Kate is caught off guard by the sudden switch from making fun to actually coaching, and there's no time to really react or protest before the hands-on demonstration begins. Hair at the back of her neck prickles, and Johanna can probably even see the goosebumps race from her ear down her spine the first time she speaks so close.

Though she is focusing on the actual instruction, this has suddenly become a scene from a bad romantic comedy and Kate wonders whether Johanna's world has those, or if she's oblivious to the cliches being misapplied here to their totally platonic situation. The little she's gleaned, from cryptic comments and the fights on the network, suggests that it could definitely be the sort of sad dystopia where this scenario doesn't conjure up a hundred movie references that lead directly to make outs.

She can't resist making the joke anyway, pushing her voice a little lower, just the slightest bit breathy, so when she asks, "Then what?" it comes out lightly suggestive. Plausibly deniable in case Johanna doesn't get it, but there. And she manages not to laugh, which helps.
