[There's a certain thing that happens when you stop something dead while it has enough momentum going to break through a solid(?) stone wall. Thanks to Jirou, and thanks to the laws of physics, Nora kind of goes sailing over the rat's head and lands facefirst in a puddle.
On the bright side, that means the whole spray of blood thing that also happens when you stop something organic literally dead isn't a problem. Then again, maybe it would've been the preferable option -- Nora sits up sputtering and glowering already, barely registering anything but the tail end of Jirou's words.]
What was-- You-- I had that! I had that!! I could've taken it out if you hadn't interfered and-- [a pause, to spit gross water, probably in the ex-sword's direction] --and why're you going around stealing other people's prey! There's plenty more where that came from!
