I'll be there.
[A few minutes later, a skinny, deep-eyed figure clears the last set of crumbling stairs to the roof. Discedo lay out below them in its shadowy, broken splendor, its harsh lines obscured by the night. Shinji stops to stare up at the moons for a moment, before glancing around for Dizzy.]

[She waits patiently for Shinji to arrive remaining hidden within the shadows of the night leaning against the wall. Hearing Shinji's voice, Dizzy lifts her head towards him.]
Ah--
[Dizzy begins stepping from the shadows to the moon's ray, both hands together on her lap staring down at the floor.]

[He catches that tiny sound from the sea of Discedo's night and turns toward it. The girl's form is eclipsed in shadow for a moment, before he puzzles out the familiar lines of her form against the wall. He strides over to her, a bit hesitant, his own hands jammed into his coat pockets.]
Hey. You sound kinda.. uh, nervous. It's not a big deal. I'm not gonna--yell or anything, if you don't get it right.
[Her nervous and gentle demeanor makes him think of someone--a bit of a sad look creeps into his eyes, but he pushes it out.]
You could change your mind. But, I think you'll do all right. So. Up to you.

Is that so?
Lets do it, then. First I'll show you some good blocking moves. If you've got a strong defense, you could get outta a bad situation without even needing anything else.
[Shinji positions his arms in a few positions in front of his face, or guarding his chest.]
Here. Take a little swing at me, I'll show you how I block. Then you can try.

[Dizzy watches and nods as Shinji instructs.]
Alright... [She responds hesitating. Lifting one fist, Dizzy position her other hand over her face. As she swings her fist towards Shinji's chest, Dizzy covers her face as she looks away. She didn't try her best to hit; she doesn't like to watch violence. After impact, Dizzy's red hues peers from the side to see the result.]

...
[Shinji facepalms when Dizzy looks away. He brings up his other arm to block her punch, then waits for her to peek from her hiding spot. Her gentle mannerisms and shyness remind him of someone.. He turns a bit to block his gaze from her.]
You've got to watch. Don't worry, you won't hurt me. Just think of it as-- a game. Like tying up Johnny, right.
Try again. I swear I won't get hurt.. but you ought to see where your fist goes, so you'll get the blocking stuff.

[Dizzy blinks once watching him turn away from her. Looking down at her hand.]
O-kay. Here goes. [Although it felt strange to do this herself. Dizzy has always relied on her wings to hit her opponent as she looks away. Dizzy lifts her fist up once again. Again, as she throws her first to him, with a little force, she close her eyes again.]

It's alright. Even if I don't have my powers, I want to learn to protect myself and everyone.

You gotta watch. Or lets do this in slow motion. That way, it won't seem like violence.
Just take your arm like you're gonna punch and move it like this--
[He gently guides her arm out, unless she tries to pull it back. Then he brings up his arm to show the block.]
See. If you guard, and someone strikes at you, you can hold off the blows.

I'm sorry...
[She watches as he guides her arm towards himself. She tilts her head understanding the concept Shinji showed her.]
Oh, I see. So--what do you do after you block?
