(I'll post an action for Amandine to help hurry things along.)<br/><br/>It seems like it might be working... they are the tiniest bit put off, depressed and worried by the ray and intimidation tactics, and then Mihoko gets the attention of one of them, holding its gaze. It doesn't seem to notice, even as its pal tries to get its attention...<br/><br/>And then Amandine rushes in to clothesline it, doing something most unprincessly with a flying lariat.<br/><br/>(Athletics. Roll of... 6, wow. 6=2 = 12. So the team gets 6+9+2+12 = 29. You guys win! One of them takes 29/3 (round to nearest, so 10) stress.)<br/><br/>It flies into the air, doing a 360 and lands on its face. The critter then panics, and starts to scuttle away, trying to escape.<br/><br/>(6x3 using Athletics, so 18 to escape!)<br/><br/>The other is still distracted, but it decides to try to give Mihoko a very friendly kiss...<br/><br/>(4x1 using Affection, so 4 to attack)<br/><br/>New turn, and they're not working together this time so you guys will have a much easier time.
