[ Juniper's brow hitches up at that contact; she had been expecting the tendril to feel more... plantlike, a vine of sorts, so that clank! is most peculiar and intriguing indeed! On top - naturally - of the fact that said tendril then reshapes itself into Shadow's head. Cool. Oh, what an interesting opponent— opponents</> she is facing! ]
I— Maybe! But I won't forget again!
[ There is about a 50% chance she will forget again.
Juniper plants her feet firmly in her stance once more, readying herself to take the blow. In a team, it is her job to take the hits, to be steadfast and sturdy so that those with abilities more akin to V's can focus on delivering damage. But in a one-on-one (two-on-one) like this, she has to think differently. Conjured beings like familiars are worthy opponents indeed, and can certainly turn the tide of a battle, but in the end they are not the main opponent. And from her experience, the one sure way to fell such beings...
...Is to target their master. She must remember this, she must stay focused on this....
...Maybe after playing with the kitty just a little bit. She wants to test her skills against Shadow too, after all, and so she first lunges forward to meet the kitty head-on once more. Knowing now that the tendrils are much tougher than initially thought, she won't try to slash away at them, but instead she'll swing her axe and try to harness her wild magic once more—
And this time, when she teleports, she ends up directly beside Shadow, right within striking distance! ]
Ah, it worked!
[ And then she will try to take a swing at the panther! ]
