Not that others would normally pick it up. [color=aqua]"Is your mouth/jaw alright Ra... *cough*"[/color] Xerox violently coughed. No blood spluttered, yet. His violent coughing fit caused pain in his back. The bullet still lodged in his body. [color=aqua]"Damn it. Wonder if it's still bleeding. It would suck to bleed out."[/color]

Looking around, he noticed an unfamiliar face. Duncan seemed to have noticed her too. He decided to let Duncan ask about who she was. It seemed he was somehow acquainted with her.
