[that's fun! the second she realizes that he's attacking her, her instinct is to grab and grapple him. this essentially means that her sword clatters to the ground and she just wraps her arms around him, his arms and everything.]
[The tentacle had enough of his shit; it leans over again to wrap around his neck to try yanking him away. He really lets out a comical YRK! from the pressure tightening around his windpipe.]
[this would be so much funnier to her if her legs hadn't like, stopped working. he gets yanked away, and she hollers something wordless before another tentacle reaches over to grab her as well.
her response is to punch the tentacle grabbing at akira as her as she can, as her own tries to hoist her upwards.]
The tentacle writhes from the punch, but maybe it assumes Akira is retaliating. It hefts him up and away into the air, and then slams him down onto the ground. At least it releases him afterward?
But weirder still is, despite being a wobbly normie, he gets immediately back up and launches himself at Gideon's tentacle. HE BITES IT. He really tries to get it with his teeth.]
she just lets out a stream of curses, and struggles to get out from under the tentacle that's got her, but it looks like her everything sucks! her arms are noodles.
the tentacle whips at akira. probably hits his ass because that's funny.]
[what r u saying why would i ever take that away ALSO SHUT UP YOU ARE TAKING HER BONES???
The smack to his ass makes him stand stark straight, and then he lets out the human equivalent if an animalistic snarl. He grabs the tentacle with both arms to twist it off Gideon.]
well, see, he yells that, and it makes her freeze. why are you useless? she's still just long enough for the tentacle to whack at her and send her glasses flying, and - well, that makes her angry. she lets out a strangled sound, and swallows down the horrible feeling in the pit of her stomach to wrestle the fucking tentacle off and away from them both.
[STOP, NOT HER TRAUMA. I hate this week personally. "You picked this." I hate this week.
Gideon scrambles away, but Akira has some insanely infamous self-confidence, so he quickly tries to jump back into beating the shit out of this tentacle. He's still a normie, though, so it wallops him away and he lands painfully over beside Gideon.]
I can. [not by the way he groans lying there] Winning against them means survival, and I can use parts of their body to be stronger when I get to Satan.
My body! This body is a weak husk of flesh! I want my real body returned to me! [He is having a Malik gesticulation on the floor here.] The body of a great warrior...
w2, monday
Well.
Akira is fighting one of them when Gideon comes in. Like full jumped on top of fighting.]
no subject
i say this like gideon isn't IMMEDIATELY going to jump in and help. she draws her sword and sprints in to try and chop at the tentacle, yelling.]
no subject
Once Gideon runs in to help him like a bro, he immediately leaps off the tentacle and directly on top of her for attack.]
no subject
no subject
But yeah, he is tackling her from above.]
no subject
Hey! What the fuck!
no subject
He thinks he is going to land on her and bully her, but instead he gets trapped. He growls and starts wriggling much like the tentacle nearby.]
Let go! The tentacle is mine!
no subject
[she's going to scoot away from the tentacle, a bit - and then immediately trip and fall. this is a disaster.]
no subject
sugar he's going down--right on top of her.]
I don't need any--!

Ow. Hey. [she is trying to not think about what he just said, it's fine.] I don't think you can actually kill these things.
no subject
I can. [not by the way he groans lying there] Winning against them means survival, and I can use parts of their body to be stronger when I get to Satan.
To get back what was stolen from me!
no subject
That - isn't how it works? What? Get what back? [HELLO?]
no subject
My body! This body is a weak husk of flesh! I want my real body returned to me! [He is having a Malik gesticulation on the floor here.] The body of a great warrior...
I'll destroy Satan for what he took.
no subject
Did... did you ever have one of those? [don't be mean.] Are you sure?
no subject
Yes! [He has little higher intelligent emotions, but he is current offended.] Satan is afraid to battle me like real demons do.
He knows I will win.
no subject
[sniff.]
This week sucks.
no subject
He stole your body too. What happened to it?
no subject
The bones stopped working. I'm starting to think someone is playing a joke on me because I skipped leg day once.
