"Don't get distracted, Hawks"

Hawks sighed as he paced back and forth outside the Hero Commission President's office door.


He never liked the meetings with the president, she had big dreams, some of which that didn't meet Hawks ideals, therefore a lot of disagreement between the both of them.


Unfortunately, this mission means that Hawks will have to meet up with her a lot more often.


How delightful.


"You may come in now Hawks." The secretary said.


Hawks walked in, "Hey there!" He said.


"Good afternoon Hawks how is the mission so far?" The president asked.


"I haven't got the chance to meet Shigaraki yet, but I did meet Dabi and Virus." Hawks explained. 


"Any information? Are they close to each other? Or just withstanding it to fulfill their plans?" The president pressed on.


"Not much information yet, they still don't really trust me. But, they are close to each other, especially..." Hawks said, trailing off at the last part.


"Especially who?" The president asked.


Hawks hesitated, debating whether or not to tell the president.


"Shigaraki and Virus." Hawks finally said.


"Oh? That's surprising." The president said, raising her eyebrow.


"Apparently they knew each other since they were kids." Hawks explained.


"Hmmmm...." The president muttered, "This could be something good for our advantage."


"W-what do you mean?" Hawks asked, he had a bad feeling where this was going.


"Hypothetically speaking, we could capture Virus and find a way to subdue her quirk. If we succeed in that, we can threaten Shigaraki into surrendering." The president explained.


Hawks was silent for a moment. Using someone's relationship to their own gain? Even though you were a villain, this was just a terrible move.


As if though the president read his mind, she proceeded to reason with him. "Think about it! We can finally bring those villains to justice and the world will be safe!"


"But they are still humans! You can't just use someone's relationship to win!" Hawks protested, "And they aren't all that bad." He added, thinking about the cookies you gifted to him.


"Hawks, we are talking about villains who have killed people and will continue. You are really going to let their relationships get in the way of making this world a better place?" The president questioned.


"Don't get distracted, Hawks. Remember who you're dealing with and whose side you are on." The president reminded him. Her tone almost sounded like she was threatening him.


"R-right." Hawks mumbled.


"Good, I expect another report from you 2 weeks from now. You may leave." The president said with a smile on her face.


"Thank you, I will be on my way." Hawks said before leaving the room.


The moment the doors closed behind him, he let out a huge sigh.


Was what he was doing really right?


Back at the League's base, there was a debate on what to name the snake Spinner bought impulsively.


"William Snakespeare!" You yelled.


"Hisstopher!" Dabi yelled back.


"Barack Cobrama?" Mr. Compress suggested, earning a weirded out look from you and Dabi.


"How about legless?" Toga suggested.


"No no, William Snakespeare is the only right answer here." You said as you patted Toga's head.


"Wrong! Hisstopher!" Dabi said.


"Barack Cobrama sounds kind of funny if you think about it." "No, it's stupid!" Twice said.


"What the hell is going on here?" Shigaraki said, walking into the room.


"Spinner bought a snake impulsively and we are figuring out what to name it!" Toga ratted out.


"William Snakespeare!" 


"Hisstopher!"


"Definitely Barack Cobrama!"


"No, Legless!"


"Are you guys kidding me?" Shigaraki said.


"I agree, you can't just buy a snake impulsi-" Kurogiri said but was interrupted.


"Those are stupid names! Name it Milkshnake!" Shigaraki demanded.


Kurogiri sighed, "I give up."


"I have decided." Spinner said.


Everyone turned eagerly to faced him, wondering which name he picked.


"Bob!" Spinner announced.


There was a silence between the whole group.


"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" Everyone yelled.


Later that night, Hawks was laughing at your story on Spinner's snake.


The both of you had unknowingly made it a little routine that you will both meet up at the warehouse to chat at night.


Not that Hawks was complaining, he quite enjoyed it.


"H-he named the snake Bob?!" Hawks said as he wiped the tears from his eyes.


"Exactly! I even gave him a really good suggestion but noooo he chose Bob!" You said.


"Not going to lie, Bob is a good name." Hawks said.


"Not you too!" You said as you jokingly punched him.


Hawks winced, your punches, real or not kinda hurt.


You didn't noticed though, cause you had started ranting on how stupid Dabi's name suggestion was.


Hawks smiled and rested his head on his hand, watching as you continued to complained about Kurogiri almost throwing the snake out.


"Hey, why you staring like that?" You asked, breaking Hawks out of his trance.


"W-what? Nothing." Hawks quickly said.


"Ya sure? I saw you staring quite intensely." You asked.


"Yeap yeap, totally fine." Hawks said.


You weren't completely convinced but you just shrugged your shoulders and decided to brush it off.


"How about your day? I was ranting way too much." You asked.


"You weren't ranting too much, it's interesting to see the way you talk." Hawks assured you.


"Really? Dabi always says I'm annoying, then again it's Dabi." You said.


"You always mention Dabi a lot and you seem to hang out with him the most besides Shigaraki. Do you like him?" Hawks asked.


You nearly choked.


"WHAT?" You yelled. "THE DAY I LIKE THAT GUY WILL BE THE DAY GOD HIMSELF CAN STRIKE ME DOWN WITH A FUCKING LIGHTING BOLT!" 


"I take it that you don't like him." Hawks noted.


"Obviously! If he wasn't needed to be in the League would have decapitated him a long time ago." You said.


"That is an interesting way to get rid of someone..." Hawks said.


"Its fun!" You protested.


"I think we both have a very different idea of what fun is." Hawks said.


"Fine then, what is your idea of fun?" You asked.


"Going to an amusement park, eating chicken with someone precious to me, and getting a day off." Hawks said.


"Pfft those are corny." You said.


"Whatever you say." Hawks shrugged.


"Well, I gotta go! Shigaraki won't be pleased if I wake up with eyebags, goodnight!" You said as you glitched away.


"Goodnight." Hawks said, smiling.
