Yes, so essentially, you said that he saw the flash, but he didn't. The response you posted saying, "This is where he saw it" wasn't him seeing the current flash, but remembering another flash bomb that happened in his past in a similar scenario. He's a ninja, so I doubt it's his first encounter with an explosion; so in a sense, that paragraph was me trying to add more flair (ha get it, flair?) to the roleplay. I should've used italics to illustrate that more, but since he didn't turn into a shadow, and the tone took such a shift, I assumed that it was obvious enough. I assume not though.

So, he didn't see the flash, and thus, when he cast the earth dome technique (thereby blocking the flash of light) that was when he created the shadow clone.

"He poofed into existence" Was the exact line that indicated it.
