I REBLOG THINGS I LIKE AND THEN I CRY

Abiteth calls Hawks:

Sperling ("sparrow" in German)

Hokkun (a way for her to say "Hawks-kun" that combines "Hawks" with "-kun"; this is like her incognito nickname for him)

Hawks-san / Hawks-kun specifically to tease him

Kei-kun / Kei / Keigo (once she learns his real name, but they are reserved for very intimate moments)

Hawks currently calls Abiteth:

Sweetheart (realistically he says "koibito" but in this SPECIFIC CASE I prefer typing out "sweetheart" in English over Japanese :rofl:)

Deviore-san (generally to be polite, but also to tease her) / Deviore-chan (deliberately to tease her)

Abi-tan / Abi-chi (also deliberately to tease her)

--insert bird nickname here--

I currently don't have any thoughts for what he would call her once he learns her Japanese name, outside of respecting that it is a name her family exclusively calls her by; probably happens in similar scenarios to her calling him Keigo (very intimate moments), in which case he just calls her "Yoku" or "Yokubou"

IN CAS he calls her "Aiyoku" ONCE and it's because she's acting in an incredibly hostile manner toward some kid who called him "Walks", and she was literally deaf to him until he called her "Aiyoku". And he never calls her that again btw (that's Dabi's primary nickname for her FYI)
