[She fumbles with the Hitomi, trying to remember what button would take her voice to him, but her hands still and the words die in her throat as she realizes she can do nothing. Even if she knew where he was, she couldn't get there in time. She couldn't stop those men.
All she can do, maybe, is help make things right afterwards.
It's no different from whenever Ginko travels. He puts himself at risk all the time. She knows that.

[There's an intake of breath as Gai goes to speak, to call out and find out if the person is all right, but he realizes he never got the guy's name. Iruka may have said it, Gai would have to look back, but there isn't time. All he knows is that it's the guy that warned about the floating things.
There's nothing that he can say, but he's going outside, looking, trying to see if he can stumble upon this scene. The surge of violence is something that worries him. And if he can't find this scene, maybe he can be of help elsewhere.]

[Oh crap.
Oh crap.
Twice in one week? Something's happening, and Road's not sure she likes it. It's only a matter of time now before the tension builds to its peak and breaks in a HUGE way. And she just knows it's going break in their faces - probably in the form of lots of lynching and mobbing.
This is what pushes her decision that this needs to be nipped in the bud. A renewed sense of determination fills her; this is what she was brought to this world to do. Her responsibilities as a Noah aren't finished, and she has to continue the Earl's work to the best of her ability while lacking the akuma and the Ark.
She flips on the video and makes it public.]
If anyone knows where that man can be found, let me know. This needs to end now - before it's too late.

[He isn't the type to sit around when things like this happen. Raynor even if he might not make it in time is already on the hunt for him. Shit. It was like a bomb going off, he could hear the steady ticking that would all but scream war.]

[First Lelouch, and now this. Iroh didn't know Ginko that well, but he saw enough to realize the man was basically decent, and in trouble. Given Lelouch's notes on the natives and their abilities to bock powers, a text post may be best.]
Ginko, this is Iroh. Send word when you get this message: are you okay?
[Ginko finally sees this some time later. He switches to voice--it's less effort for him right now, and he's not in a position where he needs to be that careful.]
I'm... safe.
[Not 'alright' because he isn't, really. Some of that is plain in his voice. It's tired, with an edge of tension that might tell Iroh he's still in pain. Broken ribs don't make speaking much fun.]
Someone was able to help me, and I'm being temporarily sheltered in his room.
[He has no idea what he'll do once Gai and Lee's hospitality runs out, but he can't think much past tonight right now. He'll deal with it when it happens.
He hesitates for a moment... this fellow had written his name earlier, hadn't he? He... isn't sure if he's ever met him before. The name is unfamiliar... well, if he's wrong, he can always blame the pain for making it slip his mind.]

But this time she can hear it, and it hurts.]

[But still worrying. There would be no peace for any of them as long as this was going on.]

Ah... I'm sorry, have we met?
