[Since Josh has the heals for this round covered, Richard is going to instead aim a Tiger's Prowl (13) at Oberon as it seems determined to be particularly annoying!]

ROUND 2

[beathollow]

Oberon isn't looking too good... But he can still fight. He casts Nocturnal Flash, missing Soujuurou (8), hitting Joshua (12), Arven (19), Izou (12), and Richard (17), as well as inflicting DIZZY upon those he hits.

Bugbear casts Life Drain on Soujuurou (17).

Leanan Sidhe casts Marin Karin on Joshua, inflicting BRAINWASH.

[supherb]

[OOF. That one hurts, and now Arven is staggering from getting hit with Dizzy. He almost stumbles into the banquet table.

That dizziness is going to be a pain, so he has Hestia cast Me Patra to cure himself and the others inflicted with it.]

[goei]

[I'm getting real sick of this dude (Oberon). But Izou isn't able to do anything about it, since his sword swing just barely misses (9) as he stumbles, vision sparkling from the flash.]

[finalmix]

[ with both brainwash and dizzy in effect honestly it's a wonder that joshua is functioning tbh,

but anyway, he's lunging at soujuurou to deal a giant slice that barely misses (10, 14) ]

Why fight? You should stop now~

[emptyself]

Joshua!?

[ oh thank god for his reflexes. he jumps out of the way with a yelp, assuming a defensive position. ]

They.... they messed with his head!

[ he's not bringing monkeys into this equation. ]

[goei]

Yeah that's what I was talkin' about!

[emptyself]

But this still has nothing to do with monkeys.

[goei]

Figures of speech don't gotta make sense, Soujuurou!

[supherb]

J-Just try to hold him ‘til me or Richard can cure it!

[goei]

I'm on it!

[He's gonna put Joshua in a full nelson.]

[finalmix]

Get off!

[ that's not going to get rid of the brainwash and joshua will use his next action to actually try and break free but for now he's just struggling because he's a scrawny teenager rest in fucking pieces ]

[ledbythewind]

That's not--

[HELLO IT IS ENERGY SHOWER TIME NOW???]

[emptyself]

[ soujuurou is still reeling from the moral implications of the events during his brainwashing, which means that he takes that life drain head on. he stumbles back, gasping, before throwing himself at the bugbear and narrowly missing a punch to the head. (10)

[beathollow]

Oberon tries to use Nocturnal Flash again, but. He really only hits Richard (14). ... Enjoy being dizzy again, Richard.

Bugbear laughs at Soujuurou. It then proceeds to just whap him with it's big spikey plush arms for 17.

Leanan Sidhe casts Psio on Joshua for... nothing! She misses.

[goei]

[Well we are all effectively casting our aoe attacks as single target this turn, because Izou's blasting off a Maeiga for medium curse damage, but it only hits Oberon (14) while missing Bugbear (7) and Leanan Sidhe (10).]

Quit it with the damn flashing already!

[supherb]

[Sorry Richard, Arven really needs to get some healing out because the damage is starting to add up.

Media is cast to heal himself, Soujuurou, Richard and Joshua.]

[ledbythewind]

[LITERALLY WHY. He's wasting his action on a Me Patra for himself, NO THANKS...!!]

[emptyself]

[ oh my god, he takes that hit directly, crumpling to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut. has he really gotten this dull since coming down from the mountains?

he really just isn't doing much other than trying to pick himself up from the floor right now (1). jesus christ. ]

[cirquedesang]

[So with some of Mafuyu's things returned to her room, Celeste goes to check on the Foodies(tm) and? They're fighting?

Well, time to get involved, he guesses, casting a Maeiga... kind of ineffectively, but hopefully it's just because he just got there, because it only hits Oberon for a bit of damage (11), and misses Leanan Sidhe (9) and the Bugbear (6).]

[cleansewithfire]

[ Hm, why is it that she manages to walk into a fight?

Sunrise uses Magarula, but it proceeds to whiff on Oberon and Leanan Sidhe (6, 8), though it manages to land on Bugbear (18). ]

[moodwrecker]

Heads up!

[Because Aubrey is coming in swinging - literally, she's here to hit Oberon with a Giant Slice (18)]

[finalmix]

[ he's unbrainwashed now and izou has let him out of that hold so he's rolling out of the way

(let us never talk about this again)

and he's firing off a makouha at leanan sidhe and oberon which alas, misses (4, 6) and bounces off the bugbear bc of the block... rip... ]

[beathollow]

Oberon dies with a wail, and only two remain.

Unfortunately, they both know Marin Karin. Bugbear brainwashes Arven, while Leanan Sidhe brainwashes Celeste.

Hmph. Perhaps you should reconsider your allies.

... That was Mafuyu's mother?

[moodwrecker]

[So they need to burn down the other two ASAP too, got it.]

Mabufula!

[Jade Rabbit appears to try to ice, them, but unfortunately she misses on both counts (6, 2)]
