Tortue's carapace and scutes are blocking me. GRRR. Where is Demos?
Sharp. The smell is sharp. Demos' fur. Phew. That big furry bear is still alive!
[Not for long.]
System's voice has all the affect of an X-ray machine. Far more disturbing than a taunt.
Lobo interferes before I can dig a hole for everyone. [Nice try. You know he can outlast you.]
Lightning chimes in. [Just let it play out. Whatever happens.]
No flicker, no moving the needle, but I can sense that System wants to combust.
The announcer shouts, "That's a bear head. Then we get the bear! Demos is alive!"
A full-throated roar and Demos scoots out from under Tortue, keeping his head down until he clears the low threshold. Then, he roars, shaking the arena. I have Katy Perry's "Roar" stuck in my head now.
