There's another shoe, but Istra opts to try and tackle them to the ground instead.
She knows it won't work and she'll probably end up flat on her ass, but it's fun either way. And she knows that shitty look. It's the same one she gives her brother. She can't let that stand!
If they didn't want it to work, it wouldn't work - you don't fight the way Ashton does and not learn to avoid a telegraphed lunge every now and again - but this seems like a why not! sort of moment.
Ashton takes the tackle with a toss of her head - come on, then - and hits the floor hard, not shifting to cushion the impact at all; only to make sure they're not floored in a way she could push an advantage from. If they were human it'd probably hurt.
Their eyes flick over to their Dancer, who is apparently in agreement with them that this is play-fighting and they're not in any danger. Good. That would've been deeply embarrassing if it felt it had to intervene. "What? It's not as if you can actually hurt me."
She does actually think about this before she says it, briefly, and determines Istra was already flirting with her so it's acceptable: "And I like things a bit rough, besides."
She rolls her eyes and gives them a gentle hit on the shoulder before she sits up, straddling their waist. "Don't think John's fucking Dancer can save you. I'll kick your ass."
Objectively they sort of saw this coming - who says don't threaten me with a good time. without having some expectation she'd carry through? - which is why they prop themself up on their elbows just enough to make the angle easier. They return the kiss, playful yet a little mean about it.
Istra can be mean back. And she does give their lip a little bite as a playful retort before sitting up. "You're so annoying," she laments with a sigh, not moving off of them.
"This has been said, yes~" Usually by people resigning themselves to the fact Ash is not going to leave them alone, though, like this instance, there's some variance.
They blink guilelessly at her. "And I can do that from the ground too, yes?" Mostly this is unserious silliness, but she can do a lot of impossible things with her own meat and if she really wanted she can always just grow tentacles. Multitasking like that's easy once you reformat your brain for weird inputs.
