That punch was a compliment for someone who seems like they could take it that hard!
[She didn't know how to deal with most social situations very well. She barely understood how to navigate modern society. But here, in the middle of a fight, Phoenix finally felt at ease in her own skin. She was BUILT for this.
She wasn't built for deflecting spears like that with her bare hands, though, so she angled the jets of fire sprouting from her back to the side, rocketing to the left just in time to merely lose a foot from the impact. It's fine, by the time she put that foot back down as she landed again, it had already regrown the bones. Not much of a foot, but enough to hold her weight for a moment. She kicked off the ground with her good foot to tackle him out of the air before he could reclaim the spear.]
