Summary
Keigo isn't a fan of fires. Bad for the wings, worse for the avian lungs. But he's a hero, and he'll go where he's needed, help out where he can. People love the assistance of a top ten hero, after all.
Or so he thinks, until one smokin' firefighter tweaks his feathers just the wrong way.
---
Touya doesn't hate heroes, but he's not their biggest fan either. In fact, his favorite pastime is sarcastically thanking his dad over Twitter for keeping him in the job. Still, life is good as a firefighter. Actually pretty fun, with all the shit Station 69 gets up to.
Until Pro Hero Hawks starts hanging around.
Then life gets downright interesting.

Summary
"What about you, Todoroki? Are you going to follow Endeavor's footsteps when you grow up?"
It isn't until he hears Endeavor that Dabi realizes he's being addressed.
"Oh, me? No, I'm going to grow up to be a serial killer."
His classmates stare. The teacher coughs awkwardly and changes the subject.

Summary
This was a novelty taught to all those in the royal bloodline - someone will always want you dead. Inevitably, it seemed all members of royalty had to undergo an assassination attempt. History had a way of rhyming, and the conclusion was always the same, just written in a different dye of ink.
or...
After an assassination attempt is made against Prince Touya, his father, King Enji Todoroki takes the necessary action of getting him a bodyguard - one of the last members of House Takami going by the name Hawks.

Summary
“You used to love blabbering on and on. What happened to you, Keigo?”
It’s the second time Touya has ever used his real name. He’s not as startled as he was the first time he heard it. The element of surprise is gone, but Hawks still feels something small and sharp stab at his chest. He wonders what Touya’s endgame is here.
“I fought in a war.” He says simply, shrugging.
Touya laughs again, louder this time, a cold, harsh sound that reverberates across the barrier and around the room. The guards behind Touya start to move forward, and Hawks can sense shuffling beyond the door behind him.
“Well guess what, birdbrain? I did too.”
As the dust settles after the war, amidst social turmoil and societal reform, between three centimetres, seventy-eight square kilometres, and a dance of thirty odd steps, Hawks and Touya slowly recover. In the process, they find themselves falling in love again.

Summary
"Oh?" Dabi taunts in that flashfire voice of his; and Hawks is reminded, yet again, how easily he burns. "Tell me, what poor little bastard's gonna be riding your ugly-ass coattails for the next few months?"
Hawks frowns, realizing he's just set up a question he actually has to answer. Dabi will find out anyway, won't he? If there's one thing Hawks has learned, it's that Dabi has his ways. Hawks can never hide anything from him, no matter how hard he tries, a fact that will someday spell his undoing –– but there's no way around it now.
Willing his fight-or-flight instinct into silence, Hawks reminds his sharpened feathers he's not here for either. It'll be fine. The worst part of removing a bandaid is the dread before you rip it off. Right?
So Hawks braces himself, and answers:
"Todoroki Shouto."
---
Hawks' doomed flight towards the sun is thrown off-course when he receives a surprise request from Endeavor's son, asking to be his work-study student. And soon, Dabi's worst nightmare takes a new form when Shouto joins Hawks' obvious-as-hell spy mission, putting them in forced proximity -- only for him to discover that his father's perfect masterpiece is nothing like he thought he was.
