You joke, but it'd be just like him to show up like that if you dare speak his name. Plus 'Rats' sound more derogatory than 'Angels'.
[Steinbeck still had a hint of humor too, at least?
Still Steinbeck looked to Rider and called out something else.]
Pin him down, Rider, but don't kill him. We could use them.
[Rider gave a little salute before returning to the fight. It was a fight Bedivere was steadily losing, too. He was better suited for quick bursts of action, and as the fight went on, weight of his arm and armor dragged him down. Heroic Spirits didn't get tired, exactly, but he was losing energy. And since he didn't want to kill Rider yet, not until Dazai gave him the command (or he had no choice but to kill), he was stuck.
After a firm strike, Bedivere backed up a couple steps, and called out to Dazai:]
Master?
[He didn't want to get caught and pinned, but he also wouldn't move to kill without the word from Dazai.]
