[she’s been tensed, ready to move, and as soon as she sees the creature, she starts to move back - but there isn’t much room to maneuver with everyone else right there, and the horrible noise stops her before she can move more than an inch, anyways. she’s thrown off enough by the sudden pain in her ears that she doesn’t dodge as effectively as she wants to - the bite sinks into her shoulder and the claws sink into her side, but she’s immediately trying to shove it off, aiming to dig out one of its eyes with her hand.
more than anything, she’s trying to make sure it doesn’t move past her, but the intense pain in her shoulder means she can’t hold it back as effectively as she’d like (because i, eli, support equal opportunity maiming for everyone). as this happens, though, to the others:]
Go back into the room! At least we’ll have more room to fight it there if it follows!
[can they even hear her clearly anymore? a mystery.]
