[He gives a little wave of his hands, blowing some dust out of the way with the wind before he faces her and gives a nod. He places his feet in what he thinks is a fighting stance, a matching grin in place.]
Count of three. One...two...three! [And off he goes moving in immediately for an upper jab to see how she blocks.]
[Just so you know: I've officially watched five videos about how to block punches? Youtube is now giving me very weird recommendations, but on the plus side, I feel more prepared for a fight than I ever have in my life.
Ochako, on the other hand, is an old hat at this whole fighting thing. What's with this move, John? It's so obvious what he's going for, and she instinctively brings her left arm to guard the lower half of her face as she leans right back. Please, feel free to punch her forearm; she's just going swing her right arm around and try to sock him on the chin.]
[Luckily for Ochako (or maybe unluckily?? Debatable.) John is going solely by instinct which means that she blocks and instead of actually, like, letting himself get socked in the face he just turns into the wind on instinct.

Oops. Give him a second to come back.]
Shit, sorry. Can we try that again?
