[He hears her the first time, just barely. Katsuki's ears feel like they've been stuffed with cotton, between the loud explosions of his very own, the roar of fire and the seriously fucking grating throbbing he's got going on from hitting it on whatever the fuck he did. He just chooses to ignore her at first. That boot presses a little harder just for the agitation of it, and he only hesitates for a second the second time he hears that under water version of his name from afar. His dirt and blood and fucking grime covered gloved takes Dabi's disgusting face and--

This time it's his hero name, and it's getting fucking screamed at him. A voice he... knows, but not in an incredibly familiar way. It's distant, in his mind, but he knows it. What the fuck. Pushing at Dabi's face to push off and straighten up and out, Katsuki's head cocks at an angle to turn it, baring his teeth as his voice cuts through the air in a loud, threatening rasp.]
Haahh--fuck's sake--What?! [Typical bothered teenager response, eh? Only that's something used for getting interrupted in one's social media scrolling or what not, not being interrupted in the middle of a murder attempt. If Katsuki is surprised by who he sees when he focuses and it clicks, it doesn't show. No, his nose just curls up in complete fucking distaste and he brings his hand up to let it crackle. That's a silent 'duh' kind of explanation that pairs just as much as a threat.

It's just fucking Toga. Probably the one who's so annoyingly insistent that she's a fucking hero, since she used his hero name. Whatever.]
The hell's it look like 'm doing?! I'm gonna paint the fuckin' floor with this asshole's brains! [His boot grinds down a little as if to emphasis how much of an asshole he thinks that Dabi is.] Now fuck off!

[ with each step she takes, the situation becomes clearer. and that should be enough to make her even more scared. she should be terrified right now - of what a classmates's done, of what her kind-of-sort-of-maybe-once-friend is capable of, of the vaguely familiar burnt face that she sees in the crater as she draws closer. she should be freaked out beyond belief. ]

YOU fuck off!!!

[ instead, she finds herself getting pissed. ]

So what, you're just gonna kill someone? What kind of villain do you think you are?! [ months of anger churn and roil inside her, eating and eroding away trivial things as fear and survival instinct and leaving a core of righteous fury in its place. even as he lifts his hand in warning, she keeps approaching - though she does at least slow to a jog once he's facing her. ] Heroes don't do that! You don't just kill someone when you've got them on the ground!

[ she doesn't bring up the bodies. maybe they weren't katsuki-kun's fault. maybe they weren't entirely katsuki-kun's fault.

but right now, if katsuki had set off that detonation? as far as she's concerned, he wouldn't be a hero. he'd be a murderer, plain and simple.
]

Ugh, I can't believe I ever thought you were cool!!

[Definitely the hero one. God, how fucking annoying.

He looks wholly unimpressed, from start to finish. At one point when, when she's questioning him, the blond just rolls his fucking eyes and brings let's the usage of his quirk die out in favor of bringing his hand up to try to clean his ear out with his pinky. Maybe it's blood in there thats making everything slightly muffled... or maybe it's just that his poor fucking eardrum has finally started to cave under the intensely loud burden of his quirk. Either way...]


Fuck you're annoying! You done yet?? [It's rhetorical. He doesn't care if she is done or not. This fucking dumbass is going to get one warning, and one warning only. Why?? He doesn't know, it ain't like he actually gives a fuck about anything, if the entire razed town square around him doesn't make that crystal clear. Something about the expression on her face, her words.. that they're coming from Toga of all people... it strikes something else deep inside of him, something far far away from the person he's let himself become. Relating. Understanding, even through doubts. Something. Whatever is, it's just enough to let him feel generous enough to give her an out.

Last chance. Katsuki's eyes suddenly narrow dangerously very suddenly, that expression going dark and serious.]
I know. I know exactly what I'm fucking doing. He-[That gloved hand points down at Dabi, and his teeth start to show again as his temper starts to rise all over again.]-has this coming from me. Now get outta my goddamn face with your useless fucking hero speech, or you're gonna be next!

[Annnd he's back to it. Turning away from her to lean back in, reaching down all over again. Time's gotta be running out. He never checked for a pulse, but he can feel the movement of his chest underfoot when he inhales and exhales. Dabi is alive, and he can not be allowed to get back up again. It took almost everything he had to get him down like this. ]

[ she doesn't care what he calls her. it's not like she hasn't heard it before, after all. and besides, if she can keep his attention on her, that's more time to talk him down. more time to sway his mind. more time to stop him at manslaughter. (she hopes it's manslaughter, at least. it's about the only thing keeping her moving forward right now.)

and then he turns away, reaching for the villain's face, and himiko knows time is running out - for her, not just the guy on the ground. she doesn't know what'll stick, she doesn't know what'll convince him, and she doesn't even know if she can distract him much longer without dying herself.

so she yells out the first thing that comes to mind-
]

So what happened to the guy that took care of Ochako-chan for her birthday, huh?!

[ it's a desperate move. she doesn't know what to do or say, so she just says what's on her mind. it's gotten her in trouble before - a lot of trouble, even. but at least it's something. ]

Hey, hey, you remember when I brought you Ochako-chan's present? I thought- [ -a cough, dragged out by the sweltering heat, the smoke and ash around them- ] -I thought that was the coolest you'd ever looked. Looking out for someone like that, paying attention to all those little details without them having to ask... All I could think was how lucky she was to have friends like that. Like you.

[ friends that look out for each other. friends that remember each others' birthdays. friends that meet people they think are murderers because it's the best way to keep them safe. ]

You all keep saying I'm the one putting on an act, right? But I'm just me. Himiko Toga, same as I've always been. [ her hands balls into fists at her sides. ] And unless everything you did for her was a lie, you're the only one acting weird here!
