[well there's still new landmarks to explore, new teammates (and new ragged individuals) to meet. occasional gunfire's been resounding through the woods sometimes, scaring birds up into the air and sending wandering pygmidillos in the meadow askitter.

what are you up to this fine day?]

[Summoning water above Dabi's head so it can fall on him like someone upending a large bucket.]

[RUDE!!!]

--so you guys got wind quirks and water quirks? That's damn annoying.

[strateelgic]

[Dropping water on someone is so much more entertaining than aiming it straight at them.]

I'm not sure what you mean by a quirk, but I'll assume it's related to your own abilities.

Are you feeling particularly hot headed today? Could I perhaps get you something cold to drink to cool you down?

[imblue_dabi_me_daddy_die]

I was just trying to warm myself up. I'm homeless after all, ain't you being a bit uppity?

[strateelgic]

If you're looking for a place to stay, setting your options on fire seems a bit counterproductive, doesn't it?

[He lowers his pen and raises his other hand, causing vines to snake out of the ground around Dabi's feet, growing up toward his arms.]

You could always ask nicely for someone to build you a roof.

[imblue_dabi_me_daddy_die]

[can generate enough heat to disintegrate those, steam hissing off him]

Aw, would you do it? With your weak little vines here?

[strateelgic]

For the right price. I could even make it visually appealing

Though it wouldn't be of much use to you if you just burned it down afterward.

[Water from above again!]

[imblue_dabi_me_daddy_die]

[mother fucker!!]


--y'know, I'm starting to feel like you don't wanna really help me at all.

[strateelgic]

Don't be ridiculous, I am nothing if not helpful.

[This time the water will have a few chunks of ice in it.]

Right now I'm helping you find your way out of our field.

[imblue_dabi_me_daddy_die]

[THE ICE IS JUST INSULTING]

No, no, I think I like it just fine right--

[and then Shadow Fiend mcfuckin KO's him]

[pleasantmisery]

[while the Mysterious Pyromaniac is distracted talking to Pond Fiend, Shadow Fiend will be sneaking up behind him with her shepherd's staff, trying to get close enough to knock him out with a bonk to the head]

[imblue_dabi_me_daddy_die]

[getting ready to BURN AN EEL--

lol jk she knocks him unconscious in one blow]

[pleasantmisery]

[sorry not sorry for that duck egg he's gonna wake up with later]

Whew, glad we got that taken care of! But what do we do with him? We can't even tie him up, he'll just burn through the vines.

[catposting]

[ driveby laughter ]

What if we set him on fire?

[strateelgic]

Surely we can be more creative...

[pleasantmisery]

That sounds a lot like killing him, but slowly, and I'd wanna have a vote on murder.

Though if we do murder him, I'd rather do it quickly.

[catposting]

[ answering u both ]

You really think he'd die from a few burns?

[pleasantmisery]

Well--probably not. Maybe. Depending on how bad the burns are. We don't even know if the weird black collar guys can heal themselves...

It's just, you know, I'm a little concerned that he might just try to set us on fire again? Though if we make ourselves too much of a pain to bother with... I guess we can try that out first. What's it called--deterrents?

[strateelgic]

A truly vindictive person will keep on coming regardless. And we know death isn't going to do much here.

[pleasantmisery]

That's true. If we're gonna kill him, it'd better be some time when it'll stick. So I guess all we can do for now is make ourselves too much trouble to fuck with. Or see if Red'll make our barn fireproof. Both? Probably both.

[finalbows]

...It's too we can't just strap him to the barky Lily and call it a day.

[pleasantmisery]

I mean, we can, through the power of magic vines. We just can't make him stay strapped to whoever the barky Lily is.

[finalbows]

_{[ ... ]}

He was easy enough to distract into a chase... I wouldn't mind diverting the river in the future if nothing sticks as a deterrent, but that'll be rather destructive in and of itself. ...and... I won't always be on hand...

_{[ you just say that because Danfer Dodgeball was fun, Angel devil. ]}

[pleasantmisery]

Easy to distract's good to know... I mean, it was awfully easy for me to sneak up on him. So I guess that's one strategy to keep in mind.

[finalbows]

_{[ crosses his arms and thinks... ]}

Tie him up, put a weight on his leg, and leave him floating in an inner tube in the middle of the river.

I'd say blindfold him, as the sway of the water would disorient him and possibly keep him from easily aiming his spells if restraint doesn't deter his abilities...

But some fool may be more like to take pity on him and release him if we go that far.
