"Well, that's at least halfway a decent sign!" a shout suddenly roared over the sound of the waterfall. Sadamitsu would be able to find it coming from a rocky outcropping down the length of where the water was spilling out. Standing there was a man with blue hair and a long coat, and beside him a red Armadimon.
"THIS is what you call a good sign, Simon?" asked the Armadimon.
Simon gave a half-smirk. "Hell, Lagann, I was expecting to find his ass huddled up moping."
Sadamitsu had been moping, right after the virus had worn off, but Junk and Kulon had managed to get him out of that state, which was part of the reason why he was out here.
He could barely hear Simon from inside the waterfall, but he still managed to make out what he was saying. Annoyed, he stood and walked out of the waterfall so he could have talk without yelling too much, taking the towel offered by his V-mon partner and wiping off his face.
"Who the hell do you think you are, talkin' like that?"
Simon gave a sharp laugh, though he looked dead serious besides that and the smirk, oddly enough. "C'mon, now. That's my line."
He strolled along the edge of the water nonchalantly. "To be honest, I haven't had much to kick around lately, so I couldn't really stand to see someone running off because they couldn't take the heat."
He stopped and crossed his arms, looking ... well, awfully smug, now. "You gotta learn to lock your shit better."
Sadamitsu stopped drying himself off and stood there, glaring at the man in front of him. He couldn't think of what post the man was talking about right now, but he focused in on the accusation being made.
Sadamitsu was a fraction of a second too late with his block and took the hit. He didn't need to be told to clench his teeth - it was instinctive after all of the fights he'd been in - but none of Simon's previous hits came anywhere close to this one. The punch sent him flying, and he hit the ground hard and skidded, leaving a gouge in the dirt. He rolled onto his back, but otherwise did nothing to indicate that he was still conscious. He was vaguely aware of the sounds of Kulon calling for him and running over, but he just stared at the sky.
That's his real strength, huh? There's no way in hell I can match that on my own. ...What the hell am I saying!? Since when has an enemy being stronger than me mattered!? Never! That's when! Even if it's somethin' I can't hit.
Kulon's panicked face blocked out the sky, and he felt himself being shaken as Kulon asked if he was alright.
What the hell've I been doin' mopin' like this!? I already apologized to Hawkeye-san. Unless somethin' fucked-up happens again and I can change the past, that's

"I don't run from anything."

"He can, too," Lagann said, now sort of laying off to the side of the commotion a bit lazily. "Unfortunately."
"Question is, CAN YOU?!"
Simon broke into a run again, fist flaring as he threw yet another punch square at Sadamitsu's face.

Sadamitsu ducked under Simon's punch and came up with an uppercut.
"You just don't give up do you?"
