Neverwinter Forest Balenciaga

Did he just --- his counter-kiss was more shocking than the rest of the display, but wow, for someone so slim and spidery, he was one slippery guy! With some legitimately agile flailing about, he managed to counter her attempts and escape, using the momentary blink-blink-blink of her surprise to his advantage. Tuya's brain reconnected and she turned away, hoping he didn't notice how addled his counter had made her. Typically she was the one that did outlandish stuff! It rarely came back to target her, thus the hesitation. But she wanted to get down to work - so she slipped away from him, bounding in the snow and on the hunt.

It would've been better if he was there to help, but Tuya wasn't going to ask him for anything like that. If he wanted to play hard to get, fine! She was stubborn enough not to give up. She heard movement though, and stopped with a lurch and a crunch, turning her head in time to see him fall back to the dirt like a wacky-inflatable-arm-flailing-tube-man whose air siphon had been disengaged. With a huff (cue the triumph-emoji), she was off again — leaving him in the dark as she vanished among the trees.
