[Also, focus on the fucking fight. Now Jiro's given away his position and Akira has too, so he sprints off in a random direction. Mara, meanwhile, is slowly turning around and pointing the business end of his spiky death chariot at Minato.]
[For his part, Minato's clothing is now on fire, but he isn't much worse for wear because of it; it just means he's constantly surrounded in a halo of flame, which only makes him look creepier. Between the two, Jiro presents more of a threat (that Mara is a fake and can do little to him, for all the posturing), so he draws Messiah near again and casts Mapsiodyne. Might as well whack the other one.]
