[ after consulting with the other relevant party and ignoring all other parts of the younger Todoroki's carefully-crafted message: ]

what 'word'

[heir_conditioned]

That alienating people based on our homeworld wouldn't be an issue. I admit I'm not good at person to person contact as it is, but I want to do better. I'm aware that you, nor anyone else needs help and in some ways least of all my help, but it's here and I was sincere in what I said.

[wincon]

even without the "homeworld," you're alienating people just fine.

[ he may have learned a thing or two about what you idiots have been bothering dabi over. ]

[heir_conditioned]

I know I have. I'm aware of what I've done, now, and I'm not proud of it. I'm not like my friends who would have handled any situation like this much better. Including following up, regardless of who we were back home.

[By 'bothering' does he mean being absolutely stupid? That's probably a better fix.]

[wincon]

they've handled it better by not messaging me.

[ he's about to leave it at that, but then he has another thought. just to see how much of it the kid is actually "aware" of. ]

none of us are interested in your idea of what's good or right, in the other world or this one. even if the setting's changed, our values still remain the same as well.

[ "die if you get in my way" is the outcome of a certain value too. not only heroes can make lofty declarations about keeping theirs. ]

[heir_conditioned]

[Shoto would've taken that one. Instead there's a follow up and he's being told things he already figured he knew, but it's a nice reinforcement when it comes to the villain side of things.]

I don't expect a change in personality or motives. Imposing my ideals and myself is wrong, unintended as either of those were. I stand by wanting to follow up, but I know what my mistakes were. I won't repeat them.

*Are.
What my mistakes are.

[Maybe one day that might be an outcome for any of them, and not just from home world threats on either side.]

[wincon]

[ Tomura wonders if he really does know. All that shit about saving them (or at least Dabi), all that shit about not having to be "heroes" or "villains" suggests that he doesn't. Villainy isn't some awful fate they're desperate to be pulled from by the hands of some idiots who think the sun shines out of their asses.

But whatever. Tomura isn't here to talk a teenager out of his idol worship. What Dabi and himself have chosen is incomprehensible to someone who's never been on the flip side of the coin. Unless anything else comes up, Todoroki Shouto is just going to get a read✓ marker. ]
