She scowled at him, grip tightening even more-she wasn't killing him...she wanted him to talk.
Oh that was a bad fucking move. A bad, fucking, move. Pure, unadulterated hatred filled her eyes, as she scowled, letting out a strained angry noise-like she couldn't make anything louder or longer- the smoke wrapped itself higher around him-filling his throat and choking him. He couldn't fucking breathe he couldn't talk-he was actually going to die.
Now, he was a bit worried.. like he said earlier, he wasn’t scared of death. But the way of dying was.. different, that smell of smoke, the feeing of it filling his lungs.. that’s what made him terrified.. through chocked breaths and gags.. he was able to get out-

“*cough cough, cough..*, J-Jesus f-f-fucking Christ! T-that’s how you treat your god damn h-hostages-?! That’s h-how you get your damn-?!….

… How did-.. How did he know she KNEW him..!?
“…”
.. Seems like the both of them were having problems, Dabi.. having practically a break down from his past things.. And Kem, well.. you know her side.. You could see the two of them just, “sorta” staring at each other, Dabi.. eyes filled with tears as the smoke began to face, as his fire was no longer there.. and Kem, having problems even taking a single Breath sometimes..
.. Second piece of the puzzle there.. His own eyes widened slightly, and while he wasn’t supposed to… He went over to her and crouched down.. cupping her cheeks for a moment.. before hugging her..
“H-Hey hey hey..! C-Calm down-!.. Shh Shh.. c-calm down.. I-I’m s-sorry, I didn’t m/mean to be l-l-like that..-“
