Strange is still a little grumpy and a lot bit not wanting to reflect on his actions. He takes a few steps back and mutters an incantation. The ground starts to rumble a bit ominously.

"I'll go from small to large," Strange explains, as a small rock about the size of a baseball raises up from the ground. "Tell me when you feel the shield start to give."

And then, not even a second later, Strange flicks his hand and the rock flies at Yuya's shield. As he does so, a second rock starts to rise from the ground...and Strange just keeps on complaining.

"I should be strong enough on my own," Strange grumbles. "How the hell can I protect people if I always have to rely on someone else?" Something that he hopes Yuya would understand, especially since they're working on his protection magic here and now.
