Re: IH - Lincoln, Sunset
If his suspicious tone hadn't been a giveaway, the moment the man decided to go for his gun set Bryan's course for him. He couldn't recall who Blair was - he had heard so many names recently - but Jacinta had clearly touched a nerve and the man felt a need to respond with some heat. Fortunately, their ruse had worked and she had distracted the man from seeing him crouching nearby in the shadows.
Like an uncoiled viper, Bryan sprung into action against his unsuspecting target in a blur of motion, delivering his trademark double punch to first strike the man's arm, letting his second one land wherever he could make contact. Using the moment to his advantage, he reached in to draw the man's pistol, hoping to fling it out indiscriminately to the side.
The Ranger fell back into a fighting stance that was not common on this continent, save for maybe near Shan Fan, looking both dangerous and despite his traditional Western raiment, altogether somehow foreign.

OOC:
With Quickness presumed preactivated based on the Notice roll, Bryan goes twice on his 3H, leading off with his Wing Chun double punch (aiming to do non-lethal damage):
Fighting 1: 11 (Rolled 7, Called Shot -2, Unarmed Defender +2, The Drop +4)
Fighting 2: 8 (Rolled 2, Unarmed Defender +2, The Drop +4)
Damage 1 (if needed): 11 (or 16 with raise)
Damage 2 (if needed): 11
And then trying to pull the man's gun: Opposed Agility 7 (vs. Segovia's 4)
