[So does anyone remember the 'poor guy' who got 'stabbed' and 'died' earlier this month? Probably not Of course you do.

Here he is, clearly not dead (to the surprise of no one), but there seems to be some...ketchup on his elbow? Except the tissue appears to be torn as well, and oh no...that's DEFINITELY not ketchup this time. Also he's grinning, but looks completely unhinged. Half of the said arm also seems to have what looks like porcupine quills on them, piercing his clothing.]

It seems our patron DISLIKED our little bit of THEATRE. They ATTEMPTED to send someone to stab me. During a siege, no less. Especially when I was TRYING TO HELP!

[Wow it sounds like Akechi for those who know him, but he's breathing sporadically as he's talking.]

Except, shall I explain how it was a monumental fucking waste of time to try?

[Wow big words Akechi, there might be kids watching! Well it's about to get worse.]

I might have a little bit of a nick, but that's NOTHING compared to what my GOOD FRIEND now has?

[ [And he pans the camera to showcase the poor sap who was asked to stab him. There is an entire knife that pierces his hand, a few quills stick on his arm and he is clearly in pain.] ]

Ahh yes, is this where I go hashtag Stabbing? Loser? Knife? I do hope whoever created this request is watching because I believe that if you have ANY sort of sportsmanship, this does mean that we are owed the money. Unless you want me to get his other hand?

[There's a yelp from the man.]

Shut up! It's not even your dominant hand. You should be happy. In fact I'm surprised you haven't left yet before I change my mind.

[He doesn't need to be told twice.]

Does ANYONE ELSE want to take a turn at TRYING to STAB ME? [He looks at the camera like he wants to attack it too.] Cause I feel like I COULD TAKE ALL OF YOU ON at this point!

[And he starts laughing. And doesn't stop. It seems someone's been affected by the fighting and maybe a little healing would be useful to bring him back to 'normal'. Or, you could try to talk him down?]

I'm going to go ahead and ask the obvious question here, but does anyone have any idea who opened up the veil between the living and the dead? Because they have a lot to answer for.

Of course, if this is you and you're listening to this, now would be a great time to come out and gloat about your evil plan. Come on, really lord it over us. You know you want to!

[It's a vague attempt at levity -- he doesn't actually think this will provoke anyone -- but it's not really convincing. If anything, he sounds more frustrated.]

The other explanation is that some inexperienced magic users tried to do a ritual that went horribly awry, I suppose, but you'd have to be desperate to do something so risky. Still, if that's the case, you should come clean about it anyway. If... you're even still alive.

[He's about to reach to end the feed, but a thought occurs to him, and he looks towards the sky.] Ah, right. One thing I do know is that what you can see in the sky? That's definitely the calamity. I went to the end of the world, so I can say for sure that it's the same thing. We can't afford for time to be unfrozen again.

Aurora and Zuko are no longer here in Avalon.

[Gokudera will not be attending his classes, showing up to work, or training at the dojo for several days. He just lost his boyfriend and girlfriend and he’s tired from fighting wraiths. Mostly, he’s just being an angsty teenager.

Feel free to blow up his IC inbox. Messages on this post will likely get delayed responses.]
