[Life has a way of being weird. Really weird and ironic. Death manages to top that. Because when Goroh suddenly finds himself breathing again, he opens his eyes to see the forest above. He was in the heat of battle. Hazama was attacking. That girl was nearby. He could have ignored it, but he didn't. He jumped in at the last moment, taking the blow. And then it went dark. And now he was here. In the woods. Feeling extremely uncomfortable. After a moment, he realized where he was. You've got to be fucking kidding me.

After spending about twenty minutes going over in his mind what happened and trying to figure out what he's lost as a result, he opens up his journal and decides to be conversational.]

Turns out dying is overrated as hell. It's got nothing on the Poripotian Space Flu. Not sure why people make a big damn deal out of it.

Damn. I could really use a smoke though.

[For awhile, Goroh will just be out in the forest answering his journal. He's sitting in front of a bath tub. In the middle of the forest. That he arrived in. Somehow the irony of it is amusing enough to make him not mind dying so much.]

(ooc: Also, this is forward dated to the middle of Monday in the afternoon.]

So, do you need help getting back, or anything?

Or would you just prefer to go for a drink after all of this shit?

I've got Litchi coming after me. Not much reason for anyone else to come, unless you fancy a tub.

A drink sounds fine to me.

...A tub? Like a bathtub?

[Another long laugh comes from Thirteen. Part way through, he manages to breathe out some words.]

Don't tell me they actually...

[And of course. He keeps laughing.]

Yeah. Just. Don't ask.

[Because it's funny and he wants to tell it as a story sometime. Nicely exaggerated of course.] So what did I miss?

[Once he stops laughing and catches his breath, he'll answer.]

...There was some sort of disturbance in the forest yesterday. Not sure exactly what it was. Looked like some kind of monster. But it was gone soon enough. Otherwise, it's been quiet. Thankfully. Maybe it'll stay that way.

I always miss the fun stuff, don't I? [He snorts.] How'd you find out I kicked the bucket anyway?

[His response is simple and honest.]

Litchi told me.

[Have a grumbling sound.]

She better not have gone and made a big deal about it.

Depends what you'd call a big deal. But, even if you think she did, she did it because she cares about you. You're her friend, I'd expect she'd do the same for any of them.

[He grunts, a little annoyed to hear that.]

Oi. S'just like my crew back home.

Is that so bad?

It ain't good to get too attached to people, Dave. It makes you weak.
