[A mess of wild, unkempt brown hair can be seen cascaded over a tanned, dirtied and bruised face. The direction of the feed is strange and awkwardly angled; the fragmented remains of green and white armor, and shredded black giving way to an equally bruised and burnt chest appear alarming. The barely distinguishable sand the body rests on and the

M- Mister, are you alright? [ OH MY GOSH HE WAS HURT, WASN'T HE? ]
Please don't try to move, I can bring you some apple gels right away! [ Oh man, where was Raine when you needed her? ]

Ah. No, no. I'm fine, really. [He laughs, but mutters a quick "ow" and stops.] Just taking a breather, is all.

[ SHE WILL COME FIND YOU, DON'T DOUBT HER. ]
D- don't try to push yourself...

[This is the opportune time to corner the old man, too.]
I'm totally fine. [And he starts swinging the swing.] See? No problems!

Mister Kotetsu! Are you okay?!
[He looks hurt really really real bad. What happened to him?! Did someone attack him? What should I do?]
D-Don't worry! I think I have a first aid thingy around here! I-I can come help you!

This must look so completely compromising right now.]
I don't think I need any first aid, Peter. [He says that a little hoarsely, and rubs a kink out of the back of his neck with a wince.] Just a bed and a shower, and I'll be good as new!

B-But you have that huge burn and I don't think a shower is going to fix that! You really need some help!

Trust me, I can handle this. [He jabs confidently at his chest, but winces once more as the thumb makes contact.] It would take a lot more than a burn to keep me down.

He'd taken note that one colleague, Origami Cyclone, had left, and he doesn't know how to feel about that. But the Judge and his partner are still present, and are fair game to see this.
Until right now, until he received the call, he hadn't thought about it. Now, though, he has no choice but to respond. He grins, notices the movement behind Yuri as he walks, and quietly huffs out a breath. He's at the park, there's no way to hide that now.]
S-sir, thank you for the concern, but...
[He scratches at his disheveled hair idly, and tries to will away the wince tugging at the corner of his eyes. He sounds almost apprehensive; he's too stubborn to admit that he needs help even for this, but there really is no getting around it this time.
He sighs, and his grin becomes a small pout.]I might need some help getting my ( ... )

I've had experience tending to injuries like the ones you appear to have.
[He has tended to his own injuries, after all.]
I should arrive within five to ten minutes if the subway is on time. Please remain on the swings until I get there.

I don't think I'll be going anywhere.
[He mutters a quiet thank you, before cutting the call short, and letting the Dreamberry fall from his hands to the sand below his feet. He doesn't want to worry anyone, doesn't want to be a bother. He won't be answering the phone for a little while after this.
With a sigh, he closes his eyes and slumps his body against the chain as he waits, the adrenaline leaving his body and giving way to a wary sort of exhaustion.]

[This guy sounds strangely familiar, in voice but not in mannerism. He can't help but ask, though.]
Bunny... [He pauses, sounds almost hesitant.] Is that you?
[And no, he totally didn't check the caller ID.]

[He's lying.
But moving on, that answers that question.]
You... kind of sound like someone I know? N-never mind, it's not important.

What has happened?
Reply
[He just stops himself with a sigh.]
Nothing's happened! Really, I'm fine.
[Should he say something along the lines of "Maverick is an asshole" now, later or never? Tough call.]
Reply
[Blink.]
Also, is that not the line you wished to use initially...? It is wonderful that you were able to use your catchphrase now!
Reply
[That... would've been a good alternative.]
My catchphrase? [He had been debating it, but...] My memory's a little fuzzy, mind telling me when I tried using it before?
