Argenti's Palace

[beautifulknight]

The stage is set they say;
They don their masks and shields,
Shadows creep and cover their minds;
Now, what beautiful role shall they play?

[That's a lot of debuffs!! Fray doesn't even have time to roll his eyes at Argenti's words, instead focusing on using Energy Shower to cure Sayaka, Aaron, and Aerith of Brainwash. Followed up is a Me Patra to Richard, Mafuyu, and Maika. With that bit of support out of the way...

Fray turns his attention on the shadow, eyes glowing red. Though he's primarily been focused on the lions, it's time to put an end to this. See what truly lies beneath? Yeah, like that'll ever stop him. Here's another Thunderous Rage coming your way, buddy! (15)]

[destage]

[--Ah. Sayaka's eyes finally snap out of that strange trance, and she blinks once, twice, and...why is there...blood...on the knife...

...

Oh dear god, she's horrified.]

[bloodweapon]

Try to keep your focus - we need to keep fighting.

[He knows she's going to apologize but like, please do not get too distracted feeling bad...]

[destage]

R-Right. Right I--right. ...Right.

[Sayaka kind of just. Gulps down her feelings. She can process them later after she's healed Izou a little bit, but...]

We need to save Argenti-kun. We need to get him out of this.

[bloodandstars]

...Thanks.

[ What Maika is learning from this fight is that she's going to show more appreciation to her supports in the future. You're a good dude, mysterious armor man. ]

[bloodweapon]

[A nod! Always happy to help out. And always remember to comm your healers!]

[imperiosity]

[Even after the Energy Shower, he's still shaking his head a bit like he's trying to get his bearings again, but he'll nod at Fray in thanks.]

Ugh... that bastard's asking for it now.

[bloodweapon]

We'll put a stop to this.

[There isn't much of a choice, after all. If we're going to drag Argenti home, we're going to have to beat him up first.]

[imperiosity]

With you there, man. This guy's caused enough trouble already!

[Freaking out everyone for a week or so and now this!!]

[beathollow]

T-thank you...

( she's a little distracted because her heroic spirit is dying- )

[bloodweapon]

[A nod! Focus on your dad(?) he needs it more than Fray needs thanks.]

[gardenful]

[ Man, she still feels out of it, but she at least nods in thanks. You're a real one, Fray. ]

[bloodweapon]

[Of course, always here to help (when he remembers he's Utility)!]

[ledbythewind]

[Fray gets a nod of thanks and a rare glimpse of something that might almost be a smile.

... and then he gets hit by that Mapsiodyne, but y'know. C'est la vie.]

[bloodweapon]

[He tried so hard, got so far... and still got smacked around smh.]
