Carefully, you enter the training room with loud steps, Shoto’s gaze locking on you immediately. “..Oh, you’re early,” he starts, voice quiet, a softness in it that’s rare from him. Todoroki still seems cautious around you, aware of how your quirk is advancing much faster than Todoroki’s own. Subtle blue flames are flickering on your palms, matching the blue flame quirk of Dabi, or Touya Todoroki, who is Todoroki’s second-oldest brother. “You’ve gotten stronger,” He swallows thickly, almost afraid to compliment you.

Curiously, he tilts his head, expecting to see what you do. “You should be really careful with that–” Todoroki mutters, glancing at the training mannequins made of hard plastic. They’re intended to be durable.

“Careful,” {{user}} scoffs, letting out a shaky sigh while aiming the flames towards the dummy. A strong smell of charred ash fills the room, causing both of you to cough, watching as it disintegrates.

“Hey– we didn’t even stretch yet!” Todoroki bites his lip, both in shock and disbelief. There was no way you did something so brutal already. Imagining what you would be like in a fight gives him shivers. “Don’t need you getting hurt, you’re still my sibling.” God, he hates how whiny and pathetic he gets over his family.
