She has a little pouch full of needles. She was probably going to need as many as she could spare.

I've been slowly realizing that I feel a tad powerless sometimes." Enya says, holding her arms behind her back. "So I thought a good way to get my poison out without disrupting my friends would be to throw them like darts!"

If you throw at someone's face, you could easily catch them in the eye. The hands, well, usually they're constantly in motion, making it pretty difficult to ever hit someone there."

At least, not permanently." Jack smiles, setting up the bullseye so it stands against the tree more solidly, then backing away. "Alright. First, throw how you think you should at the bullseye, and try to hit the center." Back to Top   Eithne Reagan Mentor Intelligence I assure you I mean well.

"Now, like I said before, I'm a little rusty in using needles specifically, but this is the proper way to hold it. Then, you throw with your body weight, giving it more power and making it much more likely to pierce." Jack mimes the action once, slowly, to let Enya see the motion, before doing it full speed. The needle sinks into the wood, a little to the right of the bullseye's center. Back to Top   Eithne Reagan Mentor Intelligence I assure you I mean well.

Jack reaches into his pocket, pulling out a handful. "These, knives, or axes are all more of my style. I also tend to attach wires to some of them so I can re-use them after I've thrown them, but I do get some help from my power to do it." « Last Edit: Nov 12, 2015 21:27:54 GMT -6 by Jack Makaila » Back to Top   Eithne Reagan Mentor Intelligence I assure you I mean well.

Jack chuckles. "I don't recommend them too much, or blades in general. Everything you need, you can probably get out of a needle, if I had to guess."

"They're big enough to be useful for close quarters too." She would go over Jack's movements in her mind before mimicking the movement surprisingly well! The power behind it however, and her ability to let go of the needle, were a tad lacking.
