<span style="color: #BFBFBF"><span style="font-style: italic">Oof!</span> Aaron was forced some distance back from the powerful kick. After a pause as the male Raven had spoken, he felt goosebumps when he did <span style="text-decoration: underline">that</span>. Not only because it was unexpected, but he knew that he had felt his heart thump loudly - and that’s when he started to freak out, but he attempts to hide all of his surprise away. He had seen Wisteria stop fighting for a moment, and so he does the same.<br/>____________________________________________<br/>Casey was glad to be helpful. As a pause happened for the red-haired Dove archangel to speak, she takes note of Razial’s cuts and bruises as well as the high archangel Dove’s bruises and marks from the fight. <span style="font-style: italic">Yeah, I’ll continue the fight – I ought to not have things half finished when I have started them. Razial’s cut though …..</span> She backs up next to Razial. Casey has the good qualities of herself that can also be her best flaws – she can be as merciful as a fighter giving a hand to her defeated enemies, and as stubborn as a salmon going up a waterfall. Both unwavering and relentless, as well as serene and intelligent, the two sides of herself made it hard to decide. <span style="font-style: italic">To accept truce … </span><span style="color: #FF0040">with my comrade injured</span><span style="color: #BFBFBF"> … or to just give ‘em a fun time and then tricking ‘em with something else before we leave.</span><br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">To cast injury and think that I’ll accept an assault with nothing back ….</span> Casey continues to smile. <span style="font-style: italic">So be it, let’s fight.</span> She slyly shrugs, “You know us Ravens. We refuse your negotiation.” She pauses. “There’re plenty of more pranks over here that I can ensue, and I wouldn’t mind having extra fun with all of you." As she readies her fighting stance and wears a sly smile, she'd already devised a way to ‘obtain something’ from this fight.<br/>____________________________________________<br/>Aaron prepares his stance as well. Both sides are strong, but he’ll show them his moves. <span style="font-style: italic">I’ve been in loyalty before, still am now.</span> He stays patient, awaiting to listen to what Wisteria will say of this. He pays even more attention to the female Raven and keeps in mind to aim after her if the fight will truly continue.</span>
