gosh sorry this is so late :(

[He moves as she'd expect if he was injured. Either he decided to do this while injured, or he's good enough to fake it convincingly, and while both are interesting, the later would mean he's trying to get a read on people without giving himself away. Something Natasha would do. And that's more interesting.

He moves in again, hits harder and she meets it, just enough strength to match him, reflexive response that comes faster than she can modulate. There's a lot she represses, especially in a fight with someone she doesn't know.

When she blocks his blow she steps in, a little faster, but still at some approximation of normal. Trying to balance pushing him and not telling him too much. She ignores his injury for now and instead goes for his ribs, aims a sharp kick to the side of his knee.]

np! I've been slow too

[ She pushes him, he pushes back. Blow by blow — carefully struck. Whoever holds back does so for a reason. He could show his hand to push her off-balance, this isn't the time. Not when there's so much he doesn't know. ]

[ But he doesn't make it easy for her. Strong and well-trained as she is, years of experience are on his side. They draw, to polite applause from the crowd. ]

[ He hands her a towel. ]

Who taught you?
