As Rin slapped another bandage on him, Tracey once again set upon it with gusto, putting every ounce of energy in it to good use replenishing his shield so that he could go again. The monster was gathering itself for another attack, but this time he was unafraid, even with breathing still ragged and difficult and the world still swimming as if in a haze. They could do this, he knew, they just had to keep their cool.
He set Tracey in front of Melvin like a steel barrier, defending him.
"Shoot goldilocks, make it count."

Melvin waited, defending the pair and watching as they patched themselves up. Part of him that was feeling like hell wished he had more than one bandage, but the more important part of his brain was glad that the two people who packed the most power were getting geared up for another round. It didn't matter how he felt aside from being alive. It was very clear back at the mission desk that he was a tag along, a extra who was here for the ride but really wasn't bringing anything to the table.
When the pair was patched, Rin seemed it was best for Rep to defend him of all people, and he was aware that it was very heard to hide a charged weapon when it glowed like Rudolph's nose in the fog. It made him wish they didn't take notice, and soon Rep's massive weapon was in front of him. A weapon who had done an impossible amount of damage with the flair of a game character by it's wielder. So no pressure, right?
"Right." He said, not feeling all that pumped. Already feeling faint, he swallowed hard before aiming. Yes! Let's do this! Saliva was pumped, excited, and all to eager to get the mass of energy from her gut out. Melvin could only aim and pray this worked. His success rate with his charges had been laughable at best.
A bright, glowing green orb shot out, brimming with a toxic green energy that raced through the fog and vanished. He waited, but when he heard the splat and lack of reaction from the fog, he knew he missed. As if to laugh back at him, a flicking tendril shot out, smacking at Rep and past him to nudge Melvin back, making him feel just as pale and weak as before.

It's okay Melvin, Rin understands all about performance anxiety. She reached out to carefully grab his gloved hand to try and haul him back as tendrils seemed to wrap around themselves and prepare for a bigger attack.
"Cover Rep," she demanded as she put everything into lifting Byr again. Blade flat and ready to protect Rep as best she could. Which wasn't much as it turned out. With a pained grunt, she lowered her weapon again. Unable to protect. It felt terrible to know as much as she struggled his blade still touched the ground.

Melvin didn't look at Rin as she helped him back to his own unsteady balance before he resumed what he felt he could possibly offer to the group now. A bit of defense in hopes they could make it.
"Right." He said, before bringing back his own weapon and standing near rep just as he had done for him to use his own charge. "You're up."

Rep gave Melvin a pitying look as his attack went wide of the mark. Putting that much combat pressure on a guy used to the labs more than the battlefield probably wasn't the best idea, all considered.
"Eh. Happens to the best of us mate."
He'd tried, that was all that mattered as far as Rep was concerned, they still had this well in hand, and as the creature lashed out at him once again, Rep was positioned to shove it back with the flat of the blade.

"We just get up, dust our self off, and try again," Rin suggested as she threw everything she had into lifting Byr again, this time adequately covering Rep. Her teeth bared at the encroaching sickness of nightmarish tendrils and clawed hands. She refused to give up. They ******** had this. They weren't going down without a fight.
Byr crooned with approval in the back of Rin's thoughts.

As everyone else got pumped, Melvin was still a bit deflated. He usually didn't take tests of physical skill or battle (not that he ever had been in one before Deus), to heart. He had pretty much accepted this wasn't his game, but it didn't help your pride having people who had your back watch you fail. It wasn't that he was failing by himself, it was that he was also failing to contribute. This whole team thing was really getting to him.
Now he just felt ready to drop like a rock, the fog swirling and moving and making his head spin. He stood his own ground, defending as best he could, but noticed a faint glowing from Rin. "Seems your up."

Rep at least, didn't consider anyone to be failing in their duties to the team. He was alive, he was feeling healthy and he was still capable of hitting s**t. In his world that meant everyone was doing their jobs and doing them right. He didn't even notice the rising charge building in Tracey until he raised the axe and noticed it felt lighter.
The creature hissed at him, long spindly claws deflected by the defence of the two Life hunters backing him up, and he smirked. What terror there had been before vanished like so much mist on the wind, leaving only a predatory delight.
He wasn't the one being hunted any more.
"Don't let it ******** escape." he snarled as he swung out, this time with confidence and raw force, clashing the massive blade against solid fear. Again it cried out, this time in strangled surprise.
Tracey lit up like times square.

Melvin is right, how could Rin have not realized? She'd... never gone this far before. Not really. She glanced at the blazing green runes that offered a tell-tale sign that yes, it was very true. Byr had only ever healed so... she honestly didn't know what exactly he had on offer.
She shifted him in her hand then placed him gently against Rep again just in time for the green to burst forth and engulf Rep's fear shield. Not repairing it this time, but empowering it. It was almost as if, for a moment, Rep had two weapon forces backing him.
Rin just stared in wonderment, now sure what the ******** Byr just did.

Melvin was staring too. "What the hell did you just do?" He had seen them heal, but this was something that was lingering instead of seeping in. On a scientific viewpoint, he was very curious on the properties of weapons interacting with other weapons, especially in regarding to healing and other boosting properties, not just raw power alone. He also wondered the wide range of possibilities weapons could use. Maybe he should have checked in with Sasha as she was helping Dakota on this field, or better yet, just go to Dakota to chat. There was also the weapons tech department in life.
For now, he just watched.

At first Rep thought Rin was healing him. But whatever she did didn't so much go to his shield as his head, sharp and clear even through the haze of chemicals. He gave her a baffled look but there wasn't time to ask exactly what the ******** she'd done.
The creature was gathering itself back up for another assault and before it did, Rep decided to at least get rid of the charge he was carrying, not able to focus with Tracey purring in his head. He shot a glance at Melvin who out of the three of them was looking the worse for wear.
"I don't ******** care if you asked me not to do it again." he snarled as he seized the other man's arm, letting the shadows swirl up from Tracey's black steely blade along his arm, across his shoulders and down the arm holding onto Melvin, where said shadows promptly vanished leaving only a strange and lingering cold sensation, sweet and seductive. He let him go immediately and turned back to the battle at hand, finally free of the distracting predatory rage of the charge.

"I don't know," Rin gave Melvin a baffled look before looking back to Rep keenly looking for any change. There seemed to be. Rep was acting more... assertive but strong at the same time. Even if he used it to heal - the green seemed to linger still. Did this mean it wasn't over yet?
Rin looked back to Melvin, he looked much less worn and haggard and it gave her a sensation of relief. Good. No one was going to be passing out. She shifted to defend Rep again, "I want to see what it does though~" She shot Rep a playful wink.

Melvin had been waiting for an attack when he noticed Rep turn towards him. Sure, his weapon was glowing, but he REALLY didn't want to fail again, and lowered his gun slightly at his side to hide the runes. Before he could even jerk away, Rep clamped his hands over his arms like a vice and lifted him up just slightly as he turned his axe to him. It took him a moment to realize Rep wasn't going to hack off another limb to add to his quota and was instead healing, and he was even more alarmed by it.
"Rep, I said -" Before he could even stop him (as if he could), Rep was already pouring Fear into his shield. The sensation came with a mixture from the chill of cold and the uncomfortableness of feeling someone else's fear wash over him, to the sweet, delicious sensation of feeling better, warmed, and more clear in his mind - all due to Rep's and his weapon's Fear.
Released, he rubbed where the Sun had held him, not looking at him or even Rin as the Sun turned to readdress the fog. Whatever cool or collective looks he had in his vast repertoire were gone to leave the Lifer looking unsure and uncomfortable.
We went back to defending, not saying much else.

Rep swung as the creature drew nearer again, fragmenting, struggling to hold its shape, sometimes an eye here, a bony finger there. But it was done for, even the attempts to attack were futile and fleeting. It had claimed unfortunates in its reign here, but every monster that overstepped its bounds inevitably answered to them. He'd never thought he'd ever end up on the side of the good guys, but here he was, policing reality with a pedantic nerd and one of his best friends.
At least it was never boring.
The razor sharp clarity of whatever the hell Rin had done to him persisted, and he was sure he could either smell that fresh foresty berry scent that came with Byr's fear, or someone had brought a ******** magic tree with them on a mission.
"Sorry mate, it's closing time." he snarled at the creature as he brought the axe down on it in one finishing sweep. Sometimes it was just impossible to resist the allure of cheesy one liners.
It didn't reform.
