NICO LEHMANN

The explosion burst from Varus just as Nico was about to collide with the instructor, the force of the point-blank counter blasting him backwards and into Donovan, the red sigil disappearing in the process as Nico completely lost focus. On the bright side, he was somewhat figuring out how to turn his powers on and off. On the not-so-bright side, he had just been hit by a massive magical detonation.

The impact against Donovan knocked the wind out of Nico and elicited a gasping cough that should have been a shout of pain. The ringing in his ears and the blurriness of his vision soon faded to a muted buzzing in darkness as he found he couldn't keep his eyes open any longer. Amazed that he had somehow survived something so powerful, and wondering how much of it he had even managed to affect with his powers, Nico's last thoughts before the darkness swallowed up his consciousness was a calm realization that his glasses had been knocked off for the second damn time that day.

They're probably broken, too...

And then he was out cold.

I'll be writing up a "Nico is out cold" post because no way did that not knock him out, hahaha. It'll be brief.

Four Winds

Let's all have a moment of silence for Enver, who is still running around setting everything on fire.

I still don't think a revision is necessary given Alice's planning. She had plans. Other people had plans. With no coordination, is it really so strange that the plans collided like two runaway trains?

Edit: Three runaway trains.

If Scio has technical issues, that's another matter, but the actual plan itself isn't something to be that worried about.

@Nanashi Ninanai

No one knows how Scio plans to handle OPV or anything else, so don't worry about your post. Besides, we all know that saying about the best laid plans of mice and men, haha.

@BassDropp

Haha, just go for the most intense punch to the back of head. Inb4 Riffus's suggestion comes true and Varus dodges so Donovan gets a faceful of Colossus fist.

Four Winds

Nico will get over his hatred of tarantulas, haha.

Four Winds

Banjo snazzily interjects with the terrifying reality of Rhian's power.

Thanks, bro.

@Baklava

Nah, cardio of a tranquilized snail, remember? He'll take like five steps and keel over, praying for the tarantula to end it swiftly. Only to sigh in relief when it ignores him and continues chasing Rhian.

@Baklava

This is true. They can both run away screaming in abject terror.
