[ the elbow connects, earning a sharp exhale through her nose but no flinch to match. that's how this works - you either spar to keep in practice or spar to forget, and the primary difference is how many blows you choose to take. how much pain you welcome in to your body to hunt down and slaughter whatever it is that you're sparring because of. the memories, the guilt, the self-doubt.

she catches his arm above the elbow before it can quite retract, because bent like it is, it doesn't take much to twist his hand around behind his back. lexa doesn't hold the position long, releasing him with a slight goading shove.
