(I kind of like the vagueness of just knowing that despite Spectra looking fairly normal on the outside, she's doing things we can't even imagine with Thava on the inside, so, gonna leave it that way.<img alt=":)" src="./images/smilies/smile.gif" title="Smile"/>)<br/><br/>Sin had used some spare rope and thread to secure the fronds to their shelter, cometing the makeshift shades for the walls. This took a bit of time since it was tedious work. She imagined Spectra, with her weird shadow abilities could have probably done it in a matter of seconds and yet, every time she thought to check she would just see the succubus rubbing and cradling her swollen belly, making playful moaning and cooing noises and whispering to whoever or what ever was in there.<br/><br/>When she was finally done, she approached the succubus.<br/>"Well, glad to see you've returned to normal so quickly." She said, her arms at her hips, her posture showing her annoyance.<br/><br/>Spectra simply smiled back. "I know you're trying to be intimidating and look annoyed, but I simply can't focus on anything but your bare chest." She said with a mischievous smirk.<br/><br/>Sin sighed loudly.<br/><br/>"Everyone deals with stress in their own way captain. For many intimacy is an incredibly effective method of healing. It relieves stress, releases hormones that increase brain function, just generally makes you feel better, like a new person."<br/><br/>"Especially if you're a nymphomaniac."<br/><br/>"Hehe, well, of course. But my interests are obvious, I wear them on my sleeves, or lack there of. Even you are recovering in your way. You've literally given the shirt off your back to help your crew. A beautifully classic gesture, if not a little obvious. You're feeling guilty about your selfishness and the consequences it caused. Believe me, I understand. I can be quite selfish myself. Of course those God's are the most selfish of them all, but that also means they transfer their own guilt or disappointment of their shortcomings on to the mortals around them... Of course, you know that, you've all experienced it now. Heh... But don't tell anyone I said that. They don't like having their flaws pointed out either." Spectra snickered playfully.<br/><br/>Continuing her playful streak she motioned for Sin to come closer. "Come, come, cuddle with us!" She urged.<br/><br/>Sin approached, leaning down and placing a hand on the swollen belly, feeling many various movements happening within.<br/><br/>"Thava's in there. The Hanaryuu appreciate intimacy on a different level. It's almost like a physical need. Like a form of starvation if they don't get it often enough. Of course I feed on it too so, we'll both be quite full before long." She smiled. "You should relax too captain, you've had a hard day. ... You could join her..." She suggested.<br/><br/>Sin sat up, reluctantly shaking her head. "She... Wouldn't want anything to do with me right now."<br/><br/>"Oh, I wouldn't say that. She simply doesn't know you as I do. In all fairness captain, you keep yourself a mystery. It wouldn't hurt to expand the number of people you've allowed yourself to be vulnerable with. Well... Let's ask her..."<br/><br/>She spoke again, though this time it was easily audible both inside, and out. "Thava, precious one, would you like a partner? I know you're a bit upset with the captain right now but, perhaps a little bonding time could help?" She asked to see if Thava would be willing to share some of this intimacy with Sin as well.
