Dualscar was pretty disoriented as he arrived in the plaza. He fell to his knees, choking on his gasps, his gills opening with a popping sound and his fins stiff with terror as he scrabbled at his own, unmarked throat.

The last thing he remembered was getting his throat ripped out by the Grand Highblood's teeth. It took a few moments for his body to realize that he actually could breathe, and that he wasn't dying horribly.

She might be smacking at his fins, but he growls and bites at her lips, holding her until he can let go of her as if it's his own idea, not because she forces him. He licks his lips as well, letting go of her and lifting a hand to wipe the blood away from a cut in his cheek from her nails.

"Your enthusiasm showws your wwords are lies," he says. "But I havve some other things to take care of at this moment rather than re-initiatin' you into the wworld a adult black romance. Wwe'll meet again, soon."

And he turns without ceremony to walk away, smirking. The truth is that he really needs some time to himself to freak out about his death and work out what's going to happen next. But it provides a pretext for a good exit.

Mindfang elegantly flips him the double birds. Then she's off to find a towel...and something to eat.
