<Snipped quote by Ignacious>

*Holds my thumb against the point of my knife, just barely breaking skin*
You only respect true strength. Allow me to remind you...
*The briefest fraction of a second before impact, the world appears reduced to black and white watercolors—all momentum is drained from you and I walk comfortably around your body as if time were stopped, leaning in toward your ear*
Why you respect me.
*Kicks your stomach and drops my elbow onto your back—as the world hiccups back to normal as both strikes hit at once, cleaving you like a pair of scissors*
[/quote]

*my body continues forward, splitting in half and rolling to a stop*
