Seeing as the opening blows had been exchanged, Glaukos, activated his semblance. It was the only way he was going to be able to be able to block as well as be able to react to the attacks that Elise was going to be doing given that his large shield covered his ability to see.

When Elise had changed her ring blade into its chakram, doing a spin, chucked it at Glaukos' legs, he naturally brought his shield down to block the spinning blade. Three sounds could be heard, the sound of hoplon shield impacting the ground, as Glaukos had been trying to get it to go down, without caring for when it would stop, and the sound of the chakram impacting the shield, causing it to vibrate slightly. The last sound was that of Glaukos swearing, as the force of the chakram, forced his shield back a little ways, causing him to elbow his own knee. On the monitor, his aura went down by a sliver.

Glaukos raised his eyebrow in more then a little confusion at this. She has to know I was going to block it....why would she throw one of her weapons at me, if she has to physically pick it up.

The purpose of this match was not for Glaukos to win per se. If it was, the next action was to clearly take possession of Elise's weapon and charge her. But this WAS a friendly sparring match between partners, and in Glaukos' eyes to see how much Elise could actually dish out. One thing is for sure, we need to figure out how to make it so she isn't disarmed as easily.

Glaukos held out his hand to signal a pause in the match, before picking up Elise's thrown chakram and tossing it to her lightly, clearly not an attack. As she caught it, he tensed, readying himself for the next bout of attacks from her. He was far more proficient in melee, and while he could probably over power Elise, it'd be better to prolong the match as long as possible. So he was going to do what he does best, and counter attack to whatever strategy she came up with. That WAS his fighting style after all, take the brunt of the attack with either the leiomano or hoplon and then counter attack with the other.
