[As soon as the excitement starts, just before the ninjas hit the cable car they're occupying, there's a brief moment as Katsuki side-glances his friend. She'll see the way his eyes have lit the fuck up, with that familiar blood-thirsty thrill that he gets whenever the action kicks into gear. Likewise, he notes the excitement written in her face, and it only makes that grin carve further into his features before he's hauling himself over the seat in front of him to meet his first opponent head on.
It's chaos, after that, and Katsuki is fucking living in the midst of it. More than he has in what feels like an eternity. He hears her, as he smashes a head into the side of the cable car hard enough to knock the ninja out cold. The blond turns, to shout back to her, when another ninja does exactly what fucking ninjas do and pops up out of nowhere to attack him. It's reflex, the way Katsuki simply twists to catch the arm coming at him and throws the man--
Out the door. To plummet towards the boiling lake. Fuck. They might deserve a beat down into the next fucking century, for pulling a stunt like this, but Katsuki isn't a fucking murderer. And that... that will be a horrible death. He knows... he's had to plunge his hands into boiling water before to hone the strength of his explosions. It's not pleasant, and that was just his hands.
In a split second decision, Katsuki swan dives out the door after him, using a heavy blast to clear the distance as they fall, fast. One hand comes out to grasp the back of the ninja's top, and another blast is angled to turn them mid-air so that his back is to the water, before Katsuki heaves that motherfucker up towards the cable car. And even larger blast booms at the same time, to propel his assailant-turned-rescuee up towards it. Katsuki has just enough time to bellow out a command, with every ounce of power his lungs will allow.]
URAVITY!!! INCOMING!!
[Hopefully she hears that and can get to the fucker before he plummets back down to his death... because now he's got like two seconds to get himself the fuck out of dodge, lest he become a fucking lobster. Katsuki's hand comes out, and his palm touches the surface of that scorching water briefly before an even louderBOOM is emanating from under the chaos in the cable cars. The splash back gets him in a few places, but the adrenaline masks the searing pain from the burns as he flies back up. That last blast was a little too much for his right side, he finds himself wishing more than fucking ever that he had his damn costume, but... it is what it is. Compensating with his left hand, bigger blasts from that one to rocket himself back up, Katsuki grabs onto one of the ledge of the roof and hangs there for a second before hauling himself up to sit for a brief moment. The muscles in his arm are screaming at him, and that right there tells him what needs to happen next. She's out, with a fire extinguisher- fucking smart- so spotting Ochako isn't hard to do. He waits, for her to finish wrangling the ninja she is dealing with, before calling out to her. Rubbing at his right shoulder and bicep, that grin is still right in place.]
OI! I need your quirk! [If he can float, he won't have to use as powerful of blasts to navigate, and he might be able to save his arms from absolute hell later. It'll mitigate the risk of doing permanent damage to himself. Thank fuck Ochako is here... there couldn't have possibly been a better quirk for him to use to his advantage here.]
What's My MF'in Calling?!
