Senji's choke training

[ThatPolishDude]

Her hold loosened just as she could feel the first tap. She could tell that it was enough. "That one can be a real bitch to get out of. If it only wouldn't take so long..." Husn would say in a friendly voice as she gave Senji a moment to recover.

"What do you say we ditch the chokes for now and try other submissions? Let you breathe a little."

[TheLoneWanderer]

"It takes about as long as a Rear Naked Choke if you trap them with your legs or prevent them from moving.------Okay."

Senji laid on his back, trying to get her to lay on her own side --- across the top of his chest in a variation of a scarf hold. Senji's right arm would be near her front, resting against the side of her chest. The arms would be located near his head and neck, but he didn't help her any further since Senji figured she'd get the gist of what he was thinking of. His left arm rested on her back to make it similar to if they were in a real fight. His arms would be doing something if he chose to fight Lei for real, after all.

Inhale. Exhale. After this, Senji nodded his head to indicate he was ready for Huan to work her magic with whatever submission she thought of from here if it didn't match up with the young man's idea.

[ThatPolishDude]

"Sure, but I've never seen a successful lock on the arm in an actual fight, not saying it can't be done, just haven't seen it so far." She said before following what her student wanted her to perform.

Scarf hold gave a few options for a submission. She would go for an arm lock. She would first hook her hand behind his shoulder while moving her opposing leg under his arm and stepping over his head while securing his hand under her armpit isolating his shoulder and elbow. After that she would twist putting his elbow againstt the leg she just moved to hyperextend it.

At the submission attempt, the back of Senji's head sunk into the hard mat beneath it as a reflex towards being joint locked. The isolation proved particularly effective on him. He chose to not fight against it this time, instead desiring to see how long he could endure being in it. Senji, when he sensed the limit being reached, tapped against her thigh once with his left hand. If she released him, then he waved towards his stomach to get her in mount again while he started to rub his elbow. Senji gauged her application as veryyyy deep whether it was a choke or joint lock. She was far from lacking in strength even if he was moderately built for speed and aggression.

From the mount position, Lei would grab Senji's arm with both hands and force it to the mat getting her elbow next to his head to make it harder to break. Then she would release one of her hands and wrap it around his bicep for leverage and grab her own wrist. At this point she would pull towards his hips while pulling his elbow off the mat, keeping his wrist down and applying pressure with her body to his shoulder for an Americana.

[TheLoneWanderer]

Senji's elbow was torqued upward. That pain began turn white hot and scorching as he refrained from tapping out. Huan's submission abilities were not bad at all, and she'd been amazing at chokeholds so far. It was his choice here, and he didn't choose to resist like he did for the previous ones. Instead, the shoulder continue to be wrenched as he closed his eyes and tried to tolerate the pain in order to test the limits of his stubbornness regarding holds and the body in general. As it kept getting wrenched upward, his free hand hovered above the side of Lei's thigh.

She'd feel one tap to indicate he was ready to give up. If Lei let him go as expected, then Senji would lie back while thinking of the next position. He was learning, just choosing a more passive approach as some students did and wanted to try to improve his pain tolerance or stamina. He was open to doing this with others too, but Lei was the first one to go along with it openly that he'd met so far. Regardless, he was fairly delighted even if Senji himself was the one getting turned into a 5' 9" pretzel.

"----Mounted Triangle?", He asked.

[ThatPolishDude]

"I see what you are doing, If you want to try and last as long as possible, maybe don't do that in a hold that could get you a dislocated shoulder and torn muscles as easily as that one. And for the love of God, tell your partner that you want to do that! I get what you are going for but you have to be careful." Huan got a little irritated this time, she always treated safety very seriously, in martial arts the risk was really high and a serious injury might take a long time to heal and leave a lasting impact. Testing limits was good but that hold and no communication was a no-go.

"You sure you want to keep being put in submissions? I can take it if you want to try some." She'd say but if Senji really wanted then she would oblige. First, she would get into the mounted position and go through the full motion as she would with a resisting opponent. Her knee would get under his arm that would end up trapped, the palm of her hand went to the back of his head to secure control. Her other hand would pin his wrist to the mat as she first stepped on his bicep then she would realise his head and use that hand for support as the leg shoot from his bicep, behind his neck. She would tip her balance now and make space to lock the legs as she secured his trapped arm beneath her armpit and resumed control of his head pulling it in just like in the regular triangle.

[TheLoneWanderer]

"I'm fine. You won't break anything! I'm sorry...but if you're open to it, that'll be okay.", At the voice being raised, he flinched a bit. Ah, so she did know after all. Senji didn't cower though. Live by the sword and all that jazz. As iterated, Senji would and could resist, he just wanted to do this as a different exercise. If his partner wasn't skilled in technical matters like Lei was, then he would've been more closed off towards it.

Her leg shot around the nape of his neck, leaving him with one free hand to clench ahold of the thigh biting into the back of his neck. It lightly dug into the muscle there, sinking just a bit.

"I'm learning---r-r-regardless.", A rare stutter came due to the hold, speaking to its effectiveness. Unlike his sibling, he had a higher mental tolerance for submissions and tended to disregard his safety. He'd tap out, just fight against them if he could afford it. This boiled down to enduring the holds themselves as well. Senji would also be open towards putting her in submissions as indicated by the Ezekiel Choke and Rear Naked Choke. However, he wanted to attend to this first since Lei was open towards it. The space between her two thighs grew shorter and shorter as once more, his metaphorical lights were going dim. Huan, par for the course, would feel one tap...

When she left him be, he moved to give her several reassuring pats on the shoulder but was hesitant in doing so. Senji was far slower in his application than Lei's teasing pats on his face, for example. A blind man could see how pretty she was and he was only 19 but Senji was better than that...or that's what he believed about himself. Being too hasty would get him yelled at again, just as his semi-accidental silence on the new exercise made her worried and irate.

"Try something from your guard next?"

[ThatPolishDude]

Before locking in the mounted triangle guan would say. "I'm not mad, it's just you should tell me stuff like that. And sure I wouldn't have hurt you but putting your body under such stress should be done carefully, overextensions, as well as muscle and tendon tearing, can happen, even tomorrow if you exert yourself too much with what we did today, Also your neck is gonna hurt like a bitch, I did choke training like that a few times, doesn't make for a nice wakeup the day after." She explained and moved to a more conversational tone, she liked him, he had the spirit but his communication skills needed some work.

When she felt him pat her shoulder she smiled seeing some tension in him as he did that, at this point she couldn't help herself but throw a little verbal jab. "I had your head between my legs twice now, you could relax a little" She was very curious as to his reaction to that and kinda wanted to mess with him with that sentence.

As Senji settled into her guard and she wrapped her legs around his midsection she would go for another armlock variation. She would grab his elbow with one hand and move one of her legs higher up on his back so that her thigh was right beneath his armpit and with that movement, she would turn in the opposite direction to the hand she grabbed. After that she would push his head away and place her other leg on the back of his neck and squeeze down her knees while holding onto his trapped limb with both hands.

[TheLoneWanderer]

Senji nodded but did a double take at the euphemism. He didn't humor that with a response, only a poker face or deadpan stare. Here he was trying to be respectful, only to get verbally snapped up like a gazelle or some other animal. The tease put him in a state of reset. Obviously he was aware of what intimacy entailed, but he wasn't aiming to request outright hentai matches anytime soon.

"Sure...", He somewhat lied as naturally as he breathed - not very well at the moment. She'd have to work a little to get inside that shell whether she wanted friendship, a rivalry, or more than that.

The armlock variation's movements came and went, ending with his arm being on the beginning of hyperextension. This time, he intended to resist by turning towards the armlock/Armbar variation. Senji used his free hand to try and grab at his palm so he could pull it in the opposing direction. This would allow him to lock in a tight palm-in-palm grip in order to delay the armlock or stop it entirely depending on the gap in strength. On top of that, he planted a foot on the ground and attempted to lift himself higher than the position he'd previously been in. That being, on his knees.
