[i mean, seriously, how is he even doing that, that's electricity and levitating weapons, 9S the self-proclaimed nonmagical cyborg is fighting like Mikleo's lightning seraph grandpa might have fought, back in the day
(yes they are in peril but he can take a moment to think that's real neat, okay.)
he doesn't try to distract 9S further, focusing on hustling the Palai along and safely behind the barriers they've caught up. the Uvi decide to try countering 9S's blades with a shark-filled projectile of their own, at some point in that fight; 9S picks up Mikleo's rising snarl just as that projectile suddenly freezes solid in midair, dropping to the street and shattering a moment later.]
no subject
[Because she's the real big gun, and he's well aware of it. 9S' role has been support with good reason, and even his melee attacks being largely indirect bespeaks this. And when that water's frozen solid, he wonders briefly if Mikleo's used to backing up others too.
It's a fleeting thought as he springs away before that ice falls, afterimages blooming out around him. They fade quickly, but they last long enough that the nearest Uvi lunges for one instead of him, and in the next moment his bracers circle back to strike it square in the head]
Thanks— I'm not made to combat magic.
no subject
[enough that he felt comfortable striking out and letting the coven's other water users handle the area nearer the shields. he lunges out, birdlike, and just outright scruffs a Palai who's lagging behind the rest, hustling down the street at speed while carrying it]
Watch the sharks, they still bite once the ice shatters. I can't freeze living things all the way through that fast.
no subject
[Basking sharks were a fairly mild-mannered species, and it's easy to surmise anything the Uvi would bring are going to be far more hostile. He eyes the creature in question for an instant before turning to strike another approaching attacker, knocking it over.
Casting a glance around, he doesn't spot any Uvi lingering that aren't dead or unconscious, though he wouldn't be surprised if more emerged]
Pretty sure it wouldn't like the results of biting me though.
no subject
[he wants to know why, of course, but -- another time, a safer time. herds the rest of the Palai into the building, then whips back around to where 9S is; it takes less than a minute with him actually bundling them along.
...what a mess...]
...Yikes. We'll have to clean these up, but -- did you take any injury?
no subject
Nothing I can't repair, so long as I keep corrosives out.
[The seawater is something of a concern, but not enough to stop him from dispensing with the nearest shark as soon as it begins to move]
What about you? [To him, the more important question] Are you okay?
no subject
[he sets about finishing off what's left as well; heavy blows of his front legs are enough. he doesn't want to go so far as to actually bite them; it feels like he's going too far into actual malevolent dragon behavior if he does that.
when he finished and gets a better look at 9S, he actually does note the rip and shake his head a little]
...I can't heal machinery, but if any water got in there, I can get it out again.
no subject
[His unit type is far more aware of systems than others, and for that reason he knows he'll be able to determine whether any of this seawater got into his leg. For the time being it isn't a particular threat, but he'd rather not leave it unattended once the battle's concluded]
Having a form like that's got to be pretty handy though. I don't have the same mobility without a flight unit.
no subject
[cranes his neck up from 9S's leg, surveying the wreckage]
It shouldn't take that long to finish up the rest of this, though...I hope.
no subject
[9S follows his line of sight, scanning their surroundings. There's information he can pick up on the environment simply by merit of what he is as well, and he extends his focus to that end]
I'm picking up on less hostiles... So I'd say we're making inroads at least.
no subject
[a thread of tiredness creeps into his voice; he never thought the vague mission Qri gave them originally would wind up landing them in the middle of an alien war.]
Which way? Let's get this done.
no subject
Let's see here... [He frowns, reviewing dark marks that indicate enemy presence] Some have gathered by the commercial district, probably trying to get past the shields there.
[It reminds him of how machines would congregate around transports in an effort to disable them]
no subject
If we can get close enough without their spotting us, I can cloak us until we're right in the middle of them, take them by surprise. Here.
[gestures with his nose to a likely-looking spot, in the thick of the Uvi but with sufficient building cover on the way]
no subject
The difference is he's modified himself, but avoiding battles until the right moment is the best way to make use of hacking. So he sees the sense in it easily enough, nodding]
I can do that.
[He traces a path between buildings to the place Mikleo selected]
How about an approach like this?
no subject
[the problem with the Palai being smaller than your average human is that their dwellings and thoroughfares are also correspondingly tinier. whoops! the sneak attack's doable, though.]
no subject
We'll just imagine he was so eager to team stealth with Mikleo that he forgot telepathy was a thing for a hot second.9S considers the close quarters for a moment with a thoughtful hum]
Would it be easier for you to approach from above? I should be able to sneak around just fine if your power doesn't have a lot of range. It's what I do.
[Or rather what he's supposed to do, but when his hobby's collecting and analyzing combat data...]
no subject
[is there anything you can't do, 9S, he genuinely wonders for a moment. that's an enviable amount of flexibility]
no subject
[Skulking about is a legitimate skill]
But I was also designed to adapt, so I guess that part's sorta true.
no subject
[there's some sympathy there, but they're close enough to the Uvi now that they can't afford to get into it further; Mikleo furls his wings, preparing to take to the air again.]
no subject
"I will fight for humanity with all my strength"
Kind of ironic, since I wasn't meant to fight at all.
[9S can spare the focus on mental chatter, even if he shouldn't. It's in his nature, though as he transmits that, he's following the path he'd laid out. Despite his weight, he's good enough at sneaking up on enemies with minimal noise involved.
And when he draws near enough, his weapon flickers out of sight before reappearing in the air and shooting toward the Uvi gathered there, whipping around them in a vicious circle]
