[this whole thing feels like a nightmare, but maybe it doesn't have to end that way. they have each other, even if it's only for bits of time for now. if Keigo wants to, he can join Dabi here for even longer than that. they just have to figure out how to get rid of endeavor.

Dabi knows he'll still get mad about this. he'll lash out and fall into a hole more than once. he knows he has to get over it but that's easier said than done. he just hopes Keigo understands.

there are times it might get even darker like tonight... but like always, Keigo is able to pull him out of it. maybe one day Dabi can be that for Keigo too, but right now he's just too messed up in his head.]

Don't want you to go back either. This'll be the last time, ok? We'll figure somethin' out.

[they need to talk about it. they can't ignore this any longer. maybe if they come up with a plan this won't seem so desperately painful.]

It ain't all you're good for, Keigo. You better fuckin' know that, alright? He doesn't fuckin know you. I do.

[More than anyone, he hopes.]

I'm yours. I'll always be yours.

[which is why he wanted to talk to Keigo about what he's been doing here, but they got so off track. maybe Keigo doesn't need to hear it though. maybe it doesn't matter anymore.]
