[ He'd be able to settle Joshua's vibe, if that were all it were. But it's his connection to Shibuya that's in danger, it's an effect this alien world is having on him, and he's not sure just how to help. He can't dare to hold Joshua so close to him for much longer. It's only panicking the guy, he needs a solution now, and--
And he realizes what Joshua is doing an instant before he does it, but by then it's too late. Point-blank means he can't run, can't attack, can't teleport.
He doesn't hear the bang, too caught up in the impact.
It's something massive and jarring, enough to make the world flicker, and an instant later comes the hot harsh searing ripping tearing shooting pain. He's gasping, panting, clutching at the hole in his stomach and scrambling back away from Joshua. Fuck. It hurts the way he can't remember anything ever hurting, not for years, not since he died and even that is so faded that he can't be sure it was worse than this. ]
