[Johnny's gone back to Pirate and Dragoon over Bard. He shakes his head.]

Not me. But that's fine, I can take the lead 'n act as bait if needed.

I... can hide in a bush? Beacon didn't really train us much for stealth. [And with Warrior and Dancer on, he's not getting and buffs to that, either.]

If the Snow Beast is as big as the people here say it is, I don't know that a confrontation is avoidable. And it's terrorizing them, so I don't think we should just ignore it, either.

You know me. Got a few Curas up my sleeve and a quick exit strategy, but my skills focus more on combat and speed.

[Considering his equipped Jobs haven't changed in the last five years, he was stuck with Red Mage and his custom Job. Not that it was a bad combo, but it did leave something to be desired for defense... He sighs.]

I agree with Blondie. That Beast has been nothing but trouble. If we can, I'd like to take it out as well.

[Not being able to use her airship, which had been kept safe so long, hurt her a bit as a pirate but her pride wasn't so stubborn that she'd put others at risk just for a flashy entrance. She'd already burned that luck crashing her job's ship into the Ultima WEAPON. This one would be much harder to replace.

Besides, she'd be going on this run as an Assassin anyway. For personal reasons.
]

I'm in favor of going after the beast as well. It's causing problems if nothing else, but taking it out might show us a way to get to the fortress proper. The two may well be connected, and it's just as like that it's not what people think it is.

[Meanwhile, a moogle wearing a hood fluttered over to Jaune and patted him on the shoulder.] 'Don't worry, kupo. I can give you some stealth tips and some quick training if you want, kupo.' [Bonnie smiled gleefully in spite of the oversized eyepatch covering part of her face under the hood.]

[Jade gives a shrug and inclines his head, implying without words that he has no objections. While he'd rather prioritize the Archfiend, the others do have a point. In any case, it doesn't seem like they're equipped for sneaking around.]

An ambush, then? We have our bait [he nods to Johnny] and, if Saori is correct, Eagle Vision will help us keep track of the Beast's location. Getting some free hits in should be manageable.

[Reno was simply trying to stay warm as he listened to the others. While he wasn't a huge fan of Johnny being bait, he respected his partner's decision.]

I got yer back, partner. And electricity an' speed is right up my alley, yo.

[It was like this assignment was made for him. Except for the cold. Damn, damn cold. He shot a smirk toward Jade.]

Maybe Doctor Heavy-Sighs won't have to work so hard.

[He was talking out his ass, and he was sure everyone knew it. But it was Reno's way of boosting morale.]

I agree with Mary, though. An archfiend and a snow beast in the area? Seems too big to be a coincidence. I'm thinking it's a diversion.

Chances are it's meant to be a guard dog to intimate intruders. Though I highly doubt it's all just for show. I can use the clone skill to make sure we have enough eyes out on it while backing you guys up with long range attacks.

[Sure she's got those ninjutsu skills for magic damage, but she also still has Laguna's machine gun and spare throwing knives if push comes to shove.]

I have some healing items too but never hurts to grab more before we head out if you haven't already.

I don't know how much help I'll be. I'm good with air, but so the Archfiend.

[NAd he still has dancer as his other job]

[ He nodded to Bonnie with a small smile. ]I'd appreciate that, thanks. I could use all the help I can get.

[Geez what was with these people and their fancy abilities?]

It's okay, guys; I can dance and swing a sword. [ It's meant to be a joke, but damn if he doesn't feel inadequate right about now. ]

Beast it is. Goin' after that will probably draw out the Archfiend. We'll probably make enough noise to draw attention to ourselves anyway.

[He gave Reno a nod. He didn't like the idea of being bait either, but he seemed like the most equipped of the group for it right now.]

How far away are we from it now?

[Mary's frown has held strong as she thinks things over. She's glad she has all these reliable folk here though. Including Jaune.]

As much as an airship may help us in this I'll be going as Assassin. We don't know what we're up against, and a miscalculation might make us lose a ship we need later. Or worse. [Her finger slowly taps her sleeve.] Saori and I can work together to get as close as we can. Maybe flank it. Jaune, we might need you to help Johnny keep its attention if it comes to it.

[She glances at Aang and Reno, giving them a nod.] You two can do as you like, hit it hard. Two at the front, two at the sides and two at the back, with Jade calling the commands as needed. How does that sound?

(ooc: she's just basing this on the number of people in the tread but her suggested tactics are still on the table for the others who are in the other thread)

[Reno nodded.]

You got it, Boss.

Hey -- kid. [He gestured to Aang.] Get it together. He's good at air-whatever too, so what? We're still gonna get in there an' kick his ass!

I ain't takin' anyone useless with me. So if you're still here, must mean you ain't useless. So figure it out. You said somethin' about usin' air for shields, so maybe do that.
