Perish Song isn't the worst plan, if you have the power to stall. Or think you have the power to stall, anyway. Unfortunately for Claude, the beautiful, operatic sounds of Jynx's melody appear to really, really piss his stubby-legged opponent off, at least if her sudden change in appearance is any indication.
She starts to run in place again, and the wheel looks the same.... but..............
Well, let's just cut to Dirk and Felix, that's probably going better, right?
...it certainly can't go much worse, let's be real about that.
Getting his feet back was most of what Dirk wanted out of that little skirmish, though, and at least as far as that's concerned, he's successful. He's a little... over the top about it, though, leaping up and curling himself in to do a tight, balled-up double backflip onto his feet, cane ready in one hand--which quickly becomes two, as he uses it to parry Felix's assault, and not a second too soon.
"What nonsense are you defending?" he asks, although he's looking for an opening. Any one, anywhere. Just enough to push Felix back again, get the momentum in his favour--whatever that takes.
