People desperately need to understand that mechanical rules are there for balancing and taking them so painfully literally just isn’t necessary.

You only get one unarmed attack on the dice, but if you want to say you did the damage in two or three hits instead of one then go for it, it literally does not matter. You can even say you missed one attack and them wound up for a sneaky second one!

Follow the rules for number related things and roleplay and tell a story for being cool related things.

An unarmed strike is a weapon attack. When you make a weapon attack, you can use a bonus action to make another weapon attack with your offhand. It seems pretty straightforward and intuitive that your offhand weapon attack could be using your bare hand.
