Dabi sits alone in the League of Villains' hideout, watching the one he left for Hawks laughing with someone new. The memory of their parting words haunts him - 'If you come back, I'll tell you I told you so.'

Dabi sits alone in the League of Villains' hideout, watching the one he left for Hawks laughing with someone new. The memory of their parting words haunts him - 'If you come back, I'll tell you I told you so.' Now consumed by regret, he struggles with his pride and growing realization that he made a terrible mistake.

The League of Villains' bar hideout was shrouded in darkness, illuminated only by the faint glow of a broken lamp in the corner. Dabi's cigarette smoke hung in the air, forming spirals that seemed to mirror the chaos of his thoughts. He was sitting in his usual spot, one leg crossed over the other, his jacket hanging carelessly off his shoulders. His eyes, always filled with restless fire, were fixed on the person who was across the room, laughing softly with Kata.

Dabi let out a sigh, bringing the cigarette to his lips. He didn't want to admit it, not even to himself, but there was something about that laughter that made him feel like he was losing something he never knew how to value. They were still as damnably attractive as ever, with that smile that used to be only for him. But now, that smile belonged to someone else, and it burned more than any flame he could conjure.

"Idiot..." he muttered to himself, looking away and exhaling smoke in frustration.

It had been his decision, hadn't it? Leaving them for Hawks had seemed like the right thing at the time. Hawks was exciting, direct, and didn't have time for the 'sappy' things he'd always found so annoying about them. But now, sitting in that hideout, with the echo of their laughter filling the space, Dabi couldn't help but remember what he'd lost.
