( ooc. just a closed log with the starters i owe for peeps! if you'd like a custom scenario with jinwoo, feel free to send me a pm or ping me on discord so we can work something out. )
That's not what--!! [Dammit! He's already moving before she can tell him that, no, an opening was not the goal here. Still, intentional or not, surrendering an opportunity is a soundly stupid decision.
With a loud curse, Cagalli maneuvers the Akatsuki to avoid the energy beam as well, keeping an eye on Kaisel and Jinwoo to the best of her ability. That includes when she stops midair and readies her beam rifle and cannons, shooting several bright streams of firepower at the same spot on the imugi's hide. All she sees when firing ceases is a blackened scorch mark. Anything else is missed as she fires the engines once again to catch up to the duo.]
Circle back, you're too far from us!
[Her voice is stern, obviously used to giving orders that may or may not be followed anyway. Regardless, the ocular does send Jinwoo a subconscious message, words unneeded when one character can do the job just fine.]
[ The moment Cagalli's command comes through, his ocular flashes with a single symbol— simple, direct, and just a little exasperated. Seriously?
A sharp breath escapes him, something close to a chuckle despite the chaos around them. It's not the time to be amused, but hell, he kind of is. She's got a way of getting her point across, that's for sure. ]
Alright, alright. I hear you. I'm coming back.
[ —is what he says through the comms before he directs Kaisel into a sharp turn, angling away from the imugi's line of fire and bringing himself closer to her. The wyvern screeches, wings beating hard to stabilize after the maneuver, but Jinwoo keeps his movements precise. He doesn't need to make this harder on either of them. ]
So its hide is ridiculous. They weren't lying about that. You think we should give it another shot?
[ Or should they try to focus on regrouping with the rest of the Outsiders before another attempt? ]
Don't do that again, you don't know what's coming next! [Cagalli's tone remains exceedingly irritated, but a little relief does make itself known.] Let's regroup and go from there. There's no point in planning too far ahead when we're still figuring out what we're up against.
[As Jinwoo and Kaizel circle back, the Akatsuki moves to meet them but keeps enough distance to change course if needed, as his movements are sharper than before.
The imugi, however, notices his adjusted flight pattern and readies herself to intercept. A crackle of electricity snakes across her body in preparation, noticed almost too late by the pilot.]
Move!! [She all but screams at him, urgency overtaking every fiber of her being with previous grievances lost in the wind. Thrusters ignite, and the golden machine shoots forward to intercept the attack, lining up to meet the bolt of pure energy just in time to prevent it from outright frying her allies.
The area lights up as it strikes, blinding anyone looking their direction with a sudden glare of bright light accompanied by a loud snapping sound.]
