Blacktail Deer Plateau woke up on the wrong side

Spar thread here! No success.

Snap out of it, Fin. Focus shifted squarely on her shoulders as Donovan challenged her to a spar. Reassess: he was bigger than her, in his own territory. He had the bulk to back up his words; she’d be on defense. But if he kept to his word, and this would truly be a test of skill and nothing more, maybe Finley had a chance.

He kept walking, showing no sign of initiating the challenge; she could have the advantage of surprise. Could she throw him over? Unlikely. Was he watching? She could get him off-balance. The hair along her spine rose and without warning Finley lunged, aiming to throw herself at his midsection just under the chest.
