Redrum, Redrum, Redrum!

Medusa · 04-11-2024, 01:07 AM

Red wouldn't be the only one that would end up with a headache, nor see stars. Medusa in all her ungraceful glory and not-so-thought-out fighting ways, found herself practically holding onto her child for some stability and support as her head swam after knocking her skull with his. Even as he snapped his jaws one last time toward her, the pair were both knocked out of the game, though it seemed she would win this round, she had absolutely no doubts that he'd get one over on her eventually. He had fought hard and fought well, and she was mighty proud of her boy!

As they both swayed, Medusa steadily and slowly released her hold on him, gently holding him a bit longer so that he didn't just keel over and drop to the ground, but instead waited until he started to stumble back before she herself stumbled back and tried to fight the raging dizziness and headache that began to blossom. Man...she really had to be careful with that one! Maybe she was the way she was because she kept rattling her brain one too many times in a fight. But hey, it was an effective move here and there. No need to fix what ain't broke, right?

“Redrum– is sorry, mother. Red- is still not– strong- enough.” Her ears cocked toward him as she gathered herself, and while her head was still swimming, she knew she was more tolerable to the pain then he was. It tugged at her heart, however, when he said that. Instead of frowning, she tugged her lips up into a smile as she haphazardly lurched forward (as she was still a bit dizzy) and brought her head over his neck as she hugged him (and to hold herself up because she swore she was about to fall over)! "Red is very strong! He showed Medusa that today, and she has seen how hard he has been trying." She pulled back, letting herself fall heavily on her rump so that she was sitting now. "Medusa is very, very proud of him. He has shown Medusa that he is more than good enough! Red fought well, and Medusa needs him to know that he is not a failure." She reached forward to place a motherly kiss on his muzzle, and hoped that he understood that she meant every word. She didn't know about his ongoing feelings about his past trauma, but she'd be damned if her own child felt like he wasn't good enough because of it!
