Sable blushes and giggles and shakes her head.

"You're so cute. Thank goodness there are no cuteness police in Minecraft or you'd be in trouble."

She giggles back. "Arrest me officer, my adorableness has exceeded all reasonable parameters and poses a clear and present danger to the public." 

"Clearly this is where you were jailed for your absurd cuteness. I am your warden. And this is your punishment."

She peppers Hazel's face with kisses all over.

"Clearly." Hazel smiles and snuggles in closer. 

"... I can feel the way you love me, you know. In the little caresses, the way you look at me, the way you hold yourself around me..." 

She sighs softly and kisses Sable again. "It's so good."

Sable grins softly. "Then clearly I'm doing something right, because you deserve such goodness. You deserve love."

Hazel just blushes and snuggles in a little closer.

Sable blushes and peppers Hazel's face with kisses.

"Precious girl. This isn't how I would've planned for us to meet up in person, but I'm certainly not going to complain now that I've got you."

She strokes one hand along Hazel's cheek, and the other along her waist, and presses a tender kiss to her lips.

Hazel gives Sable a deeply sappy look and kisses back, her body shivering a little at Sable's touch. 

"Yeah..."

She looks down at herself shyly. "... I... don't want to get out of bed right now, but I do want to keep... progressing. It's so good to have you here but it could be even better if..." She trails off. "... If my body were fixed." 

Hazel can't quite hold Sable's gaze.

"Oooh. Yeah, I can't wait to fix mine, too, and I definitely want to give you some of the pleasure you so very much deserve."

She flushes and looks down a bit, smirking. "I... could use my mouth, if you'd like."

The confident image is ruined just a bit by her biting her lip, in a mix of excitement and fluster.

Hazel flushes incredibly pink.

"I... would like that... but not now, please? I'm still recovering from, uh, having died. It would be..."

She pauses and bites the inside of her lip, then finally continues. "... really nice. But I — it's hard, having the body in the way, I don't feel confident in front of you this way, it's... I don't know. I do want it but it's hard too. I think it'd be easier once... I've spent a little more time with you in person, getting used to being in the same space with you, being yours..." 

She shifts in and kisses Sable's forehead.

"I love you. And I want to have you in that way too. I just... need a little time to get used to having you here." 

She flushes at the forehead-kiss, then nods, smiling gently. "Extremely valid, love. You tell me when you're ready. Won't happen a moment sooner." She boops Hazel's nose on "you're", and squeezes her close. "Dysphoria demands its tax be paid, and all we can do is keep making more changes for ourselves over time, gradually claim our biology for ourselves instead of nature's mistakes. No sense in rushing."

She runs her fingers gently through Hazel's hair, squeezes her again, and then asks, "So what sort of progressing would you like to work on? I could venture out, or we could plan things from bed, or whatever else you'd like."

"I think I'd like to decorate the... house? Is this a house? It's sort of a dungeon really but it feels cozy, mostly because I'm here with you. There's another room down the hall, isn't there? We could set up a little kitchen there, maybe. You know how I am about farmer's delight."

Sable tilts her head for a moment. "I think it's not a house, but it's home because we're here together?" Then she shrugs.

"Whatever we call it, I want to build us a proper home up top eventually, and just keep this area down here for extra facilities and workshops, maybe an entrance to the mines. Until then, though, it's absolutely home, and I think decorating it is lovely."

Her fingers comb softly through Hazel's hair again.

"Yeah. Home is wherever you are, really." 

Hazel nestles in closer.

"... Hold me?" she asks. "It feels so — I almost can't believe it's real, having you here with me after so long..."

Sable nods, and squeezes Hazel tighter to her chest, smiling tenderly. "Yeah. It's the best surprise. Suddenly here we are, in a world of our own, holding each other close. We get to hold you? And all it costs is giving up a world we didn't like much anyway, and fighting some monsters to build a safe life for us?" She shakes her head in wonder.

"A bargain at twice the price."

"Yeah. It really is. I'll miss the people, but there are the villagers. We'll learn this world together."

"We will," she agrees confidently, squeezing Hazel some more.

Hazel leans in close and kisses Sable's nose.

"Precious girl," she whispers, just loud enough for Sable to hear.

She blushes and smiles, wiggling happily, then replies teasingly, "That you are."

"Let's just rest for a little while. I don't want to close my eyes in case the beds do their thing, but I definitely want to stay snuggled up with you."

"No objections here. We've got no schedule but our own, love."

She tightens her arms around Hazel and squeezes her close.

They stay snuggled up for a long while, and stay.

It's a simple quiet joy to share space and time with her loves, but... she really shouldn't just stay in bed all day.

After a while, Hazel sighs and gets up out of bed. 

"That really helped, thank you. So, um - I think you probably completed that quest to build a house when you ripped out and replaced the stairwell? What did it give you?"

"Oh, right! Yeah, the quest book vibrated at some point during that."

She pulls out her quest book and takes a look. "Yeah, we got some rewards for that, and also we've got some plushies from... the last quest."

Out of the quest book she pulls some curtains and candles, along with a fox plushie.
