[Fox, however, has no interest in playing fair, and makes a snowball to drop on Albinass' head from up on a rooftop. The shadow might give it away as it comes down, but Fox hopes this might get her at least a few hits.]

[The utter cheaters....!

...are the ones who took her off the playing field when she wasn't defeated. So this instead, she lets slide. She moves quickly out of the line of attack and her eyes find Fox.

This presents a challenge. Her needle thousand attack goes out in all directions quite far - exactly what she'd need for this sort of range, too - but the same weak point applies: because of its range, it's not as strong as her closer-range attacks.

Snowballs will be the same. She can possibly get them up to the roof, but they'll be slow and lethargic by the time they get there. Several snowballs, seemingly at once, head that way anyway.]

[She moves back from the edge of the roof, letting the snow land harmlessly on the ledge. She packs another snowball, and this time throws it rather deliberately at the warrior woman.]

[As the queen piece, she is amazingly agile and fast. She combines the movement of both the rook and bishop. Thus, with the height of the building giving her time anyway, it's fairly easy to miss the snowballs.]

[Tom is looking much healthier than in days past, walking down the road, in an effort to explore more of Adstringendum. In all actuality, he probably shouldn't be out and about... but Tom loathes waiting around and having people think him weak, so out and about he will be.

He is determined to find some source of information in this damnable city. Perhaps this road will leads somewhere.]

[This road leads to snowballs. Quite a lot of them. Quite a lot of them at once, actually, coming from the same source and all firing out in just very slightly different angles to make sure it's harder to dodge.]

[And the snowballs hit a magical shield.

Guess who cast 'Protego' before he went outside today?

Tom looks up, hands in his pockets, eyes narrowed, to see who had been stupid enough to throw a volley of snowballs at him. His fingers are curled around his wand in his pocket, fully prepared to resort to childishness if need be, but for the time being, Tom remains stock still.]

[Stupid is not a word many people would associate with the metalic creature standing in front of Tom. Her lips purse.]

A protective spell. Good boy.
