[He doesn't respond to the angry villain. To be honest, hack and slash is most of what his fighting tends to be like. It also tends to work, but he's also used to having three to seven other people with him to help carry the load.]
[The thing's new form reminds him of the Living Liquid, or maybe something from the Aetherochemical Research Facility. Either way it's gross and he doesn't appreciate being flung backwards. He rises and shakes his head, adjusting his glasses. If only he could freeze it or burn it - but he doesn't have the same sort of abilities that Dabi does.]
[What to do... slicing hasn't worked. Neither has just bashing the thing. If he could get in deep enough to shatter bones... he leaps and tries to stab in as deep as he can, aiming to sever its spine. Maybe now that there's been a few layers torn off of it he'll be able to get in deeper? He can only hope. And if nothing else, he'll serve as a distraction. He can take a lot more of a beating like this.]
