Inbox me a '₴' if you'd like to have your muse catching mine having a nightmare and their reaction to seeing your muse when they wake up
Ludger fought Julius numerous times --it was how his big brother trained him, how he taught him how to fight. But this time was different. This time, there was an intent gleaming in his eye that hadn't been there any other time. A cold, vicious intent that had Ludger believe that he wasn't just training. He was fighting for his life.Julius was faster, his actions more strong, vicious even whenever he thrust his sword forward at a vital point. He was silent, no commending or praise or advice coming from his lips as it often did. No, this time there was just nothing. It was just the fight, and it was more intense that any battle that Ludger had ever faced against his big brother.He found himself on the floor more times than he would care to like, and each time he would stagger back to his feet only to be met with an onslaught, a flurry of blades swiping relentlessly at him. He was covered in blood, cuts adorning his body, his face, his clothes were dyed crimson almost completely, and still, Ludger would stand.Julius' eyes narrowed, his countenance honing dangerously. "Hm." He breathed, though there was no fondness in his tone. "Time to stop playing around." And he darted forward at an unparalleled speed, and Ludger had no time to block or dodge. A deep swipe to his abdomen stung, numbed his very being. His blades dropped from his hands as another was given, almost acutely at the same spot. Then again. And again before Julius darted past him. The younger Kresnik was clutching his stomach now, eyes glassy and pleading wordlessly. A plea that did not reach his big brother, as a cross cleave hurtled towards him, and he was consumed in a burning white light.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Gh--!!"Ludger awoke with a start, and when he saw a form hanging over his, he shoved aimlessly, reaching around the back of the couch for his twin blades. It was in a moment, when his panicked frenzy had calmed that he noticed it was simply the woman he was tending to. A large breath left him, and the blades were dropped.It wasn't the first time that Ludger had endured that dream, but it was still just as vivid, just as real as before."Sorry.." He breathed between soft pants, a hand wiping at his sweat-adorned face as he shook the feeling that heckled at each nerve within him. Dammit, he was supposed to be looking after her, and he had been ready to battle her. This wasn't how it was supposed to go.
