the wounds are open and bleeding out
They don't get it.
It isn't about them; it isn't about Jigano's fisticuffs, or Amun and Sam getting their sharp little teeth into him, or Wessex's biopulse. This is between Ronin and the gods and his dead little girl, and he will be damned before he goes without his retribution. (Perhaps he already is).
His arm is useless and his chest burns; it hurts to breathe. It hurts, really, just to exist in this world without Aoife and Remi (for the arm with the hand with the heartbeat ring has been torn from its socket, and he can feel little from it), and then suddenly there's an Ascended pile-on and that boiling, prickling feeling within him simply... overflows.
Ronin might have been screaming - from the biopulse? from the bite? from the dogpile? - and there's a lot of light, a lot of heat, and he's not sure what he's done anymore.
Ronin drops his astral projection and does a Supernova on accident. >.>
