[ Whether they like it or not Gogol gets a second to breathe; he spends it trying to stem the bleeding from his hand. But of course, there's more to this off kilter circus act. At least for a second it really seems like he's about to encounter a voice of reason. He makes eye contact with Shinjiro and opens his mouth to respond—
Only for his eyes to be immediately drawn to the freaky little shit who shoots himself in the head without hesitation and doesn't die. It truly does seem like an improper circus proper when his gawking is interrupted by the fire that licks at his ankles. For the record: it is a shriek, genuine or not, that Gogol lets out as his hands reach out by instinct to intercede the sack of human that's being tossed (again). ]
Ohshit! Did you really just throw this guy?
[ It's not really dignified: the way Gogol has to shake out his leg to try to put out the fire, while shifting Rolo to hold him like a sack of potatoes with one arm. He looks down at him so incredulously. ]
Hey pipsqueak, look sharp. This would be so much easier if I just killed you.
[ Akechi is wise to sound the alarm on his ability—he'll give him that. Speaking of the Overcoat it looks like he doesn't even need his hands to activate it. He so graciously gives the other three a demonstration. A rowboat careens through the air from the right of them. One second passes as the portal relocates below. Sharp ornate fencing rockets up from below their feet. Another second must pass— A boulder smashes into the ground behind, sending the majority of the mass and all the little pieces of rocky shrapnel skidding forward. ]
This isn't even my final form (spoilers: sadly it is)
