( is this the consequence of being so insistent with himeko earlier? likely, plausible even. nevertheless, she will have her reckoning. )

( her expression hasn't changed at all, save for the slightest narrowing of her eyes in dan heng's direction. otherwise, she-regrettably-follows after the knight. ) . . . yes, by all means.

. . . ( she'll remember that. )

no, and you certainly don't have to; i was once a knight of beauty myself, before my tragic backstory scorned me so... ( cue a little sigh, for dramatic flair. )

maybe not, but you certainly kiss in much more public spaces, don't you?

( she would say something more, but even she has some tact. besides, she's always listening, even when people think she's not. )

when it comes to her, most certainly not. though... are you really one to talk?

what can i say? i'm efficient~.

💋

don't worry, sweetest scarlet, i'll find your hiding spot eventually~.

it's a good thing i like it rough. ✨

if i cover my eyes, then i'd be barred from enjoying the view, himeko. i certainly won't be doing that... unless you want to make me~.

can i not appreciate such beautifully sculpted artwork when it's presented to me like this?

my heavenly cushion. 🙏

she doesn't take part in these often, but a lovely #thighthusday to everyone from the resident navigator.

@contrivingwidow.bsky.social "But these bodies do know joy, and they know it by acknowledging and honoring the tribulations they outlived."

hm. perhaps i overdid it a touch. ( she doesn't really sound ashamed about it. )

jealous? ( smirking. whether she was being truthful or not remains to be seen. )

it is far more than lust, bladie... i see the appeal in a woman whom loathes my very existence. even after... prior evening's engagements.

oooh? bladie... only someone who can see the appeal would be able to say that genuinely...

see? at least someone understands.

wouldn't you be, as well? there's something so alluring about that fiery temperament of hers, isn't there?

i can't help being captivated by her. truly, if she did not follow akivili, i would assume idrila would be her aeon of choice.

oh, how unfortunate.... running off before i could properly steal a kiss. no matter, the thrill of the chase is my favorite part~.

× maybe thigh worship kafhime will be on the menu today after all---
