[Midnighter isn't, strictly speaking, real big on retreats. He's a go-down-swinging kind of guy. But his pride also isn't tied up in victories; he can run if he has to, and this girl (he's pretty sure she's a girl) on the back of his horse (he's entirely sure it's his horse) is better at fighting long range. He just has to get her there.]
[He charges through other horses, men with swords, screaming knights, doing his best to maneuver and crush where he can.]
It's your job to keep these assholes off our backs. You ever heard of cover fire? [He knows she has.]

[Fucking poetic, right?]
