[ Despite their enthusiasm, let it be known that the residents of the loft really had taken care to socialize their pets. They just really love visitors. The bundle of fur and scales is amusing to look at ]
I'm sorry - here.
[ With a deft confidence of an owner who has multiple pets and has had to do this several times over she scoops the squirming leosylphs up, ignoring their protesting mews. From over top two fluffballs she offers him an apologetic smile. ]
Some days it feels more like a farm than a loft. Good news though! I think they like you.

[ Hilda has been to enough spas and cozy little inns at this point that Hilda is will aware that some things are considered extra. But being financially stable (and having two partners who are more than happy to spoil her), means that while she's more financially savvy than she had been before arriving, she's still more than happy to splurge. ]
But yes, let's.
[ She's quick to join Wanda on the sofa, dropping her bag onto the table and snuggling up to her. Her head fits neatly into the crook of her friend's shoulder. ]
Is everything okay?

( maybe it's the fact that wanda finds it easy to be cozy in the intimacy of a private space, without prying eyes, or maybe it's the allowing herself to relax with hildaโ what happens, though, is that wanda leans against the other woman, allowing herself to be snuggled upon without much protest. )
It's just been โ a couple of tiring months.
( they've been here so long, and they don't seem to be able to catch breaks proper, despite moments like this. )
I guess I miss some of the conveniences from home, too.

[ That has her sighing a little, her thoughts going to the changes that the Singularity had given her. ]
Tell me about it.
[ Perhaps that's why their friendship has always just worked. Hilda has never had a problem being affectionate or showing her affection. She respected others boundaries of course. But she still wanted to show people that she cared and that she felt comfortable with them.
Like now.
She cozies into Wanda's side, drawing her legs up onto the couch. ]
Things like the technology in your domain you mean?

( wanda doesn't think she could properly encapsulate what all 'technology' stands for in her more modern world. the conveniences of every day life, exacerbated by their lack here. )
You remember the television I showed you? There are these โ big theaters. You can go to them to watch movies. The chairs are comfortable, there's air conditioningโcool air that keeps being pushed in through vents, and you sit in the dark to watch people acting.
( a small comfort that she'd found while in america. she was just one more of many, and she could get lost in someone else's life. )
There's no real mindless distraction here in Abraxas. Maybe in the Cities, but we have to make our own entertainment in Solvunn.
( quite literally, too. what with wanda hexing a mirror to become a tv. )

[ Admittedly it's a difficult concept for Hilda to wrap her mind around when by all accounts, everything in the Free Cities was leaps and bounds beyond what she had been used to in Fodlan. But she's been educated since befriending multiple people from modern day Earth. ]
I was going to say that the closest thing I could probably offer you is the plays. Ed and I were going to work on recreating the one he'd written during our time as gods but...
[ Her voice trails off as she thinks about her funny friend who had gone back to what she hoped was a well deserved vacation.
The theatre as a form of entertainment has never failed to capture her wonder. The stories and the passion that went into the storytelling was something that she would never tire of - it's ironic that she had somehow found employment at the Old Public Hall. ]

You're right that there has been a lot going on. For all of us.
A friend of Geralt's has recently fled Thorne and come to live with us. Don't know if you've heard. On top of the whole war business and all. (And because of it, I'd say.) So I've decided to stay in the city a little while to keep close.
And I only just realized it's been some time since we spoke.
I hope you've been well.

[ The curve of his fingers is what she needed to send her from teetering to tipping right into her orgasm. Hilda's thighs grip firmly around his head, her fingers that had been twisting and tugging at her nipples pulling it taunt like she does with his hair. The muscles of stomach clench as wetness gushes between her folds as she shakes caught in that brilliant, devious gaze of his between her legs. She is unabashed in her release, eyes only shutting at the very last moment because she wants to sear this moment into her memory just like they had so many times before this.ย
It's something she never tires of though. Not this. Not him. Not them. She cherishes every moment that they spend together and that hasn't changed in the time that they've shared. Even before they had grown to each other intimately, before daydreams had blossomed into feelings that would forever change and leave their mark on her in ways she couldn't have imagined.
ย
Needy whimpers escape her throat as the tension slowly begins to ebb from her body. Her grip loosens both on his hair and her nipple but the aftermath of her orgasm leaves shudders in their wake. Hilda's chest rises and flutters as she slowly opens her eyes to gaze down at him with unfiltered fondness. Despite catching her breath she somehow she manages to look every bit the part of a smug cat. ]
ย
Okay, showoff. That was so good that I might have to selfishly keep you down there the rest of the night and maybe tomorrow too.

[ Claude keeps both his fingers and mouth in motion as she rides out her orgasm to intensify it if not bring her even more pleasure as he watches her all but arch against the bed. It occurs to him again and again, just as it always has that her fingers' grip in his hair, the way her thighs hold him there as she comes could be a work of art if only he had a paintbrush. And wasn't otherwise occupied exactly where he wants to be as her eyes shut.
Those whimpers ignite more sparks inside him with the need and pleasure in each shudder of breath as Hilda relaxes back against the bed and for a second Claude's well reminded of his own intense desire. He'd do something about it if he didn't have something else in mind as he sits up enough to press a light kiss to her inner thigh before taking a second to wipe his mouth and looking up to catch that satisfied look on her face. ]
Is that a threat or a promise?
[ Or both when it comes to where he should stay; either one would be effective on their own, and adding them together doesn't just double it but makes it exponentially so. Even if he's already spent time pressing adoration into her skin over and over tonight, it'll never be enough. Claude takes his time working in reverse as he moves up her stomach, between her breasts, on a collarbone until he's back even with and over Hilda to look down at her with a smirk. ]
Or should I hear that more as 'don't stop'?
[ Since he's not withdrawn his hand, after all, and kept it moving in even slower strokes to play on oversensitivity and send more shivers through her in the aftermath. Maybe a more accurate question is who will stop teasing who first. ]

[ And a god can't do for him what he can't do for himself. Self-sufficient as always, that Rocket. ]
I won't say no to treats. They got that uh ... ice cream over in Nocwich?
