As far as Karen is concerned, there’s ready and there’s ready. It could also just be that she’s new to this whole self defense training thing. It’s a little different when you practice with a gun. Point, shoot, shatter target, retreat. Cans and plates and paper don’t tend to complain too much. It’s another thing entirely when it’s a person, but she’s never hesitated to pull the trigger when she has to. She’ll learn the same on the mats, eventually.
“Typically the people attacking me aren’t my friends,” she points out, not bothering to hide her amusement at his admonishment. Typically. There’s been a time or...three...that she’s agreed to let Frank pretend to take her hostage. Which is different. That’s all for show. No actual harm is coming her way in that situation.
Propping herself up on one arm, she makes a face that she knows she can’t see, all wrinkled nose mirth. “Do I just hope once we’re down here that the attacker is polite enough to lay there and make jokes?” she asks. It’s good natured but pointed.
