"Ow - if it doesn't injure us, how does anyone win a fight?" Noah wanted to know. Laz's blade scraped against Nuru as he swung again, and Laz gurgled, projecting an intense desire to hurt, to eat. "Holy crap, that's just, just freaky," Noah muttered, mostly to himself.

"s**t!" Al yelped as he took another hard hit. This guy is good.
"You... you break their..," Al flailed at Noah with Nuru in desperation. It did nothing to help.

Noah ducked again and jumped in closer to slice Laz across Al's arm. "Break what? You hit me pretty hard and nothing broke," he said, confused.

The creature snarled within. Angry, wanting to fight, but above all else, realizing they were done. That they had lost. It coiled its protective thoughts around Al's. It will keep him safe above all else.
Al stopped immediately and stood there, unmoving. He was staring at Noah in surprise. He was defeated so easily and it burned. It bubbled beneath the surface..... Then it was gone. He looked tired and that smile looked fake. He held a hand out to Noah, "Good fight?"

Noah blinked, pulling back as Al stopped. It was over? He felt a pang of disappointment - he was a little sore, but a lot exhilarated, adrenaline running high and previously untapped aggressive impulses goaded to the surface by his weapon's agitated pull. "Good fight!" he agreed, and shook Al's hand, not noticing how forced Al's smile was. "We should do it again sometime. What did you mean by break? I mean, you hit me a bunch of times and I'm pretty sure with the momentum and angle on some of those I should have something broken, and I kept hitting you but you're not bleeding or injured at all. I don't understand. It's cool, but I don't get it."

Al shook his hand and then the false smile melted and gave way to something more genuine. "We should man, that'd be awesome."
He looked thoughtful, almost struggling with exactly how to word it. "Well... weapons sort of make a... we... well, we weren't really hitting each other."

"We weren't? What were we hitting?" Wide-eyed curiosity was a good look on Noah.

"Your um... you said his name was Laz, right?" He tapped on the side of his staff, "It's sort of like he was hitting Nuru here the whole time."

Noah nodded slowly. "They ... protect us?" he guessed, a little uncertainly.
I'M A GOOD DOG.

Al chuckled giddily, "Exactly. Your weapon will also let you know when it can't protect you anymore. Listen to it. Some hunters have permanent scars from not."

Noah's nod was firmer this time. "Okay. Got it." Then his excitement broke through again. "That's awesome. That thing you did, with the fire, that was awesome. Is that, like, just you, or can Laz do it too?"

Al set his jaw a bit and pushed out his chest and straightened his back, "Oh... that. Just a little trick Nuru can do. He has more." He flared his nostrils a bit and raised a brow at Noah. It was nice to be the awesome one for once.

"That's really cool. What things does he do? Laz did something while we were fighting, I don't really know what it was, but I felt less sore after," Noah volunteered.
I KISSED IT BETTER.
Noah looked down at Lazarus, his face squinching with something between disgust and reluctant fascination. "Do you rea - oh, right," he glanced at Al and switched to just thinking at his weapon. Do you really have to do the tongue thing to do that?
YES. I'M CREEPY AND GROSS. I CAN HEAR YOU THINKING THAT. Lazarus didn't sound at all bothered by the fact.
Noah hesitated, torn between apologizing and getting defensive. He couldn't help it, and Lazarus was creepy and gross, and besides, he didn't seem to be upset about Noah thinking so. He settled for just desummoning the cleaver, and Laz's weight relocated itself back into the chain wrapped around Noah's wrist.

"That explains it," Al wilted slightly and used the opportunity to dodge the question about Nuru's other abilities entirely. "I thought you seemed ... very sturdy."
He desummoned Nuru to his wrist, the intricately stitched collar felt snug and somehow comforting against his skin. He showed it to Noah curiously. "You have a bracelet too?"

"Yeah! It was right after you did that fire thing, when he, uh. Licked me." Noah looked a bit disturbed again. "I'd felt sort of crispy even though I wasn't actually burned, but he made it cool off and I felt much better overall. I wonder if he could do that for other people, too."
I CAN KISS IT BETTER IF THEY HAVE A WEAPON. Lazarus rumbled a little. IF IT IS OTHER DOG AND THEY BITE YOU I MAKE NO PROMISES.
With the ... tongue thing? Noah's eyes went a little unfocused as they discussed it silently.
I HAVE TO LICK IT.
"Uh." Noah grimaced, embarrassed and a little grossed out. "He says he can do it but he has to lick them and I'm totally not sure if people would let him, ew."
He held up his wrist to show Al Laz's chain. "I think it's like a choke chain, see the ring hanging down? Yours looks like a collar too, that's interesting," he observed. "Except yours is clean."
