[Action] shhh i am not doubleposting

[Cloud is lying on a bench in the central plaza, rather late at night. He could be sleeping, but sleeping people usually don't bleed all over creation or have a five-foot ridiculous-looking broadsword sticking out of their side. Of course, that's kind of hard to tell in the darkness, sooo...]

[[ooc: Gonna go with the first person who responds (if there are multiple commenters) just so there's no time discrepancies. Anybody after that is free to idk see him in the clinic or however you'd like to work it, I'm cool with whatever.]]

[Cloud closes his eyes.

Damn it, Kadaj.

He opens them and stares down at the blankets as he speaks in the flattest tone possible.]

Yazoo is largely long-range, uses a gun called Velvet Nightmare that doubles as a short sword. When I fought with him though, he was moving...strange. He purposefully let me get a hit in to get in close-range. And I don't know how, but his bullets have magic properties now. [He pauses to take a deep breath, then continues.]

I wouldn't know about Kadaj. If he's got materia or if he's done any of that spirit stuff, then he can. It'd be safe to assume they're capable of some of it anyway. As for any weaknesses he might have...nothing really obvious. Best you can do is just disarm him and work from there, since as far as I know he doesn't know any hand-to-hand off the top of his head.

[No physical weaknesses. That's not good news. Given the sort of people here in Luceti, it's not a surprise. It's still unfortunate that there was no easy way to bring them down, but since when have things ever been easy since he joined the Justice League? Hopefully ridding them both of their weapons would be enough.]

Materia. How is it used for spellcasting? Does it require concentration and focus to cast with?

[He shifts uncomfortably and puts a hand to his side.] Not so much for them, for some reason. Usually it does, but they don't seem to have to think about it at all.

Do you know of any countermeasures to their magic? Nullification or just making it weaker?

Nothing available here. Not anything I know about, anyway. [Maybe if someone had an MBarrier materia or something...]

[No such luck, it seems. Guess it'll just take caution.]

Any other information you believe is relevant to their pacification?

...Kadaj is probably the one who'd be more likely to listen to reason, but...not at this point. Yazoo is just a psychopath; it's pointless to talk to him.

Don't mention Sephiroth or Jenova to either of them unless you think putting them into a frenzy would be for your benefit; they're sore subjects.

[He nods.]

Understood. This cannot continue. They will be brought down. We'll see to that.

...I hope your recovery is a swift one.

[Thank God he doesn't have to do it this time. He's getting sick of fighting them.]

Thanks.

[And with that, Batman will turn and leave as quietly as he arrived, seemingly disappearing once he leaves Cloud's room.]
