[ She's already out there, believe her. And frowning quite unhappily, as some unfamiliarly large skeleton goes rampaging about, stopping only to glower down at the pair of them. ]
[there's no time to try and shoo her away—he can sense the strength it possesses and hijiri knows that (loath as he is to admit it) taking it on alone would probably be a bad idea.
so he readies himself, eyeing laura firmly. if she's so damn eager to fight? then he won't force her away this time.]
Understood. [ She says it firmly, swinging that gigantic sword of hers to hold at the level of her shoulders. It's a split second before the brute charges, but then Laura's already dashing forward to meet it. ]
[well, he can't deny that she's prepared—though laura certainly isn't the only one. hijiri keeps a short distance, because he's not wielding a sword. instead, he summons yuki onna forth.
maybe freezing out the brutes will take care of this a little quicker? who knows.]
[the other thing he can't deny is that she's skilled.
though hijiri doesn't care nearly as much about properly damage, which is why he doesn't seem to even bat an eye when yuki onna's freezing attacks crack the window of one of the ticket booths.
[ For now, she's going to have to focus on not letting this brute try to smack her (or anything else) around, going into a spin and letting the sword complete the arc to knock it back. ]
[not that it matters, because she's already off fighting and there are more brutes that need his attention. he'll call out beelzebub again, since two daemons are better than one, right?]

and when he does, it's really so he can send beelzebub forth to finish up so that laura will stop. actually fighting. stop that.
(and of course, when that's through, he'll be giving her a haughty, judgmental look like the asshat he is.)]
no subject
That's the last of them, then?
no subject
[he knows there will be more, because he hasn't found the source of the issue yet. but all the same, he needs to get her out of his hair first.]
no subject
[ So yes. She regrets absolutely nothing. ]
no subject
Then be on your way, as was asked of you to start.
no subject
[ calmly. But just saying. ]
no subject
[hijiri doesn't ask, he demands. minor details.]
no subject
[ Except no, there's the sound of something crashing outside, so hold that thought. ]
no subject
[he's not even waiting for laura, hijiri is just going to immediately chase after that sound. bad news—definitely bad news.]
no subject
What in the Goddess' name is that?

Get ready.

oh well.]
no subject
[ Look, she's trying to herd the damn thing into the square, where there are less breakable things. Don't make her worry about you, Hijiri. ]
no subject
[he's not going to fuss over a little property damage, no people are getting hurt, so that's enough for him.]
no subject
[ Of course she will. For now, she's leveling another blow at the brute, holding her ground as it bellows and tries to swipe at her. ]
no subject
[he's the one in charge here, dammit!]

Although considering who her father is, she'd be rather ashamed if she couldn't do that much. ]
