[She gives Shaw a studious look as she tries to decide what she thinks about that offer. She enjoys sparring with him quite a bit and he's kept her on her toes. Why not? That's what she bumps up against as she looks for reasons to say yes or not.]
No, I think perhaps it's even more civilized for us to talk like proper adults rather than fight the answers out of one another. Did you have something in mind?
Oh, I'm...flexible. [He turns his head aside as he can't but give her a dark suggestive look. A bit of a smolder.] You're an attractive woman, as you know, and I like matching with someone who I think can challenge me. I admire your physicality, if you understand what I'm saying.
If you'd like to make a 'date' of it, we have lots of options. Your place, mine, somewhere else altogether. The view on the roof is nice, if you haven't had the pleasure yet.
[That's not something that she'd expected, but the surprise is a good one. Her eyes are wide and she thinks that she'd very much like to see where this could go.]
Well, then, let's say the roof. I do like having a view of everything.
[It's not the niceness she cares about so much as she likes having a good vantage point that strategically looks out over everything, but then, she doubts Owen would complain.]
Sounds good. [Seamlessly, he pushes forward so he's sitting up with weight on his hands behind him.] Were you thinking right now, or at a later date, to better set the mood?
Let's say a later date, in order to keep some suspense in the air.
[After all, she wouldn't mind a distraction when things get strange as they have been from time to time. Pushing herself to her feet, she offers him a hand to help him up.]
Also, it might give us some time to properly think about what we'll do.
[She narrows her eyes thoughtfully, because she hadn't put much thought into it, though she does have one good reason.]
How about on the beach, when we're not both sweaty and mildly bruised from rolling around on the ground like this? Anytime you're free and I am too, we can fit it into our busy schedules, I'm sure.

Did you have something more...special in mind than your traditional rendezvous?

[They're in touch often enough for sparring. At some point they can arrange a meet-up for something else physical, instead.]
