Fisselig: Being flustered to the point of incompetence
—
Everything was going smoothly. Smoother than Remy had initially anticipated. He knew that while people believed he was incredibly approachable, Remy was barely capable of conversing with the people he worked with regularly, let alone a stranger. He had his people, the (very) few who could comfortably push Remy out of his comfort zone and he was grateful for them. Those same people were also the ones who pushed Remy into going out and attempting to date.
‘You can’t live in your cabin alone forever.’ They had a point, and despite his protest that he wasn’t alone (he did have his hound after all), there were other facets of human interaction that he did need, which couldn’t be satiated by some seedy website or overpriced movie. Besides, he could only rely on his imagination for so long. Online dating worked to help build up his confidence. Mainly because he could sound effortless, charming, and dare he say cool through the messaging systems which was a huge difference compared to his stammering nervous wreck when he had to speak to a person face to face. His friends also set him up on blind dates, many of which went about as well as he could expect, despite the nerves that seemed to wrack him but nothing ever escalated to the point where the invite back to his place or theirs; Remy learned quickly that he had to disclose he lived in the woods and was, not a serial killer, which somehow killed the buzz more than anybody would have anticipated.
This date, on the other hand, was going swimmingly. Tabitha didn’t care that he lived in the woods. Quite frankly, she was Intimidating enough that he would be the one who was lured into the woods never to come out again. Remy felt that Tabitha complimented him almost perfectly. Something about the woman eased his anxieties and allowed him to relax enough so that when the two determined that the remainder of the evening would best be finished off somewhere more private, he didn’t hesitate to suggest his place.
The tension in the air only seemed to thicken by the time the Uber driver had dropped them off in front of his door, there was very little time between them getting out of the car and inside the door before the momentum heated up. It was in one fell swoop that Tabitha found herself on top of the wooden dining table, half-dressed with Remy’s callused hands moving towards removing her jeans. She stopped him, not seeing the brief flash of panic that crossed his face, the fear that he had somehow fucked up and killed the mood. His button-down came off, her hands tangled into his hair, and their lips met hungrily. There was a sense of relief that relaxed Remy’s tensed shoulders at Tabitha taking charge, he was far enough out of practice that he certainly didn’t want to tell this woman who had very much taken charge what to do. He would let her lead and make sure if anything, she left more satisfied than she anticipated. Of course, this meant that he had to get over the fact that he was equally as clothed as the woman in front of him and that they wouldn’t be for much longer. Or the fact that if everything went horribly, he would never live it down and replay every moment that went wrong in his mind (and not in a good way) every time he would hopefully get as far if not further with another woman.
Tabitha pulled away quickly as if something had shocked her, and her face twisted from what he could only assume was lust to a brief look of embarrassment before the anger took over. A glance down and the now gaping space between them told Remy everything. Before he could stammer out an apology or an excuse or anything to potentially save the situation, Tabitha had dressed and was in the process of ordering a rideshare back into town. Back home and far away from the disaster that was Remy.
“I-I d-do-don’t- it-it wasn’t you.” He managed to get out, fearing the ire that would come from the woman tapping her foot impatiently, not bothering to glance at Remy back, let alone the time of day. He watched her tense up, a slow turn to face him again and Remy could feel the anger rolling off her in waves.
Instead, Tabitha said nothing. The ping from her phone let her know that her driver was five minutes away and to be ready to go outside and get out of this disaster area. Without another word, the front door opened, the chill of the night air cooled Remy’s hot face, and then closed once more, taking what up until a few moments ago, his date with it.

@wolfvirago || Yor
“Oh! Robin!” Yor’s eyes widened with genuine surprise, mentally going over everything that she had just done ... not because she was concerned that she hadn’t done something properly ... but because she truly hoped that there wasn’t blood on her skin anywhere, or on her dress! It was likely this was the most dressed up Robin had ever seen Yor before ... lipstick artfully placed, eyeliner done in such a manner that made her already beautiful eyes a more brilliant shade of crimson.
For a moment, Yor didn’t consider just what the assumption might be for the two of them to run into one another in a place like this ... this was a hotel, after all. Her mind was far too innocent in nature to come to that kind of a conclusion ... not unless Robin came to it first.
“What brings you here tonight?” Smiling warmly, Yor clasped her hands before her chest, head canting to the side as she did so.

@geleum: " i don't mean to ALARM - " the knight enters the quaint shop known as Bubu Pharmacy , he addresses the handsome man before him,
" but i've seemed to given myself a paper cut . "
rare - that he finds himself at the pharmacy proper these days. rarer still - for him to be out front to greet a patient. and even more rare - that the patient decides a papercut is a worthwhile ailment for dr. baizhu to pay any amount of attention to. annoyance lances through him like lightning, and he turns slowly - ready to give a light scolding to the owner of such dulcet tones but -
oh.
suddenly he is much more interested.
hands fold before him, svelte frame leaning across the counter in such a way that emerald tresses drag on silken smooth sandbearer wood. it's like he simply wants to get closer.
" well then. " comes his own intonation, equally... playful and dripping in intent. " we can't have that. " a beckoning quirk of gloved fingertips, and baizhu flashes his teeth in amusement. " come now. show me where it hurts. "

unprompted / always accepting / @gosutm :don't mind hannya suddenly pulling itto down by the straps on his chest for a soft but deep, lingering kiss!
“OH hey ba-” Before the oni even had gotten the chance to fully greet his demonic lover she had already ensnared his clothing pulling him lower, his eyes widening at the action but he quickly caught up with the program, closing his eyes as his arms wrapped around her frame, keeping her close and safe as their lips continues to dance along one another. She was definitely sweeter than any lavender melon he’d ever pick and it was definitely a flavor he’d never get used to. Every kiss felt like a new thrilling experience.
