<Snipped quote by Asce>

Your moves may pierce our skin—
*Materializes a lavender bow in my hand, and aims a heart-tipped arrow at your chest*
—But friendship pierces the heart.
*The arrow flashes through you like a beam of light, draining all color from the surrounding region for a split second and leaving us both as pink silhouettes against a white backdrop, before returning to normal*
[/quote]

*Staggers back, the space around my fist distorting, as I brace myself*
