[h2]Jennifer Whittemore[/h2] It would have been way too easy to focus entirely on what was going on below her and miss whatever was going on above. So ''trivial'' to fall into the human trap of not looking up, then get taken by surprise. Especially when you were used to being the one attacking from above and looking down on groundbound opposition. But despite everything about her, Jennifer's reflexes and awareness were still plenty good, and when even the flicker of something from above came into her peripheral version, she [i]moved[/i]. It was a good thing too, coming up well out of the laser's path. How [i]dare[/i] this Warped be doing that! [i]She[/i] was the aerial specialist here, and she didn't have any sort of cool strafing ability like that! Plus, if she did, Jennifer would try [i]way[/i] harder to actually track whatever she was fighting and not just blow up anything and everything that got in the way! Though it would be [i]really[/i] neat to be able to clear a big line of Warped like that without having to descend, maybe [i]that[/i] was something she could hope for... But fine, if it was an aerial battle it wanted, it was an aerial battle it would get! It was huge, and powerful, but [i]she[/i] had speed, and if it thought it could win a dogfight against her, then the birdmonster had another thing coming-- Oh, punchy wanted to take it out with her? Good, good! "I'll try to pin it down, you take it out!" After all, there had to be agility on her side, and if it was constantly twisting to try and get her with that laser or its talons, it would be forced to give up its own dodging to try and get a lock! If not diving to find a way to get an angle. Because of [i]course[/i] the flying Frame Pilot's instinct was to climb even higher than the bird monster and dive for its back. If she just had to keep attacking from above and [i]literally[/i] push it blast by blast down... that was good too.
