[ futaba manages to grab the sus item before their new friend shows up, but it's certainly hard to miss when the lighting goes all weird. her jaw drops in a mix of YOU'RE A DING DANG P*KEMON and Oh Shit. luckily for her, necronomicon is here to keep her on track. she immediately books it so a safe(ish) spot where she can hopefully not be squashed by flying debris ]
It's definitely immune to fire! You're gonna have to get further before I can read its attacks.
[ her voice is pitched to carry so here's hopefully Mr. bird isn't too upset about her navigating ]
[ Shinobu manages to connect to the bird, but there doesn’t seem to be any hint of intelligence behind its eyes. The beak opens up to call, the only thing the group hears is silence.
Immediately the ground beneath them shakes, debris flying down, bouncing off of Shinobu’s shielding harmlessly (13, 3, 4). The entire tower is set on odd blue fire, starting to give off the glow of moonlight, though the fire hasn’t reached them yet (3,4). The group experiences a severe, pounding headache (13). ]
[Well thank fuck for those low rolls. Rin, however, is offended by the presence of blue flames.]
Oi! That's my fire you shitty bird! Knock it off!
[He had an idea but now he has a pounding headache which makes it difficult to think, so instead he's going to grab his knives and go all Fate/All These Knives on the bird. I was going to have him be less cool about throwing knives, but he rolled a 20 so I feel like he deserves some style points.]
[ well, no one can say she didn't try for a peaceful negotiation.
shinobu doesn't really think you can claim fire, but that's neither here nor there. They have to do something about the fire, but the bird is the most imminent danger. The headache helps nothing.
For every blow or wound rin manages to make on the bird, shinobu aims to be magically poisoned (hopefully, after saying her invocation). (13)]
[ thank goodness for rin. futaba sticks to the outskirts, whistling when she watches him OP the enemy and keeping an eye for any updates from her persona.
given how the dice say 8, rin's probably got this more than she has, rip ]
[ futaba once again attempts to booster their overhead defences from the flying debris and with a 16, she's far more successful this time...! heck yeah...!! time to fireb*lt their asses to the door ]
[Behind the group, they hear that new door open up. A tall, lanky, red-headed man yawns. There’s a long pause as he looks up at the bird.]
Arthim.
[The crystal skull glows in his hands as iridescent boney hands grip around the bird’s wings, tossing it far away. He strides forward, takes Shinobu by the collar and unceremoniously tosses her and the rest through the doorway and into the hotel.
The dogs follow.

The knives, forks and assorted cutlery hit the bird, but the poison doesn’t seem to do anything in particular (16).
It flaps its wings once more, burning debris raining down on the group (10, 10, 6).
Behind them a door materializes.]

His attempts to keep attacking aren't going to be as great though. He sees the door but he wants to give everyone a chance to get through first.]
Go on, I'll hold it off!
[With his mighty 6 he will try to hold off the bird for now.]

[ and she does appreciate what they're both doing.
she can't leave anyone behind, so if they let her, she is going to grab both their hands and try to dash the hell outta here.
