As Talbot prepares to kill you about as nonchalantly as someone else would do the dishes, you can’t help but feel your old friend <span class="mu-r">ANGER</span> spread through your slowly-asphyxiating body! <span class="mu-i">This</span> asshole, you think to yourself, this guy right here! It’d be <span class="mu-i">so</span> easy to blow his side into ash from here–so easy that it <span class="mu-i">hurts!</span>
No, wait, that’s just the strangulation. And the electricity. Wait, that second one’s fizzling out a bit! Yay?
Still, that weak spot’s so damn obvious you almost take it! Talbot puts on a big show and all, but if you hit him somewhere unarmored? Hoo, boy!
What you’re trying to say is: at the end of the day he’s really not that strong at all–he’s just <span class="mu-i">stupid!</span> So very, very <span class="mu-i">stupid</span>...
… and you’d be kidding yourself if you didn’t like that about the big oaf.
So when Lady Luck presents an easy way out, you ignore it.
“Oh… great…” Pants Ly as he too starts to lose sensation in his extremities, “You musta’... lost yer… last brain cell…”
Leaning towards Talbot’s melted metal face with your remaining strength, you plant the most tender kiss you can plant on someone when you’re halfway between fainting and dying of oxygen deprivation!
Then nothing.
When it becomes apparent that you aren’t dead… <span class="mu-i">yet</span>, you take your chance when you feel the tentacle around your neck slacken just enough to give you a breath! Sending your hand spelunking, it returns from its voyage to the center of your pocket with your <span class="mu-g">MAGIC PRISM–</span> the one that seems to love slurping up magic!
Smashing it into his unarmored side with reckless abandon, your eyes light up (along with everything else in a nearby radius) as the already-filled prism collides with his body and <span class="mu-s">EXPLODES</span> with energy! Before you can regret whatever you just did, something hits ‘<span class="mu-i">pause</span>’ on your senses as you and everyone around are enveloped in a flash of eerie, pulsing light!
