The windows of the house rattle as Gabe’s portal closes with a thunderclap. The morning sun filters through a slight haze of dust kicked up by the Sender’s arrival.

“Guys? I’m home!” Gabe announces, as if it weren’t apparent.

Gabe: Find spare dildo

Time for kisses.

Find the bedroom and slide in for cuddles

Pile-on in 3, 2, ... they haven't gone anywhere, have they?

well, that's one way to wake your friends, best hope they slept well!

Follow your nose, is anyone cooking? Maybe you can hear something?

Tip toe up the stairs to surprise them.

added new thread to the wiki

They're probably just woken, those portals aren't quiet.

“Gabe?” Comes the reply. Casey and Kol stick their heads out of the bedroom door and scurry downstairs, still undressed.

“Hey, are you okay?” Kol asks as they exchange hugs and kisses.

>>1073975
Rested, maybe but missing the others, probably.

He's been figuring some stuff out, but is, for now, making plans for the next adventure. Some days, you just wanna go on a quest to gather three gems, ya know?

Since everyone just got up, get some breakfast first.

Breakfast seems good, yes.
Helpful to ease into the conversation too.

Calmed for now. Had enough Del time--now need mouse time. Gotta get that love from all over. And give a lil' too, sharing is caring.

No longer panicked, maybe just a bit of "Not thinking about all that" right now, but that's what cute boys, girls, and therapists are for, probably.

Breakfast at the bakery?

Gabe smiles back, “Oh yeah. Del fixed me right up!” He rolls back his cape to show his unburnt fur.

“No, I mean… yeah that’s good… but are you okay?”

The Sender sighs and frowns, but his thoughts are interrupted by a rumble from his stomach. “Actually can we get breakfast first? If I stayed any longer at Del’s she was gonna take me on a morning jog.” His voice rings with the hollow dread of someone who just dodged a bullet.

“We haven’t eaten either. We’ll get dressed.” Casey suggests, “Wanna get something from Miki and Raithe’s?”

Gabe's portal deposits them next door to the bakery a few minutes later. The door jingles as they crowd inside and are greeted by Miki's perky smile.

"I thought I heard a gate! How's it going guys? You missed the morning rush!" She bubbles with barely contained delight as they step up to the counter and exchange hugs. "Can I get you anything? Or are you just here to say 'hi'?"

How about something simple? Like a Croissant, a Donut, a Danish, and a few Biscotti?
And be sure to compliment that haircut!

>>1074162
Something sweet and maybe a booth? Do they have coffee here?

Seed paste pastries with a cream filling.
Yes, that kind~

Here to ask how its been over some food!
do you have any weird foods?

Yo Miki! How's married life treating ya?

Treat them, would you? These guys could use some friendship and carbohydrate-based comfort.

Pancakes.

An almond croissant can always fill that void in the heart.

Get some decadent sugary pastries. They all deserve a treat

“Can I get an almond croissant?” Casey asks.

Kol considers his order, “Uhhh a danish for me.”

“A donut and a biscotti for me.” Gabe grins, “Do you have any coffee too?”

Miki’s tongs go to work snagging their breakfast and she giggles. “For customers, no. But come on back to the kitchen and I’ll put some on.” She scurries to the door and flips the sign to say “Back in a few minutes.”

Munching happily on the pastries, they follow the baker behind the counter and into the kitchen.

“How’s married life treating you?” Casey asks.

Miki grabs a kettle from the counter and fills it with water. “Surprisingly, not that different. The wedding was like being in a dream, and now we're back down to earth. We’re still getting used to the whole calling each other husband and wife thing.” She knocks on the door of the oven. “Raithe, honey, would you be a dear?”

An orange, blazing hand reaches out and grasps the kettle from beneath, causing the metal to slowly glow cherry red. “Sure thing! Oh, hi guys!” The salamander’s head peeks out of the furnace and grins.

As Kol finishes up his danish he mentions, “I like your haircut, Miki.”

“Oh, thank you!” She pats the soft fuzz at the back of her head. “I did feel like I needed something different after the wedding. Kind of a ‘new chapter in life’ thing. Plus tying up that bun was kind of a hassle.”

“Tell me about it.” Kol chuckles, his hand reaching for the tight bundle of dreads.

“We haven’t seen you since the wedding. How have you been?” Raithe asks, clearly happy to have more people to chat with at work.

In the thick of it with the guide and Barghest. The more we dig, the more that we find needs fixed.

>>1074387

Oh, you know. A lot has happened. It's been rough in places, but we're here. The whole Barghast situation seems to be okay, and we may have figured out some crazy stuff related to Moot and the mana wells, too.

"Exhausted. First time we fought a Lich."

I guess you could say you'll have to wait longer for that surrogacy you asked for. Not unless you'd like us to take your kid-to-be adventuring, would you? A fire ward could come in handy :D

But seriously, are they building out their little nest? Has business been picking up? It sounds like she's been busy.

"We met another lich. Sex was not an option this time."

We... had a rough sending, our first, taking a break in a place the opposite of that

“Had a bit of a rough day yesterday.” Kol sighs and looks to his partners, who nod along in agreement. “We had a bit of a breakthrough with our search for Hekal, but we also had to deal with another lich. It… didn’t go well.”

“Oh fuck… are you guys okay?” Miki takes the steaming kettle from her husband, apparently unbothered by the heat. She transfers the water into a large ceramic coffee maker and sets out some cups and saucers while it brews.

The mice shrug and shift uncomfortably. “Yeah, for the most part.” Casey answers, “But it got dicey and we had to banish him.”

“Oh, honey…” Miki frowns and looks on sympathetically.

“Slag me…” Raithe shakes his head, “That sucks, guys.”

“Yeah, we kinda just wanna take it easy today, if we can.” Kol says, folding his arms and leaning against the countertop.

The smell of brewing coffee fills the tiny, intimate space as Miki fills everyone’s cups. “Well, you three are welcome to hang out as long as you want. Raithe and I are happy to have the company."

Go with the flow. And the flow is saying bakery smells and friendships.

>>1074544
Have we ever thanked them? Ever since these two first met, things have been up for you guys. A lot of growth started with this bakery.

It sounds like you could use a vacation, or some time off from your duties as Spirit Guides. There can't be a better time to do it. Your lead at the scrying machine as gone dry, if for now, and you are not ready to take the Spirit Guardian Trials at this point. In a way, you saw a person who is defined and thus defined himself by his accomplishments, to the exclusion of all else, and what that ultimately leads to.

Maybe put the cap the magic for the day, too. Just tour the town you live in. Try to live like regular citizens of Moot Point, and put yourself in their shoes to understand what you're defending. The other guardians will pick up the slack.

Kol lets the scent of the coffee fill his lungs and takes a sip. While not as powerful and complex as a cup of fey coffee, its rich and warming and perks him up immediately. Around him, his partners are visibly relaxing and decompressing as the worries from yesterday start to drift away. 

“By the way, we never really thanked you, did we.” He says.
Miki looks up from washing out the coffee pot: a pair of elbow length gloves protecting her fur from the water. “For what, the coffee? Don’t worry about it!” 

“No, I mean, thanks for that too. But ever since we first helped you out, we’ve worked better as a team, and you helped introduce us to so many people. Just wanted to thank you.” 

Miki and Raithe share a surprised glance before bursting into laughter, gouts of flame erupting from both of their mouths. The fire rakes over the walls of the kitchen as the mice retreat from the flames. An orange sigil glows on the ceiling as the kitchen’s fire ward activates and protects the building, leaving only some soot and the smell of burnt flour. 

The bakers manage to stifle their laughter and clamp their mouths shut, little wisps of flame sneaking through their fingers as they contain themselves. 

Once the situation settles down, Miki and Raithe take a couple of deep breaths and sigh. “Sorry! Sorry about that!” Miki says, “Fates I haven’t laughed like that in years.” 
“What’s so funny?” Casey asks, her heart still racing from the twin flamethrowers. 

“Guys…” Raithe answers, “You literally changed our lives! We’re so much happier having met you! We can’t thank you enough!” 

Then… it goes both ways! And that’s good! We were good influences on one another! Be it by biscotti or otherwise.

>>1074693
Well, then cheers to friends!

It is too easy to forget all the people you helped when on a big adventure, isn't it?

Doesn't take much to change a life, but it certainly takes a bit of effort to change one for the better!

"Hm. You should be careful; one day, all wards in the world might decide to follow a different fundamental law and die."

“I guess we all helped make each other’s lives better.” Kol admits.

“And everyone else too.” Gabe chimes in, “Del, Vivian, Caleb…”

“Cecil, Three-Horns, Clio, Flashing Feathers…” Casey continues.

“Nixxy and Fennel, Cauldera, Nemo, and so many others...” Kol nods along in agreement. “We’ve all been there for each other. Although, its the person we have to help next that I’m really worried about…”

“You mean Rodwin, right?” Casey asks.

Kol sighs, “Yeah.”

“You mean that guy who brought that… dog-mountain thing here?” Miki asks, her face darkened by uncharacteristic concern. “What’s up? Everything alright?"

oh y'know just the fate of the world as we know it as well as a trip to the actual afterlife where we meet actual god

Geez, you'd think a smart guy like his master Hekal wouldn't forget to leave instructions on how to disassemble that thing. He had to leave behind something when building this town, wouldn't he? Some clues to where he went? Maybe even a message to his favorite advisor, to help him pass on?

"There's just... no easy way to break the hard truth to him. And we're worried he'll freak out at the slightest insinuation that his beloved master abandoned him; even if it was for their original cause, he had all that time in the university to write Rodwin a letter and..."

They came out here looking for someone but it seems like that person didn't want to be found. Explaining that someone like Rodwin is going to be.. difficult. There has to be a way we can break the news easily.
Speaking of, Are we opposed to showing them The same footage we saw? It would be an unaffiliated third parties' records. Hard to argue against.

There's really not much sugarcoating that can be done with Rodwin, unfortunately. If we lie, or leave out any details, or go to any effort to spin it, for his sake, he'll know. He's going to want the truth, and wont appreciate any attempt to keep it from him or shield him from it.

“Usual stuff: fate of the world, have to go on a mission to see the fates.” Gabe says with a feigned bravado. His eyes dodge away from Miki’s gaze as he scratches the back of his head nervously.

“Rodwin wants us to uncover what happened to his master, Lord Hekal. But what we found… we’re not sure how well he’s going to handle it.” Casey says. “It seems like Hekal betrayed his whole army, or at the very least abandoned them.”

Kol shakes his head and continues, “Also, Rodwin is trying to hold the bargast together with the last of his mana. If he fails, the remains of Hekal’s army could emerge, hungry for mana.”

“Hungry for mana?” Raithe slinks back into the oven and closes the door. His voice comes through muffled by brick and iron, “Awwww slag me. All us elementals are going to be like a buffet for the undead…”

“Awww I won’t let anything happen to you, honey.” Miki leans her face against the raging furnace, unbothered by the heat.

Well not just elementals, it's everyone. It really wouldn't be a good idea to reveal what we know to Rodwin until we have a definitive reason why Hekal dropped everything to seal the mana wells.

Let's not put a damper on the happy couple's mood, now. Miki and Raithe don't need to be shouldering those kinds of worries.

Honestly, Vivian and Caleb might be better choices if the gang really needs someone to talk to about Rodwin right now

shouldn't we be asking Graves how to break it to Rodwin?
I forget is there anything other than Rodwin stoppong us from just, Sending the undead, though honestly I don't remember if Rodwin is Fae or undead, and if Undead if there's anything else holding him here, all I know for certain is we need to tell him at some point, and that telling him will be a part of getting rid of all the undead

Yeah we're not here to scare everyone but how to break the news tactfully is our current head scratcher

Send a small report to Rodwin, but encrypt most of the message.

“Not just elementals: everyone in town would be in danger.” Casey shakes her head. “And we still don’t actually know what happened to Hekal, or have a definitive answer for what he did. It might be better to hold off on telling Rodwin, until we know more.”

“I’m not sure how much more time we have.” Kol sips his coffee and chuckles darkly. “But considering all we went through yesterday, we should probably relax while we can. And you two don’t need to worry about all that. The Guardians have been working on how to protect the town if need be.”

“Honestly, you’re helping plenty just by getting us to relax.” Gabe says as he stirs his coffee with a biscotti, “Feels like we’ve been doing nothing but running around chasing legends.”

“Well is there anything else we can do for you guys?” Miki asks.

We're open to ideas for day trips and mini vacations

“Why don’t you take a day off? Come out with us somewhere!” Casey suggests.

“Yeah! I’m all wired up and ready to go!” Gabe says, polishing off his drink. “I can gate us wherever you guys wanna go.”

“Wherever we want to go, hmmmm.” Miki thinks for a moment and her eyes go wide as inspiration strikes. She scurries out of the kitchen without another word; her footsteps thumping through the kitchen wall as she rushes upstairs.

The mice look to one another and ask Raithe, “What's she doing?”

“No idea…” the salamander admits as his wife’s feet drum softly on the ceiling.

There's a scrape and a thump, as if something heavy was being pulled aside and opened before the footsteps doppler back downstairs. Miki re-emerges in the kitchen, tiny flames licking at her face as she pants excitedly.

In her arms is a flat, plain box: made to hold something only used for special occasions.

“I figured since we have everyone here: maybe we could go visit Vivian?” She asks sheepishly, opening the box to reveal a folded piece of red silk: a piece of the fey’s heart left in her care. “I wanted to go see her after the wedding, but I’ve been too shy to ask, and I kept making up excuses to put it off.” Her fingers trace the edge of the exquisite cloth, as if still in disbelief that its real.

Vivian! she seems quite good at taking minds off of things... as well as advice, for both Rodwin and Life.
that reminds me, didn't we get something from a Selkie at some point?

Oh hell yeah, Viv chapter! Maybe we can get Kol and Casey "familiar" with Viv, hehe

>>1075705
Oohh great idea! Let's see another friendly face. It'd be interesting to see how our friends have interacted with each other

Oh yeah weren't we going to find out if the Fey have any records from back then? One of the First Guardians was a Fey so if someone spoke to her during that time we might get some info.

Oh come on, you just had a wedding!

“Oh yeah, she keeps taking that out to look at. She put in a chest to stop wearing it out with her eyes.” Raithe chuckles from his oven.

“Ahh! Don’t tell them that!” Miki hugs the cloth to her chest protectively, “Vivian’s an important, busy person! I just didn’t want to bother her… but maybe she’d have time to see all of us?”

“Actually that’s not a bad idea.” Casey says, putting her cup aside. “Viv might be able to give us some advice on the situation with Rodwin. Plus… yeah, it’d be nice to see her again. We’d probably want to ask if it’s alright first: fey can be very particular about invitations.” She turns to her partner. “Gabe, can you find her on your scrying gem?”

The mouse gives a thumbs up and pulls the crystal out of his pocket dimension. Holding it up to his face, he concentrates for a moment as the fey’s face appears within.

Vivian have looks up from a book that she was reading and smiles, “Gabe! I had a feeling someone would come calling today, but didn’t expect you! How are you?”

“Thats me, Viv: always unpredictable.” He winks, earning a laugh like a bark from the singer. “I’m doing good. Listen, we were just hanging out with Miki and Raithe and wanted to see if it would be okay to drop by and visit. Are you busy?”

“Busy? No, I was just enjoying some reading in my sanctuary. I’d love to see you all!" She tucks a finger into the book and fishes out a ribbon to mark her place. "You know how to get here, right? Just throw my sash up into the air and let it drape over the doorway."

The same way she's draped herself all over your hearts. that's very cheesy nevermind

We'd be honored. Let's finish up our snacks and head over. Would be rude to bring crumbs.

>>1075834
Miki seems quite flustered to meet. Is she wanting to seek advice or magic from a wise old Fae, or just taken by her razzle-dazzle?

Gabe giver her a thumbs up and tucks the crystal away in his pocket dimension. “Got all that?” He asks.

Miki nods, looking a little shocked. “Oh- okay? Really? We can come visit? Just like that?” She glances down at the silken sash as she clutches it tight.

“You okay, Miki?” Kol inquires, “You’re looking a bit flustered.”

The chinchilla bobs her head in something approximating a nod. “It’s just that… I grew up listening to her music all the time and she’s… well, amazing, and I’m just a plain little baker and… oh Fates, I don’t knowwww…” She trails off as anxiety and desire tug her heart back and forth.

not to be grim, but end of the world scenario on the horizon. The biggest fey celebrity in the world would love to see you. Don't flounder this one

Amazing or not, she's just a person. A person that'd love to see you. And from outside, it's easy to see people as incredible beacons of inspiration. You're an amazing baker that creates works of mutual art in the kitchen with your husband. From outside, you're just incredible too. C'mon, just have fun.

Someone help her come up with an icebreaker, like they have something in common.

Your food is amazing too! ask Raithe!

well, if you are feeling so anxious, you could bake her something special... or talk to her through the crystal first, before we visit

a peptalk? hmmm... you are both creators of temporary things, music and food, calling yourself "just" a baker is calling her "just" a musician, both these arts are special! together, you could feed both body and soul~
Also, I feel that were she the baker and your the singer, but all else the same, you'd be exactly as flustered as you are now, if not more so

The more you think about it the worse the anxiety will be. Just go for it and everything will be fine.

Well, ours is a job where you sometimes meet interesting people... but also get to see them as exactly that: people, with their own feelings, strengths and weaknesses.

“Honey, come on.” Raithe says, emerging fully from his perch in the oven. “We’ll be fine. Besides, someone who’s made truefire shine like you is anything but plain.”

Miki looks up at her husband meekly, but thankful for the support. “Awww.”

“Well, why don’t we bring her some snacks? I’m sure Viv would appreciate that.” Gabe suggests. “Baking is like art, right? Viv’s all about art!”

“Yeah, I don’t think there’s anyone in the city who could call your baking plain.” Kol agrees.

Casey chimes in, “Plus, it would be rude to refuse a fey’s invitation…”

“Oh-okay…” Miki nods slowly, gaining confidence. “Let’s do it…” she takes a deep breath and throws the silk up into the air. The fabric arcs into the air as it slips through her fingers; still reluctant to let go until the last possible moment.

It drifts like some diaphanous sea creature before settling over an unnaturally square invisible surface. The sash hangs in impossible defiance of gravity, forming a perfect curtain which drapes all the way to the floor.

“Raithe, can you bring that tray of scones you were warming?” Miki asks, taking off her apron. She grabs a jar of jelly off the shelf: preserves from an apricot orchard outside of town she sells in the shop. She tucks it into a basket with the scones and squares her shoulders as if preparing for battle. “Alright, let’s do this.” She states, determination set on her fluffy face.

With Kol holding the curtain aside, Miki is strides into Vivian’s heartspace, followed by her husband and friends.

They emerge inside a dimly lit foyer decorated with lengths of silk: the long red sashes winding up columns and draping down from the ceiling giving the room a distinctly organic feeling.

“Hello? Vivian? Its us!” Gabe announces.

A glowing figure emerges from the darkness and strides towards them, “Hey everyone!” Caludera traces a hand across the silk as she approaches.

Eee gosh how *are* you? Catch up!!

Hey firebird! Scone?

Love what you've done with the place. Nice of Viv to make room for you in her heart/home. Though, that also means it'd be rude to ask about any empty rooms.

“Cauldera!” Raithe flaps up to greet the phoenix and they share a hug, "How are you?"

"Fantastic. Absolutely fantastic." She turns to lead the way, "Come and join us in the garden!"

Raithe follows, the two elementals lighting the way for the rest as they journey through Vivian's sanctum.

"Wow this is much nicer than your pocket space." Casey remarks, looking at the high ceilings and columns.

"Yeah, well she has like a hundred years more practice." Gabe admits, "Plus I don't use mine for, you know, hosting parties and stuff."

Cauldera leads them through a doorway and into the sunlight, stepping out across a thick, soft lawn.

What sort of garden stuff is she growing? Didn't realize she had a green thumb.

Woah, how did Vivian get sunlight in a pocketspace? That's got to be some kind of pseudo-sunlight, right?

Take in the sights and smells, what's she growing?

Raithe halts at the doorway, his eyes wide with amazement as he stares at the phoenix’s feet. Despite the heat of her blazing feathers, the plants around her remain lush and unharmed.

“You noticed?” Cauldera remarks, reaching up to caress the underside of a wisteria flower. “Its all warded. You don’t have to worry here.” Her smile is hard to read; a kind of pride sneaking around the edges of her beak.

“Hey, don’t compare my fur to grass!” Miki wails, “Do you see all this? You know how hard I work to stay this fluffy?”

Her words fall on deaf ears as Raithe takes the moment to roll around in the grass in a giggling fit. “Heheheheh it’s so tickly!”

“Raithe, come on! What if Vivian sees?”

“Sees what?” Says an elegant voice, which seems to speak in harmony with itself.

Who's going to be the one to sit down next to Raithe and scratch his belly?

How were these plants warded, couldn't have been nearly as easy as warding a house, houses aren't alive!... usually

Oh yeah since everything's warded, the elementals can be freely touched! Get over there and pet that salamander!

If there was ever a time to go the natural experience, Viv would be the first, wouldn't she?

>>1076990
Introduce yourself to Vivian. No need to get off the grass.

“Vivian!” Miki squeaks and Raithe sits up suddenly, his face flushed white-hot with embarrassment.

The fey smiles at the pair and greets her guests. “Welcome everyone, to our garden. So good to see you all.” She’s dressed casually for the day: wearing a shawl and simple, well-made dress that somehow still radiates with class and elegance.

“Thanks for having us over! Lovely place you have here!” Kol replies, looking around at the greenery.

While pretty, there’s a kind of haphazard look to the garden that's hard to place. Rather than the clean, immaculate lines of Cecil Ochre’s estate; roses and hydrangeas are cluttered on top of one another while morning glories and star jasmine fight for space among the trellises. Many of the plants still seem young, giving the impression of a jungle that has yet to fully develop.

“Wait, so everything in here is fire warded?” Gabe asks, “Including us?”

Vivian nods and tugs at her shawl to better show off the gem on her choker. “As long as I keep this on, yes. Why?”

A moment later Raithe is tackled back to the grass as the mouse clambers on top of the elemental and rubs his belly.

“Gabe! Don’t just jump on my husband!” Miki huffs.

“Sorry, couldn’t resist.” Gabe looks up and grins as one of Raithe’s legs kicks lazily behind him. “He looked so happy getting to touch grass, why not let him indulge?”

The baker opens her mouth to counter, but is paused by memories of growing up mostly within her family kitchen. Whenever she got to play outside, it was only under hawk-like observation: her mother or father always nearby with a bucket of sand or water in case of an accidental fire.

Miki sighs and shrugs, smiling as the pair tussle on the turf.

Everyone pile in. Give that good hubby some bellyrubs and tactile contact. Ear scritches, aw yisss

Vivian never fails to impress, how did she achieve this garden?

Oh, do they feed on fire instead of water? That'd be neat.

She did say OUR garden, looks like they're an official package! Or she did a sort of fey ritual where she shares her heart with another. Either way, it's lovely that there's love!

>>1077225

Pet the big glowing fire-puppy. Do it now.

As more of the mice pile onto Raithe and start giving him scritches, Miki turns to address their host. “Thank you for letting us visit!” She holds up the basket of still-warm scones and offers them to the fey. “We, uh, brought these for you!”

Vivian takes the offering and looks inside, “Ohhh? You know I haven’t stopped thinking about the deserts you made for the wedding. Thank you!”

Blushing a bit, but feeling more confident, Miki asks. “So this place is all a part of you, right? Does that mean the plants are too?”

The singer chuckles as she spreads jam on a scone, “They used to be. My heartspace was always- well... too dark and broody to grow a proper garden. The glamour is tied to my mood, you see, so it just created whatever I felt like in my mind: mostly moonlit nights and dark, tangled vines.” She points at Cauldera with a knife still dripping jelly and continues, “But having her around brightened things up a lot, literally and I wanted to give her something special.”

“So she let me grow real plants!” Cauldera beams, “I don’t know a lot about gardening, but I’ve worked in a foundry before, so I’m no stranger to hard work. I don’t know what it is, but getting down in the dirt is so… satisfying!“ The phoenix hugs Vivian from behind and gives her a beaky kiss. “I love it so much, Viv!”

“She still has to be careful while watering. This place is protected from flame, but it doesn’t work the other way around. Still, nothing makes my heart glow like seeing someone create for the first time.” Vivian croons happily.

That truly is a magical moment. The pride of Creation. Is that why Vivian is drawn to the arts so much?

Awww that's amazing! I don't think I've ever seen Vivian this happy before, it looks like she really found her other half! Who knew Fire elementals make such great partners?

>>1077324
miki presumably.

Anyway, it's true though, never seen her this happy before. Maybe tell her that! It's really great!

Gabe looks up from petting Raithe’s long, fiery belly and remarks, “Considering how dark it used to be here, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you this happy before!”

The kitsune waves a hand as if to say "oh you" before taking a bite of her scone.

Vivian’s eyes open wide: revealing a pair of glassy, black mirrors like deep pools of water. She pauses with the biscuit still held to her lips.

>>1077375
Seems like Miki's cooking skills are very amazing! Vivian seems like she's struggling to process the wonderful taste she's experiencing!

Isn't liking delicious baked goods kind of a fae thing? Gentle teasing may be in order. See Miki? You are amazing.

Yeah, her new bird really does seem to bring out the twinkle in her eyes. I think.

Is her gaze piercing into your soul, or is her mental headset getting a call from the void?

Oh wow, is something wrong? We've never seen her eyes either. Are they supposed to be that dark?

So were the scones just THAT good or should we be worried, it's cool if you simply have creepy eyes, though if something happened it might happen to REALLY be the time to discuss Rodwin, though I would hate for it to be dark in here again

What kind of scones were these again..?

>>1077402
The delicious kind

Isn't that the eyes of an undead, like Sir Opinel's?

Well, no matter. Fey folk go about undeath in a different way, as has been shown. But it might explain why someone of her age and power is gracing the mortal realm - and why they've been gloomy about it. But there's been enough doom and gloom of late, for sure! So let's just let Viv fully enjoy Hearthfire bakery's honest offering and relax for a bit before moving on to the more important business at hand.

And if there's something special about these scones, Miki should explain. Given Vivian's wide-eyed expression maybe someone should jokingly ask just HOW much love she poured into these - and may they have one?

>>1077375

Going to just reach here, and say we're about to see an impromptu fae opera about how good it is, "Yakitate!! Japan" style.

>>1077375
Looks like she just took a hit of the GOOD stuff.

Kol: Contemplate how relationships could have gone very differently in an alternate timeline where Wraithe and Cauldera asked for relationship help from the trio instead of breaking up.
Then remind Viv that this didn't happen.

“Vivian? Are you-“ Miki asks, suddenly concerned that something might be wrong. Before she can finish, the scone disappears in a flash of teeth and a sound like a snarl.

Vivian’s tongue flicks over her lips lightning fast: a little scarlet streak like a fox escaping a hen house. “You made these?” She asks, her voice breathy and serious.

Miki nods, terrified as the fey towers over her and leans close.

“Please excuse me for a minute.” The kitsune takes the basket and dives into the bushes, disappearing with a swish of her tails.

“Is she okay?” Miki asks.

“I don’t know.” Cauldera admits. “I’ve only ever seen her get that intense about art or music. What was in those?”

“Just the usual stuff: flour, water, salt, sugar, blueberries, butter, milk…” She pauses to think, “Maybe the butter was off? No, it seemed fine. Hey Raithe! Those scones came out like usual, right?”

The salamander moans from his happy place under several mice, “Uh- huhhhhh…”

Miki rolls her eyes and shrugs, “Ugh he’s gone. I don’t know what to tell you.”

Cauldera's still there, maybe er, well, what does she DO when this happens with art or music? Would it be a good idea to peek in and check in on her?

You know what they say, baking is an art

Oh my god, Miki's baking is so good it made the ever elegant Vivian feral over some scones. That's a high praise if I've ever seen it!

Fae take art VERY seriously, and there is the old saying that baking is more art than science, so...

you forgot the ingredient love!
but seriously what emotions and memorious did you put into it, if I remember right fey can deal in some abstract things curtesy of magic, so love is probably an actual ingredient?

Just get his OK to check up on Viv, Miki. He'd understand whatever that entails.

A few minutes later and Vivian re-emerges, her hair sticking up in a few places and brushing leaves off her dress. In her hand is the basket , which is now empty, save for a few crumbs. “Back! Sorry to worry you! I’m… fine!”

“Are you sure, because if-“

“Please-“ The fey insists, “Um, how to put this… How would you feel about providing me with one of those every day? Fresh?” She smiles with a mouth full of worryingly sharp teeth.

“Uh- I mean, are you sure? The blueberries are seasonal, so sometimes we do currants or raspberries…” Miki stammers.

Vivian stops her, “It can be anything, as long as its baked and fresh.”

“Is this one of those fey things?” Miki asks, nervously.

“Yes- no- well…” The kitsune struggles to explain, “Yes it is a fey thing. But no, I’m not proposing a formal contract: I’m not going to steal you away for a hundred years over breakfast.”

She continues, “You know how fey are about art, right? To us, art is like a kind of magic: its a change placed upon the world by thought and skill. Some, like myself, consider it to be our highest calling. A form of worship, if you will.”

“What are you saying?” The chinchilla asks as Vivian bends down to speak eye to eye.

There's a sigh and Vivian rests a hand on the baker’s shoulder, “I’m saying that those scones were, quite literally, a religious experience.”

It's ok Miki. Just take a soft breath and tell her the same was true about her performance. But, like, maybe less literally. Anyway, you'd be honored to put aside some pastries for her for your batches each day!

I think at this point it's okay to be just a wee bit flustered

>>1077799
>“I’m saying that those scones were, quite literally, a religious experience.”
I'm pretty sure that this is the highest compliment Miki has ever received!

Hmmm, personal daily catering seems like a good deal, but I'd sure get sick of eating the same thing every day. It seems like a transactional relationship like this would be detrimental to both parties, as the supplier would be more of a supplier than a friend, and the receiver would either get sick of the product or grow reliant on it. Even though it isn't a fey deal, it's still a dangerous transaction. Tread carefully.

>>1077804
I'm saying snarfing something down in a bush and calling it a religious experience is probably not a good thing. Fey or not, that's sketchy.

>>1077799
A little concerned about how seriously she's treating this, so ask why the sudden sober tone.
That said, this IS high praise and if there is no contract or other form of binding, I'm thinking there's no issue with her having something you've made fresh of a day.

(She's probably not gonna need told but also just manage expectations that, with or without warning it might not happen on days where you are on holiday or sick or whatnot)

Damn, your scones are THAT good?

Is she kidding? No? Okay.

As far as Miki is concerned, she's not providing something here she's not already making for other customers. If Vivian is able to appreciate and honor a frickin' breakfast scone as something divine and want more of it, that is simply just flattering as all heck.

Would Viv be alright, though? If Miki should happen to get sick, take a vacation, etc. the supply may not be as steady as once a day, and then... well, she'd have to do without. Though Miki could make some longer-lasting treats to tide Viv over and just set up a delivery schedule, ah wait, but she wanted fresh. Hm... if Cauldera could do the final cooking touch, she could prepare some ready-to-bake goods and give a few cooking lessons? Having a fire elemental in the kitchen isn't going to be a problem in the Hearthfire Bakery, after all.

Anyway, yeah, duh. Miki would love to provide baked goods every day! It's her job and calling and as long as the bakery is open and nothing unforeseen occurs, Viv will always find something to put on her palate. It's a non-binding but heartfelt promise!

Just calling Vivian a regular customer would be a supreme honor in itself, y'know? And now that Miki knows she likes them good-fancy eatums, she sure has an excuse to keep polishing her skills.

>>1077799

Congrats, girl! Your scones are so good, you made a Fey see the divine.

There is no higher form of praise.

Does Viv have any insight or wisdom from this, that she'd like to share?

“I- I’m honored! That’s incredible!” Miki staggers, a little punch drunk by the surprise. “I gotta… you’re sure?”

“I know art when I see, or taste it in this case.” Vivian nods.

The chinchilla’s mind races, knowing any agreement with a fey needs to be fully considered. “What happens if I miss a day? Is that going to be alright?”

Vivian nods reassuringly, “I’ve lived for over a century without your baking, a break now and then won’t be a problem.”

“Good, because Raithe and I need vacation and sick days.” Miki scratches her head and eyes her husband as he wriggles in the grass. “Actually, you know, Raithe is just as important to making these as me. I wonder if he could teach Cauldera to bake them for you. That way you could have them fresh whenever you want.”

“Me, baking? Sounds fun! I’d love to give it a shot!” The phoenix beams.

“I don’t get it. Why are my scones so important? I mean I put a lot of work into them, but…” Miki asks.

Vivian sits back on the grass and sighs, “Do you know why I only sing opera from mortal composers?”

“No, why’s that?”

“Fey culture is very stagnant. Its beautiful and vibrant, but very slow to change. Much of our lives are dictated by laws and the fates, as interpreted by dream seers.” Vivian holds out a hand and a nearby vine grows to coil around her fingers. “Everything we might need, we can just ask for as long as our magic is intact.”

“But mortals innovate: they’re creative and quick. Everything is busy and dramatic and your lives are so full and passionate.” She smiles fondly, “Not to say that those are traits exclusive to mortals, but it makes your world and your art very special to some of us.”

Consider it an honor. Do you have to shake on it?

I wonder what changes Vivian will notice in Miki's art of baking as time goes on, I hardly believe she is simply going to stop improving after all, especially with Vivian as an even more direct motivation
Who knows maybe there'll be some rare ingredients growing in this garden at some point
I wonder what Elemental Culture is like, in comparison, lets ask Cauldera about it

Tell her that there may be specifics to work out later, but you'd love to bake for her. It's not like you aren't a pretty big fan of hers too, after all. It's nice that such powerful creatures can find such incredible joy in mortals when they're doing nothing but living their happy lives. The founders of this era really did make the right choice--for everyone involved, it seems.

She's already done so much for you, your marriage, and your future. It's really the least you could do.

Miki smiles and sits down next to her, “I’d be honored to bake for you, Vivian.” She watches as Raithe rolls over, trapping Gabe underneath him and giggles, “I had heard some stuff about fey culture, but never realized you thought that way about us.”

“Mmm-hm. Especially among the younger generations of fey. Its one reason the craft guilds have been able to flourish lately: lots of demand for mortal masterworks.”

Cauldera joins them on the lawn and Miki asks, “What about elementals? I’ve asked Raithe but he gets all evasive when talking about life on the elemental plane.”

The phoenix nods and shrugs, “That might be because it's very alien to what you're used to.” She waves a hand, her fingers trailing fire like sparklers.

“For one, the elementals you’re familiar with are only a fraction of the types that exist. There are sound elementals, and steel elementals and even stranger beings that are made of… I suppose math is the only way to describe them. The reason for that is that everything on the elemental plane is alive: the mana diffuses into the world at such a rate that it constantly creates more.”

Miki stares with rapt fascination as Cauldera continues to speak. “For most elementals, life is actually very brief and violent. Those that are born from the ether are tiny flashes of existence that prey on one another for their mana, gradually growing larger and stronger: sometimes surviving but most of them don’t.”

“The oldest and most powerful of us are beings so vast, you would hardly recognize them as alive. When a fey says something like ‘Root and Stone’, those are the forces they’re calling on.” Vivian smiles at this and nods in confirmation. “Many of them are in constant conflict with one another, but they do so through ever shifting alliances and unions. The result is chaotic and wild, but ironically even more static than life among the fey.”

The baker tilts her head, her ears flopping to one side, “Why’s that?”

“Because the slightest wrong move can undo centuries of balance.”Cauldera sighs, “Everything happens on a timescale that most mortals can’t even comprehend.”

Sounds kind of sad and chaotic... It's very gladdening such wonderful elementals like you two are here and (relatively) safe now. Maybe in a few centuries or something some other spirit mediums undead and fae will get together to help make more of a peace between such massive powers.

So, do elementals treat the mortal realm like a ls neutral ground, effectively lawless for better or worse? Can they enter freely, or do they have to be summoned by a mortal first? Cults can definitely start that way.

Could Casey be considered to have been cultivating her own elemental, or group of elementals, within her body? It would explain why her powers tend to be temperamental in nature. They even settled down when she did right by Flashing Feathers, like they were sympathetic to him.

here's a stretch, does that mean the moon might be an elemental? are the winds just one big elemental or a collective winds? is my soup alive?

Can't even imagine..
But you're here now and isn't that something to happy about?

I wonder why only a fraction of the elemental types enter our plane, or is it only rare that a "math" elemental does so (and is noticed)
it feels weird (at least I imagin Miki would feel so) that both elementals and fey seem to have some preference to this plane, when the reverse is mostly untrue

>>1078189
Looks like Gabe's enjoying the big ol flame lizard pressing him into the grass.

The question is how complex the overlying conflict is. Generations of black-ops agents warring over a childish spat between two overgrown gods is nothing honorable to write about.

So, Wraithe and Cauldera had to fight for their lives as kids, but it was a natural process for most rather than an endless war for some.

The Elemental Plane and the Perception Range from Awful Hospital are the same place.

Hrm, didn't we come here for a reason?

“So why do elementals come to the mortal plane anyway?” Miki asks.

Across the grass, her husband looks down at the mouse beneath him with a suddenly self-conscious expression: his cheeks taking on a white-hot blush. Gabe’s eyes go wide as something as-yet unseen catches his attention and he starts wiggling excitedly.

“All kinds of reasons.” Cauldera explains, “For some its a kind of neutral territory with which to conduct business. There were a few powerful ones who built kingdoms here, but without a stable source of mana most of them returned to their home planes. For me, I just wanted to see something new.” Her hands run idly through the grass as she talks, the blades tickling at her molten fingers.

“Well then, could I ever visit the elemental plane?” Miki continues, all the while hoping she’s not bothering the phoenix.

Cauldera smiles back at her, seemingly just enjoying the chat. “Not safely. You’d need much more than a fire ward to survive there. Even Fey visitors require lots of preparation and magical protection: just about the only ones that can travel freely are angels and they’re pretty rare.”

Oh, you know Litany, maybe they could help? Or is it not really something they have the ability to provide to others? Traveling the elemental plane sounds neat, though admittedly from the description it sounds kind of chaotic.

Gabe seems to be having fun. Miki might get to enjoy some boy love in a moment if things keep going on like this.

makes me ponder the hows and whys of angels, that they can go there and be intact

not that we are going to be finding the answer right now, seems like Gabe got Raithe's "blood" pumping down there, and Vivian has certainly noticed their tussling, the plants may not be her but the ground is

Oh, we know an angel. So if we ever needed someone to go there, we know who to ask. Actually I forget if we can contact them at all.

And in response to my earlier question, we don't have a reason to be here do we? It's a day off. Though, we could technically ask if Vivian has any info on the First Guardians, or knows anyone who could give us some info.

Aw c'mon Gabe, you know you gotta ask permission before gettin fucked by someone's husband! Unless of course you've already made an agreement with Miki that whatever happens happens

What makes angels so special? But any who, if there's anything you guys could do to make their time on the mortal plane more enjoyable, you'll be glad to help where you can, right?

Good thing we happen to know one who's free and untethered by any fey contracts or loyalties, and is a good sweet friend (potentially with benefits).

Oh no, Gabe is being attacked by a dragon. Better get the lube.

Miki should probably notice and go have a quiet chat.

>>1078832

Raithe sits up, the red tip of his cock peeking up from behind Gabe’s tail. He tries to cover it with his hands as he looks around, flushed with embarrassment. The salamander locks eyes with his wife, who giggles at his plight; giving him a wink and a little nod of encouragement.

“That reminds me, I wonder how Litany is doing…” Vivian muses; her tails wagging as she watches the flustered salamander.

“That’s the angel you and Gabe met, right? The one you set free?” Miki asks, trying to split her attention between Raithe and Vivian. “What makes them so different from other fey?”

Vivian clear her throat and explains, “They say that angels were the first our kind: thought to be a kind of transitional step between elementals and fey. What is certain, is that their ability to survive almost anywhere and travel the in-betweens of the world makes them valuable as messengers. So much so, that only the oldest and most powerful courts employ them as servants.”

A lump bobs in the elemental’s long neck as he gulps anxiously, feeling like a fish out of water. There’s a soft rubbing under Raithe’s shaft as Gabe tucks his knees up under himself and grinds gently against the dragon: slowly drawing him out to his full length.

Relaxing a bit, Raithe lets his hands rest on Gabe’s hips; his claws slipping under the mouse’s waistband and sliding his shorts down. His thumbs rub little circles in the sender’s fur as curiosity replaces embarrassment. Gabe’s ass isn’t as soft as Miki’s and his fur coarser, and instead of her fluffy, curly tail, his is thick and surprisingly muscular. And there, where the bare skin of his tail meets his fur is an eager little patch of pink: waving excitedly at him

Might need some prep down there, buddy! You are after all, a full sized salamander.

Makes sense that the fey were derived from the elementals. How do you think the first angels and "elves" were created? Or made, if they case may be? Do you think you can get in touch with Litany?

Let's see how long we can keep a serious conversation going, before anyone else gets the urge to start "doing like they do on the Discovery Channel". As his ex, Cauldera must be getting exceptionally flustered.

I mean it's right about common knowledge that there's a web of who's fucked who in this group, but Cauldera is pretty much no different! But if it does make her uncomfortable, maybe she could be accompanied to a different room

What happened to the other two mice?
my my, fucking in a fey's heartspace sure is something, makes me wonder if Vivian is down for some lovin, too. Perhaps Vivian could have some fun with Miki and Cauldera!
we can try to keep a half serious conversation going, maybe a question about why this layered world, if elementals became fey then fey become as and so on, though at this point only The Fates would know for certain

“Do you need me to prep?” Gabe asks, trying not to break the flow of things, “You know: lube and stuff?”

Raithe gives him a bashful glance and admits, “Oh! No, that stuff doesn’t really play nice with me, even while warded. I usually just, uh, kind of make my own.” He rubs his dick experimentally between Gabe’s ass-cheeks and a thick droplet of raw mana leaks out, easing the friction.

The mouse smirks and props himself up on his elbows, bracing for whats next. “Well then, go ahead big guy. Don’t keep me waiting…”

The elemental runs a forked tongue over his fangs and angles his shaft into position, letting his weight push the tapered tip past any initial resistance. Gabe moans happily as he’s slowly spread by Raithe, his hands gripping fists full of grass as he's filled up inch-by-inch.

“Oooh, that brings me back.” Cauldera sighs, looking on at the show. “He tries to be so gentle at first.”

“I know, right?” Miki giggles, “Its very sweet.” She shares a knowing glance with one of the few people to have had Raithe as a partner. “I always have to remind him to go harder.” She shuffles a little as her arousal grows, pressing against the tight fabric of her pants.

The baker glances at her hosts: on one side of her Vivian watches with rapt attention, one hand tucked under her dress and slowly rubbing back and fourth. Opposite her, Cauldera lays back on the grass, her thumb rubbing in circles around the curve of her breast.

“Uh, heh, so if fey descended from elementals, and I guess mortals descended from fey: does that mean there’s something descended from mortals? Like, why is everything layered like that?” Miki asks, trying to keep the casual conversation going, even as she sees where things are headed. Her heard races and her head spin as she tries to keep from babbling. The baker feels excitement gripping her but feels suddenly out of her depth and unsure of how to proceed.

“Mmm- Its one of the great questions, and there’s many theories about such things.” Vivian responds, catching her breath as her tip raises the hem of her dress. “Are there places even further from the Sea of Dreams than the mortal realm, with less mana and no natural magic? Much time has been spent debating what life would look like on a plane like that; if it could even exist. It seems... unnatural and alien.”

She continues, tilting her porcelain muzzle skyward as her pleasure builds. “Ah- of course, such thought goes both ways. There was a mortal philosopher named Rutattezen who theorized that there might be some place beyond the Sea of Dreams: a great untergeisterwelt. To get there would mean passing through the great collective source of mana. However, its unlikely anything could make that journey and survive: at that point even the spirit loses its sense of ego and breaks down.”

The kitsune looks down at Miki and pauses, “I’m sorry, I must be boring you with all of this talk. Please, as your host: would you like to join us?” She asks, twitching aside her dress in an invitation.

Oh, actually please continue on Rutattezen! A place where something's spirit would break down in... then how about something without a spirit? like a machine?

But of course, an expeditious handy can come before some handy exposition!

we wouldn't be asking questions if we thought you were boring!
though, we could never decline such a open invite

Not boring at all. Philosophy and horniness pair great together. You could listen more from herall day.

On the other hand, be curious about what bird breasts feel like. Would they make for nice pillows? Try them on your head.

>>1079014 Given that the Elemental Plane 2 higher has literally everything be alive due to mana density, I doubt anything trying to go there wouldn't have a spirit. Maybe the power of Love could hold a spirit together?

>>1079013
Seems you're the last one without your goods on display Miki. Shouldn't stay overdressed in situation like this. Show off what raithe has had all to himself.

Are undead technically descended from mortals? am I just crazy trying to think of them as perhaps a legitimate category potentially worthy of not-scorn

Either way, there is no reason not to continue mixing interesting discussions with sex it makes it hotter.

When in Rome, Miki. Hot knowledge and a hot show.

“Oh, its not boring! Its just- uh, hang on a second…” Miki pauses to shimmy out of her pants and slip free of her panties. The baker tosses her shirt aside and sighs, “I wish I had worn something a bit more flattering, but I didn’t exactly expect this to happen... Although, maybe I should have at this point.” She says, casting an eye over towards Gabe as her husband drills him.

Vivian smiles and pats the ground next to her, “Come, won’t you show me what else those hands can do?”

Miki bites her lip and scooches closer, reaching out uncertainly at first. Her shaking fingers wrap around Vivian’s shaft, feeling her pulse beating in the palm of her hand. The chinchilla stares, still in disbelief, and pumps back and fourth experimentally.

Vivian moans and bucks her hips up into Miki’s grip, encouraging her to go further. The baker nods to herself and starts getting into it: letting years of dough kneading guide her in the simple, repetitive motion.

She looks up, taking a moment to experience the closeness with the beautiful fey: watching her expressions and listening to her voice as small pants slip past her lips. Miki takes a deep breath and a gentle, earthy scent fills her senses: like leaves kicked up in an autumn forest.

“Uh, so… tell me more. About this… under-ghost-thing you mentioned.” She insists, deeply fascinated by this whole experience.

“Ah! Well, what do you want to know?” Vivian asks.

“Um… could something that isn’t alive pass through? Like a machine or something?”

“If only it were that simple. The Sea of Dreams imbues life into anything that enters it. Mmm- it’s why the elemental plane is so chaotic. Its thought that even matter begins to break down when exposed to that much mana.”

There’s a shuffle behind Miki and she looks to find Cauldera sitting there. “Mind if I join you two?” The phoenix asks.

Okay there's definitely an alternate universe out there where Raithe never broke up and Miki became an ascended fangirl

Orgy time

Actually, Cauldera should check on the other guests. They'd like the extra company, and do like to keep things fresh with their fun. Has she ever thanked them for helping with the molting?

Hey Miki, there's a way to keep an eye on your hubby, practically sharing longing gazes with each other, while satisfying your host. Sit down and think. It'll come to you.

She's more than welcome to join, of course. Just keep working that dough.

I am certain neither would mind Cauldera joining, maybe Miki could ask for a thought from her in this beautifully strange mix of philosophy and fucking, what's an elementals view on this?

it does make some sense matter begins to break down in the sea of dreams, it IS the realm of, among other things, the dead

Ooh Miki working out all the tension in a big celebrity, has to be a lot of tightness in that kitsune! When's the last time she had a real good massage?

“S-sure!” Miki responds, before staring straight ahead with a glassy-eyed expression. ”This isn’t happening, I’m just having a dream, right? I’m just fantasizing about being sandwiched between two hot women and talking about the structure of the universe”. she tells herself.

Miki’s quickly brought back to reality as Cauldera grasps her hips and pulls her into her lap. The chinchilla gasps as the elemental’s rigid cock rubs up against the base of her tail. The firebird reaches around and cups under Miki’s balls, gently massaging them back and fourth as Cauldera’s thumb teases the base of her shaft.

“Oohh, you’re so cute and fluffy! I can see why Raithe was so smitten.” Cauldera giggles in Miki’s ear. She finds her head cradled between a pair of breasts, wreathing her in a halo of soft, shimmering plumage. “You know, personally I think there’s something down there, past the sea of mana.”

Miki wriggles in place, her head swimming from the stimulation. “Ah- l-like what?”

“No idea.” Cauldera chuckles, “Maybe the Fates know, but it might be what made the planes in the first place. Something vast and powerful.” Her hand traces up to caress Miki’s cock between impossibility warm fingers.

“Ah! Ohhhhh… Vivian…Cauldera…” Miki feels herself getting lost between them and simply asks, “Don’t stop… please.”

Vivian chuckles to herself and stands up, out of Miki’s reach. Red silk pools on the ground as she slips out of her dress and lets her shaft bob freely. A hand comes to rest on the back of Miki’s head and the kitsune asks, “Very well. If you’d like, we can dispense with the pleasantries.”

A few feet a way, Gabe braces himself against the turf, pushing back against the thrusts of the eager dragon. Part of him is surprised by how light Raithe is, but it makes sense considering how rarely the elemental ever touches the ground. Still, his shaft is nice and thick: reaching deep inside his body and leaving behind a slight tingle of mana-infused precum.

“Ah! Yeah! Th-that’s it!” He says over his shoulder. “Give it to me harder!”

Something catches the sender’s eye and he looks over at Miki being cradled between Vivian and Cauldera.

“Oh, hey! Look who’s having fun, too!” He nods his head in their direction.

Raithe follows his gaze and his eyes widen. The salamander’s jaws split into a molten smile, panting raggedly as he feels his temperature rising. Seeing his wife attended to by two beautiful women, one which his ex, does something to stoke an internal fire never felt before.

Oh my, is Raithe discovering a voyeuristic side of himself? Of course, anyone would love to see the girls having fun!

Mana doesn't exactly seem massive... at all, and elementals are mostly mana, so there's not much there to be heavy
stoke the fire and feel its burn, fucking destroy Gabe, Raith! Stoke them into fucking Miki as hard as she likes too, if seeing her simply toyed with like this lights a flame, than what will seeing her rode by cauldera and her face occupied by Vivian do?

Imagine asking the Fates the nature of the universe is one of the most commonly asked questions. Ah well, eyes up everyone. There's live shows for all of you.

Nomf his ear. Let the squeaking commence.

Miki turns her attention away from Vivian and Cauldera for a moment to check in on her husband. To her shock, the baker finds him staring with an intensity she’s never seen before: a gaze she could only describe as smoldering.

She pauses, Vivian’s shaft inches from her lips and shoots him a questioning look ”Are you okay with this?”

Raithe nods back, slowly, his eyes never leaving Miki’s.

The chinchilla smirks and leans in to nuzzle Vivian’s cock, keeping her eyes trained on the salamander as she does. Her tongue snakes out, getting her first taste of the kitsune as she traces the shaft up to the tip.

Cauldera cuddles her close and murmurs in her ear, “Ohhh, it’s been a while since I've seen him like that.”

Gabe chuckles, reaching up to drag Raithe’s head next to his. “Ah! You like that big guy? Seeing Miki have some fun too?”

The elemental doesn’t respond immediately, instead panting in his ear as little flames begin to flicker at the corners of his mouth. When he does speak, its with the low growl of a hungry beast, "Yesssssss..."

The sender is distracted by something wet landing on his shoulder, only to find that Raithe is drooling: a trail of long, golden magma dripping from between his fangs. “Heh, you alright back there?” He asks, only for the dragon to flap his wings and buck into him, knocking him off balance and forward into the soft grass.

“Oof! Okay, you’re-“ Gabe begins only for Raithe’s jaws to clamp down on his ear, causing the mouse to let out the most embarrassing cry of pleasure ever to escape his lips.

“AiiiiuuAHHhhuuh!” He warbles, ass in the air and face flushed bright red. His hips rock back and forth as Raithe begins railing him; the long draconic body uncoiling and flexing like a whip being cracked.

Oh damn, unleash the dragon. Hold on, Gabe. Vivian, enjoy the show.

Cauldera was holding back the Gossip from Miki? Shame! tell us!
perhaps getting Casey and Kol withing line of sight and miki going down on vivian will get Raithe going even more

Okay, so what I’m wondering is, what happens to Gabe once he gets a massive infusion of mana courtesy of our dear drooling dragon? We’ve already seen the effects on Miki (spontaneous strengthening of innate magical abilities) and with Casey (magical trance with development of previously unknown magical techniques, thanks to Flashing Feathers). Especially given Gabe’s unexpected badassery against golem in the last chapter, I’m really excited to see what he’ll be capable of once Raithe is finished with him. Here’s hoping Kol doesn’t end up feeling like the odd-one-out…

“You’ve seen him like that before?” Miki asks between licking and nuzzling Vivian. “I’ve never seen him so intense.”

Cauldera giggles as her ex continues to pound the mousey twink into the carefully manicured lawn. “Raithe doesn’t like to show it, but all draconic elementals can be kind of… possessive. He’s very shy about his nature and comes off as a big sweetheart; but part of him wants nothing more than to bend you over and claim you as his own right here.” Her fingers trace delicately up the curve of Miki’s back, sending her dense fur into a shiver.

Miki looks over at her husband, her brow knitted with worry. “Are you sure he’s okay with this, then?”

Cauldera nods reassuringly, having spent many years as Raithe’s partner. “He wouldn’t have given you the go-ahead if he didn’t trust us. Just be sure to show him plenty of love when we’re done and remind him who you ‘belong’ to.” With one hand, she lifts Miki’s thigh up, lining her up with the phoenix’s hard cock. “In the meantime, why don’t we give him a good show?”

Sounds like the hidden secret to ass destruction is "I am yours"

ooh, is Raithe claiming Gabe here? There's a lot of teasing potential here

Raithe stares through a reddish haze as the baker is lifted up and slowly speared on Cauldera’s shaft. Miki’s moans reach his ears before being muffled, making him snort little gusts of flame. Something inside him seethes volcanically, demanding to know what they’re doing to his wife, while another part of him feels nothing but excitement from watching two beautiful women pleasuring her. His heart flutters as Cauldera winks at him while bouncing Miki’s ass in her lap: the two loves of his life together, stoking his flames higher.

The conflicting emotions roil inside the elemental, driving him to fuck the squeaking figure in front of him even harder. Raithe hangs on to the mouse-boy’s ear in a savage mating bite, his hips shaking and battering him like a rag-doll. He plunges deep, feeling the sender’s tailhole clutching at him, his legs struggling to hold himself up under the pounding. Gabe is tight and warm around his red-hot cock, and he babbles incoherent mewling as the salamander works him over.

The mouse feels his body struggling to accommodate the savage pounding as he’s claimed by the dragon. Gabe’s eye’s flutter as his cock is slapped up against his belly and paints his chest and chin with white streaks of cum. His whole body shakes like a tree in a storm as he empties his pent up load all over himself; the constant fucking keeping him rock-hard in spite of the mess.

“Having fun there?” Asks Kol, his cock tapping against the sender’s nose playfully. “Should we show him who you belong to?”

>>1079470
Oh man, is this going to be total sensory mayhem? Good luck, Gabe. Remember to breathe.

Have raith drool lava all over him. We want to make aftercare fur brushies mandatory so he won't melt as soon as he leaves the warded space.

Kol fucking the same person as Raithe is dominating literally in front of his nose will sure be fun for the two of them, is Casey off to join the girls then?
Have Raithe growl and vibrate Gabe some too, the opportunity is too perfect

Miki takes a deep breath as Cauldera pushes forward, filling her ass with phoenix cock. The chinchilla falls forward onto all fours while she’s taken at both ends by beautiful women. Soft hands reach down to hold her in place, fingers pushing through her dense fluff to caress her curves.

Miki’s fur muffles the sound to a gentle “pap-pap-pap” while Cauldera begins thrusting, bouncing her forward into Vivian. The baker feels the tell-tale tingle of elemental pre-cum leaking inside her, setting her body ablaze with sensation.

“Root and Stone, you're good at this!” Vivian exclaims as Miki’s tongue twists and coils around her cock.

The chinchilla blushes a deep red at the praise, responding with a surprised “Mmph!” as the thick shaft slips in and out. Miki is given a moment to breathe and she pants, “Ah! Th-thank you! Raithe really likes the way I give head.”

The kitsune cups her cheek with long, pale fingers and thrusts forward again. “Mmm, so many talents. No wonder he adores you so.”

She looks back over at her husband, finding him bent over Gabe and pounding in a frenzy while Kol takes his mouth. While Caulder and Vivian are careful and soft in their lovemaking, Gabe is worked over: the pair seemingly in a competition to see who can fuck him senseless.

Miki’s suddenly distracted as another figure sprawls on the grass next to her . “Hey there.” Casey says, “Mind if I get in on this?”

Wherever she can squeeze in, I say.

The kitsune and the tentacle mistress in an orgy? Practically criminal this hasn't happened yet.

You know where Casey could be? Just below Miki. I'm sure she wouldn't mind being plowed by a cute chinchilla and being used as a cushion for the fae and elemental.

“Ah! Uh- sure?” Miki responds, already blushing from all the attention. Vivian and Cauldera pause their spit-roast so that the chinchilla can reposition herself by climbing on top of Casey.

As Miki aims herself at the mouse’s opening, she pauses. “You’re still not ready to… uh, you know?”

“Not yet. We’ll call this a dress rehearsal. Okay?”Casey grins, spreading her legs to embrace her friend.

They both gasp as Miki pushes forward through her folds, sinking deep inside. The baker’s warm fluffiness covers Casey like a blanket, and she holds Miki close as their hips bump together.

The chinchilla rocks her self in and out experimentally, feeling Casey’s slickness easing her passage. “Oohh, so that’s what it feels like.” She says with a satisfied sigh.

“You’ve never been with someone with a pussy?” Casey asks, giggling warmly.

Miki laughs, “Well, no one that I’ve gone all the way with. Mmm, you feel nice…”

“Glad to be your first, then.” Casey hugs her friend close as Cauldera and Vivian take their positions at either end.

>>1079636
A day of many firsts, it seems. Hope everyone is ready for this rocking! Don't lose your senses.

New experiences!! Miki's gonna have to have the chance to do this with Casey some more, clearly it's an underexplored activity for her. The good news is that everything is going swimmingly here.

If you can't make your first time gentle, make it fun and memorable. Viv probably understands that well. Try to synchronize with the other threesome, so that both groups climax around the same time.

A proper dress rehearsal would have Raithe provide the chaser*, but he's busy with a different performance he should finish first and a spitroast is hard to co-ordinate. He should alternating his thrusts with Kol properly, so that Gabe is never without.

* In theory, one of Casey's eggs could be spliced with either donor's DNA.

Miki closes her eyes, feeling Cauldera slip back inside her as she finds her rhythm. The thump-thump-thump against Casey’s hips is driven deeper as the firebird matches the chinchilla’s pace. The elemental’s glowing fingers curl elegantly around the curve of her hips, dragging Miki back into Cauldera’s thrusts again and again. Casey reaches up from underneath her and spreads Miki’s ass in a double hand-full, easing the passage of that red-hot shaft into her tight tailhole.

Vivian leans in, her teeth gleaming in a satisfied grin, as Miki and Casey take turns bobbing and licking at her shaft. “Ohhh, you two work so well together! Ah! Yessss.” One hand strays to her own breast: kneading and toying with herself as she’s serviced by the pair. They occasionally pause to entwine their tongues and kiss hungrily, only to dive back to pleasuring their host.

Casey lays back and cranes her neck so that she can nuzzle and lap at Vivivan’s shaft and balls. She giggles drunkenly as Miki is driven up into her: the warm fluffiness of the baker making it feel like the binder is being fucked by a cloud. While lacking in the length or girth of Casey’s usual partners, there’s an electric thrill to being taken by someone who’s normally so sweet and timid.

Gabe rocks in place, trying to stay on his hands and knees. Kol pushes forwards, past his lip while Raithe keeps up his steady hammering from behind. Caught in a Newton’s cradle between them, the mouse does his best to keep up with the constant motion.

Having already cum once, his nerves feel like they’re on fire. And yet, after spending a night being healed by Delilah, he feels incredibly pent up and eager for release.

The thick shaft under his tail slams up to the hilt inside him, grinding against his entrance and angling against every wall. He moans desperately around Kol’s cock as the tip bumps against his prostate, rubbing a tingling coat of mana-laden pre-cum over it.

“That’s it. Take it…” Kol murmurs, holding the mouse’s head in place so he can fuck his mouth. He drives himself in deep, stopping short of throating his partner; letting Gabe work his tongue along the underside of his shaft.

Even half-drunk from all of the dicking, the mouse’s skill with fellatio is remarkable: keeping his long incisors angled away and forming a tight seal with his lips. The slicked-up cock works in and out in an easy sawing motion; Kol trying to time his thrusts opposite to Raithe’s rhythm.

“Mmm, you like that?” Kol asks conversationally, “Been a while since you got it from both ends. We ought to do this more often. We should have Caleb over, see you can handle what he gives me.”

All this talk of sharing makes Raithe grip Gabe even tighter, his claws digging furrows in the manicured lawn as he redoubles his efforts. His exertion has him snorting and growling into the mouse’s ear as he takes Gabe from behind.

There's something to be said about a dragon's horde. Don't be afraid to get your hand on the other side there, Kol. Play with Gabe's other ear.

Wanna take a guess at who the fox is aiming at? She'll know the right moment to fire her cannon.

“Oh, did I strike a nerve there?” Kol teases, locking eyes with the growling salamander. “Well, if you want to claim him, you better be ready to leave your mark on him!”

He reaches out and grabs Gabe’s other ear, feeling the sender “mmph!” through a stuffed mouth. Using the hand-hold, Kol speeds up his thrusting, keeping the sender steady as he really fucks his face. “Ah! Come on! Let’s see-hah- who claims him -hah- first!”

Raithe growls, picking up his pace in order to match the challenge. His dick reams the mouse hollow: slipping in and out as Gabe’s shivering muscles struggle to handle the pace. Concerned only with finishing as fast as possible, the elemental clenches his teeth as he feels himself nearing the edge.

Gabe feels the tell-tale tug of the dragon flaring inside him and moans a warning of his own climax.

“Yeah! Yeah! Gonna cum?” Kol pants, feeling his balls tap against the sender’s chin. “Come on! Take it!” Gabe’s tongue spasms around his shaft, swallowing and gasping for air as he’s filled from both ends. “Nearly there, buddy!”

It all crashes to a halt, starting with Gabe. The jackhammering against his prostate tips him over the edge, bucking him up into Raithe’s hips as he spills cum down his legs. “Aaaahhh! Ah! Ah!” Unable to hold on, he cries out as his whole body shudders in ecstasy.

As he does, wet saltiness fills his mouth and spatters against his face. Through a pink haze of bliss Gabe watches as Kol’s balls tighten against his body; his hand clutching the base of his shaft as the medium paints his load all over his whiskers. The mouse swallows what he can as Kol swabs his throat a few more times, ensuring a coat of white across every inch of Gabe’s tongue.

Just as things seem to have tapered off, Raithe slams to a halt inside him. The sender’s eyes go wide as a liquid fire fills his insides, sending him over the edge again in an instant. Behind him, the elemental rears back, roaring flames as he leaves his mark deep inside Gabe’s well-fucked tailhole. The magma colored liquid quickly runs out of space and spills out of him, dripping down his balls in a cascade of pure mana.

Quick grow boobs

Oh no! Raithe really left his mark, huh? Hopefully that doesn't affect how sensitive it is.

I wonder what special effect this will have on Gabe, getting pumped with that much pure mana. Just look what taking a load from Flashing Feathers did to Casey

“Looks like the boys are busy wrapping things up…” Vivian pants, bucking her hips forward as Miki and Casey take turns servicing her. Her body aches for release, full of little pre-climax shivers as her muscles tense up. “Let’s not keep them waiting!”

Her delicate hands guide the two partners faster, pushing them until they’re throat-deep on the kitsune’s shaft. The pair work their tongues over every inch, trying to keep up the pace as her balls tighten against her body.

“Ah! Ahnnn! There we go!” Vivian’s voice hits a high, melodic note as she climaxes, lowering in tone as the satisfaction of orgasm hits her. Her cock pulses in Miki’s mouth, splashing against the back of the surprised chinchilla’s throat and coating her tongue.

Casey switches with her, slipping the tip inside and pumping her hand along the shaft. She’s rewarded with a groan and a fresh flood of cum: painting her mouth white and leaking around her lips as she sucks greedily.

The last few dribbles spatter onto the pair, who giggle as the Vivian makes a mess of them both.

Who's next, phoenix, mouse or chinchilla?

“My turn now. You ready?” Cauldera asks, speeding up her pace.

“Yu-uh!” Miki manages before being driven up into Casey by the phoenix. The baker hangs on tight as her fluffy ass is pounded; her eyes rolling back from sheer bliss. Her own cock sends back desperate warning signals, buried deep inside Casey and ready to blow.

The mouse grabs a double handful of velvety fur, spurring her on as the three bodies ratchet towards an ending. “Yah! Fuck! Come on!” Casey pants while Miki’s dick slams into her g-spot at just that right angle. The frantic intimacy between the two friends sends an electric thrill down her spine, setting her fur on end.

“Ahhh! I can’t hang on!” Miki warns, her voice squeaking like a string in tension.

“Do it! Cum in me!” Casey commands, feeling how ready she is.

Miki goes mute, her hips slamming to a halt inside. As she floods Casey’s pussy with pent up cum, she finds her voice and collapses onto her friend. “-A! Ahhhhhhhhhh!”

Even as the baker finishes, Cauldera grips her hips and keeps pistoning: her blazing shaft hammering against Miki’s aching prostate. The elemental grins, feeling the tiny chinchilla tighten around her as she buries herself up to the hilt inside. “Ahh! That’s it! Take it!”

The first jets of liquid mana hit her insides and Miki doubles over in ecstasy. Her whole body shakes as another orgasm rips through her so soon after the last.

Behind her, Cauldera hisses like steel being quenched as she fills Miki’s tailhole. The excess cum erupts from around the tight seal and beads on her fur in little glowing streaks. The chinchilla’s eyes roll back and her body shudders as she collapses in a fluffy, blissful haze.

That is a shame but also reasonable. Maybe a sauna, though?

Most excellent stuffing

A pale hand reaches down to help her sit up, “There we go. Are you okay?”

Miki tries to answer, but is interrupted by a gout of flame traveling up her throat. Before she can control it, the excess mana roars out of her in an inferno, wreathing Vivian in a blaze of crimson.

The kitsune falls back in surprise, her fire ward glowing as it shields her from the heat. She clutches at her throat for reassurance before relaxing.

“Oh Fates! I’m so sorry! I couldn’t stop it! Are you okay, Vivian?!” Miki stammers. Her hand flies to her mouth, covering it in case of further outbursts.

“Wow… that was… beautiful.” Cauldera remarks. Her cock shifts inside Miki’s sensitive tailhole, clearly aroused by the sight. Nevertheless, she slips free of the baker and sighs dreamily, “It reminded me of the first time Viv and I met: with her singing wrapped in foxfire.”

“Ahhh! I’m sorry! Its all that mana! The same thing happens whenever Raithe… Oh shit! Gabe!” Miki’s eyes go wide as realization hits.

oh yikes. might not be the best time for fire after the magma gate. That heat could stir some bad memories.

Oh no, is this a mana overdose? If there's a time to call the healer, now would be it. Given the urgency, Delilah won't mind a house call. There are worse reasons for the fae to kidnap someone.

A water elemental to absorb the excess mana might help too, if Casey isn't up for it.

How does a mana surge affect a sender..?

>>1080703

I don't think it's the fire they gotta worry about with Gabe, it's a supercharged Sender that's gotta find a way to burn off all the raw mana he's been pumped with, lol

>>1080716
Agreed. He's... well, he could try using the mana to form a gate blade? Everybody give him room.

>>1080716
He's going to try to release into as many partners as he can at one, isn't he. Maybe even at the same time, some how. Holy f***.

Gabe pulls himself off the ground, struggling to control his limbs as energy courses through them. “Ah- ah-ah… oh fuck…”

Miki and Casey help him up and look him in the eyes, which seem to glow from within. “Gabe, are you okay?” Miki asks.

“Ah! Feel full… can’t think…” He manages.

“Gabe, you’re charged with mana! You need to burn it off!” Casey tells him. “Open a gate somewhere! Make it as big as you can!”

The sender looks around and grimaces, “Ah! Not enough room… Might cut someone… hang on…” he closes his eyes and focuses.

He extends a hand and opens a gate about the size of his palm. Inside the ring of light is an absolute blackness speckled with impossibly bright stars. Wind howls, tugging at Gabe’s mantle as air is pulled through the portal.

where even- is that space!?
WELL, I suppose connecting something that far at Minimum from within a Heartspace should burn a lot of mana fast

The good news is that the rate of air going out is one atmosphere, nothing but air is getting sucked out, and there is a LOT more where that came from; this being a super big problem is totally a myth from fiction. That said, don't get too close to the portal anyone, alright?

>>1080799
Make sure the gem on Vivian's choker doesn’t get sucked through the portal! If the gem gets sucked out, then the fireproof ward will disappear and everything inside Vivian's heartspace will accidentally be set on fire by the fire elementals, which will give Vivian a severe case of literal heartburn!

ah shit. Making a gate into space is impossibly dangerous, use the other sender spell! Ward up! Or instead of making one big gate, try making a series of smaller gates in rapid succession, like slices. The former is probably the better idea, but do one of 'em quick!

Actually I wonder, what would a supercharged ward do? It could make a really big one, but what if Gabe made a ward so potent it manifested a real object?

If only we had a drone...
Well? Try to make a drone thing.

>>1080799
CLOSE IT

>>1080819
>what would a supercharged ward do
Well, wards usually keep spirits out, so a supercharged one might push away everyone except for Gabe himself.

Hopefully it’s not powerful enough to accidentally push the elementals back to their elemental plane.

Does it take more mana to open and hold a gate to places that are farther away? If so, this might not be a bad option to hold for a little while in order to burn off the excess. If we need something more, then it might be prudent to open a successtion of portals.

I'm also intrigued by what this suggests might be possible. If Gabe gets spitroasted between elementals both fore and aft, could we make it to the Moon?

If you have (or can conjure) anything that could plug it (e.g. a board), you should plug the hold instead of closing it, so Gabe can keep discharging mana.

Be curious enough to look, but not curious enough to get close.

>>1080834
That's not how it works, the edges of the gate are dangerous. Remember, that's how Clio lost the top of her ear!

>>1080817

Again, air isn't RUSHING OUT crazily fast, you aren't in a super extreme high air pressure environment, you are at normal air pressure! There isn't NO danger, but it isn't so extreme.

>>1080839
Clio's portals were unrefined since she was self-taught. The edges of a stable portal are... uh... I think they're mostly safe once the portal is finished opening.

“Gabe! Close it! Close it!” Casey warns. Slapping his hand down.

The sender’s fingers close into a fist and the light disappears with a tiny thunderclap.

“What was that? Where did that gate go?” Casey asks, shaken by the sight.

Gabe shakes his head and shrugs, “I just reached out and opened the furthest beacon I could find. I don’t know where it was."

“Those stars, they looked like when we were on top of the highpeak. Wherever it was, the air was thin too.” Kol remarks.

“What, like above the world? Out in space?” Casey cocks her head in disbelief and asks, “Why would there be a beacon out there?”

Gabe looks just as confused as her as he scratches his head “No idea. Senders are forbidden from making space gates. Apparently everything in space is moving really fast and gates are more or less stationary. “ His fingers trace the edge of his earlobe and his eyes shoot open, “Ah! What happened to my ear?!”

>>1080873
>His fingers trace the edge of his earlobe and his eyes shoot open, “Ah! What happened to my ear?!”
Raithe gave you a little love bite during sex.

A good excuse for an earring, seems like. It should be fine, if nothing else you know a healer.

Funny though. Could there be a beacon that far out because of Guardian sssecretsss? What purpose would such a thing even serve? Surveillance? …hiding spot?

Wraithe bit too hard. Heal it.

I don't think that can close up, I imagine healing magic has it's limits. But it looks mad cute on a rambunctious fella!

but if there's a space gate and not a beacon on top of the mountain; does that mean there's a gate out in space? I'll hazard a guess and say there's a moon base

How does it feel? Does it hurt at all? Looks pretty clean for a cauterized hole.

I'm not sure we've ever heard the details on how beacons are formed--I was under the impression that every Sender made their own beacons, and wasn't aware that a Sender could use one created by someone else. If someone left a forbidden beacon out in Space, then that might be a clue worth keeping in mind as we poke our nose further into the past. If we can do some math and figure out where it is, then we might want to remember to try to see when this space portal was opened the next time we use the scrying machine.

But why would someone not just open a forbidden portal into Space, but set a waypoint there? What would keep someone going back to the endless void? (I'd be quite tickled if it really is on the Moon. Especially in an age when magic was ten times stronger, it might not even take a mana injection from an elemental to get the juice to go that far.) This is probably something to alert the Academy about; they might want to remove the beacon, because it's forbidden, and if they don't, it's probably because there's some special reason it's supposed to be there. As ascendant Guardians, we might be trustworthy enough to be informed of why.

Also, I'm sure when Raithe sees that he's left a hole in Gabe, he'll feel bad and be apologetic. Gabe should say he'll call it even as long as he gets to top next time.

>>1080873
Raithe left his mark on you. You better not heal it.

Why would someone set a beacon in space...? Well, one possible reason is they put something important out there and somehow kept it from floating off. Or used it to dispose of something, but why leave a beacon? Maybe it was a temporary prison for something and then whoever set the beacon forgot to remove it, or died before they could?

Do we know anyone that could go through and look around safely? I guess we could just tie a rope to something sturdy and have someone go through. Though, we might want to do that somewhere with less air pressure, or... are there things such as airlocks?

Another possible reason for a beacon in space is to use the space portal as a weapon. To suck up your enemies, or at least get them stuck to the portal. I get the impression that would be a bit dangerous for the Sender, though, since they'd be close to the portal themselves. Oh, one last reason is to use it to remove vast quantities of water or lava from a location.

Who wants to bet that space beacon was made by Moot herself? Back in the age when Sender magic could be a lot more powerful than it can be today. Gabe probably never would've been able to connect to it without being supercharged by raw mana. In any case, I have a feeling the question of "why is there a beacon up there" will become very very important.

I imagine Hekal and Moot did some pretty wild experiments with Sender magic as he was helping her codify and refine it. That beacon could very well have been one of them, to test the limits of what she could do.

oh and if it takes a massive surge of mana for someone to make a portal massive, does that mean that mean moot was "charged" like gabe just was?

Raithe got a bit nippy, but you look cute as fuck with that there just FYI. If you don't like it, miiight be a good idea to gets some poodle based help

>>1080916

She may not have needed a supercharge. Magic back then in the Wild Age was a lot more powerful than it is now. Just look at the Claíomh Solais. The one Clio can make is a lot smaller than Moot's, apparently because the magic has diminished. It stands to reason that Moot, or any Sender she taught in that time period, wouldn't have needed a boost to make gates that no Sender today ever could without assistance.

Kol eyes the new perforation, “Looks like Raithe’s mating bite was pretty serious; though all that mana he was drooling seems to have healed the edges. “ He reaches up and pokes at it experimentally, “Does it hurt?”

“Not really…” The mouse slips a pinky into the gap and tugs at it. “Just a little sensitive, I guess.”

“I’m so sorry!” Raithe moans while hiding his head in his hands. “I- I don’t know what came over me! Are you okay?”

“Oh, I’m fine. I just didn’t expect that from you, of all people.” The sender blushes, still feeling a bit hollowed out by the rough treatment. “Uh- yeah, to be honest, it was… kinda hot.” He admits.

Miki rounds on her husband and shoots him a look of smoldering interest. “I’ll say! I've been wondering how to get you to go rougher on me. Next time, I get to be in the middle.”

The salamander holds his tail in front of himself bashfully, “Uh- if- if you’d like… heh.”

“Only if you feel comfortable with it, dear. We’ll talk about it later.” She kisses him on the fiery cheek and chuckles, “My big, greedy dragon…”

>>1081122
Honestly, there are worse (and less sexy) ways of getting your ear pierced.
Gabe should get a big, gold ring to put in it, or maybe a pin shaped like a salamander.

Fashionable and on point for the sender!

Yes, now's the time to compliment Gabe on the new look, and speculate about fashionable applications for the new hole. Vivian and Caldera might be able to make less orthodox suggestions with Fey inspiration.

Out of curiosity how sacrilegious would it be to wipe the cum off the bottom of his tail with his sender robe

If the ear hole is healed and now (probably) permanent, Gabe should look into getting a ring for it, now that he's got an ear piercing

Methinks the baker is asking for further affection from her "greedy dragon". Raithe would be more confident as a Dom if he studies on how much mortals can take before serious harm is done. Not that there's anything wrong with being a cinnamon roll. That makes for good aftercare.

Gabe must have gotten a lot out of his system, and not just mana. That must be enough a relief for his closest buddies to give, at least, a hug. Really, there should be More cuddles. More cuddles for everyone.

>>1081152
Kol should help with that. With a towel, not his clothes. Definitely not his tongue.

“How exactly do beacons work, Gabe? I’ve never really learned about them, other than that Senders use them.” Casey asks.

“Oh, well, they’re pretty much our most basic spell. Like gates, they’re not really an object: they’re more like an invisible reference point in space. We usually place them somewhere that’s considered safe and with plenty of room so that nothing around gets cut by the gate.” He replies, still touching his ear experimentally. “Its mostly a way to make blind jumps safer.”

“Mmmhmm, and you can use beacons other people have created?”

Gabe nods, “Oh yeah, its how the Sender gate network functions. There’s a trick to focusing your mind and they stick out like… well, beacons, I guess. ‘Course you can’t tell where they lead to like that: it just gives you a direction and distance. We use ley-line maps to use the ones we aren’t familiar with.”

Vivian appears carrying a tray with a tea set and places it on the lawn for the mortals, “I thought we could use some refreshments after all of that. I must say, I haven’t had that much fun in a while!” On the tray is a simple earring crafted from reddish gold, which she hands to Gabe. “I thought this might suit your new piercing.”

“Oh! Are you sure?” Gabe asks, feeling the mass of the little golden lump.

She waves a hand dismissively, “Take it, I have far too much jewelry as it is. Once you get to be over a hundred, you have to be willing to let go of little treasures or they’ll clutter up your life.”

He fits it into place with a little help from Casey and moves his head around as if testing the balance. The added weight tugs at his ear slightly, lagging behind his movements like a memory of Raithe’s jaws. The thought stirs his cock again slightly and he blushes as he thanks Vivian.

Nice, a proper handle to tug for that ear!

Everyone gather around and get refreshed

>>1081280
>Gabe confirms that it's possible to use beacons created by others
Then who made the beacon that Gabe used with his portal earlier? There has to be a reason why someone put a beacon out in space, right? There's no way it was put there by accident!

Do Beacons last forever? Seems like there should be rather a lot of them considering how many Senders there have been over the years.

While taking refreshment, Kol and Casey should sit on either side of Gabe. They're still sort of welcoming him back after yesterday.

And in that vein, this trip is about relaxing and taking a day off. Whatever mysteries lie behind the gate to space, they can wait. If Miki is too shy or star-struck to talk to Vivian directly over tea, the mice can break the ice. Gabe especially has an in to ask about things Miki might be interested to hear about Vivian's life and career.

They sit down to join her while waiting for the tea to steep. The grass is cool and soothing on their over-worked bodies, so they opt to stay nude for the time being and enjoy the casual atmosphere; cuddling together in a post-orgy haze.

“While we’re here: we wanted to ask you something, Vivian.” Casey remarks, “About Rodwin.”

“You mean the branded fae controlling the bargast?” Vivian sighs. “I’m afraid there’s not much help I can give. Fey are forbidden from giving any kind of aid to a devil, even if I do sympathize with him. However, I’d be happy to offer any kind of general help you need.” She over-emphasizes the word and subtly tilts her head, as if tipping her hand for the mouse.

Honestly, we mostly just need information and advice rather than direct assistance at the moment. Though it's good to know that Viv is willing to provide the latter if need be. We just have to go the long way around to asking for it, without it being directly and fey-legally for Rodwin.

So we know that sometimes, fey get a magical brand that marks them as a devil. But sometimes, even after being so branded, they can still have noble intentions are serve loyally.

Supposing, just for the sake of argument, that such a devil served with great devotion in a conflict a few hundred years ago, and was still loyal to his leader and his cause, how do you think finding out that that leader had betrayed him and the cause all those hundred years ago would affect that devil's ability to continue to funnel substantial quantities of mana into a hungry mana sink?
