(Here she is putting in an honest effort while he's maybe partially trying and having fun with it. The crazy thing is? He's good. Is it possible he's holding back?)
[ Maybe a bit. Nero's still got more tricks up his sleeve but he isn't going at full strength. Part of it is also due to his own arrogance and pride, but he nods. ]
Sure, plenty of times. A weird monster plant tried to kill me back home too.
[His blade swings down a few times and releases sparks.]
(Just a couple of normal swords here, even if they're attached to her maneuvering gear. She could've sworn she heard Nero's sword revving when it somehow ignited those vines and cut through them at the same time. Gotta admit: that's impressive.
Even without any fire to work with, she's making short work of the ones trying to get close to her, her blades proving how bad an idea that is.)
My experience is with titans. They indiscriminately ate and murdered people; they could only be killed by a deep cut on the nape of their neck.
We were nearly done routing them before I found myself here. The rest of the battle is up to them.
(There are good people back there who needed the push and Mikasa did what she could for them. Armin has a good head on his shoulders and there are other strong fighters there besides her. They'll be fine.
Oh yeah. It stinks I have some unfinished business too. [ He makes an expression of discomfort when fighting. Why do these vines have to be so grabby?? Nero doesn't like that. ]
Got bitch slapped in the face by some angry demon and I ended up here. I'll never be able to let that one go now. [ He tries to help Mikasa clean up on her side.]

Try roasting them with fire.

[Nero's expression is just twisting away into anger. He takes it out on the vines, cutting them down]
Good thing you bagged those assholes and showed them who's boss.
[Mikasa knows where it's at. She's strong enough to take down a titan. So Nero can trust her to take care of herself in a fight.]

Or so she hopes)Were you mid-battle before arriving here, too?

You can take a break if you feel tired.
