NIKI
Sea birds aren't a problem that Niki regularly encounters in the Greatwood, and so even their calls are enough to have him instinctively flinching down (and unintentionally right against Sunjata, since he's also cowering but for a different reason). He doesn't expect the blatant theft of something that isn't at all edible or interesting for hels either, the boy left blinking out at the ruined bit of perimeter with mild shock on his face.
"Are... are they always like this?" he asks, watching the hels taunt and swoop away in general. "Is there a way to... to bribe them, perhaps?"
Ronin is way ahead of him, alas, but in lieu of bribery, the Knight opts for straight up intimidation. All but marching off down the beach, draconic wings spreading from his shoulders, he sends out a volley of firebolts in an attempt to scatter the creatures. If that fails, a full shift might be necessary.
Elsewhere, with a much friendlier sized crab in his pocket, Mateo is naturally aghast at the organised crustacean construction that seems to be going on in Flora's livingroom-to-be. Knowing better than to get in the way of Spice doing her thing, he opts instead to find a big bit of driftwood to brandish, hoping to help spook the crabs away.
Niki suggests bribing the hels to leave them be. Ronin ignores him and goes straight for threats and intimidation.
Mateo grabs some driftwood to brandish at the crabs to try and scare them off!

my body's on the line now, I can't fight this time now
I can feel the light shine on my face
I can feel the light shine on my face
