I would imagine that knocking the gun would give enough time for other people to jump in....

And, well, he could knock it to the side. Or they could duck....

Kiyoshi isn't going to let you kill Connor, not a chance in hell. Sakura fired first because you provoked her, as far as Kiyoshi is concerned that is quite reasonable.
Provoked? I never even aimed it at her. I gave her a warning to back off, and when she decided to open fire I responded in kind at my original target.

The reaction time issue is still a thing here, and hitting it to the side does the same damn thing, that barrel could swing anywhere, most likely onto Sakura or Taiga or still on Conner. This is absurdly close range here, jarring it is not the best option.

You aimed at Connor, who is Sakura's friend. It is entirely reasonable for her to act to protect him.

And, hitting it to the side makes him miss to that side. As long as there is no-one stood in that direction it is fine.

Yeah, we probably need her to resolve this....

OK.
Here's the thing - this is a short ass shotgun barrel wise. As in, the hand grip is pretty much next to it. Knocking it off target to the side isn't gonna happen to the extent that you want. At best, you probably just got Sakura's arm blown off, at worst Connors arm and a nice chunk of his chest.

Angra took the blast and has wolves, she can take more bullets then you have arch, Lawrence lost no resolution needed.

Again, let Elf decide. I'd say this is firmly in GM ruling territory here, so let's just end the discussion for now until she has her say, is that clear?

Besides running the forum, I can provide avatars for people as well~
This is my mod voice. ...Most of the time anyway.

Well, it only needs to be knocked by about 6 degrees or so to make it miss, I think he could manage that.

Still, Lantz has resolved it anyway, so it doesn't matter now.

Haha no. We're going to need Elf to sort this shit out and otherwise people are going to die. And it's likely going to include Lawrence, but he at least can get better.  Also, he's a sin eater. AHAHAHA THANKS FOR THE FREE PLASM BITCH, THEM WOLVES BE TASTY.

Right.  Of course Lantz ignored that but he can always just delete that post.

Lantz posted before Alice did, so I don't see any problem whatsoever.

...Yeah, didn't notice lantz's post, sorry. ...that's. Uh. I hate to say it lantz, but that seems to be more than a bit of a stretch. Like a major stretch.

Again, wait for Elf. Let her decide. Like I said, this is firmly in GM ruling territory now.

This was firmly in GM territory after that shot and argument. Wait for Elf.

Alright, from here on out, no more discussion on this specific topic (IE: Law vs. lantz's charas and Kiyoshi) until Elf gets in here. Otherwise I may have to get a bit firm.

Game will be dead in the water for two hours or so. I think that sucks since the fight literally held no point whatsoever.

Well, I was going to be going to bed pretty soon anyway, and we'd have needed to wait for Elf to answer the door, so I don't think we lost much.
