“I cannot speak for what happened at the convention. I was present for parts of it, but did not see the events in the hall.” Hikaru finally spoke up giving his impression of the parts of this he was aware of. “But I know demons. My family has fought them for many generations, I can not say with certainty what Shinigami is, but she is not a demon. Did not act like them.” There was one other key piece of evidence, that convinced him more than anything. “While at the temple, they prayed to Maxim, the Demi-god our temple is dedicated to, distant ancestor of us who live there. They hoped for his help. He gave them an audience. He unfortunately was not able to help, but that he tried and showed no hostility to Shinigami was the ultimate proof to me that she is not an enemy. Unfortunately it is only proof to me and others in the temple, will not make wider acceptance easier.” He then sighed. ”Reika on the other hand is harder to figure out. She appeared twice in the temple, to my unease, though she never attacked. I do not know why she would have told us to meet you either. Nothing you have told us benefits her, in any way I can see. If she wanted to try to manipulate us, it would have been easier before meeting you.” Was a fight inevitable? It was hard to say, the biggest question was what happened after Mitsuko was healed and whether Reika continued to try to appear around Jumi, Mitsuko and Shinigami. He was troubled by her, but it remained to be seen if there would be a fight, if so, he was unlikely to be there. Umi quietly rested as Shinigami did her thing, it was nice. Not rushed but not especially long, good and thorough. She adjusted her position when needed but remained mostly still and quiet. By the time it was done, she was cleaned of the most obvious evidence of what had been done, but she still had the feeling of the experience. One of her few remaining innocences taken away, given away. When it was done, she relaxed sone more, but eventually, she opened her eyes, watched sone of it. She thought it might be interesting to see how different it might be, even if the differences might only be minor things.

I already recruited/tried recruiting everyone I thought might be interested. Outside of some inactive members returning, like RenRen or the long inactive AirAllie (who helped inspire the club with a private RP the two of us had), I can’t do much more to help there but others are free to consider new people. But my stuff will hopefully pick up in activity again shortly. We will see what happens with Emiri, but still going to give a while to see if RenRen returns before considering other options on her. Gardsorm may join in too at some point, when he has more time to write again.

Well, Nall threw it all out there. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it was a lot for the others to digest. Jumi was not entirely sure exactly what to say next. “…Yeah, more or less, my thought process and motives were a lot different between when we left the convention and when we returned just before it closed.” It was probably better to let them process it and figure out what they wanted to say or ask before she said too much. The trick of course was not to leave the wrong impression of what happened. It changed everyone involved, but in good ways, not Mitsuko and herself being corrupted. There was a danger some might jump to that conclusion, but hopefully Kaida understood it was not the case, Jumi at least not coming off as a Broken Girl. Hikaru remained silent too in the moment but was likely to help if there was any negative confusion. Umi took the moment to relax, the waters were of course quite familiar to her. She had used them her entire life. The only thing different his time was her companion and some of what had to be washed. She had an experience unlike any in her life, it would a while before she did anything like that again. Even when she eventually found someone else, most likely her future husband, it would be different in a number of ways. It might not happen again with Shinigami, but she was happy she made the choice. Relaxing, taking in that sh had experienced something quite enjoyable and special. Her eyes were closed, but she was unlikely to fall asleep. She was quite satisfied, not very tired.

Will hopefully get some replies in tonight or soon after. Had an unusually busy time recently, and it usually takes me a bit to get my head back into writing after I go this long without writing. Work might or might not be annoying in the short term. Have a four day Thanksgiving weekend coming up, but have to see if that impacts the week and a half of work I still have before then. First Shinigami I just have to get my head back into it, brief thoughts about my other stuff: Still had not got a chance to write some more for Azreal. Still may want to do that before getting back to Alexandrine. But might get a reply or two in there first, depending on how things go. Emiri and Zorn remain on pause, with RenRen’s continued deactivation. I’m still hoping that is temporary and she will eventually be back. Will wait a while still, but if not might have to consider alternatives with Emiri. Emi is sadly gone, only to be referred to when it makes sense, between Chiyako having trouble getting back into character/leaving and the rule change. With the rule change, even if Chiyako does return at some point, safer for her to make a new character now. I would hate to lose Emiri too though. Will still wait a while, see if RenRen comes back, otherwise might have at least consider something there, whether see if someone wants to try to continue the character or make their own version of the character (helps that Emiri has only had little to no interaction with most characters so far, so a new version of the character would require little adjustment to stories).

Jumi wondered how much she should say. Not out of mistrust, but not wanting to trouble Kaida and hopefully not complicate things. But she had to admit at least some of it. “That was where we found her yes. Shinigami was not exactly out in the crowd, but we did run into her in the back halls there. We did not really know what to expect, went along with her to a house she was staying at to get her away from the crowd. Well, a lot happened there. Place got destroyed after Reika decided to introduce herself to me in a dream. Lost the one place Shinigami could easily stay long term. Leading us first to the temple and now trying to figure out what to do from there.” Umi took the moment to relax, not overly troubled at the moment over the bed, though the sheets were in a condition they had not been in before. Dirtied by fluids that she had been unaware of before the whole experience. Something would probably have to be done about that, but it was still fairly early. It was probably more important to clean herself. She let out a content sigh. “That would probably be a good idea. The sheets can be taken care of later, easy enough to replace.” She remained still, relaxing on the bed for a moment, letting Shinigami move at her own pace and to see how she did.

It was not that Jumi did not see where Kaida was coming from, she certainly did not want to dismiss a whole village being wiped out. Something she had not heard of, and she guessed Hikaru had not either, based on his expression. She had to wonder whose territory it fell under, it did not sound like anywhere in her area at least. It was too much to process in the moment, and she would not be heartless enough to argue over it or wonder whether it could have prevented if not for the convention. There were too many unknowns and it was a tragedy no matter the circumstances. The team responsible for the area would have to figure out what happened and who was responsible. ”Yeah, the biggest question, figuring out what to do long term with Shinigami.” She moved to the more pleasant topic of conversation, the biggest issue that had been weighing on her and would continue to do so, especially after things with Mitsuko were resolved. “No quick or easy answers there. Going to be difficult to move her around, though her powers might help.” The biggest trick was to sneak her into the apartment. Once there things would be pretty cramped, but Shinigami would hopefully be able to use those portals she could make to avoid it being too suffocating, especially while she and Mitsuko were out. “Going to have to get Mitsuko better trained to, but that is less of a mystery, just hard work.” She had some idea how to do that, Shinigami might be able to help too. It was something that might eat into their downtime for a while, but needed to be done. There was something different this time, though Umi was not sure what that was, it did improve the experience more though. Stretching her further, though not uncomfortably so. She was making an endless stream of noises she never imagined she would have made before today. Hopefully not loud enough to be heard by anyone outside the room, an endless stream of moaning and groaning. It was building up stronger than before, something more intense. She was not trying to delay it, it was like her body was begging for more, squeezing Shinigami inside her. Then when she released, Umi was shaken by the wave that came over her. A much longer, deeper moan as it came over her, an intense wave of pleasure throughout her body. An intense moment of pleasure. Then it was over. She was left panting, her mind fuzzy, as she took in the feeling, so brief, wondering if she would ever feel something that intense again.

Jumi could see the point, but as one veteran to another felt it worth addressing the point on the convention. “No offense taken, though like I told Mitsuko, it’s nice to have a few days to relax and the crowd appreciates the chance to see and talk to us without there being something around trying to kill them.” The convention had value to everyone involved, as far as she was concerned. A few days of relaxation would not doom the world. Worst case scenario, Magical Girls/Knights could leave the building to deal with a true emergency. Or teams from further away could be called upon. It was a regional, rather than world wide event, partially as a precaution to avoid having everyone on break at the same time. “I’ve been doing this since I was a little kid, those sort of events are the only time I consider myself truly off the job.” A little extra about herself, that while she was young, she had been doing this along time, but maybe not as long as Kaida. She was not so convinced the ‘war’ would ever be over. Mostly because it was not just one enemy, new ones kept showing up, but it was nice to see someone so hopeful, she would not say anything about that. Not something to argue over. “We will see what happens. After tonight and the next few days. Some things are planned, some things we don’t really know what to do about. It is nice to have the offer, whatever help it might turn out to be.” The was the short term issue, hopefully, with Reika and Mitsuko healing. Then they still had to figure out the big question with Shinigami. Other more positive changes too, seeing how living together with Mitsuko and it seemed Shinigami was going to work. Helping train Mitsuko as a Magical Girl, probably other things. Umi might have been pleased by a new surprise, but she was happy with what she was getting as well. Would just take more of that. Though it was unfortunate it was getting close to the end. She would have loved to feel this a while longer. But she did not know how much control over all this Shinigami had, whether she was capable of doing it like this much longer than she was. Rather than risk rushing it, or making Shinigami uncomfortable, she did not say anything, just let Shinigami be encouraged by the noises she was making, and her body’s other very positive reactions.

More information was out there now. Better or worse. Jumi assumed at this point that Tenshi was at least aware of Kaida’s true nature, to speak this openly about it. Though it was not clear if she was a Magical Girl too, or just someone who was aware. “No team, completely by yourself?” She indirectly asked. It was not ideal to reveal yourself to a random civilian, but she assumed Kaida had a good reason, if Tenshi was in fact a civilian. She would not dwell on that though, let Jaida answer or not however she chose. She instead shifted focus to the offer, wanting to verify the details. “Well, we will follow the plan. Eat first, take you to the temple to meet Shinigami, but exactly what are you proposing we do from there?” It would probably be too awkward to do anything long term. Nothing like being proper teammates, but help might be useful. It would also be useful to Mitsuko to have Kaida around while she was at school. Not a place Jumi could visit incredibly frequently. Umi could not think very clearly right now. But she did not know when she might get another chance like this. Whether or not Shinigami had any more unique surprises for her, she wanted more of this. She did not know if she would ever feel anything like this again, if she did, it probably would not be soon. “…y, yes, mm more…!” Her voice filled with desire for more. Trusting Shinigami to go further but not too far. That at great as it felt so far, as much as she appreciated the gentle touch, she wanted a taste of something more at the end. A hint of what else could be experienced.

Anything else Jumi might have said about Mao was distracted by Nall’s talk. She felt some sypathy for him, had to address that both to try to make him feel better and since she had been there for everything except that first attack. “It isn’t your fault Nall.” She was a little careful how she said it, not sure if Tenshi was a Magical Girl or aware of what Kaida was, if not. “She has had a few very difficult days. Most people, Magical Girl or not, don’t have to experience being attacked by a goddess without warning. It was great she managed to get to the convention. The rest, I’m as responsible or more than you. Some of it, as much as I don’t like it was unavoidable or turned out a lot better than it could have. I intend to be more careful. Not let more of this happen.” Going along with Shinigami had been the only option, to avoid anyone dying. But now they had a Shinigami much closer to them and unlikely to kill except in self defense or defense of her or Mitsuko. They did the right thing, but had to be careful about doing something like that again. Reika was not Nall’s fault. He was not there. She maybe should have tried harder to talk Mitsuko out if it. She just had to, with some unease and reluctance, trust Reiko about her being returned healed and that she would ‘like what she saw’. But she did not want to say too much about that. Umi was still not entirely sure what she feeling. If there was some purpose to it other than maybe increasing pleasure. A tighter fit, but so far at least not getting stuck and she was not sure if that was even possible. It was a very interesting felling though. Much more intense than last time. She gave off a frequent mix of moaning and groaning. A slight hint of discomfort, but mixed with the more intense pleasure. She did not want it to stop. “More…more…as much…as you can do.” She definitely did not want Shinigami to rush this. As last time, to go as long as she could. Also open to any other surprises Shinigami had. She did not know if this was the full trick, or Shinigami had more surprises for her as she kept going.

Jumi watched Nall a little, but was glad the other two showed up before long. It seemed to have went well, no contact with Reika. Kaida mentioned a wound, one she kind of remembered seeing while exhausted in the bath. Though she did not really know anything about it and was unsure if Shinigami did either. It was not something she was inclined to ask about. Maybe better not to know about it, after learning more about Reika. She was not inclined to ask Mao either, especially while eating. Though she was eating at a more normal pace now. “I could not tell you anything about that, but I’m glad it went well.” She was still trying to figure out what to think about Reika, but Mao seemed to be closer to Shinigami, no reason to have any negative feeling about her. A new position. It looked like Umi would get more of a taste of the beast after all. She tried to secure herself. Pushing the knees into to the sheets and gripping them with her hands. But there was something new this time after all. Something she had not felt before. The soft moaning and familiar pleasure interrupted by something more. She groaned mostly in surprise. Maybe some discomfort. But not bad enough for her to want it to stop. She took a moment to get used to it, figure out how much more she would feel it. “…Still…had a surprise for me?” She could only guess if this was something unique to Shinigami.

Jumi and Hikaru took seats and waited the last moment for Tenshi to bring their food. They had been permission to eat, though Jumi took her time wile giving Nall encouragement. "You have been patient, don't take your time for our sakes. Though hopefully Kaida and Mao will be able to join before they are done." She said as she had taken a few bites, Hikaru only eating mildly faster. This had been Kaida's idea, so she would prefer for the three of them not to already be done by the time she was back. But she was not going to go so slow to let the food go cold or anything like that. Worst case, Kaida could be offered food at the temple when they went to meet Shinigami in a little while. This meal and the examination of Mao perhaps being the last things before they headed over. "Well, now you are making it hard to choose." Shinigami had a way with words and technique, it was getting a little difficult to choose one. This was enjoyable, if not in the same way. But she was tempting with what she already knew, but more intense. Something new. And now it was back in the familiar place. Part of her wanted to feel Shinigami end in the back, part of her wanted to feel this new suggestion. It was a very difficult choice. She was not going to pushy, not try to ask for both. Let Shinigami decide if she wanted to change her mind on that. Perhaps settle on a more simple answer. "But if I must choose, the one you think will be most enjoyable for both of us." She had a guess what that meant. That it might deny the symbolic pleasure of Shinigami finishing in all three places, but it might still be better this way.

Jumi would not have minded playing with dog a little longer, but it was probably best to eat. Especially not to keep Nall waiting, with how hungry he was. Giving one last short toss of the ball to the dog, one that he could catch and play on his own if he wanted, she and Hikaru let Tenshi lead the two of them to their meal and a probably rather hungry Nall. Hopefully Kaida and Mao would join before they ate too much. Umi let out a soft moan to Shinigami’s other touches. A nice boost, to help what she was feeling below. Perhaps nice, pleasant, but she was not sure how much pleasure she would get out of it. If this alone could give her one of the orgasms. But like her mouth, she looked forward to the experience. The talk of being rougher was appealing too, just unfortunate she might not feel it from the other side. Was there something a little different in Shinigami too? She was not sure if she felt something that was not there before. But now Shinigami was going again. Enjoyable, but not that same pleasure from earlier. “…Think…I’m ready…for rougher, when you are.” She encouraged Shinigami, not to rush it, but she could go rougher when she thought the moment was right.

Jumi nodded, confirming Tenshi’s suspicions. “Kaida asked to examine Mao, she was okay with it. Don’t know exactly what they are doing, but she said they would be back soon. Decided to try this while waiting for them.” Hikaru, seeing that the dog seemed to want him to join in, picked up the ball and threw it in Jumi’s direction, but light enough the dog could catch and take it to Jumi, if he wanted. “Not sure if it is best to wait here for them, or go in now.” Jumi continued, letting Tenshi give advice on the next step they took. See if it mattered just how soon Kaida and Mao were back. Hopefully there were no issues, or Reika wanting to have an unpleasant private chat during the examination. Another surprise position shift. Her bedding probably already needed to be cleaned, so Umi had no issue there. She focused on keeping herself prepared, no idea how this might feel. Possibly a little nervous, but not in a bad way, she still wanted it to happen. The only thing left Shinigami might be able to do to her that she had not experienced yet. Then it went in. Different, not the immediate direct pleasure she felt from the other side. But still an interesting feel. And knowing the sort of thing Shinigami might do now, she was eager for more, but would let Shinigami do it her way. Wait and see how she did it. “Different, not bad.” She gave her initial evaluation, too soon to know how it might go from here.

That was interesting, Jumi was not sure what Kaida hoped to learn, if it had anything to do with Reika. But she did not see Mao causing any trouble. She did not want to bother Tenshi and Nall either. Just her, Hikaru and the animals. He was still just quietly watching too. She decided to fix that a little. “You should loosen up sometimes. Go over there.” She gestured with her head to some distance ahead of her. He glanced down. “You have some strange idea, I’m sure, but very well.” He doubted it was anything too troublesome and walked forward a bit, before turning to face Jumi, who had picked up the ball. “Gonna throw it your direction, see if he gets it and brings it back. You just grab it if it goes too far, or he grabs it but does not bring it back.” Kaida said he liked the ball, but she would have to see if he would properly fetch it. She tossed the ball in Hikaru’s direction but not especially hard or fast. Umi let herself be repositioned, feeling some of the excitement pick up again. A little unfortunate that it sounded like this would be the last part, but she was happy enough to give it a try, to experience one more new thing. She did not move, curious to see how it would happen, in what way. And too see how it would be rougher. “Well, there does only seem to be one possible place you could be suggesting, if not I’m in for quite the surprise.” She answered, a little playfully. Unless she had some part of her body she was somehow unaware, she saw only one way this could go, and prepared herself.

Jumi was a little surprised that the place might cover something that exotic, but it was nice someone did. She could not imagine it was very often. Something to keep in mind, Mao she did not know if would be around much longer. But if Nall needed help for something eventually, it might be an option. Reika was more likely to help Mao too, for better or worse. “Don’t know about familiars, but who knows, might bring Nall some point if he gets sick or a more mild injury. He was sent by a goddess though, he says. Said goddess might help if he is in too much danger.” She hoped so at least, that they would not have to look for something if Nall as in real danger. “I only have a vague idea where she is. Been given evidence she is fine at the moment and will be returned. Mitsuko wanted to do something to make herself stronger. It did not quite go as expected. She is recovering at the moment.” Going to visit Reika was something Shinigami might be capable of arranging. But she did not go to the place uninvited, unless she had reason to believe Reika was breaking her word. Umi paused to finish with what was inside her mouth. Swallow the rest, while listening to the offer. What Shinigami meant was clear enough, but now she had to consider it. She had to assume it was different. It was not exactly something ‘meant’ to happen. But it sounded like Shinigami had experience with it, it should go well, she would have to trust. She was innocent about some of the potential issues with it, did have a little curiosity towards it. She finally pulled her mouth back, still taking the lingering new taste in her mouth. “If you think it would feel good to end that way.” She had a little eagerness in her voice, but was not completely sure what to expect.

Jumi nodded along to the updates on the work situation. “Well, don’t want animals to be sick or hurt, but hopefully you don’t have too much business trouble from here on.” A delicate issue in that line of work. Since it was not clear if they did checkups or other preventative care. Other than that, the lack of business was a mix of good news bad news. Less money for Kaida, but at least more healthy animals. She reached for the bell for now, tried it, to see if it would encourage the cat. Still just petting and scratching the dog for the moment, as she heard more from Kaida. Nothing completely surprising. ”Thought it was a possibility. But then you can understand why I did not want to make assumptions or say anything too quick.” Just how much to say without worrying her though? She could decide as she went, but at least a little. “But knowing that, I can tell you more. Mitsuko is in fact a Magical Girl too, though she has only been one for a few days. Nall is actually more connected to her than me, though he is cute and fun to have around.” At least a little more. “Her disappearance is related to that. Though I can promise neither I or Shinigami will let anything happen to her. She will be brought back home.” Whether to admit Reika was in fact involved was the one thing she was hesitant to admit, if only due to past between Kaida and Reika and Kaida perhaps being more reluctant to take Reika’s word she would healed and returned unhurt. Shinigami’s reactions were interesting. The sort of thing Umi was still getting used to. She was happy to see signs she appeared to be doing well though. Going along with it, she adjusted as Shinigami’s hips moved around a little. Her head shifting some but more or less keeping her style up. Then it came, she knew it was coming, but still had to try a little to avoid opening her mouth in surprise. She let it flow into her mouth. Let it linger a bit, a new taste. One she had to assume was at least somewhat different from a human’s but after a moment, assuming if it was safe in her womb, it was not dangerous to do, she gradually began swallowing it. Her tongue still rubbing against the shaft, and she waited a bit to see if more came out.

“I was telling her, might bring Mitsuko here some other time, once she is back. Thought she might like it. Even if she probably won’t see these animals. Any chance she might be surprised by something more exotic being here?” Not anything comparable to Nall or Mao of course, but maybe something more unexpected than a cat or dog. “I’m having a good time here, don’t mind waiting until the food is ready. See if one or both of these two want to play or anything.” She was patient enough, happy to spend a little time here, with whatever company chose to stay. Whether Kaida just wanted to talk, or do anything else was fine with her. Hikaru and Mao seemed content as well, Hikaru just quietly watching and listening. Umi’s technique still did not really change. She did not have much idea how to do it better or worse, but the suggestion she was getting close, the extra encouragement, it pushed Umi along a little more, more enthusiasm. More eagerness in her somewhat innocent and random movements. But there was affection and desire involved. A desire to please Shinigami. To taste what might come when it was done. That was enough to make up for any lack of her own pleasure. She might not want to do this sort of thing frequently, but she could see her wanting to do it and enjoying it from time to time.

It’s okay, I’ve been taking longer than I meant to get an Alexandrine reply in. Going to see about giving Azreal a little more fun before I do. May start getting that going again at some point today.

It was fun, Jumi occasionally thought about getting a pet, though she did not know how practical it would have been in her apartment. One that would be much more crowded in the coming days. It could be nice to have occasional visits with some. “Well, that will be in some days. So she probably won’t see these, but maybe see others that are just as nice.” These particular animals might not be seen by Mitsuko, but Jumi thought she might still like the feel of the place and any animals that might be there at the time. She considered asking if they sometimes had anything more exotic, though Tenshi left before she could ask. Wondering if there was a chance of something more unusual when Mitsuko did finally see it. She gestured with her hand a little, seeing if the cat might approach. She would let them decide if either wanted to grab one of the toys for now. Just doing more of the same, if they did not. Umi was pleased she seemed to be doing at least somewhat well. Based on the reactions. Not sure if she was capable of doing better. But she would just keep it up, if not given any suggestions. She had asked to be taught, but it looked like Shinigami wanted her to learn on her own. “There are no unpleasant smells.” She reassured. The head petting seemed to make the tongue a little more enthusiastic, the sucking slightly more frequent. “It is an interesting taste.” She observed, realizing it was probably a mix of her own fluids, what came out of Shinigami and the taste of Shinigami’s flesh, similar but different from a human’s. Whatever she tasted, it clearly did not cause any hesitation for Umi though.

Nall having joined Kaida, it was mostly up to Jumi it looked like to give the animals any attention they wished. Hikaru and Mao standing back further. She pet the dog a little, tried scratching the neck. She was not sure if it was in condition to play, or if there was anything to play with around. But she would give it a little affection, if it wanted. “I might come back another time. With a student here, who may like the place.” From what Kaida said earlier, it did not sound like Mitsuko had been here before, but she might like it. “Hopefully I can help Kaida, knowing at least some of what is troubling her.” It was probably better not to talk too much about Reika here, keep everyone in lighter moods. See what happened next time they met. Any other meetings between then and Mitsuko being healed. She had been thinking about it since talking to Kaida, but was taking a break. Hopefully meeting Shinigami would help her feel better as well. Umi kept at it, without advice on technique or anything, she more or less fumbled through it. Or just clumsily did what she liked. Mostly sliding the tounge around. Wrapping it a little, an occasional brief suck. She did not just yet touch anything else. If there was a curiosity toward the other part, she did not immediately act on it, focused on one thing at a time. Curious how easy it was to bring Shinigami to orgasm with just her mouth. There was no pleasure for her, but she found it enjoyable enough to want to continue.

Jumi gestured for the dog to get closer. Play with at least it a little while, before eating. Let Kaida take as much time as she needed. She could relax not think about the things that she had on her mind more or less since the manor. She would let Tenshi do what she wanted or needed to. Not thinking much about it, except that it was a little funny she had now in few days met people named both Shinigami and Tenshi. She tried to encourage Nall a little though, with what just happened. “Have to be a little patient with cats. Less likely to be friendly, at least with strangers, than a dog.” She would focus on the dog for now, though if the cat came closer, that would be nice too. But it was harder to predict a cat, especially one you did not know. But maybe if they were patient and friendly enough, it would approach. It looked like Umi accomplished the most important thing, smoothed over the mistake. She now just had to be careful not to repeat it. She took the hint too, to listen as she ate the fruit, preparing herself for what came next. Two tastes? Was that was she was suggesting? Not only to take the shaft just inside her into her mouth, but to follow the example of Shinigami, learn a woman’s taste? There was the question of either tasted different from a human of course. She did not worry about that now though. Instead, placing her free hand on Shinigami’s hip, feeling a little of both of what she offered, as the fruit was finished. She then adjusted her position. Her face approached the next meal. Still hard, well sized. It was very appealing to look at, even if she did not actually want to eat it. “…Well then…let me give it a try…”. She was not sure what to actually do with it. Took it into her mouth. Rubbed her tongue around it. Getting used to the feel of it being in her mouth. Something that was rather enjoyable. But she did not move much yet. Playing with it with her tongue a little, seeing how much of it would fit.

Dai’s idol agency may get some attention too eventually. Beyond that, still have to think of other possibilities for locations or/setting ideas. Which possibly will become easier to think of as the story develops and we eventually look outside the Garden.

Wanted to wait for you to be back and read up on stuff before committing to most of it. Ryoko's childhood home at least is around as an option for if anyone wants to visit at some point. My other idea that got most of the attention seems like it will be included as well, for any characters that want to get up to that stuff hacking into each other's brains, though details could still be worked out. For now, the characters can get back up things into the Garden, see where that goes. See if Ryoko gets pulled into anything crazy. Dai may get up to something, though perhaps more everyday for him.

Jumi was still in Rose Fairy mode as she came out. She suspected she would be well into the night, either until she went to sleep or at least until Kaida finished at the temple. She was guessing Kaida would not be a guest at the temple for the night, but it remained to be seen. See how long Kaida wanted to be around, how comfortable Shinigami was with it. Hopefully the woman’s warmer ways would make up for the connection with Reika. She nodded with a smile to the new woman. “Nice to meet you.” Then stepped forward and knelt near the animals, seeing if they would approach or try to interact, or possibly run to one of the others. Hikaru remained standing a few steps back, letting others have a probably fun moment. Jumi looked happy to have a moment of relaxation that had been relatively infrequent in recent days. Jumi thought about maybe bringing Mitsuko here for a bit later, possibly part of reassuring Kaida that Mitsuko was fine. Umi frowned at the reactions, she had overstepped her place, crossed a line without realizing it. “Forgive me for offending you, in my ignorance, I suggested something I should not have.” She was not going to rely on it for an excuse, but hoped Shinigami might be more forgiving with her than others, being so new to this. She had made the offer in hopes of fun for both, to get a little more sense of ‘the beast’, but she had upset Shinigami instead and hoped to correct it, before the moment was completely ruined. ”I will follow your lead, suggestions.” She would not suggest something unprompted again. Safer to stick to basics, learn what Shinigami was willing to teach her. “Perhaps I will seek food, or more accurately a drink of my own.” She suggested, watching Shinigami eat. To consider a similar option that might please Shinigami, but waited for her to adjust position to do it.

Jumi had to wonder what proof Kaida could discover that would help them. She did not seem to share a connection with Reika beyond her old life at this school, did not seem to be an expert in such things, that could find something the rest of them missed. But she was opened minded, since Kaida really wanted to meet Shinigami, they would let it happen. See where it went. It could not hurt to try she figured. “We will follow you to your place first then, and I will lead the way to the temple when we are done.” Hikaru said as they made their way back to the parking lot and their group to his car. Letting Jumi relax a little in the seat again, curious to see how Shinigami would react to the new woman. One who knew Reika, but was not like her. She thought it would be a nice relaxing rest of the day. Then she would have to see if anything happened while sleeping, or if that would come later. For now Hikaru just started the car, waited to see Kaida and would follow the lead to her house. It was worth the question. Umi had no idea if there were any surprises, other quirks about Shinigami’s body she had no idea about. The whole knotting thing might technically have counted, but she did not know enough to be aware of that possibility or think about how she felt about it. No magic apparently either that might influence their time together. She had to consider more conventional options. Things she might experience later, with someone else. There was also the consideration of giving attention to Shinigami’s womanly parts. But she wanted more of what women normally did not have. As for other holes, she had to consider those. The idea of having something like that in either of them an idea she had not previously considered. ”I had to consider whether there were other options I might not be aware of, before making my choice.” Maybe indulge a little more of the beast side? Encourage Shinigami to do a little different in a new way. She was a beast, but a rather unique sort. There were not others like her out there…but there were, how would she approach them? “Forgive me, if this is too difficult for you to decide what to do. But if you can answer this, demonstrate it, it might be quite enjoyable.” She added with a bit of smile, hoping she could put into her own words properly. ”Assume you were out there somewhere. The wild, another place, whatever you believe most fitting. You come across me, as another like you. I do not have all the parts you do, so unfortunately we cannot imitate this perfectly. Putting that aside. Assume I made some gesture to show I was interested. How might you treat such a partner? You don’t have to go light on me this time.” An experience that delved more into the beast side. What Shinigami might do with another non-human. It was possible Shinigami had never considered it, she had the opportunity to at least partially explore it, if she wished. If the lack of certain parts made it too difficult, Umi was willing to consider something more simple and practical.
