I wouldn't offer if I wasn't sure.

[At this point she doesn't know about Kaiden's biotics, but by what she can see visually alone she's not intimidated; she's tussled with Imperators, she figures she can hold her own against this guy.]

[Probably true, not that he was going to break his abilities out for a casual sparring match. His own concern is for what might be called her handicap, but there were some people that considered biotics a handicap as well.]

All right, then.

[Flexing his hands a little, Kaidan moved farther into the center of the hold, where they'd have the most room to maneuver. He wasn't sure what to expect, but it occurred to him that she had to be capable enough to offer in the first place. Not someone he'll allow himself to underestimate, in other words]

[No, she absolutely doesn't consider it a handicap - and he'll learn soon enough he shouldn't either. She walks in and puts up something of a loose defense position. There weren't formal schools or training in the Wastelands - you learned by doing and you got better by learning from your mistakes and honing your strengths, you learned by watching those who were better and internalizing their skills, and watching those who failed and reminding yourself why.]

[She'll wait just long enough for him to put up a stance but then she's rushing in and throwing her fist.]

[He's barely ready for the first move but he manages to dodge back enough to avoid the hit, his eyes wide for a second before the expression morphs into one of mild amusement as he immediately throws up an arm of his own. It's a feint, though, a short punch that he follows up a moment later with a longer jab from his left]
