[dabi does not think of the squids. he refuses to accept he was one, refuses to accept other people were one, and completely ignores the entire stupidity of that reality ever fucking happening. instead he focuses on his own shit, though he'd be lying if he didn't question whether or not trench had an "underground" scene like other larger cities did.

maybe they won't realize what he's doing...

he isn't surprised to hear that response from shigaraki. despite being prone to violence when he wants, dabi's pretty laid back about things, not going after people unless he has a reason to. that he isn't seeking to really fuck up their mutual annoyances from back home likely isn't something his boss had been hoping to hear? that's simply his nature. too bad. he doesn't need much a reason to get aggressive, but if he's staying away from them... easy to ignore.

onto other issues.]

Mister's gone, the Giant's gone, only the Lizard, the lunatic, you and I are left of the original group. [shigaraki can decide who's "worthwhile" from that small bunch. losing twice still annoys him. dabi had plans for that guy...

the neighborhood around them continues to show different signs natural growth, some houses swallowed, some still clear, though none really displaying any show of people regularly living within them. it's a place dabi feels save enough to stash the main collection of his goods.]

Ya mean, go home, and come back?

[he doesn't sound happy to entertain that idea.]
