[ Compared to the...dignity of Rafa and Ignacio, Rip is still the kind of vampire that Dominic feels has a certain bloodlust, a certain animal nature.

But they're also friends, no matter how watching her lick her own blood makes him feel, and he's also focused on the fight. He braces against her strength, ducking low to kick at her feet and try to stop her momentum. ]

[Rip was still young compared to Rafa and Ignacio. She was unrefined and reveled in her darker nature, relaxing to let her express her more violent desires in their fight.

Even with her indulging, Rip kept in mind that she likes Dominic and didn't want to kill him. Just.. rough up and maybe break a bone or two. Maybe.

Rip rushes in close, ready to tackle him when he drops down. Within a second, Rip is launching herself at him, arms out stretched and hands eager to grab him as she pounces to avoid his sweep. Her momentum hits them both hard, causing them to tumble.

It wasn't quite what she wanted... and it left her feeling dazed for a few precious moments before quickly rolling to get up and get out of his range.]

[ Dominic has a lot of practice rolling with his knives, keeping himself form being injured with them while also keeping them close at hand.

So he keeps one hand tucked carefully, knife to the side as they tumble.

When they've come to a stop he kicks at her legs, trying to keep them down while simultaneously slashing at her side. ]

[Those few precious seconds of being dazed cost her as she felt a blade tear at her clothing. It didn't catch much else as she focuses more on avoiding his kicks. The knife didn't really bother her. Rip invited the pain it might cause her as she focuses more on keeping her legs beneath her.

Rip was.. holding back a bit, just enough to keep this going and interesting for both of them.]

[ This place has caused them both too much pain to be worried about the physical results of a few blows. Dominic's well aware that if she stops holding back she could cause him quite a lot of damage, but he also doesn't care very much about that.

Dominic focuses on trying to press his weight on her chest as soon as he has the chance, trying to keep them both on the ground so she can't just get away. The knife is useds as a tool to keep them close where it catches at her clothing. ]
