It could smell worse, and Joanna's nose only wrinkles a little as she breathes in the eu de monstre.
Somehow, she hadn't expected the entire half monster to squelch like that. Surely there's a harder core to them, something that needs be combined, or destroyed separately, or... something.
More to the point, she'd expected to be swinging a sword at the grasping arms, but now that monster's jelly, and the remaining one is charging off at the others.
"Look out, it's coming!" She calls in warning, with a glance at the puddle of monster residue in case anything particularly plot-relevant shines out from it, then gives chase after the others. It's tricky with a sword in hand, but it's the same principle as carrying scissors, right? You shouldn't run, but if you do hold it out at your side with the point down, the better not to trip and on the pointy end.
And if the monster slows its roll near the others, she'll do her best to come in lopping at its arms.
