Raz was getting eager to do something, and the temptation of wrecking these statues was just too... uh, tempting. Once the plan to free the ringer and let the bell ring formed, Raz already surrounded the closest statue with his TK, gripping its torso like a giant action figure. All it would take was a tight squeeze, popping the thing in two. Almost too easy...!

And then any proceedings were put on hold for an impromptu team meeting. "What're we waiting for?" Raz called to the others, "by the time we decide on anything that big creature might already be dead!" Phalanx had taken quite a beating already, and it was hard to tell if it was on the losing end or not, but surely going at it enough times would make it start to bleed, and once that happened, well, Raz didn't know how to suture something that size.

The group wasn't going to be swayed on his words alone though, so Raz begrudged the hold up and went to meet with the rest. As bad of an attitude Celia had, Raz agreed with her. Any momentum they had in their respective focus hit a collective dead end, and now it just felt awkward huddling around to decide what next.

"I think we should be a teensy bit more thorough here before we go straight to the idea of killing something because it happens to be around," Raz said with a bit of a 'tude himself. "If that's all that mattered then [i]that[/i] guy could be the Champion." He gestured to Redento. "Which I hope you aren't, since you seem like an okay guy, but if you are you should speak up now."

Phalanx was more than just "around", of course, a fact which it made very clear with its decision to finally fight back. Was it waiting for an opening like this, where everyone was together? Maybe the thing was smarter than it was given credit to be. But there wasn't time to be debating that, what with being attacked and all. Raz hunkered down with the rest behind the uber-shield his teammates built up, using the time to fire off a quick Psi-Blast at one of the bell statues. There wasn't much time to discuss now.

Therion and Primrose opting to continue fighting Phalanx made Raz stop, however. "What? You can't!" His fingers to his temple, Raz psychically grabbed Therion's collar again, holding him in place as Raz turned to the others.

"I don't know much about what's happening in this world, but I'm sure that that thing didn't ask to be here same as any of us! It shouldn't be punished for doing things against its will." Raz was working up to some big speech, he could feel it!

Then Midna went and just did what we was about to suggest. To his credit Raz only barely floundered. "Uhh, yeah, good idea! I'm gonna take credit for that, was totally what I was going to say."
