#notes. ( “TALONSLASH” ); #// they're basically like day and niiight i love them #// i just wanna say 'transforms for battle' rly just kinda boils down to him. popping his wings out if neccessary #// otherwise he's just Some Guy #// talon is funny because they've engineered him with a dash of shadow magic because they knew birds were Fragile so they thought #// that they could just force his cells to disintegrate if exposed to unwanted physical trauma so his body wasn't actually damaged #// he's kinda useless at close range but at least he's... evasive? gfjkdk #// he doesn't like it like he's well trained and could fight a man but he'll rather just snipe him. #// he's also just. RUDE. fdkjkgjfd #// silent and efficent killer aka makes sniper nests but if he's forced into the heat of it then he's #// a very dirty fighter that mostly hits-and-runs #// he also is unable to feel physical pain so if he actually gets injured it has very little meaning to him because he can't process it #// even if it could actually be lethal to him #// i also wanna say that he easily tunnelvisions on his target so it's technically easy to sneak up on him but #// u know how u just. CANNOT SNEAK UP ON A BIRD? #// THEY JUST FLY AWAY. SO DOES TALON. #// his reflexes are on point even if he's not neccessarily always paying attention. #// he's young and still learning some tricks but since he's been treated as a weapon since birth he's got a lot of his stuff that he #// was meant for nailed down #// still
