Shock slid across the ground from the kick, but the screech she got from Carmilla was more than worth it.

"Correction," she said as she stood up.

She made sure to let her legs shake and moved a hand to her head as if the kick had taken more out of her. In actuality, she'd palmed another stone and was waiting for Carmilla to shift a little more...yes, [i]just[/i] like that. Shock quickly reloaded and fired.

"Boob-[i]s[/i]!"

Down in the lair, Lock managed to find one of his guitar strings in the guitar case, because of [i]course[/i] they'd put it where it was supposed to be, sort of. He had been near the window to check behind one of Oogie's old (and now deactivated, to avoid an unfortunate mishap) trap switches when he heard Carmilla screech:

"That was my boob, you little [i]tramp[/i]!"

He'd heard Shock scream something indecipherable a moment ago, and now it sounded like [i]something[/i] was going down. Sensing trouble, Lock scurried up the rope ladder. If Shock made a retort, he didn't hear it.

"Maybe they're [i]finally[/i] fighting it out," he said as he reached the window. "Hey, Lillith, wanna come see?"
