Sometimes you'll fly, sometimes you'll fall
Who: Xion and errybody
Where: In and around Aimintas
When: During the Uvi attack
Open
A. The question is
[It was almost humorous. The Uvi were doing now what Xion had been planning for all along: bringing their powers with them down to Aimintas. All of her preparation feels less foolish now, and she's tearing around town like a girl on a mission.
Well, she kind of is. Self-appointed mission or no.
If your character is having any trouble with this new tactic, Xion might very well be there to help. If they find a ball of carnivore-filled ocean barreling down upon them, it may suddenly shoot up at the last second, arcing right over your character's head. If they're trapped in swirling waters, the currents might slacken, enough for them to break themselves free. If they're in danger of drowning, the water might suddenly be shoved away from their face with explosive force, giving them room to breathe.
In ways both big and small, she's doing all she can to help.]
B. Which do you take to heart
[She's not sure what causes it: if they remembered her as one of the ones who froze their home, if she's been doing a little too well at impeding their water attacks on the Palai and the rest of the coven, or even if they just singled her out as a water user and therefore a nuisance they wanted out of the way.
What she does know is that all of a sudden, she's encircled by a good... five at least, of the Uvi, and that a huge mass of the ocean waters she's been trying to disrupt are surrounding her now.
She'd gotten this far with surprise and misdirection. Her powers were barely strong enough to meet one Uvi head-to-head. Five? Not a chance, though she's trying. Mustering all of her powers that she can, she's managed to form a small pocket of air around her head and upper body to give herself room to breathe, at least. She's ultimately defenseless against the fish inside though, the currents the Uvi are trying to disorient her with, and the inexorable pressure they're putting on her little sanctuary, trying to crush it so they can continue their attempts to drown her.
Help would be appreciated.]

b!!
[ he recognizes her and this is definitely bad news. the uvi are even more ruthless than before and with the addition of all this water chaos, there's even more danger than usual. it's a hazardous situation, indeed, and akira certainly is quick on his feet but this is bad, even for him.
so he's going to fling his knives at the uvi to try and steal their attention back to him, at least enough for xion for regain her footing so to speak. he'll summon a persona in a minute if he needs to, but he's fairly certain he can give way to a great chase if necessary. ]

They're still too powerful for her to try seizing control of the orb of water itself but, maybe if... Surprise and misdirection have been working best so far.
For a brief moment she pushes out with her powers, trying to make the bubble a bit bigger. Then, taking a deep breath, she lets go of the bubble entirely, instead slamming as much force as she can straight down, as if to shove a cylinder of water no more than two feet in diameter into the ground. The cylinder beneath her, to be specific.
It works, to an extent. The current is still moving, so the "cylinder" doesn't stay intact, but by the time it's overwhelmed, Xion's already most of the way through. She could've done without that last brush against a jellyfish, though.
As she tumbles to the ground though, she's already moving, rolling to try to get her feet under her.]
Th-thanks.

Here!
[ he shouts it just after he murmurs diaharan under his breath. even if xion isn't bleeding or injured, a quick heal will help regardless. he seems to be quite capable otherwise. ]
