[It always seemed like people were more eager to return to their worlds, but Rey wasn't. Not ever. She'd arrived with a nasty wound that went from her chest and out her back that she's fortunate she didn't bleed out when she first woke up in the crystal forests on an alien moon. Self-cauterization and an unrelenting will was all it took to survive, even if she had spent days evading the Moon Knights out there that had no intention of doing her harm. She'd went from one situation where she had been hunted to another and wasn't so quick to trust authorities at the time.

[Even now, she isn't sure she'd consider it trust so much as a mutual understanding. Long as she's here, she makes the most out of a shitty situation, but it also comes at the cost of not really belonging anywhere. But that's hardly anything new to her -- she'd always been alone that she got used to that, too. So much so that she surprised herself with the particular selection she'd taken interest in during her aforementioned visit to a "novelty" store.]


Well, ah...

[Rey pauses, rubbing the back of her neck at first before holding her arms out, offering to take the basket from Konoha. If they're talking about this now, then she wants to stay busy. Help!]

Th-there's a lot more stuff, for... for couples. That... That both women can... enjoy, at the same time. [Because she can't say that she didn't feel something when she had felt good while making Konoha feel good, but the harness didn't seem equipped for mutual pleasure. Rey hadn't expected that there would be kinds that are.

[Lunatia is a weird place. Everyone is so open about these things, and Rey is still getting accustomed to it all despite having been here for a year now.]

[Considering it's Rey, there probably isn't enough time in the worlds for her to finally get comfortable with the idea. At best she's been adapting, if only out of necessity because she doesn't like the feeling of turning to crystal very much. She still remembers how close she's come to it a few times, and... Nope.

[Grateful to at least have something to hold, she takes the basket from Konoha with ease, carrying on like there hasn't been an exchange of weight or bulk whatsoever. It's clear Rey could do a lot more than just that and she's eager to do something with herself again.

[Squinting at the gesture Konoha makes with her fingers, it takes a beat before Rey interprets the unspoken meaning.]


Oh! It's... Kind of? More like...

[Okay, how would she describe this to herself if she were more technologically illiterate.]

They've got d... dildos, that go both ways. And, ah... harnesses, like the one you had, but with an... extra thing on the strap, for the wearer to... feel things, too. You know, during...

[You know.]

[Whatever kind of action Konoha is trying to depict with her hands, Rey isn't even sure anymore. Chalk it up to being something more for the other woman to work her way through it than for her.

[Fortunately, Rey gets the gist of it, even when Konoha is using a really outdated way of looking at it. She just sucks in a sharp breath at first.

[It's okay, it's okay, Konoha's just a product of her era or whatever. She doesn't mean anything, by it.]


S... Something like that, sure.

[Save the soapboxing for another day.]

Haven't tried anything like that myself, but it seemed... interesting. [Yeah. Let's go with "interesting".]

[It's easier for Rey to accept some of the old terms and perspectives from the people here; she hasn't come across anyone else from her world here, let alone her own timeline. While she hasn't forgotten how things are where she is from, she's built up an acceptance.

[Besides, it's not like Konoha has an issue with Rey's apparent preference towards women. Not that she had ever reflected on her said preference towards women before, so Lunatia had been good for one thing. Gave her a lot of time to do some soul-searching with few convenient distractions.]


Guess so...

[Silence. In an awkward attempt to build up the backbone to speak what's on the tip of her tongue, Rey bites her lower lip. Her hands are occupied, okay?]

Well, didn't get any stuff like that when I was there but, um, if you need... [Goddammit.] If your... condition hasn't changed, by tomorrow... Just... if there's no one else you can ask, or would rather be with, or whatever...?

[Fuck. Now she's the one turning redder.]

Don't... really have anyone to try those kinds of things out with, is all.

[And she's become a little more open to giving those new experiences a chance, at least once.]
circumitus: (such a sad story.)

[Innocent and harmless as the question might be, Rey's expression turns crestfallen as she tries to occupy herself with some physical work. Holding the basket up for Konoha to start picking clothes out to hang up herself. Such an old school way of dealing with laundry, but Rey catches on enough to set the basket down between them and start doing her own share of the work.]

There was... someone. [She scoffs despite herself.] Stupid, though. Wasn't even here for very long, but... we got all those memories, from what's supposed to be years from now? And it was just-- That shit felt real, you know. Being happy, for a little bit. She... She'd even proposed?

[Rey's lilt in tone sounds like a question, but not one that can be answered by anyone. She knows a lot of people had their share of future memories, of seeing themselves happier after living in this world for so long. Something Rey could never have dreamt of before. That feeling as though she'd made a home for herself here still haunts her sometimes. None of that was actually real in the end, was it?

[Absentmindedly, she keeps her attention focused on her task than looking Konoha in the eye while she speaks.]


So, um, no. Haven't really found anyone else. Not like that.

[Konoka may be willing, but Rey has concerns about coming off as needy or pitiable that she hasn't been able to let down her defenses like she had with Konoha. For someone whose skin can't even burn, she might be playing with fire when it comes to setting herself up for emotional vulnerability.

[She just nods, taking the response for what it is -- as neither a yes nor a no. So long as Konoha knows the offer stands, Rey isn't one to press the matter.]

[Far be it from Rey to press anyone on what would be "easier" than what they're used to. She's often roughing it in the woods, and has found herself having to wash clothes in a similar manner when all she has is a pond or river. There are a lot of things she could be doing that's easier, but simply chooses not to.

[She grimaces, occupying her hands with the laundry as she considers Konoha's question regarding the future that so many of them shared. So she still has her own too, just like the handful of people Rey had spoken to about the subject.

[What made those memories feel more real was how wasn't all sunshine and happy times. Rey saw herself happier, sure, but she was also recovering from a series of mental breakdowns as well, and she remembers all of that just as vividly as her "fiancée".]


Guess so. [She shrugs, not feeling very persuaded.] Or it could've been just one cruel joke of something I could never have. That's... happened before, too.

[Better to be realistic than to get her hopes up. At least, that's how Rey has always seen it. Pretty sure her future therapist might've had some choice words about that outlook as well... Rey blinks hard, shaking her head.]

I don't... deserve those things... [The way she says it, it sounds more like something she's just convinced herself after being told such things for so long. After having it so ingrained into her system that she struggles to believe any different.]

[Rey hadn't spent much time around pregnant women. Or at all, for that matter. Her lives had always been more about death than birth. But even she has some sense of recognition in Konoha's gesture, especially in knowing how strongly she wishes for a family of her own.

[In that, Rey could never relate. It's enough just trying to take care of her own damned self, let alone someone else. The thought terrifies her, but that's probably why people like Konoha exist.]


Never been able to stay in one place for long. Ten years seems... a bit much. [She admits with a scoff.

[It's one reason why she's never settled in one place at Lunatia. Sure, it'd be convenient, but the anxiety of getting too comfortable, too complacent, only to just lose it all eventually anyway stings too much.

[Doesn't help that two places Rey had ever considered home had been decimated by biological and chemical warfare. Could the third time be the charm? Maybe. But she doesn't want to risk cursing this place too, irrational that the thought might be.

[At Konoha's threat, Rey just side-steps away with a handful of clothes. Her face blanches as she already regrets speaking those words that had been ingrained in her skull for so long. They're not pretty things to hear out loud, for anyone. Not even for those she had hurt back home, who would've had every right to agree, but for some reason didn't.]


S... Sorry. [She runs a hand down her face, before glancing down at what turns out to be a pretty cute kimono in her hand. Freshly clean and soft in her calloused hands.

[It'd be nice to wear one of these someday, if she can ever find an excuse to...]

[While Rey could be considered more "educated", even she is grateful not to think about it whenever she can. It already lingers in the back of her mind, all the what ifs and what could be. Sometimes it hurts. Others, she's just numb to it all.

[By the time her attention tears away from the fabric in her hand, Konoha has mercifully changed the subject. Rey stops, glancing over at her and blinks.]


Oh, um. Not... really. Seen people wear all kinds of different clothes in the cities, but nothing like this. [Pause.] And... not everyone dresses like me, either. Just prefer simple most of the time.

[For all the Asians Rey has met in Lunatia, it's a shame she never ventured into that corner of the globe before. It might've been nice to even learn some of the language and the like.]

[That's why Rey prefers Level 3 in general. The bright colors and lights of the upper levels of the city don't appeal to her like the shadier streets below. Some of it is familiar, some of it is just being able to deal with angrier locals that are sometimes foolish enough to try and pick a fight with a bionic tank woman. It was one way of being productive with her Sanguis aggression when she really just wanted to fight someone.

[But also, yeah, she liked the clothes and the drinks better down there.

[Rey's grim visage turns amused at the mental image of Konoha dressed like the upper level Prismals, mentally agreeing that it doesn't suit her, either.]


Mm. Had a similar problem.

[Obviously Rey favors more earthy colors more than neons and rainbows. Makes her feel less noticed when she wants to blend in, even if she's in a sea of more colorful people.

[After a moment, she pins the kimono up on the line.]
Never really wore anything like these before, though. Always looked like you had to put them on a certain way and didn't know how.

[She'd seen them being offered at past events, but Rey stuck to dresses whenever she could.]
circumitus: (and i will never be the same)

[personal profile] circumitus 2020-11-27 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't wear many zipper things, either.

[Most of her pants have zippers, but it's hardly complicated. Dresses are a little more difficult to put on by yourself, especially with a physique like Rey's. Finding fancy clothes for her build can be tricky, she's found. Which is unfortunate; she doesn't mind them from time to time.

[Finishing up her end of the laundry hanging, Rey glances to Konoha, a hint of a smile on her.]


Yeah... That'd be nice, actually. [Rey doesn't advertise the fact that she likes such types of clothes and social events, but how quick she accepts the offer is... telling, probably.

[Festivals, dresses, music. They're all things Rey never participated in before this place. The future she saw might just be fake memories cruelly implanted into her head like so many others here, but she could maybe try and replace them with real ones whenever she can.

[Better than drowning in the chiding noises of her head, trying to pull her back from happiness with words of what she does and doesn't deserve. It's always easier when she has distractions which, thanks to Konoha, Rey now has. For now, anyway. She'll offer her hands around the farmstead for a little while longer, catching Konoha if she falls while trying to do her normal chores.

[Eventually, she'll excuse herself back into the city. Her offer still stands if Konoha's... condition lasts much longer, but Rey doesn't suspect she will.]

[Ah yes, a username that doesn't leave much up for speculation. Rey doesn't sleep much and has been killing time at a bar on the upper levels when she gets Konoha's text.]

yeah whats up?
need help at the farm again?


[Rey knows what the day is, but maybe Konoha is too distracted by Iris to get much work done.]

[Is this... Is this a booty call? Rey almost spits out her beer.

[Of course, she was being serious when she made the offer, and still is. But, just to be sure:]


wait
does this mean youre still humanish?
that why youre asking?
