They wind up staying two full cycles of the Moon with Tyr's tribe.
Time enough to learn the various dances, share recipes, race through the Teeth, make friends, share stories, BELONG.
It might even be enough time for Skellig to sort out how he feels about being among other people with wings!
Tyr clasps Skellig's forearm in farewell. "I would call you my brother, if you would permit it?" he says, voice soft.

no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 08:55 pm (UTC)"I can not imagine what must have gone through the minds of those high priests," she says, voice quiet. "Offering themselves up, believing that there was a small chance their Goddess would leave them damaged or dead."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 09:48 pm (UTC)"Even for ordinary folk who would attempt to appease their Gods, let alone those who would claim to be entirely faithful and devout in their actions." He pauses, considering. "That is a level of trust - and risk taking - that is not done lightly."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 10:07 pm (UTC)She flushes, remembering. "Enkidu was the first, was explaining matters to me during the ceremony. His heart would beat so fast, when I was close. He told me many times that he would be glad to serve me in whatever manner I desired, that his purpose was to see that I was pleased." She flushes darker. "Once, he asked if I would prefer it if he was on his knees."
"My...innocence must have confused him so, I did not even know the scents that follow along with human arousal, then."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 10:18 pm (UTC)Then a thought strikes him, and he is curious...
"So...if before you met me, you did not fully understand what it meant...or the ways to find...pleasure..." He ponders this slightly. "Will our encounter in your temple be the first time that the actions have been...completed...within the space?"
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 10:26 pm (UTC)"The Ring Islands might be QUITE fertile, this year." Her gaze turns teasingly coy. "With all the unrest in the region, it would be wise to shore up supplies against hardship however we can."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 10:37 pm (UTC)He rests his chin gently on the top of her head, closing his eyes and inhaling the scent of her - the soaps and oils on her body, the sweat from their efforts today with the fight against Gorgon, hints of the herbs, food and drink from earlier...all of it is just a hint clearer to his senses, more vivid.
"Look forward to our time in the temple space," he mutters playfully, kissing her hair. "Finding our own spaces to explore and pleasure each other."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 10:48 pm (UTC)Things are a bit brighter, more vivid for her too, though the drug isn't affecting her as much.
"Will be fun," she agrees, a slight purr in her voice. "Tempted to soak up your attention right here until we both fall asleep."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 10:52 pm (UTC)"Like that idea," he says. "No desire to get on my knees, though," he quips. "So maybe now that both my hands are free..."
He wraps one arm loosely around her body, bringing his hand up to settle on her breast, kneading gently. "Could stay just like this for awhile?"
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 10:59 pm (UTC)She gasps in pleasure as he gently kneads her breast. "Yes, just like this." Her hands reach backward, wanting to touch him.
"I have the very best husband," she purrs, slightly smug. "All to myself."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 11:06 pm (UTC)Skellig draws one leg up to rest his inner thigh against the outside of her leg, giving her easier access to his skin. He is still quite relaxed and sated - an interesting effect of the moly, perhaps? But quite comfortable, and a different sense of arousal is humming beneath the surface of his senses.
(He wants to focus on the little things - his fingertips on her breast, her heartbeat in his ears, the way her breath hitches when he teases her nipple with a fingertip.)
"The things I will do to you when we are in the temple..." he muses softly. "The ways I will find to worship you, my most precious Goddess...the Ring Islands will be most grateful, when we are through with our rituals."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-05 11:53 pm (UTC)It COULD be the Moly, given that Skellig is neither human nor dragon, or the Moly in combination with what remains in his system from earlier. It's not doing much of anything for Kreyu, it never has, but she's quite content to enjoy these little things he's doing. She moans softly after her breath hitches as he teases a nipple. "Look forward to your worship, and to rewarding such worship thoroughly," she purrs.
Her voice drops low, wicked, tempting. "Should be able to have me in THAT dress at least twice. The Goddess at your mercy, perhaps? Or you at hers? Both?"
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 12:19 am (UTC)With her neck exposed, he shifts his body slightly and leans down to press his lips against her skin there, kissing along the side while he trails his fingertips down her throat.
"Crying out my name in ecstasy as I bring her to her release, her shouts echoing off the walls of that sacred space. Then I would turn myself over to her, let her do as she pleases with me. Maybe bind my wrists above my head, while she teases me in all the ways she knows make my knees quiver, my cock hard for her?"
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 12:27 am (UTC)"All lovely plans to sate our appetites," she breathes. "Might dance for you, when I have you tied up, just a little appetizer. Won't make you come without my hands, my mouth, my cunt, will be too hungry for that."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 12:47 am (UTC)A hard shiver runs down his spine and he laughs, a little surprised at just how visceral his reaction is to merely the image in his mind.
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 12:50 am (UTC)"I shall give you plenty of my hips, then," she promises.
Is he starting to feel a bit sleepy? Surely not.
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 02:00 am (UTC)Surely he is not feeling sleepy, when he has her right here in his lap, basically a puddle under his fingertips? Surely not. And that is definitely not a yawn that escapes him, and another shiver that threatens his spine.
"Never can get enough of you, full of desire always."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 02:04 am (UTC)Not that she wouldn't enjoy more touches, but rest is important!
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 02:09 am (UTC)"But you feel so very nice," he mutters playfully, pressing a kiss to her jawline. "Know I should, but don't want to move, 'cept to touch you."
(For as much as he's protesting, he won't argue the subject, especially if she pulls him along to bed with her.)
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 02:16 am (UTC)She grins. "Wrap yourself around me, dream of all the ways you'll make me cry out in pleasure after we've had a nap?"
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 02:26 am (UTC)It is like every inch of his skin suddenly has extra nerve endings, because when he touches her it is as if tiny, bright flashes of energy crackle towards his core - these hands have mapped her body dozens, hundreds of times, but never has it felt quite like this beneath his touches.
His sigh is slightly dramatic as he shifts beneath her, presses a kiss to the back of her shoulder.
"...will wrap myself around you in our bed."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 02:29 am (UTC)She touches him now, touch meant as much to soothe as to give pleasure. "Feels good, you wrapped around me like this."
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 02:54 am (UTC)He snuggles into her body, and it is not long before his breathing evens out and he relaxes into sleep, and into a dream - a shared dream, that they will find themselves in together.
It is somewhere that is perhaps the temple? Perhaps the Lair? It is familiar in some senses, but in other areas, not so much - but Skellig does not seem to mind not knowing fully where he is. All that matters is that she is there as well, and she is looking at him like that.
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 03:04 am (UTC)She's sprawled on a pile of silks, cushions, and furs, naked, giving him her most sultry look. (There is a platform of some kind under all of the bedding. It might be an altar, it might be the bed platform in the Lair. It might even be changing its nature from time to time, as things in dreams sometimes do.)
"What is your desire, hm?" she asks, her voice a low purr.
no subject
Date: 2025-01-06 03:49 am (UTC)His knees hit the edge of the pile and he pauses, bracing his hands against the edge.
"But my main desire, my greatest desire...is simply you."
