but now it is a competition of whichever is heavier:
my will, or the pull of gravity into the grave

It’s perhaps inappropriate but the ruff of Ru’s feathers puff out, the barest wisp of amusement escaping her controlled clutches across the bond at the woman’s coarseness. She has a type, sue her. Not dead is preferable I’d assume, she answers carefully, trying not to let laughter underline the words lest the disgruntled raven think her previous apology to be insincere.
Waiting patiently with wings still held aloft as a homing beacon, Hotaru watches from her vantage point as the other Attuned struggles up to a more vertical position. Of course, I can imagine. Though if they pain you too much, let me know. I can heal you if you need. You’ll want to fly out of here - there’s not much else out here, no good places to rest - so if you feel you can’t, merely say the word. Which the other woman might have noticed, but Ru is overdue kindness given the whole prior event.
Hopping a little closer, branches bending under her more significant weight, Hotaru clasps her wings back around her body and eyes the raven anew. Nope. Still not familiar. I’m Hotaru. There, that’s a good start. A better one than talons in your back.
