"She really just needs to woman up and ask Raph out already," Cassie muttered under her breath. She popped her neck, telling her hindbrain to just shut up already again, and lowered her arms out of nipple-protection position. She caught sight of Kon wiggling on the blanket and laughed.

"You look like you're twelve, on Christmas," she teased, feeling a little daring now that she'd taken the penultimate step toward being completely naked on a roof in another universe. She thumbed the edges of her panties and smirked. "I guess I'll just take these off myself. I was going to ask if you wanted to do it with your teeth, but..."

She pushed off the roof with her toes to hover in the air again, peeling her underwear off the same way she'd trained for getting her hands in front of her when they'd been tied behind her back. It was a bit of a performance sure, but she did have an avid audience, and--

"Shit!"

Stupid wind!
