Re: Cassandra vs Shimmerlace: The Taming of the Beastie

“HISSSSSS!” went the cat.
“HISSSSSS!” went Shimmerlace.
Low to the ground, the cat backpedaled towards the ringpost, but Shimmerlace bore her own fangs and raised her claws (and spray bottle) and got down low and stable-like. Growling, muttering, she wiped from her face and neck and ears and hair the sticky saliva of a dozen kisses, and she searched for a road to the beastie’s throat.
Shimmer paced — shift left, dodge right — several arms’ length from the corner, just outside her enemy’s deadly reach. The bottle had saved her once—but twice? A second daft move would be on her own head.
But shifting and dodging would soon look cowardly, so the Seelie Scion exploded towards the untamed wildling in two motions, one with her arm, an arc that pulled the spray bottle back, then up over Shimmer’s head and TOSS—the bottle shot at the left side of the cat’s face. The second PUMP was in Shimmer’s legs. She darted towards the nyan-face monster, PUMPED toward’s Cassy’s right arm, hoping the cat would be distracted and Shimmer could GRAB her sweet, furry wrist.
And if the feychild got the feral arm, what then? Well she’d duck through the ropes YANK it around the ringpost and hold it and streeeeetch it, of course! Maybe then snugglepuff here would hiss a bit in a more submissive sorta register.
