[ Atop the sounds of those struggling in the sand, the crackle of fire and crinkle of metal contorting in ways that it shouldn't, there comes a deafening engine rev as a motorcycle launches out of nearby time and space fluctuation. The tires screech against a suddenly much softer surface that the rider is too disoriented to adjust to. It's not a steed proper but Tatsuki is still bucked off its back harshly all the same; he flies through the air, a gangly mess of long limbs and confusion.

He rolls once he collides with the ground, some good few turns away from his now crashed Honda CBR. He gives a groan but doesn't move just yet. Give him time to come to his senses. This poor boy's just been through one helluva ride.

He's aware enough, however, that should anyone try to touch him their hand will be immediately slapped away. Even if they're only trying to help, they'll be met with a surprisingly icy glare for such otherwise foggy eyes. ]

[ Standing out in the rain with only a windbreaker on for protection is Tatsuki. He's still adjusting to this new dimension, to the knowledge of the fate of his world. His daemon has taken the form of a glove, just one, that he often wore to minimize contact with others. The matching one is in his pocket as he's pre-occupied with doodling an image on a foggy window.

He's understandably shaken. Upset. One wouldn't know it, looking at his perfectly stony face. But this isn't something that anyone adjusts to as easily as they might seem. It doesn't help that nostalgia isn't a feeling he enjoys. The swell of emotions at remembering things past - how things used to be, how he used to be - had never sat well. Even now, it's difficult to bite back and rein in just how bothersome the changes in himself are, especially when it came to his family.

He hopes that Kotarou is alright. Maybe it's the recollection of his cousin that causes his fingers to idly trace a string of flowers along the window's surface. It's a thoughtless motion that allows him something else to focus on besides what once was. ]

ooc; in lieu of a proper permissions post, it should be noted that tatsuki has a psychic ability triggered by touch! if he touches your character (skin to skin contact), he might be able to see a memory. the catch is it's usually a bad memory i.e. one with negative associations. icly, he will avoid this at all costs. oocly, i'm perfectly fine with this happening but hmu via pm or puddingandpie so we can hash out what tatsuki will see!
