burnitblack: by broshuu for dabi @ dreamwidth (such a pain in the neck)

[that's a sensation he's not able to say he's felt before. having a blade pushed flat across his back (at least what parts of it can still feel to any real degree...) it's at this time that dabi actually "notes" the presence behind him, though the real tangible nature of it escapes his mind and burned nerves. annoying and unnerving, making him more than ready to have the damn thing removed. if it's also getting rid of the nightmares, double win.

oy, if you're gonna cut anything, cut the cloak; trench can replace that, not his coat beneath.

there's a quick yank and he doesn't flinch, though dabi tenses up in preparation for the pain- ... and it never comes. guess the spell worked. the grunt behind him he chalks up to the exertion of the sword motion. it's a strange sensation, almost "lighter" in the cliche sense. instinctively he arches his back, rolling his shoulders to shrug off whatever might still be clinging to him. no thanks on the touching. he can shake them off himself.

turning his head to look over his shoulder, he brushes at his back a few times, not hitting anything, but still able to ironically dislodge the now-dead creature. turquoise eyes land on the other man, wiping his mouth and shaking his head. looks damaged...]


I got it. What's the matter with you?
