Azulius couldn't facepalm without breaking his guard, but he at least rolled his eyes. He had just finished explaining about not trying to beat the other person at their own game, and what did she do? The opposite of what they just talked about. Perhaps this was a lesson that had to be explained more physically...

Azzie would never be known for his physical strength, so his style of unarmed combat played to the two strengths he did have:  freakishly long reach and lying like a rug. As Shani drew closer, the magician shifted his weight and pulled his left shoulder back for a massive haymaker. As her guard shifted left to compensate, he lunged forward and struck her with a trio of right jabs, followed by a right kick to the side that shoved her back a foot. Thanks to his range advantage, he had landed his entire combo before the Faunus had even had the chance to touch him.

"No, I said you need to find your game," he repeated, keeping his eyes on Shani and his hands up for blocking. "Not try and copy mine.  Think this through, doll:  I have you beat on reach and on feinting.  Ask yourself:  What do I have that he doesn't, and how do I use it?  That's how Davi beat Goliat."
