break me down, build me up

Malalia was polite enough, which he appreciated. Though Corvus was far from the best conversationalist, he always tried to show a relatively friendly demeanor, especially when it came to wolves who weren't his packmates. He needed to give a good impression of Abaven, after all. He'd been raised to be respectful and kind, even toward strangers, unless they meant to be a threat... and this female clearly didn't. He grinned as she moved around him, as if sizing him up, and he let his head twist in an attempt to follow her lead.

When she came barrelin gby him from the side, he was far too close to dodge her attack completely. He stepped to his right, just enough to extend the distance between them a bit further and force her to move an extra step to meet him there. Her teeth grazed the skin where his left forelimb met his side, and he felt a sting blossom there as she dove behind him. Unwilling to let an opponent out of his sight completely, he made to rip his right hindleg out of her grip, twisting to face her head-on. Hopefully his size would work to his advantage - he tended toward using his brute strength rather than swiftness, which was what he did now as he made to rush her to wrap his front limbs around her neck, pushing down toward the ground.
