Utakata had sensory abilities, but most involved his bubbles, and none allowed him to dodge a fast moving woman approaching from a blindspot. A shame about that.
His balance was excellent (and somewhat augmented by hastily released ooze at his feet) and so he merely swayed when she collided with him, hands coming up quite automatically to grip and steady her shoulders. It would be unfortunate if she collapsed and he remained standing. For one, it would draw attention he had no interest in having.
She had almost painfully bright red hair. Wasn't there a clan marked by red hair...?
"Ah...well, it doesn't matter." He took a step back from her, allowing the sticky ooze at his feet to absorb harmlessly into the ground. "As neither of us were injured, there's no need to be considered over it."
I'm torn between quips
