Goodnight, Sleeptight, Don't let the dead bite

Perhaps all of her work had been futile in trying to forcefully convince him to release her; maybe deep down she'd known the whole time that her right paw was going to be out of order after this match. Her breath nearly completely escaped her and almost refused to return as his pressure multiplied and she felt her toes break, one by one, with a series of sickening snaps. In return she also tried to tighten her grip, no longer wishing to merely injure, but hopefully maim. She barely felt his claws irritating the skin past her thick fur, leaving slight scratches but nothing more. This time when he attempted to bring her down, she was in too much pain to counter it and she went down. As he pushed and she fell to the right upon her side, she still did her best to keep her grip firmly and relentlessly on his muzzle, craning her neck to reach and propping up her upper body with her left limb as she regained a sense of where the ground was. Jupiter felt herself dizzying from the pain and didn't trust herself to let go or else she might not have been able to find another target in her daze.
It would be her turn to thrash and should she still have a hold on the vulnerable area she would amplify her force as he release her paw, keeping the injured appendage tucked against her stomach for protection. Jupiter herself would now be the one to thrash, attempting to jerk the weight of her body to her left and then to the right, and upon the last stroke to the right she would suddenly drop to hopefully hang upon him, centering her weight forward to put it all behind the pressure of her grip and removing her left leg so it would not subtract from the weight. Knowing that this would cause her to lose her grasp if he found some way to have his head tilt from her mass, she released it on her own, still a little disoriented but being able to track his movements well enough to understand what he was likely going to do.
With Jupiter no longer clutching the brute with her teeth, the celestial woman dropped to the earth, bracing herself only by bending her left leg and using it as a support. She stooped about a half foot above the ground and then threw her own body leftwards as he threw his own right, hoping to trip him since her lowered collective height reached only up halfway past his knees. She sincerely hoped that he would fall sharply and directly onto his side and lose his breath long enough for her to react but Oddity had already proved to be a painfully challenging opponent. The woman knew she could not stick around long after the fight--the excruciating pain in her paw was near-crippling, dulled only by the adrenaline coursing through her veins.
Out of habit, her neck was still scrunched and her ears were still pinned, just in case he had enough time to react and try and make a grab at either. Her eyes were narrowed as well considering that the brute seemed to have a tendency for grabbing or flailing and she wished to preserve her optics should a stray claw come too close. Tail was thrown even and her left paw was still tucked firmly to her chest for protection. Shoulders were still tucked forward and her shoulder blades were hidden under her fur, her head lowered and tail out even.
It was just then that the magnitude of this challenge for Ludicael hit her. She had been pampered--spoiled almost--in the years that her reign had gone uncontested. Her children, her friends, her lover... they were all important to her and all of that was now at risk of being taken away. Determination surged within her heart and, whether her attack would work or not, at the end of her movement she would attempt to execute a single-turn roll to cushion her momentum and begin the early stages of it, well on her way to rising as soon as possible, evening her weight to the best of her abilities upon three paws.
jupiter vs. oddity for ludicael
ATTACKS: Still attempting to hold on to his muzzle. Jerks her head left, and then right, and then on the latter she drops her weight suddenly, pulling up her left leg to try and do as much damage to the bridge of his maw before finally releasing it. As he throws himself to the right, she stoops and throws her weight similarly to the left, trying to trip him.
DEFENSES: Shoulders forward, shoulder blades down, eyes narrowed, ears pinned, tail even, injured paw tucked to her chest for protection.
INJURIES: Has a painful, 1/4th-inch-deep wound on the upper top of her neck that will likely scar. Painfully broken toes on her right paw. Has wide cuts/gouges on top of her right paw and ankle, as well as her pads cut in a couple of places, from where his teeth dragged down her flesh. Minor scratches on her chest from his claws.
OOC: Yaaaay! Finally done. c: It was nice fighting with you~

All at once the male withdrew, berating himself. Under normal circumstances, not even his submission would have prevented her from attempting to bring more pain upon his existence, but the severe injuries inflicted upon her horridly broken toe was not a normal circumstance. She hobbled backwards uneasily, doing her best to support her weight with her three legs, audits forward so she could listen past the pounding of blood in her temple but other defenses still set and wariness in her narrowed eyes. Celestial gaze followed him closely as he communicated to the other fae that he had arrived with and for the first time took full notice of her onlookers. Confusion briefly crossed her features before it was cleansed from her countenance and she raised her chin slightly, still eyeing the brute, naturally wary of his quick retreat.
Oddity departed and she allowed for it. When a good amount of distance was thrown between them she immediately plopped her rear onto the earth, examining her paw. It was bad--really bad. She swallowed hard and looked up at Symphony. "Symph?" she managed, feeling the adrenaline wearing off and the pain beginning to pierce the haze of hormones. Her timbre was glazed with relative agony and the woman sounded weaker than any present had probably ever been close to hearing her before. All she knew was that she got to keep Ludicael, and that she needed immediate treatment.

Oh, the battle would end, and the serpent would immediately move herself towards the russet queen. The foe was defeated, just as she had predicted, but the midnight mistress was a portrait of concern. She moved quickly, hoping to press herself into Jupiter?s side, but leaving plenty of room for Symphony to work. ?Does it hurt badly?? she asked, a simple question that had an obvious answer. Medusa was not good at these sort of things, but she wanted to be attentive. She hated to see her sun battered, but there was little that could be done about it. ?Alena lost Amenti,? she informed her russet lover, perhaps at an inappropriate time, but it was the first she?d been able to speak of the news to her obsession.

The midnight mistress that was her mate pressed close and Jupiter leaned lightly upon her, making a move to bury her features into the fur of her lover's neck. Jupiter's eyes closed and she focused on evening her bleeding and controlling the state of her consciousness. The woman had never broken a single toe before but to have most of them brutally snapped was making her head spin. She focused on the warm body pressed against her, bringing the rise and fall of Medusa's chest to the forefront of her attentions and clinging onto the small details of her presence. "It doesn't hurt as much with you here," she whispered gently, swallowing hard.
Another bit of dialogue reached her audits and she made an attempt to pull away, using her left leg to hop just a bit to put distance between their dials so she could try and stare her mate in the eyes. Surprisingly enough, a bit of moisture shown in her own celestial optics and her ears tipped back at the slightest. "Come to Ludicael. Bring them all. Your children, Deteste, Alena, everyone. I need you back, my serpent." She had not felt as vulnerable and almost desperate as she did now since she was a child. While her previous dialogue had been loud enough for their audience to hear, she now dropped her volume to barely a husky murmur. "I wish to dance in the moonlight with you again, my love." Emotions welled inside of her, making her pain seem much less detrimental and allowing for her to gather enough words to speak.

And focus on Medusa, she did. Her conscience latched on to every aspect of her presence and the feel of their pelts against each other, of their breathing and the wonderful fact that, despite the odds, they were both alive and their hearts beat with great fervor. Jupiter held no grudge against Ludicael's healer, as she had not been informed of the woman's dire mistakes. Jupiter hardly felt the administrations being delivered to her as she kept her focus strictly on singular things. As her hobble back towards Ludicael began, she turned and craned her neck just long enough to individually meet the eyes of every Ludicaen present and smile before exiting.
