If it's alright with you, I think I'm going to use a re-imagined version of a canon marvel character from another RP I was in that seems to have died.

Lol. You don't have to kill her to win, just fyi. And you've got the better ranged attacks by far. You can bring a sword too, if you want though.

And just as a disclaimer, my characters tend to have really sarcastic and sometimes derogatory inner monologues. Don't take any of it personally, as it's completely an IC opinion and has no bearing on my actual opinion of your posts.

I actually liked the pirouette bit. Lol.

Just a heads up, you can't reload a revolver silently. Or any gun for that matter... Unless you have sound absorbing powers at least.

My point being that just because you say something is silent, doesn't mean it will be. The casing will always scrape against the chamber, the cylinder will always have a faint click as it spins, and the hammer will always click when it cocks back. That's just the mechanics of guns. So while it might be inaudible for a normal human, someone like X-23 with superhuman senses would be able to hear it.

I say all this because she's going to in my next post, and I wanted to explain why and how so you don't think I'm just ignoring what you wrote to gain an advantage. Since Aureo doesn't have any sound manipulating powers, I have to assume that the normal acoustic properties of revolver mechanics still apply in this scenario.

Basically, it's the same as if I wrote that she lifted a truck and threw it at him. She's nowhere near that strong, so you'd be well within your rights to say the truck was a tonka toy that she grabbed off the street, and respond accordingly.

Yeah. I try to avoid absolute statements like that in my own posts, that way it leaves room for my opponent to respond the way their characters normally would, without having to ignore parts of what I wrote.

As an example, look back at when Aureo dove behind the concrete barrier. I used the barrier itself and a comparison with modern day tank armor to show how much damage the bullet was capable of, instead of saying how much damage it should cause if it hit Aureo, since the calling of that damage is up to you (though my personal estimate is that it would take two or three hits at least for a bullet to reach any sensitive parts, since his shell is quite a bit more durable than tank armor).

yeah it prolly would have backed him up but it would take a couple of hits to get to the really vital spots

Can you add an attack to the end of that post? Otherwise I don't know what I should be responding to. Is he swinging he sword straight down trying to cut her in half vertically? Is it a left to right slash? A right to left slash? Where is it aimed? Her head? Her neck? Her stomach? Is he just ignoring the sword altogether and trying to tackle her?

If you don't specify an attack, your opponent can't respond effectively and they're left with having to make something up and hope for the best (which can also put you at a disadvantage).
