Judas

(Explanation!)

(Beginning- War flashback)

- Dabi: "You'll be scorched by the earth and be drowning in flames,"

- Says Uncle Isaac on a mighty cloud

- Tomura: "Nothing but you left to blame..."

These lines being used as contrast to the following scenes, and also a reminder of how far they were willing to follow their ideals, with the isolating influence of AfO.

(Post Canon - for the rest of the animatic)

- Tomura: Do you like my new home?

- Dabi: I don't

Tomura's home being literal, but referencing his new living situation, his new life and position in the world. Of course, Dabi doesn't wish anything but destruction for him /pos

- Dabi: Do you want to wear my clothes?

- Tomura: I don't

To wear his clothes meaning to dress like him, to look like him, to live but mainly, to die like him. Tomura, to put it simply, isn't sold on that.

- Tomura: Don't you want to grow old, hey?

- Dabi: I don't

Over the course of their interactions, Tomura picks up the meanings behind Dabi's new way of speaking, being laced with fatalism, but doesn't have the self-consciousness to keep from asking about it. Dabi, having just shed his 8 year lie, answers honestly.

- Dabi: Do you want to smell my rose?

- Tomura: I don't, I don't

The meaning of the white rose ranges from devotion to silence, and in western culture, has an association with both weddings and funerals. Both, in this case, being a promise between two people. With Dabi, it's impossible to tell which he's asking for.

- Do you want to be alone?

As their lives become tumultuous in brand new ways, not only clouded with a different social battle but also by sympathetic associates and relations, they lose their hold on each other and their time alone.

- Dabi: Do you have strings to your bow?

- Tomura: I don't

Here, Dabi asks if Tomura has attachments to his old name (part of which meaning "bow") after all of this as, at this point, their past circumstances have been dug up for scrutiny. Tomura holds the notion of detachment with his childhood.

- Tomura: Do you want to be bold, baby?

- Dabi: I don't

In this same moment, Tomura asks if Dabi wants to live in whatever way he wants, perhaps with a freedom from his own past. Dabi denies this as if it were a joke, seeing that he was refused the only thing he was after.

- Dabi: Do you reap what you sow?

- Tomura: I don't, I don't

Scrutinizing each other then, Dabi's difficulty accepting Tomura's state shows in the form of a familiar bitterness, questioning if Tomura was going to follow down the path he built himself. Tomura's answer is conflicted, unsatisfied with the distance of his dream, yet holding some sort of hope for the person who promised him a better way.
