Her limbs have had some time to recover while they've talked. It's not much, but when his weight shifts, she kicks up her legs. Most airbending is done with the hands, but there are many firebending techniques that utilize the feet, and she quickly adapts one of them to hurl a blast of air at him. If it succeeds at upsetting his balance, she plans to roll onto her feet and get out of his immediate reach. She's not going to try and attack him -- she's not dumb -- but this encounter will end on her terms, even if it kills her.
