I looked up Krokodil but kept to "tamer" case images of it. Because I'm kind of a wimp when it comes to things like that, I guess.
...and I'm really hoping Lyco doesn't have to meet Satoshi - too many anti-dragon things in that arsenal.
Fleeing is a perfectly reasonable option when confronted with such weapons or abilities. No shame in running away. Wounded pride heals better than a mortal wound, after all.

While a reasonable reaction by a "knight" to a dragon walking around is to think MUST SLAY, I would like to request that notion be...second-guessed.

Whilst Toshi could probably kill Lycodrake pretty easily, I don't think he has any particular issue with dragons. He himself is part-dragon, and he knows and trusts Medusa, so he's kind-of used to monsters....

But he's human-shaped - as is Medusa, so...there's no set precedent for his response to a non-humanoid being. As far as I know.

No, true, but I think he is a reasonable-enough person not to judge Lycodrake solely on the fact that he looks like a dragon.

Hopefully, at least.

Satoshi isn't violent, he doesn't draw his sword unless he absolutely has to. If your dragon bro doesn't try to go a murdering then he'll be fine Lyco. Satoshi is a protector by nature.

Again, so you tell us. He was definitely willing enough to kill Archer for just trying to protect Hakuno. And the fact that it was a bluff doesn't really make it better. Just because they aren't going to be threats that are going to not be backed up doesn't make them any worse.

Erm, what?

If it was a bluff, then he wasn't willing to kill Archer at that point, by definition. The fact that making the threat in that manner was somewhat of a dick move doesn't make the statement Lantz just made wrong, because he wasn't defending the threat, or even mentioning it.

That was a bluff, I have said as much repeatedly here and Satoshi explained as much in game. I won't repeat it again. He could no more kill Archer then he could end his own life, it's simply not possible.

That doesn't mean that it isn't a dick move nonetheless. After all, you don't necessarily know that it's a bluff. Plus throwing around threats hardly makes one brave or heroic or strong. It just means they try to solve everything by throwing their weight around and expecting their reputation to do the rest.

The Team Krokodil grunts and admins are likely either going to gain broken bones or one less life to live.
If Satoshi sees that as murder, then... :/

Well he might go batman on his op lyco, assuming he actually finds out about it.

Alice you would have a point, if Satoshi didn't admit that the bluff was a mistake motivated by emotion and tried to solve every problem the same way. To date he tried once.

Wait, so Toshi will respond to someone killing with justification by attacking the person who did so? Because I'm pretty damn sure my Rider will have killed people before....

I...don't have much to say to that, other than "going batman" is not helpful for fellow RPers. :/

So I was correct in the first place. If Archer had chosen to try and kill MoS Shirou to protect Hakuno, then Satoshi would have tried and killed Archer in turn. That invalidates what you (lantz) said about it being a bluff.

Also, Satoshi stops people from hurting or killing even bad guys who are trying to hurt people huh? Some kind, caring hero. Clearly, the bad guys have more value.
