Now Shun was on the ground. This was a tatzel specialty... once on the ground, it was time to attempt a pinning. Leaping forward and onto the reaper as quickly as she could (he was getting up!!!), Levi tried to seize the opportunity by jumping on top Shun, leaning onto his ribcage with legs on either side of him and pressing her tail back against his knees.
It was far more difficult to pin someone from the front than the back, so she wasn't convinced she'd be able to keep the boil down given what she'd seen from his talent for defense. Her plan, of course, was to try and keep him on the ground.

Letting out a grunt as the Tatzel jumped onto him, Shun found himself being pinned to the ground pretty quickly. This was not good. Gritting his teeth, he reached out to try and grab onto her shirt in an attempt to roll them both over. If he could get the leverage that way, things would be back in his favor.
It was certainly something easier said than done, however.

Yep, this boil would need a little more working on before he'd give up so easily being pinned from the front. When Shun grabbed at the ghoul's top from the back, she figured he was going to try and throw her off. Instead, she found herself being rolled.
o-ho~
The reaper was trying to counter her pin with a pin of his own? That was all she could think of in trying to keep the rolling momentum going with the two of them. Grabbing at Shun's collar, Levi did her best to continue their roll till she was on top again. Or until they hit something.

Shun was going to try and break away once he got on top, but it seemed that wasn't about to happen as he found the two of them rolling some more. Gritting his teeth, he tried to keep up the momentum. He couldn't let her keep the leverage over himself after all.
While he was still on his back, he decided to try something else. The Reaper let go of Levi with one of his hands. He then attempted to punch her in the side of the head to see if that would get her to ease off at all.

Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, shame on whoever needed the shaming that wasn't shamed yet. She'd taken a punch from the reaper and wasn't looking to make it a double. Releasing the boil, Levi rolled off of him before she could get another hit from a rock hard fist to the face.
Rolling flat onto her stomach, she curled her tail upward like a snake in attention while quickly trying to prop herself back up. Once in a crouching stand again she huffed. The tatzel didn't want to give Shun a chance to get back up, but by this time, she surely had let enough time pass for him to do so. Dangit. Rapidly moving back into a weave towards the reaper, she knew what her goal was now. She had to get behind him somehow.
Could a jump over his head work? She tried it. Almost like leapfrog, Levi bounced over Shun's head, one hand clawing onto the top of Shun's head to ensure she cleared him. They were back-to back for a brief moment as Levi began to turn to try and attack.

With Levi finally off of him, Shun scrambled on up to his feet. Out of the corner of his eyes, he could see the tatzel doing the same and she was pretty quick at it too. He turned towards her, ready for an attack, but she had already bounded over him, pushing his head down as she did so.
The reaper took a step forward to keep himself from flopping over, quickly realizing she was behind him. Not yet turning around, he brought up an arm before striking straight back in an attempt to elbow the girl.

It was troublesome to do given their height difference. Levi had to crouch even lower than she had anticipated to aim for grabbing at the reaper's waist. This move was even more awkward to perform given that Shun had attempted to elbow her in her process. Quickly, she guarded against his elbow with her forearm, striking it away from her face. With her other arm, she grasped onto the front of Shun's waistline with a clawed hand, pressing her own weight against him in an attempt to lift his weight off the ground.
It wasn't what she'd planned, given Shun was sort of to the side rather than flush to her, and that also accounted for her not having the best of grips on him. Squirmy fella...
None the less, tipping backwards, Levi allowed her tail to take position as the main support for her back and bridged her body backward. Shun was about to find himself in a makeshift Levi suplex - tatzel style.

With his attack deflected, Shun quickly found Levi grabbing a hold of him. And the next thing he knew was that he was being lifted up to be slammed into the ground. This could be really bad. With her grip not being completely solid, the Reaper twisted and kicked his legs up to essentially flip on out of the suplex. With the wonky angle he was at, it was hard to pull off, and he just barely managed to land on his feet.
Letting out a breath, he backed away a couple feet, stumbling a little in the process. It seemed that Levi's style was very much that of a grapplers, which meant he really would have to try and avoid getting grabbed. That wasn't going to be easy as any of his limbs could be snatched when he went to strike.

Her arms gave as Shun flipped out of her grip on him. Her now upside-down view in a bridge posture was coupled with a smile and a hillbilly cackle. Yeeeeheehee~ Even given his position, the boil held his ground after meeting the floor with his feet. Who needed a skelevision when you had fights to play through yourself? Truly, this had been entertainment at its finest for a ghoul like Levi.
Allowing her own legs to come up and flip to the side, she got off of her tail and dangled it freely again as she stood. Slyly, she rocked on her heels and place both hands behind her back while observing Shun; completely innocent ghoul she was. His movements, as suspected were based on being precise. When he punched, he punched with great focus on exactly where he wanted it, when he kicked, it was to damage a specific area. Levi played by the rule of grab-and-tackle. They both had very different styles, but neither of the styles was particularly weaker than the other so far.
Done already are ya? She called out to the reaper, tilting her head in such an innocent way. Sure, he wasn't going to fall for her tricks, but it would be funny to mess with him anyways. Taunting - it's how you got your prey to come to you.

Letting out a breath, Shun stared at Levi as things came to a temporary standstill. Going up against a grappler was always tricky. The fact that she had that extra limb made this a more difficult challenge as well. He was going to need to try and strike quickly, possibly taking on a more hit-and-run tactic to avoid getting a take down like earlier.
Most grapplers were at their strongest on the ground. He definitely was going to need to stay on his feet if possible.
"Far from it," he said in response, taking the moment to relax. If he was too tense, he lost momentum, "Unless you're saying you're finished here."

Nope. No chance 'ima quit anytime soon. Just gettin' warmed up... She tilted her head to the side, cracking the vertebrae to intimidate Shun ease any tension. But lemme know when yer gettin' all tired n' stuff. Did Shun have the sort of ego that could be provoked this way? She'd had some luck swaying him during prom when the boil was being reluctant to dance. Ya look like ya'll could take 'a rest...'er two... She tried to keep a serious face while saying this, but her tail wavered happily behind her in a less stoic manner.
If he wouldn't come to her, then possibly... he was even smarter than she'd anticipated. There was one major difference between wrestling and a tatzel's wrestling: aerial attacks. Levi had already presented her ability to do such attacks earlier, but that was just a reaction attack; if he wanted to play rough, she would dish it out. She'd get Shun off balance and back onto the ground however she could.

Twitching slightly at Levi's words, Shun narrowed his eyes and took a step forward. However, he didn't seem to be striking just yet.
"You sure that isn't just you wanting a break?" he murmured lowly. There were some things he could be egged into, but it was generally harder to lure him in a fight. There, of course, were likely still some ways to get him to go, but he was being as calculating as he could here.
"I may be a Reaper, but don't take me too lightly."

o ho- That'sa funny thought, thar Shun. Ya ain't givin' me lip, are ya boil? Noting Shun's quieter words about her being the tired one, she did have to smirk at his movement. The boil wanted to move, but that strategizing she was sure he had in him was keeping him from falling for her trickery. Just as I thought. Shun was definitely a tough spookie to crack.
Getting back into an crouching position Levi playfully bared her teeth as she spoke. Sure looks like ya ought 'ta keep ta yer own advice too. Ain't no ghouly ghoul. She then moved to pair her agility with her trickery. Racing at Shun with a fist readily gunning for his jaw, her tail's focus would actually be on Shun's forwarded leg. In that one step he'd taken, separating his feet, she'd try to coil around his ankle and whip him off the dirt where he stood.

"Heh. I don't judge by gender anyhow," Shun scoffed as he watched her carefully. He kept his gaze on her lower body, watching for movements in her feet as well as her tail. Normally he would keep his gaze trained on the torso but that proved to be not so effective when she was able to move that extra limb with such precision and speed without having to move much of anything else.
His patience paid off as he saw her racing towards him. Narrowing his eyes, he glanced at the fist she was rearing back that seemed to be aiming for his face. There was something about that maneuver that seemed.. too obvious, like she was purposely trying to show off what she was going to do.
He began to move to the side quickly to try and kick her flank, however that was when he noticed a flash of white from the tail's movement. Dammit! The one moment he had taken his eyes off of the blasted thing, it got to work.
Already in motion, and with his weight on his grounded foot, there wasn't much he could do before he felt his ankle being swept out from under him, bringing him down with a loud thud.
s**t. This wasn't good.

Success
Well- partially.
It came to Levi's attention after the fact that Shun was again facing her. She could certainly attempt another pin on the boil, but in his current position, he'd still be able to try and take her out. She needed him to be down for the count. Eyes flickering, her first thought was to loom over the boil, ready to tackle him if he attempted to get up...
..but her real movement came from her tail again- it raised like a mallet and came down towards Shun as if to pound him into a mush. Truly, Levi was in this for the fun; she had no real ill intent. The tatzel's aim was to smack the reaper around a bit so she could then flip over a dazed Shun and pin him properly.
She was quick- just not in the strategical sense.
