[God Quest] So anyway -

Hotaru

Deep dive into the dark
Masked eyes as you pick me apart

Even their presence has foreplay, a sweet promise of something more to come that inspires the same anticipation. Hotaru’s spine stretches as her throat bares, showing off for a presence she doesn’t see but doesn’t need to. As her head falls back it lands on Frey’s shoulder as if it had always been there, and she turns immediately to kiss lazily at the herald’s throat as if she can drink the hum of each spoken word straight from the source.

“My pleasure is yours, and it pleases me to see you wear it more than my own reflection.” There is no courting to be done here, she is Frey’s and - as much as could be - Frey is also hers. Yet the smoke in Hotaru’s half-lidded stare and the sultry shape of her flattery as she slides a hand languidly up the inside of Frey’s thigh harbors intent that implies there is still something to be won.

“Didn’t I?” Hotaru blinks innocent eyes as she presses forward into Frey’s trailing touch as the herald shifts in front of her, encouraging their fingertip to drag against the pitiful string holding her top together. A good businesswoman, the Valkyrie notes the touch to the bag at her side before considering it a forgettable thing, eyes riveted to Frey’s androgynous face. Her beloved takes most of Frey’s shape, but there are distinct feminine edges that turn the herald into a golden, powerful visage of androgyny and seduction. “You can bless those in a blink, and I’m not so crass as to ask for something new at the same time. Bloodlust, power, mewling masses…a fine line to walk between self-indulgence and chaos, and I know what side I prefer to fall on.” Frey’s, not Dygra’s. Hotaru’s visions are too premeditated to be called chaos, but she is careful to sow her seeds in Frey’s garden only, called to heel by only them. “And until I ask for assistance, those plans are too narrow and human for you, don’t you think?” Frey hasn’t seemed interested in mortal plotting like the other heralds so far at least. If she is wrong this time she will be all ears, but for now…

Hotaru lifts her hips just enough to try and tilt Frey closer overtop her. “So yes, I did come for you to strip me bare. Will you make me ask for it?”

Your body melts into my skin
Baptise me and I'll be your sin
