Not a Sphinx and it doesn’t look like any variation of Atsali’s forms we’ve seen. I’m guessing one of the other members of Flight team wasn’t paying attention and flipped out over the giant bear in their midst.
The confusion is understandable. I think this is the first time Atsali has manifested her talons and tailfeathers since her introduction during the Mapimi incident.
Well, Atsali clearly hasn’t, at least, and hasn’t clicked as to what “ursa-morph” actually means. Pretty sure Nadette is smarter than that… but is probably just reacting like any large bear that’s just been punched in the head.
No – perhaps Nadette speaks from sad experience about how a powerful predat can instinctively react in an unfortunate manner she regrets for ever after?
I don’t think we’ve yet heard just why Nadette and Berdine (and family, one presumes) re-located to a school far from their previous one.
Why would Atsali light and use the fist when she can stay airborne and use the claws? Having something like that flying at its face should scare away any bear.
She was already on the ground when talking with the PrimaFlyer, she just saw a huh-yuge! bear send her friends flying, she probably thinks (if she is thinking at all) that a native bear wandered too close
Welp someone called it, Mega-Siren vs Super Ursamorph
The fecal matter has encountered the rotating blades…
=°O
Did Phix decide to impart some five finger wisdom on Nadette?
No, check the tags (and if it was Phix, Dette would be looking for a new girlfriend)
Wow…those girls apparently pack quite a punch.
well, at least Atsali has someone who can smack sense into her when needed… and vice versa…

The character list says it’s Atsali.
It must be Atsali, she’s tagged.
It’s a bird-like humanoid with an oversized chest. Who else would it be? 🙂

Atsali appears to be covered in fur. What’s up with that?
It is Atsali. Pickle once said that she could turn into a raptor and look at her toe. That is a raptor (dinosaur) claw.
In the context Castela was speaking, it likely meant a bird-raptor – hawk or eagle. We’ve seen that before.
Considering that birds are the sole surviving members of the theropod dinosaurs, “raptor” works either way.
I am guessing that neither one had seen the others true form before.

Are you saying Nadette is…smarter than the average bear?
Good one, Enigmatick.
Good hit by Nadette, hopefully whoever she hit can roll with the punches.
That’d be Atsali
Incoming Jaguar-girl to shut these two down?
I figure a Sub-Titan has the juice to do it, but maybe another “normal” Para with more experience/training could do as well.
No need. All it takes is a call to Katherine. The voice of Mom will shut them down!
Phix.
“WHAT the hell do you think you’re DOING, Young Ladies?”
A threat of a six-month Library ban would shut Atsali down fast, anyway.
I would yell “cat fight!” but that seem weird considering the fact that their forms are other than feline.
Nadette, perhaps you’re a bit hypocritical, no?

That… huh that is a really good point. Ok, cool, I now like this storyline more. Though that will be really sad to find out.

Instinct? She went with the fist when Tsillah startled them, too.
Yeah, but she was already on the ground. I can’t see a flyer who’s already in the air giving up that advantage.
Same reason fighters and dive bombers come at ground targets in a dive with directed munitions; more accuracy.
Plus making it more likely you can get OUT again if the attack isn’t instantly 100% effective?

Probably she just wanted to scare the bear off rather than kill it.
Bear-knuckle brawlin’!
GREAT BOUNCING BATTLESTARS! WHU HOPPEN???
This, is the day those girls shoulda worn their brown skirts
