[He'd almost be excited to see that fast food bag if he wasn't in such a horrible situation right now. He's already starting on the first burger by the time Shigaraki has started the whole set-piece of putting on the news.]

[It's surreal to see. It doesn't feel real. Very little about this situation had felt real. Still, there was the evidence right in front of him. It'd be illogical to deny it. Neither he or Bakugou are mentioned by name. He tries not to appear entirely affected by it. He tries to keep his expression flat as he chews.]

[The numbers were still sketchy. Students were being admitted to the hospital. Still, it didn't sound like there was any confirmed casualties. That makes his shoulders relax every so slightly.]

[That evens out the distaste of seeing all these talking heads speculating. There was criticism of the school, criticism of the leadership... apparently it was already decided that within a day or so the school would have a press conference regarding the issue. Well, at least he doesn't have to face the cameras.]

Our attempts to limit information failed. You were still able to locate our updated location. [He can't expect to be told how, not with just a handjob to prove his loyalty.]

We could have cancelled it entirely but, like with the sports festival before it, we didn't want to show weakness. [A pause for another bite, a drink of water. There wasn't a lot of hesitation as he spoke. He wasn't above admitting his own flaws. Admitting and analyzing flaws was the only way to prevent them from happening again. And, of course, he was determined there would be an "again" for him.]

If we'd even brought our foot down and nixed the test of courage we would have been more closely grouped to endure that attack, as well.
