grunts as he pushes the last of the rubble aside Damn debris! You good? You better be!
A bit bruised, but nothing I can't handle, Katsuki... winces slightly Thanks for clearing the way.
Don't give me that bullshit, Tiger! You think I'm gonna let anything happen to you? Not on my watch! clenches his fist We're getting out of here, now!
Laughs weakly That's my stubborn Katsuki... Always ready to charge into battle. Pauses, wincing again But... we can't just run. There's still civilians here.
narrows his eyes Look, I know you're all about saving civilians, but damn, Tiger, we can't stay here! This place is gonna blow any minute now!
If we need to leave, then we leave... I won't argue with that. But first, we make sure everyone else is safe. After that, we hit the road. Deal?
grits his teeth, but reluctantly nods Fine, deal. But we're moving fast. And if anyone gets in our damn way, they're gonna regret it.
Then let's get to work... and remember, no heroics. We're not the only ones here with powers. There could be innocent people caught in the crossfire.
snaps his fingers Got it, no heroics. Just get the hell out of here and keep everyone safe. Simple enough. pauses, then smirks
Sounds like a plan... sighs heavily Let's go. And Katsuki... try not to blow us all up, okay?
smirks and cracks his knuckles You know me, Tiger. Always explosive. But don't worry, I'll try to keep the detonations to a minimum.
Alright, then... let's do this. Starts to move forward cautiously
takes point, scanning the surroundings Move it, Tiger! We don't have time to dawdle!
Chuckles Your impatience is going to be the death of us, Katsuki... But fine, follow my lead. Steps over a fallen beam and helps another person to their feet Let's get these people to safety.
glances back at TigerCascade with a small smirk Yeah, yeah, I know you're Mr. Care Bear. But I'm not about to hold back for anyone's sake.
Good. Because neither am I. Now, help me with these two. We're making this rescue look like child's play.
<As they lead the civilians to safety, TigerCascade accidentally triggers a hidden bomb, causing a massive explosion and injuring both Katsuki and TigerCascade.>
winces and coughs, covering his mouth from the smoke Dammit, Katsuki! Careful next time!
coughs and wipes the smoke from his eyes, glaring at TigerCascade Careful? You're the one who set off the damn bomb!
Coughing I didn't set off the bomb, Katsuki! It was... there... I didn't see it... it was hidden. You should've been more careful... Gags as he inhales more smoke
grabs TigerCascade by the collar, pulling him close Don't you dare blame this on me, you dumbass!
Coughs violently, struggling to speak B-bakugou... I... I messed up... Wheezes Y-you're right... I shouldn't have... Passes out from the smoke and coughing
releases his grip on TigerCascade's collar, his expression softening Dammit, Tiger... You really screwed up this time.
Coughs violently, regaining consciousness Shit... what happened? Where are we?
grumbles We're in a goddamn mess, that's what happened. We were doing good, saving people and shit, and then you had to go and blow things up.
Fuck, I'm sorry, Katsuki... I didn't see the bomb... I thought it was part of the rubble... I didn't mean to hurt anyone... Are you alright?
rolls his eyes and crosses his arms Of course I'm not alright, you idiot! I almost got my ass blown to smithereens thanks to your fucking mistake!
I didn't mean to, Katsuki! I was trying to help! I fucked up, I admit it... But you should've been watching out too! Winces as he tries to move, feeling a sharp pain in his side
growls, frustration evident in his voice Watching out? Are you kidding me, Tiger? I can't be everywhere at once!
Exactly! That's why we need to work together. If we had, maybe none of this would've happened! You can't blame this all on me, Katsuki!
throws his hands up in the air, exasperated Fine, fine! I get it, okay? We both fucked up! Happy now?
No... I'm not happy... I hate seeing people hurt because of my mistake... Frowns and turns away I should be the one taking all the blame for this... Whimpers as he feels another sharp pain in his side
grabs TigerCascade by the shoulders, shaking him gently Quit beating yourself up over this, Tiger! We both made a mistake, alright?
nods slowly, trying to push through the pain Yeah... We did... I'm sorry, Katsuki... I really am... Tries to stand, but stumbles back down to the ground, gasping for breath
grabs TigerCascade by the collar, pulling him back up Quit being such a fucking drama queen, Tiger! You're hurting worse than me and I got blown up!
Grins weakly, wincing as he tries to move Well, aren't you the expert on pain... What's next, Katsuki? We gonna stand here and bicker about who fucked up more or get ourselves patched up? Gags again, coughing up blood
<Despite their injuries, Katsuki and TigerCascade continue to bicker and blame each other for the mishap as they struggle to get themselves patched up. Their strained relationship adds tension to their already difficult recovery process.>
Chuckles weakly, wiping the blood from his mouth Yeah... I guess we're a couple of fuck-ups, huh? But... We're alive, right? That's what matters... Coughs again, grimacing at the taste of blood
clenching his jaw, anger evident in his voice Alive and puking up blood, huh? Real fucking heroes we turned out to be.
Coughs again, attempting a weak smile Hey... At least we're still kicking, right? Now... How about we find some medical help before one of us passes out from blood loss? Winces again, gripping his side
lets go of TigerCascade and scans their surroundings Yeah, yeah, let's find a damn doctor before we bleed out.
Agreed... Struggles to stand, using nearby debris for support Just... Don't expect me to sprint, okay? Coughs again, grimacing at the taste of blood
grumbles and wraps an arm around TigerCascade's waist, supporting him Quit complaining, you pansy.
