[Vivi's almost surprised when her throw connects as planned, even more so when Sanji topples. She jumps back immediately to put more distance between them, narrowly avoiding his leg sweep, and gives her Slasher line a snap to unwrap it from his ankle and pull it back. Under normal circumstances, she'd attack again now, while he was still down, but she doesn't want to cut him with her blades. She wishes belatedly she'd thought to wrap them beforehand to blunt them; she won't be able to fight at her best while taking care not to slice him.]
[Still, that first attack of his has Vivi feeling more confident than before. Whether the result of inexperience on his part, him taking similar care not to hurt her, or a combination of the two, it had been fairly sloppy. She readies her Peacock Slashers again, spinning them a bit faster, and backs up a few more steps, a smug smile quirking her lips. Hey, he's young, maybe she can psyche him out.]
[Her eyes are trained on him, and the moment he makes a move to get up, she'll throw another attack--this one not intended to connect so much as force him back and put him further off balance.]
