Nixilei and Kress jumped backwards towards the rest of the group, shrinking the space they had to move around largely. There was still enough space for the group to move around, but with a millipede on either side that distance was liable to shrink sooner rather than later if things kept up. Kat moved to slam her closed fan into one of the blade-like legs after seeing the limited success of going for the armour, expecting it to do at least some damage. Instead, it just caused the limb to spin around rapidly, eating the momentum she'd imparted to it, to turn itself into a facsimile of a blender.
*Dammit! One behind, one in front, neither of them easier to deal with. If I had two hands maybe I could try prying apart a section of armour? Should I be smacking that spot I already broke? The damned thing is slippery. Its armour protects from slashing attacks, while its large stringy body simply eats the impact from blunt force. That's not even getting onto the damned BLADE LEGS.*
