[The hit connects, loosening distance between their bodies, Connor’s LED blinking a furious yellow as data compiles itself into the cognizant choice of his next action, hemming away at a multitude of routes deemed unsatisfactory. In the end, his decision is a simple one: lurch forward to put space between himself and Daniel, then whirl on a heel while meeting the other android with a hard push of both hands to send him off the ledge.
He’s only halfway successful. By the time he’s spun around, the other practically bulldozes into him—
(impact force surprisingly high, reactions unexpectedly skewed towards combat for a PL600, Daniel’s movement should be hindered by his injured casing, pre-construction will be useless with flawed data parameters)
—and sends Connor uselessly colliding with his back against the ground, as if he were made of lead. The android lets out a grunt — the prerequisite to act human still running in the background — though pain is never an issue. Reaction time is uncompromised as he attempts to grapple with Arenvald’s arms, or bring a knee up to his gut, or anything to get this forceful presence off of him.]
