Blitzø jerks back but it's not fast enough as Striker gets a grip on his wrist and throat, yanking hard enough that he can feel his balance shift...

So he rolls with it, years of circus training kicking in as he instead moves closer and spins them both, using Striker to break his fall. With any luck he'll get the other imp pinned beneath him and loosen the grip on his throat, although with how hardy they both are, he knows it won't buy him much time.
