[ Dabi hadn't really intended for things to go this way. Not at all. It was his own itch he wanted to scratch and then somehow it turned into this concern (?) for Shigaraki, and something that could be good for the both of them. Maybe. He's still wary about all of it, even though he's falling in deep somehow.
Shigaraki is different from anyone he's ever known, and maybe that makes all the difference. ]
I can do my job no matter what, don't worry.
[But he's already settling in for sleep, his eyelids growing heavier. He's closer than the other night, because they're on one mattress now, but even closer than when they were in his room. He doesn't turn his back to Shigaraki, he just stays where he is. Close enough to touch, but Dabi is the only one doing the touching. Eventually he does let go though, if Shigaraki wants to take his hand back and he quickly falls asleep, unlike the night before. He has nothing on his mind this time.]
