Tamsyn appreciated that Dunkan tried to use a bit of surprise to gain the upper hand by launching his attack without much warning. Had she not already been waiting for him to make his first move this could have been incredibly effective. As it was, her eyes followed him as he darted side to side while she tried to guess which direction he would actually attempt to connect with her form from. The deceptive movements took away a bit of her reaction time and successfully made it so that she couldn't fully avoid his attack. She was quite calculating with how she approached fights and how she reacted to them, which did mean that sometimes it took her a heartbeat too long to process what she should do.

She used her lighter weight and smaller frame to her advantage and used the sandy terrain under paw to more quickly and easily turn as he attempted to move to face her side, keeping herself facing him head on rather than let him get that perpendicular angle he seemed to be going for. She leaned back into her more sturdy hind legs to keep herself from toppling under his weight as his forelegs came down around her shoulders. Luckily, with the change in angle, she was able to throw her head back and block his jaws from getting a hold on her scruff - instead aiming to hit the top part of her skull firmly into his cheek or lower jaw to hopefully stun him a bit and keep him from trying to grab her scruff again. She also lifted one of her forepaws and aimed to press it into the upper part of his chest, right below where his throat began, so that she could possibly give him a firm shove to knock him back off of her again. The General let her nails dig into his skin as well if she was able to get her paw to his chest successfully just to add a bit more discomfort and emphasis to that shove.
