A city with an old world European feel, it's more strange than threatening. Three cities are jumbled into one here-- a city for giants, a city for people, and a miniature city. The minature city exists in narrow alleyways and miniature furniture, where a human may be able to stick an arm in to reach inside, but not follow. The giant city towers above the other two, with steps like walls that might give you a good vantage point, but you'll have to hoist yourself up there to begin with...
Mechanics To climb up walls in areas that are meant for people larger than you, make a strength check, unless you have also been enlarged-- then there is no need to roll.
If you shrink, you may enter alleyways meant for people smaller than you. Roll agility-- if you roll successfully, you may escape into the small zone. If you roll poorly, you are still in reach to people outside.
he hasn't been to this area before, so after putting a good distance between himself and the night barrier he skids to a stop for a moment to reload, take in the surroundings, and check who's coming in behind him ]
Loki catches up with him pretty quickly, and he's grabbing Yasuragi by the arm as soon as he does. not really to stop him, but to pull further against one of the big giant walls while watching the horizon for snipers ]
That guy is probably still following us.
[ he'll grab and pull at hiryuu too to stand by the wall if he sees her come up ]
[ -jerks away at the touch, flinching away with a full body shudder that continues for even a few seconds into him composing himself and following along with Loki's urging. tucking himself up against the wall and turning his head downwards so his bangs conceal part of his face ]
[ he was too really high nerves to notice Yasuragi's own nerves, but now that they have a little time to breathe (only... a little time) he turns back to look at him. ... a sick kind of feeling twisting in his stomach. like frustration, and anger, but also every part of him that wanted to cry last round that he pushed down coming back to the surface along with an immeasurable amount of relief
... putting his hand against the wall beside Yasuragi he leans forwards to bring their faces close, to rest his forehead against the other man's. they can't stay here long, but ]
You should be. ........ but you're here now. And I'm not going to lose sight of you again.
[ The hit lands hard, bruising force of impact against Shu's chest. He's winded and he coughs— a rib might be broken. ]
So this is the kind of man you are? If you meant to attack him and he attacked in defense and still you chose to vent your anger despite the warning, I cannot count him in the wrong!
[ One hand stays locked at Thorn's wrist and the other slams into his face— He cannot manage much damage as he's attempting to hold him back at the same time, but it is a solid strike nonetheless.
[Doesn't even attempt to get away. He just absorbs the damage, opens his mouth and - screams.]
[Good god, it's a bad sound. An ear-splitting, brain-rattling kind of sound. A Kydoimos Din kind of sound. It goes on and on and on, and as it does, he switches on Achilles Radar, targets the weak point in the elbow of the arm that's holding him, and goes in for the break - 1+2, 3.]
[ he doesn't look at her, taking a moment to breathe in and calm himself a little more while scanning their surroundings more carefully. probably took Loki's bear trap ]

Loki?
[ she's a little stunned. and honestly she has questions for yasuragi so if he's already gone or going she won't make an attempt to stop him but
YOU'D BETTER NOT DIE or get close to it or she's jumping in too ]
Re: THE URBAN JUMBLE

Re: THE URBAN JUMBLE
You'd better not.
[ his eyes drop and after a beat he reaches out and hooks his fingers in the chain of the bear trap ]
Lend me this. I'll give you these.
[ pulls the gauntlets back out and tosses them up ]
Re: THE URBAN JUMBLE
but obviously he can't do that. his attention is snapped to the bear trap that he momentarily forgot he even had. ]
Huh? Uh, [ NOW HE HAS TO CATCH GAUNTLETS!? well he's a little pulled out of himself now, at least, cause he has to react fast to even catch them ]
Sure-- I don't really know how I'd use it anyways.

SUCCESS, HOLDING HIM BACK ]

Could you please explain to me why Thorn has been shot?
[ please... tell her this isn't you shooting first and asking questions later again. or panicking again. ]
