<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Falls for only the slightest fraction of a moment before you feel a tug on the transparent force that’s seemingly attached itself to you, and in an instant, I close the gap and am in your face- Though very distinctly with my arms at my sides, and in no position or stance to attack*

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

They do resist each other. Good to know.
*My pupils constrict momentarily and backflips up and out of the gilded river by instinct, while the gold I was standing near liquifies and starts running again*
That may have made it angry.

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

*Uses the opportunity to drive my fist into your waist*

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Then I say keep doing it.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Exhales quickly through my nose in the moment of impact, then leans closer*
You’re a little warmer.

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

*Catches you with two fingers by your nostrils and slams you into the ground, cratering it in the shape of your body*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Two steps forward, but I would say… One step back. Still progress.
*Glances to the side where I last spoke to Midnight*

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Emerges from the river with a roar and spews golden dust onto both of you*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

<Snipped quote by System>

*Raises my arm and swipes it through the air sideways, causing a massive gust of wind and blowing every speck of the debris away in a whirlwind*

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

*Slices into my hand with my nail and the blood gushes out to form thick, scabbed-over walls above and around you*

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Roars in your face, and the aura of the cosmic dragon surrounds me before hexagonal pillars of gold erupt from the ground and rocket toward your feet*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Stands up again, shifting back to, and remaining locked on your exact position despite the loss of a direct line of sight*
So in case it wasn’t obvious, I’m a little special. I might be willing to help you figure it out though, but you’re going to have to earn it.

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

*A blood wall thickens between the both of us into a black ooze*

<Snipped quote by System>

*Grabs one with my gilded hand and rips it out of the ground, and then swings it in a wide arc to break the rest of the pillars around me*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Of course, you could always prove something else to me as well.
*Reaches a hand out in your direction welcomingly, palm open*

<Snipped quote by System>

*Grabs one with my gilded hand and rips it out of the ground, and then swings it in a wide arc to break the rest of the pillars around me*

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*In the same motion as my arms swipe, I take my other hand and punch the air in your direction, launching a blast of kinetic energy through the air into your mouth as the pillars rise up below me*

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Pillars erupt from the walls and curve around to squash you between them*

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Unleashes a sustained beam of liquid gold that meets your kinetic energy blast halfway*

<Snipped quote by System>

*Leaps vertically over its trajectory, anticipating the sustained blast to overcome the the burst attack, and flies in an arch overhead*

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

*Blows away like a vapor in the wind, sticking my tongue out at you*
