When Bakugo offered Kirishima the blade and the other took it, he knew instantly that it was some sort of trigger. Trigger for what, he wasn't sure. But that power, that oddness...it was there tenfold with that sword in Eijiro's grip. The Knight seemed to be having some sort of conflict within himself, and it mesmerized Bakugo so much that he really only caught the ass-end of Kiri's question.
"Hm? Oh, fuck, I dunno. Supposed to have been made by some famous blacksmith though. Forged with dragon fire and all that bullshit, I never listen to anything the Queen says." He waved his hand dismissively, but was cut off by how distracting Kirishima was acting. The Knight was staring in such awe like he'd never seen a sword before. Sure, this one was a one of kind blade, but still...
And then the fucker keened. Bakugo froze and his blood pressure started to rise as he tried to figure out how exactly he was supposed to react to that sound. It had been so...so helpless. Like he was in physical pain. Katsuki looked from the sword, to Kirishima's face to the sword and back again. He was so close to figuring it out, but still the answer evaded him. Maybe the guy was some sort of kleptomaniac? No, that didn't seem right. But still...
He couldn't take the expression of longing in Eijiro's face anymore and he leaned back on his palms, frowning in a way that was more thoughtful than angry. "You can keep it, if you like." He never used the damn thing. And it was something that demanded use. If there were any suitable hands to wield it, why shouldn't they be the hands meant to protect him? He almost gagged at himself for being so disgustingly sentimental and generous about the whole thing, even if it was only logical. He just wanted the guy to stop making that face. (He wanted to stop thinking it was cute. Fucking horrifying, that feeling was.)
