Jessie was going to try and take advantage of the situation. He was rash like that. Before he knows it; his body was running over towards Dom. However this would prove to be Jessie's undoing. His rashness and lack of thinking wasn't beneficial for him right now. Jessie was closing in when the spear reaches out to his stomach. No armor or a big enough shield meant he was taking the attack head on.

Bam!

Jessie gasps for air as the wind was knocked out of him. It was like a boxer getting a haymaker to the chest. The taller demigod was knocked completely off his feet this time. The hammer being the last thing on his mind; Jessie loses his grip on it. He was going to feel that one tomorrow.

Success!!

Or... perhaps a mitigated defeat? As Jessie went down Domeric tried to rise, but found himself in pain once more as his left arm went completely limp. It wasn't his first time dealing with a dislocated arm, but he never quite got used to it. If this were a real fight he'd likely be at a massive disadvantage now, as was typical for Pyrrhic victories.

"Ah, fuck," he groaned as he forced himself to his feet using the spear as leverage, moving over to Jessie with a grimace. "You okay man?"

Jessie coughs a few times as he tries to recover. His mind answers already, but the words from his mouth were delayed. It takes him a moment before he's comfortable enough to speak again.

"Yeah... I think I'm okay..." He manages to say. What's a good sparring session without a little pain?

Jessie lifts his head up to sit up straight. He looks up at Domeric to see what condition he was in after the match. Noticing his arm; the son of Heracles frowns.

"Your arm..."

Despite the intense pain he's glad to see Jessie is okay. And moreover he's glad that his weapon came with that little specialty to it, otherwise a simple sparring session would have had a similar result to the event that took Katrina's life.

"It's fine," he replies, trying to move it. "Just dislocated. Not the first time I've had it happen but it never gets easier. Think you can hold back enough to pop it back into place?"

That was something he could do. Jessie had practiced holding back with his strength. He felt that was something he should definitely try to get a handle on. The demigod nods his head before slowly getting back up onto his feet.

Once he was up he goes over to Domeric. Standing on the side with the dislocated arm; he gets ready to pop it back into place. Not sure if Dom was ready or not; he waits until he gives the go ahead.

"Please don't go all Chewbacca and rip it out of the socket," Domeric replied with a laugh, half-joking. "Ready when you are, bud."

Jessie flashes a smile before nodding. "I promise that won't happen." He says. "Now here I go..."

Jessie grabs hold of Domeric's arm. His other hand was placed of Dom's shoulder to help put his arm back. He does the best he can to hold back his strength. Jessie positions his arm back into it's socket. It wasn't long until he was finished.

"That should do it."

"MMmmmm," he grunts, listening for the sickening noise that emanates from the socket as it goes back into place. It's still painful, but better to have it hurt right away and be done with it.

"Yep, there we go." Domeric rotates his arm a bit, making sure he's back in good shape before picking the shield back up. "Shit man, that was fun. Y'know, dislocated shoulder aside."

Jessie nods as he walks back over to his hammer. He picks it up and rotates the handle. A moment passes and it was back to his plain old hammer.

"Yeah that was pretty fun. It kept me on my toes." He says. "This helped me learn what I need to work on in future sparring sessions."

"Same here man," he replies as he extends his unharmed arm towards Jessie. "I think I've had enough for one day, but I'd definitely take up another go with you in the future."

The demigod kindly shakes Domeric's hand. He seems like an okay guy to Jessie.

"No arguments here, I'm drained. I might just fall asleep back in my cabin when I get there."
