Striding through the battle, Xarius's disappointment in his fellow inmates was perhaps harsh, but not unfounded; their record hasn't been a stellar one, yet. Almost casually healing himself, the feline strides up to the soldier who doesn't even see him; his eyes are rolled back in his head as his tongue roves over Mona's slightly dirty flesh. It's pretty apparent he's never had anything even a little like this in his life, both from his lack of anything approaching proper technique to devour someone and from the slight whimpering noises coming from the back of his throat as he awkwardly tries to push Mona down. The stolen rapier pokes through a joint in the man's armor, stabbing down into his side, but aside from a muffled yelp of pain he doesn't appear to notice. That may be because his would-be meal is pushing back, wrenching her body back and forth within the tight confines of the soldier's grip and using her hands and knees to great effect. Not, of course, that her knee's doing any real damage, not with the armor on that soldier, but the impacts to what would be extremely sensitive areas without said armor are necessarily distracting. In the end, even the sorceress's faint strength is enough to wrench herself free with a wet *pop* and a spray of drool showing just how much the soldier had appreciated his taste of the spicy Mona. "Yeergghhhh!" Mona growls, scraping shiny drool from her face with her hands frantically. "Smelled like stale ale and hardtack-" she gives Xarius a friendly smile before scowling at Chira, "At least SOMEONE wasn't about to let this- this idiot-"<br/><br/>"You were fine," Chira rumbles, still holding her guard pinned against the ship's wall. "You were stronger than him. I judged it more useful to-" She pauses, and then opens her mouth wide. This close, Xarius has an intimate view of what she does to this unfortunate soldier. There's no art, the way Delia devoured her meal; for Chira, at least with this soldier, she simply wanted to eat her meal and get on with the fight. Ignoring a sudden cry of fear, the centaur slammed him into the back of her throat and started swallowing, letting her body take quick control of the still armed human and bundling him down into her body without any particular difficulty or fuss. This close, Xarius can watch the somewhat awe-inspiring sight of the soldier's struggling bulge being shoved through behind the centaur's breasts, human stomach, and on to the already existing bulge hanging down under her body. A scream of revulsion shows that the soldier gets rapidly acquainted with his comrade who's been stewing for a few minutes in Chira's gullet, already too weak to resist. With two people Xarius's size, the bulge in Chira's body is still noticeable... and yet, she seems to not be particularly bothered by the hundreds of pounds of extra weight. Burping slightly, she turns her gaze to the last of the common soldiers, adding, "-remove enemies from the fight. They will not leave my stomach until I'm ready to dispose of them, and Mona could at the very worst keep this one occupied. Look at him- you think his acids have any bite to them?" Mona reddens, and adds- dodging a sword slash from the disoriented, slightly walleyed human, "That's not the *point*, you overgrown mule! We have to work together to get us all out of this! HE understands, why can't you!?"<br/><br/>With a snort, the pantsless and still slightly aroused elvish lieutenant begins moving down towards the fray, weapon in hand. Taking in the state of the battlefield, he moves ten feet or so from the still quivering Garth, and says, "Alright. Let's get the damned mage out of that one, and then worry about the centaur," while staring down the orc- who seems more than ready to accept the implicit challenge. The lieutenant and rabbit trade glances, and then a quick, almost subliminal nod.<br/><br/>((Xarius heals himself back to full and reaches out and pokes a soldier who is just learning about the wonders of vore.<br/>Mona squirms for all she's worth.
