((Seriously, so you ra-fine.))
Tabella remains missing. Ghost retreats with her knights to the cackling of the boy and girl.

You just left Tabella to die. Well done.

((Seriously, I already said Personae and magic do not mix, and before I get that, superpowers and Persona and magic don't mix either. Distortions can be countered with the right enchantments or a Makarakarn. None of it is cheating so far as making sure the players can't kill everything without either a HARSH penalty or a plot mandated reason.)

I'm not upset because I refuse to do something unfun in a game. Also she wasn't there so I doubt that one act had her die.

Well, she doesn't die, but she might well do if you simply abandon her.

((So, ending an encounter by one shotting everything is fun now? Fine, I'll allow it, but I'm nerfing it to hell and back.

For every use of the distortion katana's one shot kill, you lose twenty health and ten SP because that is retardely overpowered. Also, you may use the one shot kill ONCE in battle.))

(I call bull shit because he would need something stronger than a distortion to do that.)
((Well, it's a consolidated distortion, which means that's it's extremely lightweight and very easy to parry.))

((You said Kyle gets his powers back when he has Merlin out. Kyle could always do that and it is in fact one of his more effective moves.))
((Quote please, I recall establishing that Personae and magic are mutually exclusive, literally a couple of pages around Yuri's Shadows.))
((Well, he was using magic to assist his blade strikes the whole time against Yuri's shadow.))

((It's not fun. It's just the fights aren't nearly as fun as RP and I just want to get back to that. That and it's really satisfying to one shot someone when you have every reason to. Also you have every reason to make me unable to one shot them if you find it unfun. I wont complain if you had said something like, 'you hit him but your sword clangs off the improvised armor he was wearing under his shirt'. And I suppose I'm fine with the persona thing.))

Now that we have that one bit on why I was not happy with the battle out of the way...
Kyle wasn't leaving. He was just getting some distance to reattempt his normal gunshot strike entrance.

If Twi knew how to fight and stats and mechanics whatsoever, Joan would join this, though she'd probably have to be re-statted.

But blargh. Twi is dealing with depressive attack and not really in the mood to figure it out on his own given how terribly documented the mechanics and such are.

((I assumed the blade itself was magical, not that Kyle was doing it himself. Enchanted weapons are fine, just not having magical powers straight out.

That distortion katana's receiving a nerf. Seriously.))

((@KJ As you put it in a logical way, I'll see what I can do to continue fixing the mechanics. In return, this fight is fought normally. Sound fair?))
[22+ 100!]
....fucking Kyle.

He pretty much guts the poor ...girl. Ouch. Fuck.

She ain't DEAD, granted, but still....ouch. The boy is still downed and unable to retaliate.

((I can do that! Now then, back to the slaughter that I seem to cause at all times when I'm fine and happy!))

Kyle stomps on the boys head while he's down there.

((Well, it never was enchanted by Cyrielle, though it can deconsolidate. However, for that, there's always the chance of severe genophobia and possible temporary loss of certain emotions, or all emotions. Not to mention that it may make him nihilistic for a bit or make him forsake love for a while.))

[45] Kyle doesn't KILL him, but puts him out of commission.
The girl remains alive as she heals herself, but she doesn't look like she wants to fight and puts her hands up in a surrendering gesture.

Encounter over.
Kyle and Ghost get 5 XP
Ghost levels up!
Gain 1 stat point.

Qi wanders around Maria's house, slowly going stir-crazy.

Qi notices Izzy hastily crafting a figure of Lucas. She doesn't seem to know what she's doing,.

Kyle walks up to the girl with his sword in front of him.
"I believe that you're in the position to tell me where I might find my alien."
