[ His own doppelganger hadn’t been chatty at all since it was reflecting that brutal, alien part of Sebastian, so the double answer almost gets him to laugh. Almost. It’s still a serious situation, especially when he’s given permission (twice over, technically) to be viciously precise. Though he can’t help the little quirk of a smile.
It’s short-lived, though. The success he feels from expertly dislocating the shoulder evaporates as his feet rather suddenly leave the ground and he feels… lighter? The weightlessness is an odd sensation to Sebastian that throws him off slightly. His grip on the copy’s arm loosens, though he doesn’t think much of it since the dislocation makes it suitably less dangerous. He stretches his legs to try and re-anchor them to the ground, but it’s quickly only the tips of his dress shoes that can brush that ground.
With an annoyed click of his tongue, he changes tactics. His left hand changes in appearance completely as it shifts into a hand that’s pitch black and looks hardened like a carapace. Most important are the sharp claws, though. He digs those into the copy’s arm at the shoulder to both anchor himself and pull back closer rather than drift away. It may be harder for him to give punches and kicks this way, but he’s still perfectly capable of slicing into flesh with claws. If he can rip open the copy's neck, that'll solve the problem easily. ]
