OOM All Skate Skellig Dream Magic Weirdness -Part 10

[brave_kreyu]

Kreyu has taken a different shape than is usual for her. A dragon, yes, but one of quite different build and coloration!

This shape is more serpentine, although it still has four legs and wings. Her body and her wings are covered in feathers that are all the colors of the rainbow. She fusses with some of her wing feathers, the claws of this shape far smaller, as dexterous as human hands.

"How do I look?" she asks, a little nervous about her appearance.

Comments

[brave_kreyu]

She lifts her head to look into his eyes, to admire their colors, their shape. Perhaps it is only because of how well she knows him, but she feels she can see his personality in them too.

"Then I will indulge myself at every opportunity," she teases. "Greedy dragon, and all that."

She could almost get lost in his eyes, so deep, so lovely! But his mouth is lovely too, and the urge to kiss him is growing...

[27_53]

He can sense the urge of want! that is radiating off of his greedy dragon, but he is not worried by it - to the contrary, he has missed the feeling of her mouth on his. And while he is rather tired at the moment - cross country travel is tiring for all parties involved, not just those acting as the mode of transport - he could do with a bit of time spent with her mouth locked with his.

"Would my greedy dragon indulge her soul mate with a few kisses?"

[brave_kreyu]

"Would be happy to," she purrs. (Quite a different 'purr' than her cat shape!)

She kisses him, soft, slow, and sweet. Such bliss, wrapped around him like this, sharing kisses. Better than any liquor, any drug, this is!

[27_53]

The purr is quite different, but one that he enjoys all the same! He returns her kisses with the same soft, slow, sweet intensity - allowing his lips to linger against hers, teasing gently with a bit of his tongue, a soft tug of her lower lip with his teeth now and again.

At some point when they break for a breath, he brings a hand up to stroke her face.

"How are you doing, energy wise? Enough to get us to the next port city? How long do you think that travel will take, with favorable conditions?"

[brave_kreyu]

It takes a few moments after they break for air for her to be able to THINK clearly again. The way his lips linger, the way he teases with his tongue, tugs gently on her lower lip with his teeth, are all very pleasant but not helpful where thinking is concerned.

"I am doing quite well," she replies. "It will be no trouble to get us to the port city. With favorable conditions we may not even need to camp overnight, though it could be sunset when we land near the port."

[27_53]

"Is there a place where we might seek shelter for the night, another inn such as this? We could make camp near the outskirts if it would suit us better to go looking for your acquaintance come daybreak," he offers. "Though I would rather not sleep on the ground more than needed."

He laughs, the sound low and faintly self-depreciating. "You seem to have spoiled me to the finer things," he teases as he leans in for another kiss. "Whining about sleeping on the ground..."

[brave_kreyu]

"Plenty of inns in a seaport," she assures him. "And Artemesia was always up late during the time I was traveling with her, so I doubt that habit has changed much."

"I am glad to have spoiled you," she replies. She kisses him softly. "You deserve all the finer things in life."

[27_53]

"You are leading me to believe that more and more each day that our lives are intertwined." He tells her honestly. "It is not something I ever felt strongly, Before, that I was deserving of such things. But you have changed that."

He allows his mouth to linger against hers a moment, slow, almost lazy kisses before he speaks again.

"I am grateful for the finest thing in my life," he adds. "You, my Kreyu."

[brave_kreyu]

He can probably FEEL her pleasure, her satisfaction, that she has changed how he feels about deserving such things.

"And I am grateful for you, my love." She gives him slow, lazy kisses, runs her hands up and down his back. Her kisses are interspersed with words. "My treasure, my mate, my owl, my Skellig."

[27_53]

Even in the dim light of their room, she will be able to see him blush a bit, heat rising to his cheeks and his ears.

"You flatter me," he mutters. "But I have learned to accept that as well, your praise."

[brave_kreyu]

She LIKES it when he blushes, at least for reasons like this!

"Good." She chuckles, low. "You are even lovelier when you blush for pleasant reasons," she confides. "Want to chase the flush with my lips, follow it with my fingers..."

[27_53]

"I would not stop you if you wanted to do so," he offers casually, tipping his head back to give her better access to one side of his face, his jawline, his cheek.

He enjoys this no-pressure (not that he has ever felt OBLIGATED during any of their time together to do anything) sort of thing that they do sometimes, just playing and trading attention back and forth.

[brave_kreyu]

Her fingers are gentle as they stroke the tops of his ears, her lips soft as she kisses his jawline and his cheek. Playful pleasure and attention, without expectation, without pressure, and with no set destination.

"Could do this all night, but we will both need to sleep at some point."

[27_53]

"We will," he agrees. "Especially if we wish to push firmly to our destination tomorrow, so that we can deliver Kirke and Xenophon to safe travels of their own."

But he makes no effort to have her stop; if anything, he encourages more of it by sighing happily as she strokes over his ears. He could rest like this quite comfortably...

"...I am glad we found her alive," he adds after another few moments of quiet. "It was a concern I did not wish to voice."

[brave_kreyu]

His happy sighs are a definite encouragement for his dragon to keep doing that, so she does.

"So am I," she replies, voice quiet. "I feared she might be dead, or sold elsewhere."

[27_53]

"That would have certainly complicated things."

Wistfully, he smiles and sighs as she keeps up the motions of her touch. "And to be honest...after this flight to the next port, I wish to enjoy some relatively uncomplicated time with my wife, as we explore new territory and each other's company."

Yes, Skellig has Plans for that. But they are also EXTREMELY flexible, as he wishes to adapt to their surroundings, and just BE with her.

[brave_kreyu]

"And I wish to do the same with you."

"Discover new things with you, share in the wonders of the world, BE with you."

She doesn't have Plans, but that could change!

[27_53]

"We are going to have the most wonderful time," he says.

Resting his head besides hers on the pillow, he allows his eyes to lock with hers, studying them as she continues to stroke his cheek, teases his hair.

"Your eyes are stunning in any form you take. Dragon, eagle...even cat. I love them all. But I love them like this most," he whispers. "Even if they do not have violet shimmering in them."

[brave_kreyu]

It's her turn to flush, though it's less obvious with her skin tone. She keeps up her strokes of his cheek, her teasing of his hair.

"I am glad you love them like this the most, as this would be how they are most of the time."

Tiredness is starting to creep in at the edges, but she's not ready to sleep quite yet.

[27_53]

Neither is he.

"I know I have said this many times before," he says. "And in many different ways and situations. But I know with my whole heart that we were meant to find each other, to strengthen each other, grow alongside each other."

[brave_kreyu]

"You have, but I will never tire of hearing it," she replies.

"I hope you were not wandering the desert long, before you found me," she adds, voice soft. "I would have preferred to introduce you to our world more gently." Though if the choice was 'lost in the desert' versus 'not at all', she can't say she wouldn't have gone for the first option.

[27_53]

"I do not remember much from Before I felt your presence nearby, saw your form shimmering in the distance beyond the waves of heat." He shakes his head. "With how hot I was in my clothes, I don't think I would have lasted very long."

THAT is something he doubts either of them would like to consider. What would she have done if she found him in a worse state? Collapsed upon the sand?

"You have done a fine job of introducing me to our world," he says. "I look forward to more introductions."

[brave_kreyu]

"You are likely right, with the heat so fierce." She kisses him softly, holds him just that little bit closer.

She would have tried so hard to save him and she might even have been successful. Still, the thought of him in a worse state is a frightening one she would rather not contemplate.

"And I look forward to making them. Though you may end up introducing ME to things, since we are going to new places."

[27_53]

"We are going to discover things together," he says. "Make new memories. Fresh experiences. Brand new echoes in new places."

He yawns gently, then cuddles closer to her body, smiles as he settles in.

"There is nobody else in this universe or any other that I would desire to do that with."

[brave_kreyu]

"Thank you, love," she says, voice soft.

She yawns shortly after he does! It must be contagious.

She cuddles just that little bit closer. "Could sleep, but want to touch you," she murmurs.
