Okay, Lean does actually close his eyes for the briefest of moments as the creature raises its fist, involuntarily trying to shield himself from the impact that never comes. Opening them again, he can let out a triumphant sound at his success, quite enjoying the view of the confused Eater.

However, as the potion's effects aren't exactly known for their longevity, he's quick on his feet again, trying to get out of the beast's line of sight before it considers repeating its last move. For that reason, he passes on taking any action this turn -having a lame job that doesn't allow him to do much - with Uendo assaulting the Eater from the front and Okuyasu on its back, he's going to approach it from the side.

Preferably close enough to the Chocobo. Just in case.
