OKAY!!!!! Kashuu's busy engaging a monster in combat, but it's not like it's easy to miss Vin just having a wholeass crisis over there. He manages to look over just in time to see the smoke pour out of her wound - and what an awful, awful wound it is - and hear that agonized cry, and he's panicked and confused and startled, the emotions cutting through the tangle of his despair. It's too much like familiar things, horrible and familiar things, and he feels his heart drop.]
Vin—!?
[By comparison, it's almost as if something in this helps to shove aside the weights that had been slowing down his movements, dragging them into a state of sluggishness. He's alive again - though of course, to creatures like this, he always has been.
The funny shit here is he still doesn't know the other monster is Jiuqing so even though it faintly registers that this might be A Person, he's fully focused on Vin.]
Vin—!! What-- what the hell - are... Can you hear me?!
[ANYWAY HE'S SOUNDLY DISTRACTED so Jiuqing gets her poison bite in and he yells in shock, first - then in pain. The 15 roll is for sweet Jiuqing, who naturally gets the brunt of his violence because clearly this is just an NPC??? as he swings his broadsword toward her again, this time in an attempt to just get her upper body away from him.
For Vin who he DOESN'T WANT TO SWING A SWORD AT, there's just a blast of snowflake magic her way with a 13.]
