"Not your kind of revelry? Oh well, we can only hope things'll heat up soon then right?" Jun was part joking, part serious. He did want to see what would happen if the police just stormed in here full force. The chaos that would ensue would surely be a sight to behold. He was somewhat confident he'd be able to slip away. But there was still a fair chance of getting caught which would surely put a damper on an otherwise fine day so far. Not to mention the tragedy if Dust Devils were to meet their end so soon.
Jun looked around the room, taking a gauge on the situation. So far things were progressing smoothly. "Ah, perhaps we should take these out." Jun mused aloud as he spotted the cameras that dotted the walls and ceilings. "Be right back dear, hold the fort while I'm gone."
The tendrils pulled and dragged and swung their way across the room with Jun firmly embedded in the center of the mass, his head covered by a fleshy helmet of shifting eyes and mouths. As he passed each camera he left a glob of biomass sticking to the lens in order to block the view. Perhaps Sunaho would want them operational at a later time but for now there was no reason to give the police any unnecessary information. It was especially important to hide the shapeshifting Niso for the ruse to be effective.
With every lens covered and thus prevented from recording his most stunning visage, Jun landed back besides Rei. "Honey, I'm home." He fashioned for himself a throne of flesh. Upon which he unceremoniously splayed himself with one leg dangling off an armrest, right between spikes of bone. An eye on the throne's backrest observed the silver haired the youth dig an arm into his forearm and pull out a thick burrito wrap and a bottle of soda from the hammer space within.
"My this does make a guy hungry. Oh did you want one?" A tendril dug back into the physics defying forearm and pulled out another burrito and soda, dangling it in front of the towering red behemoth. "I'd give you a menu but truth be told I've half forgotten what I stuck in there. It's a veritable box of chocolates and I do love me some chocolate." Jun brought his burrito up to his flesh mask where a misshapen, misplaced mouth took a sizeable chunk out of it. The bite traveling through the mask and into Jun's waiting mouth.

Rei shrugged slightly at the small girl "Ain't much for me to do right now, which makes it boring" she said, keeping an eye on the hostages and an ear on whatever was going on outside. She barely acknowledged Eldritch's departure, instead wandering over to the hostages for a few moments, yellow irises glinting out from behind her mask as she scanned them for a few moments before reaching out and picking up a slender young businessman with one hand. She yanked him up and over her shoulder, ignoring his protests as she walked slowly back to her position, making sure to put extra effort into stomping so that her every footstep cracked the ground.
"Shut up and do what I say, and you won't get hurt" she growled to him as she once again took a guard position, this time with a meat shield should she need to... discourage... police intervention. Her grip on the man was strong enough to ensure he wouldn't try and escape, but not so hard as to leave injuries. It was at this point Eldritch returned and conjured up that disturbing chair again, sprawling out next to her and generally hamming the whole thing up. Rei couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the sudden appearance of snacks however, mildly disturbed by the fact they had been pulled from Eldritch's forearm of all places.
The offer of food was equally surprising, considering what she had seen of the little girl's personality, and she couldn't help but growl out a laugh, a sound that made the man sprawled over her shoulder tense up in momentary fear. "Maybe later chibi-san, my hands are full right now, and I haven't nearly worked up an appetite yet," she replied, raising her kanabo in one hand and gesturing with the hand holding her hostage. "I'd call you creepy if I didn't think you'd take it as a compliment," she added, only half paying attention to her current teammate. Surely the police would be here soon? They certainly couldn't be intending on allowing this situation to go on for too much longer.
Casually, she tapped her kanabo against the floor, the wooden weapon denting the ground with every tap. After all, the boss had said to keep people scared, and casual shows of strength often ensured meekness from those who were too weak to stand up for themselves. Such as the people in this building.
Still, part of her couldn't wait for things to pick up.

Between the mixture of pure strength, carefully planning, and plain out body horror and trickery. Things would have eventually come to the stand still where those still alive mainly civilians within the walls would be secured. Many likely traumatized from what they'd seen as the day to day of the job. It was hard to say who those held as hostages would be more scared of. The knife wielding twins or the large beast of strength that was like a hulk of mass and might before them. Or the body horror of the strange destruction of one crazed being or the monster mass of the bloody mass of the other. If anything the broken minds and spirits of those remained had very little if any fight in their bones. Scared into submission where at such a point as this they would simply desire to live to see tomorrow and offer nearly unquestioned compliance at present.
There were still police outside behind their barricades and taped off roads. But they had retreated for now seemingly unwilling to risk the lives of the hostages as the situation had went from bad to worse for the powers that be outside. Screams were not just whimpers within and one wrong move now would not only lead to more bloodshed but also a political nightmare as news stations would soon be in droves behind the police lines along with the civilians with lines and lines of phones recording looking for anything to post to either get views of showing villains or the police making any sort of mistakes. As much as boys in blue may have detested it with gritting teeth and angered breath. It was clear that at least for the present... those in the building were those in control and those with the power in the present situation.
Of course the time dealing with the chaos that be as well as trying to set up a barricade under such trying and rough conditions had experienced trouble from the outside of the situation as well as the inside making it several times harder to gain control. Not only had the power within the building taken a strong control but it seemed that in the confusion and before the outside security could take control several groups of forces of the dust devils had made their way into the building. As the news tried to begin taking notice as well it was clear that this was a pr nightmare for the building as well as the police. But the damage had already been done... the night would show how much more danger was yet to come as well.

Matsuda waited patiently and courteously as Niso finished changing into his new, more convenient form. This would be an invaluable asset for deterrence, or so he hoped. Keeping some non-participants inside, particularly wealthy ones, would make law enforcement think twice about invading this cramped space. Crowd dispersion tactics would be quite dangerous in this small area, after all, and Matsuda knew well enough that even if they did try to break in, the Dust Devils' stance would only be proven correct. Not only that, but by feigning the availability of negotiation, he would be able to quite effectively waste the time of those who might spoil their fun. Illegality was their pursuit, but exploiting legality was a perfectly fine weapon to use.
As Niso finished transforming, Matsuda rounded him up with the rest of those who hadn't been able to flee the scene. Some were ziptied, the rest knew better than to fight back. Although they were hostages, keeping them safe was rather important, to maintain image and keep Heroes off their ass. "A real captive audience... I hope you all enjoy the show! Don't worry, I've no intention to hurt anyone. You're just here to make the Japanese Government think twice about hurting some of their loyal donors and co-conspirators." The man declared, grinning widely beneath his mask. Niso would be a good figurehead to use in negotiations, but that was for when that time arose.
Meanwhile, Sunaho was glad to finally have the place under her control, submitting to their overwhelming force and, in time, numbers. As several groups of Dust Devils, bringing their audience in tow, forced their way into the building with civilians who had not participated in the takeover, things only got more in their favor. The building was in their control, and any effort to force their way in would be dangerous for both police and the inhabitants. They were playing a political game right now, trying to disincentivize them from a number of angles, which would be left up to Matsuda and the rest of the Dust Devils. As although she was the leader, Sunaho had her own part to play right now. As the crowds formed in the Tokyo Stock Exchange, and equipment was set up, the green-haired woman took her place on a help desk amidst all the machines, climbing atop of it as the crowd looked on in awe and anticipation.
"Alright. Let's get this shit started."
