[Kaneda had been in Heropa for a day or so when he say Kazu talking to a certain missing psychic. Kazu was his only clue to where he could be, and Heropa was the last place he'd been. Well, he wasn't exactly wrong; Tetsuo was indeed on the move and causing trouble, Kaneda now in pursuit of him. How does he keep up? Well, he just looked for the trail of betrayal and bitterness (and destruction) and followed that. His bike was fast, sure, but Tetsuo had a good head start, not to mention Kaneda was actually trying to avoid traffic an pedestrians. SHOUT OUT TO STILL NOT HAVING HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE.

Wait.

Traffic.

That's it. While in pursuit, and police sirens heavy in his ears, he pulls out his comm. Hello everyone! Don't use the phone and drive.]

KANEDA HERE!

[Why is he yelling? Well, the sirens in the background, as well as the wind whipping past him makes it hard for decent conversation. What can he say? He's doing this for all of you! He seems to be resting his wrist on his handlebar while holding the phone up with his fingers, eyes kept on the road as he surveys the situation.]

Figured now would be a great time to do a traffic report since some people [see: Quill] think I'm not dedicated enough to my job. Wanna see your traffic?

[His hand flicks the communicator up against the glass windshield of his bike, swirling around to show Tetsuo and a girl he can't seem to recognize off in the distance causing havoc, police just ahead of him in the chase. He knew those guys didn't stand a chance. Call it first hand experience from the Swear-In.]

THERE'S YOUR TRAFFIC, HEROPA. OUT OF THE WAY!

[He weaves past a few of the cop cars, only one following over the overpass that lies ahead. If he can just get past it, it'd be easy to take him down. Tetsuo wasn't much further, close enough to see him do what would normally be too dangerous of a jump for his skill--Oh wait. That's a flying police car in his direction. There's no time to react, except swerve his bike in the least damaging way to impact this.]

SHIT!

[And the feed cuts to static, a scream and a loud, sickening 'clank'. It fritzes for a moment or two, and when it opens back up, despite the video having a few glitches, shows a nice overhead view of the street below the overpass. gravel and dust brushes past the screen as something starts to move it. Seems like Kaneda's still got a hold of it, fingers gripping it for dear life as his initial signs of life move it towards his face. You look like a car ran over you, kid.]

Jesus Christ...Ow.

[The impact had certainly done some damage to him, his yellow shirt with a nice tear at the shoulder to the armpit, and his head hurts like a motherfucker. Some bruising, too, naturally, because he certainly couldn't get enough of that! But for the most part, he's pretty okay, which is more than a lot of people can say from being hit with a police car. Most of them are...you know. Dead. His one free hand reaches up to his hair, trying to get the constant wooziness out of his head before he turns, eyes cast down to--

!!

HE CERTAINLY IS HANGING OVER THAT OVERPASS--there's a slight moment of panic, hands scrambling to cling to whatever stone lie still intact beneat him, before trailing his own body to see just what's keeping him from becoming a pancake on the freeway. Upon inspection, it looks like some twisted metal from the railing caught around his ankle, locking him firmly in place, albeit upside down. Bending up, the puts his hands on his boot ankle to inspect it. Bad, BAD idea. Needles shoot up his side, lacing his entire chest with pain as he attempts to Maybe that car did a little more damage than he realized...and his bike? Well, that's nowhere to be seen.

Slumping in defeat, he holds the camera up and throws his free arm across his eyes. Heads.]

Say, anyone want to help a guy out?

yeah it takes away the magic if you have to use powers to get it making a jump like that on skill alone is where its impressive but he still wins the collateral damage award

You must be pretty new to this world, huh.

what cause of the property damage trust me he wins that award

There's been waaaaaay worse, dude. This is just an outtake from a B action movie.

yeah it is but he still holds the title personal experience from being at the brunt end of it

Sounds like you might need to rethink your friend circle.

they cant all be angels not that he really calls me friend anymore

Oh, you better watch out. Those are the people you're never going to shake.

[she ought to know, being the person who'd 99% of the time rather chew her own arm off than admit to feeling any positive emotions towards most people]

a part of me hopes for that hes one hell of a mess on his own the dumbass

Edited 2015-09-07 00:54 (UTC)

I can't tell if that's masochism or really strong janitorial urges speaking there, dude.

i prefer responsibility

[Even if the former is really accurate.]

That's not one of the options, sorry.

[says who? says Hazel, apparently. what an expert.]

what didnt realize you made the rules doesnt work that way sorry you cant just cross one out

I don't know how you missed my duel to the death with the previous Empress of Defining Interpersonal Traits, but that's just how things are now. You pick from what you're given and you feel grateful you even got a choice.

im calling bullshit even tetsuo lies better than this

I'm also Goddess of Lies, so you're wrong again. Batting a thousand here, man.

if youre the goddess of lies how do i know youre not lying about being the goddess of lies it makes you both right and wrong at the same time doesnt it

That's the paradox of godhood. A mere mortal like you could never understand.

guess not but arent gods responsible for us good job on fucking up us mortals

It's your fault for not making better sacrifices at the temple. I'm not going to waste my energy on a bunch of ungrateful fucks.

naughty language for a god are they all as charming as you

No, they're all jealous that I got such a great domain and I'm a beautiful perfect being. It's why I have to get aggressive with the expletives.

what are you listening to yourself

We're texting, I can't listen to shit.

man youre a weird one who bonked you on the head when you were little
