Her thoughts were the same, yet the intentions so different.

So friendly!  Her tail gave a small wave, and she felt worse leaving, but grateful at the same time that he didn't seem to mind.  She was turning, completely at ease, when he lunged to strike; she wasn't even remotely prepared.  In Maia's experience, a smile was a smile; she hadn't bothered to read his eyes.

He bowled her sideways... her balance had been forward and it continued that way, knocking her into the ground.  She was stunned for an instant, but then as her breath returned, a realization came too.  He was biting her and it hurt.  She kicked out, wriggling to get free, but completely silent in her panic.
