Chapter 2 is coming out later tonight/morning! (wherever you are in the world)
Thinking about Keigo's wings, and how a lot of people like to base Keigo's wings on a Red-Tailed Hawk. The average wingspan of RT-Hawks are just under 5 feet, and so if we scale it up by about 3.1x (taking the average size of a TRH and matching it as close as possible to Keigo's height.) Then multiply that by the average wingspan, (Lets say 4ft 2inch). Keigo would have a wingspan of around 13-15ft, depending on the size, so about 14ft.
From what we have seen, Keigo soars in the sky, like a Hawk would do. Understanding how a Hawk is able to soar, you would know that it conserves a lot of energy by doing so. We see that Keigo gets bored while flying during work, as its takes so little energy that it would quite literally not require him to concentrate on flying at all. (Theoretically, he could soar the skies effortlessly without even thinking, second nature type shit.) This allows him to use his eyes to scout the ground below, or shift his body during flight.
We also know that Keigo states that he is not powerful, and relies on speed and agility. Keigo can also manipulate his feathers to sharpen them, use them as blades, sense things around him, and pick people or object up. We know his feathers are incredibly strong, specifically the calamus, or quil. If we take that into account, we can theorize that Keigo could probably lift close to a ton with his feathers. We know this because when Hawks rescues the civilians in the collasping building in the nomu fight, he is carrying well over 20 adults (possibly 30-60), the average weight of a human being anywhere from 120-200 lbs. Even as a child, Keigo has saved adults during the high-speed car accident, meaning Keigo's feathers have always been strong.
Knowing all of this, we can safely say, I have no idea where this is going other than Keigo is stupidly fast, smart, and strong. Even if we only see two aspects, his speed and wit, we also get bits of how powerful his wings are.
BY THE WAY, Keigo is stupidly resiliant... He lands on his back, tumbling and recovered within the instant, adjusting his wings for balance as he runs at an inhumane speed, not only backwords, but squated, or knees bent close to 90°, any other hero would more than likely have taken the fall, stayed down for a good while then recovered.
Keigo is also impulsive, manipulative and aware. He can read others better than they think, he states how he is impulsive and can't control himself when he wants something. He snuck his way into Twice's brain along with 95% of the PLF. Keigo is so casual about how he presents himself, that people never notice how alert he is.
Oh and and and, THIS IS IMPORTANT. KEIGOS WINGS ARENT CONSTANTLY SENSITIVE. We knows this because canonically, kids and adults touch and mess with his wings when he deals with his fans. We only see his feathers detect sounds, vibrations, etc. when he concentrates to do so. Meaning he needs a lot of brainpower to "listen in" through his feathers. If they were constantly sensitive, then he wouldn't be able to use them during combat, rescue, or near others.
Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.

(Side Note: I could keep going, I really could... but if I did this would be stupidly long.)
Hawks who has a new neighbor, that doesn't seem to mind the Wing Hero's presence. His neighbor that didn't freak out the moment they realized who lived next to them. His neighbor who is a bit goofy, and can be a bit loud at times, but is understandable. His neighbor who every so often checks in on him to make sure he is taking care of himself. His neighbor who often stares at the view of the city while relaxing on the balcony. His neighbor who he enjoys having around because they treat him like a normal person. His neighbor that he some times hangs out with because he enjoys their company. His neighbor who makes him feel like a real person. His neighbor who makes Hawks feel human.
F.Hawks: I absolutely love cats! Especially ones that are tall, dark, and handsome.
C.Hawks: Are... you saying you love an animal that is known for hunting birds for sport?
F.Hawks: ....
F.Hawks: Dabi doesn't hunt birds for sport!
C.Hawks: Of course you're talking about Dabi.
I feel like when Hawks has breakdowns or is on the brink of one, he sits alone and curls his wings around himself, shielding him from the outside world. On the outside he looks pretty goofy but inside his wings, he feels the most safe and keeps others out as he deals with his own problems by himself.
I spent the literal day reading a dabihawks fanfic, and I am so invested in it. FUCCKKK
It's called War Prize, on Ao3, by Kayrikka.
It's a fucking must read.
Hawks canonically perches on things and it makes me wonder if he was trained to perch, or if was something that came naturally to him.
Now thinking of the commissiom training Hawks how to perch, and theh are like: "Hawks, you are part bird, birds perch, you can do this. It's not that hard."
But then again, Hawks never got to fully embrace his quirk when he was young, so now it makes me wonder if he even knew his wings were bird wings, rather than just 'useless wings', as pertrayed by his father.
Canon Hawks: Fanon did you eat my sandwich?
Fanon Hawks: I am your sandwich.
*prceeds to morph into a sandwich*
Canon Hawks:...
Y/N: Oh look, free food!
Canon Hawks: WAI-
F.Hawks to Daybreak: Damn your Jolteon. No matter, my Talonflame will wipe your board!
C.Hawks to Nightwing: I don't think traveling the world is selfish. Nor is it self centered.
C.Hawks looking over as F.Hawks as he speaks to Nightwing: Being a high ranking hero is actually pretty intimidating to other heroes. And being so young and successful, most heroes think of me as immature, arrogant or self centered. They don't want to be friends with someone they see as childish or young and higher status than them. Though, there are few that I am friends with.
C.Hawks to Nightwing: I do have one intern that I am fairly fond of, though he is currently training his quirk at the moment.
C.Hawks: What about you two? Got any interns? Sidekicks?
*two new underground heros walk in*
(Daybreak) Zarah: oh hi, nice meeting you both :). This my freind/hero partner Big bir- I mean Nightwing
(Nightwing) Raphael : sigh...Hello, hope you all having a nice day. We wer-*gets cut off by Zarah*
(Daybreak) Zarah: -We come from Latin America. We was wondering if u can help us navigate japan, we are new here...
(Nightwing)Raphael: Sorry, apparently our mission had us going across the globe this time. Hehe...
C.Hawks: Hello there! New to Japan eh? Sure I can show you the ropes, just hope you can keep up!
F.Hawks: Heyo, nice to meet new faces in Japan. Latin America you say? What’s it like over there if you don’t mind me asking. Oh, and what quirks do the two of you possess?
F.Hawks whispering: Hey.
F.Hawks whispering a little louder: Heeeyy. Lark, wake up.
F.Hawks getting closer to your face: Lark bird, come on. You've been asleep all day. It's time to rise and sing your beautiful song.
F.Hawks putting a hand on your face and rubbing your cheek with his thumb: Come on Lark bird. I promised to take care of you, including your mental health. I can't do that if you sleep all day. If you want, I can buy us some food, and we can watch a movie and eat on the couch. How does that sound?
F.Hawks after you wake up: There's my Lark bird. Come on now, let's get you something to eat. Let's also get you out of this home, and refresh the scenery for you.
C.Hawks: I hate Dabi, he smells horrible and is a liar.
F.Hawks: I want that man to fuck me sideways and leave marks all over my body. He can do whatever he wants to me and I will be all for it.
C.Hawks visibly concerned: WHAT THE FUCK
