⠀⠀[ she gets away from him , trying to get out of sight . she will not tend to her wounds in front of a mere cookie ]

⠀⠀[ indeed , she catches it without even looking . giving the bandages a quick sniff .. she does not discard them ]
⠀⠀i have been bitten . poisoned . fell from cliffs . and i still stand , stronger than any other spice under the great destroyer's command .ᐟ

"I know them, and I know that if you leave them exposed long enough you're going to get an infection, or even worse you could bleed out.
... Or hell! Someone may just turn up attacking you into these very wounds, but that's not gonna be me!"
⠀
⠀⠀you TRULY test my patience , worthless waste of dough .ᐟ i will recover just fine .
⠀⠀[ starting to walk away from him , a snare present in her face . a complicated opponent to talk to .. ]
⠀⠀i've endured far more than this . i will survive just fine .

⠀⠀[ wrong choice of words .. the idea alone seems to personally insult her ]
⠀⠀DOES IT LOOK LIKE I , SECOND IN COMMAND TO THE GREAT DESTROYER , NEED HELP .ᐣ.ᐟ

"But you gotta get this, I can't leave you just with... opens wounds, even if your own biology probably differs from mine...
... I was gonna ask, would you want me to treat your wounds? I'm sure what I did... may turn up driving you nuts if you don't attend them sooner."

⠀⠀[ when getting down to pick her previously discarded prey up from the ground , the hair on her tiger half bristles ; every movement hurts ]
⠀⠀.. still not gone .ᐣ a predator must eat , you gnat .

⠀⠀.. hmmph . flee , run .ᐟ before i change my mind and finish this nonsense .ᐟ

[While he was fighting for his life here, was it really worth it trying to kill this cookie? Sure ... they worked for a beast, but this wasn't the first time he's come across one of them.]
⠀
⠀⠀[ a formidable opponent .. but not a bulletproof one . the great destroyer did not care enough to bestow even his right hand general with such blessing ]
⠀
⠀
⠀⠀[ the flames .. they behave like a whip of sorts . they follow the movement of her arm , and the flaming nutmeg is like the handle ]
⠀⠀grr .. you compare those weapons to my fire .ᐣ.ᐟ i don't think a single thought goes on that had of yours .ᐟ

[Noticing the nutmeg go up inflames and being fired into his direction, Donut rolls out of the attack's away, standing up after barely avoiding being set ablaze.]
" ... And here I thought I was cheating!"
⠀
⠀⠀[ though .. she's using the flaming nutmeg to keep him at bay . the injury is draining her energy way too quickly ]
⠀⠀consider fleeing , before my fire swallows you whole .. not many have had the opportunity to save their sorry , worthless lives .ᐟ

⠀⠀will you STOP SQUIRMING already .ᐣ.ᐟ.ᐟ
⠀⠀[ the edge of the shield is swung against his arm , in an attempt to get the dagger off his hand ]

⠀⠀your fighting style is sloppy .ᐟ you would not survive in the lands i hail from .ᐟ.ᐟ
⠀⠀[ her half—tiger anatomy keeps her balanced .. while her attacks are slow due to the injury , she remains stronger ]

⠀⠀what is it you will do with their lands now .ᐣ will you let the wild spices fight over it , until one claims the Territory as their own .ᐣ
⠀⠀or maybe .. maybe leaving it as a bloody wasteland will send a message .. hah .
⠀
⠀
⠀that it does. anyone who opposes me will be destroyed!
⠀[ the temperature rises sharply with the rage of the beast, before cooling off as he takes a deep breath. ]
⠀.. eugh. what a waste of good fodder.
⠀
⠀
⠀⠀some wild spices abuse of your patience . perhaps i am at fault , too , for not keeping them in check .
⠀⠀[ the hair of her tiger half bristles , tail whipping the air ]
⠀⠀out of all reasons for deserting .. romance .ᐣ how ridiculous . this fate serves it right .

⠀cilantro cobra dared to desert her armies to elope with some random girl a continent away. that was the last straw.
