...Or, well, more accurately, he can, literally, in this case.
He's just about to stand again, as Yoon cleanses him of the despair, when Lumen's kick meets his ribs with a sickening series of cracks and he finally fully hits the ground. The boot on his neck for good measure gets a string of colorful language from the floor, as well, similar, but not quite the same from that above.
He is not; however, prepared to take his fate lying down, and as Soujuurou and Sayaka get him talking, Celeste shifts his body into a slightly better position, braces himself for the pain his next action will surely cause himself, and waits for a good moment to move. AKA, once he's done with his exposition.
When he does, it's to whip his legs up behind Lumen, wrapping them around his waist while pushing down on the floor with his hands, hoping to get just enough leverage to get out from under his foot, so he can pull himself up the rest of the way onto Lumen's back (15).
If Lumen stays standing: He'll continue the motion by hooking one arm around his neck once he is high enough to do so, and will be trying to grab the arm holding the harpoon with the other.
If Lumen topples: He'll unwrap one leg from around his waist to step on the wrist of the hand holding the harpoon, and put his hands on his shoulders, intending to try and keep him pinned to the floor.
In either case, he will end up spitting some blood off to the side with another muttered curse.
Maybe now the squad can focus on getting more exposition from him and also cleansing the algae, if he's distracted and/or restrained enough???]
