Hawks was soaring through the city on his hero patrol, enjoying the freedom of the skies and the occasional quiet moments between high-speed swoops. He landed lightly on a a quieter street when a fellow hero approached him, clearly nervous.

The hero hesitantly came out to him as trans. Hawks tilted his head slightly, his casual demeanor not wavering. With a warm, reassuring smile and a laid-back tone, he said: "Hey, no worries at all. This city’s got enough chaos without us adding to it. Just let me know what name you’re comfortable with, and I’ll remember it—no fuss."
