Kaia frowns in annoyance as her fist sinks in, but she refuses to take a hit for free. As Cain pulls her in she goes to bash her head against his nose while purposefully taking the punch!
----
Zero Ability: "Kinetic Combat!" - Kaia uses kinetic energy to empower her attack and defense, boosting them by 75% of her energy.
Pants of Flyting Fancy: +12 Per, +5 Def, +5 Spd The Pants of Flyting Fancy are for the insult professional. Kaia's ability to turn rabid at the drop of a hat and tear down a persons confidence with her own immeasurable self confidence has finally grown to be able to seep into combat effectiveness. Three times per thread Kaia can insult a persons abilities and lower a target stat by 1/4th Kaia's Perception stat to a minimum of 1. To defend against this the target must have a higher perception stat than Kaia to perceive the insult as nothing more than a jeer.
|Attack: 52(86)|Defense: 46(80)|Speed: 56|Perception: 62| Energy: 45|

Cain's nose spurts blood, and he rapidly backpedals!
He's about to push back in to take another swing, before he remembers what it is they're doing.
"Wait! Hold on!"
He puts his hands up in a warding off gesture!

Kaia also backpeddles in the opposite direction, reaching down to hold her stomach.
That did not feel good. Despite trying to sound like he has wimpy punches, she didn't care enough to hide her current pain.
She looks up through her bangs, frowning, but....happy to hold off. She could use a moment.
"What?"

Cain gingerly wipes his nose with one hand, then grins. "...yeah. Okay. That worked. Thanks."
He points at his stomach.
"I was negating some of your moves, did you see?"

"Yeah, it's disgusting."
Just kinda weird to sink into a person like that.

"It's effective, though. I just wanted to see if it worked."
He frowns at her description of it. It... was kinda gross.
"Uh.... thanks for letting me try it..."

"No worries. I got to try something too." she shrugs.
She feels like she could have gotten in one more, but, it was good enough as a tester. She saw how much harder he had to work.

Cain nods.
It wasn't easy to thank her, considering... who she was. But he felt as if he needed to.
"...you're pretty strong, Kaia."
He almost mumbles, turning as if he's ready to walk away.

"What?" she narrows her eyes.
He mumbled it so she assumes he said something insulting.
"Fucking speak up."

He turns and looks at her, frowning.
"I said you're pretty strong."
It was already out there in the world, he might as well just say it twice.

"Why...why are you saying that?" she asks, clenching her teeth.

Cain sighs through his nose.
"I just... never said it before. So I thought I'd admit it."

What the hell is going on.

"I don't know, I just felt like it!"
Cain waves his arms around!
"I thought, since we talked about kinda doing the same thing and helping people, it was a good time to do it!"

"Yeah, that's the thing. You've been acting fucking weird lately. And I'm not talking about the mutual depression." Kaia says.
"It's freaking me out."
