It's deeply unsettling the way he relishes in her discomfort, and Ochako has no idea it's partially because of his former familiarity with a her from another world. A world that's not Nippon. Funny, that - how they're both fro different worlds, and Ochako would relish in getting to talk to someone about the experience (that's not Bakugou), but the other person is Shigaraki. Maybe one day she'll figure it out.
Ochako's eyes are glued on that hand, and she unconsciously holding her breath and tensing up as her mouth shuts tight. She can't help it, it wasn't a lie when she said she was absolutely terrified of him. His quirk is devastating, she's seen what it can do, the destruction it can cause. Not how it's evolved, not yet, and not knowing how much more terrifying he is might be a mild blessing. Her pace stutters a bit, mostly because her legs feel heavy, but she needs to get him far away from this market square...where many people gather. Any direction, just as long as it's far from people...give them a chance to escape, because her answer is--
"Eh?" That was, uh...not the 'deal' she expected. At all. Blinking rapidly, starting at him just a washed up carp, Ochako shakes her head and tilts her head to one side. "You--...I..." Holy crap, this is a hell of a thing to shoot her in the face with. Ochako stops outright, taking in a deep breath.
"That's not a decision I can make on my own. Because I know I'll keep my word: I won't attack you, or Dabi, or whoever else shows up from the League unless they do something to someone - anyone, not just me and my friends - to hurt them, but I can't speak for someone like Bakugou, and I frankly don't trust any of you all not to go against your word when we walk away."
