"I can take care of-" he starts to protest, but when he's hit with a nasty Maragidyne from Loki, causing him to stagger, he has to concede. He's been doing an admirable job hiding it, but he didn't end up trapped in that pod for no reason. There's no way he would've gone willingly... he's already lost a lot of stamina.

And then everyone continues speaking, and he- turns away, a scowl on his face. He looks extremely troubled, conflicted, but in the end-

"Fine," he allows, and steps back, letting everyone else do the fighting for him.

His Shadows, for their part, look furious, but the continuous stream of attacks hasn't left them unscathed. Loki is starting to sag, while Robin twitches, metallic joints sparking a little- until Crow's Myriad Arrows crits, knocking the mechanical superhero down. Loki manages to keep standing, but when Phoenix' Rebellion Blade comes crashing into Robin also, he cries out.

"No-!"

Robin's form changes once more, leaving the princely human on the floor- defeated. Loki roars, furiously preparing to send out a Megidolaon, but then, Knight's Kougaon sends him flying. He doesn't transform back to his humanoid form quite yet, but he's lying prone, knocked down by his weakness to light.

"Disgusting humans-! How much longer will you toy with me?" it growls, voice angry and deep, but it struggles to get back up.

Now's their chance for an all out attack!
