Bamboo for who? No bamboo for you! [RAID]

Rivin · 04-09-2023, 12:27 PM

Oh dear. Rivin snorted. She liked his coat – that was it. She had zero interest in any of that other stuff. He wasn’t either. This wasn’t a meeting of courtship, after all. Perhaps if she had been more experienced, she’d tried to get one of his marked body parts to take home with her. Yet, as Rivin sized the male up, she was sure that this was going to be one hell of a first raid fight. She was going into the deep end without floaties… hopefully she wouldn’t drown.

As he answered her challenge with a snarl, Rivin snarled back, claws biting into the soil. He was older, experienced, but if he thought she was going to make this an easy win, he had better think again! Her companions moved before she did, acting as guards for her flanks and an additional attack source when the time was right. Feng was growling so much the wolverine might have been mistaken for a giddy demon rather than a fighting companion.

Racing to meet Rivin’s opponent from his mistress’ left, Áskell’s right, the wolverine would seek to avoid the lifting paws and aim for the male’s back legs as he lifted himself up. The target was the lower part of his leg that Feng wanted to throw himself into with hopes of disruption the koi wolf’s balance. The wolverine was aware of the primate’s presence, ignorant to the bird, but he cared little. He was meant to act as a battering ram and nothing more. Any injury he sustained would not be of consequence in his eyes. On the koi wolf’s left, their mistress’ right, Lark was ready, but did not attack yet, on the ready to try and counter anything that came from that side.

Rivin remained in the middle, hoping to use her size to her advantage. She wasn’t as filled as she’d be when she was older, but surely their differences even now could help…? Rivin tried not to let her thoughts interfere, relying on instinct as the male reared up. The yearling tucked her chin and then sought to twist her own head, to intercept his attack not with fangs but catch him in those antlers. With that helmet of his she hoped that would be easier. Maybe between her attack and her companions she could unbalance him? The motion was more of a toss attempt than anything, but she certainly wouldn’t complain is one of her tines nicked him.

Perhaps a bit of an error, she realized, as she felt claws cut into her chest. She smelled the blood, pain flaring in the spot, but Rivin held her ground, weight distributed evenly across her limbs and center of gravity moving from her paws up into that attempted thrust. Was she even going to dislodge him? Another set of claws hooked around her left forelimb and wrapped around the back. The girl gritted her teeth. She sure as hell better hope her size could overpower him and get him off. These koi were fiesty!

"Talk," 'Think.'
