[It's a fair offer, and there's no doubt that she is curious about his past based on what little she's picked up so far. Still, it can wait just a bit longer – by necessity, because she doesn't have the breath to continue the exchange. Upping her aggression to 100% does have a cost, and the adrenaline can only keep her at full speed for so long.

The training she's done on her own has been adequate to maintain her strength, but it's not the same as this. One of his feints leaves her open, and she takes a hard hit to the side from his metal arm. She lets out what is quite audibly a growl, and in the moment, Velvet realizes what needs is 105% while she still has the energy.

She takes a leaf from Shiro's book, faking a kick that she's used on him several times already; instead of going through with it, she uses her momentum to get under his arms and try to maneuver behind him. From there, her goal is to grab each of his arms at the shoulder and sweep his legs out, attempting what is essentially a wrestling move.

It's unorthodox compared to how she's been fighting, but she wants to attempt a takedown before she runs out of juice. If it backfires, she won't mind too much. It's worth it just to get her blood pumping even harder.]
