[I swear, y'all are gonna make my jiiii elements into like elements and it will be WEIRD.]

[And that whole body language thing may make more sense now. The Carapacian never talks, but it's easy to somehow taking that flailing and get words.]

"We're all going to die! Everything is burning don't you see?!"

From:

secretofthefox

It'll be okay. The fire doesn't hurt me. And I'll protect you and get you to safety.

Are there any others nearby?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[Wait what.]

"Can you really?!"

From:

secretofthefox

Yup!

[There's probably something on fire close by so he'll just stick his hand right in it for a couple seconds... and then pull it out and it's completely fine, no injury at all :D]

See?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

"I mean the protection, stupid boy!"

[Carapacians are kinda Rude, sorry.]

From:

secretofthefox

[...

oh]

Of course. I mean, what'd I just do?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

"Then we need to leave! More drones are coming!"

From:

secretofthefox

[nod nod]

Are there more of you?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

"Of course there are, we're a colony!"

From:

secretofthefox

Where are they? I'll clear a path to somewhere safe for everybody.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[The Carapacian looks at him, incredulous.]

"They're everywhere! Everything is on fire!"

From:

secretofthefox

Okay, okay.

[Well, the best thing to do is pull the Carapacian up onto his back so he's giving the little guy a piggy back ride and then fly up into the air to see if he can spot any others.]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[There is a lot.]

[It's a really big colony.]

From:

secretofthefox

[...he maaaaaay be biting off more than he can chew with this, huh.

...Well, he can at least try. He'll try and use a Light-y thing to know where the closest large group is and head over there, if nothing else.]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[A tiny bit.]

[But that does help narrow it down. Though the larger groups are more near the center of the colony with the robots, and away from the Lab. Lighty pings say he'll probably have to deal with more bullshit deviating from the path.]

[But it may also do more good to save more Carapacians.]

From:

secretofthefox

[...okay yeah saving the Carapacians is more important than avoiding dealing with crap, and besides they're important to Roxy

also he promised, didn't he?

flying over toward where they'll be then, because maybe he can carve a path and have the group follow him to the lab which he hopes is safer

or, you know, if all else fails, set fire to some robots or something]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[You pyro.]

[You go further and further in, and there's more fire, and more strings, and now there's a large group of Carapacians.]

[And six twelve foot tall robots seem to have noticed you.]

[And started firing robots.]

From:

secretofthefox

[...The robots are firing robots? ...Why is he even surprised, this is Roxy's world.

Okay, first he'll deposit the Carapacian on the ground where things aren't quite as dangerous.]

Go hide! Fiere, get the rest of them to safety.

Okay.

[And then he'll put all the luck and relevance he can into his sword again and attack the projectiles - surely he can hit them in just the right way to destroy them harmlessly without hurting anyone]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[Rockets, I'M SORRY, THERE ARE ROCKETS.]

[You attack the rockets! You do manage to hit most, but it's harder to hit all of them without some exploding a little less than harmlessly.]

From:

secretofthefox

[Fiere will do what he can to get the Carapacians away from any falling shrapnel. Sol is immune to fire, and if he's hit with shrapnel, at least he's not going to bleed out because auto-cauterize. The sheer number of rockets isn't good...

...but what if they all aim at one place.

Time to exploit what relevance he's got to make himself a shining beacon target (aka Sol used Taunt) and fly up high in the air.]

Hey! Robots! Why don't you pick on somebody who can take it?

[The goal here is, get them all to attack one thing, namely him. Then, use what luck he's got to avoid being hit and attack the rockets, since they're all in one place, in such a way that they'll all be destroyed. The fire will be up here then, and hopefully Fiere will get the Carapacians out of the line of shrapnel by then.]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[....you are a crazy mofo, Sol.]

[The robots are all too happy to shoot at you, and the Carapacians are obedient, following after Fiere. So long as Fiere is fast enough, they're willing to get out of the way.]

[But that iiiiiis a lot of rockets, so you're gonna have quite a bit of shrapnel to deal with.]

From:

secretofthefox

[He's a fox. Foxes can run fast.

...also oh my god Roxy I can't believe this is happening but KNIGHT DIDN'T SHOOT THIS IDEA DOWN so um

he's

going to try and create a giant laser beam from Light powers to just incinerate all the shrapnel before it can be harmful.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[....]

[WELL.]

[That certainly gets rid of most of it, particularly the big pieces. Still smaller ones because that's what happens when you take on a bunch of rockets, some cuts are gonna happen. But it's not fatal, so win?]

From:

secretofthefox

[Taking out the big ones so it's not fatal was the goal! And cuts are gonna happen no matter what.

Now to directly attack the closest robot with his sword. Going for the weak spot!]
