After his miss, well, missed what he set out to do, Lindsey pulled back to get ready for another blow. He also took the time to assess the other creature, who he still didn't know the name of or figured out what manner of demon he was. Not that it mattered, Lindsey had time enough to sort through the pieces later.

"Oh, I think there is. It's called being in the Game." He struck again, but this time instead of horizontally, it was a vertical slash aimed at the other's uninjured shoulder, not a good attack to duck. Lindsey was dragging this out, taking his time, and trying to remove Thane's limbs one at a time.
