"... but you could be."

"What, you're going to teach me out of the goodness of your heart? For free? Day in, day out, until I know everything? And besides, it's a woman's profession. I'd never be taken seriously. My family would laugh at me." 

... Lily falls quiet again. 

Something feels wrong about that, but she can't really tell what it is.

Uuloo is back! Just as promised.

She slinks into the campsite, her body glistening in the camp's manalight.

She makes an inquisitive chirrup as she sinks to her knees between Lily and William, reaching a hand out to each. What are their urges saying to her?

Lily is largely content at the moment.

William's aroused, with a slight sickly tinge of desperation.

Well, now Uuloo is on her hands and knees, shiny purple ass and drooling vulva on display right in front of him.

She gently twerks her hips at William while trying to listen a little harder to Lily, just incase there is something there, just quiet.

William looks from Lily to Uuloo, then sighs and starts making a go of it.

Lily's gaze darts away. 

Okay, she's a little aroused now.

Uuloo wiggles in happy pleasure as William starts fucking her again.

She chirps invitingly at Lily and holds out a hand toward he doll girl, shifting so her big soft glistening breasts jiggle appealingly with each of William's thrusts.

She... takes the hand, largely because that is What You Do When Someone Offers You Their Hand. 

William closes his eyes and tries to focus on the sex and not on the fact that he's being watched. 

... though the being-watched isn't precisely bad...

What if Uuloo arches upward and pulls Lily into a squishy hug so Lily can feel every jiggle that goes through her as William fucks her. And what if she wraps her mouth flaps gently around Lily's neck to wetly squeeze and massage Lily's throat and spine?

Lily blushes and goes all tense.

Why is she embarrassed. Why is she hesitating. 

... She doesn't want William to see she's artificial. That's still... a secret she doesn't...

Why, precisely, is she hiding that, when instead she could be having sex?

Because it would be potentially disastrous for her, that's why. 

She pulls away.

Uuloo makes a confused, slightly sad, chirrup sound. Or maybe that's concern?

She's smart. She knows and understands full-well that humans have more to their inner lives than she can hear, and that this state they get into where they fight against what they say they want, is normal for them. But it is still confusing and upsetting when it happens. Kamryn never gets like that, so Uuloo isn't used to it.

All she can do is keep trying, keep offering, keep being an appealing sight.

Lily steps back and leans against a tree and sits.

William, meanwhile, is entirely occupied with pumping his cock into Uuloo.

Lily closes her eyes and does her best not to listen.

That's even more confusing and upsetting.

Uuloo wiggles sadly, and makes a low mournful noise to punctuate her orgasm, her pussy fluttering around William's cock, sucking and pulsing like it's clinging to him for comfort.

She'll just have to wait for the others to return, and hope they can help Lily with whatever's wrong.

Lily presses her face into her knees and tries not to think too much.

Kamryn, Talance, Yosaphen, Lygos, and Amira emerge from the woods into the small clearing.

Lygos spits Yosaphen out. The Gazer gives the Armor Mimic a pout. Talance shapeshifts out of her leather bikini and goes over to refresh the manalight.

Kamryn spots Lily, opposite where William is fucking Uuloo.

"We're back," she says unnecessarily, peering at Lily's curled-up form.

She sheds her own leather bikini, dropping it on the ground, then goes over to make sure Lily is okay.

Lily looks up and manages a weak smile.

"... hi, Kamryn. How did it go?"

Kamryn crouches down.

"I'm not sure? I think it went well. The 'noble' we met did promise to spread the warning for us, and gave us some advice, but then he told Amira to join us and, uh," she glances over her shoulder at Amira.
