I take everything seriously,
Zavien laughs at Flora's reaction, not at all surprised by the sentiments. In fact, his own problems feel so far gone that he nearly forgets what precipitated their session. Yet he doesn't have time to resurface the thoughts as the Queen throws her next stumbling punch. If he was really fighting, he would have easily deflected, possibly tripping her along the way, but that wouldn't do anything more than humiliate her. So he lets her fist meet the pad, absorbing it gently with a backward draw of his hand.
Lowering his arms, he tilts his head. "That was a good thought, but I wouldn't recommend sacrificing your footing for a single attack. Especially if you're fighting a more skilled opponent who could capitalize on a misstep." Gods know how many times Zavien's found himself in similar situations, overeager to take advantage of an opening and winding up on his backside. Wanting to finish the critique on a positive note, the Dragoon gives her a smile. "It had some good power though." As noticed by the small dent of the foam.
He takes a moment to analyze her capabilities up to this point before adding, "But, speed can be just as effective as power, and I think that could be to your advantage. Try focusing on accuracy and maintaining your stance to rain down a quick combo." Lifting the pads again, he gives her a confident nod, ready for her to really let loose.

but I also take it lighthearted to recognize I can't control it.
