Until I reread the quotes, I thought your dueling should be dualing. I learned both that I was wrong, and that dualing isn't actually a word, even if duel and dual are.

However, I came up with the great idea that you could be dual-wielding cryonics quotes :)

Piercing quote in one hand, bludgeoning logic in the other. Surely nobody has resistance to both?

They may have resistance to both, but as long as it's not 100%, we can manage!

Loads of people have resistance to both. Have you never talked with a religious nut? That's when you pull out the implied threat of being made to look stupid in public and triple-wield them.

It can be tricky to pull off, but the results are very gratifying.
