[Because if they're going to get into the issue of unfair advantages, she's from a race who's known in her universe for their battle ability. But she can see how it would be difficult to hit him, even just observing how he's moved on this job.]
There's a lot of words like "cheating" thrown around. [He rolls his eyes.] But let's call it like it is- nobody likes seein' the little guy make an embarrassment outta the big guy. Bad for ticket sales.
[He scratches the fur on under his chin, as he considers those things.] That one I've never heard of. Must be different universes.
[Her experience has been the opposite. Plenty of people like seeing a small young woman clobber a big guy, especially if the guy in question is rude or extra violent. But then, she's been mistaken for human on more than one occasion, and Rocket is decidedly tinier. And cuter, until he starts talking.]
What's your fighting style like? Do you use your opponent's force against them?
[She's envisioning a lot of dodging and throwing.]
I prefer to shoot if I have my way about it. Or set traps- I love a good trap. [He chuckles indulgently.] Buut if I gotta, the idea is to keep 'em from gettin' a good hit on me and then punchin' 'em in the throat or head. I'm fast and I'm a good climber- they don't stand a chance.
[No one expects to get punched in the throat by something like him. What's even worse is they don't expect it to hurt that much.]
Traps and guns normally aren't allowed in tournaments, so I can see where people might start talking about cheating when you're fighting in the ring. But versatility is good for jobs and missions.
