Kassy started to eat, simply so that she could hide the wide grin that spread on her face. Dimitri's reaction was downright adorable, and it was only her respect for him that kept him from laughing. Even that was more because she knew it'd upset him more than anything else. Still, what she'd done had worked. She knew that being so obviously upset in full view of her would unnerve Dimitri. He needed to come to his own terms about that, there was no forcing it. Her little distraction had allowed him to shift his embarrassment and shame to something he had a lot less difficulty with: indignation. It had worked like a charm. The blush was interesting, though, she'd never seen him do that before. 

To his flustered threats of training her until her tail fell off, she simply lifted a pale brow at him. This was an expression she'd picked up from television and practiced. Who knew humans had wrestling too?

"Dima, I sleep in ocean water. I like salt." Definitely she was pushing his buttons, but it was better than knowing he was moping. Angry Dimitri was happy Dimitri. Well, sort of, anyway. "Your threats don't worry me. Besides, if I'm too sore, then I won't be able to bake that second batch you want so much." Kassy had learned to be quick on her feet as well with her mouth, though she was almost certain Dima hadn't meant to train her to keep up with him that way.

"You should eat before Regis decides you're done."
