Light: the arrow flies off to the right, speeding up and fading as it goes, and a new arrow draws out from under the bubble, its head riding the end of the shaft until it stops dead at its rest point and rebounds once. Strong: the arrow pulls back first, flies off harder, and the new arrow lands with a rebound and a settle. The bubble never moves."

# Forward message animated icon

The message is sent on. Light: the arrow flies off to the right, speeding up and fading as it goes, and a new arrow draws out from under the bubble, its head riding the end of the shaft until it stops dead at its rest point and rebounds once. Strong: the arrow pulls back first, flies off harder, and the new arrow lands with a rebound and a settle. The bubble never moves.
