He has a very nice place. A shame you don't get to go in often.

[Not that she's been in there for sex. Rather to have tea and plot against Sylvain but that's another story entirely.]

I'm not lying to you at all, dear. I really do have the costume. I got it a month ago for a party.

He does. He also seems to like my bed better.

[And... well, if he's at Sylvain's place then he knows for certain that it's on Felix's terms, and he still has weird hangups about such things.

You know. Nothing to worry about.]

But you aren't a cat, Manuela, though I'm certain you make a very cute one.

[Because. You know. Iris.]

[You boys and your issues. She pats his arm sympathetically but at least doesn't say anything. They'll figure things out. Eventually.

Hopefully.]

Sylvain dear, it's a costume. Not a moon based identity. A friend suggested I try it since I already do the rabbit every month. And you remember me mentioning Engie right? Well I wanted to catch his attention.

[...Hopefully.

Unless one of them gets sent home. Then they'll have to start all over again.

But her taking his teasing so seriously does make him pout lightly down at her. Really, he wasn't serious! But the gossip about the costume itself makes up for it, at least.]

I do. And It either did catch his attention or he's blind, I'm sure.

[Sylvain, she's trying to get you to pout on purpose. And it's working. The fact that she smiles when she sees it says as much and she looks like a proud peacock as she looks the way they're walking again.]

Well of course it did. I know you've seen me, dear.

[He knows she is... and honestly, he lets her have it more often than not, because she's really cute when she smiles like that.]

I have. And I'm going to be seeing a lot more of you today, right?

[A lopsided grin and a wink down at her, because yes, they have already done quite a lot, seen each other naked, the whole nine yards, but experimenting with new things was different, and would probably show new sides of both of them.]

Exactly. You're the one I know would be interested in trying something new.

[Which is half the fun really. And luckily before long they reach their destination. Stepping inside, Manuela immediately looks so fascinated by the utter variety to be found within. Bondage and fetishwear and dildos and vibrators...

Goddess she's going to have to read the labels on some of these to know what they are.

Obviously the costume section is off to the side but she does keep to what she said before and makes her way to the toys first.]

Would you grab a basket for us, Sylvain? Thank you!

And why wouldn't I be?

[They're here in this strange sex-fueled universe, after all, so what's the point in not trying new things before they're sent home? A point could be made that they might end up finding something they like that just... doesn't (or can't) exist back in Fodlan, but...

Well, then it would just be a fond memory. If they even remember this place at all.

But that's a thought for another day, when they're not in the middle of a massive sex shop with - as the attendant very enthusiastically tells him - a sale going on.

So he grabs a cart instead of a basket before going back to join her in an aisle.]

Will this do~?

Oh yes! And did I hear that there's a sale too? That'll be nice for getting more.

[She dumps several dildos in with different sizes and textures and so on into the cart. She's currently looking at beads right now. There's just so many kinds!]

Go ahead and start grabbing things too. We'll just take advantage of that sale since we're here.

[She pauses and looks at a glass set.]

Oh. These are actually quite pretty.

You did hear there's a sale~

[Because they totally need the incentive to buy half the store. It just means they won't need to work nearly as hard to earn it all back again once they inevitably do.

He really can't help but laugh when she's already got an armful of things to dump in the cart when he gets back - he was only gone a couple minutes!! - though maybe he shouldn't be that surprised, considering as soon as he ducks into the next aisle to start looking he immediately finds a few things.

An intimidating-but-not-impossible dildo with a mechanism to inject lube into you so it can feel like it's cumming? Available in an array of textures. Of which he picks a few that look appealing. A line of strapless "strap ons" in varying shapes and sizes and vibration patterns and textures for both ends? One of each, all the better to figure out which one is the best for both of them.

He's also just lucky that he's tall enough to see over the racks to what she comments on.]

They are. There's not a lot in here that seems to be aiming to be pretty first, you have to admit.

[...Though to be fair, function is the primary object with all this anyway.]

I think I prefer functional. It would be too much of a shame to use these.

[So they get put away in favor of looking at some anal plugs instead. These seem very interesting and she's finding all these things that vibrate to be fascinating. Because that's sure to feel very good for whoever gets to have it.

Oh wait. And they have things that...inflate? The future is really a wonder. She dumps more of those into the cart before continuing down the aisle.]

Sylvain dear, how interested are you in nipple play?

[It's a fair question considering the things she's looking at.]

Too much of a shame to have to keep them hidden away, too.

[You know, for the more polite company the both of them keep, considering the relative shape and size of the things. Some people might be able to keep them out to appreciate the artistry, but...

Not many, he suspects.

And really - "whoever gets to have it" can and, likely, will be both of them at some point.]

Mm... why wouldn't I be interested?

[...Okay, to be fair, he's known a few men who weren't interested by the simple virtue of nipple play being, apparently, just for women? Stupid. If it feels good, it feels good, simple as that.

And he's gotten to a section of toys that... move? Things can wiggle like fingers or undulate like tentacles in addition to the standard vibration functions, and, really...

The future is fascinating.]

I just thought I'd check.

[Well in go some vibrating clamps as well as some weighted ones. Though she'll see how perky his nipples get. It's possible they may be better for her. One never knows until one tries after all!

Humming to herself, she dips into the next aisle and...]

Sylvain! They have machines for sex!

[It probably shouldn't be as surprising as it is but it's just not what she was expecting to see okay.]

[They may be better for her, or they may not, depending on weight and, you know, movement. Or they may end up being unpleasant for both of them, or they'll have to get creative. Who knows! That's the fun.

But her exclamation immediately has him ducking into the same aisle, because there's no way... right?

...But no, she saw right.]

What the hell...

[And now there is a man and a woman from an ancient fantasy era standing in a sex shop and staring at a row of sex machines on display. From ones you can strap a partner into to ones you can sit on to ones you can sit in front of a chair or at the end of a bed. And with all the various attachments.

Manuela stares for another moment before going closer to have a look at them, leaning over as she watches one of the display ones move to show off what it's capable of.]

It has different speeds this says!

[She's in shock.]

[A man and a woman from an ancient fantasy era who, by their standards, are very, very, overwhelmingly experienced in The Ways Of The World... and have just discovered something Very New.

Sylvain stares for a moment longer than she does, before looking at the ones on the other side of the aisle.]

And this one has different thrust depths... And this other one has both options, and is, apparently, programmable. Or can be controlled with your phone.

[He's also in shock.]

That one has both?

[She comes over to look at the one that he's checking out. Sure enough it does. She blinks when he mentions the phone though. They both barely understand their phones already and now they can control this machine with it? That smells like a disaster.

And yet she's still intrigued...]

What attachments are there? There's mention of different ones...

Mmhm.

[It does. And it also makes a big deal about how easy the app is to use. He... believes it, to an extent, but it's still a marvel. He's not sure it'll ever stop being amazing.

It's a little less difficult to believe if he just thinks of it as magic, honestly.]

Looks like they're on the shelf under it...

[And he crouches down to get a good look - quite an array of different sizes and shapes, but one in particular catches his eye.]

Apparently this is an adapter so it can attach... almost anything, even if it doesn't have the fancy specific base for it.

I think we should get it. I want to see what it's like.

[Almost anything. That's very handy actually. Manuela likes the look of it and grabs the card that says to pick it up at the front and present this. That's useful. Sure they have a cart but at least this way they don't have to lug it around.

She tucks that into the top of her dress since she doesn't have pockets and goes to look at one of the others.]

Oh. You sit on this one. Apparently it has attachments too.

Oh, good, I do, too.

[And while she takes the card, he tosses the attachment in the cart, along with a couple other standard ones, because... well, they seem less fiddly than trying to put something similar into the adaptive one.

Ease of use, and all that.

Besides, it isn't like they're strapped for cash.]

Oh? That one looks interesting, too. It mostly just vibrates and can rotate, it looks like.

It says it's powerful but I don't really know what that means.

[You know, nothing to compare it to. She looks at the demo one and glances for how to turn it on. Oh. A remote or an app? Well that's versatile. She looks at it come more before picking up the remote to turn it on.]

Oh.

[That's quite a loud buzzing sound now isn't it.]

I assume that's why it's ready to test, right?

[Because he's not really sure what it being powerful means, either - just, in general, and also compared to other things. So when she turns it on and it's very loud, he... goes one step further and reaches out to touch it.]

...Oh. I think we ought to get this one, too.

Really?

[Well now she has to reach out and touch it too. The vibration makes her fingers tingle and she gasps at how strong that is. Even without the attachments she sees that being quite the thing.]

Yes, I think so.

[Excuse her while she grabs another card to tuck in with the other one because yes please?]

So... what kinds of attachments does this one have, other than the couple it comes with? Do you think we ought to get any of those, or...

[Or is the basic "very intense, very strong vibrations" enough?

...It's probably enough to start with, but also he's gotta ask.]

It seems like attachments for penetration. Likely to stimulate inside as well as out.

[She lifts one of them up so that way he can see what she's referring to. Because obviously they're getting the machine since she has the card for it. But the attachments?

That's up in the air still.]

I'm not sure if they're even necessary really.
