—! [ It's instinct, almost, the way she tenses and her hand twitches for the sword that's not by her side. She had been attentive in listening to Aang's explanations, until the sudden snowball that lands squarely in her middle.
It's not painful, but it is surprisingly; it takes her a minute to recover, then... ] I believe I have seen this. [ She just didn't know there was an actual name for it. ]
