[It's like watching a light display, the way James's form flickers in and out in her mind. Rinka moves to parry the punch, but as she does so a memory bubbles to the surface.
Her father punches her in the gut and, for a moment, she crumples across his giant fist. "I can't watch you get hurt any more." The irony of him saying that after just punching her is not lost on Rinka. But instead of letting herself collapse, she finds the strength to reach up. "Don't you dare look down on me!" And she grabs her father's head in order to knee him right on the face.
Better be careful James, because the moment she parries that punch, Rinka's going to reflexively do the same to you.]
