"Then let's talk defence. Now, there's two kinds of defence: static and moving. Static is your blocking and reflecting, whereas moving is dodging out of the way. Now, blocking can work, but it's usually better to reflect someone's blow. You absorb less of the power, and it sets you up better for a counter attack. Dodging should be pretty self explanatory." [b][i]He said jokingly, holding his blade at the ready.[/i][/b] "Want me to demonstrate the idea of reflecting instead of blocking?"

"Yes, please," Blake requested.
-
"Alright. Blocking is all static. Hold up the blade and stop theirs." [b][i]He said as he readied his blade.[/i][/b] "Go ahead, swing at me and I'll show you. Don't worry about hitting me, you won't."
-
Blake did a half-hearted, little force swing. He didn't put that much energy in it. The blow was a simple, one haned, horizontal strike.

[b][i]Angelo raised his sword to block it, using his other hand to brace the blow as the sound of metal against metal was heard. The blade pushed back down towards Angelo a bit, as he shoved it back.[/i][/b] "Blocking absourbs more of the energy, meaning more damage to the weapon and more chance it can break, along with hurting you a bit more. Now, strike again." [b][i]He said. Angelo clearly knew what he was doing quite well.[/i][/b]
-
He sliced more diagnolly, again, not as much force as he probably would.
