[i'm sorry to her other two teammates but after the day she's had she's really going to launch herself at wolfwood and try to beat him up]

[crucifer]

[ Okay well I guess this is happening

Wolfwood is also just. No hesitation swinging back I GUESS. He's not going to just take this lying down. The courtesy is that it's a punch and not a wholesale swing of his cross into her. ]

[crimebaby]

[ livio is going to literally just grab him and yank him back so no hits will happen ]

Enough! Both of you!!

[crucifer]

[ Swinging around, he won't throw a punch at Livio but he's evidently incredibly annoyed and pissed. ]

Why's it all going down on me?! I! Literally! Didn't do anything!

[ HE HAS HAD IT UP TO HERE WITH EVERYTHING AND JUST WANTS TO BASH SOMETHING ]

[crimebaby]

[ go ahead and bash him, bro, he can take it ]

[ but like bodily dragging him away from shenhe and vash ]

You're doing something now! This isn't helping anything!

[crucifer]

[ Be shittier then and then he will. ]

Stampede started shit! And now little red and purple are up in my case because of it, and then big girl threw a punch at me for being, I think, rightfully pretty damn annoyed about it -- and you think I'm doing something?

[crimebaby]

[ come at him ] Shenhe's friends from home just got fucked up! [ giving him a glare like oh, you'd handle that perfectly if it were vash or me? ]

And whatever it is they're mad about, it's not worth tearing your own teammate to shreds over! Vash said he'd clear it up with them!

[crucifer]

Fuck you, you know those things are different.

[ He's balling his hand into a fist, and he looks like he really, really is going to sock Livio in the face for that one --

But. He just makes an angry snarl and stalks off to the other side of their closed off park space. You may spy a Wolfwood in the distance angrily slamming one longer end of his cross into the wall out of frustration before he just sits down out there alone. ]

[ashmark]

Shenhe!!

[ she is not stupid enough to run in front of her but she will try to grab her least i'm-punching-wolfwood arm ]

[bindings]

[oh, this - well, listen, this is very effective. livio's presumably got wolfwood which means shenhe just has a punching bag to aim for but - nahri grabbing for her arm makes her stop almost dead in her tracks. vash stops her the rest of the way.

she has to clench both of her fists very tightly and close her eyes to try and calm down.]

[ashmark]

Stop it. [ she is too freaked out to be mad. she isn't letting go of shenhe's arm though. ]

[bindings]

[very tightly:] I'm trying.

[ashmark]

I know. I know. [ she might be shaking a little. ]

I'll just put up a barrier if Vash lets you go. Don't do this.

[bindings]

[a deep breath.]

You should just let me fight him. It will make both of us feel better.

[ashmark]

I'm not going to.

[camena]

[ HELP I WENT TO TAKE A SHOWER AND CAME BACK TO THIS WHAT IS GOING ON!!!! i mostly just need to establish that alex is HERE BEING STRESSED, OKAY!!! ]

Can we—I don't know what's going on, but can we not fight?

[bindings]

[HELP POOR ALEX shenhe just

takes another deep breath.]

... Sorry. [she does genuinely sound it - she just has a temper problem.]

[camena]

It's fine as long as everyone just stops.

[piteous]

[ He uses drift to root Shenhe in her place since he thinks Livio can take on Wolfwood. Hopefully, this will make it easier for Nahri to handle her. ]

Please, stop. Both of you.

[ashmark]

[ :pray: ]

[bindings]

[she does stop! she just looks like she's going to explode instead, which is fine]

[piteous]

I appreciate that you tried to prevent another fight. Thank you.

[ EVEN THOUGH SHE JUST ALMOST STARTED ANOTHER ONE. ]

And I'm sorry I'm asking you this, even though I'm the one to blame... Do you think you can prevent another one?

[bindings]

[a pause.]

... It isn't your fault. [she's aware of that, at least.] I'm angry. That isn't something you did.

[but she's not going to pick a fight, even if she does think it'd make wolfwood feel better to beat something up.]

[piteous]

... I know, but maybe if I didn't do anything, we wouldn't be here.

[ Or maybe Shenhe will find a way to get into a fight, anyway. He doesn't know. ]

If you want to fight someone, want to go at me instead?

[bindings]

No. It would not help you.

[she has her eyes closed, breathing in and out slow.]

... I wonder if these are losing their effectiveness.
