[Izuku looks down and holds to the blade handle more gently this time. Observing his hands. He takes the note to heart because if he can balance his hands then it should be okay. These days Izuku's legs are stronger than his arms so that's where most of his power is but this will be okay.]

Okay. I think I can work on that while getting stronger with my hands. Dodging and parrying...

[He looks up with a thankful smile, cheeks a bit pink.]

Thank you for helping me today, this is really new to me so... I appreciate it.
