Another lucky jump and a fast turn. Vernie gets a bit more tired than he should be. Something, as he feels, is off.

Galvren: "Pathetic!" — Just a little taunt. He's annoyed that he feels like he's fighting a possum. Fast and nimble — surpasses him in these qualities. He may not be as agile, yet the human can't match him in endurance. Indeed, Vernie doesn't seem to move as dexterously as before. Vernie is thinking: what he could do, when with another swing right behind his back, it hit him... The realisation. He remembered that Argenta was telling him to use the male form, but why? Why would he need that if his female form is as strong as the male - they're equal. Yet there's but one thing: distribution of body weight. While the boy's body is more or less balanced with that of the boy, the girl's body is not at all. Basically, two places bump out, and when he's running, creating a momentum that consumes energy that could have been used for running. Knowing that, Vernie quickly changes his form and runs towards Sasugiri, but he shows with the gestures to go away.
