(He's so close and she still isn't reacting. It isn't for very long but he knows something isn't right about this. She should be reacting by now unless she's stupid or... looking down on him? Is that it? Is she looking down on him?
He doesn't have long to really think before he's deflected. He keeps moving, too late to slow down but not so unskilled that he can't control his own force. He keeps going and instead of resisting and forcing himself to stop before he's ready, he keeps going. He manages to stop naturally, sliding to the other side of the wall and catching himself, his center of gravity low to the ground and sword raised up defensively as if expecting a retaliation attack.)
... Got lucky.
(Maybe. It was strange. He's still processing and even then, he feels like... he's missing something.)
