NOBODY’S LISTENING // trying to walk

ATBASH CIPHER

i know i should stop believing
i know there's no retrieving

Atbash flinched a bit at Izuku's tone, immediately knowing why he had said her name in such a way. She shouldn't be refusing, she knew. She should let Nui assist her, regardless of whether or not Stryker may punish the both of them later. "You let fear control your actions." Both Stryker and Quantum of Sunhaven had said that, and the words stung. But that's just it - the truth hurt. Atbash didn't look Izuku in the eye as he looked down at her, and simply stared at her paws. "I-I'm fine. You guys just need to worry about you know." She didn't want to outright say 'get rid of The Pitt' mostly due to the fact that they could be listening, but also due to the fact that there... wasn't much of a resistance right now. Understandable, since The Pitt seemingly had no weaknesses, but all groups did, regardless of who led. Hell, Stryker acted like he was the leader of the damn place but supposedly he wasn't. That was something to start with, right?
