[Throughout his life, Accelerator has only gotten a few reactions regarding his ability. The main one has always been fear; once people see that such a skinny twig isn't so much a fighter as he is a force of nature that can crush them like an ant it's as if their entire life flashes before their eyes, and they succumb to fear. It's a normal reaction, honestly, and something he's very used to by this point. Another one is anger, though that occurs in more specialized settings. Often it's some scientist with million dollar equipment they assume can handle his ability, and when he inevitably breaks it they get pissed off.

Aside from that there have only been a few other special reactions from specific individuals. A Magic God who thought he was amusing, or that Level 0 who, despite being completely outclassed, kept on getting up until he managed to win each and every fight they had. Fear and anger occurred often enough that they blur together, while these reactions have always remained clear in his mind.

But he's never gotten disappointment before. His brain stalls out a little as he stares, reminded of his own nonchalance when he's gone up against most opponents. It isn't that he has much in the way of pride, so there's only slight offense at his esper ability being called a magic trick. Mostly, he's bewildered, and he inclines his head as he tries to puzzle this out. Does this guy have a deathwish? He sounds bored, so that doesn't seem quite right. It can't be that he's just used to esper powers, because even by those standards his own is an outlier, and from his words it's unlikely that he's a magician.

So what is it? Accelerator's stare is enough to bore holes at this point, and he purses his lips.

Okay, well. He should at least do the responsible thing, get that out of the way.]


Did you start this whole mess? [He waves a hand at the fighting then steps closer. In spite of being shorter and smaller, his posture and tone are turning more authoritative.] Shut it down.
