[ the feed comes on just in time for the tail end of a crazy breathless laugh and the sounds of someone running away. for a moment there's no picture but that of the inside of a pocket, but there is a tilting of the camera, a dizzying spin and now you're graced with the appearance of Takegami. He's smiling, his lips blue and his hair straggling into his face, his breathing sharp, shallow and painful. A harsh cough brings up bright blood and he moans something in Japanese, quick and too fast for anyone to catch it all. ]

It seems... some people do not... have a sense... of humor.

[ Laughs slightly and then another cough, this time the netbook falls from his weakening grip to fall to the ground. It shows a bit of the alley and the Transport apartments just a few blocks away. ]



[ooc; The end of this log results in a couple shots to the lungs, which means he's got a couple minutes at the most. He might be able to respond before his lungs fill up completely before dead silence and then he'll be back in a couple days, so have fun! ]

[Raven is quietly sitting in her room, the one he lets her use at his place. And he's not here, she would be able to sense his presence if he was.]

...Teijirou?

Teijirou!

[She peers at the screen, trying to figure out where he is. Because she has to find him and try to heal him.]

[Video]

[onemoredeath]

...Hai?

[ That is followed by a wet cough, and the appearance of him as he loses the strength to remain upright. ]

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[feel_nevermore]

Don't move. I'm on my way.

[And indeed a door can be heard as it's slammed shut behind her.]

What happened?

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[onemoredeath]

[ He's speaking in Japanese with little, short breaths as if he can't get air in his lungs. He can't of course. ]

A little... joke. Some... one is... pissy.

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[feel_nevermore]

[A good thing he's been teaching her Japanese for about seven months now. And that he's not speaking too fast because of his injury.]

You knew them?

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[onemoredeath]

May... be...

[ He's getting tot he point where his toes and fingers are numb and his cold and sweating. ]

Cold

[Video//Private//Unhackable] -> (Short) action?

[feel_nevermore]

[She lets out an impatient sigh, betraying how nervous she is.] Quit joking, Teijirou. What's their name?

[She's already landing into that alley in which Teijirou is slowly dying lying onto the ground. She runs to him and kneels next to him.

Her eyes widen in shock as she discovers the wound.]

You got shot.

(Very Short) action

[onemoredeath]

[ A hacking laugh because air, who needs it? ]

name..?

(Very Short) action ;;

[feel_nevermore]

The name of the person who shot you.

[She presses her hands against the wound without caring about the fact that they're soon drenched in his blood. She focuses on taking the pain away. But she can already sense his aura fading. And her worry starts to show on her face.]

I can't carry you. I have to try and heal you here. Close your eyes.

[But even if she tries to ignore it, the rational side of her tells her it's already too late for her to do anything.]

(Very Short) action ;;;

[onemoredeath]

I... don't...

[ There's another hard cough and this time it's bright red blood that comes out of his mouth followed by a sharp gasp for one last breath. ]

(Very Short) action ;;;

[feel_nevermore]

That's okay. I'll find out.

[She just lays his head gently on her lap, making sure he doesn't feel any pain anymore.]

[breakablegirl]

Oh my god-

Where are you?

[onemoredeath]

[ Sorry, he's sort of going to babble in Japanese here. ]

some where... not home...

[breakablegirl]

I- I can't understand you. [Why didn't she pay more attention to Hiro when he was speaking Japanese.] You're speaking in Japanese.

[onemoredeath]

cold

[ One last word in English and then you get to look at the skyline and stuff. ]

[neveraskedforthis]

[ WHOA holy shit what.

Adam's pretty sure there is no point in responding to this, but man he is gonna call some people and complain a lot. ]

On finding this post, later...

[has_a_cult]

[Oh god why are you still alive please die sooner I don't want to listen to this this is terrible you had it coming you sick fuck what have I done shit shit shit shit]

[bratworth]

[ What. The. Hell. It's that punctuated thought that first crosses Edgeworth's mind when he watches this broadcast on his tablet. He does his best to regain his composure, but his voice is tempered with urgency. ]

Your location, Takegami? Takegami, can you hear me?

voice;

[onemoredeath]

[ Sorry, today you're gonna get some fail Japanese. ]

Doko ka..?

[bratworth]

[ He smacks his tablet - why is the damn thing malfunctioning now. ]

Try -- try speaking again.

[onemoredeath]

Don't...

[ really breathless sounding now. ]

video;

[bratworth]

Don't -- don't what?

[onemoredeath]

...know.

[ harsh coughing ]

video;

[bratworth]

[ This... this is bad. ]

Just stay there, we'll get someone to find you.

[ Even though he has no authority to be saying such things, not like he might have had in his own reality... what else can he say to this man, clearly in his dying moments? ]

video;

[onemoredeath]

[ that's funny. he'll laugh as long as his lungs will let him. ]

video;

[bratworth]

[ He takes one last look, trying to commit the sight to memory before disconnecting the feed. To do what, precisely, he isn't sure. ]

[sacrificar]

While you have nothing left at all.

[onemoredeath]

[ laughter - breathless and filled with fluid - nope he doesn't care really ]

[allsongs]

Takegami Teijirou.

[that is a statement and an inquiry. why the hell are you dying on camera, sir. i didn't authorize this.]

video

[onemoredeath]

[ sorry it was not like he planned it, he just hit the wrong button ]

...Hai?

[allsongs]

[she surveys, frowning.

softly:] Speak to me. [it'll keep you alive long enough for help, perhaps?]

[onemoredeath]

[ He just breathes, coughing at the fluid building up in his lungs. ]

Too... hard...

[allsongs]

Will you listen?

[onemoredeath]

[ breathless, almost a whisper. ]

hai...

[allsongs]

[good.

what she sings is quiet and somber, but peppered sweetly with a kindness unclouded by any judgments. it's not her place to condemn or condone, but she's not partial to letting familiar faces suffer alone.

a song for the hurt, for solace and returns to better places and things. ]

[onemoredeath]

[ music was one of the few things that his mind did not see in one strict way. he listened and maybe his eyes were wet with the beauty of the kindness floating in her song. ]
