[Somewhere in that range, yes. My speechwriters still have to eat and sleep. Well, most of them.]

Permalink

[Brilliant, then. I'll see you at some unspecified time in the next few hours. Love you.]

Permalink
[Love you.]

About half an hour later, there is absolutely no sign of Bella in his apartment.

Ripper has finished playing the guitar, and has apparently decided to tempt fate, because he's having a cup of tea while he goes through his archive of mostly naked pictures of himself. (There are a lot of them by now. He thinks he might go back to that original graveyard shoot for his next album cover; he hasn't used any from it yet.)

Permalink

Bella insinuates herself into his lap. There is still no sign of her. She watches pictures go by and leans her head on his shoulder and is a snuggly ninja. She waits for tea to be put down. She decides to see if his earlobe tastes like anything right now.

Permalink
His earlobe tastes like a certain delicious chocolate cake. Apparently he was feeling nostalgic for their first date.

He puts down his tea.
Permalink
There is now some sign of Bella.

Not a complete complement of signs, but he can feel her on his lap now. And her teeth on his ear.
Permalink
He shivers.

"Ooh, hello, love," he says, wrapping his arms around her. (He is, of course, shirtless.)
Permalink

She snuggles up. She renders herself audible, breathing near his ear. "Hello."

Permalink

"This was a good idea," he murmurs.

Permalink
"Mm-hm."

She decides to remain invisible. And commences neck-nibbling.
Permalink

Ripper mmmmmmmaybe whimpers a little bit.

Permalink
Bella has not played a lot with finer control than "per sense, per person", but she decides to see what her aura will do.

And it turns out that it will hedge out all experience of her that isn't those nibblings and her hands. No weight on his lap, no tickling hair on his unshirted parts, just nibbles and slightly wandery hands.
Permalink

It further turns out that this makes Ripper get kind of squirmy! In the good way. The extremely good way.

Permalink

She is still sitting on his lap, and will find that this limits his squirming, despite the fact that he can't detect her weight. That could be interesting.

Permalink
That - yes, that is interesting. And a little weird. He's not sure if it's in a good way.

The nibbles and the wandering hands are definitely good, however.
Permalink
Wander wander. Nibble nibble. She fades the rest of her tactility back in, but not all the way.

She is also smellable. She smells like cinnamon-sugar.
Permalink

"I love you," he says dreamily.

Permalink

"I love you too," she murmurs against the part of him she is currently nibbling.

Permalink


Squirm.
Permalink

Bella has decided that this is Induce Maximum Positive Ripper Squirms Day.

Permalink
That is a good day for it to be!

Many positive Ripper squirms are had.
Permalink

Oh, good. Bella does like to succeed at her goals.

Permalink

She is succeeding the hell out of this one.

Permalink
Good, good.

Eventually she decides her purposes are no longer served by ninjahood, and she flips her aura the other way, since it's so nice and flattering.
