At least my character mixes things up.
"Ha! I blocked you!"
"Ok, then I'm going to spin around, slash at you again, and when you inevitably block it, I'm going to use my momentum to continue forward and punch you in the jaw! Therefore opening you up to a quick stab with my sword!"
*made that entire maneuver on the spot*
Well you just keep up the good work then, ZF. I'll leave the swordplay in your hands. >_>
Uh....
If you're looking to expand my moveset for later stories, you could throw in some combinations with that water ring I still possess.
Just another friendly suggestion from me...
Also, ZF was actually reading the story too?
Well now that you mention it, I was starting to run dry on the crystal techniques. Maybe I'll do a little studying on how crystal reacts to water and work with that.
And I guess she was. Though I wasn't quite aware of it.
