[the thing is that he's not wrong, and it's not like sora can even talk himself out of it? a battlefield won't care if he's weaponless. a battlefield won't care if he's powerless.
so isn't it better to carry on and keep trying to find a way?]
Okay. [he takes a moment to prepare himself, knowing chiron's prepared for him, but he immediately rushes with a surprising amount of speed and his hand in a fist flying straight for him.]
[Just look at him go... that's the type of speed that only comes from battles, Chiron notes, and his smile ticks up another notch as he jumps back to avoid the hit, more akin to gazelle than someone weighing as much as he does. Perhaps annoyingly, he has made no motion to retaliate -- it's Sora show for now, and he's just interested to see what the boy comes up with.]
[the dodge is anticipated but it doesn't stop sora from continuing. rather, he deflects when chiron dodges and he hits the ground, rolling in a somersault before jumping back up to his feet.]
I've been training for a while. [that's all he says though before he turns and zooms in from the other side. this time instead of something straight on though he jumps as high as he can (a fairly decent height, actually) to swing his hand down.]
[the worst is that he can't clear as much air as he normally would with all of his abilities, and also chiron's a horse, but it's still a fairly impressive height. that said it's also easy enough for chiron to grab his arm and throw him, but instead of crashing straight into the dirt sora maneuvers his body to plant his foot on the side of the nearest wall, pushing off to redirect his trajectory to propel forward and land on his feet.]
That the best you've got? [it's obviously a joke, but he looks excited to try again, bouncing on the balls of his feet a little.]

Sora was marked as spam, it's because he talked too much mad game
Oh? I could have sworn this was for your benefit, not mine.
[The only time Chiron will shittalk is on the battlefield. Achievement unlocked.
Hm, though he has changed his stance suddenly. Before he just danced around, daring Sora to hit him. Now he brings both arms up in a defensive position, reminiscent of a boxer, expression still cheerful]
Think again! [this feels familiar. it's a fun kind of familiar, really, and when chiron's stance changes again he pauses for just a moment before he swoops back in for another strike, this time purposefully aiming to break through chiron's defense.]

Which is why Chiron tries to grab Sora by the wrist of the hand swinging down and toss him away like a ragdoll]
