Date: 1/19/22 15:10 (UTC)This one!
[ Look at him, tech savvy enough to put down a pin on the hospital in question. ]
I think he had some sort of showdown with Dabi... The field was charred and I think I saw the other guy getting dragged off too. He's not here though. I checked.
no subject
Date: 1/19/22 15:21 (UTC)Now he can add Todoroki on top of it. At least he gets a pin on the map, otherwise he would've strangled Kirishima through the screen for being unhelpfully helpful.]
You think?
[Sarcasm. Though the mention of Dabi getting "dragged off" is concerning and he flicks on another screen to check Dabi's GPS... but the fucker's got it turned off, of course, and so Bakugou dismisses the screen.
Getting dressed now.]
He warned me about "family business" before. Guess this is what he fucking meant. Either of them fucking dead yet?
no subject
Date: 1/19/22 15:37 (UTC)[ Todoroki's drifting in blissful unconsciousness at the moment. Kirishima's quietly worrying. It's bad when a guy like him is quiet. He's trying to hold himself down. No one else is here but him, so he can't really afford to properly freak out. ]
The doctors say Shoto's not bad enough he's gonna go full the crystal stage. But they still want to watch him just in case he takes a turn for the worst. I don't know about Dabi.
Is it bad I don't really care about Dabi?
no subject
Date: 1/19/22 15:55 (UTC)[Todoroki's not going to be gone for a few days on a phone-less vacation with Endeavor for his mental health, and with the only other family member here being the one who wants to murder him, it's not hard to figure the two brothers are going to have it out with each other.]
No. You're not Deku.
[Who cares about everyone. Bakugou was only asking out of factual curiosity.]
Can you get inside the room with him? Synchrony might help.
[Bakugou's going to call Midoriya about it if Kirishima's not, but considering their resident ball of sunshine is out in the world replaying his feral rabbit month from back home, he can't promise the other hero's going to come by.]
no subject
Date: 1/19/22 16:52 (UTC)I know he's stubborn as fuck but you really didn't try to tell him not to go?
[ At least there's a little comfort in feeling like a justified asshole about Dabi. Kirishima usually is very empathetic and tries to see things even from a villain's perspective. He's not even trying now. He's angry; it definitely doesn't help not long ago Bakugou told him Dabi was a major part in his kidnapping.
Part of him understands Dabi has to be important to Shoto... but it's not enough to keep him from feeling riled. He's heard the accusations against Endeavor; it doesn't excuse the bastard from doing what he's done to innocent people or Shoto, then or now. A part of him thinks he should be more understanding but, for once, that is quashed beneath ire. ]
I'm in the room with him... said I was his brother bc ICU doesn't let in anyone but family. [ Yes, he gets the irony. ] Will Synchrony work if he's not awake?
no subject
Date: 1/19/22 17:21 (UTC)[Bakugou already raged at the family during dinner about bringing up their shitty family problems with guests in the house. Leave that crap to be dealt with in private!
For the same reason, he's not getting involved in the brothers' spat. Because it was gonna happen no matter what. Unless the two of them are chained up forever on opposite sides of the world, they'll find a way to face off. It's gonna happen in their world and it's gonna happen here. Bakugou's not living in some deluded fantasy that kind of clash can be averted by a few "don't be stupid, don't go" words.
Took their whole class just to get Deku back home. You think Todoroki's gonna roll over any easier? Okay, so the real answer to that is "yes" cause Todoroki's not got fucking One for All Swiss Army Knife of Quirks at his beck and call. Sad truth is, they captured Deku because the guy only tried to run away AND because he was on the verge of passing out and running on fumes in the first place. Bakugou's under no delusions they'd have had a hell of a worse time if they were going against a fresh Deku.
That's not here though. What's here is Todoroki on a fucking hospital bed because he had to go be a dumbass and try to handle "family shit" on his own.]
Fuck them. I'm coming in anyways.
[The hospital staff can decide whether they want to try and stop him or let him pass through peacefully. Simple as that.]
I don't know. Some say yes, some say no. Synchrony can happen in dreams with some events and transformations, but I don't think it's "normal".
no subject
Date: 1/19/22 17:41 (UTC)[ But he can't really blame Bakugou. In truth, he doesn't. He understands Shoto was going to do whatever he wanted to do at the end of the day. He's just stressed because his friend and roommate is lying unconscious in critical care. He's just prodding because he wishes this could have been avoided. The reality is it couldn't have.
The reality is he either wants his friend to wake up or his best friend here with him. This waiting and worrying shit is for the birds. He taps out a message to Shoto's father because it feels right. He pauses on contacting Midoriya because it's a little more difficult to parse things. He can't guarantee Bakugou said something to the guy even if they live together.
Fuck them. I'm coming in anways. Of course Bakugou is. He cares, whether just for him or Todoroki or both of them. Kirishima won't be less than grateful for it and so he won't call it out. He feels a little guilty, calling his best friend to him this early, for being an inconvenience. He wants him nonetheless. ]
I'll give it a shot just in case. Let me know if you have any trouble getting in. I'll make up something.
[ Kirishima doesn't usually lie, but he stil impossibly thinks he's a far better liar than Bakugou. Sure, the guy can deny feelings all he wants - he's incredibly sincere in other ways. ]
no subject
Date: 1/20/22 01:53 (UTC)[Like angry bastards such as the one you're speaking to now. Not the heroic hero types who'd charge after him and try to stop him or get in his way. There are some things a person is going to do no matter what anyone says. Bakugou already realized this was something Todoroki intended to do. Trying to prevent him from doing so would've only resulted in a fight and the guy either ending up imprisoned by his own friends or limping off into the distance after leaving his friends in his wake.
That or Dabi showing up on their doorstep burning the apartment complex down wanting to flush out his prey. You know how villains are. Best to let the two go at each other and have it out. Bakugou also can't bring himself to get involved for another reason: that being the very reason he and Izuku ended up under house arrest. Because he, like Shoto and Dabi, had an ISSUE that was going to be resolved, THAT NIGHT, WITH Deku, screw the fucking rules and anyone who tried to get in his way.
Kirishima himself also had a moment like that...]
You didn't stop your plans to come after me despite everyone telling you not to, after you told them all.
[It wasn't for the same effects, but the similar feelings and rationale between all three events is/was the same. This was something you HAD to do or else you couldn't live with yourself.]
I won't have fucking trouble. Give me the room number and floor level.
[Yep, he'll be coming in through the window if he fucking has to. (Actually, he won't, cause he's a "good boy" monster, but he wants the information just in case. For other reasons too. Whoever dragged Dabi away might indicate some intent in "finishing" the job left undone. Not the villain's style, but better safe than sorry.]
no subject
Date: 1/20/22 06:39 (UTC)So Katsuki's got a point, even though Kirishima's knee-jerk reaction is to claim that situation was different. But he doesn't actually know what the situation is with Shoto and Dabi, does he?
So rather than arguing, he just sends Bakugou the room number. ]
no subject
Date: 1/20/22 18:10 (UTC)Still... rules are there for a reasons and he doesn't want to end up doing the same damn things the villains do. Even for the right reasons. No matter how much their society has already done so.
Getting the room number and the hospital location is good enough for him and he can easily call up the building information to locate the exact pinpoint. In case he has to go through the window.]
I told Deku. He'll come or he won't. Told him to tell Earphones.
[Yeah, forcing Midoriya to be "social" right now.]
This month's shit! Hate it already. Everything's a god damn fucking mess!
no subject
Date: 1/23/22 16:02 (UTC)[ But they can both come hang out with Kirishima and he'll at least silently thank them for the company, if not outright.
Maybe it's weird, but seeing Bakugou remotely freaking out makes Kirishima centered. ]
Hey. We're gonna make it through this crap. We always do.
no subject
Date: 1/23/22 18:40 (UTC)[Izuku's having a bad month for a host of reasons and the event's not making anything better in that. No point in making the eventual fallout of it even worse. Despite his arrogance and pride, Bakugou's learned that sticking together is important. Just don't expect him to admit it.]
Never fucking said we wouldn't.
no subject
Date: 1/23/22 22:56 (UTC)[ Excuse him for being empathetic, but... ]
And I'm just saying we will. I'm gonna head down to the emergency room area of the hospital if you wanna meet up when you get here. They've got all the good snacks. I'll take you up to the room.
no subject
Date: 1/23/22 23:10 (UTC)[Anxiety, paranoia, hearing voices, the violence around town... all on top of the issues Izuku has already.]
I'm five minutes away. I'll come through the front doors.
[That's kind of a warning too, cause he's not gonna let the hospital staff stop him.]
no subject
Date: 1/23/22 23:22 (UTC)[ Honestly, he's more offering to support Bakugou through it. He understands he's not as close to Izuku. It'd taken their whole class to wrangle him in.
Now as far as front doors go, this is why Kirishima's gone downstairs to meet Bakugou. He doesn't want there to be any incidents in the way to Shoto's room and he wants to see Bakugou. It's two birds with one stone. He looks tired, but still happy to see the blonde when he shows, and his clothing looks like he's been through some sort of ash pit at some point. ]
Hey... Sorry it's so late.
[ Bakugou, look out, he's definitely goin in for the one-armed hug. ]
no subject
Date: 1/24/22 01:51 (UTC)[Because trying to get Izuku to stop right now won't fly. Sad but true, they were able to stop Deku because there were 19 of them and he was running on fumes already. Just Kirishima. Just Bakugou. Alone, Bakugou's pretty damn sure they wouldn't be able to catch him, much less make him stop.
He does appreciate Kirishima wanting to support him, but Bakugou's bad about accepting support as well. And being concerned about their classmate, his childhood friend, is... a fucking pain in the ass, if he's honest!
Bakugou does get to the hospital and more or less stalks in like a grim-looking man on a mission, full winter costume and gear to boot. Gets a lot of eyes jumping to him. He heads right past the front desk, since he knows where Todoroki's room is, but the only altercation comes when someone tries to stop him. Said something about "only immediate family" and the blonde immediately lashes out at them. Raging about how they don't HAVE any immediate fucking family because they were fucking KIDNAPPED from their world and brought here against their god damn will! So for all you guys care, HE IS Todoroki's immediate family cause he's from the same god damn world as him and the staff has one of two options: either get out of his fucking way or be FORCED out of his way.
That's how he meets Kirishima at least, storming past the staff and suddenly coming face to face with his friend. So no incidents but there was a loud argument? Par for the course at least. Bakugou looks... worn, tense, angry, and focused. Kirishima looks... dusty?]
Bastard could've picked a better ti--
[Why are you hugging him? Frown glare to your face.]
no subject
Date: 2/3/22 07:31 (UTC)He's this way.
[ Seems like he got here too late to stop a confrontation, but since it doesn't look like anyone is chasing after Bakugou, he's gonna leave it. He can apologize on his behalf later if any of the nurses show up with a stink eye... or security.
For now, he's going to lead Katsuki to Todoroki's room. The fact that Kirishima smells like char and the fact that Dabi was involved might have prepared Bakugou to see at least half of their classmate is under bandages. The redhead steps to the side of the door, crossing his arms before him in such a way he's holding either elbow. ]
Pretty sure he's out of the woods, but...
[ There are plenty of issues here, namely the fact it happened and may well happen again, assuming Dabi survived too. ]
no subject
Date: 2/3/22 22:24 (UTC)What'd you see when you got there?
[Better not be chasing after him or he'd be laying out a few orderlies on the floor. Security won't get cut any breaks either. Following after Kirishima, he focuses on the person at hand, wanting to see Shoto for himself and take in the damage. Knew he was going out to confront his brother, but... that's all.
The damage isn't unexpected and his eyes narrow on the other hero laid up upon the bed. Bandaged all over, half of him looking like a fucking mummy. Bakugou moves over to him, looking down at his face. Tsk, asshole. The hell did he want to do? Didn't he fucking know this wouldn't solve anything? Yeah, the whole "I have to try" shit is ideal and hopeful, but come on.]
He'll recover. The medics here don't suck.
[Dabi survived; Bakugou's sure of it. But until he knows the story, he won't pass more judgement. Asides from calling the two of them idiots.]
no subject
Date: 2/3/22 23:06 (UTC)[ Shoto face down, blackened by soot and burns, reaching out for Dabi likes some grotesque arrow. The whole thing was sickening, dredging up memories of the war's aftermath where finding someone often meant just finding a body; Midnight had been burned too.
Eijiro's arms tighten around himself and he takes a breath. Shakes his head. ]
If I had to guess, he was trying to keep their fight from hitting the city.
[ Dabi was on the inside of it, after all. He's not a brilliant logician and he's not very familiar with Dabi's capabilities, but it doesn't take a genius. As for the other tidbit... Kirishima sees no reason to hold it back from Bakugou. ]
There was a woman there to get Dabi. Long, blonde hair, red eyes. She knew about their relationship to each other.
[ So not just some concerned civilian, like he initially thought. ]
no subject
Date: 2/4/22 18:53 (UTC)[It reminds him of what happened when Izuku and Shoto clashed during the Sports Festival. Two powers meeting in the middle and leaving both combatants thrown to the wayside afterwards. He just doesn't know which of them created that explosion: Shoto's Flashfreeze Heatwave or Dabi's flames hitting something bad (cold air or a gas main). Something to ask them later. If he feels like talking about it.
Bakugou doesn't begrudge Kirishima the sight he saw when he reached the area. Won't ask him more about it either, not wanting his friend to have to dwell on the memories. He shakes his head at the guess and moves to the window to look out it. Shoto's going to survive.]
They kept it to themselves.
[He goes silent as the rest of it comes out. Granted, Bakugou says he has no interest in the Todoroki family drama, and yet here he is, paying attention to his classmate's health and silently concerned about the villain's state. Izuku's really done a lot for Bakugou's maturity towards people...]
Figured he'd make allies. [That's his assumption on the woman. But doesn't recognize the description, so that's something he'll simply have to accept.] It's safe to assume he'll recover too.
no subject
Date: 2/15/22 13:53 (UTC)He's kind of an asshole, right?
[ He nods towards the supine figure on the bed even as he leans back against the wall. ]
You leave a note for fucking groceries. Not your body in case the worst happens? Right? Am I crazy?
[ It's so quiet, stark, incredulous still. ]
no subject
Date: 2/15/22 19:09 (UTC)He's a fucking idiot asshole with issues.
[And also runs a streak of "Jerkass has a Point" inside too. Endeavor really fucked up with Touya and Shouto.]
No, you're not crazy. He should've told you something. But it was going to happen no matter what you or anyone else said.
[Bakugou knows that feeling, knows what happens when you "need" to do something, screw all else.]
