Even though the robin Faunus had dodged Azulius's sweep, she was now demonstrating one of the key weaknesses of jumping attacks in close quarters:  When you're in the air, you can't change your trajectory without some kind of outside force. Also, there was a high-speed foot hurtling towards Azzie's face.

Thinking quickly, the magician realized that he had no way to get out of the way in time, but he might have been able to take advantage. He grabbed ahold of the offending foot. Thought he couldn't stop Shani's kick from striking him right in the face, he was able to bleed the added momentum into a backwards roll, with his foot extended for a kick. If his mad plan worked, it would look like Azulius had just performed the world's sloppiest bicycle kick, and his partner was the soccer ball.
