[ she takes the opportunity of the gentle nibble to weave a hand into kaguya's hair and kiss back, hard and fierce, with the scrape of teeth and press of tongue at her mouth. a good, sweet girl, but one with hungers—that's good.
her nails, grown clawlike, rake just hard enough to leave light lines of red into the V of Kaguya's kimono collar. ]
[Her teeth scrape lightly against the exposed skin of her thigh, gently nibbling. Her face is a mask of concentration, entranced, intoxicated by the allure of the woman before her, broken only by a couple nervous glances upward at her face, searching for approval and validation- even as she begins kissing another trail back onto the outer part of her leg.]
[ paloma wears a doting, but controlled sort of expression; pleased, but not ecstatic. like a teacher pleased at a student's answer to a question, perhaps. her hand twists through sekhmet's hair in such a way that it tugs, lightly. ]
[She knows of course that this is a game, and she's being teased and cajoled to submit herself and the validation is being spoonfed to her just enough to keep her going, but she likes it, she likes the pursuit and the sense of reward that comes from that guarded approval. The tug on her hair makes her shiver, makes her want this mysterious woman more. So much for being reserved.]
[Sekhmet whimpers and moans at that tug and it sends a forbidden thrill of pleasure through her. She's still patching things back up with Shrike and she still has the guilt of how things got messy with Kohime, in part because of this intense lust that can take her over, a terrible and alluring master. The lust is like the violence that wells up inside her, another intoxicating pleasure, but it's so much easier to surrender to. It feels so good to be treated like this and be the center of somebody's attention.
And of course she hadn't meant being good in just this context, Sekhmet meant many different, sometimes contradicting things that she was trying so hard to do, but right now everything is blurring in a heat haze.
She trails kisses back down Paloma's leg, licking the smooth golden skin every so often. She's so beautiful that she must kneel down and offer devotion. Her hand on her chin, that little smile, will suffer no disobedience, and she surrenders to it willingly.]
Perhaps. But it isn't necessarily new, either. In other countries, perhaps.. but in my country there have been men in makeup for much of our history. Not every day of course, but for performances. Historically, men would even have to play female roles in theater due to laws against female actors. Women and men both can act now, but that doesn't stop us needing makeup for the stage.
[ some people want to be tormented and, listen, it would be irresponsible of her not to help. also, this is fun.
she flicks her leg back to sit up in an imperious pose, hands folded in her lap. it wouldn't be her if she didn't put an impromptu socratic-style philosophy lecture in here. ]
[She whines in disappointment when Paloma takes away her lovely leg. She thought this "good" stuff was a kinky thing! She'll be a "good girl," but she's too horny to philosophize!]
...although, I think any species with the capacity for higher thought probably ought to be, if I'm really being honest. Not for nothing did I have to trick my own people into doing what was best for them.
