Judging by the abilities of all the people gathered and some other things like the intensity he saw in Elidibus's eyes at the news of what they have to deal with, Angeal has decided that he doesn't need to get involved with the hunt right now. Too many cooks in the kitchen, and all that. But the thing about stuff like this is that hunting and fighting is only one part of the equation.
So he makes his way over to Annie's Bakes, and makes sure the lanterns around it are burning bright amidst all the snow. So it's easy to find, along with the simple bulletin put to rock: If you need bread, pre-made baked goods, or just raw materials, come to the bakery.
Anyone who steps into the bakery will find a rush of warm air coming out to meet them. Almost more than just warm, even. Some of that is no doubt thanks to the ovens, but Angeal's own presence can't be denied with the natural warmth of a gold dragon radiating off of him as he works hard, fast, and disciplined behind the counter.
"So whatcha need?" he asks, not looking up.
B - Hunting
With Genesis being how he is, so territorial about their little orchard that's slumbering through the winter, Angeal has no doubt they're staying right in place. So with him working at the bakery, making sure the bakery is locked down, then going to make sure his own home is locked down... He's just a little bit late to the party when it comes to hunting down things.
So after being paired up with someone new... He gives a mild smile just to break the ice before his expression falls back to something more somber and serious.
"So, been hunting since the start? How have we been doing?"
C - There's Only Room For One Fucked Up Alien Here
There's a lot of arguments that could be had on just what Jenova is, not helped by the many fucked up explanations of it that have been mangled ever since it was first found in a chunk of ice, and probably even before then. So the exact scientific definition is probably messed up, not helped by how it is a completely different thing.
...But when you ignore all that shit, it's a little bit simpler.
Jenova is greedy. Down to the cell.
And it can only handle something invasive latching onto 'itself' (Angeal, in this case) before reacting in the only way that a highly aggressive greedy space entity knows.
So for anyone who may be outside on patrol, or simply trying to get something outside, do an errand, fix perhaps a broken board... Congrats! You get to witness, hear, and very likely feel the small but fiery explosion outside of town, and the giant puff of intermingled snow and water (which is likely melted snow). Anyone who goes to investigate will find two things.
The first is a large and rather chunky golden dragon... presumably. If anyone has a traditional image of a dragon, it will be just a bit different. Multiple legs can be seen along its sides, and even its wings seem to be two different pairs with brilliant white feathers emerging from them. Hard to see the head when its bowed down the way it is. There's just Angeal's muffled cursing.
The second is a rather impeded Intellect Devour, which is impeded because it is wobbling along while missing two of its legs.
Have fun figuring out which to focus on.
