    Summary

    Dabi stills, then nods, slowly. A low, “Thank you” hiccups from his lips as he buries himself impossibly deeper into Hawks’ arms. “For listening.”
    He’s almost mortified by how easily the words came in the end. How fast the carefully constructed facade of the Dabi persona continues to crumble under Hawks’ soothing words and touches.
    … how much Touya yearns to surface when the other looks at him.
    “Of course. Always.” Hawks hesitates for a moment, before he whispers softly into the night, “You’re so much more than your inner demons, Dabi.”
    And oh, how badly he wants to believe that.
    .
    .
    Trying to deal with the aftermath of a certain encounter, Dabi finds himself almost overdosing. He’s discovered the next day by a street outreach worker named Hawks and his intern Tokoyami.
    After forming an unexpectedly deep connection with the military veteran, Dabi starts wondering — can he finally take the step towards recovery, despite the shadows of his past haunting him at every corner?
