Current I think watching fight scenes can help in general terms with writing combat, since it can give you an idea of flow and choreography.

At least if you're writing something you know, with knights.

I mean, depends on what you're writing, and the tone and theme of what you're writing. Trained armored knights were legitimately monstrous on the battlefield, so looking up how they fought helps.

As much as there's a lot of reasons twitter sucks, I genuinely don't want to see it die for the sake of all the artists who now rely on it. Hoping the shithead stops trying to directly administrate.

Konpaku Youmu


Youmu tilted her head in mild confusion. She'd never heard of a rubberman... but that must be some kind of youkai. Which definitely explained some things, that was for sure. And it made a lot more sense then him being a fully human male. She nodded after only a moment of confusion. Certainly there must have been some youkai she had never heard of, and this boy was one of them. It made a lot more sense then any of the other alternatives, right? Her attention, however, swiftly returned to scanning the horizon. She didn't know what the rubberman's boat was like, but it was still worth trying to spot anything that looked like it could be it, wasn't it? When Ryu mentioned a quest, however, the half-phantom girl turned to face him and shook her head.

"I'm not interested in any quests, or anything like that," she stated, firmly. Unless it was a matter of life and death, the purpose in her mind was a rather singular one, and it didn't include going on some kind of expedition to some place she'd never heard of before.

"My only quest is to return to Yuyuko-sama's side," she concluded.

@Masterkeun @MacDuffy
So @Yidhra said this was okay so yeah!

  • Name: Tachibana Hibiki
  • Title: N/A
  • Gender: Female
  • Appearance: Civilian Symphogear
  • Personality: Hibiki is a cheerful, energetic girl with a kind heart. She always wants to talk with others no matter how opposite their view points. She wants to reach out, take their hands, and try and understand them. Even if they're enemies, and even if they fight, she wants to understand others. Hibiki's cheerful attitude isn't unbreakable, as things that remind her of less pleasant times can deeply shake her. But she always tries to bounce back and put on a sunny attitude her hardest. Even if she's kind and understanding, she's also very willing to fight to protect those in need, to help her friends, and stop those who would hurt others or threaten the world. Hibiki loves to eat, and loves helping others. However, she can be a little aloof and dense at times, and when it comes to "book smarts" she isn't exactly the best, even if it wouldn't be accurate to call her stupid. Hibiki has a deep adoration for her roommate Kohinata Miku, referring to Miku as "her sunshine".
  • Ideals: Believing in Justice and holding determination in her fist. Also trying to understand everyone.
  • Biography: Over two years ago, Hibiki was the sole survivor of an attack by the Noise, an alien race that relentlessly attacked humanity by converting themselves and their victims into carbon. As a result, she gained a shard of a fragment of the relic Gungnir, embedded in her chest. After three incidents, one of which involved the removal of the shard in her body and her gaining a proper relic fragment, she is still dedicated to helping others using her power as a Symphogear user.
  • Abilities: Hibiki uses a fragment of the Relic Gungnir, attuning with it in order to done a suit of power armor known as the Symphogear System. Though she is now able to manifest an armed gear, a weapon based upon the original relic, she rarely does. And when she does, it is only as an extension of her fist. Hibiki fights using the enhanced strength granted by her Symphogear, and martial arts she was trained in by SONG's commanding officer, Kazanari Genjuro. As such, her attacks are her punches and kicks, and she lacks any named abilities. Due to her armor's development, she can now utilize both piston-style movement boosts and rocket boosters on her arms and legs to increase the impact of her attacks or her movement speed. Hibiki can also support the usage of suicidal attacks by bearing some of the burden herself, but only if they run on a system similar to the Symphogears. As Symphogears are activated by music, Hibiki sings as she fights. The Symphogear system also allows for interaction with things that are out of phase with reality, allowing Hibiki to attack targets that are attempting to avoid damage using such methods. Hibiki possesses a supermode that increases her power output greatly, known as Ignite Mode, but it is only utilized when necessary.
  • Weapons: Aside from her fists, Hibiki can manifest a drill-like spear gauntlet on her arm in some circumstances, and use rocket boosts on her gauntlets and boots in all circumstances.
  • Equipment: A fragment of the relic Gugnir.
  • Universe of Origin: Senki Zesshou Symphogear
Konpaku Youmu


Youmu let out a gasp of mild surprise. It was less that she had never experienced this sensation, and more that she didn't expect the straw hat boy to do it like this. He could fly too? She hadn't seen any fully human men who could fly before... And then she realized they were falling again, before landing high above the rest of the city on a rooftop. When the straw hat boy released her, she stepped away from him and looked around the city carefully. Indeed, there was a harbor off in the distance.

When Ryu spoke to her, she glanced over her shoulder and waved her hand, as if to wave away her concerns.

"I can fly," she explained, simply, "I'm more surprised that a fully human boy could do something like that..."

The only full humans she'd ever seen fly were Marisa and Reimu.... and perhaps Fujiwara no Mokou, but she was a bit of a unique case. As a result, it simply wasn't what she expected to see happen... though that had been more like jumping very high. Had it been a spell of some kind? That would make sense given he seemed to say some kind of incantation or something like that.

"There's so much..." she wondered, peering across the cityscape, "There must be someone here who knows what's going on..."

Nishimura Yuki


It was about then that someone else showed up. A Chinese woman, in clothing that looked more suited for a much colder temperature, wearing glasses and with a little floating robot following her around. She was kind of cute, really! And she seemed friendly... even if the robot was kind of confusing if she was transported to Vivi's world somehow. Then again, with how the Chinese woman was speaking, it seemed like Yuki wasn't the only person who had been taken here somehow. No, it appeared she was a a victim of the strange transportation too! That meant there could be more people in danger... that was definitely something to keep in mind. For now, however, Yuki raised her hand and waved.

"It's nice to meet you, Zhou-san," she called to the older woman, as Ruru excitedly circled the floating robot that had nudged her at a high speed, "My name is Nishimura Yuki. So I'm not the only one stuck in this ridiculous situation? That's reassuring."

She let out a bit of a relieved sigh. If there were other people who'd been transported to this place, then they could all work together and find out how to get home quickly.

"Vivi-kun says there's a castle," she added, "I think if we go there we might be able to figure out what's going on. At least... it's the best idea I can think of so far."

@RolePlayerRoxas @Rin


Galaxies? Starships? This guy was talking like a Star Wars character or something! Wasn't this totally the wrong setting for that? Unless it was some kind of Final Fantasy style thing and they were about to see some kind of airship or something... that'd be cool, honestly, even if D.Va had some more pressing concerns right now. She still didn't exactly know whether to trust him or not, but at the same time there was no reason to start a fight or anything like that. Still, this was all really weird. She felt like she'd definitely seen a similar setup to this in something though at the moment she couldn't remember exactly what kind of media it had been that she'd seen it in. "I didn't get here on a ship or anything. I was just suddenly... here! It was like a level-skipping cheat code!"

That was a good analogy in D.Va's mind. It's what it felt like to her, in very old games there was frequently a lack of any options in terms of selecting a level yourself. Therefore codes were sometimes completely necessary in order to pick a level out. At least, provided the game was split up into levels like that.

Admittedly, she couldn't help but smile a little bit, though, when Reinhardt, an actual former founding member of Overwatch, attempted to deny that he was a fan. It wasn't the first time she'd heard something similar, and it wouldn't be the last. It's not as if she really minded. As long as the appreciated her, it was okay if they were reluctant to admit it!

"Doing good is great and all," she added, "But I need to get back home. I was just wrapping up a combat operation, my teammates and my fans need me!"

Konpaku Youmu


Youmu's embarrassment at her own small size rose when the boy reiterated his comment about her relative tininess. Sure Yuyuko-sama always calls her small but... but it's not like she's... Mentally, Youmu simply trailed off for a moment. At least until she realized what the straw hat guy was saying. He'd transitioned from calling her short to complimenting her on her swordplay and strength? That was nice! A lot nicer then talking about her height! And then... comparing her to someone she'd never heard of? And then asking about her phantom half... those questions had call come pretty fast...

"Ah, er, thank you!" she said quickly, looking back up as she tried to respond as fast as she could. "I've never met anyone called Zoro and er, Myon is a part of me!"

Youmu gestured towards the drifting ghostly shape, but the straw hat bow had already moved on to Ryu. He certainly seemed energetic, to say the least. Aaah, talking about her height was still embarrassing though...

And then he prodded her phantom half. It would feel cool and soft, like a slightly chilled pillow. Youmu let out a yelp and covered her head, feeling the sensation of the poke to her phantom half just as she would have if she had been poked directly.

"Please... please don't do that," she said, after a moment, "I feel everything Myon feels, so if you wouldn't do something to me don't do it to my phantom half."

@Masterkeun @MacDuffy
Poor Youmu, she just did something awesome and it's punctuated with her getting embarrassed about her height. D:

Also this is pretty fantastic.
I'll probably post later today or tomorrow, depending on how things go.
I keep forgetting my mentions. ^^;

Nishimura Yuki


"... A mage?" Yuki paused for a moment, thinking that suggestion over. While it was true that she used magic, she wasn't necessarily sure that she qualified as a mage exactly. But that could have a lot to do with her personal perception of what exactly one would call a mage. To her, mage brought to mind someone who cast ancient spells and did a whole lot of reading from scrolls and stuff. Or books. Maybe, in some contexts, summoned ancient spirits from the past to fight for a legendary relic or something. Yuki herself punched things. Really hard and in a very awesome fashion she was quite proud of, but she wasn't sure it exactly made her a mage. Still, she did use magic. "Ummm... I guess you could say I'm a mage? I use magic and all, so that's one way to describe me."

Her hand found the back of her head. She really wasn't sure about this, and it made her feel a bit awkward... and then her irritation swelled as she tried to brush the confetti out of her hair. Where had the fairy even gotten so much?!

Meanwhile, Ruru seemed to swell with pride as Vivi attempted to pronounce her name.

"See, Yuki-chan?!" Ruru declared cheerfully, "This is his first time meeting me and he's trying to say my name way harder then you did! You're awesome, Vivi-kun!"

Yuki's attention turned from brushing the confetti out of her hair to glaring at her fairy.

"It's not my fault your name is nearly unpronounceable," she complained, folding her arms under her chest once more. "None of the other fairies have a name like that."

"It makes me more memorable!" responded Ruru brightly.

Yuki sighed, before her attention returned to Vivi.

"Anyway, Vivi-kun... you said there was a castle, right? Do you know where it is? If we head there, we might be able to figure some things out."

Konpaku Youmu


Who... who was this straw hat wearing guy, just suddenly jumping over the pile of unconscious bodies to run right towards her? He looked impressed by her defeat of the strange men(one of whom was stubbornly clinging to consciousness and weakly groaning, possibly about poor decisions he had made that day), but that assumption was quickly dispelled when he knelt down in front of her and... loudly commented on her height. For a moment, Youmu's blue eyes were simply wide in bewilderment at the situation, as her phantom half drifted to and fro behind her. Her hand slipped off the hilt of her katana... and she found herself blushing in embarrassment.

Her height wasn't... that is, she wasn't too short or anything, was she? Sure, there were a fair number of people no matter where she went who were taller, sometimes by quite a bit, but... that blonde witch was about the same height as her and there were some others, so it wasn't like she was strangely short or something, right? The white-haired girl's gaze drifted to the left and downward, her phantom half making a similar motion with the bulkier upper portion of its shape.

"I-I'm not that short..." Youmu mumbled, her cheeks still flushed from her height being taken note of.

@Masterkeun @MacDuffy
Konpaku Youmu


'Sounds like a ward or a barrier'? It didn't to Youmu. It sounded like the men were starting a fight for no reason. To be fair, that wasn't exactly uncommon in Gensokyo... but Ryu's concerns about their deaths were unfounded. Her hand firmly gripped her Roukanken's blade, and she shut her eyes. They weren't in the air, perhaps they couldn't fly? That made this challenge even more foolish. Regardless, that made it all the more easy to defeat them. Youmu was not confident in all areas, but she could hold a great deal of confidence in her ability to wield a sword.

Perhaps if one watched closely enough they would have been able to see the blur of green and white as it flashed through the crowd of men. But what was visible for certain was Youmu's sudden appearance behind them, sheathing her katana. Some of the men hit the ground more quickly then others, but they all hit the ground, in pain or unconscious. However, naturally, Youmu had utilized danmaku rules in her attack. The lethality of her blade was blunted, and as a result there was no physical injury to any of those she had attacked.

The small girl straightened.

"Please, don't attempt to challenge us again," Youmu said, straightening as she glanced back towards the men lying on the ground, addressing the ones who were still conscious, "We're still trying to figure out what's going on."
