You're not sure whether you just survived the most erotic wrestling match you've ever had, or whether it was simply the wildest, roughest lovemaking you could have hoped for, but by the end of it, you're beaten, bruised, wholly spent, and somehow dirtier than you were when you first got in the tub.
The two of you made an absolute mess of the area around the tub--in fact, the tub is only three-quarters full of hot water now. The rest of it is splashed all around, and the bottles of shampoo and soap lie scattered about.
Kelda reclines next to you, a content smile on her face. "That was fun."
He lay next to her in the tub wide eyed and almost giggling, a very broad smile upon his face. His back and neck felt a little sore, and he was sure he would really feel them in a while but for now he lay there contently arm half around Kelda trying to catch his breath. That was definitely not like how the stories he had read had portrayed it at all...
He had been embaressed the first time someone thumped on the wall and yelled for them to quiet down, if anything Kelda seemed to get louder from that point on, almost like she was making a point for everyone to know what they were doing in the tub. Now quiet reigned and he was content in the half filled tub wondering if he still was beat red.He sat up a little and half leaned out of the tub, the claw makes Kelda purposely racked across his back obvious as he found the bar of soap and with a grin began to suds first himself up... then his bath partner.

Kelda purrs as you soap her up. She's quite content to let you run the bar of soap along her body, anywhere you please. Once you've finished scrubbing her (and listening to her pleasurable growls as you lather up her more intimate places), she leans out of the tub and picks up a stray washcloth.
"Hold still. Let Kelda get your back." She starts showing your scratched and bruised body the same care you've shown for hers--rubbing your old scars and aches with a surprising amount of tenderness.
Once your clothes and personal effects are stowed away, Ameiko carefully leads the way into the bathing area. "Watch your step--floor's pretty slippery here."
She passes the communal bathing pool up in favour of one of the curtained alcoves nearby; it looks like she deliberately chose an alcove on the opposite wall of Kavell & Kelda's bathing room. Beyond the alcove's beige curtain is a square stone tub set in the floor, filled up with steaming hot water and with bottles of various shampoos, oils, washcloths and bars of soap sitting nearby.
"I'll go first, I think." Ameiko says after you step into the room with her, stripping out of her robe and sliding her smallclothes off of her body. Now quite naked, she takes her time stepping into the hot water. She winces, but doesn't pull herself out, instead sitting down in the tub and pointedly watching you.
"Yeah, it's hot alright." She chuckles, her skin starting to turn a bit red from the heat.
It took a few seconds longer than it should have for Valeria to realise she was staring as Ameiko climbed into the tub.
"Yeah, you look i- I-I mean; it looks like it," she stammered, before finally bracing herself for the moment and removing her robe.
To her credit, the button above the tail-hole on her smallclothes didn't snag and she quickly got in under the water. While she could feel that it was rather hot, it wasn't enough for her to really feel it beyond simple acknowledgement. Sinking into the water did feel nice on its own, regardless - she'd been relying on her magic to keep clean for too long.
Ameiko snickers in response, but upon noticing your discomfort while disrobing, she looks down into the water out of courtesy.
Once she feels you sitting next to her, she looks up at you and gives you a playful smile before dunking her head in the water. She shakes her head after she comes up, spraying water every which way before relaxing against the wall of the tub.
"Aaaahhhh..." You feel her arm slip around you as she leans back. "...I missed this so much you have no idea." She turns and looks you in the eyes again, her face relaxed and content.
"Wish I could enjoy it as much as you seem to," she admitted, trying not to get distracted by the situation, by Ameiko's arm around her, "haven't really felt the cold so I'm not getting anything from the heat, either."
"In that case..." Ameiko lifts herself up and plucks a couple of bottles from nearby. She pops one open and carefully empties some of the bottle's contents into her hand--it's an oil that smells of lavender mixed with soap.
She rubs her hands together and begins to lather up your back. The oil feels quite slick and clean against your skin, and the way Ameiko's fingers massage it into your back does much to enhance the pleasurable feelings running along your spine. "...let me get this for you. You want to soap up the rest of yourself?"
She couldn't help but sigh at the feel of Ameiko's fingers on her back. It was certainly helping her relax more than the heat was.
One drawback of her tiefling nature was that occasionally her tail had a mind of its own if the rest of her was distracted enough. As she took the bottle of soap for herself, her tail shifted around behind her, brushing against Ameiko's leg.
Your tail brushing against her leg elicits a curious "Ooh..." from Ameiko. It doesn't sound like she's put off by it--if anything, she seemed... quite appreciative of it.
She doesn't let it distract her from the job at hand. Once your back is good and lathered, she fetches a washcloth from the side of the tub and starts tenderly rubbing and stroking it, working from the back of your neck and slowly... even sensually, down your back. She's taking her time doing this, not missing an inch.
...at one point, you feel her ministrations slowing down. It feels more like she's tenderly caressing your back than trying to wash it. Did she get distracted?
Soaping herself up took longer than it should have, as Valeria kept slowing down to enjoy the feel of Ameiko's hands on her back. Which actually worked out alright considering Ameiko herself seemed to be starting to slow down.
"Something wrong?" she asked, wondering why she'd slowed (but glad that she hadn't just stopped outright).
"Huh?" Ameiko shakes herself as you ask your question. "Oh--no, no, nothing's wrong." Her cheeks turn a bit redder and she gives you a sheepish chuckle. "Just a bit distracted by how smooth your skin is."
She rinses off your back with a few handfuls of hot water before turning her back to you. "Once you're done, could you do my back, please?"
She couldn't help but smile at the compliment. "Good heritage, I guess. Mum, I mean; not... this," she tapped one of her horns to show what she meant. Sadly; beings like her and Kavell couldn't just casually throw out that word without people thinking they meant the inter-planar stuff (particularly tieflings, considering that just about every attractive tiefling woman in fiction seemed to be part-succubus - that had made puberty 'interesting').
When she asked Valeria to do her back, she, fumbled the bottle a bit before just nodding in agreement. She started off a little clumsily but quickly calmed herself down and concentrated on what she was doing. Her skill as a masseuse showing itself as well as her hands explored Ameiko's back. She wasn't trying to give a massage, but habits are a hard thing to break.
"Oh, I don't know--I mean, there was the whole 'b$*$!*# crazy aasimar girl trying to sacrifice me' affair before all of this." Ameiko takes another bottle and pours some of its contents into her hands before lathering herself up.
She doesn't say anything else as you start washing her back, methodically working the lather into her flawless, soft skin and tenderly rinsing it off. Despite not trying to do so, you manage to find several knots in Ameiko's back muscles and start working them out, causing her to moan in relief.
"Yeah... lower--lower. Yep--right there..." Her encouragement entices you to keep working on her back even after you've finished washing it.
Spivey looks at you askance for a moment before realization hits her. "Ohhhhhhhh."
"...yeah, that sort of thing can go one of two ways, in my experience." The lyrakien flits up to your shoulder and stands there. "After enough time, they'll either hate each other so much they never want to see each other again, or they all end up becoming couples. Either way, you're getting more familiar with them than you expected."
Kasha can't help smiling as Spivey lands on her shoulder. "Considering that they're all pretty good people, or at least the ones I've known for most of my life are.....I'd be surprised if anyone ended up hating each other." She pauses thinking for a moment."The other day I got the impression there was something you wanted to ask me."
"Really?" Spivey blinks a couple of times before looking down in thought. "...uhhhhh..."
"...oh yeah!" She snaps her fingers and looks back up at you. She hops off of your shoulder and flits over to the door. "I wanted to ask you about that little animal you carry around with you everywhere."
"Can't say I've seen it before--what is it?"
"Ah...Sly." Kasha replies with a chuckle. As if on cue, the little creature pops his head up from the satchel Kasha usually carries, snd runs over to her, scooting up her leg s settle on her lap. and begin playing with her hand. "He's a weasel, they're very smart and amazing little hunters.....Sly is much smarter than most."
Spivey flits over to the weasel and looks him over with a great deal of interest. "Ooh!"
She tentatively pats the weasel on the head before looking up at you again. "I'm a bit surprised, to be honest; I was kinda expecting--"
She snaps her fingers. "--oh, THAT'S what I meant to ask you! Your mom's a nice lady, and a priestess of Desna, and it doesn't look like you are. Mind if I ask why?"
Valeria continued working Ameiko's back, following her directions. Any thoughts of just getting Ameiko clean were gone from her mind as she just revelled in the feel of her soft skin. Without thinking, her tail came up again, the broad head sliding along the top of the bardess' thigh.
The feeling of your tail on top of her thigh makes Ameiko glance down into the water. You feel her hand on the tip of your tail... and gently sliding along the length of it.
One quirk of Valeria's tiefling physiology was that her tail's sensitivity seemed to change with her mindset - normally it was no more or less sensitive than any other limb, but here with Ameiko, it was another story entirely.
She gasped as Ameiko's hand brushed along her tail, her hands on the bardess' back no longer rubbing but just holding on as she tried to get her brain working again despite the sensations Ameiko was unwittingly causing. On pure instinct, she buried her face into Ameiko's shoulder, her mouth against her skin to muffle a low moan.
Your gasp causes Ameiko to pause in her caressing of your tail, and when you bury your face in her shoulder she tenses a bit. "Val? That didn't hurt, did it?"
She starts to slowly turn towards you, her skin flushed from the bath's heat... at least, the part of your mind that isn't spinning out of control thinks so.
Valeria looked up at Ameiko as she asked, her skin likewise flushed but this was certainly not from the heat. There was a look in her eyes that Ameiko had never seen before, but it wouldn't take a genius to recognise. Even if it did look a little... hungrier than one might expect.
Without warning, she surged forward and pulled Ameiko into a passionate - if clumsy - kiss, any embarrassment or nervousness about the situation seemingly gone.
At first, it's like kissing a wall--Ameiko is quite surprised by you lunging forward and outright taking her like that. But after a couple of moments, she closes her eyes and kisses you back with equal passion.
Her arms wrap around you and you feel her breasts pressing tightly against you, the sensations of pleasure shooting throughout both of your bodies. You can feel her heartbeat speed up and her mouth opens, her warm, smooth tongue poking against your own lips, provoking moans of pleasure from her.
You feel one of her hands move to the base of your spine, where your tail begins, and she firmly takes hold of it.
Later on, Valeria would be surprised that they had managed to be so discreet (although the lack of customers to the baths after Kelda's antics had probably helped).
Ameiko was all she could focus on; her sight, her smell, the way her body felt and tasted... while her lack of experience would have been obvious, she more than made up for it in raw desire. Although after she could once more think straight, she was pretty sure that Ameiko had never been with someone who had a prehensile tail before.
**************************************************************************
Afterwards, Valeria pressed up against the bardess, gently kissing and nibbling at the side of her neck while her tail coiled around one of Ameiko's legs.
Ameiko is quite willing to spend a while with you in the tub...
...and you are quite correct. This is the first time she's ever had someone with a prehensile tail.
--------------
Gasping for breath, head spinning, and holding you close to her while still trembling, Ameiko sighs in relief and giggles as you trail kisses up her neck and nip at her flesh.
"Y'know, you never did answer my question." She whispers into your ear.
"About it hurting?" she asked. "I think you figured the answer out yourself." As a bit of emphasis, she carefully tightened her tail slightly around Ameiko's leg, as though trying to massage them with the thin appendage, the broad head doing the same to her calf.

Ameiko smiles and her eyes briefly roll back in her head in response to your tail's caresses. "Ooohh..."
She clears her throat. "I guess I did, at that." She gently turns your face up to her, and she presses another soft kiss to your lips. Her other hand sinks into your sopping wet hair.
The kiss doesn't last too long--she pulls away to whisper into your ear. "Be honest--how long were you waiting to do that?"
Kasha smiles, understanding the question. "Oh don't get me wrong, I love and revere Desna. One of the things I love most about being outdoors is having the night sky above me. I'm trying to think of the best way to describe it."
Idly petting Sly she thinks for a moment."When you look up into the night sky, on a perfectly clear midsummer night, how do you feel?"
Spivey sighs wistfully. "I look up, and I see the stars, and I feel a whole buncha things. I feel inspired to keep going and see the mortal world, I feel reassured that My Lady is watching me, and... well, I feel kinda awestruck. Just realizing how big this place really is."
"Would you believe five years?" she admitted, still smiling at the reaction her tail had drawn. "The bath wasn't in those original fantasies, though."
"Not for the... first time, at least."
Kasha's smile widens as she leans back on the bed, propped up on her elbows. "That's how I feel when I listen to the wind in the trees, and hear the wildlife, feel the rain against my skin or smell fresh dirt. The natural world just feels like home."
Spivey nods and smiles in agreement. "I wonder if we'll get a chance to explore the wilds around here soon... and maybe have a chance to see what the night sky looks like up here."
Ameiko's hand starts idly tracing the curves of your soaped-up breasts while her other hand plays with your horns. "Was it... everything... you hoped it would be?"
"I hope so. If the opportunity arises we definitely should."Kasha replies happily.
Another faint moan escaped her lips as Ameiko's hands continued their explorations.
"So far," she replied, moving her own lips near Ameiko's ear this time, "depends on what happens after we get up to our room." She punctuated the remark with a quick nibble of her ear, careful to keep her fangs from causing any harm, though a distant corner of Valeria's mind did see a spot of humour in Ameiko getting an ear piercing because of a slip of the jaw.
"I think I'm going to go down and have a bath before we have to meet up with everyone later. We might have a guide to show us over the Crown, once we help his partner locate him." Kasha says to Spivey, once again sitting up.
Once the two of you have finished washing each other, it's finally time to face the world again. After slipping back into your smallclothes and robes, you carefully make your way back to the changing room, leaving behind the great mess of splashed bathwater and scattered toiletries you made in the private alcove.
As you return to the changing room, you spy two piles of clothes and personal effects tucked away in cubby-holes--even a familiar samisen. Kelda chuckles. "Not the only ones who thought of this place, clearly."
The sound of the attendant groaning comes from the other room.
Ameiko gasps as you nip at her ear, and starts nibbling at your neck in response.
"Valeria... if you keep that up, we won't make it up to our room." The bardess whispers, her voice husky and breathy. "Or out of this tub, for that matter..."
The lyrakien flits over to your shoulder and sits down. "Hey, mind if I tag along? I mean, I haven't had a chance to hang out with you like the others yet--"
She's interrupted by a loud snoring coming from one of the beds--it looks like Koya's settled in for a nap.
Kasha breaks into a smile as she hears her mother snoring. Getting up smoothly so as to not dislodge Spivey, she moves over to the other bed to pull the blanket over Koya's sleeping form. "Sure! I think mama's a bit wiped out and needs some rest anyway, and I'm very much enjoying your company." she says giving the lyrakien a warm smile.
Leaving the rest of her gear in the room she makes her way toward the baths.
Spivey remains on your shoulder as you leave the room and head downstairs to the baths. "Glad to hear it--I was feelin' lonely."
---------------
By the time you reach the bathhouse through the back corridors, you notice a pair of familiar faces in the changing room off to the side of the attendant's post. Kelda & Kavell have just finished changing back into their clothes--and Kavell looks a bit battered. And giddy.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
"Well you can stic with me whenever you like." Kasha says with a smile, which rapidly becomes a broad grin at the sight of Kavell looking battered and giddy, and Kelda looking......calmer than she'd seen her to date. "Looks like they definitely spent some....quality time together." she whispers with a chuckle.
"Has a good bath?" she asks as they stop before the attendant.
Ameiko gasps as you nip at her ear, and starts nibbling at your neck in response.
"Valeria... if you keep that up, we won't make it up to our room." The bardess whispers, her voice husky and breathy. "Or out of this tub, for that matter..."
She couldn't help but smile at Ameiko's reaction. "Don't tempt me," she joked, even if her voice was going much the same way as the bardess'.
But she did feel that they'd spent long enough in here - Ameiko would probably be overheating soon - so she, reluctantly, pulled herself away from Ameiko to grab the bottle of soap and find the shampoo. "Now; where were we before I interrupted?"
Ameiko blinks and moans in disappointment as you pull away from her, but when you bring out the bottles of soap and shampoo out she quiets down. "Uh... we finished soaping up when one thing led to another..."
"...and we might need to soap up again, come to think of it." She gives you a half-embarrassed smile.

Ameiko's momentary disappointment wasn't unexpected and actually worked for Valeria - one thing she had learnt tonight was that anticipation was quite the aphrodisiac.
This time, her hands moved across Ameiko's body with a sensual confidence she would never have had before tonight, even using her tail like a third hand to help.
Her newfound confidence surprised her; now that she knew her feelings for the beautiful bardess were reciprocated, it was like all of her concerns and worries had faded or now seemed utterly trivial. Her physical insecurities in particular may as well never have existed - so what if her breasts might be too large for a girl her size? Ameiko clearly didn't seem to mind. So what if she was a tiefling? Even if Ameiko was the sort to care about a person's species, she had more reason to be wary of aasimar, and even then only the ones who reminded her of Nualia.
She resisted the urge to just make love to her again - gods know she wanted to, just not here in the bath - but worked to keep Ameiko hot and bothered, backing off whenever it seemed she was wanting to take it further. For now, she could only imagine what state it would leave her in by the time they made it up to their room.
"Have a good bath?"
Kelda grins and nods. "Quite."
She glances over at Kavell as she tugs the last bit of her kit into place. "And he seems at a loss for words." She helps Kavell into the rest of his gear before walking over to the attendant. "Our thanks for the bath."
The only reply the annoyed attendant can muster is "Please leave."
Your simultaneous cleaning and teasing of her inspires Ameiko to give you the same treatment, carefully massaging your scalp as she shampoos your hair and being especially tender when lathering up your more... intimate bits.
It's clear that the longer it goes on, the more annoyed at your teasing--and interested in continuing--she gets. Once the two of you are finally good and clean, she (rather hurriedly) gets up and out of the tub. She's barely slipped into her smallclothes again when she peeks out from behind the curtain.
"...looks like we've got some more company." She whispers, turning back to you.
Her eyes wander to your chest and seem quite content to stay there.

"Have a good bath?"Kelda grins and nods. "Quite."
She glances over at Kavell as she tugs the last bit of her kit into place. "And he seems at a loss for words." She helps Kavell into the rest of his gear before walking over to the attendant. "Our thanks for the bath."

I er... I..
He began his bronze skin darkening in clear embaressment. Both for Miss Kasha asking about their bath and well for the attendants annoyance. Clearly he was pretty flustered. His hand did move to his belt pouch a moment and pulled out a few coins for the man, for well the clean up of the tub room they used. Kavell had no doubt that uh....they were usually left in a cleaner state though he did give the man a slight stern look as well.
I doubt that is the first time the baths were... used as such, your annoyance is unfounded, but here a few coins for the mess.
He said giving the man a slight inclination before he turned to Spivey and Kasha, his hand slipping into Kelda's. Is Grandmother Koya resting?"
He asked politely.
"Heh, good to hear. Yes she's taking a nap to rest up for later. We'll see you later." Kasha says flashing them both a grin before approaching the attendant.
"Hello, we'd like a bath." she says to the clearly disgruntled man.
