Any manga readers? Cause ouchhhhh

Dabi POV: - a few moments earlier -

Everything is so completely fucked up.

If only I didn't leave the dancing shoes at home, cause this shit's about to get good!

I'll be the first to admit I got things off to a slow start tonight, but we all make mistakes, don't we? Can't blame me. Damn Grape had me shell shocked with all her unexpected plans tonight. The bitch is definitely good at keeping me on my toes. Probably one of the reasons she continues to plague my brain like a damn disease.

But, after Roach Boy decided to open his big mouth at the bar and say some stupid shit, I feel enlightened as fuck right now, up on my feet and lurking my way through this crowd like your favorite little snake.

He only left the bar five minutes ago. Shouldn't be too hard to find him-and since he's at her beck and call like a touch starved piece of shit, I have no doubt that finding him means finding her also.

Smart, huh? I know. Whoever said differently can suck my dick. Maybe they'll swallow some of my knowledge if they're lucky.

Ha! There's that wit and shit. See, I'm back. 'Dabi's' back and heated as ever now-hitting pretentious fucks in the shoulder with every step and a feral, steaming grin glued to my face as I search for that familiar head of purple.

Hell, I feel reckless as fuck still. I don't even know what I'll do when I find her. But, I know your clingy ass would love it if we found out together, so keep up and don't get in my way. Alright?

Still, it's hilarious, isn't it? 'Regret,' I mean. Shit's a funny thing, and it shows different on everyone. A moment of clarity for some. That 'shoulda, woulda, coulda' snap of the fingers for others. Hell, it's probably even powerful enough to set fuckers like me on the 'better path.'

Right? Blah, blah, blahhh....

And I know what you're probably thinking to yourself. This is that moment, isn't it? The moment I finally turn everything around? Where I finally change and redeem myself?

Heh.

If that's what you thought, I'm so excited to disappoint you.

After all, redemption only works when there's actually something to 'redeem,' so already...the idea has failed. Aw. Does that makes you sad...

How many times do you and I have to go through this? Huh? How many times are you gonna keep getting your hopes up thinking this is 'it?' Stop thinking that, okay? It's honestly so fucking annoying.

Though, I guess if it pisses you off....on second thought, keep getting your hopes up.

The funny thing is, I do actually have regret right now. Oh ho, I have regret. God, it's searing hot in my heart right now, threatening to burst through my chest and incinerate the entire room to ash. I wish it would. Definitely would upstage the bedazzled bitch's party!

But, like I said, regret looks different on everyone. And, even after everything that's happened tonight...seeing Violet show up here with my brother on her arm...to watching her leave me in the dust and ignore me....to her probably hooking up with another man-my fucking enemy, of all people...I can still fully guarantee that what I actually regret about the situation isn't anything you're expecting.

My blood pumped hot in my chest as I continued scanning my rubbed red eyes around the crowded room, seeing my vision closing in like a tunnel as my unhinged emotions ate me alive like a fucking drumstick.
