[ they haven't seen it yet. it could happen. anyway marcy cannot blame damien for fighting frogs because she's pew pewing at the shark while trying to press b to dodge out of the way at the same time ]
We can't combo it when it's swimming in pavement! We gotta get it out and maybe make sure Damien doesn't die to a frog because that'd be totally lame!
[the shark is the bigger problem, but yams has it! actually, since he was in a better position for it, the gust of wind flies, barreling straight into the shark as it starts to lift up from the ground. it fights back, attempting to wriggle below again.
granted, marceline's bullets are also starting to deal it some damage, but not enough to lure it out just yet.
both of you say this but you really just left the frogs to damien? but it's fine, he's using his lighting to call down on the frogs. they're relentless, hopping and kicking but some of them fling back as a stray bolt of lightning smacks into the shark.
it flips further out of the ground...almost like it has a weakness? huh. as all three of them land attacks on the shark, they'll feel themselves grow a little more powerful, and they'll be able to watch each other on the field just a little better.]
[Well, luckily, Yasusada is finally in his element and is also used to working with a team! He's even used to heightened senses in general, so this is all very nice and comfortable for him.]
One more--!
[He will send another blast at the shark, but he's running over to help cover Damien as he does, because he is a good teammate who does not want the squishy human today. He can like idk distract the frogs or kick at them or something to help out.]
If you help me with these, I can focus on the shark!
[ ... is what he says right before yasusada comes to help him. and then he doesn't even say thanks or anything.
he's gonna focus on the frogs until they're gone so that he can give the shark his full attention. which, um, maybe isn't that kind to poor marceline since it had been targeting her? well. good luck bitch ]
[ thank you yams for understanding. sharks having a lightning weakness seems obvious but it's good to know, which definitely means they need the frogs away from damien for more than just "he is a redditor, the weakest of all humans, and needs help".
anyway. cola thinks damien is being an ass, and he is, but marcy's idea was to let the boys handle frogs for now and just distract the shark by pew pewing at it from a distance. she is going to be running around to do this. nyoom. the dash and shoot and method ]
[yasusada sends a gust of wind at the shark, but he soon finds that his pin has been depleted. he'll need to wait for it to recharge. at the same time though, marceline's pewpewing from a distance as the shark takes damage, their groove counter crawling higher. her attacks hit a little heavier, and the two of them feel more in sync.
with yasusada's pin depleted all he can do is kick the frogs! this still seems to work though given damien's redirecting the lightning to them. similarly, the groove counter crawls higher and the two of them feel in sync. when one goes one direction, the other comes in from the other side to obliterate one of the frogs.
the frogs are slowly being taken out, and the shark zooms forward toward yasusada and damien while they're distracted with frogs.]
"Move it, yo!"
[this is from the outside. apparently your helper doesn't want you to be sharkbait. roll for damage.]
He will do the mental equivalent of useless button mashing for a minute, but he won't try it for too long when he realizes that the pin is out of juice.
There isn't a lot of time to worry, though--Yasusada catches sight of their shark friend and attempts to dodge, but he's less focused on himself, instead shouting at their spindly twink.]
thank you for the warning. how well can he zap this shark while dodging it? yes he is switching targets and ignoring his own strategy the second anything comes at him. ]
Why do all these weird animals wanna go for Damien!
[ stupid squishy human!! anyway marcy tries to pew pew the shark and if it's too far i guess she is running back in for it. to pew pew. if the pew pew stops working she Will grab her bass-axe and swing ]
[the pew pew does in fact stop working, right about the time the shark lunges and bites right into yam's leggy. this is also about the same time that marceline's swinging with her axe which shouldn't work, but it's enough to deter the frogs and also strike the shark, even as a froggy kicks her right in the face.
damien rolled an 18, so he can dodge pretty dang well! while zapping the shark.
it has a lightning weakness though, which means the shark lets go of yams and soars into the air, flopping on the ground and wriggling like an overgrown fish.
even with the damage the three of them have taken, they'll soon notice that all three of them can feel what the other is doing. they don't even have to speak, but their powers combined give them the sense that they can shoot lightning bullets in a whirlwind around this shark.
all they have to do is agree and focus...concentrate...and trigger their mash-up.
they might want to hurry though! that shark isn't going to stay for long, and the frogs are coming back to tackle all three of them.]
[The shark bite fucking hurts, actually, why does his leg keep getting fucked!!! At least he's used to handling injuries, though, so even if it throws him off somewhat, he doesn't go completely sprawling. He has enough concentration to realize the shark is vulnerable, so:]
Here-- hit it from above, Damien!
[He will not actually just grab and yeet their squishy human into the sky BUT he will hold out his hand, and if Damien takes it then he will help him get a boost up into the air!!! Luckily, as established, Yasusada is strong, so this should work.]
anyway marceline kicks a frog, and actually because she also has a sound pin, using her axe works. wild. the frog is defeated! that solves one problem.
with the three of them in sync, yams possibly bleeding on the ground and damien in the air, a bright burst of red/blue/purple light swirls in front of them and the lightning bullets rain down on the shark. it's an onslaught of an attack, taking out the frogs along with the shark. they had caused damage to the shark prior to this, and after one final strike all of the enemies are defeated.
damien comes crashing down, but he'll be able to float to a safe landing, like maybe these physics aren't so weird after all. all three of them will feel a little tired and drained, like they need an energy boost or some healing, but several pins are scattered on the ground.
- x2 Sugar Beam. Affinity: None. Psych: Force Rounds. Fire rounds at the target. Keep attacking to blast the enemy with a piercing bullet that knocks them back. ¥360 value. - x1 Stylish Beam. Affinity: Ice. Psych: Force Rounds. Fire rounds at the target. Keep attacking to blast enemy a bullet that knocks them back. Chance of freezing the enemy. ¥640 value. - x3 ¥100 - x1 ¥500
all of us hate math, so i will tell you that this is ¥2160 in addition to the money you already had (¥3100, for a total of ¥5260), if you choose to sell your psychs.
the battlefield seems to fade. your synergy is in sync, slowly winding down from the high of the fight and the shark-faced teenager fistpumps in the air.]
"That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!"
[you survived. he takes the card, stamping it with what looks like an image of a skull before handing it back with a toothy grin, the look soon changing to something more thoughtful.]
"I don't know why you're playin' the game, but keep it up. You'll need each other down the line to pull your asses out of the fire."
[and just like that, there's another grin before he mounts his skateboard and zips off.]
[ when sharkboi says he doesn't know why they're playing the game marceline just goes "we literally don't have a choice" but he leaves anyway. oh well. she's only bruised compared to puppy being bit so she's peering at him to see if his leggy is okay ]
Eh. We don't know if we'll need money to get this third stamp or whatever. But we might also need more of these pins if they need to recharge or if these are stronger or whatever. So... let's just sell the double.
[how unfortunate that you currently don't have anything to heal yasusada.
well! you can't seem to head to cat street now, seeing how the entrance to tower records has been boarded up with those same black chains. it looks like their only option is to go back through center street. looking at your records, you will see that your money is calculated there, and your pin information is available. the extra three pins are currently unassigned.
the map says you can go through center street, to 104, and then to dogenzaka.
[None of these involve swords so that sounds fine to him. Instead he focuses on unwinding his scarf, using it to bind his injured leg for now. It's not the best solution, but you do what you have to do.
Dog and zebra? [ no ] Let's look through the stores on the way. Maybe one of them has something we can use that isn't coffee? Can't figure out why else we'd be given money.
[ hmmm. marcy assigns herself the freeze pin also because it's like her current bullets but ? better? she does not ask their opinion on this before she starts walking off to look at stores and restaurants to see what's available. ]
the prices are available, but they won't be able to see the stats because don't be cheaters.
they're free to wander back and forth and decide if they want to buy anything! in addition, upon entering any of the clothing shops, they will find the option to trade in their money pins and any other pins they don't want.]
Anyway thanks for making him hobble around injured while we go on a trip, No Mercy Marceline!!! Yasusada seems fine with this, though. I, pixi, want new fits, but unfortunately Yasusada doesn't care that much about shopping. He will look curiously at all the shops but all he has to say is:]
damien is not opposed to new fits but none of this clothing appeals to him in particular so he is just carrying on. and he doesn't want bubbletea or a whole fucking meal he just wants COFFEE. ]
