Kotori keeps his ears flat against his skull and his tail between his legs to keep both from being easy targets. The fur on his neck was scrunched up to protect him from his enemies' jaws.  Kotori kept his eyes squinted as protection from this exact scenario of jaws coming for his muzzle.  As Corbie's teeth strike at his face, Kotori tucks his chin further down and toward his chest which causes his horns to stick up to help defend his head.  Kotori’s paws were planted evenly, aligned with his shoulders to allow for good balance.  

Kotori pushes his weight into his hind end, body moving backward just a fraction which is enough to stop the worst of the damage from Corbie’s bite.  Her teeth connect to the middle of Kotori’s muzzle and slash down near the left side of the nose, leaving behind a trail of blood and a wound deep enough that it will leave a scar

The kinkajou takes advantage of Kotori being distracted and rushed in to strike. Kotori pivoted his hind end to his right to try and avoid the worst of the attack but the claws still struck twice along his left flank, right before the left thigh.  The claws thankfully are not overly long so Kotori’s fur coat offered some defense but the sharp claws still cut through Kotori’s flesh but failed to damage the muscles beneath.  The step would also have him facing where Corbie had been standing as she had attacked his muzzle.

Kotori liked his head being lower than his opponents because it let him attempt a two-pronged attack.  Kotori kept his injured muzzle down even as he jerked his neck up, aiming to jab his horns under Corbie’s jaw near the base of her neck.  Kotori twisted his head at a ninety-degree angle to the right in a smooth motion to bite the underside of her neck, attempting for a firm grip on the neck that he could press his weight into.
