"Fuck it, Lee I need a gun fit for a baby" Dabi told his neighbor, holding his daughter in his arms, after hearing about what had occurred while he was gone last night doing work for the league, he knew his daughter needed a gun more than ever now, and he apparently missed her first words because of his villain work.

"Never to young to have a gun" Lee smirked, fully on board with the plan to give a baby a gun, training her would be quite hard with her little baby hands but hey he wasn't opposed to the idea, and he did have a closet filled with guns, "so what type would you like?".

"Guns are a wonderful plan but she's one" Magne told the boys with a sigh, she on the other hand was against the idea to give an infant a gun, maybe when she was a bit older say three but for now she was against it, "I'll watch her along with Lee the two of us will take shifts, nobody is touching the child with us here, promise".

Lee frowned but he knew where the woman was coming from, having met her only thirty minutes ago. The two had hit it off quite quickly, honestly Lee looked like a woman but his pronouns were respected and he respected hers, she was a lady in his eyes no matter her muscle like appearance.

"Okay no guns" Lee stated holding his hands up, "But hear me out we give her a mini canon" Magne sent him a look from behind her sunglasses, "no mini canon's got it" he sighed in defeat, though he was still getting the kid a mini canon.

Dabi handed his daughter over to Magne whom took her with care, honestly if he didn't make it these two would make the perfect parents for her, they both had connections after all, though the twenty something year old hoped it wouldn't have to come to that, for he wanted to be there for every moment of his daughters life, the good and the bad.

"Seeing as Hand Fetish has me and the others meeting somebody tonight I'll hope you two can keep her safe" a look crossed over his face "though if anything happens make sure to call me" he told them, and they knew he was serious.

"We promise" and with that Dabi placed a kiss on his daughters head and made his way out, he really hated the fact Shigaraki was working him like a dog lately, hopefully the meeting tonight would pass by quickly and nothing bad would happen.

Taking a sip from his can of cheap off brand beer, a man leaned against a wall his black locks being blown by the wind, "you chickened out?" he questioned the figure that sat on the pavement next to him, face and body covered, "and here I thought you feared nothing".

"I fear one thing" the figure spoke up "and that is a man holding a gun to the back of my head" they moved their hand letting the shadows dance, "I may fear our boss more but I have to face reality at a point, is what we are doing right?".

"No part of this is right" the man spoke, taking a sip from the can, "nothing we do is right, I know the boss wants his payment but I draw the line of stealing a gods damn kid" he crushed the empty can tossing it in the trash can nearby, "Were both lucky she's not the one in charge of this".

"My sister is busy keeping the bird brained one occupied" the figure spoke up "if she knew I was the one whom murdered the one she had fallen for on bosses orders none the less I'll be killed, I'd rather take the bullet than face either of them", they frowned from under their mask, "This will never get easier will it?"

"No, it never well, it only ever gets worse" he told his friend serious "we have no option in the matter, never did and never will for life sucks and that's the moral of reality" he pushed himself off the wall "You want to go get some pizza, on me?"

They nodded accepting the offer, getting off the pavement they followed after their friend, they were told not to give in to emotion, they were taught to follow orders, but the latest order had them thinking, had them wondering, was it all even worth it?

Was following that man's orders even worth it anymore?
