Stavanger Bay but albert with one aimed harpoon ignited their rum with a spark

sandpiper hadn't dialed back the energy of her lunge -- so when raptor didn't move, she was nearly taken aback and sprung like a startled cat at the yelp that pried open his muzzle. her tail swayed arrogantly behind her and she propped both paws ahead of her, ears flat back to her skull like some hellion as a derisive laugh cut through her muzzle. "big baby," she teased between clenched teeth, readying herself for his retaliation.

a retaliation that came quite quickly, apparently -- sandpiper's eyes widened as he lurched towards her with a growl. she shuffled back wildly and got enough ground going beneath her to spin around -- just in time to be struck by raptor's freight-trained assault. the transferred momentum caused her to lose her balance and her haunches to collapse -- enough of a falter that if he was quick, she could be easily taken down.
