*Horace would move to dodge the first jab, stepping to the right slightly to dodge. Unfortunately, this put him in the way of the barbarian's cross punch, which would hurt like hell if he didn't do anything. Though Horace was still prepared, as such, the thief would quickly reach forward and push the barbarian's arm to the side causing it it miss. After the deflection, the elf would dodge the other jabs by taking a few steps backwards. Since the elf had moved back, the barbarian would have to reach further to hit him with the cross. If the man continues with the attack, Horace would attempt to push it to the side again and deflect. Only he would try to grab the man's hand after seeing how it'd take longer to return to his defensive position. Though if the barb didn't attack, the elf would quickly step in again and jab at the man's face.*

*The barbarian has an almost confused look on his face as Horace flawlessly dodges and deflects his attacks. He doesn't stop attacking though, and as Horace grabs his right hand, he would bring his right arm up over his head, bent at a 90 degree angle (his forearm is parallel to the ground). That pulling motion would be used to propel a left punch at Horace's ribs.*

"Shit!" 
*Horace would panic as the barbarian moved his right hand above their heads, leaving the elf open to an attack. The thief would let go of the barbs right hand as his left quickly moved towards the punch. Horace would attempt to deflect the attack again, pushing his left hand to miss his ribs. If the elf succeeds in deflecting, he'd move on to an attack. His right hand having already let go of the barb's right, reels back and attempts to crack the barb across the face in a swinging motion from the right.*
