"Nothing below the waist, if you don't mind," Steve counters, adding his own rule. He supposes that little else is off limits, so he drops into an easy stance to wait for her to make the opening moves, but she's canny or cautious enough to have the same plan. When a few seconds pass without either of them moving, Steve decides to be the one to take the plunge.
He bolts forward with almost alarming speed, dropping low to try and sweep her legs out from under her.
Even though he warned her about his punches, he never planned on using the full force of his strength against her. He rarely does, against unenhanced humans, not wanting to injure them unnecessarily if he can avoid it. He knows that a punch or kick from him can easily send someone flying, can break bones, even without shield or hammer.
