[Before Hange even understands what is going on, the creature bursts into flames and begins to panic, suddenly coming for them at top speed in all its blazing glory!]
Ehhh?!
[It's getting closer and Hange's mind is going at 500mph trying to work out what they should do. Jump in the lake? Try to run? Try to kill it? There's a trusty knife in their little pack, but nothing to hold it with if both ears need to be covered. Besides, the fire doesn't even seem to be damaging it! Perhaps it needs more?]
[With that in mind, they take their hands off their ears for just a moment- just long enough to whip up a fireball in their hands (a rather large one, funny how much magical power you can put into something when the adrenaline is running!) after which Hange tosses it directly at the sprinting banshee before covering both ears once more.]
[Because obviously adding even MORE fire to the mix is going to calm the thing down, right?? Oh boy. The end effect is that the monster is still coming directly for them, seemingly a lot more panicked, yet now the flames are even larger and it's only by pure luck that it hasn't spread any embers to the grass or trees.]
Oh no! Shit!!
[So much for that idea!!]
Should we swim across the lake??
[Hopefully Hijikata heard that or at least gets the idea, as Hange begins moving closer towards the lakeshore...]
im dying rn (feat: further monster immolation..)
