[ Sorry, bro, he's just really glad to see you. Kirishima's been through a lot of emotions - or maybe it'd be more appropriate to say relived a lot - in the last hour or so. Ironic as it is, Bakugou's always been a source of stability for the Sturdy Hero. At least he won't make the blonde suffer the affection and silent thanks for long, pulling back with a parting pat. ]

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. ]

[blastedass]

[He's still leaning his head to the side with that scowl of his, as if he's pulling away from the other boy's need for physical reassurance. But not exactly trying to pull away from him. Aka: Kirishima gets to have his embrace and pat before they part and Bakugou unhooks one of his Grenadier bracers to more easily manipulate his hand. Tucks the weapon under his other arm.]

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.]

[machismost]

Both of 'em laid out on opposite ends of what looked like an impact crater. Ice melting.

[ 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. ]

[blastedass]

So something exploded between them.

[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.

[machismost]

[ Bakugou talks about allies for Dabi. Kirishima takes a slow breath in and out, longer out than in. ]

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. ]

[blastedass]

[There's a snort from the other side and Bakugou rests his forearm against the window, eyes narrowed outside at the falling snow.]

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.]
