Okay, maybe a little. Mentally. Technically, it's already happened before. He's made it out okay, thanks to unorthodox tactics - ]
...I hit Titus in the face with my skateboard once.
[ And that had actually worked - to give him a chance to get his helmet back and get his powers back. But even as he remembers that fight, flashes of quite a few others come to mind, too. All those times at school, where it wasn't a matter of just needing to throw enough of a curveball to get back in gear, but where using that kind of force was out of the question.
And those...well. He usually got at least one good hit in, but mostly, he got the crap kicked out of him. He wasn't big enough to win on power, he wasn't experienced enough to win on skill. All he really had going for him in the schoolyard was sheer tenacity, the stubborn refusal to give up until he either couldn't get up or (more frequently, thankfully) someone broke things up. ]
