It is about halfway through the third hour of the fifteenth day of Lucette's attempt to reorganize her grandfather's library. The project is moving at an acceptable pace overall, though she's starting to question the wisdom of having scheduled the whole thing down to the hour during day three (hour four).
"No... I.... I am not entirely certain what the right way to respond to having... all of this... pointed at me is, but I really quite enjoy it."
They could be kissing! It will distract from their conversation but the conversation was not as good as kissing!
Kissing Annie is really good. The mind reading doesn't actually respond to changing emotions, but it lets Lucette know the broad strokes about how Annie generally feels about her. Normally, Lucette imagines, emotions viewed this way might feel small but in this case it's like viewing a great mountain in the distance.
"...I would like to do more things that you would enjoy in a similar manner to kissing."
"...gosh. Okay. You've gotta tell me, if I spook you, I won't be able to hear it if you just make a noise that isn't a word, okay?" Is the door locked, she can tell from here.
In that case Annie can get underway on causing there to be fewer clothes in this situation.
Normally, Lucette would be anxious about making a mistake, or misleading Annie, or her ability to actually make sure Annie was having a nice time but, so long as they are touching, it is very obvious to her that those worries aren't really all that important. Annie will love her regardless of what happens, and it's exhilarating and a little bit terrifying and feels so very nice.
And it's not like taking off clothes with a female friend is all that strange anyways.
The particular manner in which Annie does so may be strange, though.
Annie can detect people's bodies under their clothes without the clothes interfering, with her present sensory layout. She isn't seeing anything new. But she is touching some new stuff.
"It's okay, I would just like to do things to you. And see your reactions to me doing those things."
"I haven't actually had sex before so I don't know exactly what I will like. I think it is pretty safe for you to guess though."
"I think a lot of them are plausible. Probably don't like, bite me, I think I can guess in advance I don't like that."
