[Hey guys, s'up? This would be Ryotarou showing up on the Plane, staggering a bit in pain. He looks like he was in a fight, if the split lip and bruises on his face are anything to go by.]

And I didn't even... put up a fight that time... [Energy spent, Ryotarou decides that sitting down sounds like a really good idea right about now.]

[Hei looks like he has not slept in a year or so. He's also starting to look a bit frantic. Day 3 inside the Gate.]

Are you alright? ...You are hurt, right? [Has to make sure.]

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Y-yes. [glances up at Hei, looking concerned. D:] I am, but... I'm fine. Are you alright, Li-san?

[lamb_of_gold]

Tch. [Kneels to his level] Show me your wounds.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Ryotarou glances at Mu and winces a little when trying to shift to a better position, motioning toward his torso mostly. You can already see the wounds on his face, so he's not gonna bother with that.]

But... I'm alright. It wasn't as bad as usual or anything.

[Gah more injuries. Sometimes Firo is very glad to be immortal.] Hey, you okay?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[n-nods a little] I'm fine. Just... need to catch my breath a bit before I go home.

[contract_star]

[Stares at Ryotarou blankly for a minute or so.]

It howls, sometimes. Or sort of. It's like wind. Except there's never any wind.

...

I'm alright.

[Comes and sits down next to him.] Got in a fight. What over?

[lamb_of_gold]

[Sighs and gets to the healing] It would be better if you avoided injuring yourself at all.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[doesn't look like he believes you]

... Li-san. If you're in there all the time, have you been able to get anything to eat or drink..?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[tilts his head, a little embarrassed, but mostly just in pain] My wallet.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[little ironic smile] Believe me, Mu-san. I tried. [watching the healing with much interest]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Whoa! Nogami! You okay? [Ikki kneels beside him.] Who beat the snot out of ya?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[little shru— dflkndskh ow] Just a gang, I guess...

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[ O< ] Someone mugged you?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[nod] Yeah. But... it's okay. I'm surprised it took this long to happen since I got there.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[] No it's not! You gotta fight back or it'll happen all the time.

[lamb_of_gold]

[Keeps working as the flesh re-knits itself] I've a feeling that I would be better off not knowing.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[shakes his head] No, really, it's fine. It's not like I had much money to begin with.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[that feels... really weird, whoa] Mm... probably.

[contract_star]

[He laughs, and it sounds fractured and a bit mad.]

No, of course not. The water isn't safe. It rains sometimes, too. But it's like oil--it's blue-black. And it falls upward. It falls upward, did you know that?

[Long silence as he tries to stop rambling.]

...There's a kitchen here. I've been going there on and off.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

[Yet another person who's show up here injured. Have Shun coming over to help.] Are you okay? What happened?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[really worried for you, Hei D:]

... I've never seen something fall upwards before.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I-I'm fine. [shying away from him a little, if only 'cause he's never met Shun before and has no idea what he's like :x] ... Some people wanted my wallet.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[ You're talking to a boy who lived alone on on the street in New York City at age nine.] That's not the point!
