First of all ████ this shit.

[ Mackenzie Haynes is one very unhappy looking young woman. She is dressed in the typical new hire garment and she glares at the camera on her device like she might be able to burn a hole in it. That changes to an almost unhinged level of outrage when she realizes that the application is bleeping out her curse word. ]

What the ████?

Why can't I say ████?

So not only did I get ████ing kidnapped, I can't even cuss about it? This is bull████.

[Stacia's fighting style is more defensive than Kenzie's, more about dodging and evading and trying to manufacture holes in her opponent's defense to be exploited. It's difficult to get a proper hit on her, but Kenzie's speed and ferocity nets her a few blows that Stacia doesn't manage to dodge entirely.

This would look like a proper fight to anyone watching without the context that these girls could have claws and sharp predator's teeth and fur. The fact it isn't and they don't keeps Stacia from going for an eye-gouge or trying to tear off an ear, but hair-pulling and scratching (with human nails) are certainly tools in her repertoire. She's a dirty fighter by nurture and nature, but she knows Kenzie can take it.

And, as much as she might talk about wanting to stay out of melee range, she's still a Garou and she's having a blast, even as Kenzie manages to overwhelm her and take her to the mat.]

[ Kenzie ends the fight breathing had, battered and a bit bruised and scratched up. It feels good, though. She's vented some of that pent up Rage and anger and she's feeling more relaxed than she has since she got here. SHe stays where she is astride Stacia for a few moments, breathing hard. She waits long enough to get confirmation that she's won, then rolls off onto the mat so she can lay on her back and breathe. She's soaked in sweat, but it feels relieving to her more than anything else. ]

I needed that.

[Stacia groans, half in appreciation and half in "ow, my all of me".]

I forgot how much fun that was. We should make it a regular thing.

[ragefeathers]

Agreed.

[ Mackenzie exhales, slowly beginning to get her breathing under control. ]

Good fight.

[credit_not_blame]

Glad I didn't disappoint.

[Stacia grunts as she rolls herself off her back and onto her stomach, then continues to lay flat. Ow her all of her. She'll eventually shift to heal up, but now is the time for laying on the mat and categorizing her bruises to prepare for next time.]

Ugh, I was gonna keep telling you stuff but now I want to take a nap.

[ragefeathers]

[ Kenzie flops out onto her back and stretches her limbs out. She can feel her own bruises, aching and sore. ]

Mm. Let's take a nap then.

[ She closes her eyes and smirks. ]

Get wolfy, get cuddly, sleep off the fight. There'll be time to talk about that shit later, right?

[credit_not_blame]

[Stacia cracks open an eye.]

It's only fair to warn you up front that I'm a restless sleeper.

[She really, really wants a wolfy cuddle-nap though. Fuck has she missed wolfy cuddle-naps. But she doesn't trust that she won't accidentally hurt one of the others if she has a nightmare.]

[ragefeathers]

[ Mackenzie grunts. ]

I'm a tough full-moon, I can take a few kicks in my sleep. Plus maybe you just need someone to lay on top of you.

[credit_not_blame]

[That earns Kenzie a chuckle and Stacia heaves herself to her hands and knees before shifting to a crouch.]

Ambitious, are we? Well fine then, let's find a place with less traffic and get napping. Just give me space if I start making nightmare noises, sometimes I start swinging before I wake up all the way.

[ragefeathers]

I'll do my best.

[ Kenzie grins and hauls herself up to her feet. ]

Lead the way, since technically you're the eldest.

[ WINK. ]
