The Lalafell's eyes narrowed. This was it, now or never!
He may have looked as if to bash aside the shield with his own, but that was just happy coincidence for his real tactic - something far more reckless and wild. Having undone the straps on his shield arm, the crossover as in fact in preparation for throwing his shield!
"Eyah!" Chachanji shouted, launching the shield like an over-sized discus as the Hyur's head and upper body. It wasn't particularly well-aimed, so whether it would actually hit was another matter entirely, but that wasn't the point. The true purpose of the fling was as a simple, childish "made-ya-look."
Not even waiting to see if his bluff would work, the Lalafell immediately dropped into a power-slide to slip betwixt the Highlander's legs. As he passed, he sought to slash at the Paladin's shins and knees with an erratic swipe of his blade.
