When Hyacinth comes home to her new apartment for the first time after a long day at university, it's to the sight of moving bots just finishing dropping off the last of her stuff and moving furniture into place. The full-immersion VR pod her parents gave her is safely hooked up in the pod room, her bed is in her bedroom, she has chairs and a desk and some bookshelves. Clothes are mostly still in boxes, waiting to be hung up in the closet. Holovid and a cozy chair occupy the living room. She doesn't have any food in the small kitchen yet.
... Sharing a room with this girl is feeling a little dangerous, the same way holding the red-hot poker felt a little dangerous...
Sable offers Sin her arm and leads the way upstairs, and then down the hall to their room.
She takes a breath, controls her reaction, and proceeds down the corridor on Sable's arm. She's a bit stiff.
That's okay. Sable can keep up some idle chatter about considerations she's balancing in designing her shadow cutter, on the way to the room, to help her be a bit more at ease.
Soon enough, they're looking at a medium-sized room, big enough not to be cramped but not really spacious either. Two beds sit against one wall, and a desk, two chairs, and a mirror sit across. A sign in the hall indicates that the bathroom is at the end of the hall.
Despite herself, Hyacinth finds herself heading towards the mirror.
It's silly to be preoccupied with her new appearance, but...
But still...
There she is, petite and pretty, with her braids and fuzzy ears and fluffy tail, the pretty little fae fox the outside world tried to deny her.
It feels so good to be her. She'd almost forgotten it, it feels so natural. But seeing herself in the mirror, her real herself, makes her feel... amazed. Thrilled. Her stomach is full of butterflies and her whole body seems to tingle a little. The flush on her face is heavy and hot but she doesn't care at all.
She blushes and smiles. "Feels pretty great, doesn't it? I remember when that was new for me, when it was still such a blissful surprise to see."
"Oh! You might not know, but you can download your in-game appearance to your pod, use it in your local environment too. Should be an option in the menu."
"I am so doing that. I tried to make a - custom avatar for myself - a couple times years ago, but nothing really... fit, until..."
She laughs. "I'm amazed I was so oblivious."
She walks over to one of the beds, still tugging Sable along on her arm.
"I..." She looks down at her feet. "I feel so good. And you've been nothing but good to me. I hardly know you, but..."
Well this is a welcome surprise. She leans close to gently return the kiss. "What's the point of power or skill if not to be good to people, especially people you enjoy?"
"Yeah," she says softly.
This is a dreamworld.
It's okay.
She can do whatever she wants.
... And what she wants is this lovely girl.
She kisses her again. She doesn't know how this works but she thinks she can figure it out.
Well how about they tumble onto the bed together, and Sable deepens the kiss a bit, eager but patient, mixed with little playful nips? How about Sable's hand strokes along Hyacinth's back, smooth and gentle and firm, grounding her in this moment here?
Ooooooooooooooooooh. That would be lovely.
She presses in, eager for skin contact. It's a lot. It's a lot like holding the poker was a lot, such a wash of sensation all across her body, but she's here for it.
It is a litttttttle hard to handle all of this at once but her anxious brain can just shut up.
Sable's happy to help shut up an anxious brain, such as with a thigh pressing between Sin's, or a hand slipping down to squeeze her ass just a bit, all while continuing to kiss her tenderly.
