With guns, you can parry the arm holding the gun... you can't normally parry a (by default, Ranged) Innate Attack unless it takes the "Parryable" limitation or it's Melee, but if you defined an Innate Attack as coming out of the hand then I could see a similar rationale as with guns that if they are sharing your hex (or otherwise in reach of your arms, if you have arms which can reach further than C) that you could parry by smacking the arm aside so it misses, like with a gun.
Kiai comes out of the mouth though, so that would be like parrying a "Breath" Innate Attack. I guess that is similar to parrying a Bite attack (and barrying a Beam attack from the eyes, similar to parrying a Headbutt attack) ? If you did an Aggressive Parry would that mean a free attack on the Face then?
