I don't want to be told to grow up by Baku-kun of all people. A boy who never left his "Look how tough I am! Fear my awesome powers!" phase.
And no throwing Till overboard. Then he might meet one of those creepy sharks!
[Does "I'm doing what I want. That's why Hiyori is here talking to us" mean that Till wants to talk to him? How cute! ... even if some of his behaviors do strongly resemble a kindergartener's.
And even if the things he says are worrying. Does Bakugo even know about the Alien Stage, or what happens to the losers...? He's just going to skip over that bit himself.]
I guess that's one thing you two could bond over. "Not liking romantic stuff!"
And yes, I do remember! But why do you bring that up? Was your guitar already returned to you?
[He'll be the judge of who he thinks is cute or not, dammit! And there's a difference between physical cute and personality cute. So shove it. Not like Bakugo's gonna offer Till a compliment to his face.]
shut up! take what you dish and don't bitch about it! YOU WANNA GO, PARROT?! you're gonna love how tough and strong i am when we crack this fucking bird open!
[Not like Bakugo's one to talk about give and take, more than willing to insult someone, then getting mad when they insult him back. That's how you fight, dammit! Throw a punch, block a punch! He has to keep his tough and strength up so he's ready to fight at a moment's notice!]
baaaka! there's a shit ton of windows around this place! only the ones against the "walls" are fake.
[Though that's not 100% the case, since most windows in suites can't be broken. Tempting as it is to pitch Till overboard into booby shark territory, he knows the guy can't swim.]
i left cause the singing sucked! and i'm not gonna throw him overboard, idiot.
[True, he was following Till, but that's not for Hiyori to know!]
thought so.
[Is it surprising he was concerned about someone who comes from a literal execution round style entertainment field based off fucking slavery?! Bakugo's not going to coddle of baby Till over anything, but he isn't oblivious to the sort of world the guy came from. And he takes it into account when interacting with him.]
che! i'm not bonding with this guy!
[Already has, to their abrasive degree.]
it's not gonna "give" you a guitar, cat eyes. it'll make you earn it.
what bird? are you talking about the fucking resort?
there aren't any windows that matter here.
and hiyori you don't meet those things. they eat humans. or anything thrown overboard. and why not? you don't like me. it makes perfect sense to throw me overboard.
[ He would throw someone overboard. That someone is not taking part in this conversation. ]
you're saying that like i'm agreeing with that suggestion.
it wasn't my guitar and it's dead. i got something better. because it did give me something. but i guess this place doesn't like baku-kun if it never gives him anything.
hold on.
[ Give him a second and! He sends an image of his recorder. His most valuable possession! ]
"That bird" is how he talks about the resort, yes! And he's right: if he smashes it, I will love it! 💕
Baku-kun's a hero and not a villain, and those don't typically throw people to the sharks, so let's just take him at his word and assume he won't do that!
[You're the one who suggested he would, Hiyori...
Being concerned about Till is something he and Bakugo have in common. They just express that concern in very different ways.]
Something even better? Very well, let's see it!
[He's officially curious!
Fortunately for him and his curiosity, the picture comes in soon. And it shows... a recorder. The kind of instrument children use to play adorably off-tune songs. Not what Hiyori expected, but he's not about to knock it when Till seems so happy about it.]
A recorder, huh? That sure is nostalgic. Is that something from home? A childhood keepsake, perhaps?
[Thanks for backing him up on this, Hiyori! Considering they've talked at length about what the resort is or does together. One of the reasons Bakugo likes hanging out with Hiyori in spite of their clashing traits.]
of course i am! what other bird would i be talking about?!
[Did he never get to talk with anyone about the resort and what it is?]
hmph.
[Bakugo won't argue. The only windows which really matter in this place aren't available.]
urusei! i don't wanna deal parrot crying and bitching at me if i chucked you!
[Right, definitely gonna yeet the blame on Hiyori rather than state the obvious. Would he throw Till overboard? Probably, if they were alone and Till was really pissing him off. Wouldn't leave him there to drown. And Till can't swim, so he'd be diving in right after him. Anyways.]
the resort gave you something dead? [That's fucking hilarious! And creepy as fuck simultaneously.] i don't want shit from this place! if it gives me something, i'm gonna use it for my own gains and fuck the resort over!
[ ... oy. ]
you play the recorder?
[He has the same reaction as Hiyori. A lot of kids in music class played recorders when they were growing up. Most of them made a real shit din with it. Till sounds so proud of the instrument though; it's the first time Bakugo's ever witnessed him show any real emotion and pride over something without being snarky.]
i don't know if that's a good idea while we're inside this place.
[ However, he hasn't been here long enough to feel any particular way about the resort or it being smashed or cracked open or whatever. It's an annoying kind of place. It's disgusting. It mostly leaves him alone. Mostly. Not entirely. However, considering everything, he isn't too upset. Or maybe he is not in a bad mood right now? Yet the lack of structure is an adjustment. ]
would he cry? people come back.
[ He is aware about the dead not staying dead. ]
no. it didn't give me that thing.
i wouldn't want it anyway. plus it probably wouldn't stay dead if it's here and i don't want to hear its whining. i said i got something better. see hiyori gets it!
and i am a singer.
this has nothing to do with that. i like music and because of that mizi gave this to me when we were young. it was my long ago birthday gift.
[Even Hiyori, the resort's #1 complainer, wouldn't be able to blame Till if he preferred the place to home. Because, well... yeesh.]
I probably would cry, because I'd be sad to see you torn apart by sharks! Even though people do come back, it's best to avoid unnecessary pain and violence, OK?
That's an awfully strange way to talk about a guitar, you know.
[When Till said his guitar was "dead" he just assumed he meant it cracked or the strings broke or something. But maybe he thinks of it as living thing because he's a composer. Those types can be quirky!
But onto the recorder.]
So it was a birthday gift!
I'm glad you got it back. I have a precious childhood friend too, so I know how sentimental things can get.
[As if the Peacock would bother looking their way for such a request. The only way out of here is breaking their way out, either through force or coercion. Using the Peacock's own abilities and gifts against it if necessary. Bakugo would even be willing to ally with the Suits if it meant turning the tables on the Peacock. Not that he trusts the Suits any more than he would the resort... or whatever might be affecting it. Fuck, there's still so much they don't know about the place. Far and far away from being able to mount an offense.]
aa, people come back, but they're punished for it every time.
and those sharks aren't gonna tear people apart, dumbass!
[Not in the violent death way. But Till should know the nasty side of their host's willingness to revive them.]
what the hell? a guitar?
[Suddenly Till's talking about a "thigh' and "dead", Hiyori's mentioning a guitar, and Bakugo's suspecting Till's got an enemy from home he hates. Violently, given his words. Obviously he's told Hiyori more about his past than Bakugo.
Hmph. On the other hand, the recorder is something from home till treasures.]
