So tired...

Sold so many Pokemon plushies...

Palms weak, knees heavy...
@Sickle-cellI would've altered some of Hope's response in order to accommodate for the new posts. Her action was a rough and shouldn't have been replied to so swiftly. : / Not a problem now, but your post won't fit in once I post... which will be on Sunday. I have a full day of work tomorrow, and I'll only get 5 hours of sleep if I head off now...

Mainly because Alain is now making (technically) an attack on Hope, and she'd easily pick up on the fact it's coming from him. (Meaning she might leave differently.)

Also Lucas's request is suddenly an important change in pace, and his character would be a new intrigue.

Sorry for delaying everyone... wish me good luck, though, I'll be selling a lot of Pokemon merchandise at a convention tomorrow! ^^
Ugh I should've just posted, now I'm stuck so far behind...
The last paragraph is all I've changed.
I know 15lbs for a lance is heavy, however steel of that weight and size would be at least 50lbs, since it's more like a supersized greatsword. I have weights that go well past 15lbs, it's really really not that heavy if you're used to swinging it around. Also much of Hyperion's weight is at the very base of the blade, making it easier to position, as opposed to it being at the very end.

So far it seems like Pollen wants to come to conclusions in the middle of both arguments. Iolanthe's spear breaches Sigurd's guard, warming up his buttcrack a bit, but at the same time his sword's tip will leave a slice in her bracer. I won't write it being a fracture, or a very large wound either, because she's pushing his arm slightly, and pressuring it away, that'll at least count for something.

Wait a moment, and I'll edit in a small cut. I'll be busy the rest of the day and all of Saturday, however...
Everyone BUT me has posted in the most recent rotation... so I think I should be allowed a big post, right?

I'll just paste what I have in to Titanpad, cause I always wind up writing too much. Tell me if it'll work before or after that NPC post, OK, @Zanavy?

I'm going to be extremely busy with work tomorrow and Saturday, by the way, so I wanted to make that reply today...
I really didn't expect everyone to take such incredibly offense to Hope's initial teasing.
Of course, things got heated... and by no means is Tantalus's response respectful, either.
Definitely expect Hope to be further triggered.
Not to say I don't enjoy the drama! What is drama? But life! With the dull bits cut out!

@Ardent DawnThey love me! I was instantly hired. ^u^ Thanks for asking.
First day at my new job...

Oh gosh you guys, so many posts!
So a valid result would likely be:

Iolanthe takes a slice to her forearm, cutting a bit in to her bracer.

Sigurd takes a slice to one of his legs, which would be immediately cauterized.

?

@Drifting Pollen

EDIT: Before any edits need to be made IC, or a final conclusion is met, I'd like a few last questions clarified.

1. What will have happened to Iolanthe's shield bash? Where do you imagine it's location? From how I saw it, she was covering herself from the sword blow, whilst simultaneously trying to thrust Sigurd's forearm-sword guard region away. Mentioning there might be a clash of steel where Iolanthe's shield might meet the guard or fuller base of his sword means I'm imagining their positioning different than everyone else.

2. Iolanthe's has inhuman leg strength, meaning her pivot should be a lot faster than we're imagining a normal woman is capable of. Regardless of her giant freaking spear, would this be enough to save her forearm?

3. How heavy do you imagine Hyperion is? This is a mistake on my part not to mention its weight in the initial profile, however I did not imagine it being as heavy as a steel weapon of that size would be. Originally I had it in my mind that the lance would be about 15lbs max.
If the shield is being jammed under his arm, wouldn't he still have to wrestle it's weight before being able to make that chop? She's literally forcing her shield in to him, while keeping her right side as far away as she can from him. In one post, she'd lead with her left, then continue pivoting in the current post. I think the two-post mark for most of my movements should be enough. I'm aware that Iolanthe has some bulk on her, but many of her attacks have taken multiple turns to execute. It took 2 just to try and sneak the spear under that shield.

Is the ruling really that Iolanthe must lose a hand? I'd figure bashing his funny bone would be enough. The full length of his sword shouldn't even be getting close.

I say this because - he's wielding the sword in his right arm, and the shield is in Iolanthe's left. He's leading with his right, she's leading with her left. The closes points between them are Iolanthe's shield, and Sigurd's sword. I don't see her defense faltering here, it's just so simple...

EDIT: Also, the fact her shield and his sword already clashed means they're incredibly close. He never made an attempt to side-step a second time, to avoid how close that sword still should be to her hoplon.
