Parries Nailbiter's protrusions

Nailbiter was keeping her eye out for me. In the midst of this kind of chaos, with this many witnesses, she couldn't go for the lethal strike, but she could interfere.

Brutes had a way of gravitating toward Brutes in a fight. It was a kind of weird rock-paper-scissors thing, where rock tended to favor smashing rock.

I used my forcefield to swat aside Nailbiter's claws. So soon after the conversation with Sveta, to bring it out and be acutely aware of it, to think briefly of the hospital, it was disorienting. It made the moment dark.

More of Nailbiter's claws shielded Love Lost, keeping me from getting to her and pulling her free. Not directly. I saw Love Lost lower her head and raise her more intact clawed foot. She was using it as another hand.
