[it's not exactly a hard moment to realize he's probably helping shigaraki do some career-choice efforts over there. after all, the entire time the man's known him, dabi's been gunning for war and death, albeit his being smattered with hints of focus and something more intent behind his actions. sending stain's message, backing up the idea the heroes are worthless, attesting to the reality there are no true heroes in the world, those are all things he has no problem ascribing to and holding up as his championing cause. but in reality... dabi couldn't give a shit about those as a main goal. they're offshoots. they're things he can point to that all stem from the one reason why he thinks those things. not all might. not all for one.

instead, it all burns down to endeavor.

but unfortunately for him, endeavor's not here. so... he has to make a somewhat new life for himself here. and figure out what 'dabi' is to do in a world where his source of survival is no longer around. well, obviously he's going to survive until he can get back home; that part alone is easy enough to decide and focus on. selfish, but hey, so's he.

c'mon. gambling's fun.]


Awww, ya worried about hurtin my feelin's, boss? I'm touched. [granted, dabi's never thought "broker" to be an insulting term in the first place. he always thought it was just one of those villainous job titles. like assassins or fences or drug dealers or prostitutes. though he has to roll his eyes at the "impressive for a lazyass" comment.] Careful. I might think ya actually complimentin me.

[too bad for tomura, dabi's not bothering to slow down. then again, he's also never been one for fast walking, stalking along with his normal languid and lazy pace. walks with the air of a man who doesn't care how long it takes him to got one place to another so long as everyone around him knows he's going to get there, come hell or high water or whatever's in his way.]

Who's "them" ya talkin about? If ya meanin the Hunter guild and the Night Walkers, I don't think either of them are on borrowed time. They ain't half bad either. Not as creepy as the doctors in the Lumenarium and I ain't gonna shack up with the scholars.

[tomura lost him with the "first swing" comment; he's confused if the man's talking about people and things here in trench or if it's something back home. or if it's just another gaming terminology that always goes over his head, dammit...]

Uh-huh. [well, he's certainly free to ask anything he wants. there's no promise dabi'll be in a divulgitory mood.]
