"Hey, you better watch your backs then- TRUSTY, YA' DERPY HONCHKROW, COME BACK!"
Yup, it wing-attacks the beetle to knock it back at the astronauts, angrily cawing at those four.
"Can't really influence them in this matter, they... just hate the beetle." (In case you need a roll, Trusty rolled a 10)

 

[Weakest Wormwood Enjoyer]

The green one throws a chakram at the beetle which creates a gust of wind that knocks it out of the air, in Cofagrigus's direction.

(3 )
It hits him and cuts off one of his ghost hands. He can make another, of course, but it still hurt like hell.
"Oh- Cof! You alright?"
William is making sure Cofagrigus is fine.


Dusclops, meanwhile, brings his single eye to stare into the purple ones soul, his hands continuing to move.

"Hey, you better watch your backs then- TRUSTY, YA' DERPY HONCHKROW, COME BACK!"
Yup, it wing-attacks the beetle to knock it back at the astronauts, angrily cawing at those four.

The blue astronaut recovers and parries the beetle back with the side of his blade, but the alien shakes the rattle again and the beetle launches itself back at him, hard. This knocks the blue one over, and the green one throws a wind chakram at the Honchkrow in retaliation.

Dusclops, meanwhile, brings his single eye to stare into the purple ones soul, his hands continuing to move.

It's... unclear what exactly Dusclops is staring at, but it seems to be having effect nonetheless.

(8) The birb gives off a sharp screech of pain, angering Garry.
"Oi, you clearly have a death wish then. Alright, I can grant you one."
Garry himself decides to get into a favourable position to stab the one that hurt his birb. And strikes the green with a knife.
"Assurance, Trusty. Give them the world of pain!"
(Argh, nat 20 for Garry's attack, can't reduce it with a curse, with nat 1 for Honchie)
However, the bird suddenly falls down, as it turns out the pain for it is a bit too much to attack, and even aggravates its own injury a bit more.

 

[Ivyss]

Essentia would turn to her fire form and fly at one of the space suit guys (I admittedly am not quite sure what each color is doing, but if there's one that's not currently occupied with something, that's who she'd be going for.), returning to material form before possibly hitting. (8)

(12) The green one is stabbed directly in the torso, a few sparks fly out as they shove Garry back (20).

That would be the red one (14) who manages to duck before getting hit.
They turn around and raise their pistol to shoot the phoenix, but are immediately interrupted by the beetle bonking into their head from behind.
After recovering, hoping to take the beetle out of action, they turn towards the alien creature and shoot at it.
The alien is hit in the leg and stumbles over.

Meanwhile the blue one has gotten up and uses this as a chance to hit Trusty with the shock sword (13).

 

[Weakest Wormwood Enjoyer]

Dusclops gives the purple one a single command.

"Protect them." (Put in quotation for sake of denoting. He isn't actually saying anything.)

Garry Eldwings

They don't suffer as much from the sparks as the Honchkrow did from the charkam, but they do flinch instead as they get shoved. They, however, attempt to get their footing back and twist the knife within' the astronaut's body to hopefully kill this one. (11 (13, -1 from curse, -1 from flinching))

(9) The Honchkrow is caught by surprise before they can Protect itself, shrieking again from the pain. They attempt to pay back as they whirl their only healthy wing around like a blade... but is unable to do anything as the injured wing is too much. (2)
Seeing the bird get injured again without them being able to help much, Garry glares at blue one. "Let the green be an example of what I'll do to you after I'm done with them. No one touches my birds! Do you hear it? NO ONE! Maybe except if they're happy." He's visibly angry, but has no firearms.

<...two shards for Trusty..>

After recovering, hoping to take the beetle out of action, they turn towards the alien creature and shoot at it.
The alien is hit in the leg and stumbles over.

<..one for the alien?>
Syni glances at her shard count, another 3 shards breaking off from her mane to be regenerated.
<...ah. Juust at the couple minute mark. 8 shards in total.>
<Ok...let's try this.>

A couple of green shards whistle out into the field from where Syni is taking cover behind the tree. One is aimed at the alien to, two are aimed at Trusty. Though, as each heal about as much as a flesh wound of a sword slash each, getting less effective individually the more badly wounded the individual is, it's unlikely Trusty will be fully healed at this rate.

 

[Incendiary]

XR-705 gives themself a little distance, and fires their sidearm at the green astronaut (18) before switching their target to the red one and firing again (16)

(13) The knife is twisted but it... doesn't seem to do much?

That helps the alien, especially since it has no bullet stuck in its body to remove, because explosion.

(3) The green one is shot directly in the helmet, piercing straight through their visor.
However they appear to still be moving, though a little dazed.
They back away a bit and then activate a jetpack on their suit, attempting to launch themselves away to safety.

(16) The red one somehow manages to perfectly shoot the projectiles out of the air with their own.

"Green is down... Do not give up, comrades!"
The blue astronaut, seeing as the Honchkrow has probably had enough, then swings his sword in the direction of the unmoving Dusclops, which shoots out a small electric bolt (12).

Purple isn't sure what to do.

The Honchkrow, that is being healed attempts to takeup and finish the green one with a Pursuit (3 (11, -8 (grounded, recent injuries)). However, they're still unable to actually take up. Instead, they start retreating towards Syni by hopping. Possibly to give them some sign of appreciation.

And Garry himself curses at the loss of the perfectly good weapon, and decides to see if the chakaram is dropped on the ground. Should it be dropped, they'd use that for a beheading attempt on blue. Otherwise they'd attempt to grab the blue to choke them. (4 for search (5, -1 from curse), then either 11 or 10 for combat (12, -1 from curse, possibly -1 from being disarmed))
"If you're looking for staying alive, you better run away." They then speak towards Purple, seeing how they didn't act at all.

(4) The green astronaut's jetpack seems to falter for a moment as the knife falls out from their body, but they do manage to flee.

The chakram would indeed be on the ground, but after being swung, (19) the blue astronaut catches it on the tip of his katana, twirling it around.
He flicks off the wind chakram in XR-705's direction (16).

"If you're looking for staying alive, you better run away." They then speak towards Purple, seeing how they didn't act at all.

The purple astronaut pulls out a giant mallet in response. There doesn't seem to be anything special about it.
They don't move though.

[Edit in response to me missing an attack ]
(14)
The eye of  Sauron Dusclops sees all, and he just. Takes a few steps to the side.

Dusclops is trying his hardest to tell Purple to fight the other astronauts, but doesn't seem to realize they need to understand his commands to follow them. So to the outside perspective he's just angrily stating "Dusclops" on loop.

Trusty playfully pecks Syni once, cawing pretty happily in an 'unspoken' thanks for the help, whereas Garry, seeing his own attempt at attacking blue be foiled, sighs and looks at the red for a moment. They plan to do some sort of a stab, and so they pick up their knife, and attempt his very best to slit the red's throat, if not distract the gunner. (8 (9, -1 from you know what))

 

[Incendiary]

(19) XR-705 dodges with a quick dash, before firing at the blue astronaut in retaliation. (15)

 

[Ivyss]

Essentia would turn and start flying towards red again, again changing to fireform, this time also significantly increasing its size as she flies. (17)

(2) That works, the red one's throat is in fact slit and their body twitches and sparks.

Essentia would turn and start flying towards red again, again changing to fireform, this time also significantly increasing its size as she flies. (17)

(15) This also works, though doesn't have as much of an effect.

Apparently still conscious, the red astronaut attempts to jetpack away as well--

--before somehow, the purple astronaut understands the instructions and whacks the red one over the head with the hammer, which causes them to kind of crumple to the ground.
Then the purple astronaut is also knocked to the ground, by the pesky beetle which seems to fly out of nowhere as the recovered fang-jaw continues to shake the rattle.

(19) XR-705 dodges with a quick dash, before firing at the blue astronaut in retaliation. (15)

(20) He deftly swings his katana to block flawlessly, before turning to his other two squad members.
"What a disaster..."
He swings his electric katana at Garry, less in an attempt to hit him and more in an attempt to get him out of the way (2), which also fires a spark at Essentia (1) that fizzles out quickly.

However, the katana still grazes the trainer's arm as they disastrously dodge in the way. It draws some blood, but ends up making him absolutely do some ing headstab with a knife (What are the odds of another nat-20? Because I got another. 20, cannot be affected by curse)
"Grrh... disaster indeed, for you. Good night anyway, six feet under, you bird-hurting coward."

 

[AVARUS ODIUM]

Daice has just been blankly staring this entire time.

He calmly steps towards the purple astronaut, shining his flashlight down them to assess them.

And almost as if given a blessing by the gods. He reaches with his revolver into his coat pocket, pulling it out.. the revolver now a good 10 times larger, but only in the barrel and cylinder.

He then aims it down at them and fires, the ground rumbling as the bullet, probably the size of cannonball, is fired at the astronaut's head.

Whatever is left would then catch on fire after a few seconds.

He then puts the revolver into his pocket and draws it out, normal size again.

He goes back to watching.
