[ Flynn spares a moment to be absurdly grateful for the existence of Yuri Lowell and everything that comes with him. He couldn't do this without Yuri, and this is a terrifying thing full of blood and the possibility of death, again. ]
One of us needs to stay alive to get the other one out of here, at the very least. If we come back in here—
[ Flynn isn't going to go there. Instead, he tugs Yuri close, listening to the footsteps get closer and closer, and kisses him quick and firm and fierce. When he draws back he's smiling. ]
Hold me up when I collapse? I'll come back to myself in a moment.
[ He doesn't give Yuri a chance to protest, because they're getting closer. He knows Yuri won't leave him behind to die, will do his best to get them both out of here, and that means he can put everything he has into this spell. The ground beneath him lights up as he presses his hands together, drawing up all the remaining energy in his body, biting his tongue again to make blood flow. They're getting closer, and Flynn has to time this right to hit as many of them as he can. ]
Cover me—
[ He bites out as they get closer still, all hissing voices and echoing footsteps. Blood drips from somewhere else beside Flynn, and the circle flares brighter. ]
Power from beyond the veil—banish them!
[ Flynn doesn't even need to say the actual name of the spell before light fills the area, blinding and sharp and white, blasting through the zealots just as they round the corner toward Flynn and Yuri's bloody hiding place. ]
