6 Unicorn Street; Friday Night [07/19].

It felt a little strange acknowledging it, what with the way the summer had been going as a whole, but Amaya was actually having herself a really good week, even with being made a target in Diaz's class today. Maybe even because of it, because she knew she'd earned it, really, and she was still sort of riding the high of that competitive spirit from the trebuchet competition on Wednesday, she'd gotten the greenhouse finished this week. She'd had a chance to enjoy a few ales down at Caritas, too, which felt like something she couldn't quite get to as regularly as she used to, so that was nice.

And, if she just so happened to have found a certain mood there at the bottom of one of those mugs, well, she had a solution for that on hand as well. No fuss, no mushy stuff, just a simple solution and a good use of the pleasant buzz she'd built up. Built up enough to the point where she'd almost sent off her message to the wrong person just out of old habits (between the doors and the trebuchets and the balls being thrown at her, who could blame her, really?), but she caught herself and redirected things so they went to the right place.

Or, at the very least, the place more likely to yeild result at the moment.

Good night for a movie.

No, Amaya didn't even own a TV.

That was kind of the point.

Seivarden knew Amaya didn't have a TV. As a cat she had explored her home quite thoroughly, after all. Good night for a movie had to mean something else, and it wasn't that hard to figure out what.

And Seivarden found it was a perfect idea, now that the island was no longer throwing torments at them, and a bit of relaxing fun was a great suggestion.

Striking a balance between showing up quickly and waiting a bit so as to not seem desperate, she eventually knocked at Amaya's door.

"Amaya."

Seivarden smiled as she stepped inside.

"Thank you for the invitation."

Sometimes subtlety was overrated.

"Tea? Could be a good idea not to run out of rum."

She didn't think she'd be able to get away with skipping a note tomorrow even if she wouldn't be there to read it

Not that tea was strictly speaking necessary, but Seivarden had at least some kind of propriety.

Amaya had a point.

Seivarden made a gesture with her hand and said: "We can have tea later, of course."

That was usually rather nice, after all.

"I look forward to seeing it," Seivarden said, happy to play along with the lack of subtlety. Amaya's talent for if was actually something she liked about her. She, on the other hand, was a lot less awkward, and actually enjoyed this part too.

"So," she said, looking amused while resting her gaze a little longer than necessary on Amaya. "Lead the way."

It would have been easy if Seivarden wasn't actually blocking that way.

"I thought you were good at removing obstacles."

Seivarden knew Amaya far too well to expect any kind of sauntering, and she preferred her that way. She did know her to be practical though, and, well, that could be interesting too.

Seivarden laughed and didn't make much resistance. When they reached the bedroom door, she said over her shoulder:

"You know, gentle is sometimes overrated."

She added: "But let's leave the Crumbler out of this."

This was a lot of talking, wasn't it? Seivarden turned around.

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-20 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
This was, of course, Seivarden's intention. She made the most of that kiss, knowing by now that foreplay wasn't Amaya's thing. Seivarden generally preferred it, but it wasn't like she wasn't used to making the most of brief moments between shifts, and anyway, today...

She pushed Amaya towards the bed, tugging at one of her gloves, which was awfully tight today.

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-20 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Since they weren't doing foreplay, straight for the gloves was the obvious choice. Only, it didn't work.

"Yes." There was a bit of frustration in Seivarden's voice, because she was definitely good at taking off gloves, but Amaya's was stuck on her hands.

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-20 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Seivarden had dealt with a lot worse, and no doubt she would manage to get this gloves off sooner or later. Instead she tried to push Amaya on to the bed and straddle her, and if she couldn't get Amaya's gloves off, she could at least get rid of her own.

Seivarden would prefer not to have to have her clothes cut up, but luckily the jacket came off, and she continued with pulling off her own gloves, in a way that wouldn't be too extravagant to be a turn off to Amaya.

Only they wouldn't come off.

"Fuck."
1000yearstoolate: (Default)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-20 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, Amaya, Seivarden could take her gloves off in an excruciatingly slow and sexy way that would have you bored halfway through.

Normally.

Still, a kiss was a good idea at this point, however, the attempt failed and Seivarden nearly knocked Amaya's teeth out with her forehead.
1000yearstoolate: (slightly upwards)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-21 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
That was embarrassing, and not something that happened often, at least not while sober and with this much space.

"Sorry. I'm fine."

She frowned a little while leaning in to kiss Amaya in a way that might perhaps make up for that accident, and at the same time she began tugging at Amaya's clothes, in the way one did when there were only a brief moment between shifts that needed to be made the most of.

Not that they were in that situation, but things weren't going so well thus far.

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-21 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
Seivarden had been kissing Amaya's neck while Amaya struggled with the laces, and as not even someone with strong arms like Amaya's could tear up that knot, she proceeded to try and pull up Amaya's skirt and slip her hands under it. Her gloved hands.

Oh, and there were more kisses on Amaya's neck, and down towards her cleavage.

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-21 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Sometimes it was. Seivarden hadn't been thinking clearly enough to yet to start blaming the island - apart from just generally blaming it for everything that went wrong - and at least now they were getting somewhere, and along with those kisses even gloved hands could be useful, and she did her best trying to give an example, knowing slow wasn't really Amaya's thing.
1000yearstoolate: (slightly upwards)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-22 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Seivardens response was a sequence of colourful Radchaai curses, until she realized that Amaya had actually landed on something.

"Are you ok?" she asked, rolling to one side.

She closed her eyes. "This has to be the island."

Things had never gone this badly, not even when she had been a fumbling teenager.

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-22 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah," Seivarden said. "This is fucking..." She made a gesture with her still gloved hand. "Well, no, it's not, but you know what I mean."

She looked at Amaya. "What do you want to do?"

Seivarden definitely needed tea.
1000yearstoolate: (Default)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-22 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Tea."

She so appreciated that Amaya understood that was the obvious choice. Unaware that the alternative was being booted in favour of the forge, and that the reason that didn't happen was because Amaya considered her sensitive, she added:

"At least you've got good tea."

That was a compliment. She leaned in to try and give Amaya a kiss before giving up on this.
1000yearstoolate: (leaning against wall)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-23 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Seivarden considered herself a good kisser, and she did make an effort, so it wasn't just any kiss, Amaya.

Following Amaya's example, she slowly got to her feet too, then brushed her sleeves.

"Of course. It's not many others on this island that could compare with you in that department." Let's keep not talking about what this was about.
1000yearstoolate: (Default)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-24 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
Amaya could feel safe, Seivarden was actually talking about tea. She knew better than to be too explicit on other things.

She wrinkled her nose a little. "I'm sure there's nothing wrong with your coffee, apart from it being coffee."
1000yearstoolate: (leaning against wall)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-24 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Seivarden let out a sigh. "I hate this fucking island."

She raised her own hand, pulled at the tips of her glove, and sure enough, it came halfway off.

"So..."

She looked at Amaya.
1000yearstoolate: (Default)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-25 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Seivarden couldn't help looking at those wiggled fingers, but then made an effort to shift her gaze to Amaya's face while pulling off her own glove completely. She sighed.

"I'm guessing you have sharp things in the kitchen."

Although, considering Amaya, she might have sharp things anywhere, couldn't she?

Crossing the distance between them, Seivarden reached her bare hand out towards Amaya's.

[In my head I had replied to this.]
1000yearstoolate: (Default)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-25 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"We wouldn't want to break your table," Seivarden said, not sounding that concerned either. She took a step closer, running her thumb from Amaya's palm to further up her arm while leaning in to kiss her neck.

It probably was a bad idea to test the island like this, but they could both be stubborn, couldn't they?
1000yearstoolate: (open shirt)

[personal profile] 1000yearstoolate 2019-07-29 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Seivarden continued kissing Amaya along her neck, carefully nudging her blouse over her shoulder, as if the island wouldn't notice if she did it slowly.

Maybe slowly was the thing here? Maybe Amaya just had to be patient.
