Thread: The Scarlet Crossing (DeliciousLust & darjeeling)

Perhaps it would have amused Mariko to know that Aurelias anxious movements might have been attributed by those three cup of coffee she had prior going to the Scarlet Crossing. Aurelia seemed like somebody who did everything specific sets and moderation, never quite deviating from her routine or programmed behaviour. It was perhaps all the more fascinating that this supposed methodical introvert seemed too fascinated by her person, character, race or even hobbies. She knew all for certain that it was Hunter who was responsible for bringing her to the wretched den of lusts and debauchery. He was only the gateway in the equation, all of the following occasions was completely her doing. Mariko didn't have direct control over her, but seemed like something that was meant to be by happenstance. It was as if the tide had brought Aurelia before her again and again. Despite meeting in public, she didnt see their little occasion together as any different. There might have been more propriety required from the monster, maybe . The fates might have a strange way of pulling the two together and Mariko was rather intent to see how far she could push the fates to get what she wanted from the girl. If it was meant to be, right? Mm. She merely said regarding the bird, almost dismissing the idea already from her thoughts as she brushed a length of sleek black hair behind her ear. The peacocks blue feathers and array of colours seem hardly complimentary on her green skin, when she thought twice on it. It would hardly suit her to have that creature permanently marked on her. Having a bird on a reptilian bakemono seemed almost out of place. Then again, all she needed to do was look at the elaborate tattoo on her chest to know that she wasnt exactly the wisest when it came to subjecting her body to particular fancies. How that might double in meaning when it came to sex with stranger completely slipped her sense of irony on the matter. She was hardly shy with her choice of words, knowing full well what she was and did to take such verbiage as a casual part of her vocabulary. Needless to say, she didnt spend too much time with proper company who found such words offending. High class settings were never truly her thing. One hand went between her thighs and slowly traced a claw over where the seams of her tight jeans met, roughly around the same area where her treasured womanhood might have been found. It wasnt done in suggestion, merely as a muse as she thought back to the previous occasion she had such a thing done. Nah, it wasnt too painful. If anything, I tend to heal pretty fast when it comes to piercings. I think it would rather hot if anything. Then again, all genital piercings have something hot about them. Maybe it goes back to that time where I fucked a guy that was like pierced all along his...well, you get the idea. She stopped short of rambling on, thinking that Aurelia fully got the idea without her going into detail, and Mariko could have gone more into detail. It would be lousy if the girl combusted into fire. Lets just forget about birds, said the reptilian woman, ready to move on from the matter. The tears that seemed to threaten to show in Aurelias eyes easily caught her attention but she didnt pester her too much about it. She just might have an issue with birds and Mariko found the notion too silly to dwell on by now. Yes, actually more silly than having a tattoo of her ex above your breasts. On the upside, it still looked badass and very few people caught on to its true meaning. She wasnt sure if she could say the same thing about a peacock...or even a woodpecker for that matter. For now, there was coffee to be had and Mariko was more than glad to be taken to somewhere to talk in relative peace, away from these stares that seem to be directed at her. Aurelias next quite almost seemed to come out as a sledge hammer, even if it was potential badly constructed and badly strung together to make something that seemed almost most offensive. She slowly turned to look at her, casting a look of disbelief through her glasses that seemed to almost give her pause. Then again, she must have been asked that question at least once a year, and she made her quota now. When most people asked that question, they actually meant human meat , as if bakemono still publicly did such a thing. It was quaint, but somewhat offensive at the same time. She chortled out load when she quickly corrected herself, not quite sure if it was a last minute save or her original intention among the fumbling of words she seemed to spew out without control around her presence. Disregarding that moment, she answered her question casually. I eat beef, chicken, pork and the like well enough. Any sort of meat is fine with me actually. Eating it raw wont get me sick, but I rather eat it cooked. Especially considering theres all the little added flavours you get out of it. Im not much of a cook though, but I appreciate cooking. When they arrived to their destination, Mariko settled down to the spot across from her. Her tail lazily rested through the hole of the plastic chair, going completely still in the first while since their little date together. For a moment, it almost seemed like Aurelia was ready to burst out into tears from her actions. Burying your face in your hands could only mean so few number of things. It annoyed Mariko, but concerned her at the same time. She would hate it if Aurelia was really mustering herself to spend time with Mariko as if it was some debt she owned. Now that she thought about it, it could have been a distinctive possibility. When the girl finally found the strength to speak again, it did assuage her concerns somewhat. Her attention was fully on Aurelia, rather than on the shops and restaurants around them. Ah. I get it then. Well, I am talking and I am what I am, so you dont have to worry about that at all. That is, if you dont like what I am, then we might have issue. I'm not too hungry right now, but I could still go for that coffee with extra cream and sugar. Thatll hit a good spot in my body without getting me naked.
