[So, it's still early enough to get a full day's work done, and there's much to do around the HQ.

As people know by now, Level 4 has mostly been cleared of active nature, though farther from the apartments near the stairs there are still the remains of vines and moss and dirt on the buildings and floors. Fallen trees and tangled roots still clog up the area around the buildings which must have once been shops.

Aside from the library claimed by Henrietta and perhaps few other establishments, they are doorless, and inside those abandoned buildings there is still evidence of old equipment and rotted furniture waiting to be re-purposed, broken down for offerings, or thrown out if it's beyond use.

There's not much fresh plantlife left here to collect for offerings, but plenty of cleaning to be done, perhaps in Eizon's name, in exchange for the electricity flowing through whatever fixtures people have acquired by now, or as an offering of kindness in exchange for water...

Up on the fifth level, nature stubbornly continues to prowl.]

[ Handwaves, vaguely. ]

I need more variety. I would even go for vanilla if it was with the right sort of person.

[A pause.

Blankly, and with a despairing lack of cheek:] Vanilla?

[ ...b-baby

squeezes her hand a little, smiling. ]

Nothing "special", so to speak. Just plain old sex. Possibly even with feelings involved, if you're into that.

[SHE IS A CHILD SOLDIER WITH AN OVERPROTECTIVE BROTHER WHO WIELDS GIANT DRILLS what is sexual terminology.

Also, she seems rather off-put by how Kaori words that last part.]

"With feelings involved" is how it should always be.

[ ...are you pinching my cheek... ]

It is not necessary. I rarely feel for the people I have sex with. Not like that, anyway.

I have never fallen in love, and I do not plan to.

[Gently? \:D/]

I know it isn't necessary, but I think something like that would be empty of any happiness if no strong feelings were involved.

I find joy in my own pleasure, and other peoples'.

[ bweeehhh cheekpulling :T pulls hers in return!! ]

[No one has ever pulled her cheek back usually she just tops everyone no questions asked how does she react to this????

Slowly... lets go...]

I don't understand how—

[The abrupt realization that she is arguing about sex with someone.]

...

[ ...keeps pulling gently :Da ]

No, do go on. I'm curious.

[Swats at her hand.]

No.

...Ah, I've made her mad? Oh noooo~

I'm not mad. [Sure is embarrassed, tho.] It's just not my place to tell someone how to be intimate.

[Can't quite say that without hesitating on the last word.]

[ ...cheek pinch ]

You can say whatever you wish to me, dearest. Such a thing won't offend me. It is likely a product of how you were raised, or your environment, or society-- as my last story may have told you, I had no such things to influence me.

[Swats!!]

England. I'm from England. We're going to reach the twentieth century soon. The Order will defeat the Earl before he can destroy everything, and the world will enter a new era.

Ohh, Victorian Era, and you've never read one of those saucy novels?

Though I suppose they may not exist in your world in the way I know them. Such a shame...

The Order is very particular about the books they keep in the libraries.

Goodness. I can't let you grow up without reading a horribly trashy romance-slash-porn novel at some point.

I'll fix this shortly. Within the next few days, maybe.

[She knows that word!!]

I don't think that's necessary.

Too late, mind's already made up!

Kaori... I don't want to read a book like that.

It's practically a rite of passage nowadays.

They're so horrible they're good. Come oonnn. I mean, I could always show you, instead...

[Stare.

Stare.

Stare.

(Blush.)]

[Turns and begins to walk the opposite direction.]

[ ... follows :')a ]

Now, now. Don't tell me you're embarrassed...
