[He waits to see what Fern will decide to do. The tension lies thick in the air. Maul braces himself when he sees that Fern has indeed decided to take him up on this offer. He knows this is going to hurt but Maul's life has been full of nothing but pain. Compared to getting chopped in half, this is at least something that he can stand.
There's a grunt of pain when Fern's sword sinks into his flesh side but no loud cry to accompany being stabbed. Really, how can something made of grass hurt so badly? Still, Fern doesn't go straight to stab him in the heart or take off his head, so Maul figures he doesn't want him dead.
He staggers back a few steps, the grass sword now coated in the sickly green color of a Vileblood. Venge has had enough of letting their other half get hurt and so they uncloak themselves, seeming to appear out of nowhere. They come up to Fern, growling softly and trying to push him away.]
You took your chance. Good. I'm not giving you another one.
[Maul is willing to make atonement but he's not going to martyr himself for the sake of Fern's feelings. He presses a gloved hand to his side, the blood still oozing out, recalling his lightsaber to his other hand with the Force. Then he staggers off, Venge trotting right by his side in case he gets too woozy and needs to hold onto something.]
[Fern isn't going to deny that stabbing Maul feels good. There are a lot of people who would tell him this is a bad idea, that he shouldn't give into his violent impulses, but he wants to. It feels great. It's kind of gross that it feels great, but that's something he'll fully process later on when he's calmed down.
When Maul stumbles Fern pulls his sword back, not bothered by the blood now coating the blade. When Venge approaches he backs off, Blodeuwedd hissing defensively and once again putting herself between Fern and the two of them. Neither of them move, Blodeuwedd wanting to protect Fern and a conflicted sort of discomfort bubbling up in him now that he's gone and stabbing Maul. He got what he wants, which is more than he expected, and Maul isn't even trying to hurt him back. He's just leaving.
It's a lot, and after Maul and Venge are out of sight, Fern turns and heads back inside the house, not sure what to think.]
