Wax on, wax off

Levaithi was quick to heed him and adopted a defensive stance. Slowly Valentine began to circle him, eying the defenses he had chosen. Noting the boy's level tail as he stood behind him, the brute commented, "A commonly adopted defense. An alternative to it would be to tuck your tail. I realize that some would view this as a cowardly gesture, but if you're tall like me, your belly makes for an easy target." Speaking from experience, he said, "In a fight appearances meant little. Fight to win, not to look good. Fight dirty, fight smart, fight however you want. Just fight to win."

Stopping in front of the boy once more, he met Levaithi's eyes. "Something else you might want to consider is lowering your head. Depending on the opponent, your throat might be a target." Silently Valentine ticked through a mental checklist of defenses. There were many possibilities, many scenarios where certain defenses were more beneficial than others. "Try not to get into the habit of using the exact same defenses over and over. Tailor them to your opponent."
