[Bakugo watches the sword carefully with narrowed eyes, half curious if he'd been possessed or bitten. The effects weren't immediate for everyone and he could have gone berserk against his new allies as much as a time bomb waiting to go off on his previous ones. Luckily it seems Tsurumaru's coming back to his senses. Must've been battle craze.]
Uh-huh. You recognize me though. [He wasn't asking if he felt like his happy cheery self, dammit. Only whether he's able to recognize friend from foe and isn't lost in violence swings of blood. Bakugo doesn't expect any of the Outsiders to walk in here calm and fresh after what they've been through. Even people like Ratio and Raidou are dealing with heightened emotions and nigh mood swings of aggression. Bakugo had to get snapped out of it earlier himself.
When Tsurumaru lowers his sword, the young hero lets his arm go and drops his own to the side. He lifts the other and inspects his bracer's tank level. "Tch" clicks his tongue. Not full yet. He can't use this part of his gear in the confines of the dungeon though. It'd bring the ceiling down on them.]
That's not a phenomenon. That's called obsession or drive. [Bakugo focuses on Tsurumaru once more, though doesn't miss the "time" comment. At best he knows the other swords were created (recalled?) to deal with people fucking around with history.] Villains back home used to do that as well, especially when they're losing. [Hysterical strength. A cornered animal. Fight or flight. Maybe that is a phenomenon... Whatever.] We can't lose ourselves here. These bastards will take advantage of it.
