Date: 7/16/22 07:29 (UTC)why do you think he asked shouto for a few more jars in the meantime between arrival and now? thanks for the restock, little brother!
wolf takes a seat where it is, content to watch its master continue to beat the man even further. it's not often that touya got physical with someone outside of grabbing them for a close-range burn. he's isn't the most physically strong person. but he still has enough strength in that lanky body with wire-taut muscles to knock a full-grown man down. streets are a bitch, ya know.
wolf opts not to bother its master with the message, content to let shouto watch. that face is starting to make less than positive noises now too. though touya appears to be getting winded from the exertion, finally sitting back on his haunches and panting through a delirious grin.]

Date: 7/16/22 07:35 (UTC)AND HOW MANY MORE DID HE GIVE YOU?!!
Devastated by the scene, the fire sputters out, and Shouto starts spinning out, streaking across the sky like a falling star burning up in the night. A little busy trying to activate his quirk and not, you know, DIE! He doesn't exactly get the chance to say anything more until a blast of red shoots out from his hands, regaining control of himself far too close to the ground.
He switches over to ice, generating it before him, sliding down the embankment until he hits a canopy of trees. He uses them to reinforce his ice, stabilizing it by giving it something solid to hold its weight. Stabilized once more, he turns back to the scene. Catching a glimpse of his brother in the background and calls out to him, hoping he can find him before things get worse. ]
Touya! Where are you?!
I'm just hearing "Scooby-Doo!! Where are youuu?!"
Date: 7/16/22 08:22 (UTC)how many highs? ... 5. how many jars? in just these short days... less than 1. how many more did he give? lets say... another batch, no more than two at least. probably leftovers from shouto's first batch.
attitude side-effects aside, the anti-corruption aspect (even if assumed) are a bonus.
if one can get past this current horrifying scene. dabi leans back on the man's legs, looking at his fist in the faint light as the blood drips from his knuckles. most of it's his victim's, but some of it might be his own. busted knuckles and all. he doesn't seem at all bothered by the event, more obviously enjoying this momentary mr. hyde spree of violence. usually he's never physically violent, so the release to do so is pretty thrilling.
not paying attention to his little brother sputtering out like a rocket in the sky somewhere or his icy save shunting him back across the air before hitting the trees. if it's any good news for shouto, however, wolf opts to take advantage of its slightly-growing personality and actually speak to the young man.]
He just started. This is number one.
[before sending shouto the area they're in. sorry, shouto, but you're gonna have to take a lantern jump.]
We got some work to do now~
Date: 7/16/22 09:00 (UTC)Less than one jar over five of these encounters... oh god. He didn't think they'd be that potent.
Shouto has seen worse in his last year here in Trench and finds himself a little more accepting of the violent ways of the world than he was when he first arrived. That still doesn't mean he likes it and finds himself worrying at the sight of blood dripping from his knuckles!
Are they still breathing?! Please say yes! ]
One?!
[ You mean, he's just getting started?!
He latches onto those coordinates so hard, reaching for his lamp friend kept safe in one of his metal canisters. He pops out of his hold, and Kizu relays the district. A few moments later, the ice and they disappear.
Seconds later, they're across Trench, barrelling through the gates, and Shouto takes off toward the location at full speed. A few minutes after Wolf gives out his location, Shouto skids to a halt in front of that alleyway, heart pounding in his chest that has nothing to do with running physical exertion. ]
Touya!
touya-touya-nii, where are thee? got some things to do now~
Date: 7/16/22 21:44 (UTC)but all that aside... yeah, shouto loaded him up after touya asked. granted, touya's naturally violent despite his calmer demeanor, so that's probably why he doesn't need more than a sandwich amount of the jam to act on it. if it makes shouto feel any better, it's not like each use sends his older brother out on a rip-roaring rampage across town.
it's usually two or three murders or a fire or two before he burns off--literally--the effects. and that's just the violent ones. the other effects... yeah, he'll lock himself inside rather than go, for example, slut himself off. thanks, shouto. come over when he's got one of those lemons in his system.
the guy's still breathing, wetly, for now. but...]
It's usually two or three before he's done.
[wolf is impartial as ever. just as shouto skids to a halt in front of the alleyway, flare of ominous blue lights up all over the brick walls, back lighting the lanky form of his brother walking towards him, blood dripping off his hand with soft 'plip plap' drops on the ground. a smoldering remain behind him, blackened under the blue flames.
touya glances up at the call of his name-]
Shouto...
[and abruptly charges him. (yes, that is raspberry jam on his lips.) what makes matters worse is a now-very aggressive wolf is also tearing down the alleyway towards the young hero, eyes blazing and flames spilling blue out the corners of its salivating maw.]
Come on Touya-nii, I see you. Pretending you're a sinner~
Date: 7/17/22 05:44 (UTC)For god's sake! Stop eating the raspberries!!! He's cutting you off!
.... Oh no. He doesn't know about the other effects! Please tell him so he can burn his stash to the ground! Please, someone, tell him what kind of idiot he's been!
He skids to a halt at the entrance of the alleyway. His eyes flick from the wolf to his brother and back to the victim lying very still. His heart skips a beat, very real fear gripping him. Please don't be too late. He grabs one of the canisters from around his waist, where he stores the gauze, and starts running for the victim when he hears his name called out in a very deliberate manner, so different than he's used to. It draws his attention away from the victim to find his brother charging him! ]
Touya! Stop!
[ Only he doesn't stop, and even his wolf is tearing down after him. In a snap-second decision, he slams his hand down on the ground, and a burst of red flares up around him, sending him up into the sky, away from the charging omen. His eyes go to the victim at the end of the valley, wondering if he can grab him fast enough to get him out of there before Touya follows after him. No time to think, he acts, barreling down, he rockets to the end of the alley, snatching the victim mid-flight in a move he perfected from many hours of training under UA's best instructors and takes off toward the Lumenarium.
Addressing first the innocent bystander, then his brother. ]

Date: 7/17/22 20:17 (UTC)way less than his numbers back home.
and no. raspberries have strangely become an accustomed taste by now. he's rather fond of them. as for the other fruits, well... those took a bit more experimenting with and yeah, he tends to keep them in check. hell if he wants to go around being compelled to tell the truth to people he sees.
oy, he's not an idiot for not realizing the fruit was magical or emotionally-enabling. then again, it's trench. everything you put in your body should be suspect the first time.
unfortunately, this is not one of those first times and touya's risen violence quickly swarms to the forefront. not that he's needed much prompting to be violent towards shouto. charging him across the alleyway, there's clearing an even further unhinged light in the villain's eyes, fully intent on doing his brother some grievous bodily harm. wolf seems similarly disposed towards the same, almost rabid in its approach. odd, since it'd just minutes ago been talking so calmly.
stop!, he says. nah, he's been told to "stop" one too many times in his life and has no intention of listening to that shit anymore!
touya skids to a half as flames belch own around shouto, sending him rocketing into the air. he tilts his head up and back, following the other boy's arc across the sky. for a brief second, he pauses, questioning, and that's all the time shouto needs to pounce on the victim instead. (don't look at the face. kinda pulpy.) touya's eyes narrow at the sudden sweep, grabbing the man he attacked and carrying him off.
... he could chase him. unfortunately the jam also has the heightened sense of making touya's attention span shorter, and it's far easier to explode in anger over shouto escaping than it is to curb the violence and take an extended flight. plus with all the blood around the lumenarium, and touya in this state, his self-preservation instincts strangle him backwards.
instead, an angry shout rages after shouto and a stream of blue fire erupts from the alleyway towards him. but it's only a long-shot flamethrower blast, not taking into account for the guy's trajectory and curve. he'll feel the heat, but it'll miss. leave the entire alley a smoldering sea of blue flames.
at least touya's not following.
... but he might call shouto back in 2 hours or so, if the other doesn't reach out earlier.]
Fine! But he's driving! He doesn't trust that you won't plow into people who annoy you...
Date: 7/17/22 21:25 (UTC)When he reaches the Lumenarium, he makes sure to drop off the civilian with a waiting doctor and burns off any blood he got on him before racing out the doors in the same whirlwind that he arrived and blasts into the sky to return to the scene of the crime in search of his brother. Making himself an easy target, hovering low while trying to track down his brother. ]
Dammit, you can't be Fred, Shouto! You're too young!
Date: 7/17/22 22:28 (UTC)by the time shouto's back in the sky like a firefly, the alley is a smoldering mess, though most of the flames have gone out due to there being little to actually burn left now. touya's moved off to another place, though the jam has started to mute its affect on him. the aggressive stalking has left off into a more guarded prowl and he lingers beside a building.
nothing available to really kick start that aggressive drive unlike the last time. so when he notices that sudden shine in the air and looks up, blue eyes lock on shouto's figure in the sky. bastard's here again... tracking him down. hunting him.
congratulations. you found him.
there's a split second of a blue flash before the underside of a building's eaves abruptly launches out a roaring spiral of blue flames, heading straight for the young hero in the sky.]
