Darksol88 "Right." Aden gave a nod, but in an effort to drive himself to make use of what he did have, kept his eyes closed. As he saw it, he'd still see something so long as he kept at it. Regardless, he was ready. "Alright...and one..." I said, coming over with a slow moving fist.

Keeping himself restricted to letting his senses do the work, Aden found himself having few issues yet. The speed behind the attack was manageable, the fluctuation of chi as Blizzard moved around was noticed easily enough.
A quicker move to keep the punch deflected wasn't much trouble, but he kept mindful for the movement speed. And for anything else for that matter.

As Aden pushed aside the first one, I immediately went over with my other arm. "And two..." I said. Still moving slow.

Opting to keep himself as ready as possible, Aden moved one arm back down. His other rose quickly enough to keep the next punch at bay, still keeping a good idea on the movements so far.

"Three...four....five..." I said, still keeping with the slow pace, having one punch allow to be deflected after another. "Just keep it up." I said, alternating false blows.

Aden was keeping up just fine, deflecting each of the oncoming punches. As he kept up, though, his focus became less on that and more on anything else. He was still quiet about it, for fear of breaking the concentration he had managed so far.

"One and two and three and four..."

"Right..." This was the most to come out of him, feeling he needed to say that much. He kept the pace going easily enough, focusing back on the punches to maintain a proper feel for his senses. Keeping an eye on the movements, the difference in the speed, although slight.

This time, keeping a feel for it came a little naturally. But he could tell there was some force coming behind the punches. Be it from the speed or actually putting strength behind them, he wasn't sure. Yet.
He was still good about keeping them blocked, but as he saw it, it was only a matter of time before things would start taking a turn.

He was still good about keeping them blocked, but as he saw it, it was only a matter of time before things would start taking a turn. More force was coming behind the punches, let alone the speed for that matter, and I wasn't giving any indication that it was intentional this time other than the pace of my "One, two, three, four, come on, Aden, keep it up."

"Still going, don't worry." At this point, he had figured the speed and force involved was closer to normal fare. Or closer than it had been when this was started. The gradual lack of indication served as a slight warning; he might want to expect anything to trip him up before long.

I went to send one of the blows then faked, turning around and went to do the hard back hand. Lets see if Aden blocks this one.

Out of instinct, Aden had moved to block what he thought was an incoming blow. But when things went a much different turn, with much more moving at once to lead into the back hand, he scrambled to keep from being hit. He managed to salvage his botched defense and deflect the attack, but barely.
It was at this point that he finally opened his eyes again. He had the feeling that completely relying on those senses, useful as they were, would only do so much. If he was going to keep up, he'd need to figure out how to use them in tandem at some point.

"Yea, I figured that would happen. Eyes on your opponent, man. When I said use your instincts, I meant to help you follow along with the movements. Instead, you just got on a gradual pattern with me." I said. "Again." I said. "On your guard."
