[In a decidedly unorthodox appearance onto the Plane, Zeronos appears nearly forty feet up in the air, falling at an angle. The Rider suit breaks apart and disappears almost immediately, leaving an already bruised Ryotarou unprotected as he plummets to the ground.

When he hits, it's with a loud cry of pain, and he's unable to stop himself from rolling for a few feet before stopping on his stomach. He lays there only a second before he tries to pull himself up, but it's too much and he loses consciousness before getting very far.]

Nice of you to drop in.

[And then he's kneeling down beside you and...checking you over. Making sure nothing is incredibly fatal...or broken.]

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[When Jackie gets to his left arm, the reaction is immediate. Ryotarou cries out and reaches over unconsciously to protect the limb that's most likely broken from the fall.]

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Left arm broken then. [And he continues to check over the rest] This is going to be one hell of a story, isn't it?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Ryotarou tries to squirm away from Jackie. Still holding onto the broken arm, he rolls onto his good side and tries to sit himself up... but only manages to get halfway before he falls back again with a pained noise. He takes a second to catch his breath.]

What...?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Stop moving so damn much, or you're going to hurt yourself. [Pause] More.

[And he finishes, before crossing his arms] The fall did the arm in, what did the rest?

[contract_star]

...The hell?

[Runs over and crouches beside Ryotarou, checking for major injuries. Once he's satisfied that there's nothing fatal he disappears from the Plane. Then he comes back with a pillow and a first aid kit. He slips the pillow very carefully under Ryotarou's head (head injuries FTL) and goes to work on the worst of the injuries.]

[Ryotarou just glances at Jackie for a moment before closing his eyes.] ... Gaoh.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Major injury: check. Ryotarou flinches badly and his good arm immediately goes to hover over the broken left, but he doesn't wake up until Hei places the pillow there. Oddly, the belt (http://i28.tinypic.com/2946u6f.jpg) around his waist and the card (http://i28.tinypic.com/wsjiwo.jpg) inserted in the buckle are still there, although they shouldn't have right to be.]

Nnghh... What..?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

What are "things that make no sense"? [Yes, he did just spoof Jeopardy. And then he taps your funky looking belt] This is?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

It's— [Then Jackie taps the belt and he lets go of his injured arm so he can angle the buckle of the belt better, confused and somewhat shocked.] Zeronos... But the card...!

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Remembers the talk about the cards, and then stares at it for a moment.] I'm guessing something's not right with this picture. Something with the card, right?

[Takes a moment, then shakes his head] Hold it. I'll be right back.

[And he disappears and returns with a first aid kit and a bottle of painkillers] Alright. You talk, I'll do the bandaging.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

It shouldn't be... [Glances to Jackie, then lets his head fall back lightly and moves his hand to his arm again. While he's gone, the gears in Ryotarou's head are turning. The belt is on, the card is inserted, he was transformed... But why isn't he anymore?]

... Talk about what?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Doesn't matter. Just if you're talking, then you're not unconscious. Simple concept. [And he goes to work on the broken arm, very carefully]

Shouldn't be what?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Well, OW. Ryotarou flinches and holds his breath for a moment then exhales and closes his eyes.]

A lot of things. Shouldn't be there, or... I shouldn't be untransformed... [He shakes his head just a little.]

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Stops for a moment, sighs, then continues] Okay. So you've got a few, non-health related problems to boot as well.

Think it could have been damaged by the fall?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Cracks open an eye to glance at Jackie.] No. It couldn't have.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Sees your eye open, and nods at you] Could the Plane have fucked it up any?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

No... It's worked both on the Plane and— [.. Wait. Ryotarou blinks once, then closes his eyes.] Oh. I think I get it.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Great. Spill.

[contract_star]

Don't move around. [Looks at the arm.] Broken. I can set it, but you're going to need a hospital--or one of the healers around here.

Talk to me. How does your head feel?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

The power... it doesn't transfer between here and my reality.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Winces and blinks his eyes open slowly.] Ah..? Hospital? But I can't... [a small pause] My head... it's alright. I don't think I landed on it.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

And we're back to the matter of this power...[Thinks for a moment]

So...if you use it there, then come here...nothing, right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

I guess so... [frowns a little to himself] I just hope it will start up again when I go back.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Let me guess. If it doesn't, time will implode? Or some horribly, temporally devastating consequence?
