Aa. He wears goggles in battle so you can't tell where he's looking or when he's blinking. Most people are used to having their Quirks all the time, so they don't know how to instinctively "check" if they're working again.

[Unless they're smart and keep a constant steam of their effects going. Or attempts.]

[eyescar]

That's really impressive.

[ It would definitely be something cool to have in their world... Damn. He misses Higuruma-san so much. ]

Does he still do work, even though he's a teacher?

[blastedass]

Aa. Though he's suffered a lot of injuries this year and his Quirk's almost useless now.

[He shouldn't really be operating as an active Hero anymore, but Aizawa won't sit back and accept that.]

[eyescar]

Oh... I'm sorry about that.

[ Yuji can empathise. There are definitely some of his friends who shouldn't be fighting any more, but... ]

[blastedass]

At least he's alive. Midnight-sensei didn't survive the first war. [He's not sure why he's saying this, but it feels like a small lock came undone, wanting to vent to someone close to him.] It's the first time I've known someone who died.

[eyescar]

Yeah...?

[ Yuji wiggles over, reaching out to offer his hand. Katsuki does it for him, so... ]

It's hard, isn't it?

[blastedass]

Aa...

[Katsuki silently takes the hand offered, eyes lingering on the fire.]

Heroes aren't supposed to kill. We try to save as many people as possible. But those fucking bastards we're trying to save would kill us without a second thought.

[eyescar]

Like curses.

[ Yuji sighs softly. ]

I never wanted to hurt people, never wanted to do anything to hurt humans, but I've had to do something like that. But...

[ Closing his eyes, he swallows. ]

I wanted to save people too. I promised.

[blastedass]

[Katsuki agrees in silence. Never wanting to hurt people, never wanting to hurt humans, but having to do so at times...]

You've saved a lot of people.

[He knows there's been something in Yuji's past that clashes against that idea, but he won't give up on the belief in his friend.]

[eyescar]

I'm going to keep doing it, too.

[ Yuji leans in, resting on Katsuki gently. ]

Both of us will.

[blastedass]

Aa.

[He accepts the lean, taking comfort in it.]

My world's in the middle of a war when I got dragged here. All for One brought everything he had against the remaining heroes.

[Winner takes all.]

[eyescar]

You need to stop being the same as me, Katsuki.

[ A squeeze of their joined hands. ]

You can talk about it, or we can do another round of the game, if you want.

[blastedass]

Che, tell that to fucking Nutsack Face.

[He thinks about talking more about it, either here or through the game.]

What do you wanna know about it?

[eyescar]

Do I want to know who that is?

[ Yuji shakes his head, fond. ]

How long has it been going on?

[blastedass]

Our world's version of that brain-hopping guy.

[The mastermind behind all the suffering.]

Less than a day. But a year of crap's led up to it.

[eyescar]

Like Kenjaku. I get it.

[ Yuji nods his head. ]

Do you think you'll win?

[blastedass]

We have to. We will.

[He won't accept anything other than victory. Complete victory.]

If you think you're going to lose, you're already halfway there.

[eyescar]

Everyone's working together, so we're definitely going to win.

[ Yuji nods. He's clinging to that. ]

We'll do it.

[blastedass]

Once you win, what are you gonna do?

[Looking forward.]

We have an entire society to rebuild. There are a lot of mistakes we have to address as heroes, and villains.

[eyescar]

I don't know. I haven't thought that far ahead.

[ Yuji sighs, looking pensive. ]

I was too prepared to die, so I didn't think too much about the future. I guess we'll have to try and rebuild too.

[blastedass]

It sounds like the sorcerer society could use an overhaul.

[Yuji and his friends and allies should be able rebuild a better society, one that doesn't treat sorcerers like expendable tools.]

[eyescar]

That's the impression I've been getting.

[ Things aren't good, but Yuji had joined so late in his life that he never grasped the true horrors of it all. ]

But we can work on that after.

[blastedass]

If you're alive, you can always improve on something.

[Dumb piece of obvious wisdom, but probably works for both of them. A reason to keep living, to keep improving.]

Yeah.

[There's going to be an "after" that they can work on. He believes that.]

Truth.

[eyescar]

[ Reaching out, Yuji pokes Katsuki in the head. ]

Duh.

[ Trying to pick another truth question, though... Hm. ]

What's your favourite colour?

[blastedass]

[Oy. Katsuki "glares" at him before nudging Yuji in the rib. Poke!]

Orange.

[Green and black are secondary.]

What's yours?
