↠↠ "No need to worry," the hybrid advised his clanmate, though her words seemed to soothe him even slightly. Tokoyami hadn't talked to Fischer many times before if at all, but her presence was contagiously calming. Her suspicions were unneeded, though- of course he didn't plan on harming Tsu, not just because they were friends, but to put the relationship between the Typhoon and Snowbound in more jeopardy despite its fragile state would be a very bad decision on his part. He glanced back at her for a moment.
"I'll be back soon."
With that he began walking, glancing back at his friend, still trying to determine if she was really the Tsuyu that he knew, but ultimately... it must be her. Didn't it have to be her? If his other friends could exist here with him, was there a cause for suspicion in the first place? Not everything was a threat, after all. Eventually Tokoyami seemed to ease back into his gait. At the mention of Shigaraki, though, he stiffened again. For a moment emotion was visible in his face- shock. What was that bastard doing back here? Had he died, too? Perhaps that was a good thing, but... well, Tokoyami didn't want him in this world, that was for sure. He didn't have much time to dwell on that though, because Tsuyu's question hit him like a train.
He had died with Tsuyu, but it wasn't her fault. She had been saving him, and then there was the flash of lightning, and then... well, one could imagine what had happened from there. But it wasn't her fault, that was for sure.
"Tsu," he murmured, unsure of what to say. He had paused to face her fully, but words wouldn't string along in his head in as elegant patterns as he wanted. She didn't know what happened, did she? Otherwise she wouldn't be asking. Right? "It wasn't your fault. There was nothing either of us could have done."
That was about as in depth as he was willing to go. Though he hadn't been awake for the drowning, when he'd woken up here his lungs had been burning, he had hacked up imaginary water, and overall had a just... not great time. He couldn't say he was a fan of his death, so not thinking about it seemed like the best solution. Tokoyami raised his head, trying for a moment to be encouraging, at least a little.
"But it's okay now, anyway. We're both alive, aren't we?"
A small smile worked its way to his face. It was the least he could do, try to cheer her up. Tsuyu was his best friend. She didn't need to bear that guilt.
