It really hadn't occored to Mithril that his new best friend forever and ever Gris might not understand how to wield a sword. Mostly because the idea of intricate swordsmanship was completely lost on him. 'You just swing it...what else is there to it?' he would ask if the subject was brought up. Oh sure, he understood the need for flashy sword techniques, but it really wasn't the same as understand the importance of your stance, how you hold the sword, and other such things. So instead of coming to the realization that his partner had absolutely no idea what he was doing, he was excited at his courageous charge (he also couldn't tell that his fierce battlecry sounded more like a small creature in distress) The impact of his blade against the Bisharp's metal exterior didn't bother Mithril at all. While it is indeed true that living bodies are incredibly complex things, and that the smallest bit of damage in just the right place could prove life threatening...it wasn't the case with a Honedge's blade. The metal blades of his race's evolution line were completely devoid of nerves, so he had absolutely no sensation down there. Not only that, but the blade would grow back if damaged. The closest comparison to a Honedge's blade one could make, is to claws. So no, despite how much the feeling of his blade striking something else metal should have hurt, it caused him no pain. While Mithril was a little disappointed at how quickly and anti-climatically the fight ended, he was more excited about their new super secret team move. Because as everyone knows; the best super secret team moves are made up on the fly in the heat of battle with no training or preparation. So yeah, over all this was a really good debut fight as far as Mithril was concerned "[color=ed145b]EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! This is so exciting!!![/color]" he squeed as he followed his new best friend forever and ever Gris "[color=ed145b]I'm so happy to be alive right now. They all said I was crazy for trying to follow my dreams. Well who's crazy now voices in my head?![/color]" Manly tears of joy leaked from his single eyes as he kept up with his partner.
