She doesn't recognise that tree.
She's been here before, she's not that far from the estate, this isn't some unknown place. She must've taken a wrong turn, of course, but where? She should probably just try to retrace her steps, Jaol will be incredibly mad at her...
"No!" Tetsuma's blush returns full-force. "I - want to stop being embarrassed. And kiss more. And things."
"Okay. I don't really understand why you're embarrassed so I'm not sure how to help."
"I think - challenging myself helps, as long as I've planned on it. It usually does." After all, she's been getting less embarrassed about just looking over the conversation, and she's way less embarrassed than the day before. "Like adjusting to cold water. And - I'm flustered because I'm really attracted to you and my brain's failing to handle it properly, and I don't know how to express - stuff."
"I mean, what's it failing to handle, exactly? And you could try to express stuff one at a time, or stream-of-consciousness?"
"Being attracted! And wanting things. I don't know what to do or say, and then I start thinking and get into - loops. In my head. I want to say stuff right and everything comes out wrong when I'm embarrassed so I get more flustered. It's - less of a problem around people I'm not attracted to, because I'm not thinking about - things."
"People don't understand me? And I don't explain things as well as they are in my head."
"...Like the underwear thing? I kept saying stuff in the wrong order. And, like, not knowing how to flirt with you. And there's - stuff I want to talk about - that my brain's not cooperating on."
"You don't need to flirt with me, we're already dating," she points out.
"Before we got together! And I'd like to - more than kisses - and my brain's failing at the steps in between 'kisses' and 'more' but I think flirting's involved."
"Doesn't need to have any flirting involved. It can evolve pretty naturally from kisses by just varying where exactly you're kissing."
Tetsuma's hands wander some, shyly, and she gets bolder whenever Dayo reacts well. Still above the waist, but they are topless. It does take a bit for her to get anywhere very interesting, though. Her kisses aren't wandering past shoulders and necks yet.
Shoulders and necks are quite enough for Dayo to be vocally appreciative.
Eee!
Tetsuma's unlikely to wander much more on her own initiative quite yet, though she'll be rather happy with any wandering Dayo does.
!!!
Tetsuma blushes and giggles a lot, but is absolutely delighted, especially now that she's got some idea what she's doing.
Dayo has all the ideas and delighting Tetsuma is her primary goal.
Tetsuma occasionally has to bury her face in Dayo's shoulder and half-melt until she calms down a bit, but she's having so much fun. (Especially since it's hard for physical expressiveness like kisses to come out wrong. She's still unclear on expressing Certain Thoughts, but now she's more certain Dayo won't mind, either the thoughts or the stumbling towards them.)
