[color=f6cf8a] "Wha- No. Reaching for her.... Goodness no."[/color] Elithar squeezed out. To be honest, he hasn't been thoroughly bested in single 'combat' like this in a while. To have another person kneel on your sternum is certainly an uncomfortable position. What is more, and perhaps most, concerning is the slightly acrid scent he is picking up from the dagger. Poison. Of what kind he could not be sure. But, whatever it is, should the blade slip even just a little, could be deadly.

Elithar, in the small moments between needing to answer the woman from Yuan-Ti and it becoming more awkward, thought about his options. His hands have been restricted. Attempting to bucking the slender woman off of him is certainly possible but the blade makes that risky. Is he flexible enough to coil up and at least swipe the arm holding the blade away from his throat? Perhaps, but this was risky too. Elithar worked with a few different scenarios, and decided that he was going to hip-thrust her so she is lifted off of him slightly, then attempt to pull his arms free. If he was able to pull his arms free, he is using one arm to bump the dagger out of the woman's hand and wrapping his other arm around the woman's collar bone area to force her to the ground...

Without offering a verbal response to the Yuan-Ti woman's flirtatious question, Elithar started moving. First, he drove both feet into the ground, giving himself as steady of a base as he can. Then, he gave her probably the best thrust of his life. He really put his all into it. As soon as her knee lifted from his sternum, he pulled his arm down as hard as he could, spreading his arms apart slightly as to not accidentally bump into the poisoned blade. With his arms freed, he used his left hand to smack the butt of the dagger and pushed it from her hands. That is both threats on his life taken care of. Then, as his "coup de grâce", he grabbed on to her left shoulder with his right hand and sat up with all the force he could muster in that moment. His momentum carried him forward, causing her to fall onto her back. Continuing his movement, he ended up straddling her, with her left arm pinned to the ground with his right and her left arm secured under his left knee.

Sure, he can't draw his weapon in such a position, but at least she isn't pushing a dagger to his throat.
