It's never any trouble <3 Take all the breaks you need.
Baelphegor leaped skywards with a roar, drawing back her weapon to fight. A little bit of energy returned as she prepared to meet him midair. It was foolish of her to think a war like this could be won in one battle. No matter the victor each time, it would only matter when one of them killed the other. And that wouldn't happen until they could predict each other's movements, ideas, thoughts. Not until they knew each other so well, they could fall into a predictable pattern, fighting a choreographed fight that one of them would break at the least expected moment, thus ending it all.
With this thought she bared her teeth at him, refusing to show him any hint of the lingering hesitancy she felt.
He hissed as he flew into the air. He didn't want to deal with this. But he had to. He seemed tired as he attacked her, almost annoyed. He glared at her as they flew at each other, his mind blank, letting him trust himself as and his movements. He knew he had to be careful, or things would get messier then they already are.
(Oof, sorry! Depression got be so dang low rn.)
Almost immediately, Baelphegor felt that something was wrong. Instead of reading his movements and reacting accordingly, she would misjudge, crashing into his on several unplanned occasions, having to scramble to get out of range before he could land a blow. She tried to get focused, move to offense, but just couldn't seem to predict the fight correctly.
As she clumsily dodged around him for the fifth time, she hissed in frustration, twisting midair and trying to get some space, so she could recalibrate.
(It's alright. I know the feeling)
He was confused by the mistakes the other made, making it easier for him to land moves. He was so tired though, so he rarely took the opportunities that he usually would. He sighed quietly before looking around. The battle was still raging. He followed her moves, looking absolutely tired.
(Probably going to be spotty for the rest of the month, I'm really, rEALLY busy rn, but I'll try to get a reply up for this tonight! Thanks for understanding :)
(It's alright hun. I'm usually spotty.)
(tysm <3)
Baelphegor noticed the angel's sluggish movements, and unease began to prickle at her. Why could neither of them fight properly? She finally gave up on avoiding injury and tackled the angel pull on, driving him into the ground and pinning him there, baring her teeth inches from his face.
"What's wrong with you?" she growled, too quiet for any of the other angels or demons to hear.
He sighed softly as he fought, not wanting to deal with it. He wanted to leave. He wanted this war to end. He wanted to be left alone. he yelps out when he's pinned, and that seems to wake him up. "I just don't want to fight." He hissed back, throwing her off him and flying up back into the clouds, his eyes narrowed.
(Hey, hey! ^^ I'm back from hiatus, hopefully for a good while this time TwT)
"Why not?" Baelphegor challenged, trying not to betray the fact that she felt the same. She soared up after him, darting through the clouds and trying to cut him off. "Are you too weak to manage a few simple clashes?"
((You're totally okay! I was gone too lol.))
"I'm just bored with all the fighting. Aren't you? This stupid battle will go on for centuries! Look around you! We're pawns!" He hissed in reply, whacking her in the shoulder the first time she passed in front of him. He dove to the side, his huge wings flapping harshly, causing heavy winds.
(Ty! ^^)
Baelphegor grit her teeth and rolled with the blow, using it as an excuse not to reply right away.
"So what?" she said, swooping after him and bowling him back out of the sky. "What else is there? You think our troops are just going to let us quit? Even if I agree with you, which I might not, What can we do about it?"
She sank her claws into his wing in anger. "We are pawns. Suck it up."
So why can't you? she challenged herself mentally.
(( I am so so sorry for disappearing from notebook. I was going through an absolute nightmare, but I'm better now, and I'm here. If you'd like to continue that is.))
(Hey, it's all okay <3 I totally understand, I hope you're okay now.
While I've been having so much fun with this rp, I'm currently mostly off notebook, because I just have too much going on irl. For now, let's put it on hold, but maybe we can pick it up again in the future :)
