The girl is so focused on stabbing that she doesn't even look at Clementine. When Jeanne grabs her, she just smiles politely, like she's trying not to be too amused at Jeanne's attempts.
And then the bullet hits (rolls a dice, it's 18) her right through the heart. And, for once, she bleeds. Her expression on what's left of her face is confused for a moment, before she looks over at where Clementine is. And suddenly she's moving, ripping away from Jeanne, to charge at Clementine to give Cola what she wants finally I'm sorry. But at first, she just slashes at Clem's face, and then goes to stab her in the side. She tries to dig the blade in deep and then
The dinosaur just runs over and fucking swallows her. ]
[ i had to wait so long to be stabbed but it was worth it. clem fires once more at the knife girl as she dashes forward, but she's frantic because how the fuck can a person still be moving after that. she brings up an arm to block the slash to her face, but only manages to ensure it's a quick slash up her cheek.
and then gets stabbed in the side. she screams, but before she can even? try to shoot the girl again
she gets eaten by a dinosaur.
clem manages a vaguely hysterical laugh but really shouldn't have. she is bleeding a lot. ]
[ As the knife arm is ripped out of her, Jeanne falls forward and hits the ground, gasping. The pain is making her vision fade in and out, but she can't fall yet.
She can't falter yet. She will be okay. Even if hurts right now, she will be okay. (She's going to bleed the fuck out, but it's okay.)
She rises back up because she has to take care of the others—because the blue beings are still there, aren't they?
As is the king? What the fuck is up with the king?
[ The king was watching all of this go down, staying out of the way after Jeanne and Clementine pushed her away. She's so focused on everything that just happened that she doesn't even notice Alphinaud coming towards her until he sinks the knife in.
At the exact moment the blow connects, Alphinaud, Lup, Jeanne, and Clementine will feel as if their heads are bout to burst open with pain. Every moment, both back home and in the Realm, of loneliness, doubt, boredom, insignificance, betrayal, anger, hurt--every time they felt that they've failed, or that they're not smart enough, or that everything in their life, is the opposite of everything they have ever wanted, rages inside them. Even moments they've forgotten in the Realm, even if they can't remember what the memory is, they can still feel the pain from it. All they can think of, and feel, is nothing but existential dread.
The king's body falls to the ground, and at the moment it hits the floor, the area they're in suddenly transforms into a classroom. The king is no longer there with them.
On one of the desk are four plain rings--orange, blue, purple, and green. There's nothing else there, but if they were to grab them, they'd know that the rings will let them transform into an animal for an hour. If they choose one of the six animals represented by the Leaders, there will be an added half hour to the total.
The classroom is silent. There's a door across the room, and if they open it and walk through it, they will find themselves on the bridge back in the town.

she freezes, grits her teeth. and then hands the knife to alphinaud. ]
Go, uh - go stab the king, won't you?
no subject

[ He has to ignore it—just this once. So he'll take it, push himself upon his feet, and
rushes toward her as swiftly as able, aiming to land the knife somewhere
uh, vital i guess ]
