MAEA
To her own surprise the attack actually worked. It was not what she had expected, and she almost gaped when he went down on a knee before her. The sight of him like that brought back memories for her too, memories she could see in his eyes for a brief moment... Then he was up again, and Maea had to remind herself that she was busy at the moment. No time to daydream.
"Didn't think it would actually work," she admitted, grinning at his praise. She expected him to come at her from the front when he asked the next question, and was not quite quick enough to avoid the arm that grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into him. The warmth of his body against her back sent a shock through her system, a confused mixture of the thrills his kneeling form had brought to mind and the gentle comfort of an embrace not so very long ago. But neither had anything at all to do with the dagger against her neck, so Maea forced herself to react, rather than freeze.
Raising one foot, she tried to step down as hard as she could on the left instep of his foot, and shoved herself back into him to try and bring him out of balance. Shifting grip on her own dagger, she tried to stab it into his right side, leaning away from the wooden blade against her neck - it was probably dangerous, and if it had been a real blade she might be cutting herself open... but better that then allowing anyone else to do it, right?
