Rocks All Day, Dance All Nightside (Lexa)

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite cringed as whatever was in the water brushed through his tails.​

​

"Okay, no, that is not one of my tails."​

​

He grabbed Lexa out of the water and vaulted up over the side of the pool as something like a giant eel reared its head up. Without taking his arm from around Lexa, he set his right hand on fire.​

​

"Oh, good... Lunch."​

Lexa grimaced at the eel. She didn't quite understand why Malachite could eat something that slimy. Nevertheless, she too ignited her hand and chucked a fireball at it.​

​

"You want to eat that? I can't believe I just kissed that mouth!"​

​

She joked.​

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite raised an eyebrow, smirked, and pulled Lexa into a kiss as he snapped his fingers to send a spark flying towards the fish. It collided with her fireball and made a small explosion, blowing the eel's head off. The blonde fox grinned, with all his fangs showing.​

​

"Well, you don't mind suspending disbelief, do you?"​

​

[Zayani Brin]

"Do what you've gotta do. Just don't expect me to watch."​

​

Lexa smirked, getting down from Malachite's cradle-like grasp. She turned her back to him while she waited. A breeze came through, starting to dry her a bit. She barely even felt it. In fact, she'd almost entirely forgotten that she was still in her underwear.​

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite grinned as he basically dismantled the eel into its component parts. The spine came out with a very enjoyable ripping noise, and the blonde fox tossed it to the side. He'd have fun with that later. He took a small hunting knife out of his jacket as he pulled his boots back on and cut the meaty part of the eel into a bunch of large slices to cook easier. He burned the grease and oil off his hands, and then walked over to Lexa and squeezed her shoulder.​

​

"Weeeeeell, then. Hungry?"​

​

[member="Lexa Kimene"]​

 

[Zayani Brin]

It smelled pretty good, despite knowing what it was ten minutes ago. Lexa turned around and looked at the eel jerky.​

​

"I guess so. I just hope it doesn't taste as slimy as it was to begin with."​

​

She took a piece and started nibbling on it. Hm. Not too bad, actually.​

​

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite smiled as he watched Lexa eat for a moment, and then walked up and put his jacket around her. He figured it'd help her dry off a bit. Of course, then, he didn't actually want to move his arms off from around her shoulders, though.​

​

"Well, I suppose that means you do like it."​

​

[member="Lexa Kimene"]​

 

[Zayani Brin]

Lexa looked up at Machi.​

​

"It's alright. It's not the best food in the Galaxy, but it's better than I expected."​

​

She held up the rest of her piece for him to eat.​

[Malachite the Shoki]

Instead of taking the piece of jerky like most people would've (i.e. using their hands), Malachite elected to take the jerky with his teeth as he gently squeezed Lexa. In a couple of bites, the piece of jerky was gone. The blonde fox stuck out his tongue in disgust. And then felt slightly happier when he used his stuck-out tongue to tickle her cheek.​

​

"I'm never eating eel again. Or, not without something other than salt for flavoring."​

​

[member="Lexa Kimene"]​

 

[Zayani Brin]

Lexa broke out into laughter as Machi licked her cheek.​

​

"Stop that! I thought you were a fox-man!" ​

​

She joked, lightly taking his tongue between her index finger and her thumb. She was surprised how normal she felt, considering they'd confessed their feelings to each other and kissed just a little while ago.​

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite gestured with his tails, letting them heat up and dry off as he did so. He gently took Lexa's hand off his tongue and squeezed it.​

​

"Well, foxes do lick. And I don't think you mind it."​

​

His tails, which were mostly warm and dry now, wrapped around her again as he pulled her into a hug. It felt strange to him that this hug didn't feel any different than the ones he'd given Lexa a week ago. Even though he was holding her hand this time, he felt just as comfortable with it as he had before, when the contact had been simply intended as contact.​

[Zayani Brin]

Lexa laughed some more as Machi pulled her into a hug.​

​

"So... I guess we can be more than friends now, huh?"​

​

It was nice to think of him as a "boyfriend". Even though that term made her feel more like a teenager.​

​

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite grinned back and kissed Lexa's nose.​

​

"To be fair, you already placed yourself above my other 'friends' just by not getting freaked out by me."​

​

So, he had a girlfriend now. And he made a very silent vow to probably never say that out loud. The word sounded weird.​

​

[member="Lexa Kimene"]​

 

[Zayani Brin]

"Okay. Good. So.... Uh.... Now what?"​

​

Lexa asked honestly. They killed the eel. So maybe they could keep swimming? Or they could always keep exploring. there was bound to be something just as interesting in a glowing jungle.​

​

[member="Malachite the Shoki"]​

 

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite gently, almost flirtatiously, put his mouth to Lexa's ear and lowered his voice to a whisper.​

​

"Well, first off, you could put your pants back on."​

​

He pulled away a little bit as he stuck his tongue out at her and wagged his tails. He grabbed his shirt off the ground and slung it over his shoulder.​

​

"I'm keeping my shirt off, though, and you can have my jacket. Too damn hot here."​

​

[member="Lexa Kimene"]​

 

[Zayani Brin]

Lexa had to keep herself from shuddering as she felt Malachite's breath on her ear. She then flicked his nose as he backed away.​

​

"I might just keep my shirt off, too. I like it hot..."​

​

She winked at him as she went to get her clothes.​

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite silently grinned as Lexa walked away to go get her clothes. Besides the fact that she liked him, and he liked her, she was just... wow. Not even that she was attractive. He'd met plenty of attractive women before. But she was amazing. He felt himself blushing a little bit as he thought about Lexa, even though she wasn't even that far away.​

​

[member="Lexa Kimene"]​

 

[Zayani Brin]

Lexa could sense a warm feeling from Machi as she slipped her clothes on. It was enough to make her smile wider. He was definitely something else, alright. She was happy to have found him.​

​

She came back a few minutes later, nibbling on another piece of eel jerky.​

​

"Where to, Machi?"​

​

[member="Malachite the Shoki"]​

 

[Malachite the Shoki]

Malachite smiled as he looked at Lexa, teasingly biting the other end of the piece of jerky sticking out of her mouth. He gently picked her up and held onto her like he was carrying a kid on his arm.​

​

"Weeeeeell, I'm going to check out some more of this lovely glowing forest. You can ride on my back. Machi Express."​
