[center][h2][color=F0E68C]Asteria[/color][/h2][/center][hr][hr] Asteria hadn’t anticipated not finding any Nullven, and was all the more frustrated. With narrowed eyes, she turned towards the worked, who still wasn’t [i]fucking dead[/i]. Gritting her teeth, she fed Mother rat half of the healing herb, now only two in total remaining. Mother rat was nowhere near safe, and now even Ed was in danger of being killed, meaning there was only one thing for her to do. First, get rid of the Worker. Second, get them all to safety, because their current location was surely compromised. Since she’d be going in Ed’s direction, she might as well bring one healing herb to him, so she grabbed one tightly with her tail. Then, focusing intently on her self-assigned mission, and nothing else, Asteria ran to the Worker at full speed, charging it in a tackle. [color=F0E68C]“HEY, YOU DIPSHIT,”[/color] she shouted at the Worker to distract it from impaling Ed. All she had to do was get physical contact with it, and it would be done. She was now close enough that even if it noticed her, she could easily leap at it, and grab hold of it, even if only briefly. The moment she had physical contact with it, she launched her emotions at it with telepathy, letting her stream-of-conscience thoughts transfer through the link in an incoherent telepathic message to it. And while attacking it telepathically, hopefully disrupting its connection the same way she’d done to the scout, she latched onto its exposed flesh with her teeth and proceeded to tear out chunks of flesh quickly but methodically, digging in, worming as deep a path into its body as possible, relishing in the gory massacre. The worker had to get down before anyone died on her, and if at this point the insect fought back, she’d have to do anything and everything to bring it down. However, she could use help, and so chucked the healing herb in Ed’s direction, hoping he would be able to get to it on his own while she was still preoccupied with finishing off the insect. [hider=Action summary] Feeds MR another half of a healing herb. Takes a whole healing herb with her as she approaches the Worker. Shouts at the worker to get its attention away from Ed. Charges it with a tackle, aiming to get even a momentary physical contact with it. (Even if it avoid, she'll fight it and try to get close enough to touch it.) Attacks it with telepathy as she'd done to the scout. While doing the above, pinpoints its weak-point, and bites at and through it. Finds and opportunity to give Ed the healing herb. [/hider]
