<em>"Knightly armored types and fur-clad barbarians, huh?  Well, it's always nice to see a girl who knows what she likes."</em>The cat commented, pushing her head up and into Aria's hand as a way of asking for more petting.<em>"I'm sure some of our men would be more than happy to fulfill either of your fantasies.  Of course, given that we have a number of Sune's paladins among our regular clientele, you might try making some money, rather than spending it...  Er, not that I'm suggesting a change in professions for you, or anything like that.  Just think of it as an option, another way to take your entertainment."</em><br/><br/>"Well, satisfying one's curiosity is one of the more unusual varieties of pleasure I've ever had the opportunity to come across."  Sherry noted, not leaning in towards the tiefling as she leaned in closer to the silver-haired woman, but also not pulling away, either.  "Exploration, discovery, even just the process of learning something new...  It's a rather simple pleasure, but it can bring a great deal of enjoyment in its own right.  Of course, I suppose you already know what I'm talking about, since you seem to have seen quite a bit of what this plane has to offer."<br/><br/>"Though, from the scents coming off of you, it's fairly clear you've the desire to experience even more...  Am I right?"  Something had changed.  The cat's voice was no longer a purely mental one, now it was speaking aloud, clearly making itself heard with one's ears.  The weight of the cat in the tiefling's lap also suddenly felt heavier, and a quick glance would quickly reveal why: The cat was no longer a cat.  "Ah, by the way, though you've met my lovely assistant Sherry, I don't believe I've introduced myself, yet.  Greeting, Miss Aria, I am Pumiro.  Much like her, I am a servant of Sharess, though unlike her, my expertise doesn't lay in matters Divine.  It's a<em>pleasure</em>to make your acquaintance."<br/><br/>In terms of height and weight, Pumiro had jumped from being the size of a housecat to being the size of a halfling.  She had made herself quite comfortable in Aria's lap, sitting sideways across it with her legs dangling down, and to help keep her balance, she was resting both of her hands on one of the tiefling's legs, specifically the one where the the slit in her dress had caused the fabric to pull away from the skin.  Those hands were thus touching bare flesh, and one was placed quite high up her thigh...<br/><br/>Pumiro's skin was rather dark, which contrasted in interesting ways with her hair.  Patterned similarly to her fur, the short-cut hair was orange with white striped running through it, while her eyes were the same light blue they had been in cat form, as well.  Her ears were pointed, one of the main things distinguishing her from being clearly mistaken for a halfling altogether, and the gear that she had been wearing as a cat had changed shape to match her new form, the magical tunic that she had been wearing as a cat shaped now to be the only thing maintaining her modesty.  It was, perhaps, a few sizes too big for her, but with the appropriately-sized belt circling her waist it managed to hug her form reasonably well, and the neckline didn't show off too much skin, overall.<br/><br/>"Sorry for the sudden, surprising change in form, by the way."  The smaller woman apologized.  "It's just that my nose is a lot more sensitive in cat form, and the scent of arousal's been coming off of you in waves since you learned that my darling little Sherry works in a brothel."<br/><br/>"Er...  Mistress, that seems a little..."  Sherry was blushing at that comment, her cheeks changing color to resemble cherries.<br/><br/>"Rude?  Ah, yes, you're right.  My apologies.  You can't tell me you never noticed her flirting with you, though."  And the silver-haired woman's blush deepened.
