To his credit, Blank has far more sense than Zidane. He clearly notices that Soren is a male, and neither hits on him or calls him a tranny. He just grabs his sword and starts hacking away as best he can. Unlike Zidane, he has nothing besides his (really bad) physical, making him a rather notably bad light. Soren's magic peels of Blank's hide faster than it takes Cinna to get laughed at in a bar. To Blank's infinite uncredit, he is Blank and got punked down by an FE prettyboy. He won't be hitting it off with the ladies tonight, that's for sure.
