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


She'd already recognized, by the way that her opponent held himself, that he was intensely skilled with a blade. But now he had shown additional capabilities to that. Not only was he skilled with the use of a sword, but he also possessed the ability to use ice as his weapon... Indeed, he was following up her own blows with a strike of his own! But the heir to the Konpaku family's techniques wouldn't stand by and allow herself to be defeated by something like that!

Youmu's hand flashed to her sheathed blade, and she drew Hakurouken just as swiftly as she drew her first sword, deflecting the attack! It had been a surgical strike, one aimed to disable her hands and force her to drop Roukanken, but now she wielded both blades! The small, pale girl leaped back, out of range of her opponent's weapon for a moment, and while he recovered from his initial strike she darted in with both of her katana at the ready, striking out at him with a flurry of blows!

Abigail Williams


Ah... it hadn't been a direct hit, but Abigail could tell she'd managed to hurt the bad lady! It was a little unpleasant, seeing the way that she'd taken a chunk out of the woman's arm, but it wasn't anywhere near as unpleasant as the idea of letting her hurt any other innocent people... nodding firmly to herself, after seeing a vehicle knock the woman further away, the little blonde girl swiftly made her pursuit! Her barrier of tendrils faded away, but before she reached the pale woman she had suddenly snapped back to her feet! The strange woman wound up with her sword over her shoulder...

And Abigail yelped in surprise when she fired a beam of flames and blood from the tip of her sword, only barely managing to evade it at the last second! With a wave of one of her overly-long sleeves, the Foreigner Servant cast a swarm of balls of light towards her opponent, which promptly surrounded her and exploded, knocking the woman off her feet. Now, there almost seemed to be strange, bloodless holes in her form, perforating it on her left side, but she was still coming!

Lights appeared around Abigail's body, glowing tendrils emerging from them to lash out against her enemy!

Caster


If Keisuke or Eleonor were hoping to have a serious first meeting where they could learn about one another, they were sadly mistaken.

"Oh, so we have a new Master?"

Skuld seemed to materialize from no-where, stepping out from behind Keisuke(at least as far as anyone could tell). She immediately stepped towards the newcomer, looking her over in an appraising fashion as as she did. After a few moments of this examination, she determined that this was someone worthy of her attentions.

Perhaps moreso then Keisuke. In fact, definitely moreso then Keisuke.

"Mmm, and a beautiful one, too... fufu~" a grin crossed the Caster's face as she approached the new Master, "I am the Great Elven Queen, Princess Skuld, summoned as Caster!"

She cast a sly glance back at Keisuke, before returning her focus to the new Master.

"To be frank, I think you're much more interesting than Keisuke," she continued, with a shrug of her slight shoulders, "Did you know he wouldn't give me any attention at all? Even though I'm one of the greatest seductresses of Norse Mythology!"

She let out a huff, placing her hands on her hips, before leaning towards the new girl and smiling.

"Of course... I'm sure you have far better taste, don't you...~?"

@A Lowly Wretch: You get a general idea of where it went.
@A Lowly Wretch: You can't lose them, but they can be taken. You'll have some awareness of that fact, though.
@A Lowly Wretch: Hex Orbs can only be broken by other magical girls. It's okay if you do that, but Naoko is Tsukimi's friend so be prepared.
Saber


Perhaps, normally, Saber would have been drawn to the idea of dinner. After all, the food of this time was so excellent... that, and after the experience they had in the singularity, a meal seemed like an excellent idea. Fenrir, such a great beast... she had only been able to slay it in a single blow because it was stunned. That, and the nature of the singularities themselves... who was responsible for such a thing? So far, it was impossible to discern. Whoever it was had access the the Holy Grail... not only one, but many, that they could distribute just like that. On top of that, the corruption that had overtaken Brynhildr was something wholly unnatural. That black mud, seething with red...

But on top of that...

Illyasviel von Einzbern. The daughter of the woman who had once been in her charge. Somehow, she had been summoned here as a Servant. The King of Knights couldn't understand how such a thing could have occurred, but undeniably it was the case.

She hesitated for some time before deciding to approach the small, white-haired girl.

"... Illyasviel...?"

When Hikari landed on her feet, her entrance was made somewhat less impressive by the fact that she wasn't quite prepared to compensate for her hammer's bulk, and stumbled forward before getting control of herself. As she did, she managed to take another look at her transformed self, now that she'd taken out one enemy magical girls. The hammer... the back of the head, the dragon-shaped part, was billowing smoke. She'd heard a crack, like the sound of a firework being launched and exploding. Was that why she had suddenly gone rocketing through the air so quickly? Had the back of her hammer worked like some kind of rocket booster?!

If so, that... that was kind of awesome...

But she couldn't let herself be too distracted!

"Ah?! Uh, a marble? What? Why would there be..." she shook her head. It sounded important, so...!

Naoko sighed.

"Aah, man, it was so cool I lost track of what I was doing," she lamented, apparently not too dismayed at being stuck in a hold beneath the monstergirl. In fact... she was starting to grin.

"Well, enough laying around! Let me show you the Blazing Blood of the Oni!"

Suddenly, an intense, unbearable heat began to radiate from Naoko's body. Her skin began to glow, an overwhelming aura expanding from her... there was more than physical strength to Naoko's reputation!

"You wasted enough time staring at the ground on the way here that you should already know all about the local plants," commented Sophie, with a huff and the folding of her arms. The healer was utterly incompetent when it came to dealing with other people, ad also somewhat naive in general. How different could the plants and animals possibly be when they were less then a day from the guild? The sun was only beginning to set!

For that matter, the swordsman was overly cautious, at least in Sophie's opinion. They were to be exploring an underground complex, it would be dark regardless of the time of day. She wasn't exactly in the mood to sit around and waste even more time waiting for it to be morning, she hadn't brought her camping equipment anyway and didn't fancy the idea of sharing a tent with any of the workers around here.

But the other matters were curious. What was in the ruin they'd been asked to investigate that required adventurers, and why was a student in charge of such an important dig site?

"Eh-heheheh..." Kiri placed a finger to her cheek, "Er, as far as I'm aware, nothing around here is particularly unusual. As far as animals and plants go, I mean. It's only a few hours away from Venne after all."

She paused for a moment, a little uneasy after having been asked so many questions so quickly. Especially after the drider's comments.

"... Er... w-well... Ah! Miss Leynanniel, er, has it right," she said, nervously fidgeting as she spoke, "Professor Archibald, um, shortly after discovering the new ruins he suddenly declared he had other matters that needed his attention and ran off... he's doing that a lot, really..."

Before she could continue, Sophie interjected suddenly.

"I don't see why the time of day should stop us," she asserted, "It's an underground ruin. It's going to be dark and dreary during the day just as much as it will be at night, isn't it?"

The purple-haired girl really didn't want to be delayed any longer than they already had been.

"W-well, all that's up to you," commented Kiri, shifting from one foot to the other, "But, well... it's strange. Professor Archibald believed this ruin was concealed with an illusion, and... as you might know, the last ruin hidden with an illusion had undead inside of it."

That certainly explained why they'd wanted adventurers brought in.

"On top of this, we're fairly certain it's a crypt of some sort, which means the presence of undead is even more likely," the mage student added, "I wish I could say more, but there's still so much we don't know about these ruins. We still can't tell for sure if it was even elves who built them. I-I promise, I'm not hiding anything."

The light seemed to suffuse her very being, flowing through her. A gentle, pleasant warmth spread from her chest, then throughout her entire body, filling every part of her with such a wonderful feeling.

Hikari let out a sigh.

When she opened her eyes, the fact that all of her clothing had somehow dissipated into nothing didn't even dawn on her. She was in some sort of barrier, a brilliant world of warmth and magic. Was this... was this how becoming a magical girl felt?

From the outside, it would seem as if the small brunette had suddenly disappeared into an orb of light. A typical protective field to defend a magical girl during her transformation.

The light flowed across her body, forming clothing. A ribbon, and then... it coalesced into the form of a kimono, a somewhat less traditional, frilly orange one, with a layered red skirt that appeared in a sudden burst of fire. Indeed, each item of clothing, even the ribbons in her hair, suddenly appeared with a burst of flames after initially forming from the resplendent light.

But somehow, it felt like that suited her!

As it flowed across her legs, it formed a pair of frilled thigh-highs, and finally a set of platform geta, extending her height by a fair amount.

And then...

With a flash of flames, a long handle, and then the great head of a hammer appeared. As she reached out to grip it, with surprise, she noticed that the rear of the head resembled a dragon, the front somehow appearing to be a bell...

Hikari swung it, once, experimentally, then gripped it in both hands.

The light faded away, and Hikari's geta clacked on the concrete ground. Immediately, unable to help it, she looked down at herself in awe. This... had really happened! She was really wearing that outfit, holding that hammer... She was really a magical girl! She hadn't even noticed her hair had turned a brilliant red, eyes intensely orange.

"I... I really transformed!" she exclaimed.

"Of course," replied the fairy, brightly, "Now you're a real magical girl!"

As much as Hikari wanted to take all of this in, there wasn't much time to do so. She had no idea what she could do, or how this hammer worked, but she had to try something to intervene... Hikari drew her hammer back over her shoulder...

"... Gaah, I screwed up... but I'll take you out!" declared Tsukimi, her attention focusing once again on Tokiko, "Take a good, long look! This is my Killing Needle: Death of the Deathle-"

She didn't complete her attack.

There was the sound of fireworks being set off, and Hikari suddenly rocketed in from the side! Her hammer slammed into the distracted Tsukimi, propelled by the fireworks like a rocket! It wasn't a particularly practiced attack, but all that was needed right now was force. The impact lifted the other girl off her feet and sent her hurtling through the air, slamming into the wall across the alley with enough force to break through it entirely!

Naoko, who had been pushing her strength against the monstergirl, was momentarily distracted by the sudden display of the new magical girl's abilities.

"Ohhh, so she's all about high impact too, huh?!" she declared, brightly, uncaring for the fact that another opponent had just been created, "You okay, Tsukimi-chan?"

Tsukimi, knocked completely senseless, wasn't exactly in a position to respond.

@Anza@A Lowly Wretch
"If you want to become a magical girl... you simply have to tell me! Say 'I want to be a Magical Girl'! I've already determined you have the potential, that's all I need!"

She had the potential... that was all she needed. Hikari took a deep breath. This was all crazy, and apparently there was something happening soon, something dangerous and frightening that involved magical girls as a whole... but that wasn't something she was going to let discourage her.

The brunette couldn't just sit there and watch any longer, and there was no way she could ever pass up the opportunity to become a magical girl. And...

"That girl made me so angry, she's so irritating... But I... I can't let her fight alone, and I can't pass up the kind of opportunity I've been hoping for... So... I want to be a magical girl!"

"That's great!" chirped the fairy, cheerfully, "Now hold still..."

She raised one small hand to Hikari's chest, and...!

Naoko grinned as she saw the elbow crashing towards her, and raised her arm defensively. The blow from the monstergirl clearly rocked her entire frame, but as a testament to the strength Steel Rod Naoko was renowned for, she didn't falter. Nearly any other magical girl would be knocked flat, but the oni girl stayed on her feet, her grin becoming only slightly less strained.

"Heheh, this is a pretty good matchup for me! Two girls with a monster theme, duking it out-that's pretty kickass, right? Even if you're not really a magical girl 'n all!" she declared, raising her kanabo back for another blow as she stepped back. Even if her arm did hurt, it was clear she wasn't letting it distract her!

"Tesl-"

Tsukimi's eyes widened in surprise when the bolt of electricity fired, and she was barely able to summon a circular barrier between herself and the electrical blast, and when it slammed into her it still immediately shattered the crimson shield and sent her flying back, slamming into the wall at the end of the alley, where two alleyways intersected. Smoking slightly, the spear-wielding magical girl slid down the wall and lay still...

... For a moment. Wincing as she slowly raised herself to her feet, giving a wavering smile, the girl used her spear to help herself get up.

"Heh... I might not be too s-strong... but I'm good at getting back on my feet!"

She spun her spear in her hands, taking a ready stance once more.

"If that's your game, I'll just have to respond in kind!"

Her strained smile turning into a somewhat vicious grin, the visage of the spear suddenly shattered.

And what was underneath...

The description of the spear as a needle suddenly became far more accurate. It was a huge, unusually-shaped needle, with strange inscriptions on the side, balanced in Tsukimi's hands.

"This is my Killing Needle, Frankenstein-sensei!" she asserted, still bearing that vicious grin, "Of course, it won't kill another magical girl, but it'll sure hurt!"

As she spoke, a red light began to build at the needle's tip, slowly spreading across it...

But then...

Magical energy flowed through Hikari's body, as the fairy ignited the dreams in her heart.

A brilliant light flashed, concealing her within a defensive barrier as she began to undergo her first transformation as a magical girl!
