So I should just out who killed Nona, got it. [ He won't because he's not that type of guy but man. The touch helps, and he eventually settles, lacing their hands tighter momentarily before relaxing. ]

It's kinda funny, but yeah I'd rather spend time doin' things with you. I'm not just gonna forget the pact we made, though I'm sure they'll tell you otherwise. We can't take everyone with us when this place explodes, but why would we in the first place?

They can survive on their power of love, maybe.

[divector]

That didn't work out when they were trying to solve the cases. [ He grins at that, getting it's a joke, but honestly, it would be pretty funny to see the group twist themselves into pretzels over it. ]

But yeah, a vacation was never meant to last forever in the first place. Might as well end it all with fireworks.

[ Who knows what'll happen, but he knows where he stands. That's why he made that pact in the first place. ]

And video games. Maybe it'll be even whackier than the one you were talking about.

[handsheld]

I'll give 'em hell, I promise.

[ He knows he doesn't need to say that, but this is the current mood. Well, evil plottings and video games.

They've reached the "hideout" as it is (it's roughly small room sized and this time he bothered to make the laziest stone bench known to man), so time to get down to the fun stuff. ]

Trade you my hand for something else?

[divector]

Looking forward to that as well.

[ He doesn't dislike the group, but that doesn't equal like, indeed. (Ah, but he does like the Toucans...) That aside, the snacks he's levitating float down to the ground somewhere that won't get in the way.]

Hmm, with what?

[handsheld]

Two things. One's not loot this time. And the other I said I'd make it up to you, remember?

[ That probably doesn't help at all in explaining but. oh well. ]

[divector]

Ah, yesterday? I remember we were talking about that after that sound.

[ He tilts his head to the side, wondering. ]

[handsheld]

Right.

[ He'll take his hand back now, because you need two to give things. Or at least two if you need to fish said things out of a bag.

First he pulls out a psp and two game cases which will remain a mystery for just a bit longer. Then he takes out one hoodie (size M) and... this ridiculous looking dog cupcake plush. One in each hand, obviously. ]

[divector]

Oh wow, how adorable.

[ Even if he did expect something surprisingly cute, somehow he never imagined a hoodie and a dog cupcake. But it makes a lot of sense considering their conversations, which just proves how wonderful he is at gift giving. ]

Thanks, I love them both already. [ A beat. ] Hmm, give me a second.

[ Without further ado, he temporarily takes off his coat so he can immediately wear the hoodie, humming all the while. Once he does, he twirls once in a practiced motion. ]

How's it look?

[ His tone is joking, but he's clearly having a lot of fun with this. ]

[handsheld]

[ These are things that shouldn't be said about Tomura Shigaraki, but he is a good listener so maybe that goes into it. And he reads the network, very obviously.

He's content with watching Ibuki, not understanding the concept of cute himself, but familiar enough with it to make a good guess. Kawaii culture and all. He smiles, laughing a bit at the twirl. ]

It looks pretty sweet.

[divector]

Great to hear.

[ He laughs, picking up his coat to wear loosely over the hoodie. Then he picks up the cupcake plushie and sits down on the bench with a flourish. Placing it on his lap, he turns towards Shigaraki with a grin, other hand gesturing towards the spot next to him. ]

So what are those games you pulled out?

[handsheld]

[ He sits down of course, cross legged because what is sitting properly ever, poking the plush with one finger once he's settled. ]

For a fighting game I got... Mortal Kombat. It's your standard fighter, 'cept the specials are called fatalities which let you pull out your opponent's skull or flay them alive. There's a lot of gore, it's pretty neat.

[ He approves, as someone who is very familiar with gore. ]

The other game is called Katamari Damacy. Basically you're this little guy who's job it is to rebuild the stars, and to do that you roll things up, making a bigger and bigger ball as you go. First you can only get small things like thumbtacks, but you can work your way up to rolling up people, buildings, cities...rollin' up the people is hilarious cuz they yell the whole time!

[divector]

I'm surprised that managed to get made. Interesting what sort of things people come up with. Fatalities, huh? I guess I'll just have to see how many varieties they thought of. [ He doesn't look bothered by the idea, peering curiously at the small CDs. But he looks back at Shigaraki when he continues with his quick explanation on Katamari Damacy. ]

Hmm, now that I think about it, that kind of sounds like what I ended up doing against that Nomu.

[ Not that it ended up working, but he did think it was pretty fun to put together the debris like that. ]

[handsheld]

[ A grin. ]

It's not supposed to be sold to kids, but that just makes it more popular. Wanna start with Katamari then? You can just pretend you're gonna fight a baby Nomu at the end.

[divector]

Hmm, I'm a little more interested in what they did with Mortal Kombat actually. But I'll definitely keep that in mind when we start that one up.

[ Seriously, those fatalities sound like something normally reserved for horror dramas? He's curious about how they pulled it off, even with how interesting Katamari sounds as well. ]

[handsheld]

That eager to see heads explode, huh. [ This is both a joke and pure Shigaraki. He'll pop Mortal Kombat into the PSP then, starting the game up and loading into the character select screen. ]

Me or you first? Since there's only one PSP.

[divector]

Certainly curious, yeah. [ He leans even closer towards to Shigaraki to get a better look at the PSP, arms still around the dogcake plushie. ]

Hmm, you first? Since this is the first time I've seen a PSP. [ Not that he minds starting out, but with something as new to him as a PSP, he'd prefer to observe first. ]

[handsheld]

The controls are pretty much the same, just in a more compact package. [ But he nods, not minding going first or the leaning. Let's see... he picks Raiden because the classics, randomizing his opponent.

It's a fighting game so there's a lot of clicking of buttons but when he gets his opponent down to a sliver of HP... this sure is a fatality. Shigaraki laughs, of course. ]

Messy!! But kinda funny, even I don't usually see bodies explode like that.

[divector]

Technology can be amazing. [ He peers at both the fight on the screen and how Shigaraki handles the controls, all while occasionally cheering on like, well, a cheerleader. At least he isn't doing a play-by-play commentary like he did a few days ago.

But all fights have to come to an end. Boom, fatality! Ibuki chuckles as well when he witnesses that, staring at the aftermath of the fight like it's a joke in motion. See you opponent, nice knowing you. ]

Wow, bye. That's one way to keep someone from getting back up. [ Which does seem to be the point, so kudos for that. ] Flashy, but if it works, why not?

[ Not like fights aren't messy by their nature anyway. ]

[handsheld]

Imagine tryin' to get that out of your hair, but if you're goin' for style points it's pretty sweet. [ ...hm. ]

Reminds me of what Overhaul can do actually.

[divector]

Ah, yeah, sweet as it is, cleaning the aftermath would be a pain...

[ He purses his lips at the thought. But yeah, let's not continue thinking about how to clean off body parts. ]

Huh, he sure can do a lot. I was shaking sand off for like an hour after last weekend.

[ Then there's whatever he did to Beelzebub in that one trial early on? Must be quite the power set. ]

[handsheld]

His quirk is stupid.

[ Better not to talk about that though for a bunch of reasons. ]

One more? [ He says this but he's already picked Subzero. ]

[divector]

[ He nods. Better for various reasons they don't. ]

Yeah, sure. Wonder what this one does? [ He doesn't mind watching him again though, smile returning to his face. ]

[handsheld]

He's an ice guy. There's someone I recently picked up who has a pretty similar quirk but I think they hate me.

[ He says this with his usual nonchalance, and besides there's much more interesting things to see like freezing someone and then popping their head off. ]

...I wonder if you'd even bleed like that after getting frozen solid?

[divector]

Must be fun at parties. [ Which is a thing to say when the only parties he's ever been part of were on this archipelago. Anyway, he tilts his head at that fatality, amused at the sight. ]

I've never met anyone with the ability to freeze someone. Frostbite reduces blood flow...so if someone's frozen solid, maybe it'd be a more extreme version of that? [ Now he's curious. ]

My first thought would be shattering though. The creators of this game sure have creative minds.

[handsheld]

[ A short laugh in agreement. His only experience with parties are League ones so... skewed in a similar way. ]

Mine too, but that's how my quirk works. At least it's flashy.

Wanna give it a go now? [ Holds his hand out to offer the psp. ]
