[ ah, this is bad. it doesn't feel like a fight he can easily win. and since there's nothing to gain from staying here and fighting, maybe he should leave.
hierophant's never been built for raw strength, its entire arsenal of abilities built around long-range attacks, and it struggles to hold tight even just through the first round of struggling. kakyoin can feel his joints creak as the strain transmits through his stand, and though he turns and starts running to put some distance between them, it's just a little late.
yusuke bites down hard enough to tear through the tendril's harder shell, and kakyoin flinches as a jagged cut opens across the back of his hand. and once one section of hierophant's length snaps, the rest of it buckles much more easily. with yusuke's second round of struggling, those green tendrils strain, then snap apart like frayed ropes.
corresponding injuries open up all across kakyoin's torso, seeping dots of red through the fabric of his clothes. it's enough to make him stumble, and kakyoin hisses from the pain. he keeps running for now, but the torn ribbons of hierophant's tendrils flicker, then vanish from around where yusuke is. ]
