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.
3 yrs ago
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.

Mihama Nanako
That. That was enough to make the reality of the situation fully apparent.
"I-it's... not..." she trailed off. Maybe... it... it really was kind of weird, and even... even... most of the stuff she... sometimes she just got bored at night, it wasn't that often! And... only some of it was related to that, most of it was... girls with girls...
Nanako buried her face in her hands. Her occasional looks at material like that didn't mean the other stuff she looked at was any less embarrassing. Even if she didn't do it all the time, that didn't mean that it hadn't steadily built up over time. This... AI person, BB, she was really going to blackmail her if she didn't cooperate?! Couldn't she have just asked for help, first?
"... I... I understand," she said, finally, "... C-couldn't... you have asked for help, first? Rather then jumping right to blackmail..."
She trailed off.
"... But... I'll help..."

Mihama Nanako
For a moment, Nanako was simply about to wonder why Melt was hesitating(perhaps it was just because she'd never used a phone before? Or possibly because she hadn't fixed her sleeves so her hands were still covered up?).
Then, her phone proceeded to go completely insane. Playing a theme that she'd never heard before, it was abruptly taken over by some kind of hacker!? No! Her parents had gotten her this phone for her last birthday, it was one of the best ones they could possibly have bought! Worse still, her... data...
Nanako stared blankly. There was a very pretty purple-haired girl on her phone now. Talking to her. In a video. Perhaps this shouldn't have seemed so shocking and bizarre when someone was living in a city full of heroes of the past who had been revived via magic, but the truth was that she was completely speechless. Suddenly a great deal of strange subjects were discussed. Somehow she was this girl's senpai? But she was also an AI? The year 2030? It was practically making the brunette's head spin.
But there was something that caught her attention.
Meltryllis... couldn't use her hands? She had no legs below her knees, and she couldn't use her hands... That was horrible. No wonder she covered her hands. The fact that she couldn't use the elevator on her own suddenly made perfect sense. And that she hesitated before attempting to use the phone...
It was impossible not to feel pity. Meltryllis was effectively a quadruple amputee, unable to use her hands and missing her legs below her knee. The fact that BB had brought something like that up... it clearly had hit the Alter Ego quite deeply as well. She almost tried to speak up about it, almost, until-
"What? My... you're..."
She trailed off. There had been so much hitting her all at once, but the sudden implication of blackmail caught her completely off-guard. If she didn't respond, she'd have her internet history revealed?
"I... wha... what?"
It was a lot to take in all at once.

Kobayashi Seria
Seria relaxed a little when the conversation turned away from her. She nodded her head towards Lancelot, and moved out of the way. Really, if he'd been the first Knight of the Round Table she had met, it would have been hard to deny she would be a little starstruck. To be honest, it was kind of insane regardless. But when her own Servant was Mordred, perhaps that had made her a little more ready for such a meeting. In a world where someone could meet and interact with these figures out of myth and legend, perhaps they were simply more prepared to deal with doing so.
"Anything to do later?" Seria asked, "I have some homework I'll need to get started on, but it's not due for a while."
She paused for a moment.
"... You want to meet your father, don't you?"
It was obvious, just by the conversation they'd been having.
@KoL@Raineh Daze
@RolePlayerRoxas: I don't think that is a thing Arturia can do. D:
@Tachi: Okay with me! I'll let our main GM have a say too, though, obviously.
Hmmm.
I really want to intro Arturia but she has no Master yet hmmm.

Of course her parents had been okay with her going out for a little longer, though her mother had cautioned her not to stay out for too long. Hikari had assured her that she wouldn't, before following Tokiko to whatever destination the other magical girl had in mind. This all made sense... If she was going to participate in the Hex Night, that meant she needed to know everything about how a magical girl could fight, every single little thing a magical girl could do, right? She'd already seen enough to know they were all different, though, of course. But the point was that she needed to know what similarities they did share, and how to use them. And Tokiko could help her with that.
This place was kind of creepy, to be honest... but it also made some kind of sense. A warehouse seemed like it would be a good place to train, right? Out of sight, mostly open on the inside! That was the sort of place a magical girl could really test out her abilities? As long as they weren't so destructive they would take out the whole building.
Hikari transformed for the third time that night. At this point, the brunette was still sort of in awe of the feeling of magical power, the fact that she really was a magical girl. Her hair red, and eyes orange once more as she gripped her hammer.
"Eh? Of course I was paying attention, I'm no-"
Before she could complete that sentence, that fist came hurtling right towards her!
Thankfully, Hikari really had internalized the idea of using a barrier. Magical energy seemed to flow through her body, through her arms, and a circular barrier of crisscrossing symbols, encircled with kanji, materialized ahead of her! There was a distinct bell-ringing sound as the fist slammed into the shield!

"... Oh?"
Kagami, who had been listening to Himeko with an amused expression on her face, cocked her head slightly as she turned to face the approaching magical girl. Her mirrors turned in place, aiming towards the other girl, instead. They glinted in the steadily-setting sunlight. The fact was that simply being near her gave a feeling of pressure, as if she was somehow exuding some amount of power simply by existing.
"Another newcomer? Very well," she said with a grin, "I shall extend to you the same offer. Lay down your hex orb, or be crushed. Not even the both of you together can hope to overcome me. At best, you can expect to be crushed to the ground beneath my foot, trash."
But there wasn't any time to try and respond to the purple-haired girl's arrogant proposal. There was suddenly a that twisted feeling, the sensation of something evil coming to be... nearly on top of them! There was no question, it had to be another group of shades!
"Oh?" Kagami tilted her head the opposite way. Indeed, in the forest, strange four-legged, almost dog-like creatures were flitting between the trees, large orange eyes running across their flanks. Their heads appeared to be rounded and without mouths.
"... On second though... entertain your empress," said Kagami calmly, "And perhaps I shall allow you some time to contemplate my proposal."

"Uwah!?" exclaimed Hina, eyes widening as she stared at the now-proven-to-be-older girl. Immediately she hurried towards her, looking her over closely, "You're really that old!? I thought you were our age!"
Chise simply sighed behind her, evidently picking up much more quickly on the fact that Hanako wasn't pleased by that fact. Instead, after a few moments, she approached. She had a considerably more serious expression on her face then Hina did.
"So, how do you know the miko-san that runs the shrine?" she asked, tilting her head slightly.
"Oh yeah!" declared Hina, "We really want to talk to her a lot, so we want to know more!"

Indeed, the tavern was full of people, a few of them soldiers who had been allowed to leave their posts to be replaced with a fresher guard. They were mostly in awe of the knights, while some of the other patrons seemed quite confused with the conversation. The bartender, a tall, rather broad man with a friendly, warm expression on his face, nodded as he took Klaus's order, and first delivered some of their finest ale. The meat, naturally, took somewhat longer to be prepared properly. There was a distinct scent of various foods cooking, and just how appetizing it smelled... well, it was clear the tavern wasn't popular only for its alcohol.
Soon enough, a piece of fine steak was delivered. There were no real frills about it, but it was cooked perfectly, and seasoned well with salt and pepper.
"Ah, there's also this. A little lady wanted me to deliver it to you."
He produced a note from his pocket and placed it on the counter.
Don't forget about Ennifer!
It wasn't signed, but there was a small smiley face after the words. However, something seemed to almost write itself on the opposite side...
