I've just been thinking.
what kinds of things did we do together, you and I?
[ is there a less weird way to ask what your other selves are into? but that network post had her thinking about it, and so did klaus, talking about the person she'd been in fellden. and when she was wrathion, she'd felt just a little better that ... well, maybe it wasn't entirely aberrant for her to like some of the seemingly stranger parts of how duplicity carries on. the structure itself can be awful and some of its features enjoyable. ]

if he doesn't say anything for a while, it's because he's trying to figure out how to put into words what they did do. because it's not that she was here just the one time before, but more than once, and each time was essentially a reset. and one of those, he'd basically been her first. ]
You mean... what kind of things we did together?
[ maybe he should clarify first. ]
no subject
you clearly know what I like.
[ she's trying to make light of it because she knows it's a weird question to ask. but it's not like they haven't touched each other since she returned, either. ]
maybe even better than I do.

[ she latches onto this first and foremost. it's easier. light. there's a little delay between it and her next message. ]
I never asked you to hit me?
that's the sort of thing you mean by extreme, right? the sorts of things that are always on display around here.
no subject
Well, yeah. Of course.
But no, nothing like that.
Most of the time we were just together. Nothing extra. I think we might have gotten around to some of it eventually, but then you disappeared before that.
no subject
[ she hasn't asked before, but she'd just assumed it was long enough to not want the answer. after all, finn and poe have been here for years. ]
no subject
The second time it was less than that.
no subject
[ wow.
rey can't wait to avoid unpacking all of that. she hangs a quick left out of this conversation in a way that's, perhaps, obvious. she hadn't gotten the answer she'd hoped for, and she had gotten something that felt more confusing on top of it. she leans back on her old habit of avoiding the unpleasant. ]

[ which... he could get into the fact that technically, as of now, both of them have been here independently three times apiece, but he gets the sense she doesn't want to linger on the subject anymore. ]
Honestly, I would've preferred it without them.
no subject
what do you like?
what else, I mean.
no subject
I like taking care of people. Making sure they're enjoying themselves above anything else.
Sometimes that turns into following orders. Sometimes it's not as complicated as that.
no subject
[ it doesn't sound like a question, but it ultimately is. rey isn't quite deft enough to pin down that her impression is coming out of words like 'extreme' and 'complicated.' ]
that or you're afraid of scaring me off.
no subject
[ but he also hasn't pursued some of the things he's seen in this city because... they're just not anything he's interested in. ]
It also took me some time to figure out that I liked being bossed around. To have someone else telling me what they want me to do to them.
no subject
[ maybe she's the eager to please one. ]
it sort of makes sense.
[ she's thinking about the three of them — finn and poe and rey, and how he's attracted two best friends (lovers?) who butt heads because they're both so strong-willed. of course he's attracted to that. of course, rey's so strong-willed that she's just as likely to simply go for it as demand it, but she could try a little reserve. ]
no subject
[ hard without just showing her, and he still feels like he's not very good at expressing himself in this area sometimes. ]
Like if you wanted me to go down on you. You could
[ well, she hadn't made it sound like he could scare her off. ]
sit on me instead.
no subject
on your face?
[ she's gone down on enough women at this point to at least be able to figure out the mental picture. ]
that won't smother you?
no subject
[ now he might be joking with her a little. ]
But I like the idea of you just on top in general. Letting you control the pace.
no subject
[ and after some shifting and waffling, ]
I want to get off on your mouth first.
then I'll ride you.
no subject
[ it doesn’t matter if they’ve already touched; every time she indicates she wants more it feels like he has to pinch himself. ]
I want you to do that. All of it.
no subject
if there's something else you want.
no subject
no subject
I want to see your face soaked with me. I want to kiss you and taste myself and know how much you wanted it.
that's enough.
no subject
If there’s anything else you think you might be more curious about... maybe we could try it sometime. Together.
no subject
[ she just has to figure out what is on that list that he might like too. ]
