"Ugh... L-let me go this inst- a-ah!"

Rengoku flinches and shudders from pain, the collar around his throat shocking him and growing even tighter as he raises his voice. He had been trapped in this.. chamber for hours, getting relentlessly tortured. By both machines and by people. He is tied up to the wall tightly by his wrists, ankles, thighs, and his torso, and is forced to just take the pain. He whimpers softly as the collar loosens slightly, finally being about to breathe somewhat normally again... that is until he doesn't learn from his mistake and yells out louder this time,

"Let me go, you psycho! W-we can talk this out! Torture is not going to get you anywhere! What do you want from m- AGH! O-OW! STOP TIGHTENING IT! PLEASE!"

he lets out a pained cry, coughing relentlessly as the collar tightens even more. Blood drips down his forehead, mouth, and stains his uniform as he desperately tries to struggle against the binds, tears flowing uncharacteristically freely down his face. He is mad, terrified, and pained that he got himself into this situation, but he just wants to escape with his life! Is that so much to ask for?
