[don't blame him; he was brought up that way. life's a bitch; now so am i. dabi certainly hadn't intended for today to end up giving shigaraki some enlightenment towards what he wants to do with his life here in trench, but he won't complain that's what happened. it's annoying to be directionless, trapped in a void without escape, not knowing what your purpose is, self-defined or otherwise.

he'll probably have to fetch his butt back to the surface.

luckily for tomura, there are no traps down this path. dabi hasn't booby-trapped the entire neighborhood. that's a surefire way to bring more attention to the place, since obviously someone wants to keep people out. mostly it's his literal storehouses that have that particular attention paid to them. this here? this is simply a natural path that people used to use. dirt with stones and grass on either side, leading towards the river they currently hear but not see.]

Don't think we're gonna have to "start" one. I think it'll happen if things get pushed hard enough long enough.

[when morals start to overflow and the normal feels threatened. the whole schism with the hunters is, admittedly, only infantile at best right now. disagreement, but not outright animosity so far. it'd be stupid to think something as trivial as that could be strong enough to start a war.

they'll have to fan the flame first...]

When've I ever- [Outside of sarcasm.] -asked nicely?
