Wait why would you want your shield to get smaller? Isn't that kinda counterproductive? [But then again--] Sword's pretty cool though. Something classic, right? I don't really fight with a weapon back home because I have my team but I made one here. Totally not effective for ghost fighting since you can't slice 'em and you can't shoot 'em, but still.

[What was the point again?] If you did it once you can probably do it again and that's why you're perfect bait. I promise I'm not going to let anything bad happen to you.
