She was silent, for a blissful moment.
Shoving her elbows underneath her torso to leverage herself up, Yuuka took a deep breath in, all the while drawing energy into herself. Wincing, she pushed herself to her knees. There was no way she could stand as is- so she’d have to make what she could of it.
Slowly, she drifted up off of the ground. She breathed out, releasing that energy into her body.
Cirno smelled her before she heard her- anyone would have. The ice Youkai turned back towards her opponent, though she was greeted with the full-force impact of Yuuka’s shin being swung into the left temple. This was accompanied by a horrific sounding snap, precisely the sound that would be made by at least one of the bones in Yuuka Kazami’s lower right leg shattering due to the force of kicking something too hard. The pain was sharp, yet she ignored it as best she could- she was willing to sacrifice a limb or two for her pride. And with her knee already smashed, that leg was the first choice.
Backpedaling one, two paces, Cirno paused again to look at her opponent. Though still just as cut up as before, Yuuka’s figure was now practically bursting at the seams with flowers. They were knotted into her hair, draped across her skirt, even climbing up her arms and torso. It was a look that made it clear what her true nature was. One that spoke to her title of Flower Master. As she hovered just a few inches from the ground, her right leg hung totally limp- the knee bent nearly all the way backwards.
”You misunderstand.” Yuuka’s words were sharp, but not as unpleasant as before, as if the energy she’d drawn in had improved her mood, too. ”It isn’t that Youkai want to be cruel. They must be. It’s in our nature. Know this- Youkai are not feared because they are powerful. Youkai are powerful because they are feared.” One could argue there were ways to be feared that were not due to outright cruelty. But Yuuka was not a conman, not a genius strategist, nor the type to exert her whims on humanity from the shadows. No. She was strong, and that was all she had.
She had never even bothered trying to be something she wasn’t.
Still, she put no time or effort into confirming or denying Cirno’s accusations. She didn’t feel any need to. The blue-haired Youkai leapt forward all at once, slamming a fist hard into Yuuka’s side. Though this time, Yuuka hardly flinched from the impact, as if her skin had been hardened somehow. Instead she wrapped her own arm around her opponent’s, pulling downwards- trying to dislocate the girl’s elbow. This earned her a pained grunt and an expletive from the icy combatant, who paused a moment. Not wasting a second, Cirno shoved her free hand towards Yuuka’s face, launching an icicle into it at point blank.
This, finally, made Yuuka lose her grip and step back. There was a single bleeding cut across her forehead now. Though thankfully, it just seemed to be on the surface, and hadn’t given her any sort of serious head damage. She pulled a smile back onto her face as she let the fairy reset her left elbow back into place. The improvement in her mood was almost uncanny- though a clear result of her smugness over her transformation and no more.
”Perhaps this time you won’t be so quick to run from me.” She chuckled. ”After all, it’s not very becoming of you to leave a fight unfinished.”
Oh, she prided herself on getting under people’s skin like so.
She swept her arm through the air like she was cutting through smoke- drawing another short line of bullets. These fired quickly, most hitting the ground around Cirno- taking great chunks out of the earth with them. Though Cirno was able to sidestep a couple of the bullets out of experience, several pieces of the danmaku tore into her skirt and left small burns on her extremities. Just glancing blows. What a shame. She looked at the burns at her fingertips from firing without a focus unhappily.
Still hanging loosely in midair, she turned her glance back to her opponent.
”Make your insults count if you’re relying on them. I’ve heard plenty of things before, you know.”

Quote:732 words.
Yuuka used her T1 Transformation and she’s leaving it on through Cirno’s turn.
So that’s 2/3 SP used.
Oh, she's not too mad. You're even starting to edge a real emotion or half of one outta her.
