I'll save that one and keep you wondering what it could be.
[ Little bit of a cheeky grin. ]
There was one time that my partner and I were being filmed for kind of "day in the life of heroes" on our time off. At the time, he and I couldn't really see eye-to-eye on things and didn't agree on methods at all.
[ He leans in to whisper. ]
Kind of a stick in the mud.
[ Who was he hiding that from? Who even knows. ]
Anyway, we ended up finding out there was a bomb in the place we were at. Everyone was being evacuated, but we still needed to find and defuse the bomb. Bunny almost got it taken care of, but with the timer ticking down... It's like our teamwork kicked in and he took my lead.
...I may have blasted a whole in the roof of a building and he kicked a bomb out into the sky.
It's a shame, though, that you can't show your...what was it? Super strength? I think that would be fun to have a spar with, just to see how "super" it is.
Best out of three matches. Three attempts to "floor" the other, and if they don't get up within ten seconds, then they lose the match. Fists only. Does that sound reasonable?

But we saved the day.

[He is. Astounded. You can practically see the sparkles.]
A bomb? And it was kicked into the sky? Amazing! Ah, to have been a fly on the wall for an event like that!
no subject
[ RIDICULOUS. But true. ]
I didn't expect him to kick it, but whatever works. I guess sometimes pressure makes you bond with a person.
no subject
[But that last part makes him smile, almost a little fondly.]
It certainly does. One sees strength through adversity, and plus, one can see sides of a person that shine brilliantly through danger.
no subject
[ It's still pretty impressive! ]
It's pretty amazing the things people can do when they're in a crisis.
[ Good and bad. ]
no subject
[And he nods at that!]
Indeed. Which is why I'm excited to see what you will offer us in our time of need, Wild Tiger.
no subject
[ So, these things happen! ]
Hopefully I don't let you down, then.

[He says this sincerely.]

[ He sounds pretty pleased by this. Finley also seems to get a little bounce in her step at this approval. ]

I can punch holes in buildings. I'd be worried about accidentally doing something if we were to spar. But I've got some strength even without that.
no subject
[that sounds EXCITING]
Well, even in your depowered state, that would be fun! I'm sure you must be an experienced fighter.
no subject
I do have a pretty strong punch on me.
[ Grins a little. ]
Does the great detective want to add fighting a superhero to his accomplishments?
no subject
Perhaps. I never back down from a challenge, after all, and it could be quite fun.
no subject
It'd probably be good to set down some rules for the fight.

Bare hands or...?

Are they going to just
Brawl here?
And he puts his fists up, giving him a look. Is it now? ]
no subject
[anyways he's just barking out a laugh, raising his fists as well.]
An eager man! I see, I see! I'll be gracious and allow you to strike first, if you so choose.
