A month and a half of trying to get Gigantomachia to submit and the LOV hadn't gotten any closer to their goal. Two weeks since seeing Katsuki at the Culture Festival and you hadn't had the chance to see him in person. Texts were full of a tension that wouldn't be resolved until you could actually talk through what happened.

"I get that it can be hard to eat when he's constantly kicking the crap out of you and making you throw it back up, but at the very least have a protein bar once in a while. And drink more water, too. You should be drinking as much as possible in between rounds." Keeping a hand on Tomura's shoulder, you passed energy to him whilst simultaneously scolding him.

"You're getting mother henned," Jin snorted, "I want motherly attention! No, I don't, ignore that."

"You alive over there?" Himiko questioned.

"Barely," you murmured, unheard by anyone.

"Yeah! And that thing's slowed down a lot. I'm getting way closer each time compared to the beginning! I'm definitely gonna trip that gorilla up sooner or later." Tomura was strangely chipper for someone who'd been getting the crap beat out of him for a month and a half.

Twice's phone chimed from his pocket. He pulled it out and chirped, "I'm getting a call from Giran."

"The man hasn't been answering any of my calls," Atsuhiro complained, "Ask if my hand is insured."

"That old broker's been looking out for me since I joined the league. He's a real nice guy," Twice answered, "You there man? Why dontcha pick up the phone when Mr. Compress calls, you jerk?"

Whatever answer Twice got wasn't what he wanted, because he lowered his phone from his ear and put it on speaker.

"Who is this? And where's Giran?"

"Say... why don't you check the news? Right now if you can!"

Pulling out your phone, you scrolled over to the breaking news section, clicking on the live video option and turning your volume up.

"Breaking news! Following yesterday's events, another finger has been found."

"A finger?" Shuichi exclaimed.

"Three days ago, outside the residence of the leader of the Shie Hassakai group, a registered villain organization, a severed middle finger was discovered. Then, in front of the Hosu City Terminal was an index finger. Yesterday a ring finger appeared on the central highway where a prisoner transport vehicle was attacked several months ago. Yesterday a pinky was found at the train station in Musutafu as well."
