Blinking the tears out of her eyes as she woke up was easier then she expected, as was just feeling herself wake properly to letting herself wake properly. It wasn't as... deeply satisfying as with the cultivation circle, but it was easier to have the comfort and settledness beyond just the deep sleep of oneness with the world. 

So. 

Let's try this. 

She let herself flow through the meal - throwing together whatever perked up her fancy to complete the sandwich, eating, before airboxing through a cultivation routine, listening to some lofi beats on her own. 

The circle helped the rate of the formation pretty well, so she could be actually pretty gentle, and not even nesscarily rely on the flow of the katas to bring her energy ever higher, taking advantage of the more discrete movements and opportunities for rest that don't have to be quite in motion. 

This was slower, of course - the harmony of action not really multiplying in on itself, but rather the simple balancing of the stances and techniques themselves added a little bit of that extra texture to her energy, and that added up, eventually. 

Really, that was the whole point of this - not to get the fastest possible time for what, bragging rights? No, it was more just to get the chance to add that extra strength, keep loose and ready to build higher while staying whole. 

She needed to loosen up - not just to get more room to take advantage of the quickly growing experience she was gaining physically, but to just wander in and out of training in a way that was hers. 

It was harder said then done though, and even with this being easier, it'd probably be her last session for the day. 

She'd hang out, flow between this 'til the senior came, she expected, as the hours pass 'til a thread forms in the gap between one heartbeat and the next, and it slots into the little pause for the next. 

Empty everything out;
hold fast to your stillness.
Even though all things are stirring together,
watch for the movement of return.
The ten thousand things flourish and then each returns to the root from which it came.
Returning to the root is stillness.
Through stillness each fulfils its destiny.
That which has fulfilled its destiny becomes part of the Always-so.
To be aware of the Always-so is to awaken.

Ooh got the alert that the pills have been delivered!

@Rabid Ruby Smelting Savant @Moonsilver 

Should be at your door? 

Yep!
Ty for that, resources are always a lil annoying to get normally and this'll help her good bit.

Yeah - thank you for that. 

...Could you tell me a bit about how using this works? It's all a little vague, at the moment.

No problem - more or less they're just pills that will recover your energy - at foundation establishment it's nearly impossible to deplete the energy regeneration you get faster then you recover it, so don't worry about that. You'lll still have to worry about strain, to a degree, since they aren't healing persay, but more or less you can just pop them in and go harder. Usually you can get another strand or two a day, using something like that, and you'll feel a good bit less drained throughout the process. 

You're really too modest, Steely Student. 

The pills will help your constitution a little if you keep them, since it will help with your overall energy circulation being something a little higher, and they are of a high enough quality that they shouldn't introduce any impurities. 

ducks head

I'm just trying to do my work properly ^^

Thank you - seems like that will be really helpful, especially considering how hard it's been hitting me right now... 

Crashed into bed a few times just because it's a lot, though I think having the 7 threads is worth it. 

Yeah they really help with that!

There's ways to go harder, and still have that, and everyone has there own stories of how hard they got knocked out, but it'll really help with the day to day!

She sends a DM to Moonsilver. 

nervous fidget

You know that Ruby's crushing on you, right? 

She'd seen everything, of course, the whole thing was something more then just a physical desire, of course - the stares, the teasing, the light little touches to guide her where she was almost certainly being more handsy then she needed to be, the warm pets, the room service, even that... 

She blushed horribly. 

Even that kiss to her forehead she'd done. 

She was just so kind and...

Just say it. 

....I know.

And do you want her~?

She flushes hard, and lets the memory of her lovely voice and awe-inspiring abs and the flushes and frankly sexual stares and stalemates as they clashed wills, the way she felt stronger and taller and brighter next to her. 

...I do.

Gosh I wish I could see your face~♡

blush

I suppose you'll have to drop by to check us out then.

Eeee you even think of the two of you as 'us'. 

So cute~!

But um. 

presses fingers against each other nervously

Did you know that Ruby's a fearsome futanari who destroys damsels on her dick intersex?

...

BLUSH

You can just tell, can't you~? 

That she has a bitch breaking pussy pounding cunt crushing mind melting COCK hidden in those tight little panties of hers.

...Her hand wandered down to her sex, slowly stroking as she read it and tried to avoid blue screening to teasing too much.

Impossibly enough, her words struck true - they were tight and stretched in a dozen odd ways and frankly she just smelled like the sort of person who would of course have that tucked away. 

Her free hand typed out slowly as she let out a low moaning sigh from the gentle pleasure of her stimulation.

...yeah...~

GIGGLE

You've got it bad, girl~

Let me tell you a little secret. 

You're going to get you the yearning yin craving cunt cultivation method. You're going to desperately desire her dick so seriously your soul'll sing of sex solely. You're going to get that pleading pussy of your plundered prettily alongside your pride. Your soul, your sex, your self with saturate with her superior seed, and sluttily surrender to the salacious smelting savant~ <3
