Understanding Your BMI: The Path to a Healthy You!
Maintaining a healthy body weight isn’t just about looking good on the beach (although that’s a nice perk!). It’s about nurturing a foundation for optimal health and longevity. One of the most common tools used to assess weight status is the Body Mass Index (BMI). But what exactly is a healthy BMI, why is it important, and how can we keep it in check? Let’s dive in by understanding your BMI: The…

ill be skinny. it will happen. ive been trying for so long now. once it was just trying to eat less and be smaller but not much real focus on my physical appearance. now its all about that. 11 years of my ed and 7 years of wanting what i want now. i dont live with my parents anymore. i have more control. i will achieve it.
there was a time where id eat 300-700 consistently. ill get that back. i will.
#most of the years ive had an ed i had no access to a scale so it was very jard to track progress#maybe i did lie my ass off and fool ppl around me into thinking its actually healthier for me to have a scale bc ill restrict worse without#one which is half true. not that kts anyones right to make that choice at this point. at least not in 2 months when im 18 its not#part of the problem im having is i wanna be small but i have so little muscle that ill have to be very dangerously underweight to look even#close to how i want. many peoples ugws are under that line. mine was once. before i learned that its genuinely very very dangerous#and a lot of the people who look the way i wanna look are only just below that line which is where id like to be#they look that way bc they have more muscle. most ppl cant maintain a bmi of 14 or less for that long. eventually your body freaks out#ppl use instances like eugenia coonie as proof that you can actually do it but like. most peoples bodies wont hold out that long#and many of the ppl in thinspo pics eother only maintained it for a short bit before gaining or getting really sick or they weighed more#and had more muscle. and like. my goal isnt to be all bone. i dont wanna push it that far. bony people arent physically nice to hold anyway#i just wanna be light enough that somwone cpuld carry me and people might view me in a certain way#i wanna be seen as cute and fragile and shy and like. young and sweet. ots hard to explain exactly what i want peopel see see me like but i#want when people look at pictures or videos of me for them to think i look sweet and wanna be gantle and nice to me#and when i walk around places instead of seeing an awkward weirdo they see a timid cute girl whos really tiny and pretty#i know ill never be that but. maybe if i lose enough weight and dont have much acne and leave my hair down then maybe i can come close

btw i think all people should involve themselves in body normalcy, fat liberation, intuitive eating, and never stop working on unlearning fatphobic ideas within themselves regardless of size. Because of how prevalent and ingrained fatphobia is, it affects and hurts everyone and becomes a motivator for upholding it. Fat people are treated as worthless and are oppressed, and skinny people fear being the target of that oppression so they continue to uphold fatphobia within themselves. this is why i disagree with framing fatphobia as bad Solely because you shouldnt judge other people's bodies. When you complain about gaining a few pounds, you continue to hurt yourself and your larger friends who hear how terrified you are to look like them. While i think fatphobic thin people should be held accountable for harm they impose, i also think that this should mean they work to align themselves with fat people instead, because we have similar goals and interests in eliminating fatphobia, which is to actually feel good about our bodies and find worth in our personhood, not our weight.
I also think this should mean you continue to examine it within yourself even if you think you are in a good spot. everyone has those instinctual fears instilled within them by society, i still have biases to unlearn, and i talk about them all the time to show that nobody is infallible and nobody is unable to engage within anti-fatphobic spaces. don't think you are unable to support fat people and appreciate fat bodies just because you are thin, and don't think that you are incapable of further reflection of unintentional biases just because you reblog fat positive posts occasionally or have 1 fat oc.

sorry to overshare and i know its probably tmi but damn i need to rant
so i just had the worst fucking gynecology visit like im in legit disbelief over this doctor. he was SO rude and absolutely tactless, if i had met this man in any other circumstance i wouldve jumped his ass fr. my dad has bullied me over literally everything my entire life so im not. upset or offended by his remarks (tho a normal person would) but i am baffled
but the kicker is. turns out i have PCOS and THIS MAN DIDNT EVEN MENTION IT DURING THE VISIT. like AT ALL. he just kept telling me im fine i just need to lose weight, the entire visit was him going. you need to lose weight, you need to lose weight, why do u think ur not losing weight, ur eating too much.
i had to read i have pcos from the fucking report file, he didnt tell me i have it in person, he didn't explain what it is just that "u have some small problems but theyll go away if u lose weight" LIKE WHAT?????
i didnt feel safe at all so i didnt even mention i have a gf and i am sexually active bc like. this is a man who BTW started insulting me and pretty much calling me stupid for using an app to keep track of my period. IMAGINE TELLING THIS MAN IM GAY. so i lied which i know i shouldnt have but i was rlly uncomfortable so i just said "i havent had relations with men" and he started making some WEIRD AND GROSS AND UNCOMFORTABLE comments like how i am """ready""" for a man. im. i cant fucking believe this

Man I don’t get how anyone can be mean. I can be cold and aloof, sure, but I said something that hurt my dad’s feelings today and I feel sick thinking about it even though he says sassy things to everyone all the time that make you feel like an idiot. I don’t get how anyone who is mean can live with themself.
#the fight was this: I was saying how I lost my ability to taste salt after having covid#and he was insisting I never had covid bc my mom had two rapid tests that came back negative and I never got tested (but my aunt had covid)#(and after mom met with her before we learned she had Covid both mom and I got sick)#and i felt like he was saying I was lying about not being able to taste salt#(salt is my favorite flavor btw. I put it on everything and it’s annoying that my favorite flavor is inaccessible now)#and he’s said in the past he thought he had long covid despite never having gone through respiratory symptoms or having a test#bc he had diarrhea bad for a while and now he can’t move too much or he runs out of breath#so I said why do you think you had covid?#he said the reasons above#and I said ‘are you sure it’s not just that you’re a smoker and overweight?’#not shaming his weight but he is BMI 43#I meant it more as ‘well your symptoms aren’t any more legitimate than my symptoms’#but he got mad and I felt so bad I felt sick in my heart#so I apologized and explained why I said it (because I felt like he was saying my symptoms weren’t real so I did it back)#but he didn’t acknowledge it and just moved on#he said ‘you just think that’s why bc your mom is like that too’#(which lets be real. it’s not long covid and it is because he is BMI 43 living a sedentary life and smoking. my mom is a doctor and he#hates being nagged about his smoking. but that is 100% why he can’t breathe well but I haven’t pushed back much on his long covid theory#before now)#anyway I’m writing about it to make myself feel better bc back to the main point#I don’t get how mean people live with themselves

So are you saying obesity is wonderful?
Yes, I am.
All bodies deserve to be celebrated. ALL FUCKING BODIES.
Also, fuck the term "obesity". It's a made-up faux medical word created to other and pathologize a normal part of human life. Just like "overweight". Over what weight? The random number that was chosen with the creation of the BMI as the magic good number in 1985 or the one that it randomly changed to literally overnight in 1998, magically making 29 million more Americans "overweight" and thus eligible for insurance funded medical interventions that neither work nor are needed.
If you aren't just being a troll, check out Yes Virginia, BMI is BS – Dances With Fat Ragen explains it better than I can.

BMI-related studies are so funny bc every time someone does a study that shows how flawed it is as a paradigm for measuring overall health, or, god forbid, shows better outcomes for people whose size falls in the ‘overweight’/‘obese’ categories compared to the ‘normal’ or ‘underweight’ categories you get tons of doctors bending over backwards to explain why those studies are wrong and flawed while defending all of their equally flawed studies supporting the fat=bad model of health.
Like I’m reading a rebuttal to the obesity paradox that is very seriously like “well fat people are always medically fat even if they’re skinny and skinny people are always medically skinny even if they gain weight so of course a fat skinny person is going to have better health outcomes than a skinny fat person that’s why this paradox exists bc all the healthy fat people are actually skinny and all the unhealthy skinny people are actually fat” which?? Seems like a bonkers thing to say if your goal is to make it seem like obesity is both a choice that you can fix and also always a serious health risk!

Fitness update time baybeeeeeeeee! I once again had to gather the balls to post the photos here so uh. Ye. :D
Like the last one, more details will be under the cut, but for the TL;DR crowd:
Last Update Here
Current: 177lbs | Estimated BMI: 24-26% | Push Pull Legs split at 6 Days a week
Notes: Training stimulus for this block focused on lifting basics and intensity: establishing a stronger mind-muscle connection and knowing how training to true mechanical failure feels like. Additional challenge: Finding maintenance calories and maintaining weight in the general range of 175-180lbs before re-attempting 1st Lean Bulk attempt.
Results: All lifts have seen an increase in working weight. Noticeably more muscle definition overall over the course of the last two months. Weight largely remained the same; assume maintenance calories has been accurately found.
Sooooooo the last two months have been kinda crazy. I took a look at my past lifting logbooks and found that despite my PRs being higher than the last recorded attempt, my overall working weights for all of my lifts hadn't really moved much. Partially out of fear of injury, but mostly due to the noticeable lack of real intensity in the training.
On top of that I found that my weight wasn't going down or up at the calories I was eating at, but my energy had begun to drop and recovery was suffering. Originally I was meant to be in my first bulk, but my weight never moved, and that ultimately resulted in me switching strategies for my nutrition too.
Basic idea: dial up the intensity, RPE of 8-9.5. Find true maintenance calories.
For nutrition: I used the TDEE calculator for my calories this time. It's supposedly more accurate than most other calorie calculators including MyFitnessPal's calculator, which gave me 2200 calories as my "bulk". Welp, turns out that's wrong; 2200 is my cutting number with my current activity level. And given how long I've been in a cut, it explained why, even in the deficit still, my weight never moved: it's too low to gain weight, and with how long I been in a deficit up until then my body was adapted too much to continue losing fat. So I instead switched focus onto finding my actual maintenance calories by immediately bumping my calories to the number the TDEE calculator gave me (2600 cal) and adjusting based on how my weight trend.
Result is, over the course of 2 months I gained 2 pounds but I'm certain this is almost entirely muscle (based on look, measurements, and performance in the gym); I've otherwise hadn't changed weight wise. This is good to know; it means I can eat more than I initially thought and gives me a stronger baseline for when I do actually go into a real bulk.
For training: First thing I focused on was my legs, which was arguably my weak link. This is largely due to an old injury in my left knee made it hard to reach full range of motion, and the strength discrepancy between my left and right leg because of it was pretty noticeable. Correcting it is one of the reasons why I switched to PPL training split, with Legs being trained first every cycle.
For both my legs and my isolation exercises I utilized unilateral versions of all my exercises; working each limb separately instead of together. I also incorporated a different set program: 2 working sets of 6-10 reps, 1-2 sets taken to true mechanical failure. The failure sets were meant for me to get used to the very uncomfortable sensation of training the muscle to- and past - it's actual limit and not my mental limit while maintaining proper form technique. That shit is rough, but it ensured that I was training with actual intensity and I was taking the muscle to true failure for growth, which in turn would help with building better muscle-mind connection with each muscle bilaterally and unilaterally.
For compounds I didn't take any of the lifts to true failure due to the higher fatigue and recovery toll. Instead I focused on building strength skill, so the set program was: 1 Topset (heaviest set of the exercise) 1-3 reps, 2 working sets for 5-8 reps. Any hypertrophy work for these lifts were always done with machine accessories for stability and safety.
Results thus far has seen my overall strength increasing, my knee is much stronger and stable (tested my squats and I can safely squat my own bodyweight without pain or wobbling, which is a feat due to being unable to do that months ago), and I confidently can say I have better form and idea of intensity.
-------
SO! With all of that said I'd say this block was overall a success after much trial and error. Now that I've gotten a better idea of a few things, my next move right now is to take a deload week for some much needed rest, then structure my next block for a more strength focus alongside my 2nd attempt at an actual lean bulk. The goal is to gain at least 4-5 pounds of muscle by the beginning of next year and make a new maxout for my PRs, so I might look a lil soft the next time I do a progress report but hopefully I'll be much stronger and ready for my second cutting phase.
This shit is hard, but I'm loving it to death man. I'm having a lot of fun learning and going through the journey and now I can confidently say that I'm at the Intermediate stage of lifting! I also think I know the type of weightlifter I am now. I've heard the term "powerbuilding" a few times now and I feel it fits; primarily lifting to build strength, but also throwing in some bodybuilding rhetoric for aesthetics.
Like I said a while back I'm seriously considering recording my workouts and posting those as I go on my Instagram, and I've actually bought a lil phone stand to practice recording and being more comfortable in front of the camera. We'll see how that goes I suppose!
But uhhhhh YE! That's all my yapping for now. Thank you for listening, and if you have any fitness goals feel free to share them with me! :)

Tamaki Amajiki head canons please 🙏
[ I can make Tamaki headcanons, although you didn't specify what kind. So, I made this. The reader and Tamaki falling for each other and Tamaki eventually confessing those three little words. ]
Tumblr media
The first time you met him was shortly after relocating to Japan, you were a fresh graduate who wanted to explore a different world. The BMI hero: Fat Gum was the only one that offered you, an outsider, a position in his agency and he was the one that introduced you to "Suneater" aka Tamaki Amajiki.
The two of you didn't exchange many words, even when you were in the same room. At first, you believed it was because of the obvious cultural difference, this aside you noticed you were beginning to stare at him whenever he happened to be nearby. You knew this indicated you found something fascinating about him, but whenever he caught your gaze, he'd gasp and quickly turn away to hide his obviously flushed face.
"Now don't mind him, he's a shy one! But I see the way ya look at him. Ya have a bit of your heart involved, don't ya?" Those words were Fat Gum trying to reassure you that Tamaki did, in fact, like you despite his questionable actions. Yet, you weren't ready to admit you were attracted to him.
"O-oh um, s-sorry I just l-let me-ah!" His panicked voice wasn't something you'd soon forget, and you thought it was awkward to have almost run into him while trying to pass through the doorway of Fat Gum's office. The fact that the two of you tried to get out of each other's way only to get in each other's way again was not how you wanted to get his attention.
"I...I'm not sure w-what to do, they're just..." he tried to explain his feelings about you to Mirio, but it was useless. "You said they're from America, right? That's pretty cool and you're pretty brave! You'll find the courage to talk to them soon. After all, you can't hide your feelings forever, right!?" His best friend responded in his all too cheerful voice which made Tamaki sigh.
He had no idea why but being near you made him happy. It was a weird feeling considering he didn't believe he had much to smile about and part of him hated it while another didn't want it to stop.
You found yourself feeling a little let down whenever a day went by, and you didn't see Tamaki or only caught a glimpse of him around the agency. Little did you know he felt the same way, and Fat Gum quickly caught onto this fact given the look of happiness or sadness on your faces by the end of the day.
"I...I think I need to tell them...I know they're still n-new here but I..." he jumped when Fat Gum laid his hand on his shoulder and trembled when he lifted his head to look into the eyes of his mentor. Fat Gum smiled down at him and gave a thumbs-up with his free hand. "Go get'em," despite his encouraging words, Tamaki couldn't help but feel a panic attack coming on.
Fat Gum calling you into his office was nothing new, but your heart raced when you noticed Tamaki was the only one in the room and even more so when he stood up and walked over to you, staring you directly in the eye. Then he muttered the three little words that made you smile, "I l-like you."

Okay, so this is the loop that I imagine breaks y/n a bit. And this is like. Explicit death sequence. So. If you don't like to read someone dying don't read this? Pillow did a nice like post-death loop thought thing here that this is tied to. Same vibes, less explicitly deathish.
@pillowspace
This... isn't right.
You're running. Your legs are burning, your chest is on fire, ribs crushing in on your lungs and every breath is like a wound tearing itself open again. You start to fall, catching yourself and taking off with increased speed.
Your hearing aid is gone, but you can't stop trying to listen for the sound of a creaking cable, a bone chilling laugh. Why? you want to yell, but there's nothing in you that can make a sound. Your arms hurt. Your feet are heavy, clomping clumsily past the atrium and its closed doors.
You keep running.
Your high school PE teacher would be impressed. You'd never been particularly fit. Overweight, he'd said, looking down his nose at the BMI chart and then the scale you stood on. You know now that the BMI is bullshit, based off a small sample of white men --- was it 12? 20? What does it matter; you're running now, and part of you gets it. How prey can run so fast and so long.
A security bot catches sight of you and blares its siren, alerting the others to your stumbling form.
You're slowing down, breathing in panicked little gasps, but he's not on you yet. Why? He's faster than you. He'd proven that already, so many times, over and over. He's toying with you. You hit the stairs and slow down even more, trying to think of where to hide. You're crawling now, on your hands and knees, grabbing at the steps in front of you even though you can't even feel the carpet.
You're outside the daycare again when he finally strikes, your run slowed to a painful crawl. You can barely move, and then wham! You hit the plexiglass hard enough to crack it, spiderwebbing around you like some sort of fucked up halo. Moon is holding you by your shoulder, and despite the lactic acid induced numbness in your body, you can feel the pinch of his fingers as he digs them in.
He doesn't need claws.
"Brat. Caught you." You wheeze in reply, eyes locked onto his, begging silently for him to stop, to finish his game. He's caught you before and let you go, and surely he sees now that you know, you know that he's won. He grabs your other shoulder and shakes you, your head smacking hard against the plexiglass.
"Ple-ase," you manage, barely audible. Moon's face remains an inscrutable smile, mechanics clicking behind the plate. "Moon."
He shakes you again, and your head hurts and you taste blood. You've bitten your tongue, hard. Maybe you'd finally get that tongue piercing. You want to laugh. A tongue piercing, now, really?
"Getting in the way..." There's more Moon's saying, but it's hard to hear over the rushing in your head. He keeps shaking you, and you can't really see much now, from tears or from pain you're not sure, but you can lift your arms a little. Enough to find his, holding them. "Moon--"
There's no way to describe the sound of a slender bone snapping, crisp and clear despite being totally isolated in your body. Nor is there a way to explain the sound of multiple bones snapping, the long ones in your hands, as Moon shakes you free. There's nothing for a moment, then a dull to sharp to dull again pain, throbbing and there and he broke your hands.
You fall when he releases you, but you barely hit the ground before you're up again. And up and up and up and his hands are around your throat. Oh oh oh his hands are on your throat and he's no longer shaking you or slamming you into the wall there's just pressure
Pressure and you can't breathe you can't hit his arms because it hurts but you have to you have to make him let go Moon let me go Moon please we're friends you don't want to do this Moon
This isn't right. The fire wouldn't have caused this. Was this why you've failed ten, twelve, twenty times now? You try to swallow but you choke instead, and you can feel yourself gagging, broken hands clawing at his metal arms, kicking out against the wall and his torso. Your foot gets caught in the billowy fabric of his pants. You feel soaked in cold.
It hurts it hurts it hurts you miss breathing you miss running you miss the laughter of the kids and the way Sun held your hand that first day when you thought you'd broken a finger playing hide and seek with the kids.
You miss Moon saving you from the others, his prickly anger and need to be the one who
Who caught you
Who killed you
This isn't right.
This isn't Moon.
Will you reset again? What if this is the end?
You can't see anymore, but maybe that's not a bad thing. Your existence is a single point of struggle, of froth against your lips and thin fingers crushing your windpipe. He didn't need to apply so much pressure, you think. To choke someone you only needed the
the
the arteries
What are they called?
Is this what you want to be thinking about as you die? Tongue piercings and how to kill someone without so much force?
What is Sun thinking right now? Can he see? Does he know?
Moon
Do they know how much you
how much
how
It doesn't hurt anymore.
The alarm starts beeping to the beat of your heart, and for the first time, you remember.
The ghosts of his fingers around your throat remain on your unblemished skin.
The alarm keeps beeping.

COD characters (men or women is fine) w/ a reader who has an eating disorder? I’m not trying to romanticize it btw, I have an eating disorder and I kinda need comfort about it. Thank you! <3
(I also love ur writing!)
EACH EACH 141 MEMBER WOULD REACT TO AN EATING DISORDER...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
WARNINGS: mentions of eating disorder and the symptoms. this is for comfort, and not to romanticize it. gn!reader. mentions of bmi being <18.5 to describe someone being underweight.
a/n; i mentioned different eating disorders for each character (excluding price) since i know that anorexia isn't the only eating disorder, and if anyone wants a different eating disorder to be talked about. THANK YOU ALSO!! i'm glad you're enjoying my posts, and i hope you manage to get better, or hopefully this comforts you. 🫶
eating disorder hotline - if you need someone to talk to. <3
Tumblr media
༉‧₊˚. PRICE (no specific eating disorder mentioned)
i view price as a very fatherly type of man, something about him seems comforting. he'll encourage you into recovery, but won't force it apon you as he realises that could make it worse for your mental sake. of course he wants you physically healthy, but he has to think about your mental health and sudden body changes could affect you.
sitting in his car for some privacy, pulling you onto his lap while he sits in the drivers seat. his hands massage your scalp, covering the crown of your head with his large, calloused hand and pushing it into his warm chest. he worries for your sake and decides to keep you off missions to not put any stress on your body.
༉‧₊˚. SOAP (bulimia)
johnny knows you've been struggling with an eating disorder. how you excuse yourself to the bathroom 10 minutes after eating, chugging water. he also notices your jaw, how it's swollen, your lips puffy and how you seem more exhausted after standing up. john attempts to help you, he's not educated on eating disorders fully so he does some research to figure out the best way to help you.
it's through comfort. any foods that you feel comfortable with, he'll eat with you, even if it's something he hates. johnny's hearts breaks when he see's you getting anxious, the minutes passing and the opportunity to throw up slowly fading away as you begin digesting it. if you use exercise to substitute, he'd slowly decrease the hours. either by watching a movie with you or entertaining you with something, anything to keep you from overexercising yourself.
༉‧₊˚. GAZ (anorexia with a bmi less than 18.5)
he notices how you begin limiting your food intake. it starts off with removing a few pieces, before he see's you limiting more and more, explaining that you'd already ate, or felt too sick to finish your meal. he's worried, he knows that you're struggling, he can see how tired you are; your iron levels dropping, fainting and getting dizzy when you stand up, hair loss and weightloss.
or how your clothes look more baggy on your figure, and your bones becoming more visible. it scares him, and he's worried for your safety. eventually, he begins telling price who takes you off missions 'til you're well enough, he doesn't want you passing out on the field. gaz helps you with encouragement, comforting you whilst you eat something you'd considered a fear food. he'll do whatever it takes to help you, anything.
༉‧₊˚. SIMON (binge eating disorder)
simon worries when he see's you. your face swollen from overeating, and how you push yourself further during training and sparring to compensate for the calories you'd eaten. soon enough, he confronts you. his handa wandering through your hair as he asks the question. simon is pretty blunt, he's openly asking as he's scared incase you rupture your stomach.
he helps you with recovery, making sure you're eating enough and not too little as he realises that results in a binge. he works on your recovery before working on your health, talking to you every day about anything that's on your mind. he won't pressure you to lose weight, but will comfort you whenever you look in the mirror, seeing yourself and feeling insecure. simon doesn't want you overexercising or pushing yourself to compensate, but he makes sure that you get out that mindset whilst he helps your eating habits.

Eagle Reon brings his daughter to meet the Shiratorizawa uncles.
Tumblr media
Hayato: "Aw... They grow so fast! Look! She's already bigger than me..."
Goshiki: "Ooh! It's Reon-san's child! A real child!"
Tendou: "Ah! It's a miniature Reon!"
Semi: "She's so cute... It makes me want to squeeze her..."
Kawanishi: thinking she's fluffy
Shirabu: wants to pluck Goshiki's feathers off, but won't, because it would be a bad example
Ushijima: about to ask if she likes volleyball
Now, I shall briefly explain which eagle I chose for each one of them, and why. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ushijima: an enormous Golden Eagle
Why: This is the eagle that you imagine flying freely over the vast steppes. A fierce and powerful hunter. The one you would call the king of the skies.
Tumblr media
Reon (and his daughter): Steller's Sea Eagle
Why: The heaviest and one of the biggest eagles in the world.
Because of this choice, for now, I will call his daughter Stella. Hehe.
(Trivia: Reon has one of the highest BMI in the series)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Semi: Harpy Eagle
Why: Mostly because of the color, but Semi also has quite high stats, so I think he deserves to be the mighty harpy eagle, one of the biggest and most powerful raptors in the world.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Goshiki: Verreaux's Eagle
Why: It might not be as big as the others above, but the Verreaux's seems to be quite the daring bird, not being afraid to challenge the bigger and stronger Martial Eagle for their catch. Also, something in them reminds me of Goshiki's bangs...
Tumblr media
Shirabu: White-bellied Sea Eagle
Why: Mostly because of the light color. It was hard to choose an eagle for Shirabu.
Tumblr media
Kawanishi: White-tailed Eagle
Why: Mostly because of the lighter color. But also because it's big, but relatively chill. It was hard to choose an eagle for Kawanishi.
Tumblr media
Hayato: Peregrine Falcon
Why: The 'haya' in Hayato is the same as the 'haya' in 'hayabusa' (japanese for Peregrine Falcon). It's not an eagle, but I think it's a good match. Smaller, but faster.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tendou: Bearded Vulture
Why: It's Tendou. Also, they break bones to eat the marrow, so Vulture Tendou would sing the 'baki baki' song while doing that. (Fun fact: The red is not blood, it's just stains that come from the habit of bathing in iron-rich mud.)
