it's all too perfect.

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)]

[finalmix]

[ grumbling. even if it's mafuyu's mother-- ]

No one asked for your opinion~

[ he's slamming a giant slice (19) into the bugbear because that bless block is being annoying so that needs to go first ok ]

[cirquedesang]

[A h.

Perhaps his people-pleasing to get through the palace is going a little too far, because he's hit with the brainwash and immediately fires an Eiga at Joshua for a hard hit of Medium Curse (19...)]

[finalmix]

[ at least it's not quite a critical hit...?

but ow.

it's close enough to it anyway that that curse attack sends joshua flying across the room and right into one of the glass windows. the impact is pretty hard but the glass doesn't shatter.

yet.

there are cracks though, and he looks pretty winded.

(definitely cursing up a storm at that though. what the actual fuck.) ]

[cirquedesang]

[And of course the brainwash is cleared right after--

At least it wasn't quite a critical hit............]

Ah- Sorry...!

[That. Really looks bad. And he can't even give a Dia since heals aren't free- But there is a mental note to make it up to him somehow eventually.]

[goei]

[Izou's trying another Maeiga, which does miss the Bugbear (9) but lands bigly on the Leanan Sidhe (20).]

Perhaps you should shut the hell up, huh!? How about that!!

[ledbythewind]

[HELLO DO NONE OF YOU APPRECIATE CLEANSES

why u making Richard have to do all of this.

Energy Shower for Arven and Celeste!!!]

[cirquedesang]

[Thank u much appreciate--]

[supherb]

[He’s holding his head in horror as soon as he comes out of it. He feels so gross.]

S-Sorry…I’m sorry…

[emptyself]

[ oh my god soujuurou is so fucking sick of the bugbear that he's calmly going to give it a hard punch (13) to where he figures the diaphragm would be. ]

[cleansewithfire]

[ Sunrise looks up for a moment as if that will let her locate the source of the voice, but then tries to use a Giant Slice on the Leanan Sidhe. It misses (4) ]

[supherb]

[Now it’s time for Arven’s eyes to go dull as he turns to have Hestia unleash Maragi upon the party, hitting Soujuurou (17) and Izou (20) while scattering flames around the others and across the banquet hall.]

[emptyself]

[ soujuurou yelps when struck by the fire, eyes wide as plates as he realizes what's going on. the fire damage hurts, but he's still standing. ]

Arven!! Arven snap out of it! We're not your enemy!

[goei]

[Izou: EVERYONE IS SO MEAN TO ME

He yelps ws he's burned by fire, but the crit means Arven does enough structual damage to the top of Izou's kimono (he's in just his normal outfit but white... His normal hakama are already tattered) that it's now irreparably hanging open exposing his chest to torment Amity and like half of the guys in Lanternfam.]

Oi get yer head on straight, Picnic!!

[beathollow]

Leanan Sidhe casts Psio on Izou (10) and just barely misses- maybe it's because she's getting worn down a bit.

Meanwhile, Bugbear is getting the stuffing beaten out of it. It's looking kinda ragged, and decides to use Life Drain on Aubrey... but totally beefs it.
