Holy shit. Things are happening fast, and she's concentrating on keeping her shield up. The very shield which Ghoul just ran right past. She barely has time to react before she's watching him jump on to- "Oh!" she manages to say just as Ghoul lands on Shakespeare's knees.

Nancy knew what a knee-cap breaking sounded like.

That was not what this sounded like. What happened instead was the force of Ghoul's jump causing the wax to react, folding in on itself, leaving one of Shakespeare's wax legs useless.

"I like Romeo and Juliet!" Nancy finds herself saying, reaching out to pull Ghoul back into the barrier. "Allison- try his head!" that would make sense, right? Because right now, Shakespeare was trying to get back up.
