A friend of Jake’s had also used humor as a defensive mechanism. Marco didn’t only crack jokes whenever there was opportunity. Man oh man, could he complain...
In spite of the fact that it had been too close a call, getting shot at with a laughing gas bullet, he managed a partial smile towards the trio who looked like they escaped from a circus.
Kazuma and Mari just didn’t seem to be bothered by their wisecracking at all.
“If I use my enhanced speed, I could inject the antidote,” Mari offered. “I zip by, stick it in, and get back before he could do anything to me.”
“Sounds good to me,” Kazuma said.
“All I can do is help look for him,” Jake said. “This time, I’ll be much higher in the air.” He looked to Mari. “I’ll have an easier time dodging bullets.” You won’t need to worry.
“Is there a way to lead him someplace where there are less people around?” Kazuma asked Duela, Jokester, and Harlequin. “My cousin, a fire magic user, can handle her own against such a menace, but she lacks in self control. And we prefer for most people to remain unaware about our powers.”
