( listen, that wham!! gets a reaction from him, coughing up whatever breath he had as he finds himself dropping down to his knees, a hand outstretched to place against the floor so that he doesn't actually collide face first. his other hand however rests in the area where he was hit, and he coughs loudly while trying to catch his breath. overdramatic? no, but that was truly unlucky, he thinks. )

( you know what, you got this izumi! komaeda's just going to stay on the floor, because while he may be an ultimate that doesn't mean he's unable to get his ass whooped! the worst part, there's a smile on his face as he takes a slow breath, swallowing down the saliva caught in his throat as he looks up at chiaki. )

Be proud of yourself, ah... for such an opportunity, ( he almost looks like he's shaking? maybe he enjoyed it? maybe this is what people with sicknesses do. don't ask me about this freak. ) I wonder what bad luck will befall us. ( cough, cough, omg why does it hurt. )
