I said Listia's reaction time is nearly instantaneous, so if I wanted to push it I could say she saw his attack and was able to slow down just a tad bit to make his swing early rather than late, but I don't care enough for that option to force it. I'll just go with the "swing a tad too late" option instead due to the most likely and such. Hopefully she doesn't experience death by fanny shot in your next post. (P.S. I thought it only meant buttocks, but apparently the British have the other meaning that applies better in this case). She would have planned on swinging with both hands to make sure she had the extra strength for that attack, so that's her grip in the current post, right hand over the left one in typical fashion. I'll have to plan my next post that may or may not change this. I should figure out how long a girl of her size would have for an arm length if you guys want it.
