Hm? [ figaro turns to his companion, belatedly realizing what he'd just done. ah, crap. ] Oh, yes. I almost got carried away.

[ the abyss mage staggers on its feet, cursing in a high-pitched voice that it's because of humans like figaro that the Order wishes to annihilate their kind. "are you even human in the first place?! it seethes.

its insults have yet to make a dent in figaro's smile, however. if anything he's just amused, like he's heard this before. ]

You sure have tallied up a whole bunch of mistakes here. Assuming that I'm human is one of them. And even then, I'll always choose to protect humanity from things like you.

[ and with that, he drops the last block of ice onto the mage, effectively knocking it out. figaro dusts off his hands and stashes them to his pocket, looking over to sandalphon once more. ]

...Sorry you had to see it. [ he sounds a little apologetic, at least. ]
