[Brook fusses at him when he tries to make sure that he's safe, unharmed, that he hasn't accidentally impaled him, and Onni tolerates it, just as he would from Lalli, who would absolutely do the same thing. It means he's safe, if he's still got the energy and will to fight back like that, swatting at Onni's hands as if they were annoying flies.
It's a relief.
Brook might not be built to protect, but Onni certainly is, and when those claws come at his face, Onni lifts an arm and pushes them away, driving his spear home. At that same moment, Brook bounces off the wall and kicks at the back of the ghost, driving its head onto Onni's spear until he can see the end of it poking out of the back of the thing's head. The ghost sags and sinks back into the shadows, and Onni is left standing there breathing heavily, staring at Brook.]
I hate these things.
[A pause, and he puts his spear up, pale eyes scanning the surroundings to make sure there's no more ghosts around, ready to pounce. But there's nothing, not yet, just the sounds of more of them in the distance, in the other room, whisper-screaming obscenities and threats. Onni looks back at Brook after a moment.]
I thought I hated the automatons. I hate these more. Are you alright?
