunted property. Shane's new to town and looking to buy. There's a lot of over thinking, Steven Lim is not impressed with poor communication skills, some mysterious recurring dreams, a beach trip, bed-sharing and the boys getting locked in a room by a ghost. Or the wind. Depending on who you ask.

It’s haunted.

The Leading Man by breathtaken (explicit, 95.2k)

All things considered, he could definitely do a lot worse than this: a performer-owned and -operated, queer-positive, crossover film studio, promising creative input right from day one – directing, cinematography, [...] it’s everything he wants.

He just has to get his dick out for it.

I love a good old-fashioned progressive porn studio AU. The OCs in this are so vivid, too.

The Thrilling Case of the Mysterious Five by MiraclesofPaul (explicit, 57.6k)

Shane has spent the last two years arguing with Agent Bergara, a crazy conspiracy theorist and believer in the supernatural. When a woman goes missing, they hit the road to investigate The Five, a cult that chases UFOs around the country.

An X-Files AU if Mulder and Scully initially hated each other and constantly got into unprofessional arguments.

Ryan and Shane already have a very Mulder and Scully dynamic going for them, so it’s really not much of a stretch here, but mix in aliens and I’m sold.

lay your demons at the door by abovetheruins (teen, 7k)

Ryan had been so careful. For months he had learned to train his face into a semblance of normalcy every time a spirit got too close or he was overwhelmed with some indiscernible emotion on location. He had learned to channel his fear into something more manageable, something entertaining enough for the cameras but not so severe that anyone would be able to tell he wasn’t just jumping at shadows or groaning floorboards anymore.

Shane wasn’t supposed to find out. He wasn't supposed to know.

Ryan can see ghosts, and Shane’s trying.

a bar in the mojave desert by arostine (explicit, 21.7k)

Shane first heard about Ryan’s magical little bar in the southern California desert years ago. He’d always meant to visit, but the bar is off the beaten path, hidden specifically to make it difficult for people like him to find. So Shane is truly so excited to finally be here, in this enchanting little bar that’s turned so many of his kind away. He's so excited to finally set foot in the spot where Ryan’s fought off one attempt on his life after another, where Ryan’s won the undying loyalty of his handpicked bar staff.

But Shane is most excited to finally meet Ryan.

He wants to drink with him.

He wants to play a game.

Ryan’s a witch, Shane’s a demon, and they’re about to have a little competition.

For A Nihilist, I’m Pretty Optimistic by PhyllisDietrichson (explicit, 29.6k)

A story of moonlit nights, little puppet songs, and shoelace knots. And sorting through your own bullshit to conjure up the self-worth within.

This is a werewolf story except that it’s not. But it is a story about magic.

the agony and the irony by arostine (explicit, 68.3k)

Ryan has a lot on his plate right now. He’s one of three members of his species employed at BuzzFeed, and the only male omega, and his boss keeps asking him to do videos about being an iterant ‘to educate the humans,’ when what he really wants to do is videos about ghosts. So if, in the push to finish the pitch for BuzzFeed Unsolved, he forgot to renew his heat suppressant prescription—cut him some slack, okay? It happens. This is practically what iterant hookup apps were invented for. It’s nothing that making an A4O account can’t fix. Or it wouldn’t be, if the alpha he matched with wasn’t a problem unto himself.

This is an Omegaverse fic! I do not read Omegaverse fics, so you know this one’s special. I’m so taken with the worldbuilding and the cultures created therein, and honestly no other fic of its ilk has ever approached this standard.

Keeping Out the Cold by blacktofade (explicit, 28k)

After a strange ghostly encounter, Ryan and Shane begin sharing visions via a telepathic bond. AKA: the In Your Eyes AU that no one asked for.

Telepathy! It’s kind of a spoiler, but yes, this is on the correct list.

The Worst Demon Ever by drunkkenobi (explicit, 67.5k)

Shane is so bad at being a demon that he fell in love with his best friend. When he purposefully leaves evidence in an episode of Unsolved, Hell decides to punish him the best way they know how: by going after Ryan.

Originally read this one much earlier, but bookmarked it after a reread.

Lead us not into temptation by Agf (explicit, 6k)

"It's obviously a demon thing. And I know you're on board with the eyes and the horns and the-" Shane waves a hand over himself, "-but this is different. This is me, specifically getting off on the thought of corrupting your soul."

Look, having a demon boyfriend and not roleplaying demonic sex just kind of seems like a waste, leftover Catholic guilt notwithstanding.

This one’s a horny pick.

Light My Way by breathtaken (explicit, 31.5k)

He remembers Ryan in his body, Ryan in his head, and he doesn’t know any spells to help him get over that.

This one’s pretty heavy, and deals with sexual trauma in a fuck-or-die situation. Sex magic saves them, but at what cost?

Little Bit Magical by blacktofade (explicit, 19k)

Shane is a demon in need of healing and Ryan just so happens to have magic that can heal him. When Ryan needs protection from someone trying to steal his soul, they strike a deal to save each other.

Witch!Ryan and demon!Shane really is my favorite combination.

Almost Cool by blacktofade (explicit, 30k)

While filming the Yuma Territorial Prison episode, Shane gets bitten by what he thinks is a bat. Spoiler alert: it's not.

Shane turns into a vampire and Ryan is completely normal about it.

Lost Boys by TheEclecticEccentric are teen Hawks and Dabi dealing with how they were raised, if you like Hawks facing what HPSC did to him and Touya more tsundere than villain, not pushed too far yet. Drown Together by Zirconium40 has huge amount of worldbuilding and quirk theory. StrikerEureka's Through the dark side of morning is a comfort, low stress fic when the angsty dark fics with cruel Hawks or Dabi are too much.

I am intrigued! Links:

Lost Boys by TheEclecticEccentric

Drown Together by Zirconium40

Through the dark side of the morning by StrikerEureka

All of these sound interesting so I will be sure to check them out. Thanks!

Through the dark side of the morning, by StrikerEureka

(M, 8k)

Hawks smiles as he helps him to stand on wobbly feet, both thumbs lost in a tight-fisted grip. Toma coos at him and Hawks coos back. To his surprise—and Dabi’s, judging by the look on his face—Toma then turns and makes the same sound at him.

Dabi huffs a breath and reaches out a hand to stroke over Toma’s fuzzy head.

“I don’t know how to make that sound, kid.”

Couple: Dabi/Hawks

Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply

BNHA Fic Recs

🔥 Rescue by Starship_Phoenix [T, 3541, One Shot]

Dabi rescues a little girl's cat from a tree. He sees a little of his siblings in her. And maybe a little of himself, as well.

Thoughts: We love a Dabi fic where he’s being a good person but absolutely denies he still has some good in him. King of denial he is

🔥 Feather Down by empiricyakuza [G, 2103, One Shot]

Dabi wakes to a blanket of feathers and a feeling he hasn't experienced in a long time

🔥 Through the dark side of the morning by StrikerEureka [M, 8390, One Shot]

Dabi huffs a breath and reaches out a hand to stroke over Toma’s fuzzy head.

“I don’t know how to make that sound, kid.”

🔥 A Whole Galaxy by spitecentral [G, 2931, One Shot]

Tw: transphobia mention

Nejire gets kicked out when she's sixteen, but it's all uphill from there.

Or: snapshots of a queer life with queer friends.

Thoughts: If you’re aro, bi, pan, trans, and/or nonbinary, then this is a great fic. It even has a qpr! Representation woo!!

Fanfic Reader ask game:

🥰 Your comfort fics that you can re-read several times and still love them?

🍭 Favorite fic trope?

🥣 Least favorite fic trope?

🪠 Weirdest fic you ever read? :D

AAAA!!! :D :D :D <3 <3

🥰 Your comfort fics that you can re-read several times and still love them?

[Sounds of rustling and things cluttering]

Let me list them first because they're various fandoms, all of them are in my AO3 bookmark (some are stored as an open tab on my phone still to this day!):

underneath the braided sky by gwalchca

This one is 킹덤 | Kingdom (TV 2019) fanfiction! One shot light read. Hit the emotional aspect way harder than I expected. I remember staying up late til 4 in the morning because I kept re-reading the thing.

I'm clean out of air in my lungs by StrikerEureka

Buzzfeed Unsolved slash! I read this around... 2 - 3 years ago? Back when I was obsessed with Demon Shane so bad. It's really well-written, and by well-written I mean it successfully inspired and motivated me to write a fic for different fandom. THE SPOOK GOT ME GOOD! I still remember the thrill tbh.

It has continuation, and here's the link to the entire series called Precious Metal!

Matchmaker, Matchmaker by prosodiical

I think this fic got me obsessed with 5+1 Thing kind of fics without me realizing at first? It's Newt Scamander/Original Percival Graves slash fic. It's really sweet and funny, never failed to bring a stupid grin to my face whenever I randomly think about it tbh.

Basic Instincts by manic_intent

OKAY, tbh I'm very picky with ABO tropes, but this one has Non-Traditional Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics tag, and I thought. Heh, why not?

Turned out, it's really good. And really hot as well wtf. Lives inside my head rent free. I also read a couple of other fics written by the same author because the author is just. SO SKILLFUL.

All of NanaGo (呪術廻戦 | Jujutsu Kaisen) fics written by AO3 user Newlight tbh

The entire list of Moon Knight System fics that I made the other day (here)

This list of my favorite Frank Castle/Matt Murdock fics (including the ones on the reply!)

That's all for now I guess.... sorry for listing so many 😂😂😂

🍭 Favorite fic trope?

GIVE ME SLOW BURN AND FOUND FAMILY OR GIVE ME *DEATH*

🥣 Least favorite fic trope?

Already answered here! :D

Alright, maybe this one isn't exactly "the least favorite", but I get disinterested so quickly with fast-paced romance. Yes, even for my own favorite pairings tbh.... things have to be BUILT. SLOWLY. FIRST.

🪠 Weirdest fic you ever read?

Oh God. I wanted so bad to get rid of this out of my goddamn mind, but, like, last year someone talked about a slash fic between Gojo Satoru and A TOILET.

A SLASH FIC. CRACK TREATED VERY SERIOUSLY.

I need to get brainwashed after remembering it again.
