fifth ☕✨ tinder / moonlacing mingle!

[cadeuces]

( Ping! Your profile needs updating, there's hot singles in your area, it's a swipe frenzy— you all know the push updates with dating apps, right? Maybe you need to brush up your Chroma to buy a place in Amegahara and it just sounds like it's worth a shot, or someone gets ahold of your device and "helps" you along. Upload some new selfies with that new Moonblessing of yours, drop in an About Me, and get to swiping!

And Please— someone please come up with a better name than Prismates because the moons alone make sure we're more than just mammals and no one's obligated to do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. We all know the drill by now, don't we? Swipe right or left, yes or no, mark yourself down to moonlace and flirt or just rile a friend up with a big red X— try to include an opening message! Happy Hump Day? )

Get hurt?

I am not a fragile man, I assure you.

[ragingnature]

My strength is already greater than most mortals, combined with Sanguis...

If the fact that I could probably break your arm like it's a twig doesn't deter you I guess, well, there are some things you should know that are probably better discussed in person.

[ She doesn't expect this to actually go anywhere, not when how she's reacted to things with Fjord. If anything it might just drive him off, which she might be more afraid of than hurting him. ]

[dragonfall]

[ ...that is more of a concern than he had originally assumed. ]

You have so little control over your own strength...?

Have you given any thought to training yourself first? You could hurt yourself or others, to say nothing of what may be done while laying with someone.

[ragingnature]

Sometimes. It doesn't happen often but it could and I don't want to hurt you or someone else if I happen to...react badly.

[dragonfall]

I can train you in control.

In intimacy, my suggestion would be to pleasure yourself first. Become comfortable with that before you do aught else.

[ragingnature]

[ Gods this is so embarrassing. ]

That's not the issue. Granted I don't...very often because when I do my apartment ends up covered in flowers. Which, as you can imagine, is a pain to clean up.

The problem is I was hurt by someone before I came here. I don't know if you training me in control is going to help with that.

[ And that's why she wanted to talk in person. ]

[dragonfall]

[ Hurt by--

Estinien stares for a moment at the small words on the screen of his device, the light from the screen illuminating the slow, slow frown that comes to his lips.

Hurt by someone.

A little time is taken before he answers. ]

I can help you control your strength, to keep it yours instead of allowing it to overtake you.

For the rest...I do not know if I can aid you.

[ He knows what kind of man he is. At least, he believes he is not the kind of man capable of the gentleness that this woman needs. ]

[ragingnature]

[ She figures as much. She doesn't believe there are many around that have the patience to wait for her to heal and she doesn't fault them for that. ]

Okay.

[dragonfall]

[ He looks at those small, glowing letters for a time, and then replies: ]

I apologize for my insensitivity earlier.

When may I come to meet you? So that we may begin.

[ragingnature]

It's okay. It's not like you could have known.

I'm free any time outside of Sanguis and the Moons. So whenever works for you will likely work for me.

[dragonfall]

[ It is not okay. He does not think himself a sensitive man, but even he knows it is not okay.

He frowns, but keeps the rest of what he has to say to himself for now. ]

In a few days, then.

I will call you.

[ragingnature]

[ It's not okay what happened to her but she's forgiving enough for something like his words when he didn't know. It's not like she shares a great deal of personal information about herself very often. ]

Okay. Is there anything I will need?

[dragonfall]

No.

...refreshments, perhaps. Things to make you feel comfortable.

[ragingnature]

Okay, got it.
