Falling back purely on instinct, Joli fell into the graceful and elegant dance that made up the artform of Freeblade combat.  Her thigh raised up, dancing away from the goblin's strike, her moonsilk gown flowing around her as she spun, exposing her genitals for only a fraction of a second before she landed on that foot.  Her body came down low following the twirling leap, her blade falling in the familiar 'branch cracking at the trunk' manuever.  Her scimitar was a perfect weapon for this manuever, the curve of the blade perfectly mirroring the curve of the weapon swing.  Her body was already thinking ahead to the next few moves as well.  "Rising wind" followed "branch cracking at the trunk" and was then followed by the "Sweeping wind."  Through all of this her body remained in movement, never standing still even if she didn't move more than a few inches in any direction.<br/><br/>The concept that all three of these strikes might miss wouldn't ever even occur to her, because she was now in the clear calm center of a storm that whirled around her.  That storm, her body and her blade, and woe betide anyone within her reach.<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">I trust you to make attack and damage rolls.  It will save a lot of time over having to use the die roller.  What I did there was basically say that she's going to attack the goblin till he's dead.  She's already thinking ahead of the next two rounds, incase she misses with her attack this round, she's going to attack again for at least two more rounds (or until it's dead obviously) </div></div>
