[ So there's this forest, your typical forest with a spotty canopy overhead and a well-travelled path winding through it. Since it wouldn't do to stand in the middle of the road the young man who would be occupying the it on his broom stands completely still, eyes closed, at the edge a short distance away from it and well out of the way of any passing travellers.

And he just stands there. Who knows for how long? People probably saw them on their way into and out of the forest, still like some little statue. He has a bag beside a tree, but whatever is inside it carries a horrible smell. Has he been there so long that his lunch rotted? Who knows.

Maybe he's asleep. ]

No, I feel better now.

[ He stood up straight, then, and looked Parsee in the eye. ]

I can continue practicing now, if you don't attack me again...

[ Eating super pickles increased your concentration, don't you know? ]

[ What a poor use of his chance. Insulting the youkai does not give you any favours, Rody. ]

You haven't crumbled yet.

[ And have a final explosion of bullet barrage, simple one. ]

[ He didn't get the chance to respond before he was clutching his broom for support again. The bullets hurt. The poison hurt. He could feel bruises forming across his skin, but he was going to stand there. Wait it out, like he did when he protected Estella.

Until his knees grew weak and he crumbled with his broom in his arms. ]
