Jake rolls his head on his shoulders, giving his body a shake as if trying to loosen himself up. Then that hat goes nowhere, and he kind of stills. Nodding though, moving to brace his feet, making a huge show of getting ready to take Cougar down.

Except, as he kind of feints forward, he stops. Close, almost pressed against Cougar, and it's as if his mind utterly catches up with him and where he is, who he is against. His mouth suddenly goes dry, eyes widening.

"It wouldn't be fair, you know. In case I hurt your hands." Yep, that's it.
