Uh-huh. [ Again it's not dismissive, just his version of affirmation. ]
If that's how you feel that's fine. You're probably gonna get bugged about it though, that explosion guy was starin' at me. [ Shuda, his name is Shuda, but Shigaraki can't be bothered with names for some people. ]
[ Explosion guy...? There's a moment of elevator music in Lacus' head before she's run through the powersets enough to land on a person with explosion powers who was present at her breakdown. Yes, Shuda was right next to her, placing a hand on her shoulder. That makes sense. ]
... ah. Well, I doubt anybody will be surprised now, if I reveal that I am fond of you.
[ The only benefit of Lobeliagate is that this friendship is objectively less awful, probably. ]
But even if I am confronted on the matter, it would be for the best to continue keeping our in person meetings a secret.
Mhm... You could be feeding me extra information about the movements of potential killers? Or about locations on this island, I suppose. Information could go a long way in closing the gap created by my low level of fighting prowess.
Ah! That is certainly true. Though at the time, I did not think I would be gaining access. What I took from it was the knowledge that you weren't on the same island, though.
[ Which she did share with the group, so nobody can fault her for anything. Ta-dah!! ]
[ At that (or maybe just at hearing his name said several times?), Mr Pink stirs in the sand, opening up his little earflaps. Lacus frowns and him and immediately puts a hand on his head. ]

There's a second or two of staring because "fondness" is kinda... but he lets it pass without comment. ]
I don't wanna deal with anyone annoying either. I think most of them got the message the first week and just bug Overhaul which works for me.

We talk a reasonable amount - if anyone asks, that is all they need to know, then.
[ She's not about to spill Shigaraki's personal matters to everyone here unless they may somehow become relevant to their continued survival. ]
I'm not receiving any advantage from you anyway.
[ Lacus hopes the others will recognize the truth of that, if it comes down to it. ]

[ It's an honest question. ]

It's not that complicated I just go wherever I want.

[ He's kind of like a cat, that way. ]
Speaking of, do you decide which islands you allow us on or is that something the island's mechanism does on its own in response to sacrifice?

But we're the admins, we're not gonna just let you walk into the core no matter how many buttons you push. [ Maxeta from tomorrow says Hi. ]

[ That's totally the only reason here. ]

Mr. Pink can fight me if he loves it that much.
no subject
No picking fights! Bad boy!
[ Mr. Pink, cheerfully: ] Damn it!
no subject
[ But he shrugs because a tiny robot isn't a fight. Most things aren't fights with him anymore. ]
Anyway, I need to scout more before I fall asleep.
[ He yawns. Weekends are long for everyone. ]
no subject
I've kept you long enough, yes. Goodnight, Tomura. And pleasant dreams.
[ She won't be having any of those, so she's absolutely not going to bed. ]

[ BUDDY?? ]
I'd say you should, but... since I am planning on acting similarly, I'll let it slide.

[ He knows this isn't the reason and while he's not judging it's still—
his sleep crimes are just engrained in him at this point. ]
no subject
[ She's absolutely been spending way more time outdoors than in the arcade, of course, but this is for the bit. ]
Maybe when things have calmed down, you can come test me.
no subject
[ She gets a lazy wave folded into an amused smile. And then he's off to commit more sleep crimes. ]
