@nightmarefuele may have had a certain Corvid-Boy ask how often does she self-pleasure....for science, of course.

To Add a Little Spice || -

In an instant Beth comes to several different conclusions after he crisply bites out each word of the question. The first is that she is grateful they occupy space in a coffee shop that lies in a triangle between his place, her place, and the university library where they'd begun this latest assignment. An exercise in verbal intimacy and navigating emotional openness in a clinical setting. Becoming familiar and empathetic toward one's patients. The second is that despite being at this for over two hours, the permafrost in his gaze remains. A shiver runs down her spine. One that tasks her will not to allow be visible, though maybe if she weren't wearing her knee-length cardigan, he'd see the rush of chicken-skin it provokes. Third is that this is the first time in weeks she's seen a touch of amusement curve his lips. By no means a full smile, there's a grim sort of tilt to his mouth. Something she'd more likely call smug than welcoming. Beth considers refusing him an answer. There are hundreds of other questions on the list that they'd been given. It would only be fair as Jonathan at various intervals refused certain ones; anything about his family. Anything regarding his childhood in general. Not that she blames him, her first refusal came over the question about the relationship she has with her parents. Sea is her mother. The earth is her tutu. He would likely never understand what she means by that and it skirts too close to a truth that can not ~must not~ be spoken aloud. Not that he'd believe her if she told him. He's too much a creature of logic and reason. Even if she were to flay him down to the bone, down to the soul, Beth would be hard-pressed to find any wonder at all in him. Jonathan isn't an old man for banality to have him so tightly in its claws. She picks through the ways she could answer him. How truthful she's willing to be. She can't quite shake the feeling that she's going to both bore him but also make him question how many of the rumours are true. Will he ask about her brother, then? Make a lot of the same assumptions? If she were anyone else, would she do the same? Will he think she's frigid? Disdainful of anyone she deems beneath her and not in the way meant in later questions? Will he think she's lying? Their notes aren't due for review until next week. Maybe she could suggest reconvening? No, that would be a victory for him. Knowing he got the better of her. Beth sighs. Leans forward and picks her chai off the table and takes a sip. She looks at Jonathan's hands ~elegant, aren't they? expressive~ at his notes, at everything but his eyes, vivid behind his glasses. She takes hers off and perches them in her hair. She can almost hear him purr the words 'staling tactics and furtive movements'. "I…uh….I tried it once. Alone one night, anxious an' maybe a small kine irritable. Night was too hot, too close. Almost felt…alive. I'd try yoga, a bath…." She enunciates the word pitifully so there is no misconstruing her meeting. Her hands end up folding in her lap, knuckles fitted together, fingers upward and curled before lacing together. Her pulse ticks at her throat. Her breath is shallow, uneven. "Swimmin' in da indoor pool. Reading. All da usual sort of t'ings, right? An' jus….put on some music. Saint-Saëns ~ Le Cygne, f'ya curious. Poured myself some wine, lit some pikake flower candles. Uh…jasmine. Dat's what pikake means. I pick up my phone, look at some videos jus' so I had an idea. But….but it no work f' me, you know? No reaction suppose t' have. No heat or passion, no…you know. If anyt'ing it was awkward. Uncomfortable." Her voice lowers to just a bare movement of her lips. "Guilty. Sinful." She swallows and shrugs, now not looking at anything but her hands, almost accusatory. "Don' see a point in it. Don' really see one to any of dat." Now he knows. Now he can dissect her, make fun of the fact that she's … "Wha' ya firs' memory of bein' sexually 'roused?"

Lost Sparks || -

When Chris wakes up, the half the bed is empty. Residual warmth demarcates where she might have been curled up, the question-mark of her back pressed into his side forming some kind of strange new punctuation. The ghost of her perfume ~she makes her own essential oils~ lingers on the sheets same as that fading warmth. A faint combination of lily and jasmine, which she calls pikake. With its black-out curtains and no lights on their hotel room is dark and time is nebulous. It could be early morning or still late at night. When he gropes around for the light and turns it one, the pale yellow glow lights on the second bed. Their suitcases are packed. Everything is orderly. The bedside table has their tickets and their phones. But there's no Beth. Neither is she in the bathroom. In fact when Chris finally finds her, she's in the suite's sitting room. Thick socks rise up to her knees and each individual toe is a different colour. Foot gloves, she calls them. Her sleep shirt ~one of Andy's old tee-shirts~ falls to her knees, and over all of that she's wearing his bathrobe which could explain why he hadn't found it when he abandoned the bed. It dwarfs her and the hem brushes the ground by some inches. The collar is raised to cover her lower jaw and she seems to be cuddling into it as she stands by the window, one hand twitching the curtain aside. Even that makes it hard to judge time but does suggest dawn. "I hoped I nevah wake you but uh… O'Hare is shut down, all flight's cancel," she murmurs without turning. Her features are softly illuminated, the grey world beyond caressing her like bright moonlight. She sucks the corner of her lower lip between her teeth and chews gently for a minute or two. They were supposed to head back to Arizona today, now that the holidays were officially over until spring, and she knows that having the bakery closed for so long might make him panic for business and customer base. She isn't a storm-wife. She flows with the primordial elements, but neither does she create or destroys them. Transmutation of them is one thing and she doesn't have the hubris required to believe she was an actual god. "No can change dat, but I also don' know how long we might be stuck here. So tell you what… I'll pick up anoddah day or two of dis suit. If…f'ya worry about da bakery, I can cover da profits f' January, take da pressure off, yeah?" Then she grins. "But ya not gettin' dis back," she shrugs inside the robe, "unless you plan on carry me back to bed an' ordah room service."

If Gen 9 is truly based on India, I believe Mina will make another appearance.

Why? Her name is short for Jasmine 

which in Hawaiian is “Pikake”

which literally means peacock

AND THAT’S INDIA’S MASCOT BIRD!!! 

MINA IN GEN 9 CONFIRMED!!!!!

melaco, blue elf, and wooly rose ~

ty for humoring me Danielle 💕💕💕

melaco: how would you describe a perfect date?Food HAS to be involved - not even anything fancy, but I love to eat and try new things so going somewhere I’ve never tried before is always a great start to a date. I also enjoy just walking around, talking, and people-watching!!! In like a busy park or downtown area :’)

I’m also cool with the classic dinner and movie (either in the theater or at home snuggled up!).

blue elf: do you have a favorite scent? I think my absolute favorite scent is jasmine - specifically pikake (no clue what it is in English lol), it’s sooooooo fragrant. I also love lavender! As for non-floral types of scents, the smell of frying garlic and onions is awesome!!!!

wooly rose: what are some names that you like? I’ve always really really liked the name James - I don’t personally know anyone with that name but it’s so classic and strong to me! I also like the name Keiana (kay-ah-nah), in part bc of the actual pretty name, and bc the girl I know by that name is hella talented and sweet.

✨send me some succulent asks!!!!!!✨
