[ sits on her knees next to them, reaching for a cup of soup as her face steadily goes pink. She's not looking at them, though. ]

... yes.

I'll be here to listen whenever you're ready.

[ nod nod. they reach for some soup too, taking a sip. ]

[ oh that's a lot of pressure.

She's silent for a long, long moment as she eats her soup and debates what to say, until-- ]

We-- ... um, I mean, recently, I... ... ... with... my hand--

[ struggles for a bit. ]

I mean to say. I... pleased him. N-nothing more than that, though. But I... had questions... I cannot ask him.

[personal profile] beautifulend 2021-04-28 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh!

[ they lean forward to nuzzle against her cheek, tail wagging. ]

Congratulations! Were there any problems?
vitainmorte: (it's empty Achilles)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-04-28 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
[ lets herself be nuzzled, face hot with embarrassment. ]

N-no, it-- went as expected, I think, but um--

...

I'm... worried? If... we do... more than this.

Ah, I see. He has a voracious appetite?
vitainmorte: (and therefore I never lie)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-04-28 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
No-- what? No. I don't know? I don't think so? He doesn't really ask for...

[ a pause, shaking her head and looking away again, anxiously crumbling crackers into her soup. ]

No, it's-- he's... big. Really big.

Oh. Oh! Well, that's not too much trouble! I assume you're intimidated?

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-04-28 07:11 am (UTC)(link)

... yes? I don't-- know how I'm going to-- ...

[ trails off, embarrassed. ]

[personal profile] beautifulend 2021-04-28 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I could demonstrate for you...
vitainmorte: (I'm talkin to you)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-04-28 07:35 am (UTC)(link)



Sorry?

[ they giggle softly, wagging their tail. ]

It was a joke. I'd imagine something like that would be too close of a violation of my promise to Sir Tequila Sunrise.
vitainmorte: (don't listen, Achilles) (more poignant than fame)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-04-28 01:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[ flushes, but turns back to her soup. ]

... more importantly, a violation of how far I'm willing to go with you.

[ a pause ]

In any case, the problem isn't-- he's not the problem, I mean.

Mm. Cypress, that's already a rather poor way to think about it. Neither of you are the "problem".
vitainmorte: (no one asked for your thoughts) (You asked for my counsel)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-04-28 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
...

May I be frank?
vitainmorte: (You are absent of cause)

[personal profile] vitainmorte 2021-04-28 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
... I don't think he would ever say he was displeased with me. I don't think he believes he's allowed to-- feel nice, from this, in the first place.

I fear if I'm unable to-- to... do that, it would only serve to frustrate him, in the end, no matter how much he may like me. I don't really care if it's reciprocated, either, I just... want him to be happy? I want to be useful, for him. I don't want...

[ trails off for a moment, stilling her restless soup stirring. ]

... I don't want to be... replaced, I guess, with someone who can do it properly. I want to be good enough.
