Kureno-chan stepped out because of the pheromones. He probably won't come back while I'm like this.
[ Which is its own mess. He's a full grown sending off dog, she knows, but she would've preferred to have been prepared for this, that he have a designated place to sit tight while they wait Cordis and its mess out. Not only that, but she's been able to sleep properly because Kureno is there and there's presence in their living space, something she missed more than she realized. What's she going to do during the remainder of Cordis? Climb into bed with Lightning??? Pin him on the couch and conveniently fall asleep on his lap while he pets her e -- ears?
Although Kureno isn't around to see that if it happens, which is good, she's not entirely sure how he'd handle seeing her like that, but that's -- ugh, that's besides the point. She hates these stupid ears so much, just the thought of Lightning's hands on 'em gets them twitching and it's embarrassing. She's so glad this is text. She doesn't want to begin explaining that to anyone. ]
I'm coming up to drop this food off whether you like it or not. Prepare yourself.
[ Prepare himself? Jeez, this wasn't supposed to be a fight. He knew he was being stupid. But he hated feeling like she was going out of her way for no reason. All because he was still a bit of a mess.
[ She recognizes defeat when she sees it. She hadn't intended this to be a fight, but she won't apologize. She hasn't said or done anything wrong.
Still, she sighs, not that he can see or hear it and give her apron strings a tug. She can't cook anymore. not like this. Those unpleasant emotions will seep into the food. She was on the very last batch, at least, so she doesn't think they did, but... she doesn't like that rejection, that push, shove. She knows he doesn't mean it, but in that split second, it's hard not to take it personally.
That's why she takes a moment to reply. ]
I'll be headed up in five. Try to cheer up, okay? This isn't a punishment, Yo-chan.
[ It doesn't take her long to pack up a Cordis sized portion for a growing teenager into a certain tote. Figuring out what to wear takes longer, but she settles on -- well, nothing special. She's not leaving the building, doesn't particularly want to be recognized by any of their neighbors, so she opts for that monstrous black hoodie she'd gotten as a quick see-me-through after the damned feline traits had manifested the first time and pulls the strings tight to conceal her ears, try to keep the scent to herself.
The thing practically swallows her up and conceals her form, so it should do. Tells Lightning she's stepping out for a moment to make a drop for a hungry friend a few doors down, and she's off at a speed befitting a person of her heritage. She's fast. Doesn't want to linger in the halls or draw attention if she can help it.
She does think to knock at least once before she opens Yosuke's door, at least, and slips inside quickly, quietly. ]
Yo-chan, I'm here!
[ She calls, turning the lock behind her soundly. She won't stay long. Doesn't think she can, not with how the pheromones affected her household, but maybe just a moment will be okay.
[ His pheromones aren't nearly as strong as hers, but they do give off the scent of autumn. As told by a friend he will meet not too long after this. Scents such as pumpkin pie, a crisp evening breeze by a river, or rain in a forest.
Yosuke himself is burrowed in his bed, the only thing peeking out is his large, bushy tail and oversized ears. It was a little cold in his apartment and he was warm. ]
Okay. You can just... leave it on the counter or something.
[ "Or something." She's about to say something about that when her eyes catch those oversized ears and that large, bushy tail and her fingers twitch. She'll be putting the food on the counter, alright, and quickly, quietly heading for his bedroom.
Is it the best idea? Probably not with how strong her pheromones are. She smells sweet in a way she herself hasn't yet placed, that she doesn't particularly want to, but just a moment should be fine. It isn't like she herself is lacking in restraint, after all. She can handle him, whatever happens, and it's with that knowledge that she'll be leaning to reach for those ears of his with a grabby pair of hands and a near sing-song little -- ]
His ears perk at that sing-song voice that sounds far too close and he stiffens because what is Setsu-nee doing-! ]
Gah!
[ Not even the sweet smell wafting from his big sister is enough to distract him from the hands on his ears. What the hell? ]
S-Setsu-nee, what're you doing?! I thought you were gonna be in 'n out?
[ He presses the blanket closer to his nose to muffle the pheromones that do nothing except make him want to cling to her and he curls up further. But then, even with the rustling, another sound could be heard.
Yosuke was purring. His blushed to his... well, he would blush to his ears if he still had his human ears. Instead, his face goes cherry red because he can feel the damn vibrations in his chest and ugh, how embarrassing! ]
And leave these big, beautiful ears of yours lonely?
[ Scritchscritchscritchscritchscritch! Her voice takes on that sing-song quality again. ]
Not a chance in any of the hells across the dimensions!
[ And she's not gonna give, not until the sound of that purring registers in her ears. Then, she drops her eyes to his face and that grin of hers tugs wider. She starts up in earnest again and mercilessly. ]
[ She's way stronger than him so tugging the blanket up does nothing to dislodge her hands. He wiggles about in the bed, blanket practically tangling around his legs and tail as he has to fight himself from leaning further into her hands and trying to get away.
He fails miserably. It's not a particularly sensitive spot like the base of his tail is so thankfully, there are no accidental boners to be had. No, it feels pleasurable in a different way and by the time he gives up completely, he's purring so loud it's a wonder no one else can hear him and his head is leaning heavily into her hands. ]
[ Really, really fake by her reckoning and she almost, almost settles into this. She could. Sit right here and curl up beside him and content herself just playing with his ears a bit, see how loud she could make him purr, how much, which way she could get him to lean, press against her hands. And that tail, she glances after it. ]
I should get going. [ She sighs. ] And you need to eat, too.
[ She'll retract her hands just a smidge with that. She wants to see if he'll lean, how far. ]
[ It's a grumble with no real heat behind it. And he hates that he does, indeed, follow her hands when she retracts her hands a little. ]
You should and I need to. Too bad you're stopping me from going anywhere.
[ Technically, he probably could just get up and go but... the purring intensifies as he wants more pets! God dammit! Why did he have to go back to Cordis? Dragon was so cool! ]
[ She puts the question forward despite that there's no real heat behind his words, something distinctly liquid about her tone. Her left ear twitches slightly beneath her hood, but that's about the only indication she might have some sort of legitimate thought about his statement. She presses her fingers just slightly forward with that and presses a gentle rub in turn before pressing that discipline of hers and drawing herself up, away. ]
Up, then, or I'm coming for that tail.
[ She's heading out of the room already, pausing in the doorway to make sure he gets up. Don't try her, Yosuke. ]
[ He's just turning into a five year old, don't mind him, Setsura. His tail practically curls around him when she threatens to go for it because that really would spell disaster for him. His ears are flat now, mostly in disappointment over no more pets and the purring has stopped.
Meanie. ]
F-Fine, fine, I'm up.
[ He untangles the sheets from around his legs and slides out of his bed, taking a moment to stretch and sigh. ]
You smell like candy or fruit or something. It's really sweet.
[ It's actually the reason that, aside from still kind of wanting to go in for a hug and having to work the willpower to refrain, he wasn't actually aroused by it. It was too sweet. ]
[ She'd been hoping that oversized hoodie would contain it at least a little for a little while for all that it's a large, form swallowing monster and long enough, almost, to conceal her shorts. No wonder Kureno jetted out the door. She'll have to be careful going back, but... hm. ]
Was it that strong when I came in or did it get stronger while I was petting you?
[ She passes through the door to his room on her way to the door, intent upon putting a little distance between him and allowing him out. She's not going to sit down. If the hoodie isn't doing its job, she'll leave the scent on things she contacts.
Damned Cordis. She'll need a shower as soon as she gets in. ]
No, my nose is kind of always sensitive to strong scents. I mean, I got used to it working the perfume aisle all the time at Junes but...
[ He followed her into the main room with a shrug and rubbed the back of his head. ]
No, it stayed the same and I only smelled it when you walked into my room. You're not gonna get my horny or whatever if that's what you're worried about it.
[ Just saying that made him blush a little, but it was true. He had no urge to actually do anything to her or anything. Except hug her and he stopped himself by going to the bags of food she brought. ]
[ It's a small relief, but it's just that. Small. The ears, the tail were two -- one? They seem to have a mind of their own -- horrible thing. Those teeny, tiny fangs just barely peeking over her bottom lip are another. The pheromones? That's another level of frank fuckery that she's not sure how not navigate and it's messing with her mood. Is there a trigger? An off button? Yosuke's aren't hands she would break, at least, but that statement hits her stomach and makes it twist. ]
I don't trust the moons and you shouldn't either. Gods are fickle.
[ Heβs changed moons twice now. The last thing heβs gonna do is trust the moons and the gods. Especially after Izanami.
He goes for the rice first, pulling out a pair of chopsticks and leaning against the counter as he digs into the sticky white rice. ]
But Iβve been Cordis enough times to realize thereβs at least a certain pattern for me. The pheromones donβt do more than make me say stupid shit sometimes, otherwise I just wanna hug or something. So if you ever need a break, coming to my place is fine. I have a guest room too if you wanna be extra cautious.
