Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

Oh? And what sort of person would that be?

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

I don't... know.

[ quiet for a moment again, her embarrassment taking on a more despairing edge, ears flat and tail curling in against her thigh. ]

I'd just like to be useful to someone.

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ looks back up to them, not quite meeting their eyes. ]

If-- it was someone like you, maybe you could... maybe I wouldn't hurt you, again.

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

[ they just sort of freeze, staring ahead blankly. ]

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ ...

She reaches over to gently touch her arm. ]

Silfda?

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

[ they blink a few times, and then look at her. ]

Nobody should be collared because they might hurt somebody else.

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ mmm. she doesn't agree-- for herself, anyway-- but she won't speak it; as it is, silfda clearly has a problem with it beyond just disliking it.

her ears remain flat, but after a moment she uncertainly slides her hand down to curl around one of theirs. ]

... I'm sorry.

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

Are you going to find someone else to do it?

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ looks kind of. Hurt? By the question, a tiny whine in her throat.]

N-no. I don't-- need to use them for bingo, I think.

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

[ they reach up to cup her face and turn it to face them. ]

Do you really want me to do it?

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ freezes-- and finally looks them in the eye, brow furrowed. ]

I don't want anything that would hurt you.

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

It won't hurt me.

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

You're a horrible liar.

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

Mm. That's why I don't lie.

[ they take her hand and just start headed for the elevator. ]

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

Silfda.

[ lets herself be led, though, ears and tail still low. ]

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

Cypress.

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

Where are we going?

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

I have something to pick up from my room.

[ entering elevator and going up. ]

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

It better not be a collar.

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

It is a collar!

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ ...

There's a tensing in her grip. But she doesn't respond, nor does she try to stop. ]

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

[ they turn to ooze on her a a bit, leaning up to give her a quick kiss. ]

Cypress, I want to. Because it's with you.

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ she flushes, but the frown remains, even if her jaw loosens a little. ]

... I think you're doing what you think I want.

Re: sashay

[beautifulend]

Mm, that's right. I'm doing what I want - isn't that what you wanted?

Re: sashay

[vitainmorte]

[ looks mildly uncomfortable, but just sighs as the elevator for bad ends floor ding. ]

... right.
