Lily chapter. I still regret nothing
----
Lily was clearly hesitant to answer this next question. Kat could feel it. Not just that, but she could feel through the connection that there was an answer. Kat hesitated as she pondered what to do. She was trying hard to let Lily feel comfortable opening up to her and feel less embarrassed all the time. Would it be better to push? Offer reassurance? Do nothing? Eventually Kat settled for lightly running her hands through Lily's fur. Approval, hope, slight expectance. All without any words to cement her stance properly.
Eventually, after sufficient application of scratches, Lily caved. *Ok… I… I don't know if this is racist? Species-ist? Maybe just weird? But I also kinda want to see you in like… what we think Succubi would wear. Leather straps and little else. I mean… I'm not into… THAT side of thing. I mean, I'd call you mistress anytime you wanted but no pain for me. That isn't something I like.*
[Tell me more about this one then. The bunny outfit makes sense and I can see why you'd like it. The maid costume as well because of Callisto wearing one all the time and the kimono… well that one just makes sense to me even with my limited understanding. What about this one drives it though?]
*Hmm… how do I explain this… I guess… it's much more… wish fulfilment I suppose. Before you became a demon I'd never have asked. Imagined yes… and… I guess I'm not as ashamed to admit that as I thought… but anyway… imagined yes of course, but I didn't think I'd ever see it in real life even if we did date. That and fake horns, wings and tail would just look a little weird and since domination isn't my fetish…
Well it just seemed like a lot of work to essentially see you in revealing underwear made out of leather. So it was in the 'cool to think about, but silly to do' category in my mind. Like getting covered in chocolate or slime or something. Hot to imagine… kinda gross in real life more than likely. Now though… well you're a real demon. Now it feels… I guess it feels a lot less like silly dress up? You don't need fake props because you have real demonic parts and that makes it so much better. Plus I bet you could find a proper outfit someone in the Hub without too much trouble. So… now it's something I wouldn't be opposed to in real life.*
[Oh, 'wouldn't be opposed'] taunted Kat slightly to get Lily to just admit…
*Fine. I think it'd be hot. You asked for this though! You asked for what I'd want to see you in!*
Kat gave Lily a little kiss on the cheek. Just a light press to avoid fur in the mouth and get the point across. [I did and I don't regret asking Lily. I'd like to keep talking about this sort of thing if you will. It really is interesting to try and work out why you'd want something like that, and I can make a list. With perfect recall I won't forget and I can surprise you with something in the future.]
*Oh*
Kat waited for Lily's thoughts to stop drifting to various strange places. She didn't get many images though she did get brief flashes of her in a made outfit, as well as covered in chocolate. Kat chose not to comment. While she did want Lily to be more open about her desires… she didn't want to push things too far just yet. Despite her calmness about this sort of thing, she too believed they weren't really ready for all that.
When Lily finally came back to herself, she cast a worried glance at Kat who just smiled back. Lily assumed this meant Kat saw nothing. She was wrong of course, but it was a nice thing for her to believe for now. *Um… ok… what else… I guess… it's much lewder than the others but I guess if you want me to mention it… stockings. Like just stockings and nothing else.*
[I'd have assumed you of all people would prefer to see all of my legs]
Lily swallowed heavily but chose to answer properly. *Well, yes sometimes. However, I can appreciate stockings as well. You don't really wear them, which is fair, it doesn't get too cold here… but I think it'd be nice. Not all the time, but if we're talking about interesting things I'd like to see you wear it probably counts.*
[So, stockings, what about garter belts and just normal lingerie]
*No garter belts.* Snapped Lily with a shockingly firm mental voice. *I can't understand the point of the damned things. I don't know why people think they look sexy at all. It's all this extra material and it doesn't feel tasteful at all. I did a bit of research about them and I STILL don't understand them. I don't get why people think they look sexy at all. I mean… nope. I don't want to rant at you about this.*
*We're having a nice discussion… albeit an embarrassing one for me and I do not want to yell mentally… not even at you, but in your direction about an article of clothing I doubt you even own. I doubt you'd want that.*
[Honestly Lily. If you really want to talk about it. I'd be happy to listen. That's what this was about remember? Getting to chat. This wouldn't be the first odd thing you researched.]
Lily smiled internally. As a cat smiling externally showed a lot of teeth now so she limited that. *Ok… well… in that case… I guess it's because people still like them for some reason? I mean there whole purpose in life is to hold up stockings, which… ok fine, back in the day that was somewhat needed. The thing is…*
*They aren't comfortable. At all. I'd know, I tried on some once when Mum suggested it after going lingerie shopping a few times. They just… feel weird and we don't need them anymore. Even back in the day before elastic they had other options, though nobody likes to talk about them. The best one, in my opinion, was to just… use a bit of string and tie the top off same as pants.
Still, I don't get why people think they look good. Like I get fancy underwear. It's to show off and entice instead of just being naked. It has… a bit of class to it rather than just showing up naked or something. Plus almost seeing someone naked is sometimes better then just seeing them naked. The problem is… the garter belt is just more material, it's finicky to put on, finicky to take off carefully, uncomfortable to wear and underwear does the teasing so much better.*
[Feel better now that you've gotten that off your chest?]
*Yeah, a bit. Sorry for ranting about it. This is something I knew before I met you. I actually brought it up with Stella and her friends once and they looked at me like I'd told them wearing underwear outside of pants was the new fashion trend. So… yeah little bit more… distaste alongside that one on top of the topic.*
[It's fine. I've never really looked at them. Kept things simple because bras are expensive, especially for an orphanage where that money could usually be spent better then on high class underthings. Especially when I was the only person they were really for. Most of the other girls were too young for them. As the oldest it was easy to chose basic stuff when the younger ones could use the money.]
*Was the orphanage really that poorly off?*
[No… no… not at all. I mean, I couldn't get top of the line stuff all the time or something like that… but Gramps manages the place well. He also gets a decent number of donations. We were never all that hard up for cash but you had to pick your luxuries you know? Like would I prefer nicer underwear or for the kids to get new blankets? Sure the old ones work fine, but some of them could get a bit ratty towards the end of their lives so if that bit of saving let them get new things more regularly… well I never minded.]
*Well… you've got Vivian now. You can get some proper underwear!*
Kat shrugged. [I uh… didn't exactly put on a bra when I first got my demonic attire. I wasn't thinking about it… but now I have one. Somehow. Not sure where it came from, or when it showed up because being a Succubus means it wasn't really an issue… but yeah… now I have great feeling and fitting underthings and no idea where they came from.]
*Kat how could you forget something like that?*
[Well it's not like I put on a bra all the time when I wasn't going to school. I probably should have but that was more washing for everyone… and really I always felt it was strange to make the little kids wash my underwear when it was their turn so I normally did my own stuff throughout the week and then didn't wear bras on weekends if I could get away with it so the kids wouldn't get confused or do silly things with them]
*Kat. When I get my human body back.. I'm forcing Vivian to take you shopping.*
