Nya knows this one isn't one t hey can talk their way out of, so... he gets off of Loki's back, squaring himself up so he can look at their opponents.]
[ God verticality is Great. She zooms in from the side and dropkicks Loki offscreen (by which I mean a distance that it's just separate enough from the others), landing and stalking towards him with squared, tense shoulders and her axe in hand. ]
i'm going to say he gets kicked down some alleyway so he can't just circle his way around her, because he's scrambling to his feet as soon as he can. looking half bewildered, half frustrated as hell-- ]
Shit-- [ looking around, he. tries to find some way to get back to the others but, there's... the walls, but she'll likely attack him if he tries that now. ]
[ .... honestly he literally doesn't remember, but it sounds like something he would do. so he's not arguing.
instead he moves, out of the way of the axe-- and on its way down, he grabs the hilt of it. and kicks at her side to send her flying, using the force to wrench her axe right out of her hands. ]
You'll have to remind me how that went. Req☆iem of the Dead, Song of.... Sorrows? [ he hefts the axe in his hand. actually looking at her, instead of right through her like usual. ]
[ Oof. She rolls with the kick, and springs back up-- only a tiny amount of struggle from her injured leg-- and immediately uses Verticality to scale up the alley wall, doing a SICK FLIP!!! and dropping down to try to kick Loki in the goddamn head.
[ he backs up out of the way of that kick (spd check 1+4=success, +4 effectiveness) as he. quite honestly does not want to get kicked in the head anymore for a while.
... hah. ]
Not at all. [ time to swing my new axe that i'm probably going to lose to a genie real soon here (str check 3+3=success, +4 damage ]
[ She hits the ground hard and ducks under that axe-- success at 7, with MAJOR STYLE from that 6, and lurches forward to try to grab him by the leg and flip him. pass at 7 for 5dmg ]
[His Heart Weapons are two katars - long and slender, a sleek, sci-fi aesthetic black. He charges right the hell in - makes that precision roll handily - and comes up slashing: 3+3, 5 (+5 damage). The Heart Weapon is sharper than it's ever been for anyone, and he is way past pulling punches.]
[Well, he HAD invited him. Thank goodness for the boost to his health from his extra arms, but as he tries to get out of the way he just isn't ready for it, and the katars gouge him viciously, tearing at Nya's body and managing to rip two of the doll arms off of his sides, as well as tearing through his torso.
He's falls back against the nearest large structure, coughing up blood and shuddering... and then healing himself. He is still down two arms, the wreckage of which remain on the ground, unusable.
His fingers tighten around the grip of his knife as he grits his teeth and stands back up, brushing himself off and attempting to slash at Hurricane with his knife. With 4 4 6, he fails absolutely miserably.]
[Cool well these two are the closest fighting pair to Phoenix and he has to start yelling and interfering somewhere.
He hates this, so much. He hates people he likes looking at each other with naked murder on the mind and he is basically lunging to put himself between Nya and Hurricane, trying to shove them apart.]
Stop it! You guys don't have to do this! Hurricane! Nya! GET A GRIP!
[ strategics roll (2+2, effectiveness of 2 but frankly this probably doesn't do any damage) to loop his belt around her axe arm and pull her charge off course, pivoting as he reels her in so their backs collide. the sound of the safety on the gun she dropped along the way clicks off. ]
--Maybe your boytoy should try keeping his hands to himself.
[And slams her head backwards into his to try and shake him free, and--
(2/4/5 passes for strength while 1/4/4 (barely) passes strategics but skulls are hard)]
Ow...
[The initial aim was to gracefully untwirl from the belt, but instead it's more of a stagger through her daze to attempt to face him and get her axe free]
[ -1hp, skulls are very hard. tries to lash at her face with the belt as he unwinds it off her arm again but flunks that precision roll fabulously in the midst of his head ringing, so instead it just kind of flaps off as he also stumbles away to try and get some distance again ]
She shakes it off(?), or just sucks it up enough to charge at him again, slashing with the axe down his front from shoulder to hip... 1/4/6 makes the strength check for 9 damage...he might want to dodge]
[ grits his teeth and does not dodge. instead he uses In Solidarity to copy the same hit back onto her, so now we're just fountaining blood at each other as he lifts the rifle and shoots point-blank at her face for 7 damage ]
[So first of all, that's a fucking mess. She goes down like a stone, head smacking wetly against the pavement, a certainly unfortunate amount of blood streaming from both gut and head wounds. And that's...it...?
But.
Slowly, painfully, she struggles to sitting--reaches blindly for her glasses and makes a low, wavery wail. That's--bad, this is bad, and she coughs up blood (where is it coming from???) before lurching forward, almost getting her feet under her (thanks Stability!)
She's not up yet, but moving a hell of a lot more than you'd expect from someone who just got shot in the face, so that's something]
[Holy shit I'm busy trying to keep Nya and hurricane apart and THIS SHIT.]
YASURAGI! NEMESIS! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TWO DOING?!
I'm kind of busy so could you stop trying to murder each other for five seconds?! Before you actually succeed?! WHY THE HELL IS EVERYONE GOING OUT OF THEIR GODDAMN MINDS?
[ the best way to get over the nightmares you have about that time you shot someone in the head is to shoot ANOTHER person in the head and then watch them get back up while still bleeding from the head. this was a great plan
he keeps backing away, barely registering Phoenix's words. he keeps the gun pointed at Nemesis but he doesn't even have the wherewithal to reload it yet. ]

Nya vs. Hurricane
He spills the grease ahead of him, then holds the knife out to the side.]
You'll have to make me.

Stay out of it if you want to live.
