Stage 31: Of Cats and Stings and Other Things....

While stepping out the door to begin training, specifically combat training in the gymnasium of the apartment complex, you have been interrupted by a cat. Namely, one Rie, a white nekomata with kami-eyes above her own eyes and two tails. She apparently has been waiting for someone to come out, because she's in more-or-less what passes as her human form: white not-quite-decent-enough-for-school uniform, long white hair, and her tails waving back and forth slowly. She flicks an ear and blinks at you with chartreuse cat's eyes. And untied sneakers. Also white. With white ankle socks with a ruffle at the top. She herself is olive skinned which just makes her look very odd.

While Kiku-chan's first reaction was such terror she screamed and is currently hyperventilating into her sister's breasts, and everyone else's reaction was to be ready for a fight (though no one would be able to tell if Akari was ready for a fight except you), your own reaction is a little less about the cat than the ear-piercing shriek that startled you. Rie, who seems nonplussed by this situation (because, well, cat) is currently standing on the walkway in front of your door.

[] Hello again, Rie-sama. Can I help you?
[] Rie-sama, this is my family; family, Rie-sama.
[] Sorry, Rie-sama, it's a phobia, nothing personal.
[] I trust the takoyaki was good?
[] Is there a problem Rie-sama?

“Please excuse my niji-chan, she had a bad experience – it's a phobia, not you personally.” Though you really don't know for certain, it's a fairly safe bet. Rie makes a sort of patting or rubbing gesture with one hand, easily reminiscent of a cat batting away something deemed unimportant or uninteresting. “Rie-sama, may I introduce my household? Family Ryuu, this is Rie-sama, the nekomata I mentioned earlier.”

The atmosphere relaxes slightly, and Er Yin-sensei's tail lowers significantly, but Kiku-chan remains huddled against her younger but bigger sister, her breaths coming far too quickly than is good for her.

“I hope that you enjoyed the takoyaki, Rie-sama....was there something I could help you with?” You don't invite her in, but then she doesn't seem interested in coming in either. You're not really certain you could stop her; nekomata are strange even by youkai standards, and she's no half-breed.

“Well, just 'cause it'd be bad manners if I didn't tell you, those other guys put up a buncha posters about you.” She turns around and hoists herself onto the railing and then turns around the hard way, hand-over-hand and setting her behind on it in what can't be a comfortable way, especially with her skirt riding up that high. “They're offering rewards for information on you and that girl there.” To your surprise she points at Akari, rather than Kiki-hime, who looks as surprised as you feel. Akari looks at you and shrugs mildly.

“That's....very kind of you, Rie-sama. Thank you. May I ask which others did that?” Her belly button is really cute; you wonder if she's claw you of you stroked her belly.

“Uh huh.” Yui snickers and Akari gently hushes her.

“Which others put posters of myself and my friend up?” Akari blinks at the comemnt and looks at Yui, who sticks her tongue out at Akari. Akari bows apologetically over one hand, looking contrite.

Rie, on the other hand, blinks at you and shrugs. “The other group of people like you, except there was one of her kind in charge.” This time she points at Yui, who is gripping her taiko sticks lightly in one hand, and she looks startled. “It was a boy though, not a girl. One straight horn.”

Akari murmurs softly to you, “Hauko-san.” You nod shortly.

Hopping onto the railing, Rie turns and crouches on it using her hands as well as her feet, placed one ion front of the other and looks sideways towards you. “I just wanned you to know so you didn't think I'd gone back on our deal, y'know? It was delicious, by the way, thanks.” She yawns and the lifts one hand and stretches out her arm, looking at the front and back of her hand. “Seeya.”

Er Yin speaks softly, but Rie-sama looks towards her, her ears twitching. “May we even trust such a powerful creature, Ryukusa-sama? I was told they are capricious....”

[] She's still youkai, and she's accepted my offerings, so yes.
[] Capricious maybe, not foolhardy or cruel.

[X] ~I~ trust her, but no one else is obligated to do so.

Rie blinks calmly, her expression very bland, but she is staying very still as well. “I trust her nature – she's a youkai and a powerful one at that, and she accepted my offering. We have a friend in common too, so....yes, I think we can trust her but I'm not going to say everyone has to.” You spread your hands expansively, a mild shrug that is more for Rie than anyone else, especially since the person you are replying to can't see it. “While they may be capricious, I've never met one that was foolhardy or outright cruel. Cats might be, but nekomata aren't deliberately cruel. More like incidentally vicious.”

Rie smiles, showing sharp little fangs as well as perfectly white teeth.

Kiki-hime looks at the strange white cat – whose kami-eyes, the dark spots along her eyebrows in cat form, have become two black dots painted above her eyes – and then takes your arm gently in one hand, still holding her sister tightly with her other arm. “But what if they hurt her?”

You look at Kiki-hime, confused.

“I mean....what if they hurt her, for warning us, or not telling them about us?” You frown mildly, then look to Rie, seeing what she thinks of the concern.

Rie-sama blinks in surprise as if the worry was something she hadn't expected, looks at you, then back at Kiki-hime, and then at the shaking girl Kiki-hime holds tightly. Her reply is calm, well thought out, and truly enlightening. “Nyan,” she says calmly in Japanese rather than making the actual cat-sound, before she starts trotting along the railing of the walkway. Her transformation to simple, ordinary seeming cat was so sudden you halfway think she doesn't actually transform, and simply lets you see her as a human sometimes.

All you can really do is shrug to Kiki-hime, who is still holding her terrified sister. “Was that really....?”

She shakes her head. “They all do that to her, even if they're not like Rie-sama in form.” Cats in general, she means. You didn't expect a Fire breathing dragonette to have such a commonplace phobia. Though, you have to wonder a little.

You step into the house and close the door most of the way, and step close to Kiku-chan and Kiki-hime. You slowly slide your hand into that fantastically soft hair, stroking the back of her neck slowly, firmly, feeling the tension in those muscles and the shaking of her body. You repeat the gesture several more times, until you start feeling the tension lessen.

“Miko-Kiku-chan, we must go and prepare ourselves. You said it yourself – I am starting a war. I need my warriors, and my priestess to pray for our victory.” Stepping a little closer you slide both hands into hair as fine and delicate as silk. “As wondrous as your sister's breasts are – and I would know – they're not really suitable as an altar to pray from.”

Kiku-chan gives a soft half-sob bark of laughter, and you lean down, whispering into her ear very gently, letting your lips caress the sensitive skin. “Though I have been known to worship at them, I admit.” You ignore Kiki-hime's creeping blush as it colors the slopes of those soft mounds, and firmly slide your thumbs up Kiku-chan's scalp.

The Fire dragonette sighs, deeply, a faint tremor still evident in her slender frame. “Hai, baka-dragon.” She steps away from her sister, looking down; it's obvious she's incredibly ashamed of her reaction. Despite that, Akari and Yui are discussing something in half sign-language and half body-language that clearly isn't Kiku-chan, while Er Yin lays her hands on Kiki-hime's shoulders, earning her an over the shoulder smile and a hand placed over one set of those silver talons.

“That's better. Besides, we need you too much.” Kiku looks at you and then bows deeply. “All right. Let's get to it....” You open the door, and Kiku-chan steels herself, but there are no more surprises.
>>
>>34623230
The gymnasium is actually built into the basement; the sub-basement houses the water-works and power and plumbing. It is open to any resident, and entering the place causes everyone to do a double-take. That includes Er Yin-sensei, who looks confused. The reason is obvious to you of course; the echoes are not those of a regular room, because it isn't one.

About a third of the gym is taken up by exercise equipment – treadmills, free and hanging weights, and the like. The floor is tiled and the walls have television screens and headphone setups. The pool is huge, an Olympic sized pool, with steps leading into the shallows. About a third of the way down, the walls become natural rock caverns, and the tile gives way to smooth stone. There are a few mats for wrestling or gymnastics, but there are also climbing walls constructed naturally, stalactites and stalagmites. It these latter features that cause Er Yin's confusion, because the echoes are unnatural in the natural cavern part of the gym.

“It was like this when I moved in,” you explain calmly as you walk towards the natural caverns and the associated wrestling mats. “The landlady has some unusual ideas of what people enjoy. He's quite the interior decorator. But obviously it's almost perfect for us.” You stretch, and look at your family, their expressions ranging from wonder to determination.

When you reach the mats, you bow to them, and then step lightly onto them, walking to the middle. “I have an idea of your techniques....the one I'm really worried about if Kiki-hime, because she's not trained in close combat at all. But lets' makes sure of them entirely, before we start.”
>>
>>34623262
It turns out that Kiki-hime is an archer, of course, but you'd been told that before. Her ability with wood makes for staff, spear, and bow work well, but she only has experience with archery. Kiku-chan practices aikido, though hers is a great deal less formal and much more deadly than one would expect. Er Yin, it turns out, doesn't merely practice wushu, but specifically the grappling arts: snake, bear, mantis, certain aspects of tiger and dragon styles. She gave up with weapons, because it was simply too dangerous, though she can teach some. Akari, and yourself, of course, practice the Clan Ryo version of taihenjitsu and jujitsu. You know sword-work, but Akari specialized in no weapons. Yui, on the other hand, basically hits things really hard, as well as takes hits. Her techniques are essentially those of sumo, reflecting her nature as a servant of the kami.

The question quickly becomes, what to practice (choose no more than two):

[] Concentrate on bringing Yui and Kiki up to par in combat.
[] Concentrate on group tactics at current skill levels.
[] Concentrate on having Kiku and Er Yin defend Kiki-as-archer while you speak with Akari and Yui about Goto.
[] Test each of them yourself, except Akari, so you have an idea of their skill.
[] See what your fellow Clan Ryo warriors (Akari and Kiku) think might be best .

The first goal is relatively obvious – bringing Yui and Kiki-hime up to speed. It is also fairly obvious that it has to be you and Akari training Yui while Er Yin and Kiku-chan train Kiki-hime. While Kiku-chan has trained in Clan Ryo and thus knows how to train with oni-born, you're more worried about Yui holding back too much from fear of hurting her. A reasonable fear, if Kiku-chan wasn't so fast that the chances of Yui actually hitting her were so slim. On the other hand, Kiki-hime and Yui would make perfect foils for each other for later practice, because Kiki-hime would recover from any injury, and she wouldn't have to worry about actually hurting Yui.

As you arrange for the fights, you also suggest that Er Yin teach Kiki-hime how to create weapons for herself and transform her weapons as long as she got some basics down.

“All right, Yui-niji-chan....lets see how hard you can really hit,” you state, stepping in front of the tomboy. She looks at you dubiously, and you hold up your left hand, which she seems to be a little less concerned by. Akari smiles slightly as Yui steps up to you, and twists at the waist, before she unleashes a roundhouse slap that impacts your left hand hard enough to hurt, which isn't supposed to be possible; the shock jolts you right up to the shoulder. She moved your hand several inches as well.

“Was that the hardest?” She nods, looking a little belligerent at your doubting her. “Okay. Why open handed?”

“Because if I hit something with my fist, I can't transfer the energy properly. The density of my muscles works against me, aniki. When an oni slaps something the muscles in their hand tighten.” You have her demonstrate on Akari, who agrees – there's a distinct difference in her fist and her open hand strikes, and the open hand of an oni is a LOT harder. Akari is absently rubbing her breastbone, and you can tell this is definitely going to be some brutal training.

It quickly becomes apparent to you that hurting things is not really Yui-chan's problem at all. She's strong enough that she can hurt your left arm and Akari, so that isn't the issue. What she needs is to be able to do is defend herself against other people trying to hurt her. You you and Akari start working on her defenses, both against the people she's be fighting that will know how to hurt an oni-child and in general by teaching her how to read stances, and the basics of body language in a fight.

It is brutal work; Yui hits HARD, and while she may not be incredibly fast, she's a hell of a lot more perceptive and smarter than anyone in your old clan is going to be ready for. That, combined with your Clever and Dangerous Mind, lets you teach her in the best ways possible for her. And she takes to fighting like a dragon to water (well, except Fire dragonettes, freaky little things). Yui is surprisingly adept at changing her tactics to suit the situation, and she doesn't hesitate if she doesn't know how to cope, she simply does something different to buy time until she can figure out something that does work.

One thing she learns very quickly is to avoid your nails, even when they aren't claws; after three swipes, she makes sure she's ready to slap away a hand rather than deliver a blow that won't stop an opponent. Actual claws would be a threat, but she explains that the pain from shallow cuts is far worse than any real injury is. The oni-child – and for that matter oni – body can use their thick muscles to clamp down on broken bone or injured organs, and even stop bleeding, but their dense skin is packed with nerve endings and long, shallow cuts HURT.

Good to know, actually. We could put that to use against Goto.
>>
>>34624527
After almost two hours of that, you have Kiku and Er Yin work on some ideas for protecting Kiki-hime so she can use her bow, while you take a break and ask Yui and Akari about Goto's fighting techniques.

“Basically, Goto is a sadist, aniki,” Akari explains. “He wasn't trying to kill me at all. He did try to hurt me a lot.”

Yui grimaces. “Yeah, he used Akari-chan to knock down half the buildings he destroyed, not his club. It was like watching a game of golf played with cannon balls. But when he gets serious, he'll use his magic, not his club. He can move air around, and not just like wind, I mean, take it away from one place and put it in another.”

“That's how he knocked me unconscious, aniki. He took all the air from around me, and kept it away from me, until I just passed out.”

“Can he affect pressure in the same way?” you ask curiously.

Akari blinks. “No, I didn't feel anything weird about the air pressure. It didn't change when he stole the air.”

Yui shakes her head. “No, he has to use wind to do that, but he can make a LOT of wind. He can't do anything with water though, not directly. Just indirectly, like blowing it away or making a suction tunnel.”

You nod slowly. “What about his weapons?”

“He can use them all, but he only draws his sword when it's official business, like a duel. He's a great swordsman. He's not so good at weaponless combat, though. He never got into slap fights with my aunts and uncles, but no one ever wanted to fight him when he picked up a weapon.” That's potentially useful.

[X] “I think I'll just maim him a little....” Play with their horns!
[+] All the petting!

You lean over and reach for them, sliding your hand along their soft shoulders, up the sides of their necks – and the both tilt their heads away, their eyes closing catlike as you slip your fingers into their soft, short hair, mirrors of one another – up, to the back of their heads. “I think, in this particular instance, I am going to indulge myself.”

“....whacha mean, 'niki?” Yui asks, her voice soft and tremulous. The breakdown of her informality into outright laziness is sweet, so very different from how she started out. Akari just makes a soft, pleased noise.

“I think,” you murmur soothingly as your fingers caress their tiny cool bronze and chipped jade horns, “that I am going to maim him....maybe just a hand. Possibly an arm. He really shouldn't touch things that don't belong to him....” You gently press on the back of Akari's horn with your fingers, and then press with your thumb, sliding it up the length and making her whine prettily. “Or cause pretty tomboys to cry....” That is accompanied by slow, gently roll of your fingers over Yui's horn, and she responds by stiffness and sitting straight up, her breath catching.

They shudder as you slide your hand down the backs of their heads, scooting over just enough to deliver a slow, deep kiss to Yui, her eyes still closed, her tongue eagerly seeking yours without the slightest prompting on your part. You indulge your pretty oni-chick, and when you break the kiss, she is breathless, her breasts heaving under the tight wraps. Her hand is tightly held in Akari; you draw your best friend close, and give her a similar, deep, slow kiss. She sighs, relaxing into the kiss, making herself open to you, rather than demanding you give her a soul kiss.
>>
>>34625289
You draw back slowly, a little breathless yourself, and your heart is pounding. They're looking a little dazed and you pull them into a hug. “I love you both so dearly....and I am going to show everyone that what I love is not to be harmed, not even by the servants of a god.” Your whisper prompts them to hug you back, and you feel their warmth, their surety that you will do as you promised.

After another moment, you sigh and let them free. “All right, lets go join the others....not to much more to do now.”

Their soft responses of “Yes, aniki,” feel so right, so good.

Of course, standing up after sitting for those few minutes lets you know that Yui may not have the mad skills you and Akari do, but she can fucking HIT. And from the slight stiffness in ?Akari's movements, you're not the only one feeling it!

Er Yin is standing slightly to the right and behind Kiki-hime, as you approach, and Kiku-chan is standing some ten feet in front of her. Er Yin-sensei has a wicked little smile playing on her soft grey lips, and Kiku-chan is looking determined and sedate, the most dangerous look of any Clan Ryo dragon who isn't hiding her intent. Kiki-hime looks nervous, but she's holding a slender bamboo staff about ten feet long in a vaguely threatening manner.

[X] Yui can try her new skills to tag Kiki-hime!

You slow, which prompts Akari to slow, and Yui, despite her relative unfamiliarity with such matters, quickly picks up that something is going on and stops. “Always better to keep moving, because when you stop, you have to take a second to start moving again, Yui-niji-chan,” you explain and she quickly catches up to you and Akari.

“Now....Kiku-chan is fast, really fast. She's not going to try and injure you, she's going to keep you off your feet and unable to move towards Kiki-hime.” Yui looks up at you, her glowing eyes wide and bright, and then she grits her teeth and looks at the trio of opponents, studying them the way you taught her. “Er Yin might be blind, but her Void eyes will see everything, so you have to assume she can see you. She's heavily armored, but you can still hurt her. She's going to try and batter you into submission or trap you in her grip, and if she does get a hold of you, you're in trouble.”

You pause and kneel, making sighs to Kiku-chan, who translates for Kiki-hime and Er Yin, letting them know the 'rules' you are giving Yui. “Kiki-hime is going to use her pole to defend herself and to try and touch you. If she touches your body, you're out. If you hit her pole with your arms and legs, that counts as a block for you. If she hits and arm or leg that you aren't blocking with, then you have to not use that part of your body.” Yui nods, her heart racing.

“All you have to do....is touch Kiki-hime's base of her tail, her horn, or her breast.” Akari smiles, and Yui stares at you.
>>
>>34625834
“Aniki! But, but, but, but she's your WIFE!” Yui sounds appalled, and her cheeks are totally the color of red jasper. Akari shakes her head, her smile wide.

You leans close and whisper in Yui's ear, just so she and Akari can hear. “If you manage it....”

No, merely an old and jaded RPG player that is wary of such open promises, due to their nasty habit of coming around to bite you in the ass when you least expect it.

Hence I ask, unironically and completely serously, what if:
- she asks for something we cannot deliver?
- she asks for something we need Horobi's power to deliver, hence precipitating the catastrophe we're trying to prevent/attenuate?
>>
>>34626367

That would be a moral problem, because should we refuse to become Horobi, Amateratsu will unleash her brother upon Japan. And Susano-Oh will be much more destructive.
>>
>>34626367
If she ask us something that, for some reason, we cannot deliver, we simply tell her : "I'm trully sorry. It's impossible for me to grant you this", and then we ask for her forgiveness.

It's not a magical contract, it's a favor granted by a lover to another

But seriously, Yui is a smart girl with the heart at the right place.

Believe in her believing in Ryukuza, anons
>>
[X] ….I'll grant you a wish!

“....I will grant you one wish, whatever it may be, as best I can.” Yui's eyes widen and as you pull back you catch how they flick to Akari, who is settling down to sit and watch her lover take on two experts and a novice warrior all by herself.

“....it's a promise, aniki?” Yui asks in a small voice, her eyes looking into yours. She once told you that she was not supposed to ask for such things from her betters, so it must have cost her dear. Or she really, really wants that wish.

You offer her your pinkie, and she stares at it, licking her lips slowly. Hesitantly, she reaches up, and locks her pinkie with yours. You lean forward quickly and kiss her on the lips, sealing the silent promise to her shock. Letting go, you let your hand slide down her back as she turns, her face a mask of determination. Behind her back, you let Kiku-chan know that she needs to give Yui a fair chance in sign, and she nods ever so slightly.

Sitting next to Akari, you watch as Yui runs towards Kiku-chan directly, the delicate dragonette watching with that determined gaze as her enemy approaches. Akari leans back on both hands, her legs crossed. “Do you think she has a chance?”

“I'd say a fair one. Kiku-chan won't go overboard, and Yui has a lot of incentive.” When Kiku moves up to meet Yui, the movement is a white and red blur that slides across the mats like a snake, startling Yui into a sudden stop. “It's good for them to know what they're up against.” Yui barely has time to react as Kiku-chan steps between her legs and kicks one leg out from under her while pushing her over, the sudden stop leaving the oni-chick off balance.
>>
>>34626579
Kiki-hime steps forward, and Er Yin follows suit, wary and cautious. Yui lashes out at Kiku-chan, but she's already a dozen feet away. “I think she'll cheat, aniki,” Akari mentions mildly.

“I hope so; I didn't make the rules that strict. Er Yin and Kiku-chan are experts....” Yui tries to perform a kip-up, but Kiku-chan is there again, and the comical look on Yui's face as the slight dragonette upends her is priceless, right before she slams face first into the mat. “....but Yui-chan really wants that wish.” Already a dozen feet away, Kiku-chan looks bored as Yui gets to her hands and knees, shaking her head. The oni's glowing eyes takes one glance at the approaching Kiki, and her expression becomes tight and determined. Her hands clench into fists....

“Here it comes,” you tell Akari.

As she starts to rise Kiku-chan moves in like lightning....which is when Yui tears up a huge section the mat, tumbling Kiki-hime and forcing Er Yin to backpedal. This time it's Kiku-chan whose expression is shocked as she is flying thirty feet towards the pool after Yui swats her with the mat.

You're up before Akari can do more than start to rise, catching the delicate miko before she can land in the water.

Kiku-chan is looking a little mussed, and her expression is a little shocked, but she is physically just fine, the mat only having that much force through leverage rather than through Yui's strength. “Gomennasai, precious Kiku, I neglected to make sure she knew you couldn't swim.” Kiku blinks several times and you pull her into a princess carry, her hands coming up to her chest as she tries to gather her wits.

“I didn't think those could be torn, aniki,” she admits readily enough as you walk back to join a relieved Yui. “How strong is she?”

With a smile, you sit down, pulling her into your lap. “Strong enough to leave bruises on Akari-niji-chan.” She swears softly, and starts to get up but you dfrag her back into your lap, enjoyign the explosion as her hair bursts into life.

“Ecchi-dragon, let me....!”

“Nope, you got defeated, it's snuggles for you.” You bury your face in her neck, and she squeals softly and struggles.

“If it's Ryukusa-aniki, it can't be helped, you know,” Akari points out unnecessarily.

Kiku-chan struggles, fights, squirms, swears at you, and whines, but finally she relents and settles into your lap, her cheeks flushed and despite all her protests not entirely unhappy about it, from the scent of her. “That's better,” you murmur softly as you hug her against your body. She sighs, a long-suffering, tragic sigh from the depths of Yomi. “I really am sorry, bitsy-dragon, I should have told her.”
>>
>>34627372
Being Lancers.
>>
>>34626987

Kiku-chan can't swim - no Fire dragonette can. She'd start drowning immediately, or have to destroy the pool to save her life.
>>
>>34627428
I don't suppose there is some way around that? Seems like a liability.
>>
>>34627392
Your priestess shakes her head slightly, and leans back into you, relaxing as Yui and Er Yin struggle together, the smaller oni-child making up for her lack of reach and poor skills by knocking Er Yin's limbs far aside with ease, while keeping Er Yin between herself and Kiki-hime to avoid the 'spear' she carries. “It's my problem, I'll let her know later.”

“Gently, please, Kiku-chan. She wouldn't try to hurt you for anything.” Akari's request is soft and polite, not overprotective or threatening. Kiku-chan's immediate agreement makes you smile, and kiss the top of her head fondly. “Thank you,” Akari says, her voice even more relaxed.

You're very lucky, you admit to yourself, as Yui grabs Er Yin's tail in both hands and leaps past her, only to spin her around quickly at least half a dozen times and then gently land her on the mat. Er Yin is definitely dizzy as all heaven, unable to do more than remain on her hands and knees. Kiku-chan, despite the seeming abuse of her lover, remains relaxed and calm in your arms.

“That would suck,” she comments mildly, and you nod. Er Yin rolls over onto her back, smiling, though her eyes are twitching from the blood rush and dizziness.

Akari glances at Kiku-chan. “How did you know she'd be okay, Kiku-san?”

“Because she can fly.”

You and Akari blink and look at one another then at Er Yin. “But she can't see....oh,” you murmur, immediately realizing that her capability still exists, but she would be unable to navigate at all. Still, it is something useful to remember.

“I'll get her,” says Akari, as Yui and Kiki-hime battle desperately, Kiki-hime's speed and quickness made up for by Yui's determination to not be struck 'out.' You smile, watching your best friend walk cautiously past the battle to the downed Void dragonette.

You take the opportunity, and Kiku-chan's state of relaxation, to ask her about something that is troubling you. “Kiku-chan,” you whisper into her ear, your hand sliding along the base of her horn and making her warble softly.

….okay, that was something you did not know Fire dragonettes did. Warble. Bizarre.

Shaking your head, you inquire gently, “Is Er Yin happy to stay with us, bitsy-dragon? I mean....is she content and comfortable?” It is difficult to tell if her duty is what makes her stay, or if she is happy. She's possibly as good at keeping her secrets as you can be,

“Baka-dragon. Yes. We're both very happy. She talks about how she is looking forward to dancing with you, and how she can't wait to stand on Fuji again.” Her soft, almost sleepy voice is reassuring, and warm. Though, that answers a question you might have asked.

“No regrets then?” you ask her as Kiki-hime and Yui face off, both breathing hard and looking utterly determined. Yui steps in and then suddenly leaps, drawing her arms and legs in as she does so, taking the hard hit to her left arm that would have snapped a normal staff in two, before she lands directly in front of Kiki-hime.

“No, Ryukusa-tan. Not even one.” You kiss your priestess on the top of her head again, as Yui shoots both hands forward at the stumbling pink haired dragonette, who squeals as Yui gropes her twice over.

Akari is smiling as Er Yin cocks her head towards the noise. “I take it Yui-san won her battle, then.”

“Twice,” you agree, standing up and keeping Kiku-chan close as she starts to struggle again. You lean forward and kiss Er yin, who pauses, and accepts the kiss – and the squirming bundle of not-really-angry dragonette you pass off to her.

“I AM NOT A PUPPY!” she yells, quite loudly, sparking laughter from Yui and Kiki-hime in the distance. Kiku-chan's hair is fluttering madly and her eyes are molten.

“Do you want to be?” asks Er Yin mildly and Kiku-chan immediately goes limp in her arms, looking like an angry Persian cat again. An observation you wisely keep to yourself.

“Ryukusa-aniki owes her a wish, now,” Akari mentions softly, her smile gentle, almost proud.

“Oh, is that so? Well, if there is anything I may do to make such a thing happen, Ryukusa-sama, please ask.” Er Yin smiles and you caress her shoulder fondly.

Kiku-chan glances at her mistress, and then chimes in her support as well. “I as well. She deserves it.”

Akari's eyes are shining, and she looks towards her lover and your wife, who are walking unsteadily towards the group.

“Ryukusa.” You look at Er Yin-sensei, confused by her soft, flat tone of voice. She lets Kiku-chan slip from her grasp to stand on her own. Er Yin almost looks sick and you step towards her. “You must not lose. You must not even let there be the slightest doubt.” Kiku-chan glances at Yui and Kiki, and lays her hand on her unusually pale lover's hip. Er Yin's talons shoot out and grab you by the wrist and she pulls you close. “Do not let them have her again.”

You know that look. “Or....?” you ask softly, covering her hand with yours.

Er Yin's breath catches, and she shakes her head. You squeeze her hand gently, and she whispers, almost inaudibly. “She will not live out that night.”

Others would say their heart grew cold, or their rage burned hot. You?

There aren't enough natural disasters in the world to describe how those words make you feel, and there are no words in any language for how you would deal with the doomed fools who would dare harm your Yui.

Thanks for running XS
Are you feeling better than yesterday, at least?
>>
>>34628498
We roll dice in the fights we've had. In particular that one with the fuckoff kill everything sword.
>>
>>34628447
Sad Box for everyone!
For Goto, the saddest of boxes.

Thank you for your patience today. I hope that it was enjoyable, and educative, and entertaining.

All of the dragonettes have such a weakness. they're some of the strongest spirit-children, but their ties to the elements are so deep there is a flaw in each type. Akari made Ryukusa utterly helpless with four ribbons and four pebbles; Kiki-hime is vulnerable even to the slightest magic, even that of a true believer who has no real magic; Er Yin's most powerful spell can be brought down with a candleflame and a slight burn is agony beyond belief for her; a living vine would render Akari unable to break it or escape even though she can hurl buildings, and if it was wrapped around her throat she would die despite her near invulnerable flesh.

They're commonly known among dragonettes; Yui didn't know any better and thought she was saving Kiku-chan from a bad tumble against the rocks.

One or two questions answers if there are any.

>>34628527
Taking the fifth on that one.

Will the ride end for Kiku?

>>34628751
If we drop her in the pool...

Thank you for this thread!

>>34628738
Your heart can't handle it, I'm afraid.

She wants to be officially married to Akari. As in Akari wearing a wedding dress, vows, a ring, the works. That's her wish.
>>
>>34628751
That would imply she doesn't secretly enjoy it.

She might even hesitate to get the curse lifted because she can be 'manhandled' so much more easily as she is.

Kiku never wears latex. She gets tired of it melting whenever she gets too excited.

Her first experience with nylon rope was horrible for everyone involved.
>>
>>34628989
Personally, I only want the curse lifted if Kiku doesnt change afterward.
>Always a loli
>Nekomata didn't actually curse her.
>>
>>34629050
This about sums up my reaction as well.
>>
>>34629060
Make sense. So, fireproof leather!
>>
Good night all. I am glad you did enjoy.
>>
>>34628989
Just because her body would change, doesn't mean her personally would. Or that she couldn't actively swap in between
>>
>>34629413
Night night!

Night XS, thanks for running. ETA on the next thread?
