Fall Back! vs. Brazen Disregard

L5R CCG Rules board, 8 April 2015 to 9 April 2015

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing.

Fall Back!: Move home your target Personality. As he moves, straighten his unit and you may straighten one of your other units (at any location).

Brazen Disregard: Absent Interrupt: If the action is from a Strategy, negate any movement from its effects.

Since i am not a native Speaker this could be a stupid question:

If Brazen Disregard is used on Fall Back the straighening part does not happen for the first target. What happens to the second one?

It does not straighten the second target either. "As he moves" is the trigger for both straightening effects, so if he does not move, they do not straighten.
