[When Dimitri notices the attack, he knows it's too late. He won't be able to parry, and all he can do to block is turn his body to catch the blow with his shoulder instead of his torso-

Allura's voice rings through the room, and Dimitri recognizes the sure step to her foot along with the crash of blunt weapon into metal.

She must have battlefield experience as well - a realization both grim and exciting.] Thank you! [He speaks quickly, breath caught in his throat as he moves to stand facing one of the two remaining dummies.

The strange doll ticks from side to side, smooth motions meant to catch his eye and distract him from any tells as to its next attack. A second stands between Dimitri and Allura, blocking the pair from working together but also precariously situated in potential crossfire.

Though, should they attempt that, the first will surely lunge for Dimitri.

It's a situation where tactics are more important than brawn; Dimitri looks to Allura.]

I have no idea if this works yoloooo

[It's a stalemate, and Allura's eyes snap between the training robots, and then Dimitri, making a quick assessment of the situation. Then, an idea. She doesn't know if it will work - her strength isn't what it was before she came to Aefenglom, but it's worth a try.

She hefts the staff up, and through some unseen mechanism, the weapon starts to transform. A lance.]

Get down!

[And she lines it up, throwing the spear in an attempt to pass through the first one, and into the second, hopefully sailing safely over Dimitri in the process.]
