[ His mother language returned, swearing at the other loudly enough to be heard, no mistake that he meant for the other to hear it, but not shouted as before. Yuri has bigger things to worry about in that moment, after all. The monsters are still coming over the fence, and if he lets himself think too hard about anything else- he's not sure what he'll do. He's still not sure how to compartmentalize what he's doing; that he killed something. And he did, the corpse is right there- off to his left, his spear bloody, his shoes bloody.
He loses himself to the rhythm of it, his arms shaking with effort, losing strength by the end. His strengths have always lay in his legs, and suddenly he's realizing the importance of arm days, after all. There comes a point where it's all he can do to continue to pick his spear up again. It becomes lodged in the corpse of a dead monster, and he can't manage to pull it out. Another monster comes for him, snarling and snapping and all Yuri can do is shout, levering himself off the embedded spear to kick out, hitting it so hard in the jaw that it's head snaps to the side, momentarily stunned. The action had looked more like a gymnasts move; a dancer's. But it won't be enough to keep him alive. ]
