Schuldig ducks down and over and claw ends up going through his jacket to his shoulder. Better than his face, but he's still not pleased about it.]
'PLAN?'
[He's at least got from Riku now that whatever he'd been expecting, this wasn't it, but now Schuldig's unable to perform any telepathy on the young man because he's so focused on dodging this ... thing that Baldr became.]
Some fucking god of light you turned out to be, huh--!!
[But his snippy comments are cut off as he continues trying to alternate between actual teleporting and then just dodging. Baldr didn't go ayakashi - that doesn't happen to Gods, he was certain - but the net effect is the same, he's coming to realize. That's why there's so much strain on Schuldig's face. The dodges aren't actually working. Right now his reflexes are just lucky - minus the first swipe - and he's struggling. Why?
He reaches out to Sora's mind and finds a void. That's why he can't dodge - there's no preplanning involved. It's his worst nightmare. He's fighting Farfarello, that's what he's doing, goddamn.
Schuldig's still clinging to Riku's vessel form with a tight grip, until he thinks to shove him in a vest pocket. One less thing to hang onto.]
BUKI, TELL ME HOW TO STOP HIM FIRST!
[He doesn't want to release Riku - and be unable to hear him - until he's got this maniac out of his face, bare minimum. He doesn't really want to release Riku at all, just 'give him back' as a nora, but he's very much considering his options carefully. Still, surely a vessel would know how their god fights.]
