Closed A Tour Guide on the Small Side (Naira)

[Sliver]

The wolverine stood there, both arms incapacitated by her opponents grasp, pain obvious in the bear's gaze, though not true pain, just annoyance. This wasn't exactly the original plan, but in a fight you could never just expect every move was going to go off without a counter response from one's adversary. The wolverine grunted in discomfort as her arms were shifted into positions counter intuitive to movement. It was clear Naira was tiring, and the wolverine would be lying if she said she wasn't weary from this combat as well. Clearly it was time to end the match. Hoping to do just that Sliver yanked on Naira, wrenching her arms to the side. She was attempting to use the bear's grasp of her to her advantage, trying to throw her to the ground where Sliver would throw the entirety of her weight upon her opponent in order to pin her to the ground and end the combat, curious to see how the bear would respond defensively.

Naira wasn't surprised when Sliver was smart enough to use her irritation to her advantage. She was actually just too tired to really care anymore, and allowed herself to get thrown to the ground, obviously letting herself lose, now. Though she wasn't going to get all of Sliver' weight on her. Her stomach was upset, and she was afraid if she had the wolverine on her stomach that she'd just upright puke everywhere. "You win, Slick," she put her hand up, telling the Kelvic not to get on her. Smiling, she pushed herself up. Now it was getting to her. Her arms were wobbly, her collarbone bleeding, her face bruised, her palm bleeding as well. She held out her hand, to shake Sliver's. "That was fun, but I think I'm done for now." she was breathing kind of heavy, but it was already calming down all over and she was just sore.
"I almost had you, there," she winked. Her first real practice battle was one of a kind, she thought. It was either that, or it was just the fact that it was her first which made it so special to her. Despite her lack of confidence, she grinned and said, "I think I was a good match. Right?"

[Sliver]

Sliver backed off of the bear as she held up her hands. She took a few chimes to calm her heart rate, breathing heavy. A splitting headache began pulsing in the front of her head from the punch she had received right to the nose and her teeth were stained with blood from the dribble down that had occurred. The bear had pushed her around quite a bit, and she was sure a few bruises were in order. "Yes, that was very good, even though you gave up like a wet towel in the end." Her tone was jabbing, but clearly in jest, and she chuckled a bit to herself, always one to appreciate her own jokes even if no one else did. She offered Naira a hand up. "There are a bunch of bears around that can patch you up, you'll want to be cleaned and bandaged up for tomorrow when the real fun begins, but I think you're ready." Her words were serious. Naira seemed flighty, giddy and a bit bizarre, but Sliver already liked the quirky bear and most importantly couldn't wait to see where she was headed in the watch. WIth that and a few other cursory instructions that might help the young Kelvic, Sliver brushed herself off and walked slowly back towards the barracks, she decided to get herself cleaned up since it was almost time for those sprints. She grinned wryly to herself, thinking that perhaps a training bout hadn't been the most clever idea when such an intense work out was only a short time away, but she shrugged and went to see to her nose, any pain she would feel in the morning would be worth the enjoyment this day had brought.

[Naira]

Naira grinned, at the reference to a "wet towel". She nodded. I doubted that you wanted puke on you as well as blood, but she certainly didn't say it out loud. It was sort of a rude remark that she'd rather keep to herself. "Yeah," was all she said. She was flattered, not really expecting Sliver to say she was actually okay. She listened to the humour that Sliver found so funny, and found herself smiling at the fact the Kelvic thought she was so funny.
"Alright then." she said, looking around. She would say that she was planning on going and asking to get all patched up, but she knew deep down that it was the least of the things she wanted to do. She'd much rather just head back to her quarters, and sleep. Having this been more of a day to learn than to work, she doubted that anyone would care if she caught up on sleeping. She woke even earlier than she was supposed to that morning, eager to go.
She turned and sat down for a few minutes, watching Sliver leave to tend to herself. She was still giddy whenever she left the building, too, to go sleep until the next morning.

Witty Remark Here

This was an interesting view into the life of the Icewatch and I enjoyed seeing Naira and Sliver interact. Naira, please contemplate making your posts longer for future threads. As well, Naira, please keep in mind your skill level. Your unarmed is not competent, so it is doubtful you would have been planning ahead in such an intense fight.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding your grade, please send me a PM and we can figure it out.
