[Up to the elbow now, branching out, the skin splitting...]

[bluefalconed]

[ IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE ]

[sharpasafawkes]

"Brother?"

[The voice comes quietly, wet-sounding and pained.]

[bluefalconed]

[ freezes ]

[sharpasafawkes]

"you left, and never came back."

[bluefalconed]

There... there was not more I could do.

[sharpasafawkes]

[the voice goes silent, but the feeling of him's still there. There's a lot he could say, why didn't you come back after? But he doesn't]

"I know."

[bluefalconed]

I can never apologize enough...

[sharpasafawkes]

"It is fine, other matters became more important"

[Up to the shoulder now, and it really does look like that part of the arm is tearing open.]

[bluefalconed]

[ THAT ARM IS NOT FUCKING THERE ]

[ hissing in pain ] Yes.

[sharpasafawkes]

[Are you sure? Are you sure? It feels... and looks like it is]

"I know that you would have, if you could"

[bluefalconed]

[ NO IT'S NOT I AM A HANDICAPABLE PERSON ]

I would have gladly changed positions with you.

[sharpasafawkes]

"This is better, you are stronger. It is better that you and Altair survived"

[There's obvious pain in his voice, and a pool of growing red on the floor. The skin seems to split open on that arm, now spreading across the chest, raw and hot and bleeding.]

[bluefalconed]

[ oh hai, I get to use these icons ]

But there was so much left for you to experience.

[sharpasafawkes]

"That does not matter brother, what concerns us is how to keep peace in our world."

[bluefalconed]

Yes, but I still can not help but wonder sometimes.

[sharpasafawkes]

"Do not, all it will do is cut through your resolve."

[bluefalconed]

I... will try to.

[sharpasafawkes]

[by now it goes quiet, all save the faint sounds of gasping, choking on one's own blood, fading away the further one walks down the pipes.]

[bluefalconed]

[ yep. walking ]

[sharpasafawkes]

[Abruptly some time after it fades away, there's a terrible scream, all Kadar and agonized, before being cut off. That, by the way, might sound familiar]

[bluefalconed]

[ FUCK YOU AND YOUR MIND SHAUN HASTINGS going to that scream as best he can even though body is being a bitch ]

[sharpasafawkes]

[But it seems to be so far away, and the ground is now wet and slippery with the backwash from the pit...]

[bluefalconed]

[ you know how hard it is to concentrate on ignoring pain, walk towards a scream, AND keep your balance on a slippery surface? HARD

down he goes ]

[sharpasafawkes]

[Kadar's voice barely comes through, it's okay, go on forward, it's dangerous. Malik's losing focus again...]
