He looked at Vivi then turned his attention back to the dummy. There was no way he was gonna walk away from this looking like a twerp weeping over a little scratch "Lets try that again huh?..." he chuckled awkwardly as he lifted his arms into that sparring position again, lunged forward and aimed for the chest....
This time his fist smacked soundly against the dummy's chest, causing its torso to shift backwards a bit. It also sent a jolt of pain right through that fist of his, and he hissed as he pulled his arm back. "Hey not bad huh?" he grinned at the other Claw and subtly nursed his fist. Does hitting someone supposed to hurt that bad? Why is it that some people cant seem to get enough of it? Liar. He was being all stoic and Gryffindor about the wound, and Vivi was fool enough to let him. She gave him a long blink before turning back to her own dummy. There was something to be said for pride, and time enough to fuss over the wound if it was really a wound.
"Very impressive, sir. I sort of wonder if we ought to learn how to hit with a punching bag before we take on big bully dummies. I'm sure I did that all wrong. My knuckles..." Was this hitting home at all, or did he think she was just trying to protect him?
Maybe she was. A bit.
She punched her dummy again, her blond ponytail a flurry. "I think we're doing well, actually, although I know I'm fussing at you. I'll behave. Now... hit the dummy in the nose. Use the base of your palm and strike upward like you want him to sniff his own brain. It hurts like the dickens."
