Incomprehensible

------------------------------------------------------

"Unbelievable. I don't how I can get through to you. Even after I went as far as to plead with you to stay put, you just refuse to listen.
Are you starting to see why I didn't trust you with what I told you, Hikisaku? If not, then you're a lost cause."

Those were the very first words Aizawa spoke upon entering the hospital room Hikisaku and Uraraka found themselves in an hour ago. He went straight to lecturing her, and it's hard to blame him for choosing to do so.

He stood in front of their hospital room's only door, keeping guard in case Hikisaku chose to disobey further.

"And you." He started up again, whipping his head to the left to leer at Uraraka.

"I've said it before, but these siblings are a terrible influence on you. Or that's what I thought. I'm starting to believe that you're just as insane as the two of them." Aizawa didn't hold back on her either.

Uraraka didn't respond. Her expression remained stagnant, but it was hardy. What she had been told didn't bother her in the slightest.

In the awkward silence she left, Hikisaku decided to speak.

"I understand. My words mean nothing to you. But the only reason for that is because I feel the same way about yours.
I couldn't accept what you said, even if you really believed that the raid would succeed. I acted on my own because I couldn't trust in you." Hikisaku expressed herself a lot more eloquently than normal. Taking a beating, or more accurately, dishing one out, calmed her nerves substantially.

But a bitter anger remained deep inside, waiting to be unleashed.

"And I was right to not listen." She added, destroying the credibility of her earlier words. If they ever had any to begin with.

"How so?" He asked harshly in tone, and sarcastically in cadence.

"O.K., let me ask you this, since no one has cared to tell me: Did you catch Masahiro? And do you think that, without my interference, he wouldn't have gotten away?" She asked him, analyzing his face before she even finished speaking.

As she expected, Aizawa remained silent. The duration he spent simply staring at her shocked Hikisaku, however. He was at a loss for words, but it wasn't because he was unsure of what to say, as he did know what it would be.

He wanted to gloss over this part of the conversation by changing the subject. The problem was, there were a lot of very good subjects to choose from.

"I heard that you spoke with Psycher. What did he say to you?" Is what he decided to ask.

"Is Throwback here? I want to speak to him first, if possible." Hikisaku made her demand.

As if she were in any position to be making any. She was lying completely flat on her hospital bed to avoid putting pressure on her newly restored ribcage. To maintain eye contact with Aizawa this entire time, Hikisaku had her head lifted at a nearly 90 degree angle.

As such, Aizawa completely ignored her, and looked back in Uraraka's direction, to the girl who could manage to sit up on her bed.

"What did Psycher say?" He decided to ask her, knowing she'd be the more likely of the two to answer.

".....Let us talk to Throwback. We want to hear for ourselves if he has anything to say." Uraraka chose to demand from him as well.
