[blackshadow]

[ He's backed into a wall in a cluttered room, so there's no much room for him to dodge - though he manages to avoid a completely direct hit. Groaning, his head is scrambling for a way to subdue her again without injuring her too badly. For now, he's just trying to avoid injury himself. ]

[negativegate]

[She comes at him again, looking to just get on top of him and hold him down.]

Quit struggling!

[blackshadow]

[ —Not what he was expecting. He tumbles down under her weight, only having some old books to brace himself with. ]

Hey--

[negativegate]

[Immediately, she grapples with him, attempting to get a grip and turn him over onto his stomach.]

Come on!

[blackshadow]

[ There's no way he wants to have his face to her now when she could tear out his tongue with her metal arm, so he easily obliges without a word. ]

[negativegate]

[Even so, she's not gentle about it--she forcefully shoves him into the floor, holding him down and settling her weight on him. Then she grabs for his wrists, intent on tying them together.]

[blackshadow]

Ngh!

[ Ow... He grits his teeth and lets her tie him up for now, but he keeps his head buried against the floor, hoping he can get a spell in quietly when she doesn't expect him to cast like this. ]

[negativegate]

[She figures he can't cast too easily like this as she ties up his hands using the closest thing she has--her whip. Then she reaches to grab a fistful of his hair in order to yank his head back-]

[blackshadow]

Ah-!

[ And he pauses in his spell as he does, though not enough to completely break it. Having his neck bent back like this hurts. ]

[negativegate]

I've had enough of you. You're just barely worth my time.

[She changes her grip so that she's holding his hair with her flesh hand, freeing up the stronger blastia limb.]

[blackshadow]

[ He doesn't have a choice... His heart is racing, and he really doesn't want to do this, but... ]

Flaming Arrows! [ And hopefully they can aim themselves well enough to collide with the upper part of her blastia arm. ]

[negativegate]

[Just when she was about to silence his spellcasting for good-! She jerks back, but the fiery arrows collide with her arm. Although it remains mostly intact, it's definitely damaged--and besides that, she grunts lets go of Tyr to shield her face as sparks from the spell threaten to damage her eyes, too.]

You little-!

[blackshadow]

[ Thankfully for Tyr, he thinks he just hit her arm and she's angry about it being damaged and possibly burning her skin on contact.

But either way, he doesn't waste any time in trying to toss her off so he can get away from her. Though casting the sleep spell with bound arms isn't going to be easy... ]

[negativegate]

Ugh-! Stop moving, you-!

[Distracted as she is, she falls to the side, hissing at the hot metal of her arm. Dammit--it's not moving properly, either.]

[blackshadow]

[ Seeing her fall like that makes him scared for her, but he has to keep reminding himself that she's not Rita. ]

Sorry...

[ For his Rita. For now, he needs to try getting his hands free, and he doesn't think that last trick will work as well when he has nothing to pull on but his other arm. So...wiggling out is his first option. ]

[negativegate]

[Wiggling out will probably do the trick, as the whip isn't the best tie.

She practically spits out her response-]

Shut up! I'm gonna make you pay for everything you've ruined!

[Her arm's dead weight now, not to mention hot so she can't detach it without burning her fingers. She snarls at him and tries to stagger to her feet, though the flash from the fire left spots in her eyes.]

[blackshadow]

[ He grimaces hearing that. Right now, he doesn't know the full extent of the damage, assuming her blastia arm is just hurting her. ]

You asked for this!

[ If he weren't trying so hard to get away from her, he'd take advantage of her weakness and knock her back down. Maybe tie her--

He's surprised that he can actually slip his hands out of her whip now. He quickly pulls the whip off of himself and shoves it in his pocket to use later. Now he can really cast. ]

[negativegate]

Shut up! What does a nobody like you know?!

[She turns towards him, face contorted in rage. He's caused so much damage, and she doesn't even care that it can be replaced or repaired; she's intent on ruining him in her fury.]

[blackshadow]

[ He tenses, but quickly takes his casting stance. ]

I know that you're easy to overpower if I wanted to.

[ He doesn't know if she realises she can cast again, but he's not wasting time with Silent Lake when he can knock her out for good. ]

[negativegate]

[Her lips twist in an angry sneer and she makes a violent gesture with her hand.]

If you really think that, you're an idiot!

[And she comes at him again.]

[blackshadow]

[ And he swings a leg out to try to trip her, holding up an arm to shove her away if that doesn't work. ]

You're an over-confident idiot.

[negativegate]

[She dodges the leg, but comes up against his arm and tries to push him back.]

I'm Rita Mordio!

[-As if that should say it all.]

[blackshadow]

[ He stumbles back without a fight and scoffs at her reply. ]

You're nothing.

[ Now for the spell... ]

[negativegate]

I'm more than you can comprehend!

[She scowls and keeps pushing him back.]

[blackshadow]

[ Until he rushes at her to punch her in the stomach, hoping to catch her off guard. ]
