[A flock of golden birds fly across the sky.]

:(

……he needs to see a doctor, but…

[They trail off.]

[feathery-bitch]

👋

…hi

[feathery-bitch]

how are you two?

……not great

[feathery-bitch]

🫵

…?

[feathery-bitch]

[They are sitting with Byrrus, who is currently asleep, leaning against them.]

[feathery-bitch]

[I put all my weight on her leg, in one final attempt to fully break it, before letting go and taking a few steps back.]

Next time, maybe don't fight someone who is ripping off limbs with their bare hands.

[And with that, I leave, disappearing into the woods.]

Hello? I heard screaming, is someone—?

[He sounds mildly concerned until he sees what’s going down, causing him to stop in his tracks]

-@the-eternally-ticking-clock

[She is lying on the ground, screaming, as her arm is pulled on by someone. The skin is already beginning to tear, slowly, and it is very visibly dislocated.]

[feathery-bitch]

[I bite at his arm as I continue to bend his leg backwards, tightening my grip.]

[feathery-bitch]

…oh……

[The bird hops up on his shoulder, chirping.]

[The bird hops down onto the ground, tweeting, trying to get Feather to follow it.]

[feathery-bitch]

That is not the comeback you think it i-

[The kick lands, dislodging a few crystals. The smell of rot fills the air, and something black drips from what was once a nose.]

OW! FUCK!

[I hold her leg with both hands, while I put my foot on her thigh, and begin attempting to bend her leg the wrong way with all my strength.]

[feathery-bitch]

[As he falls, my claws drag against his arm, leaving cuts that, while not as deep as the ones on the other arm, are still fairly serious.]

Hm. Well, I guess it can't be helped that you don't have sense!

[I try to catch her leg — I don't care which, as long as I grab one — and hold it in place.]

[feathery-bitch]

[I swing my leg under her, in an attempt to make her lose her balance, as I grab on to her other arm with my free hand.]

You sure you won't regret this?

[I have a shit eating grin on my face.]

[feathery-bitch]

[That was… honestly kind of dumb. She just gets herself cut on the crystals. I am literally made of rock, what was that supposed to do.]

[Anyways! I slowly drag my claws down his arm, leaving thick, deep gashes down the length of it.]

[feathery-bitch]

Oh shit-

[I fall backwards into the tree, multiple small crystals breaking off from the impact, falling to the ground, while Dahlia does her best to run away in the commotion, tripping and almost falling multiple times.]

Well, if that's how you want to be!

[I grab on to her arm, right below the shoulder, digging my claws in.]

I'll make sure you regret it.

[feathery-bitch]

……can you not talk?

[The bird hops down onto the ground, tweeting, trying to get Feather to follow it.]

[feathery-bitch]

[I laugh.]

Lots of things. You should have seen the other guy! Damn, how long ago was that…

[She grabs my foot with her remaining arm, weakly trying — and failing — to push me off.]

Now, do you want to die, or do you want to fuck off?

[They slowly let go, backing away to look at him.]

…i… jesus, are you… ok??
