[ She is very unwilling to be around anyone she finds troubling. But she brings a steaming bowl of the infused water down and a towel, setting it on the ground and she'll carefully work on wiping his face gently first. ]
You've had a long, long period of time to worry... and learn things. 'Tis time to return and focus on yourself and your needs for a spell and regroup with yourself, aye?
[ Her movements are gentle and slow, carefully wiping and very lightly massaging. It's to ease the stress and improve his circulation. The fragrance should also help. ]
But I suppose it just happens after facing so many shocking things from a young age... eventually, you just have to pick yourself back up to get things done.
You can't let the weight of your troubles crush you.. that's just letting the troubles win.
I suppose you are right, but what if I can't fathom why something would be the way it is? I... found out something rather troubling while we were in Solution 9. do you remember when people would forget those who passed? I saw a few people from my village.
... none of them remembered her.
[ His chest has been hurting since then, and since they heard what Sphene said to them. Was his mother truly gone? He's been fighting back emotions for a while now. He's been fighting so hard to keep it all wrapped up. ]
That's what I needed to talk to you about.
[ His eyes are closed now, allowing her to continue cleaning him up. The fragrance very soothing. ]
[ She stills, frowning as she listens to him and her ears droop as it confirms what she'd already been thinking. ]
Then, Cahciua is...
[ Dead. And died a long while back, it seems like. However that happened. She gently wipes down the side of his neck and touches the opposite side. ]
... I'm sorry, Erenville. I know 'tis probably hollow sounding, but I do know exactly what you're going through right now.
I felt the same way when mine own parents passed out of nowhere. But... unlike these... that was it. I hadn't the chance to talk to them ever again. To say goodbye.
With Cahciua as an Endless... 'tis more than likely you'll at least be able to be with her until 'tis time to not be. It won't be easy, but... know you aren't alone should it come down to it.
[ She's not going to coddle that much- but she is still trying to be a comfort. He's still in pain and shock, and this is the most she can do. ]
[ his chest hurts to say that. He didn't know she was passed, didn't know for how long. It hurts. But Megumi is soothing him greatly right now. Talking about it with her is somehow easier. Somehow. ]
I appreciate it. I will be okay.
[ He won't be, but, he can admit it later. ]
I'm sorry you did not get to say goodbye. I know if it is what we think it is...at least I will have a chance. But I cannot let her go without answers.
[ It's painful, especially since he wasn't there- for three years, he spent time away from his people, expecting to see them. They were supposed to meet them.
Only to be met with time distortion of thirty years like this- and losses. So many, many losses.
(And she knows he won't be okay. He will, but not right away.)
She watches him, setting the towel down for a moment and takes his head in her hands. ]
And you shouldn't. For now, though... take your top off so I can wash the rest? You're so tense right now, 'tis going to make me ache.
[ A weak smile. He asked for a distraction, and there's no point rehashing the obvious. They know what must be done, and like she walked the end, he too will see this through.
[ Honestly he’s still wrapping his head around it. He doesn’t know if he would have been able to to fully comprehend it had he not been as sharp as he is.
It doesn’t make it any easier.
He leans his head into her hands a moment, letting her take all of his worries into her gentle grip. Though their relationship is still new, Erenville finds himself falling for her.]
Mm…
[He quietly slips his shirt and jacket off, putting them aside. ]
[ WAH. She looks a bit surprised, but rather than resist, she moves her arms around his shoulders to return the kiss and slide herself onto his lap without thinking much on it.
Maybe it's stress relief for her, and if he wants some relief like this- it's always effective! She's not going to fight it. When she does break the kiss briefly, she murmurs against his mouth- ]
[ She doesn't mind it either- after all, the intent is to distract, to clear their heads, or at least- make him think of something that isn't what they'll end up having to do.
She places her hands on his face, kissing his forehead and cheek, the tip of his nose and then bumps her nose against him. ]
Alright. I am yours as you want... but know we can stop any time you want, and I shall. No questions asked.
[ Her mouth finds his easily, returning his kiss and sliding her hands into his hair as she shifts her lower body against his. It's gentle, slow and passionate all at once, as she works on undoing the ties of his lower clothing, but not pulling it off yet. Just loose enough for him to slip out of if he needs, while grinding herself against him to work him up.
It feels good- sweet and comfortable, and she slides her tail around his side, touching his skin in a caress as she breaks the kiss to kiss along his jaw to his neck where she lightly bites, just to see how he'll react- ]
[Erenville might have the cutest reactions to being bitten out of all of her lovers. He makes a surprised gasp, and his cheeks immediately tint pink. He knew what he was getting into asking for this but he didn’t expect the little bite.
His hands grip her waist, encouraging the movement against his own hips. Shifting back into her as much as he can.
He knew she was gorgeous this whole time, but there is something a little more gorgeous about intimacy like this. ]
[ Oh- that is tremendously cute and she can't resist from kissing along his neck and leaving little nips across his collarbone. Her hands slide over his hips, under his waistband, teasing, caressing, as she kisses over his throat, tasting him- ]
My, you're delicious...I could bite you all over, my darling.
[ He tilts his head for her, tries to show his hips for her.
But it wasn’t enough contact for him right now. He’s trying to slide his hands around her waist now, deftly undoing any ties that might be preventing him from getting under her top. ]
[ She's just got her corset on that's easily removed, and under it, her blouse and skirt- nothing all that fancy, but she chuckles against his skin, before sliding back and shifting so he can move onto the bed, and on his back.
She swoops back down to kiss him again, working on undoing his trousers and pushing them down so she can lay partly to his side and take him into her palm. ]
Let me. I want to look at you first, my Erenville.
[ He knows when to yield, and to Megumi, he would yield any time. Not that this needs to be spoken. It should be obvious his trust for her. He moves easily back onto the bed, and allows her to undo his trousers completely.
But it's not without him trying to sneak his hands under her shirt. His hands are curious, and they want to know what every inch of her body feels like. ]
You can look, and touch, as long as I can keep touching.

Take your coat off for me, aye? I'll fetch what I need.

[He allows her to wipe his face. Has it truly been so long since he’s wiped his face? They’ve been going nonstop for the last stretch of days.
He looks to her, and maybe he can let his shoulders down.]
Tell me, how do you keep going forward when everything is so difficult?

Leans her face into his touch, not breaking eye contact, though. ]

He’s going to pull her down to kiss her!]

no subject
[ Even if they didn’t go all the way. He doesn’t mind being distracted by her like this.
He wants the distraction, needs the relief. He’s so pent up in more ways than one. ]
If I didn’t want it, or wasn’t sure, I would have said no already.
[ Putting his arms around her waist. ]
