Big Salmon Lake i'll strike a violent pose

it took a moment for the boy to react, from zharille's estimation. when he did it was strength she felt beating against her; first pushing at her side, trying to set her off-balance, and next to angle himself away from her as if she meant to truly harm.

as he parted his jaws she lost her grip (or gave it up, it would be unclear). she saw teeth, and made a low playful sound as she parried with her own. so their game began! she would not be brought down by his pushing and shoving - and she sought for herself an opening to grab at him, whether it was his face or his ear, even perhaps his neck with a pinch!
