As brief as the reprieve might be, the rush of power is a welcome one. Light surges, circuits brightening as small cracks seal and larger instabilities are fixed in place. Rinzler is a creature of code, electricity shaped to form and function. And Rinzler's function is to fight. With sufficient energy to draw him together, there's very little harm he can't ignore in the short term.
All of which makes the next attack less than surprising. Rinzler lifts his hand clear, snatching the returning disk and slamming it back, aiming to embed the cable deeper in the wrecked device. If he's lucky, maybe it will hit a power main and fry itself. If he's not, the tug might still off-balance the virus. His body spins in line with the attack, frame blading to an extended sweep. The threat regenerates most damage, but it can still be stalled. Incapacitated.
And there's one part that hasn't grown back.
If the sweep or tug do meet with success, Rinzler will follow up immediately: weight lunging forward with a vertical slash. The disk is supercharged, aim very specific: to remove that prosthetic arm completely, from its base.
