Description Kinda nauseous atm///info in a little bit;;


Red Moon Tournament

-vs • Kin


・♦------------------♦・

"...Take it there's no chance of you forfeiting, Miss...?"
Saul chuckled as he said it, standing a ways across from his next opponent-an acquaintance from what seemed like ages ago, yet nowhere near what he'd remembered her to be. Indeed...Lady Kinborough (that was her name, right?) seemed more a fighter than an elementalist at that moment; held herself proudly with a spear at her side-eyes blazing in mild indignance at his slight attempt at friendly banter-

-but she was no armored knight...and there was no way in Hell he'd pit the full brunt of his strength against a lady-and an inexperienced one at that. The female paladins he served alongside with were the obvious exception, of course-but now...

Kin didn't wait for an invitation. Not a minute after the rhetoric had left his lips did a flash of blue and red cut across the sand, closing the gap with wild swings and surprising speed.

She certainly had guts...Unlike the last encounter Saul stepped back, trained a wary eye on her movements while shifting to a defensive stance-willing back a grin of admiration (in favor of a more appropriate, non-taunting frown) at the fearless barrage as he focused on defending, sidestepping, deflecting...ignoring the strikes crashing against his armor and the ones slicing dangerously close towards unprotected areas. Biding his time until an opening presented itself-the second she hesitated, or swung too widely-all of his movements centered around knocking the weapon clean from her grasp. The instances that he did attack he'd avoid her person entirely-heavy swings aimed purposefully at the staff in her arms.

She was relentless-and made up for what she lacked with sheer drive. This odd exchange presented a challenge that was wholly the opposite of the last match, and he'd need skill and more than a touch of subtlety to overcome it. A voluntary forfeit may have been out of the question, but an breaking unarmed opponent's will would be a different story.

Gosh my body picks the best time to get sick OTL
akhgakg so much messiness in one picture and idek what's up with my written portion asdfghjjkg and Lola...! I hope I didn't make Kin too unrecognizable-;//-//; I planned on having her use daggers but just really wanted to draw that spear;;;-I guess this would be moments before he tries disarming her (HE HAS A HARD TIME FIGHTING WOMEN uhm)

Sorry if I'm a bit slow with getting to my inbox, I'll answer/comment on things in the morning ;-; /slow rolls to bed

/apologizes profusely/

What was that, Saul? Was that a death wish? Do you wish to die? I didn't realize you were so keen on dying. Amalia, Chalupa, and I co-operated, for once, and made me a costume just for such an occasion.

*comes back with Bayonetta outfit, hair tied up into the bun*

Ever been punted with STILETTO PISTOLS?!

No?

MementoMoe [2012-03-05 15:08:48 +0000 UTC]

No. No. It's fine. You did great on her. Ser'yusly. You did an amazing job on the snippet and picture. And I'm so glad we did some noting for basic ideas, because in both you got her fiery desire to prove herself despite being a weaker opponent.

(And the overall gorgeous artwork. Was a pleasure "Fighting" you Rubis.)

My boyfriend just explained to me that from their poses, Kin would win o,o I didn´t get all of it, but it was something about the direction of their swings... He does medieval fencing btw XDD
