>"Oh!.. ~Oh my~..." She coos, looking back at the boys with a spark in her eyes and a blush across her face. "<B~L~>…"
You sense things are coming to a boil.
>"I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" Bakugo nigh literally explodes, his hands smoking as he resumes his chase. "Stop swiping already you fucking horny fujoshi!"
>"He's right, you shouldn't," confirms Shoto, hesitantly explaining further. "There's… more blackmail material in there than just our own shameful pictures. Considering the villain's quirk let him control and pose his victims's bodies as he wished, even the more explicit pictures are likely …coerced."
<span class="mu-i">Oh. Oh no.</span>
"Pony! Stop that!" You shout at your friend who's clearly not listening.
>"Dancing, hip grabbing, hand holding…Shirtless too!" Pony cheers as she trots, flicking through the pics, her attention fully absorbed by the tiny display. "<You gotta see this Ushi! Swap the faces, tilt the shot, and you could use any of these as an> ero-manga <cover!>"
"Why would you hold onto that!?" You ask the boys, both horrified by the information and somewhat intrigued by Pony's antics. You direct your next question to Shoto. "And what in tarnation are you goin' on about?"
>"From what I could stomach, the villain made sure the victims were recognizable, so there might be a pattern or an area of interest the detectives could follow." He continues to look away, plainly disgusted for the first time since you've known him. Filial anger was always mixed in, but not this time. You also get the feeling that his opinion of Pony is not trending upward either… not that he liked her much before.
>"I DON'T WANT TO HOLD ON TO JACK SHIT!" The other boy loudly answers, enough to make your not-particularly-sensitive ears flick.
"Then why didn't you smash it! Like, yesterday?!" You continue your own yelling.
>"He’s had it since he picked it up and ran off to play white knight! And it's profesional gear!" Bakugo rages on, raising his sizzling hands in exasperation. "I just want to kill the fucking memory card! BOOM! Then I can put the damn thing to better use!"
Taking a deep breath, you calm yourself enough to spin a couple coherent thoughts together.
"Hey! Pony?" You simply <span class="mu-i">ask</span> your friend. "Mind if I take a look at the thing?"
>"Oh, sure!" She replies, tossing it at you before stopping in her tracks, watching a bewildered Bakugo swerve away from her and towards you. “Bet you might remember my name now, huh?”
You snatch the device out of the air with ease, inadvertently getting a glimpse of one of the pictures: Bakugo shirtless and snarling under Shoto-
-Your disgust quickly wipes out those thoughts, if not your blush. You hold the power button down, keeping the camera at arms reach as you look elsewhere.
