".. Why do you want me to leave you alone so bad? I mean, I'd kinda expect you'd like some sorta company."
"Well, you'd expect wrong. Now back off."
"... Come on, can I please just-you know, know why you don't want me to stick around?"
"No. Now fuck off."
"Welp, now im gonna stick around."
And-he burst into flames.
"Todoroki, FUCK OFF!"
"... No."
...The firm way he just-said it-...SHOTO SERIOUSLY JUST G-
"Im not gonna go, because I'm worried about you. Do you know how it felt just-waiting for you, hoping I could talk with you? See if your okay? .. I care about you Kaz. Got it?"
"HF-No...no no no-c-can't you see you have to stop this?"
He shook his head, a few mascara-stained tears dripping down his face
"... Kaz-, your crying.. -sigh-, Can you just.. tell me why it's bad for me to care about you?.."
He would've wiped the tears away, but he sorta, assumed if he touched him he would've.. you know-
Actually, pretty sure it would've done the opposite of what he thinks-
"No-because if I tell you that, you're just going to care more-because of course you have to be so Satan-damned heroic-"
