[Cutter sees the complete disregard of his weapon and his blood runs cold. Not Good-! He balks and draws back once more, letting Thanatos chase him around like a scared dog without ever showing it his back because Cutter is sure that if he does his fate will be sealed.
You just don't turn your back to an opponent ready to kill.
It's a sign of weakness that will make that will make them jump and then- What the hell is he even doing here?]
God dammit--!
[Shaking his head with a growl Cutter tries to pull himself together and think straight. Okay, his opponent is scary. Big deal, he has fought with others who scared him before. The lack of humanity is new, but what difference does it make whether he is facing off against a bear or some supernatural bullshit? Both seem like they could end the fight in a single blow if he lets them land a hit and it's not like Cutter can do anything about the situation now that it's come to this. So he needs to concentrate on what he can do.]
Heh~ Seems like we're really doing this, huh? [His smile grows wide as he gives his opponent a lopsided grin, feeling the same giddiness he always does when he is going to do something extremely stupid. It's probably the adrenaline getting to his head. He is still moving backwards, but now his steps are measured, baiting his opponent into a more advantageous terrain and stalling for time while he assesses Thanatos once more. Where are its weaknesses? A hit to the face is usually a safe bet, but that mask looks like it'll only make him hurt himself trying to do that. His feet? Scratch that, there aren't even any. Arms or torso? Also look freaking armored. What he needs to do is- wait, is the chin free?!]
