In the morning, after they've both bathed, eaten, and they are finally dressed, she's explaining her plans for the morning to Skellig.

"I'm going to be doing two things at once," she explains. "A very overbooked artist has graciously squeezed me in for some henna work, so I'll be gone for a few hours. I'd bring you along, but she's not comfortable around men." Kreyu has her SUSPICIONS as to why, but she doesn't know.

"And since chatting is very much a part of the process, I'll be seeing what I can find out about any recent pirate attacks."

"I am eager to find those," he says softly, glancing up at her with a devious grin. "In due time, of course."

Skellig continues to trace the patterns as they twist and wind up her arm, working carefully to follow every line as best he can, not afraid to double back if he thinks he's 'missed' a pathway.

His voice grows a bit more serious, but his mood is still positive.

"Our marriage will be filled with happiness," he says. "I have no doubt of that. We both bring such joy to the other simply by being near one another and by sharing the most basic of experiences. I think our foundation is strong. I am sure there may be times when we will be tested..." he thinks briefly of his conversation earlier with Elihu. "But I have belief that no matter the storms we may face, we would weather them with strength, grow from the experience."

He presses his lips against her palm again, before bringing her hand to rest against his chest.

"I will hold you to that," Skellig says seriously. "As you know...I am quite fond of crying your name out in ecstasy, with the moon and stars as my witnesses..."

He laughs wickedly, and shifts his body to better angle himself on the couch to allow him to reach over and lift her legs up, draping them over his lap. This gives him better access to her feet with his hands, and there are more designs here to trace.

"I would use some of my preening oils to work into your skin, but I do not wish to disrupt the henna ink until it has set fully," he says, as he reaches for her feet and begins to rub over the soles with his fingertips, a gentle massaging touch. "I would not risk our happiness."

Plus, she has said before she does not mind his hands being slightly 'rough'.

"Are you preparing me for encountering pirates...by having me follow a map to seek out buried treasures?"

His fingertips move up her ankles, the bottoms of her calves, working slowly upwards towards her knees - grinning each time she sighs or makes one of those pleased sounds he loves ever so much.

(But as slow as he is working, it is obvious that he is playfully teasing, drawing it out on purpose.)

"I did run across some stalls selling oils today," he says. "I did not buy any, though, as yours are much more potent."

Skellig considers her question and confusion. "I have always thought that they hid it, to keep it from others? At least that is how I have heard it in stories..."

He tilts his head, narrowing his eyes slightly - because now he is a bit confused now at himself - because this is a memory, but he is not quite certain where it has come from within his mind. Is it from a past experience? From something he has learned or heard from Before he arrived here, in the desert?

Shaking his head, he refocuses his attentions on her legs.

"I have never been much for following maps," he admits. "I prefer to wander."

Even with the lines running out, Skellig does not allow his explorations to cease - once his fingertips have reached the end of the 'map' he has to work with, he allows his hands to skim higher, working up her thighs, beneath the fabric of her dress. He is nearly at the edge of what he can reach, with the way they are sitting and he can't see through fabric.

So his fingertips will have to do the discovering.

"There are a few things that would make this easier..." he mutters playfully, teasing at her skin on the underside of her thigh. "But I am in no desire to rush."

If she were to straddle his lap, for starters. Or if she got rid of this dress and most of her jewelry to avoid damage, also. But he does like the way she looks, adorned in it all, kohl dark around her eyes...

"That is an option to consider," he says quietly, his voice a little rough around the edges as he watches her remove the pieces she has on. (And shifts just a little in a way she knows will send shivers straight to his core.) "I may have you do that, once I have found some of these hidden pieces of artwork..."

While she is still working on the jewelry, he slides his hands up underneath her dress, settling them at her hips.

"I do have another idea, for once we have shifted our...endeavours...to the bed," he continues. "One of my other gifts for you will pair quite nicely with these flowers I have gathered and strewn about..."

Skellig bites his lower lip, thinking of her and those silks beneath her body, surrounded by delicate petals (he would move them to ensure none would crush and stain the delicate fabric but just to look at her a moment in all her glory...) and with that smoldering look in her eyes, flashing violet with desire.

"And I like the look of that," Skellig replies in response the reveal of the artwork she has added to her body.

His hands skim upwards from her hips, dancing briefly along her ribcage before coming to rest as he lightlys cup her breasts in his palms. These designs may be simpler, but there are still lines to trace with his fingertips, which he intends to do - and he does, gently outlining the 'petals', to start.

"The merchant at the flower stall asked me today, which type I wanted. Which type my wife liked best," he clarifies. "I told them that we were only recently married...I do not know what flower is your favorite. But I wished for the widest variety he could give me of the most rare and exotic types...because that is what best reminds me of you."

"Why the rare and exotic ones?"

Skellig tips his head, looks at her with a slightly crooked smile on his face as he contemplates his response. On one hand, he could argue that she is a rare and exotic creature herself - a dragon - the first he had ever met, in a faraway land! On the other hand, he could debate with her how he is also a rare creature, the only one (except maybe the Winged Folk on this side of the sea...he needs to ask her about them, sometime, can't forget that) of his kind. And it just makes sense...

Instead he simply sighs and laughs a little under his breath.

"My mind is wandering tonight," he whispers, somewhat apologetically as he leans in to press his lips against hers. His kiss is gentle at first, lingering and soft - as his fingertips curl around her nipples, teasing. "I just have so much running through it, I cannot seem to focus."

Perhaps kissing her deeper will help?

"I eventually plan on having you laid out beneath me on that bed of ours," Skellig tips his head in the direction of the bed. "So I can fully explore your body, inch by inch...trace those lines with more than my fingertips..."

Her efforts to work his kilt free will eventually be successful, but he is not making it easy for her - not with the way he shifts his mouth to kiss down the side of her neck and the top of her shoulder, doing his best to be distracting.

While one hand remains on her breast, he drops the other back to her forearm, fingertips trailing over the vines and knots.

"Do you know how hard it was for me not to trace these lines beneath our table in the tavern, while you were sat beside me?" He whispers.

"Your brother was likely the only reason I did not," he says. "During our earlier conversation, before you arrived...he had spoken to me about the fact that anything I told him would not offend his...sensibilities."

Skellig pauses his lips against her shoulder briefly, as well as the movements of his fingertips along her arm.

"But regardless of that, I did not wish to put you in a position where you might have been uncomfortable. It would not have been appropriate. This..." he strokes lightly over her skin. "This is for us alone."

"I intend to fulfill all of today's fantasies, this evening." Skellig smiles. "And perhaps a few others I have been holding in reserve."

Her straddled across his lap like this is lovely, but it does limit exactly where he can reach with his mouth and hands. Yet, he has no desire to move them just quite this moment. Not when she is so close to him, and her hands are so close to sensitive parts of his anatomy.

"The first of those is kissing you until I can see a hint of that violet flash across your eyes," he adds. "Let a bit of the dragon out to play."

Pleasured shivers ripple down his spine when her fingertips wander across his lower back, an automatic response (even if this 'version' of his soul does not understand why exactly he reacts that way) to being touched with such care and desire in a place where only she has done so with her hands. It is a pleasure that he would struggle to explain to her why it feels so good, but it just does.

"More of that," he mutters softly against her lips during a 'break' for air.

(At least they are remembering to breathe, this time. For now.)

"Just cannot get enough of your hands on me," he adds. "No matter where they are."
