[D does not realize right now he will have his sword later, but when that time comes, he will be SO GLAD to finally have it back because of instances exactly like this.
The shot between the chitin actually isn't a bad one at all. It makes the wasp hella mad, but it was not a terrible shot, D thinks, as someone who frequently throws thin stake spikes by hand.
For today, he'll have to be the usual melee tank. As soon as the wasp turns toward Liem, D lunges quickly out to grab another one of its remaining five legs. He steps back with it latched in both hands, pulling to both keep the wasp from advancing on Liem and also... just not ashamed of attempting to rip it right out of the wasp's body.
Before the leg can come out, the wasp's beating wings start lifting it up off the flower. D digs his heels into the petal below him; he's worried if he just lets the wasp go, it will not only have air advantage, but retaliate.
But holding on means he is now being slowly lifted up into the air. GOODBYE.]
