[ Thor tosses his own blade aside with a decisive clatter. It doesn't escape his notice that John moves faster than a human his age ought to be able to but, more than that that, the fact that he's ready to fight someone larger and arguably more skilled at the drop of a hat reminds Thor of someone he knows.
Thor settles into a comfortable fighting stance and moves in counterpoint. ]
I'll graciously accept your surrender in advance, so whenever you're ready to call this off - go right ahead.
[ Thor doesn't hesitate - he lunges first, intending to leverage his weight and momentum to grapple John to the floor.
At the moment, he's under the assumption that John is human, so with that in mind he'll be pulling his punches to keep from causing him any serious harm. It's only a sparring match, after all, and he has plenty of practice with that. ]
