[In the back of her mind, Skye knew exactly what Mary was trying to do here by letting her go. Feeling so much anger at the moment makes it difficult for Skye to think clearly, so instead of proving herself to be the opposite of Mary, Skye gives in to her anger. Bringing her hand back up, Skye is intent on sending Mary careening into the lamp and subsequently the wall.
Whether it works or not, Skyeβs doubling over in pain clutching her arm.]
( she brings her own hands back up, planning to erect the barrier again. but she isn't quick enough to get it up first, the shockwaves bouncing off the barrier, sending her more forcefully into the lamp and then the wall.
and it surprises her how much it hurts. it's a very different situation to anything that she's been in at home and the last attack she faced-- )
Well, there's your answer.
( but she's far from defeated. her fingers weave her magic, brushes of her fingers at the air as they come to her hand and the shards of glass from the lamp raise up, hovering only seconds before flying towards skye, directed rather than wildly flung )
[Skye only has seconds to respond, and out of instinct she raises her hands in an attempt to shield herself. In doing so, however, Skyeβs powers activate again and create some kind of shield that ricochets most of the glass away from her. Some of the shards do manage to cut her skin however, and the pain of the glass embedding in her skin as well as the fractures in her arm is enough to make her drop her guard again.]
( the thing about shockwaves is that those wider out than the glass keep travelling towards her, reverberating and exciting the molecules in the air. some hit at the wall, others just connect with her but honestly, it's like a fist connecting with her. except it shakes to her bones.
and she's done in this. there are many ways that this conflict could go, including in skye's death but considering that the woman will just come back it doesn't manifest as an option for very long. instead, she wants her gone, allowing lilith to lick her own wounds and plan what she'd do next.
this time her hand raises higher, a flicked gesture in skye's direction. in a swirl of wind skye will find her location different, having teleported her out. she just hadn't been kind enough to send her home, simply wanting her out )

The words of a dangerous woman.
( considering that lilith currently had the upper hand what she does next likely doesn't make sense. but it's for a point.
her hand gripping the air releases, both hands coming to clasp in front of her and skye will feel her body be free again.
your move, skye. are you dangerous or nothing like her? )
