[He wasn't expecting such an honest answer and it catches him briefly off guard.]
You know what my goals were for attacking you at USJ, right? [Killing All Might namely.] Kill All Might and go home. I didn't know All Might wouldn't be there.
[He crosses his leg. Aizawa might have been right about a lot of things but Shigaraki was determined to correct him this time.]
I did care... you know I lost all my members in that attack. Everything I worked hard for ruined because I'd been lied to. About a lot of things. And I would have retreated with every last man that I could bring back. But I'd been shot by your fellow teachers who showed up. You can't continue a game if you get a game over.
[If it weren't for his immaturity, he'd sound pretty genuine. Like he actually cared for nameless thug who could shoot bullets out of his fingers or mourned the loss of sharky and the fish boys. Somedays he did kick himself over losing that many game pieces in one gamble. But it was mostly a kid crying that his toys had been broken by the other kids after he'd started playing rough with their toys.
There's a small crackle from the TV. "Shigaraki Tomura."]
Hmm, Master?
[He spins in his chair to face the TV, unnecessary since it still only reads as SOUND ONLY.]
