"...It's just teamwork," Id responds after a significant pause in which he puzzles over what pushed the guy's buttons. Though he is relatively new to fighting alongside others rather than being the heavy called in to topple groups of enemies on his own, Id has had some practice. Covering for someone isn't a reflection of strength or weakness, only a matter of who is able in the moment. "This thing's more fit for a shield, right now."
He shifts the hilt of the greatsword in his grip, tipping the blade as indication. Dull as it has proven to be, it only makes good sense to him that he take up defense if the other man can attack more effectively — and he clearly can. It's just efficient, isn't it?
Maybe he's too accustomed to people who have some understanding of one another in a fight. Even the other generals knew what he was doing, knew what they were all doing, because they'd trained with him for years. They'd been his teachers, for that matter.
In any case, he moves right on from it. Now he knows this guy is capable of landing a killing blow, and that's essential for their efforts. "They're more concentrated on the north side — the limbs." That suggests to him the main body must be around there.
