A roguish chuckle emanated from the lips of Balthazar as he could see the reddish hue wash over the blue girl's face. He knew he should be using every second wisely, but somehow he couldn't resist this girl. When she apologized, he waved his hand to assuage her concern,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(85, 57, 130)">"Don't worry about it. I managed to give myself a fair bit of cushion to land on if the shit hits the fan. You're right though; we should keep going. How about we pair up?"</span><br/><br/>From what he had recalled, there were no rules that would specifically rule out teaming up. In fact, it seemed more likely that doing so might award them both points whilst reducing the time it took to defeat each robot. Afterall, they had to work together to defeat the OP mech, so clearly teamwork was a valued commodity. In fact, Balthazar wondered if that might be a hidden variable considering teamwork was generally a prized trait in a hero.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(85, 57, 130)">"If I'm right, it looks like you have some Stretch Armstrong quirk,"</span>Balthazar noted as he began to head toward what sounded like footprints of those large mechs.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(85, 57, 130)">"I have an idea. When we spot one, get behind me and stretch your arms out to grab one of them by the head. Pull back as far as you can and press your feet to my back. Release and kick off of me at the same time. That should produce a lot of momentum and hurdle me toward the robot. Try to line us up so that there are other robots behind us when you do it, so that we can use one setup to take out more than one of these buckets of bolts. It'll work essentially like a slingshot, but I'm going to use my quirk right before contact to obliterate them."</span>
