Two Worlds Collide RP (NTI and BurningWillows)

Kyara giggled and nodded.
"After the meal, it's mainly about you two spending time together really. Nothing special. Terra was simply doing something for you that she's not used to doing. A way of compromising so to speak. She wants to help you as all lovers help one another."
When Kiha asked about kissing Kyara laughed at that.

"It's not an exact science my dear. Just lean in and press your lips against Terra's. She'll get the hint. Closing your eyes after you've locked lips will allow more passion to flow but that's for someone comfortable with kissing."
Mainly so that she could make sure she was actually kissing her lips and not her chin or cheek. Coordination was key there.

While Kiha had been over looking her body, Terra sat still and just smiled at her. Her scales, in good lighting, gave a certain shine to them, mainly because she'd recently shed. To the touch, they were soft and yet hard at the same time, mainly where scale met scale is where the hard ribbed feeling came from but just gliding one's hand over was a soft, sleek feel.

Terra decided to take the lead and leaned her head down, placing her hand on Kiha's as she softly kissed the female, closing her eyes into the kiss and letting Kiha somewhat take the lead to explore kissing.
 
“But is there like...like a way to do it right?” Kiha asked, just getting more and more red. Her mother had passed too early to teach her and her father was not the sort of man to have these talks with her. She had been banned from dating too, as she had been arranged to marry Sebastian since she was 10.

Terra leaned in then, kissing her and the kitsune jumped and shivered, for a solid three seconds freezing up again then tried to close her eyes and kiss back. She closed them tightly, squinting and forced her lips too hard, almost butting Terra’s head back. She pulled back and had never been redder, her ears still up but all her tails a mess, swooshing everywhere as Kiha tried to get her mind straight. The two on Terra stayed, but their ends flicked like a rattle snake would, until she calmed.

“I’m sorry,” she pointed at herself, looking pathetically at Terra, “I’ve never kissed before.”

It didn’t help that they were two different species. Terra had a snout and Kiha’s face was far flatter, humanoid save for the birthmarked whiskers on her cheeks and the tiny fox fangs that only flashed when she spoke. Kiha had even noticed Terra’s mouth was different, her fangs and teeth longer and sharper, and was her tongue different too? Kiha hadn’t met many reptiles to know. She had seen a snake and a gecko once as a child in the gardens but most of her experience came from books.

It didn’t help that Kiha was under watch of Kyara. She was happy for the translation, but it made it uncomfortable trying and failing to kiss in front of another. But Kiha was learning her views of privacy had to be compromised at times. As Kyara had explained time and time again, privacy wasnt quite a thing on this planet. When Kiha had walked in on two making love in the hot springs near the clan and nearly lost it seeing another two ignoring them and chatting in their tongue while a third watched them with mild interest, just there for the soak, it had taken Kyara much efforts to calm the bewildered and embarrassed kitsune and explain these affections were praised upon in the clans because it showed love and happiness, and again Kiha’s long drilled in privacy showed. It just brought her back to the day at the lake when Sasha had openly fondled Terra in front of both Kyra and Kiha and neither seemed to mind, and Kyra hadn’t looked upset in the slightest.

Kiha didn’t want to think about Sasha though. They hadn’t gotten off on the right foot and now Kiha could see jealousy was laced in her thoughts of Sasha. Perhaps she had been more interested in Terra from the start than she realized, and Sasha’s touching had striked a nerve she didn’t know she had. She knew she’d have to face that nerve again, next time Terra butted heads with a clan member or gave greeting affection to an elder, or worst Sasha but Kiha was working on it. Evident by letting Terra hold her hand and kiss her forehead for the past week without permission. Although now she realized sitting next to Terra gazing at her, that there had been more feelings behind that too.

“Don’t move,” she spoke softly, holding up a hand stop Terra from moving. She moved her chair, scrapping it to face Terra directly and breathed out, sitting facing her and reaching for her hands, running her clawed fingers along the tiny scales there, marveling at their soft feel when she did. She could tell they were hard, but together they felt nice to stroke under her thumb.

Okay. Here goes nothing.

She swallowed dryly and leaned forward, deciding to close her eyes and felt her nose bump Terra’s about and giggled. She couldn’t help the laugh. She felt ridiculous messing such a small thing up. But the giggle was pure and it had been the first they had heard from her. It had taken her long enough to smile that Terra had pointed it out. No doubt they’d point out the giggle. Least it was for Terra.

Sighing she opened her eyes to try again, this time focusing on where she was heading. It wasn’t romantic in the slightest, but Kiha found her lips pressing to Terra’s finally, and didn’t push any harder, finding them and stopping before she ruined it, kissing her so lightly her lips felt like a butterfly against Terra’s but she succeeded. She pulled back and smiled, even flashing her teeth as she squeezed Terra’s hands tightly.

“I’ll learn,” she promised, “I’ll learn.”
 
Terra smiled as she felt Kiha's first kiss end just about the same way her first kiss had ended. Sloppy and almost painful because she'd rushed it. Keeping hold of her hands she let Kiha collect herself and while she did that, she watched Kyara get up and head for the hot spring, sensing that Kiha did need some privacy. Which was something else that Terra would need to work on herself. In her clan, public displays of love and affection were not only accepted but also appreciated as they showed that the paid were in fact serious lovers and not just some quick fling. However given how shy Kiha was about this, she'd need to remind herself to keep that kind of action to a minimum.

However at the same time, she would need to make her uncomfortable at times because that also showed who belonged to who. Males and females alike in her clan were starting to take interest in Kiha from her visits as well as Terra's interest and while she was now Kiha's lover, that didn't mean someone else couldn't come in and try to steal her. Until she was officially mated, even if they were lovers, they were just courting lovers, not mated.

Looking up when Kiha said not to move, Terra sat there and watched the female with curious interest. Glancing at their hands she smiled as she felt Kiha's nose bump against her snout and that giggle had to be the cutest thing she'd heard come out of Kiha since she arrived. Smiling she wanted to kiss her just for that giggle then got a brief chance as Kiha finally gave her a good flush kiss. Not a very long one, it was but a whisper of a kiss but she got one.

Lifting one hand she cupped Kiha's cheek and nodded.
"Teach me. Your name?"
She asked as she winked, then opened her mouth to show her long slim tongue and tried to click her tongue which didn't work. Showing her that some functions of Kiha's tongue weren't possible with her long one.
 
Kiha paused, soaking in the hand touching her cheek this time in full, trying to ease the butterflies in her stomach. She had to be less spooked. Eating that meal had told Terra she was giving permission for more affection. Kiha knew that. Part of her was terrified and part of her was ecstatic.

“My name?” She blinked, then smiled before Terra opened her long mouth and showed her tongue. It was far different from Kiha’s short small one, long and slender. Kiha had her first dirty thought, remembering Terra licking Sasha’s neck and wondering if that tongue would touch her those ways too now. She had never had such a thought but was already blushing from her clumsiness to blush any harder.

“Ki’hanna,” she spoke loud and clearly but slowly, “Kiha with Na at the end. Ki-ha-na.”

Whenever Terra spoke her name the ‘h’ almost sounded like ‘th’ and she knew why now, seeing her tongue try to make the sound, moving differently then Kiha’s did.

“Do you have longer name?” She asked in return, pointing at Terra and making a long space with her two hands, “uh...longer name? Name in your language? Your tongue?”

If she did, Kiha felt it was only right she learned it too. She struggled to speak even the simplest of their words, but she had learned hello and goodbye in their tongue. She couldn’t say it yet but she understood when Terra said it, and could wave back or respond in her own tongue. A baby step between them, but still a step. She used it when they visited the clan with Terra, hearing the greetings and not feeling so clueless. She didn’t butt heads with others but she waved to the children or greeted them back with hello best she could. She had grown a bit more favour this way, showing she wasn’t a threat to them. She didn’t see most of the clan though. With the worry of those ships coming she saw few children in the clan unless they were with their parents, mainly the adults. And she did not have the clearance to go below to their safer sanctuary. She understood. She wasn’t that trusted. And she was unaware that any had started looking at her the same way Terra did. She still assumed she was the alien to most.
 
Terra smiled as she spoke Ki'hanna's actual name a few times, trying to work her tongue so that it wasn't completely butchering her name. While practicing her tongue placement she looked up as Kiha asked about her name. Smiling she showed Kiha how to position her lips and while it still sounded the same, there was a hand motion as well, palm down moving horizontally across.

"Means Earth...or nature."
She said as she smiled. Her mother had noticed that as soon as she was out of her egg, she wanted to be outside and move around so that spurred her mother to name her Terra.

When it came time for them to sleep, Terra moved to Kiha's bed and while she was technically her lover, she didn't push for anything. Simply laying in the bed, she was still clothed and let Kiha lie down against her like they usually did. This time, instead of kissing her forehead or her cheek, Terra kissed her lips and smiled.
"Dream sweet Ki'hanna."
While she still had the 'th' sound for her name, it was the closest she could get at the moment. While they slept, Terra's tail ended up coiling around one of Kiha's legs in the night but nothing too extreme.

When she woke the following morning Terra still had her arms around Kiha and her tail, Kiha's head under her chin as she looked down at the female and smiled, stroking the back of her head while her soft breaths grazed along the tips of Kiha's ears.
 
Kiha repeated her name, and like Terra butchered it at first but started to say it a little clearer and better each time. Neither would probably ever say it perfect but Kiha was alright with that, somehow finding it cute how Terra pronounced it once she could. She hoped Terra felt the same and wasn’t too embarrassed of Kiha’s misspronounced version, her tongue not able to make every sound perfectly.

Sun was setting and Kyara wasn’t anywhere to be seen now, off enjoying her private hot spring. After such a hike it was clear Kiha was tired by her yawns after a while of practising names and Terra offered bedtime. She stood up and followed, and the thought only struck her when they reached the little curtain that cut off her bed from the rest of the cave that she wasn’t sure what lovers did in bed. She knew of sex. Her nanny had given her a few books when she was a teen, so she’d stop asking questions about what it was like to like another boy. She had never thought of liking a girl. And yet she had always felt repulsed by Sebastian, even on first impressions, even when he tried his best to not be a cocky jerk. And the first thought she had ever had about Terra? That she was beautiful.

Thankfully Terra simply crawled into bed, still wearing the small bits of clothing to make Kiha comfortable and patted the bed next to her. Nothing new. Nothing extreme. Nodding she slipped off her boots and crawled in, again letting her tails settle where they liked, knowing they might end up on Terra in the night. And they did. She fell asleep quickly, and by morning her tails were cocooning them both once more on accident, keeping them comfy and warm. Kiha woke the the ticklish feeling of something brushing her ears and realized it was Terra’s soft breath, making her ears twitch adorably in her sleep. She didn’t move, letting herself wake up and notice that they were sleeping much closer than last time, Kiha now more in her arms than just arms reach, her head tucked under Terra’s snout. She noticed the long tail wrapped around one of her bare legs too and blushed with a tiny smile. It was the most skin contact anyone had had with her. And she didn’t mind it one bit.

Slowly she leaned her head back, waking more but she didn’t pull away, her tails still atop them both. She was hyper aware that they were touching, but simply laying atop felt nice. She pulled back till she could angle her head right and placed a sloppy kiss on Terra’s lips then giggle-sighed.

“Need practise,” she explained, blinking back sleep till those golden eyes were watching Terra’s, “Slept well? Comfy?”
 
Terra smiled as she felt Kiha moving, looking down and backing up slightly as she giggled and shook her head. Returning the kiss.
"You're perfect."
She said as a response to Kiha's mention of needing practice. Kissing was a skill one developed over time but her sloppy kisses were adorable to Terra.
"Good morning. Good sleep. You?"
She asked as she nuzzled Kiha's neck a bit, not really wanting to get out of bed just yet. Her tail still hooking around Kiha's thigh and the only real movement was Terra wiggling down so that she could nuzzle the smooth skin of Kiha's neck and shoulder.

Today was actually a special day, today Kyra was turning the equivalent of about 9 years old. Still a child but it was a special day regardless. Sitting up a bit Terra smiled.
"You come to clan? Kyra's birthday. Nine cycles."
She said as she smiled, beaming due to how proud she was of Kyra even if she wasn't her blood child. Looking down at Kiha's tails she smiled and moved her hips a bit, just moving them from side to side.
"Soft."
She said as she giggled. Leaning down she placed a small kiss on Kiha's neck, her tongue snaking out as the two forked ends teased just under Kiha's chin.
 
Kiha grinned shyly at being called perfect. She felt far from that, but the compliment was nice.

“Good sleep too,” she replied her eyes widening a little more as Terra wiggled down enough to put her snout under her chin. It didn’t take much though. Kiha was almost half Terra’s size, as kitsune weren’t known to be all that tall and female kitsune were often shorter but Terra’s clan were rather tall and it seemed their species in general grew to a fair height. On aspect Kiha wasn’t even five feet tall, standing at 4’7. It made Terra’s body much longer than hers on the bed so as Terra wiggled down, Kiha’s toes touched her knees, the tails still snaked up Kiha’s one leg comfortably. Their skin was so different, hers flesh and Terra’s scales. The feel of their skins rubbing - tail to leg and snout to neck - was new and both odd but satisfying.

Terra only nuzzled her a bit though, then edged up enough to look at her.

“Kyra’s. Nine cycles...like birthday? Can I come? I would like to.”

She hadn’t thought of Kyra when Kyara had told her about being potential lovers to Terra. She had been wrapped up in this bubble here with Kyara for a week, it hadn’t dawned on her that Terra had a child of her own, adopted but still. Kiha wondered how that would complicate things.

But Terra didn’t let her brood over that. She heard the giggle and refocused as Terra adjusted her hips back and forth, the furs sliding over the scales. Kiha’s tails shivered but she stifled it from coursing through her entire body.

“Soft yes. Feels nice,” she added, pointing at what Terra was doing, “That’s okay. Gentle.”

No one had touched her tails in forever, since her mother used to brush them. It was weird to allow someone to again. But it was also warming. And Terra looked so curious about them it was adorable. She leaned down and kissed her neck and Kiha did shiver then, feeling the long forked tongue run up along her jaw line under her chin. Her mind shot to that moment at the lake again and now it was her.

“Shivers good,” she murmured, “Feels nice.”
 
Terra smiled as she looked at Kiha, sliding hr hand along Kiha's cheek as she pulled up and kissed her lips deeply. Pulling back she winked.
"Can feel better...later."
She said before slowly getting up and stretching her arms over her head before motioning to her clothes.
"Change. You come."

Terra had every intention of bringing Kiha with her to see Kyra. Kyara would be coming as well. While she waited for Kiha to bathe and change, she got some fruits together as well as some scraps of meat for breakfast. Seeing her lover as she was now dressed she did notice how her hair looked different. Cocking her head she motioned to Kiha's hair.
"Darker?"
She asked as she was unaware of the way hair was when it was wet verses when it was dry. Kyara smiled as she looked at the two.

"You two are adorable together."
She said as she giggled and sat down for breakfast as well.
"She can help brush your hair now, while you brush your tails."
She said as she had her own brush to brush her hair and her own tail.
 
Later? Kiha was curious about that but didn’t ask. She got up as Terra moved out of her tails and unwrapped her own around Kiha’s legs. She had enjoyed it but they had to get ready at some point. Rummaging through the small basket Kyara had lent her with a couple change of clothes, she picked one out then went to bathe, pushing back the small curtain. She had asked for it only to hide the bed from the rest of the room and shield the light from the mouth of the cave from leaking in. It gave both her and Kyara a little more privacy in sleep, though that was more for Kiha’s sake as usual. She knew her way around now and disappeared to bathe alone, coming back dry and clothed, her hair and tails wet. She dropped her dirty clothes on her bed to clean later and joined breakfast. With the heat of the jungle she was wearing less clothing, comfortable in her favourite red outfit still but otherwise joining the loincloth fashion, although hers was more of a skirt, wrapping almost entirely around with the belt and being a bit longer. Kyara had to show her how to sew to fix it, as it sat higher on her waist than it did with others due to her tails, not to mention the tails got quite in the way. All her other clothes were tailed to fit her tails in so when she slipped them on she could clip the back closed and there was a hole big enough around to wear comfortably and modestly.

Other than her skirt, she wore a halter like Kyara’s, a single piece of cloth that wrapped around to hold the chest in place then crossed over and knotted behind her neck. It left as little to the imagination as her own clothing did, but showed a little more skin. But compared to the others wearring next to nothing or nothing at all, it was enough.

“Wet,” Ki’hanna explained, leaning to let Terra touch it, “Wet makes it darker.”

She sat down and ate before even starting to brush, though she let Terra start, working her wet hair free of tangles and getting the full experience of how hair really worked. There was a lot of “ow” and hisses as Terra found a knot and had to comb it out, while Kiha tried not to flinch. When she was done though Kiha gave her a sloppy kiss and finished her food, before starting to work on her own tails, and Terra listened as a purr worked its way up Kiha’s throat, rumbling as she kept her mouth closed and worked quickly so her tails were soft and fluffy, the long giants each laying one by one on Terra’s lap as Kiha finished purposely until she was under a pile of them.

“Soft?” Kiha asked playfully, testing herself again with Terra. It wasn’t so bad. And Terra was so gentle. She didn’t tug or grip tightly and cause pain. She more looked than touched for now.
 
Terra smiled as she carefully ran her hand along the fur of her tail and nodded to the mention of it being soft, but she leaned in and gave her own kiss to Kiha's lips and nodded.
"Softer."
She said as she winked before standing up and helping Kiha to her feet. Soon the three left the cave and headed for her clan home, but they went in another way, going to the hidden clan underground home.

Once there, her father was giving a few flowers to Kyra who was bouncing with excitement as she'd already gotten some presents from others and when she saw Terra she ran over and climbed up Terra to hug her as Terra returned the hug and spoke softly in her native tongue wishing her a happy birthday, then kissed her cheek. Kyra then looked at Kiha and smiled, waving and saying 'good morning' in their language. Terra carried Kyra over to Kiha and let the two greet one another while Kyara looked at Terra's father with a smile. Her father smiled as well and gave her a bow which made her shake her head at him and tap his head like he should know better than to bow.

Kyra was currently talking about how she'd learned to use more spirits when Sasha and a few Primal's walked in. Sasha was holding a small piece of tech that was powered by the sun and was basically a little night light for Kyra's room. Showing her how it worked so that it looked like stars were decorating her ceiling. Kyra was very happy with that as she greeted Brock who smiled when she climbed up his back and giggled as he gave her a ride. Sasha then walked over to Terra and smiled as she greeted Terra, hugging her and giving her a kiss to her neck, right under her chin which made Terra give a polite smile but she stepped back out of range and spoke in her own language letting Sasha know that she was courting Kiha.
 
Kiha walked down to the clan hand in hand with Kyara. It felt comfortable now to do so and while they walked she got Kyara to quiz her on native words, trying to repeat them back. She was terrible at most of it but when she got frustrated she spoke Terra’s name clearly, even making the hand gestures, and while she couldn’t form her tongue perfectly, it sounded almost 80% correct, making her a bit more proud.

When they arrived, Kiha was surprised to find themselves moving underground, but quick to say hello to those they passed, doing her best. Most understood and greeted her in return. Then they found Kyra and Terra’s father and Kiha waited next to Kyara as Terra spoke and greeted them, waiting for her turn. She wished Kyra good morning in both languages then happy birthday in her own, making sure to call it life cycles like Terra had. She listened as Kyra rambled on, smiling softly at the young girl’s adorable ness though she only caught half the words, but was focused enough that while she heard more approaching behind, she knew not who they were until she saw Sasha from the corner of her eye hug and kiss Terra. Instantly her body stiffened and both Terra and Kyara could see her tails vibrating angrily in the air as her ears turned back, but she tried to control them from flattening or her face from showing any emotion in front of Kyra as she spoke. Jealousy was raging off her, and unfortunately she did not know what Terra was saying to Sasha but she wished she did, unable to focus both on Kyra’s tale and whatever Terra had said, both in a tongue she was still just starting to learn how to comprehend. From what she gathered from Kyra, her lessons were going well, but she hadn’t caught a single word from Terra and that only made her more jealous of how close Sasha was.
 
Terra glanced over at Kiha, noting the look she hand. Moving around Sasha she slid her hand into Kiha's and kissed her forehead softly, whispering to her.
"No anger. I told her. You're my lover."
She said as she stroked Kiha's hand with her thumb to try and calm her down while Sasha smirked and looked at Kiha.
"Jealous much? Been on the planet for less than a month and already laying claim?"
She teased before giving a nod.
"Treat her right...but before you two mate, I will be getting my night with her."

She was mainly joking but part of her wanted to have at least one night with Terra. She'd been the one female that Sasha had wanted mainly because she was a unique female and Sasha was curious. She wanted to taste her. Seeing how Kiha reacted made Sasha giggle as she lifted her hands.
"Easy fox. I'm not saying now...but know that I want to take your potential lover for a test ride."
Terra looked a little confused and Kyara just giggled as she shook her head and looked at Kiha.
"Unfortunately dear, till you two are mated, both of you have the potential to have others show interest in you and possible take action with that interest."
 
Kiha eased with Terra’s touch. For all of a moment before Sasha spoke and the kitsune was back up in arms, looking sharply at Sasha and squeezing Terra’s hand tightly. Her tails shook harder as they moved to create a sort of barrier between Sasha and Terra.

“No,” she said flatly, and surprise she had the guts to say that much, but it felt right. She wasn’t going to let Sasha have Terra, not for a night, or a test ride. The idea made her tails rattle and she felt like hissing with jealousy but held it all in. She looked back to Terra and shook her head, thinking it was done till Kyara spoke up.

“Oh,” Kiha looked nervous at that. Others could try for Terra? What if Kiha wasn’t enough to keep her loyal? Or if her jealousy did rear it’s ugly head and drive her towards someone else? Like Sasha. Kiha didn’t even bother to think that anyone would have interest in her. The only other person who had wanted her was Sebastian, and it had been purely for his benefit. Not out of feelings.

And he was dead now anyways.
 
Terra smiled at Kiha and shook her head. Taking her hand and moving it so that Kiha's hand was resting over Terra's heart.
"Your's."
She said as she smiled, kissing Kiha's lips in front of Sasha who just giggled and shrugged.
"Ya win some ya loose some. Better keep her happy, I may see if I can sneak her away."
She said with a wink then whipped her tail around to mimic Kiha's tails.

Giggling as she walked over to Kyra to help her off of Brock's back while Terra shook her head and slipped hr tail around Kiha's leg. Nothing to restrict her walking, but just something to let her know that Terra was trying to stay close to her. Terra's father looked at Kiha for a long moment then sighed as he looked at Terra, speaking in their language once more as Terra nodded and frowned at her father before Kyara stepped in and slapped the male's shoulder making him clam up as Kyara winked to Kiha.
"He's just being a grumpy dad. Ignore him."
She said as she smiled.

Terra then walked with Kiha and found Kyra playing with her spirits. Terra pulled Kyra onto her back and smiled as she had planned on spending the day with Kyra, but now...she'd get to do that with Kiha as well.
 
Kiha smiled softly, placing her hand over Terra’s to let her know she appreciated it. She was still clumsy at kissing but she didn’t bump Terra’s snout hard anymore. She ignored Sasha’s taunt this time, trying to kiss Terra again. She felt the tail wrap and blushed, smiling adorably at Terra as they held hands and focus returned to Kyra. She jumped a little when Kyara whacked the chief but then nodded to her.

“Oh. Alright.”

She followed Terra over to Kyra, still holding hands as the little one climbed up Terra’s back. Kiha smiled at them both.

“So what do we do for her life cycles day?”
 
Terra looked over at Kiha and smiled.
"Depends on age. Now, she's almost juvenile. So, enjoy youth and childish games. Next year. She's starting training for Shaman more serious."
Walking with Kiha, Terra spent a better part of the morning and into the afternoon playing games with Kyra and some of the other children before she'd had enough and let Kyra go play with her friends as she sat on a pile of furs in her dwelling. Holding Kiha beside her as she rested.
"Exhausting."
She said as she huffed but smiled.

Running around with Kyra was a hell of a work out but she was happy to see the child smiling so much and laughing so much. The threat of a possible war had all of the adults on edge so to have this one day as a bit of a break was nice and it made things a lot easier on Kyra who was so open to the spirits, which meant she could sense all of that tension.
 
Ki’hanna nodded, learning. They spent the day playing with the child, both growing quickly tired. Kiha had never exercised this much. By the time they flopped down on a pile of furs in Terra’s own dwelling she was still a little out of breath and sweaty, and tired.

“Exhausting yes,” she nodded, turning her head to look at Terra, “Kyra happy though, yes?”
 
Terra smiled at the question and nodded, leaning in and giving Kiha a kiss before looking up.
"Bath? Join me?"
She asked as she stroked Kiha's hand with her own. It was a bit of a step, mainly for Kiha. Kiha had seen Terra nude more than once but Terra knew that her seeing Kiha naked would be a bit of a step for her. However they both could use a bath and the hot water would help to sooth the sore muscles that she was sure Kiha was currently feeling.

That and part of Terra wanted to show Kiha what she'd meant when she said later.
 
“Bath?” Ki’hanna squeaked, sitting up in surprise. This soon? Shouldn’t she get good at kissing first before Terra saw her...naked?

“Is that...too fast?” She asked, turning to look at Terra, “uh...no clothes...big step.”

She pointed at her clothes and made a gesture that it was a big step. They had held hands and kissed a dozen times. Kiha had little knowledge of relationships like this but least she knew that had to be too fast...right?

She pointed to where Terra’s bath was, “We bath together but I keep clothes on. Okay?”

It was the best compromise she had. Terra would still get bath time together, and for now Akira would stay dressed, though there wasn’t much on her self.
 
Ah well, it was worth a shot. Looking at Kiha, Terra smiled and shook her head. Motioning to the bathing chamber.
"No clothes. You go. I wait."
Smiling she let Kiha go and bath first. While she was gone, Terra made some tea for herself and for Kiha. While she was doing this, Sasha walked inside the house and offered some supplies that she'd delivered from her side of the territory, mainly sweet honey and a few other vegetables. While she was there she looked around for a moment.

"Where's your lover?"
"Bath."
"Oh...not joining?"
Terra shook her head while stirring in some honey to her tea.
"Too soon."

Sasha looked at Terra with a smirk. Too soon? It's not like Terra was asking to have sex with her. It was just a bath. Sighing a bit she rubbed her forehead.
"Right...cause seeing someone naked is oh so rare here."
She said in a noticeably sarcastic tone before walking into the living area and making herself comfortable while she waited for the prude to come out. Knowing that her presence made Kiha jealous was actually amusing to her and if she was that uptight about a bath, then she was really curious to see what would make her flip her shit. How small would it be?
 
Kiha looked...confused. And a little hurt. Was wearing clothes too much? It wasn’t that she was trying to be difficult. But for a girl who had only just had her first kiss the day before and had just gotten used to hand holding, nakedness was a big step. She wanted to get used to touching first. And she was still...coming to terms with the fact that her heart thumped and her stomach churned with butterflies over a girl. She had never known.

She left to bathe, her ears down. They had been doing so well. As she cleaned herself she thought up a way to apologize to Terra, wanting to fix it. She cleaned up well then towel dried with a warm knitted one made from what look like leaves. It was soft enough against her furs and when she was dry enough she quickly dressed, being much quicker than usual to get back to Terra. She hadn’t brought her brushes with her but she hadn’t cleaned her hair either as she had done so this morning and Terra had brushed it so well. Her tails were fluffy and dry, and thankfully Terra’s soap kept them untangled.

Stepping down the hall she could hear voices and paused. Sasha was hear. Her cheeks turned dark red as they spoke about her choice to not be naked. It...it wasn’t like that. No one had seen Kiha naked...no one. Sasha’s sarcastic tone irked her but she also felt disappointed that she had upset Terra.

Steeling herself she came out with a smile on her face, acting as she heard nothing and moved to Terra. She shot a look to where Sasha was sitting but ignored her. She slipped a hand around her waist as Terra did to her so often and pressed a finger against her snout, pushing it to face her so she could kiss her. It wasnt perfect and it was sloppy still but she threw her passion in there, her eyes closed. When she pulled back she stroked Terra’s snout with her finger.

“Im sorry. My people...it’s a big step. You are my first.”
 
Terra looked over while she was stirring her tea and spotted Kiha. Smiling as she saw her then looked a bit shocked but still accepted the gesture. Listening to her Terra nodded and kissed Kiha's forehead. She didn't understand her issue with her skin but at the same time, she knew that she needed to wait. For her people, their skin was what they were born in, nothing would change it and if they couldn't accept it, then what was the point. Being nude was normal. Sasha smiled and shook her head.
"I found a way to defeat your kingdom. Strip everyone naked. No one would know what to do. It'd be the easiest victory in history and not a single soul lost."
She said as she giggled and spread her arms back behind her head as she crossed her legs.

Terra did find that a bit funny, causing her to smile a bit. Warrior's who would panic over a loss of clothing were weak in her eyes. Just like that dead male, whining like a hatchling because he got mud on his boots. It was pathetic really, to hold that much value in something that you took off at the end of the day. Your skin was never coming off without the use of a blade, or teeth in his case. Sasha smirked as she saw Terra was deep in though, then Sasha whispered something that Terra wouldn't pick up on but Kiha's ears would.

"Careful fox. Start showing too much of an attachment to your clothing and you'll bring up some unpleasant thoughts. I do believe your dear Captain showed a very big attachment to his clothing and other material things...worst case scenario...Terra thinks that you don't trust her to see you how you were born. Clothing holds no meaning to them remember? Terra gets looked at very strangely now that she's wearing clothing. Did you know that? Being the poster girl for all kinds of mean comments by her peers for 'conforming' to the alien's wishes. That and clothing distorts her camouflage abilities. Her scales blend into her environment but it'll be real easy to spot her if she's wearing clothing."

Sasha was being mean yes, but pointing out the obvious was needed. Terra didn't have a good introduction to just how much Kiha's people valued clothing thanks to that male and Kiha's initial responses to Terra. Now that Terra was wearing clothing, blending in was not an option. Staying and fighting was the only thing she could do.
 
Kiha was watching Terra in thought, wondering if she had fixed things. Then Sasha commented and Terra finally smiled and Kiha knew she had lost. Her tails dropped low and she blushed deeply. She doubted her father or his warriors would care if they were stripped nude. Many of them refused to mate so their appearance mattered little to be seen. But Kiha wanted only her real skin, her private parts to be seen by whoever she chose to spend her life with. And she didn’t know how far this lover thing went. Kyara hadn’t specified. Could Terra back out?

Sasha clearly thought so. Her ears caught her words and her face dropped instantly, paling too. Why was Terra wearing clothing in the clan? Kiha had never asked of it. And now she was being compared to Sebastian.

Had she made a horrible mistake? What...what was she doing here? Who was she kidding? Looking at Terra she hadn’t realized her presence was affecting the native woman till now. She looked towards Sasha and her eyes were watering but she held back tears. Sasha knee what she was doing. Forcing Kiha to make a choice to make Terra comfortable...and give Sasha something to stare at again.

Swallowing dryly she looked to the tea Terra was making, acting as normal as she could, “I’m not comfortable with no cloth, but Terra...you don’t have to wear it.”

She glanced at Terra under her hair to gauge her reaction and added, “Feel comfortable please. Don’t need cloth.”
 
Terra looked a little confused at Kiha's sudden burst about the clothing then looked at the smug smile on Sasha's lips. Narrowing her eyes she spoke in her native tongue and yelled at Sasha for being rude while Sasha just shrugged, speaking in a language that Kiha could understand.
"I'm being honest. She'll get no where if you continue kissing her ass. Alpha's don't kiss ass Terra, everything in life has a consequence and your little princess needs to learn that...quickly. While yes, you're patient with her and you're willing to meet half way, doesn't mean everyone is. If this keeps up, your people are going to loose trust in you and wonder who's side you're on."

Sasha then stood up as she walked out and waved her hand as if dismissing any further talk. Kyara came in right after and looked confused as Terra was venting to her but Kyara sighed.
"In a way, she is right my dear. While it's nice that you're wearing clothing for her comfort, it's putting you in potential risk of both scrutiny from your own and danger when trying to blend in."

Terra just sighed as she walked into her room to remove the clothing. While she was doing that, Kyara looked at Kiha.
"Every couple makes sacrifices small and large for their lover. Terra's started out small, it was mainly because you never looked at her when she was naked. With clothing, you seemed to be more open to being around her. Do you see why she started wearing clothing now?"
