I Like Long Walks On The Beach

[iamnotpolaris]

The beach is a nice, convenient, out-of-earshot place to calibrate the coordinates for this universe.

Making them up would be fairly difficult to do. They are so very themselves.

[whatamithinking]

So very very. It's a great deal of what's so lovely about them.

[endragoned]

That is good. It is good to be liked for how very themselves they are, because they are not about to start being any less themselves anytime soon.

[whatamithinking]

Good. And--she wouldn't be surprised if there were telepaths this didn't apply to, but because she is a telepath, liking someone for something they are not is not going to happen.

[endragoned]

That works out very nicely, then, doesn't it.

[whatamithinking]

Very nicely indeed. She's going to kiss him again now.

[endragoned]

What a delightful idea.

[whatamithinking]

She suspected he might feel that way.

(In a back corner of her mind she observes that if he/they were not so utterly him/themself, the fact that the two humanoids were kissing against the dragon might be awkward.)

[endragoned]

In the actual reality she inhabits, the thought that it might be awkward has not even crossed their minds. The dragon is snuggling the demon and Edie while they kiss; that is just a perfectly reasonable and obvious thing for them all to be doing.

[whatamithinking]

Yes, quite. Most of her mind is occupied by the snuggling and the kissing and how nice it is.

Last time only the demon was around. This time acid ice knives can be supplied for both of them.

[endragoned]

She is so thoughtful, and they are so delighted!

[whatamithinking]

Delight is the effect she was going for, there. Delight, and also more kisses.

[endragoned]

Both delight and kisses are certainly occurring. What a success.

[whatamithinking]

...She vaguely wonders whether it would be possible to borrow their attitude towards pain in response to pain that was occurring to her own body, but she cannot induce hallucinations in herself and given the strength disparity and the talons it's almost certainly unsafe to check. A pity. Perhaps they can experiment later with some sort of preparation in advance.

[endragoned]

In the meantime, they have delight and kisses.

[whatamithinking]

Delight and kisses! And telepathy. And cuddles.

Acid ice knives are fun but she likes being creative. What else can she do that is delightful...

[endragoned]

They are sure it will be very delightful, whatever it is. Surprises are fun.

[whatamithinking]

So they are. Not that it will be a total surprise, as they're sure to see the intention forming in her mind before she actually applies it.

Well, what's the sensation of broken bones like, applied to places that are not bone? She applies a ring of fractures around the demon's biceps and the dragon's forelimb muscles.

[endragoned]

Surprising and also delightful! It's so - they can't think of comparisons, but it's interesting and it's nice and they love her very much.

[whatamithinking]

Basking in the affection. She loves them very much too.

The bullet ant venom was such a hit last time. Why not just replace their blood with it? That seems efficient.

[endragoned]

Such delight.

[whatamithinking]

Delight, and kisses, and now feedback loops.

[endragoned]

It is all very delightful indeed.
