Felix eyebrows raised and he quickly shook his head holding up his hands. "Oh, no, definitely not. There's, uh, only so much my semblance can bend the laws of physics to my favor. It works with a pretty stunning amount of accuracy for little parlor tricks like this, but I still have to be careful about the risks I take." His hands came back down to rest in his lap. The conclusion she was drawing wasn't a bad one. There was some truth to it! He could definitely take some risks that others could not, especially when it came to his style of combat.
"If I'm driving a hundred miles an hour through downtown traffic I'm definitely going to get into a wreck. I won't ever accidentally cut myself while I'm cooking, but if I try and speed through it like some kind of professional chef I'll be leaning on my aura not to get stitches. I might be able to do a kick flip, emphasis on might, but if I tried grinding down two hundred steps worth of railing covered in ice I'd end up a smoking crater full of coins." The various examples were all ones he'd given before. His semblance didn't give him superpowers or the ability to completely negate danger. It could make close calls out of very bad situations, but not always and not with enough consistency to be relied on.
