[ Ah yes. Somebody who knew how to fucking play ball without Forte having to back them into a corner.
Seeing his opening volley of buster shots dodged, Forte doesn't bother to evade the return attack and lets the Life Aura absorb the brunt of the burst of purple flames when Magicman darts under the gunfire and springs towards him. The barrier momentarily flickers into view as it licks across its surface. An uncharged shot doesn't pack the damage points sufficient for punching through it. The heat is felt through the barrier, yes, but it's harmless. Forte blinks; the light clears, exposing Magicman's nearness and his upraised sword. Forte moves backward a few feet from his initial position, swiftly.
But not that far.
Magicman was hardly the only one gauging his opponent, testing the waters. Still: ]
Don't mess around.
[ Since Magicman helpfully came this close, let's try more shooting at him again. Buster Rake: TAKE 2, can you dodge at close-range. ]
