Talvi had grown somewhat colder in the past year of her life, lied to and abandoned by family it took more than blood now to keep and hold her trust. More importantly she had a new found focus within her, more so than the mind of a child eager to learn, but a wolf determined to prove herself in her own right. She was here now to learn, better herself not to make friends and whilst the wolf had done no wrong to her nor did Talvi have anything against her pleasantries were not exactly necessary. "Talvi Zaldun." She would still offer her own name but by no means in as cheery a tone as Mirabelle's own.
Formalities over it was time to get to work, that focus drove her onwards eager for the spar, mind and spirit prepared she would now set about readying her body for it as well. Her stance would widen now, toes spreading out, knees bending to lower her centre of gravity, aid her balance and ready herself to move in any direction. Instincts working perfectly her hackles would rise on their own accord and her shoulders would roll slightly now as her head pulled pack, further protecting her neck. With the placement of her head and tail, her spine aligned nicely, and now Talvi would dip her muzzle forward to protect her throat. Ears would pin themselves against her skull, and eyes would narrow to protect them from attacks as her lips pulled back and teeth exposed into a snarl. Now they were ready and it was time to attack. With Mirabelle making no move it seemed the first attack was hers to make.
Talvi would move forwards to close the distance, keeping her body low as she moved, path taking her slightly to the Mirabelle's right rather than head to head. No close enough for contact, Talvi would drive forwards and up, aiming to collide with Mirabelle's right shoulder with her right shoulder, certainly not a worthy attack on it's own the aim to knock her balance and distract her rather than injure her. Her own body would twist to Talvi's right now to create a smaller target area for Mirabelle to attack and teeth would seek to make contact with the right side of Mirabelle's neck.
