[It helps that she's feeling more energized, and that she's already damaged her pride by belly-flopping into the snow, only for Mukuro to say nothing about it. They're also a ways out from the house, meaning Trish can either try in the safe bubble of privacy Mukuro has created, or walk back home with her tail between her legs. And Trish Una is many things, a coward among them, but she can't be that in front of Mukuro. It's simply not allowed.
Admittedly, it also helps that testing the snow reveals it stays when she puts her weight all onto one paw, instead of letting her sink entirely through to muddy ground below. That may change when she tries pounding the earth with her paws in a run, but for now, she stays grounded. In response to Mukuro meanwhile, she makes a small noise. Whether it's agreement or not is up in the air, however.
But Mukuro seems...happy, so Trish isn't explicitly complaining.
She lumbers after the werewolf, comparatively slow as she continues the "on all fours" endeavor, and she can't hide her surprise when Mukuro changes trajectory again. First run, now smash? But she's already failed run, so why...? Trish pushes herself up off the ground to rest on her haunches, looking to Mukuro with fuzzy brows raised as she looks from the werewolf to the tree and back again.]
I understand what you're saying, but I think I'd do as much damage to myself as I would to this tree.
[Trish is picturing bent and broken claws, splinters. She knows Mukuro is a seasoned monster and wouldn't say this if she didn't really believe another monster could pull this off, but it's a lot. Mukuro's confidence will only be misplaced as it was mere minutes ago.]
