"Option one, if you're fast." Gideon aims a blow at his blade, high left arcing downward, but swaps to one-handed at the last second, twirling her blade in an arc beyond her own shoulder and bringing the pommel around, slowing as she does so, so it bumps against the back of his hand.

She steps back again. "Option two, if you're nasty." She aims the same blow, but this time catching his blade and staying caught, steel sliding against steel until they're crossguard to crossguard, and then she twists, so that Galahad's hand is pinched between his grip and her pommel.

She steps back again. "You can also aim for elbows. Trochlea's thicker, harder to break, but it's easier to hit the nerve, make the hand numb."
