[ Shouto finds it interesting. It growled at Kizu when she approached, the problem is she's a reflection of him. She wasn't afraid of it the same way he's not afraid of his brother. But yes, probably harder to sneak a picture with his omen around, which is sad for him. He'll just be a pest one day and ask Touya for a picture with his omen. Maybe that won't end badly for him.
Ah, yes. Together they make one brain cell. At least when it comes to this. He will be very confused by his reaction and think that he asked him wrong. Why else would he react that way? Funny thing is, Shouto has been shopping for a futon exactly once before. The last time he bought his! He's practically an expert! Don't worry, he'll take care of everything. You just pick the futon you like... that is of course unless you want a western bed then... well, they can navigate that together. ]
A mercy killing is still killing. [ He points out. ] I... [ His mouth presses together tightly, the next words difficult to admit but true nonetheless. ] I considered you a lethal fighter too for some time. Like some of the Hunters, I don't work with.
That's why... [ He swallows, throat dry. ] I thought you were going to kill my brother, as a mercy, and call it justice. But he isn't a monster, he's human, just like you.
[ It was murder in his eyes. The last time someone put one of his brothers in danger, he'd gone Plus Ultra to save him. He kept his head back then, but those were different circumstances and he had back-up, four against one minor villain. Shouto viewed him as a lethal fighter between the time they fought the Akuma and the time he found him struggling to ram his sword through his brother.
He's known so many since joining the Hunters it was merely another layer of complexity to add to their already complicated interactions. He accepted it the same way he accepted things he couldn't change about people, but it left a distance between them that made it easier for him to disengage with him. ]
I don't see you that way anymore.
[ He makes sure to add, looking straight at him through the omni as the night creeps around him, casting him in shadow. ]
You cleanse corruption, you don't cause it. You don't kill.
[ A difficult lesson learned, one that will always stay with him. It's why he doesn't outright lump Megumi with the lethal Hunters. He needs more information before he can fully make up his mind, even after witnessing him decapitating the Huntsman. Allen's description of his powers receives a nod. He's earned the benefit of the doubt from him, and so by his word alone, he marks Megumi as a cleanser, like Allen, instead of a killer like Dabi. ]
