“You okay?” you ask him telepathically, Broly's eye twitching but showing no other outward signs.
“Why didn't he try this in the tournament?” he asks, not necessarily asking you but just asking. “He chose such a risky combination of techniques to fight me, when he could do this?”
“Do you think you couldn't smash such a thing?” you ask, Broly finally turning around to face you as understanding dawns. “It may look impressive, and I'm sure it offers him some protection as well. But something that intricate and big no doubt consumes a lot of power. Against something noticeably stronger than him, it probably wouldn't be all that useful.”
“You're probably right.” he says, also telepathically as he turns back to the fight. The second pale dragon roars and charges in again, Chilli and the creature slamming into each other midair. Their bodies entwine, and begin dropping out of the air like a stone. “Clever.”
“Such a fall will probably break that one's neck.” Meloka says aloud.
“It will. That's how he killed the last one.” Megumin says cheerily, but you notice something behind her eyes as she says this. You recognize the look, it's one Meloka has given you on more than one occasion, each after a near-death experience. She's clearly worried about her husband. “Speaking of, guess what's for lunch?”
“Really? We get to eat that dragon?” Maz asks, Megumin chuckling a bit.
“Not that one.” she says, as you hear the distant 'thud' of Chilli and the other dragon slamming into the ground outside the village. “Your brother got another one the other day, and it's in the cellar. Once he's back, we'll get started fixing it.”
What about you?
