[tossing the knife away, carelessly - but not so far away he can't get it back later! she's so considerate - and hauling herself over beside him, breathing hoarsely but contentedly through two holes, one of which is sealing up at a visibly measurable rate as she moves.]
[there's a peaceful smile on her face that's utterly at odds with her appearance, and she leans in against his shoulder, almost but not quite nuzzling.]
[she waits until her throat is mostly sealed up again before speaking a word.]
... anywhere but my head and heart, Acedia. I'll let you touch me anywhere you like, any time. But for those, you need permission.
No, but if it's one of those two places ... you have to respect me if I say no.
[it doesn't sound like the implicit threat of "or this might happen again" has even crossed her mind, from the tone of voice she's using. but maybe it doesn't need to.]
I'm not about to giving everything away so easily today.
[ This is going to hurt like fuck's sake, but that is what laughing is for!
Attempting to turn and shift his weight -- for the purpose of breaking her neck or ripping her throat open even more. He's not really picky, right now. ]
[probably towards the end of his struggle to his feet, there's another CRACK ... and Sword takes a ragged breath, which immediately turns into a careful laugh.]

[one hand reaches up to tentatively rub at the rawness of her neck.]

[leaning up against him, quiet, being DISTRESSINGLY CUDDLY, and then:]
You should fuck me.
no subject
I'm not sure I have the motivation right now.
[ tiredly reaches up and presses a finger against her neck ]
That was what I really wanted. . .
