[It had been... An interesting couple of days. At least, Rin thinks it has. Maybe not, though.

All of a sudden, a few days ago, something had just gone missing. It was hard to explain.

Like, Rin could remember her feedings these last couple of months. She could remember them being difficult struggles, full of tears and regret and grief. She just... can't remember why for the life of her, something so basic would be such an issue for her. She'd been draining energy from humans since she was a baby, why would it be an issue lately?

Other things were gone. Not memories - her memories were solid. She vividly remembered growing up in Ryslig, and dealing with all the issues that might come with being a goblin her size with her particular disability. No, what's missing is... explanations, she guesses. Reasons for why things are the way they are.

For example, she doesn't know how she met Emi. She knows that the two of them are close, of course. Borderline intimate, really, with the levels of comfort they have with physical contact and even with each others' naked forms. Rin's just not sure why they're this close, or how they got to this point.

Which is has led to their current situation. The both of them awoke as the sun started setting and, as is the case every evening, Rin starts her night off with a hot shower. And then, after drying off and putting her pants on fine on her own, she returns to the living room, completely topless - showing off to the entire room that her ears aren't the only parts of her body that have gotten rings as of late.]

Emi, I'm ready.

[She still has trouble with shirts, after all, and Emi usually helps her with her bra as well.

It's odd, though. And even as she watches Emi approach - her nightly changes still fresh; her fur, the softest it will be all night - she can't help but stare and wonder how they got to be so close.]

[sleeveknots]

I don't think it's that. I like your big bear face just fine, and you wouldn't eat me.

[She looks back up at Emi, into her best friend's bright yellow eyes. For some reason she had thought that, just maybe, Emi didn't like girls that way, and that was why they weren't dating. But Emi's answer has pretty much blown away that possibility.

There's a brief look of hesitation in Rin's eyes, as she looks up at her friend's face. She can feel the bear's warm breath on her, smell the fruit she's just eaten. It's an intimidating sight for many humans, of course, but to Rin it's a comforting one. This is her friend, her protector... Maybe something else too.

She's afraid, though. Change is a scary thing, especially to Rin. The scariest thing in the world, really - she can't imagine what she'd do if her life were different in any significant way to the way it is now. Her world isn't without it's issues, of course, but she loves being a goblin and being an artist - all her needs are met. She can paint as much as she likes, she lives in a city full of humans she can feed off of, and she only ever really needs to sell paintings when she wants to buy something - a new tie or a ring or some new art supplies.

Likewise, her relationship with Emi is fantastic the way it is. Emi is, without a doubt, the most important person in the world to her, and they're both happy living together like this. Does she really want to change that?

Or perhaps the question should be: Would anything really change at all?

They've already crossed so many boundaries, after all. Personal space means nothing to them, privacy between them is a mostly unneeded luxury. What would change, really, if they were to become linked romantically as well? It isn't as if they weren't already firmly bonded with each other every other way but physically.

Maybe it wouldn't be so bad? Of course, it matters what Emi thinks of this situation.]

...do you want to try it?

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

Well no, I wouldn't, but...

[ Emi's brows push together as she looks down in Rin's eyes. This is sudden, but Emi can't remember anything that would give them a reason to date, or not to date, and they're already so close. It feels like they could even break up without really ruining everything. Why would they though? Their day to day life isn't going to change if they get a little more intimate. Rin already curls up against Emi, as close as they can get, sleeping against her furry bulk, so what's kissing? Or going further than that?

They're close enough to married anyways, maybe someone on this peninsula is up to officiating a lesbian monster wedding. Ha.

Emi lets out a rumble like a purr, and leans in closer to Rin even before she asks to try it. ]

Yeah. Yeah, I think I'd like to... ha, figure out how our faces fit together... Rin.

[ And saying that, she leans in, sort of just nuzzling Rin's face at first. ]

[sleeveknots]

[ It starts with Rin returning the nuzzle. Not a kiss, exactly, but a sign of affection nonetheless. It's nice to feel the warmth of Emi's face, and the softness of her fur pressed up against her own face. It's a comforting, loving sensation that she allows to linger for a moment, before pulling away - just long enough to glance upward at Emi's eyes once more, and then plant a kiss on the end of the werebear's mouth.

It's weird.

Not kissing an inhuman face, whose lips weren't designed to lock with her own. That part actually feels pretty natural - Rin is a monster, after all. It makes sense that, if she were to date someone, they'd be a monster too, and not all monsters have such human-like faces. It's never been a thought that has particularly bothered her.

No, the weird part is in the person she's kissing. She and Emi have had this inexplicable platonic intimacy for so long... it feels so different, and a little scary, to change things in this way.

It's not a bad sort of weird, though. Quite the opposite, really - Rin rather enjoys the kiss. Not just the feeling of her lips pressing against her closest companion's furry - covered face (although that part is also nice), but also the feeling of her fluttering, the butterflies in her stomach giving way to a warm feeling of happiness. The sorts of feelings that tend to come with a first kiss - especially when that first kiss is with someone you feel like you should have kissed a long time ago.

Most of the anxieties Rin had had about this situation melted away at this kiss. There's still the matter of whether or not Emi likes it as much as she does, of course, but that's something she'll find out soon enough. Especially because Rin doesn't feel particularly inclined to be the one to break this kiss - at least, not just yet.]

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

[ Kissing is something of a human thing, but while they are monsters, their actual lives are somewhere between human and animal. Emi would feel just as happy licking Rin. Her face, her... well, she's small and Emi's got a big tongue.

Kissing, though, is still nice, tender and hesitant as they are. Emi's not sure who and where but she knows she's kissed plenty of people... and this is different, bigger, taking a relationship that was very comfortable and testing the waters, to see if it can stay just as comfortable, or even feel better, if they take it so many steps further.

Deepening a kiss with the way their faces are is a little awkward, but Emi tilts her snout against Rin's mouth, fur brushing against the little goblin's skin. A paw reaches out, not so much resting on Rin's shoulder as engulfing it. That is to say, she likes it, and wants more, those yellow eyes sliding shut.

Now that it's obvious Rin's comfortable with this, Emi's starting to think that maybe they should've been doing this for a while now, and there's a pleasant warmth deep down inside. ]

[sleeveknots]

[They really should have.

The kiss, especially after Emi leans into it, is an odd one. But Rin wouldn't have it any other way, to be honest. Sure, Emi's human form is cute and all, and perhaps a bit better suited to making out than this one, but as far as Rin is concerned, this is the real Emi.

They're both nocturnal creatures, after all, so for as long as Rin has known Emi, this is the form she remembers spending the most time with. This is the fierce protector that's stood up for Rin when she's needed it and the warm, soft friend when she needed someone to cuddle with. Which isn't to say that she doesn't enjoy Emi's human disguise (and that's really what it is, isn't it? A disguise, hiding the real, monstrous, beautiful version of Emi from a world that might fear her). It's a lot closer to her own size, for example, and her hands are more dextrous like that, which can be helpful in a lot of ways.

Still, Rin's glad that this is the form she got to kiss first.

As for licking.... Well, Rin wouldn't object to the affection, really. But as far as monsters go, goblins are more similar to humans than they are to any sort of animal. Kissing just comes more naturally to her when it comes to her romantic partners.

Rin is the first one to break the kiss - although Emi's massive arm could certainly keep her pulled in if she really wanted to. It's not out of any sort of unhappiness or dissatisfaction, she just needs to breath. I wouldn't do to be smothered to death from their first kiss, aft er all.]

...that was nice.

[ She says, smiling and blushing. Why hadn't they done this before? She's genuinely curious now, what could have prevented them from taking their relationship in such a nice direction?

It doesn't matter, she supposes. They've both come to their senses now. ]

Um, okay. Now I've got another question for you.

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

[ There are some advantages to her human form, mostly in helping Rin with things that require hands - dealing with jewelry with bear paws has taken practice, over the years they've known each other - but even if Emi liked her human form more, this is more natural. More her. Sleep during the day, unless she needs to feign humanity. While she doesn't like being pitied, her legs seem to make people less suspicious of her.

Otherwise, being a bear is great. She's gotta be one of the best cuddlers around, all big and furry, and Emi has a feeling that she's going to be getting even more of that now. Suits her just fine.

Emi holds onto Rin, her massive paws gentle and soft, as they finally part, panting for breath. While her blush isn't visible she feels pretty warm. ]

Y-yeah it was. ...so, uh, ask away? [ Emi tilts her head, wondering if this is going to be a very Rin-esque question. ]

[sleeveknots]

Have you ever been with a girl before?

[...no, not a very Rin-esque question at all. A pertinent one, though!

Emi is definitely the more sexually experienced of the two, of that there is no doubt. The details are a bit hazy, but Rin remembers Emi dating A LOT (and having a fair amount of sex - something Rin tends to notice when the bear she spends most nights snuggled up against is otherwise occupied). But, as far as Rin can remember, she's only ever walked in on Emi with boys.

And, while Rin isn't the most experienced person in the room, she is familiar with the more womanly sort of love.]

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

[ Very topical, and not one Emi really expected despite how obvious the question should be. It leaves her taken aback for a moment, blinking, and then thoughtful. For all the dating and sex, she's never really considered either of those with a girl - plenty of boys around for one thing - and she didn't really notice girls that way as early in her life either.

But she's noticing Rin, and finally, she shakes her head. ]

No, not at all.

[ Although she's kissed one, now, one who she knows has a little more experience on that end. ]

Got one up on me here, huh?

[sleeveknots]

I guess so...

[There's a smile and a blush, at first, but as Rin's voice trails off they sort of fade away. Not in a bad way, of course! Just in the Rin way, as she tends to do when she's distracted by something interesting.

In this case, that thing is the entirety of Emi's body.]

I think... I think I'm gonna change that, though... Tonight, if that's okay.

[She doesn't really wait for an answer, though. Instead, she plants another kiss on Emi's lips - a smaller one this time, before breaking the kiss and planting another one on her cheek. If this were too fast, or if Emi decided she didn't want this, she had no doubt that the werebear would let her know.

In the past, Rin wouldn't be so forward. In fact, if they had both been inexperienced in girl love, Rin probably would have let Emi take the lead. That's much more Emi's style than her own, after all.

But her experiences with Mahiru had been... enlightening? That's probably not the right word. Her first time with the harpy had been awkward, the two figuring out each others' bodies for the first time together. But in subsequent attempts, well... as easily flustered as Mahiru gets, sometimes Rin had to take the lead.

Don't misunderstand, the two of them had hardly been sex fiends, but at the same time, they had been together for several months. It was only natural that they'd do the deed quite a few times in that period.

Cut forward to today, and Rin is a lot more confident taking the lead than she might otherwise have been. Confident enough, at least, to propose the initial kiss. And now confident enough to go in for a second, and a third - leaving a string of kisses from the lips of Emi's muzzle down to her cheek and then to her neck.

They're probably a very odd sight, right now. Emi the 7 foot tall bear, sitting cross-legged, while her improbably tiny girlfriend (if that's what they are now? It feels right, but Rin is notoriously bad with naming things) has to stand up in order to kiss her neck. Mountain, she's glad that Emi doesn't wear clothing in this form when she can help it. It's so convenient when she doesn't have anything to undo or unstrap on her way down, as she delivers a few more kisses onto the soft fur of Emi's neck.]

You're going to- [She cuts herself off as she delivers another kiss.] - have to - [Another kiss, slightly lower this time.] take my bra back off, you know.

[She punctuates the sentence with another kiss, having it made it all the way down to Emi's collarbone by now.]

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

[ While Rin obviously doesn't have a whole ton of sex, Emi's well aware that she's been with Mahiru a few times. Relying on Rin to lead the way feels, perhaps, a little strange, but she trusts Rin and maybe loves her, so why not? There's no reason not to, right? ]

Sounds like fun.

[ At first, Emi returns the kiss, leaning in a little just as Rin pulls away to kiss along her snout. Emi tilts her head a little, as Rin moves along to her cheek, and reaches out with another heavy paw, wrapping her friend up and pulling her close. Girlfriends or very close friends with benefits or married-in-all-but-name, Emi's feeling really good about this, and she drops one of those paws to cover Rin's rear, squeezing lightly.

Most of the adjusting is on Emi, as big as she is, and with Rin lacking arms, tilting and leaning to give Rin access to kissing wherever she wants without straining herself. On top of that, she does have to be a little careful, although she's well accustomed from all the cuddling.

Wordless, she uses one paw to start undoing what she'd just done a few minutes ago, unclasping and tugging away at Rin's bra, looking down at her body. ]

I'm really... happy right now...

[sleeveknots]

[By the time Emi has her bra off and expresses how good she feels about the situation, Rin has already moved further downward, delivering kisses down along Emi's clavicle.

Even when she isn't actually kissing, she keeps her small green body flush with the werebear's - both out of her own preference and because Emi apparently wants to keep hr close too. She's so close that she, as she can feel the warmth of her own breath with face as it hits Emi's soft fur and dissipates.

It's a new kind of closeness for them. More intimate than they've ever been before. And so, even if this isn't the first time she's had her head up against the softness of Emi's body...the feeling of that warm breath takes on an entirely different meaning to her.

And the feel of Emi's paw squeezing her butt is a new feeling too. It communicates without words that Emi reciprocates her enjoyment and her enthusiasm. It isn't like being held - or at least, not the way she's used to Emi holding her - but there's something to be said about being grabbed so firmly and gently by arms that could easily swallow her up. It's a really, really good feeling.]

Mm.

[She doesn't give a proper answer to Emi saying that she's happy, but the feeling is certainly mutual. It's just that, by this time, Rin has moved down to the breast. The left one, specifically, and Rin's keen goblin ears can pick up on her heartbeat beneath it.

It isn't the most prodigious breast in the world, of course, but as far as Rin is concerned it's absolutely perfect. After delivering a few kisses to the top of the girl's chest, she puts her mouth on the bare (and also bear) nipple. This time, it isn't so much of a kiss as a gentle suckle, with Rin flicking the tip of Emi's teat with her tongue. She's always been very good with her mouth, and thanks to a little bit of trial-and-error with Mahiru, this is no exception.]

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

[ It doesn't seem like anything's stopping Rin's steady march downward, and she lets out a low rumble, a deep sort of purr, against the goblin held against her body, vibrating through both of them. It's nice that this is coming to them so easily, although she hopes she isn't overheating Rin with her size and her warm, soft fur. At least Rin doesn't mind the fur, kissing down along her body, as Emi squeezes her butt, and the other one rests on her back, now, supporting her, Emi happy to hold as much of Rin's weight as she can.

Eventually, Rin moves down to her chest, Emi's huge, powerful heart pounding hard and fast. Her nipples are a bit stiff already, and a gasp fades into a rumble as she suckles on one of her breasts, leaning her head back a little.

Soon, she's trying to tug Rin's pants down with the paw on her rear, instead. ]

[sleeveknots]

[Rin definitely doesn't mind the fur, and she definitely likes that noise Emi is making. It's cute, but it's loud enough to be noticeable and it serves as another reassurance that she's doing something right. This isn't the first time that she's heard Emi's purr, of course, nor is this the first time she's felt it vibrating throughout her entire being.

It is time she's caused it in such a way, though. That brings a smile to her lips, even as she removes those lips from Emi's nipple.]

Lean back.

[She says, pushing the bear girl backwards a bit with her shoulder - not hard enough to actually force the larger monster back, of course. She isn't really capable of such a feat. But it gives a good indicator of what she wants, even as she wriggles her way out of her pants, leaving her in just a striped pair of panties.

It's almost funny to think about that just minutes ago, this had been a complete non-issue. Rin had been standing topless in front of a naked Emi and neither of them had bat an eye at that. Now... It's not bad, but it's definitely different. So many things are the same, but at the same time very, very different. As all this all happens, Rin's beginning to realize just what a big change this is to the dynamic of their relationship.

Surprisingly though - especially to Rin - she isn't afraid of this change. In fact, she's excited to see where this is going, and to keep going.

This was a good change to make, she thinks.]

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

[ For some reason, there was a time when Emi found her purrs sort of embarrassing - paying too much attention to human culture, or something. Screw 'em. She's adorable no matter her size, shape, or vocalizations, and they'd just have to accept that while she was eating them.

...maybe not. Rin likes it. Emi likes it. That matters more, and she listens to Rin, leaning back at the nudging as Rin works her way out of her pants. The striped panties she wears are always so cute on her, and Emi's hardly hesitant to hook a claw, very carefully, under the waistband, to start tugging it down.

Panties are a girl's soul, so clearly this is a meaningful moment.

Except it really is, because they're about to go from whatever they were before, to lovers, and Emi laughs a bit nervously. This has been their best idea in a long, long time. ]

Let's get you out of these, gorgeous.

[sleeveknots]

[Rin has a faint blush in her face throughout this entire experience, of course - her green skin not blushing pink, but rather a darker, deeper shade of green. What Emi has seen so far, though, is nothing to the deep green blush that comes to her cheeks when she feels a hooked claw start to drag her panties downward.

There's a brief moment where it seems that Rin doesn't know what to do, before she resumes wriggling her hips, allowing for their removal.

She pauses again, not long after she had started, when Emi calls her "gorgeous."

It's a word that she associates a lot more with more mature, beautiful women. Monsters like Lust, or Naomi or Natasha are gorgeous, and she doesn't doubt that they get called that all the time. But her? Rin, the awkward little goblin? Nobody, not even Mahiru (who had more than her fair share of sweet things to say, don't get her wrong) had ever called her gorgeous.

The blush has hit full-force now, her entire face is a few shades deeper than it had been a minute ago. The fact that Emi thinks of her that way - and Rin does believe that she does, Emi isn't the sort to lie about that stuff - makes her so happy that it takes her a minute to regain enough composure to go back to what she's doing. Now with a wide, almost toothy, grin stretched across her face.

A second more of wriggling and the panties are off, kicked Mountain-knows-where in their apartment. She presses her now-naked (sans jewelry) body even more closely against Emi's furry body. She's practically on top of the leaning werebear now, and she returns her mouths attention to Emi's nipple.

Meanwhile, her right leg rubs up against Emi's left. She lifts one foot up to stroke the fur on that leg, caressing the soft fur of her thigh. The balance required to do so while standing on one foot is effortless on her part, thanks to a lifetime of practice in combination with the fact that Emi is still technically sitting. Rin isn't content to remain standing for long, though.

She presses the entirety of her (admittedly insignificant) weight into Emi - a wordless way to tell then bear girl to get onto her back while Rin's mouth remains occupied with her lover's nipple.

This is it. No turning back now, they're taking this plunge together.]

[chariotsofcarbonfiber]

[ She wants Rin. There's no doubt about it, as this goes on, that it's just making Emi hungrier for more contact, more kissing, sucking, and licking, and more of the sight of Rin's body. Whatever anyone else thinks doesn't matter; Rin is gorgeous to her in ways that go beyond, but also include, her body. Emi wants everything she is, and having those panties off, the both of them bared to the other, feels so good and right.

They really needed to do this sooner. The blush on Rin's face - Emi can recognize a blushing goblin after all this time, can almost smell it - is captivatingly cute, and she holds Rin against herself as that mouth seeks her nipple again, letting out a rumble as Rin sucks a bit more.

She can tell what Rin's going for when she pushes against her, responding by slowly rolling onto her back, holding onto Rin to keep her at her chest. ]
