Hey there! I know things are really hectic right now and everyone's got a lot to do but I'd really like to borrow an ordinary flesh and blood human of reasonably durable constitution for a very short time.

Let's be straightforward: I want to hit you. I promise I won't try to kill you or anything like that, it's just once, and I'll get you something nice to make up for it afterward, I just really really need to hit someone who qualifies. Please don't be unusually fragile or something, I don't want to explain that to whoever might be in charge of organic repairs.

This won't take long I swear. And then we can go back to doing our much more important things!

Is this really necessary?

Vitally necessary. Potentially life savingly necessary.

Mind clarifying?

If you (being anyone) are attacked, knowing if you are capable of fighting back could save your life.

Attacks don't seem particularly uncommon around here. Or the places that get visited. I need to know if I'm going to be a target or not, if I can defend others or not.

BEFORE I need to know because someone's trying to kill me, or someone I care about.

What makes you believe you're incapable of defending yourself?

Not incapable versus everything. Don't worry, I'm not going to go on a rampage.
