staying on the branch is a little beyond mob's balance, he sways when he tries to turn, precious inu hurrying to help steady him with a low, warning whine. robby's omen does something cool, and robby has a staff that would honestly be pretty exciting to see used it. well. things weren't this.
so here's the thing, mob's powerful. scary powerful, people always say stuff to him like they think he doesn't get that. 'you could beat anyone, don't you know?' they say, or 'your powers are insane,' or a few spirits and espers who said 'what are you, a monster?' he's never understood it, because of course he knows. that's the problem, how insane they are, how monstrous. how he isn't sure there is anyone who could beat him if things went really, really wrong.
he started to come to better terms with using them. master reigen always found ways to show him how they can be used to help people, and a lot of people keep forcing him to anyway, even if he really hates that. he likes to think he was doing pretty well, he was learning to change maybe, even with setbacks.
then the trench happened. now he's here, and he's scared in a new way of what he is, what corruption could do. what his powers could do. what happens when a place is constantly trying to make him lose control.
(he's really scared, is the thing. 65%)
so all that to say he's had a hard time using his powers at all here. like a mental block, only the most basic things, fear otherwise churning low under the surface. he should have just pushed the monsters away but his hand trembled a little. he should have flown off but even climbing with his power felt like a risk. like maybe he could will the danger away by repressing it harder than he ever has.
but
but now robby is fighting these things, and robby has been so kind to him. more than that robby is just a cool person. even if he hadn't ended up being nice to mob in particular he knows karate and tries to help people and has a cute (in his opinion thank you) omen. he's smart enough to find mob, he's brave enough to just run here regardless of the danger. (70%)
that's why mob lifts his hand, even if it trembles a little. he's scared of his power but... robby with power isn't scary. it actually it a pretty good idea, he thinks.
a very longwinded way of saying enjoy a rather odd series of events, robby. mob's hand glows with a blue-purple, his hair lifts a little and suddenly robby could feel well... stronger. weirdly stronger, like his best just shot up by several percentage points. lighter, probably a bit of a twinge like static, if the coyote's teeth get too close they'll probably graze off. his omen will probably share it too, and both will glow in the blue-purple way.
which probably a good thing because even if the coyotes aren't strong they have the persistence of things that don't feel pain and don't care about the damage to their bodies. one is definitely going to try to lunge despite any hits for robby's throat.]
