[To Rey, Alex has been good. It's more than she could've said about most when it came to her world, and in Lunatia she had even fewer numbers. There weren't that many people she knew before who would be so kind as to comfort a stranger as she had; it's a decency she won't forget.

[But it's good. That's enough for Rey. She hums upon Alex's touch, her eyes fluttering shut as she just savors the quiet of their breaths and the warmth of skin.]

S-same.

[Emboldened by permission, Rey crushes her lips to Alex's, this time devoid of the uncertainty and hesitation that possessed her before. Her arm slides further down, around her back and squeezing their bodies together with aplomb.

[Despite the fact that they had just been fleeing conflict barely minutes ago, Rey loses herself in the heat of that kiss, eager to give the very thing Alex said she wants.]

[ Hearing that she felt the same, induced by gems or not, almost felt as good as their lips finally meeting. There’s more pressure to it, pushing Alex back but held in place by Rey’s grip. It’s hard to tell if it’s Rey’s strength or Alex leaning in that has them pressed closer together, but Alex doesn’t loosen her hold on the other.

Lips part and the heat only increases, getting lost in her taste and the way Rey’s tongue feels against her own. Tentative but eager, and Alex finds her other hand tugging at Rey’s clothes as if it was possible to get closer. All this does is pin Alex against the wall, a small noise escaping her but devoured between the kiss. ]

[All things considered, veering from their escape of possible gunfire and hostile magic to suddenly making out in a stairway takes a bit of mental adjusting. Her adrenaline has to shift from fight or flight focus to a growing passion awakened within her, of which Rey has learned to oblige.

[Pressing Alex up against the wall once again, Rey doesn't leave any space between them for very long. She's all too eager to part her lips to deepen the kiss, her tongue exploring the new tastes and sensations of the other woman.

[Hands gliding down Alex's waist, her fingers curl around the fabric there just as Rey feels the tug on her own top. The combined excitement of it all lights a new fire that's at first communicated in a low grunt.]

Do... Do you want to go someplace... private? [Rey finally manages to get the words out between kisses, not wanting to stop long enough for either of them to think clearly. If they stop, she might have to dwell on the implications of what she's suggesting.

[Granted, the stairway seems private enough. For whatever reason, no one has passed by, even though this seems to be an occupied building. Maybe because its tenants are absorbed in their own distractions to bother the two women passing through.]

[ Whenever Rey pulled away, Alex chased after her, not helping her attempts to speak. But she does catch what she’s saying this time around, a part of her logical mind agreeing that they shouldn’t just be making out in the open like this. Teeth catch onto Rey’s bottom lip as they pull away again to communicate properly, a somewhat frustrated sigh from having to be considerate of others. ]

We…we should…

[ Were their places even close to here? Alex’s wasn’t. This was something they should be thinking about, but her eyes trail downwards, staring at the exposed skin of Rey’s neck before unconsciously leaning in to press a kiss to the side of it. ]

[Alex's persistence is... adorable. Rey chuckles when she finds her lips chasing after her own. Stopping is just as difficult as talking, neither which she wants. Her attempt at words turn into a wanton moan when Alex tugs at her lower lip, then moving to her neck. If there were ever two things that made Rey most weak in the knees, Alex found them.

[Even that kiss isn't enough to buckle her down, though. Steadying her breath, Rey collects her bearings to effortlessly lift Alex up by her hips, fingers squeezing around her thighs to prove she has a confident hold for them both.]

Wrap your legs around me. Have an idea.

[Home is too far away, and Rey isn't sure she could last that long. Her eye caught an adjacent door from the entrance. If this building is an apartment like she suspects, it's probably a communal laundry room.

[Seems private enough, it not locked. But she's exercised her magic and abilities to the extent where she might be able to temporarily short circuit those locks without trouble.]

[ Suddenly being hoisted up breaks her away from Rey’s neck with a small noise of surprise, legs automatically wrapping around her waist. Feeling those rough fingers sink into plump thighs does make her breath hitch, along with how the hem of he dress raises dangerously higher up her ass.

Her face is warmer with a mix of embarrassment, hands gripping those shoulders tight and trusting Rey’s idea is somewhere close by. It was getting difficult to not just latch onto those lips, especially when they’re right in front of her.

Alex doesn’t even bother with checking their surroundings, just taking the sound of the door clicking behind them as the okay to devour her lips once again. ]

[Getting the door open takes minimal effort. Some strategic zaps and it clicks ajar, allowing enough space for her to back into the dark room.

[Lights flicker on, triggered by their movement to reveal a small room with laundry machines and some chairs.

[Even better, a table.

[By the time their lips meet again, the door snaps shut behind them, giving them their much needed privacy. For all the outdoor coupling Rey had engaged in before, this is an exciting change of scenery.]

Mmm, up you go. [Her mouth curls into a grin between impassioned kisses, as Rey sets Alex on the folding table next to the machines. It's not a request to let go, though. In fact, the way Alex clings to her stirs Rey up so that she can't help her wandering hands from caressing those thighs, and her tongue giving the other woman's upper lip a teasing lick.]

[ The scent of fresh linen and laundry detergent fills the room, but it doesn’t take her focus away from the woman she was clinging to. Using the added support from the table, her legs draw Rey’s hips flush against her own. Eyes lidded and heavy with growing desire, Rey manages to pull another shuddering gasp from her, a soft whine following when she loses that attention even briefly. But Alex was paying attention, following after to suck at that bottom lip before trailing kisses along her jaw, then down her neck. There’s a flash of teeth before they press into her flesh, tended to after with the suckle of soft lips.

Her own hands start to move over Rey’s chest, tracing lines over the fabric before finding their way to hem of her top, teasing the skin beneath it. ]

[This time, without the distractions of being in a potentially high traffic space, Rey's attention is all on Alex. When she's pulled in, she dutifully moves forward, now able to relish the increasing intimacy. Her head tilts to allow more access to her neck, sucking in a sharp inhale through her teeth when she feels Alex's against her skin.

[Most of the time, Rey is comfortable being rough. Her partners are either not human or transformed, so she can forego any concerns of harming those she's with.

[Currently, Alex is another story. Rey has to keep that bit of caution in the back of her mind when she runs her hands down the other woman's legs. Her thumbs hook the bottom of her dress the same time Alex slips through the hem of Rey's tanktop -- as cold as it is outside, she rarely dresses for the weather. A minor detail that she's pleased to have overlooked when she went out today.

[Each gesture is gentler than what she's grown used to, but not unwelcome. Simply eliciting those little sounds from Alex is enough to stoke her own arousal further, as Rey tentatively nestles her hips between the other woman's legs with a contented sigh.]

[ A tiny voice in the back of her mind still reminds her to show some level of restraint, but less on power (she’s not that strong) and more on self control. Her hands pause where they are, mouth releasing the reddened spot on Rey’s neck. ]

Is it ok…to touch you more?

[ Alex hadn’t considered just how far they’d go, but there was no arguing that simply kissing Rey wasn’t going to be enough. ]

[There are a few things that could probably help if they exchanged words... Rey knows this, despite her inexperience with these kinds of encounters.

[What she does know is that she doesn't want to stop. The fact that Alex cares enough to ask just makes her more grounded.]

Ah, apologies, don't... really do this stuff much.

[She swallows hard, and then nods.]

P-please do, though. If you'd like. [The last thing Rey wants is to put someone in a situation they're not comfortable with.]

[ Hearing that this wasn’t a common occurrence for Rey was enough of reminder to slow down. Alex also didn’t want to do anything that made her uncomfortable. She pulls away just enough to meet those green eyes again, her desire not diminished but more control present. ]

I’ll only do what you’re okay with… I don’t mind continuing as we are.

[From Prismatica to here, Rey has come a long way with exploring new avenues about her sexuality. It was never a freedom she was allowed in any of her old lives, so these things started as a bit of a culture shock for her at first.

[Rather than withdrawing, allowing her instincts to push that she should resist whatever influence it was that has taken hold of them... Rey answers Alex with a quick but hungry kiss.]

Definitely okay.

...

Might be less okay if we stopped.

[She isn't sure she can trek all the way back home without relief.

[Fuck. How the hell did she get this way...?]

[ There’s a small sound of surprise, but no protest to the sudden kiss. Her eyes squeeze shut for that moment, opening half way and disappointed when it ends.

Although she’s not left disappointed for long.

With Rey’s approval, her hands slip further up the other’s tank top. The of her fingers tracing over scar and muscle, blindly exploring till they reach the curve of beasts. Alex hesitates there, seeking Rey’s permission as she stares into those green eyes. ]

[The care that Alex is putting into her touch speaks volumes for Rey. She isn't the type to push boundaries unless given the go-ahead to do so.

[And it's all too easy to give that approval with a slow nod. Her breaths shallow and wanting, she leans in to press their foreheads together, as her own fingers glide under the fabric of Alex's dress to hook her thumbs along the sides of whatever underwear the other woman wears.]

Okay to take these off? [Rey figures that's a request better conveyed in words.]

[ The touch if their foreheads is more intimate a gesture than she expected, eyes fluttering in surprise as she feels the bashfulness creep up her cheeks. There’s a pleasant warmth that spreads in her chest, but her attention is drawn elsewhere when she feels a tug a bit lower. ]

Yeah…that’s okay.

[ She doesn’t even look down, preoccupied with how beautifully green Rey’s eyes were, her own hands gently palming at her breasts. ]

[Times like this, Rey can't deny that there's a part of her that's always been soft. That she's craved this kind of touch and affection, only to deprived herself of the pleasures she never felt worthy to participate in.

[Alex's touch is too addictive to deny, though. Maybe it's because of the influence that's made her less and less about self-conscious of her actions, because there's a flash in her eyes that's carnal and hungry.

[Holding her breath, Rey follows through on her own request, deftly sliding Alex's panties down her legs and onto the floor. Her back arches, pressing her chest into that touch as she feels them drawn just a little bit closer.]

Hang on-- [Rey pauses to cross her arms from the bottom of her top, pulling both it and her bra up over her head to drop down onto the floor as well.

[Standing before Alex are more scars, from stabs and bullet wounds across her Rubied-marked chest and down the parts of her body that's usually covered. She hadn't really thought about how it might seem to most people, as the few Rey had been with didn't seem too taken aback by her old injuries.

[Not that she has much room to really dwell on it. The gemstone over her heart radiates a warmth that gives her feelings away all too readily.]

[ She unhooks her legs from behind Rey, the slip of fabric against her skin only making her more aroused, and more aware of said arousal between her legs. Her eyes widen when Rey starts to undress herself, exposing bare skin and the scars that littered it. Both hands reach out unconsciously, not bothered by the injuries but more drawn in by them.

It wad a familiar sight to her, and it’s felt like so long since she’d last seen a body like this. Her fingers trace over them curiously, gently, almost forgetting how they’d even gotten into this position. What were the stories behind each one? Did she live a life similar to that of her own world? There was still so much she didn’t know about this woman. ]

[Unlike the scars on her face, the ones over her body run deeper. Probably because most of them weren't intentional -- instead they were scars from incidents that were meant to kill her in earnest.

[As Alex traces them, Rey's gaze focuses on the other woman, studying her reactions.]

Doesn't bother you?

[From her expression alone, Rey is merely checking to make sure. Alex doesn't seem repulsed or taken aback by her body. In fact, just about everyone she's been intimate with were fine with them. Maybe that's why she just think about how they might look to other people...?]

No, not really…

[ They saddened her somewhat , knowing that the other person was hurt for it, but it made her more curious than anything. Curious enough, it seems, to lean in and press a kiss to one on Rey’s shoulder, and then another, her tongue peeking out this time to to trace over it before sucking gently at the scarred tissue. ]

[Feeling Alex not only touch but kiss her scars, Rey's breath catches. The fluttering feeling of her heart dizzies her for only a moment, before she collects herself again.]

Then it doesn't bother me. [Rey mutters, as if there was ever a question that it might. Because, fuck, there is something undeniably arousing about having her scars licked, in ways that she never thought it could stir her.

[With a contented sigh, she cants her head to allow Alex more access to her scars. All the while her own hands travel across the other woman's dusky thighs, returning to her newly exposed skin. Rey allows her fingers to pause just above the pelvic region, before finding their way to the warmth between Alex's legs. For now, her touch is feather light, testing and exploring.]

[ Her teeth press harder than intended when Rey’s fingers slide between her legs, already damp with arousal. Breath hot against the other woman’s skin, she tries to focus on her own actions, sucking hard enough to leave her own marks behind and laving attention onto other scars even as her hips roll forward, eager for more contact. ]

[The firm press of teeth brings out a sharp grunt, sending thrilling waves down her spine. Rey cranes her neck, resting a scarred cheek against the side of Alex's hair.

[Breathing in her scent, Rey continues. Her movements become more assured when Alex brings herself closer. Thumb rubbing against the sensitive bundle of nerves as Rey brings her middle and ring fingers to stroke Alex's wet entrance.]

Tell me what you want. [Rey huffs out the words, her voice heavy and huskier. Although she's certain she already knows what Alex's needs are, she's learned that there's a part of her that likes the verbal praise and direction.]

[ The teasing touch of Rey’s fingers has her whimpering softy against her neck, hips bucking to urger her on but to jo avail. Releasing her neck with yet another mark, Alex finds her face heating up more from the thought of saying these things out loud. Her fingers grip at muscular arms, nails digging in slightly. ]

Please…I…I want to…f-feel your fingers…inside…

[Pleased with Alex's response -- both verbal and physical -- Rey smirks and nods. There's a certain part of her, she has realized as of late, that revels in the novelty of words. Getting others to say such lewd things, or watching their reactions change when she says them herself, are all one and the same.

[So she complies. Not before leaning in to bring her teeth to the other woman's ear. All at once, she turns her wrist and slides her fingers in; resistance made virtually non-existent with the heat of Alex's arousal. Her movements start out slow, tentative. Almost teasing.]

Tell me how you want it. [It's both a command and a request. After all, Rey has not experienced this with Alex yet. Everyone has their own desires -- and Rey wants to be able to deliver what Alex needs.]
