As she darts in to hack at the beast's neck and Xarces follows, she can feel the creature die- it's a shudder, traveling through the necks, and it made the city elf grin like a wolf out of tension, fear, and simple adrenaline. Her own fights had always been so- restrained, civil, compared to this... a more primal bloody struggle felt almost pleasant. Ignoring the list, she ducks in and hacks at the gums of the beast, carving out a little prize and snatching it as the body's shoved off the deck. Clutching the long sharp fang with bits of bloody muscle still stuck to the root, she watches it go with the grin frozen on her mouth until it slowly fades as the carcass bobs away. She stands, slimy and bloody, frozen for a little while as her face relaxes as she does. Discussion of their destination passes through her all but unheeded, as a corner of her mind files away the information for later consumption and understanding; their employer would get his if he was still being less than truthful, and even the prospect of a dragon didn't put fear in her heart as it might have before. When Xarces interrupts her, she starts, twitching in surprise before giving the man a grin. "Got me out of that mouth. The music jarred a... memory loose. Very motivating, even considering the stomach rumble in my ears. You, though, you didn't have that help. I just want to say-" she darts forward, wrapping her arms around the man and pressing her mouth to his for a brief but passionate kiss; the bloody slurry covering both smears, but seemingly as soon as the elf's begun she retreats, grinning and heading for the bow without a further word aside from a casually tossed over her shoulder, "Thanks!"
