Who: Requiem, Nemesis
Where: the lobby, for starters
When: Day 181

[Nemesis is waiting in the appropriate spot at the appropriate time, hair tamed and carrying a small bouquet--long stems of bluebells, lily of the valley, sunflowers, carnations, and a pink rose, tied with a tyrian and navy ribbon. She rocks back on her heels as she waits, the anticipatory type of nervous, but straightens as Requiem approaches]

Hey. Wanna head out?

[dips down to nab the water bottles--don't be a dirty bird--but otherwise keeping moving back inside to safety and warmth with a sigh]

Cold or no, I could probably get used to having my own hot tub...

[stakesthesame]

I'll cash in some points for your own hot spring. So long as I get unlimited access.

[ grabs some towels once they're back in, tossing hers over her shoulders sip she can open Nem's and wrap it around her middle. ]

[unbr8kable]

...I guess I could have my own onsen... I'd never have a reason to leave the house.

[stakesthesame]

I bet it'd look really cool too.

... I could get one. We could do swaps.

[unbr8kable]

House swap?

[takes the towel to dry herself off a little]

Now I'm trying to think of something that'd be better than in-room hot spring, and I can't think of anything.

[stakesthesame]

... getting eaten out in a hot tub?

[ a pause. ]

Nah. Too hot.

[unbr8kable]

...Hot tub, you could just turn it down...

[stakesthesame]

True. But then it's just a normal tub and that's boring.

[ toweling herself down, giving her wings a couple of flaps to get most of the water out. ]

[unbr8kable]

It'd be bubbly and warm, not bubbly and hot. ...Not sure if that's gross or not.

[stakesthesame]

Eh, just a jacuzzi tub then. Loses a lot of charm.

[ puts some pj pants on... doesn't bother to grab a shirt though since her wings are still damp.

and tosses nem a shirt and boxers that we totally definitely brought in here with us. ]

[unbr8kable]

Guess bathtime's just gotta stay pure... That's just life.

[Nemesis is not complaining about this costuming development, btw, tugging on clothes and otherwise enjoying the view]

[stakesthesame]

Hot spring's still free game, in that case.

[ pauses, glancing at her looking, then crooks a finger, beckoning. ]

[unbr8kable]

You were the one who ruled it out in the first place!

[grins back, half-sheepish, half-shameless, but does approach]

Either way, you could say lots of places are free game, so...

[stakesthesame]

That's true. I could.

[ waits for her to approach, then gently drapes her arms over nem's shoulders, loosely draped. ]

Saw you lookin'. Got something to say?

[unbr8kable]

Just appreciating the blessings of nature. That's okay, ain't it?

[and the question is serious, even if her tone isn't quite]

[stakesthesame]

[ sways very slightly, pulling her with her, and humming with a crooked smile. ]

Mmmm, I dunno. You planning on buying any of those goods you're browsing?

[unbr8kable]

[sways along with her, resting her arms gentle at Req's hips and leaning in to press a kiss a few inches below her collarbone]

Gotta say I wouldn't mind taking some home for a test drive.

[stakesthesame]

[ grins, arching slightly into it. ]

I think I can arrange that.

[ pauses ]

Once my wings are dry.

[unbr8kable]

Mm...

[leans in to kiss her other pec instead]

You need a blow dry?

[stakesthesame]

[ sighs out, light, curling her fingers in the hair at the base of nem's neck. ]

It'd speed things up...

[unbr8kable]

[smooths her hands over Req's hips, pressing a kiss to her sternum, and then the bottom of her rib cage, and then her hipbone, at the waistband of her pants]

[stakesthesame]

[ oh

letting her drift down, shivering, and. definitely interested in seeing where this is going, but also unable to resist: ]

... thought we were gonna blow dry, not blow job...

[unbr8kable]

[noses into Req's abdomen, giving a quick lap to her navel before standing up straight with a wry smile]

Ah, right, guess this'd be the opposite of getting dry... Honest mistake! C'mon.

[taps at the small of her back, ostensibly towards the bathroom]

[stakesthesame]

[ the muscles twitch a bit under her tongue, but she exhales, smiling a little and grabbing her shirt to trail after Nem. ]

[unbr8kable]

[waits, since she is obviously not trying to leave Req behind.

The bathroom is large and expansive, carrying the traditional Japanese theming into here as well. The tiling is warm to the touch and textured like traditional matting but can stand being wet. A shower and toilet are in separate stalls off to the side; sinks and a long vanity stretch through the main area, with low stools and large mirrors for grooming. Nemesis invites Req to sit, hunting down the blow dryer]
