Fool him once, blah blah blah. Ronin isn't so lusty that he falls for the easy sway of her hips as she draws close to him, the Star playfully narrowing his eyes as if asking her to go ahead and make her move - a move they're both aware she's going for. And when it comes (ha), he's ready for it; his leg refuses to budge, and he uses Sera's forward momentum to topple her over back to the ground.
Ronin follows, of course, the intention always being to teach her how to down an opponent, though this is a great deal more of a detour than expected. He's chuckling, at least, as he gets a knee against her back (gently, of course - they're still training after all) and her arm twisted. "And that's how it's done," he says, releasing her almost instantly to straighten up again. "You think you could do that to someone in a pinch?"
