It seems that Oliver's attempts were indeed very futile. Honestly, it was a lack of wit on his part, seeing as he should've realized that attempting the same maneuver wouldn't work if it hardly even worked the first time. It was mostly a lack of variety and him simply not knowing that he had more options than just that. For now, it was too late and Deimos was very quick to respond to his attack.
Oliver's mind was preoccupied with latching on, so much that he missed the next attack completely. Powerful paws came down on him, causing him to let go and tumble to the ground. Letting out a growl, he tried to wiggle his body around and use his paws to grasp at him, trying to shake off the tiger who had managed to shove him to the ground. His mind had run out of things and he was growing steadily more nervous for some unknown reason, which was absolutely penetrating their bond.
