Word By: TimidBookworm; Drawback
There are many advantages to being a shell-back. When landing on said back, your spine is more easily protected so the fall doesn't hurt as much, plus its a great move to simply turn your back for the few seconds it will take for a weapon to bounce off the hard surface, then to simply finish the turn with a striking blow.
However, with all assets, there are drawbacks.
Balancing on two legs is a lot harder than you would think, constantly walking around with all that extra weight. It probably took us an extra year longer to figure it out, though I wouldn't really know for sure There's also that regular irritation of whenever we need to go out in public, its really difficult to blend in, we have to wear clothes that are way too big, which still makes us stand out. The worst however, has got to be not being able to properly lay on your back. It just feels unnatural and exposed.
Then again, who am I to complain, I've got a built in defense shelter, just one of the many things to love about being a turtle.
To my most faithful reviewer, TimidBookworm, I thank you sincerely for your continued support. To everyone else who continues to read, favorite, alert, and especially review, don't you wish you had shells?
