Bad, bad, bad, bad.
Taylor is very concerned about bathrooms all of a sudden. Wait, what do you mean this story isn’t written in Norwegian?
Jokes aside, Burnscar doing this really is terrible news.
Burnscar stood with Mannequin just behind her, sporting a red shirt and black jeans, cigarette burns running down her cheeks, and a dead look in her eyes.
Hm. Looks like Taylor is noticing more of Burnscar’s lack of true happiness among the Nine. If she can put things together, she might be able to tattletale this situation.
Bitch, Grue, Sirius, Bastard and I stood a dozen feet away, walls of flame like bonfires barring our escape routes to the rear or sides.
The arena has been defined.
Droplets of rain fell all around us, making ripples on the inch-high water that flooded the street. The air was thick with the smell of smoke.
Man, even when they’re up against a fire-based enemy, there’s just no avoiding the water. Although maybe that’s a good thing here.
We’d at least had time to mentally prepare for the idea of facing Mannequin. My strategy had been last-minute, but I’d been in the right frame of mind to fight a tinker, to anticipate ambush and tackle someone with decent offensive abilities, strong defenses and a crapton of tricks up his sleeve.
But now, she’s in the frame of mind to fight a tinker but up against a blaster/mover, all while hurt from the fight against Mannequin.
Burnscar had flipped things on us; she was in a totally different ballpark from Mannequin.
A ballpark is also known as a court, and
If I had to guess, her offensive capabilities were top-notch, even if they didn’t break the scales like some other members of the Nine.
Sounds about right based on what we saw in her introduction.
I couldn’t even guess where she fit on the spectrum of defensive ability, but she’d been with the Nine for a little while and she was still alive, so that was some indication.
Imp might have something to say about that. Her own power doesn’t seem to defend her much except against fire, but Bonesaw’s can.
And utility? She had every trick a pyrokinetic like Lung had at his disposal and she could teleport through flames as well, opening up a mess of tricks and avenues of attack.
I really liked the fireball teleport she did in Jack’s Interlude, that was a cool trick.
