London

[Bloodedge]

And so, the pair of them would sleep. It was rather early still, nightfall yet to be upon them... but Ozzy was apparently exhausted. The amount of relief he felt was ridiculous, so he was out like a light atop Nikki's bed, his grasp on her person unwavering through the night. It wasn't until about four in the morning when he woke. It was a bit early, but he felt the rumble of his stomach right away. Ah, that was the statement he left unfinished, though he didn't remember failing to complete it. All he could think now after waking up, was that Nikoleta was still in his grasp. Oh... that had all been real, not just part of his dream? He'd have let out quite the excited utterance if not for fear of waking the lass. 'Blimey, I thought I'd gone mental,' he thought.

Something had to be done about this hunger situation. At four in the morning, room service was hardly an option; he had to go out. Carefully, he slid himself out of bed, mindful to place Nikki atop the pillow as gently as humanly possible. Ozzy would locate the clothes he'd left at the front door, and slip his way out. There were so many things he wanted to do, but this breakfast situation would be holding him up. How many places were even open? Either way, he'd have to find somewhere before heading back to his own suite to collect a few things... like clothes, and some other items he intended to share with Nikki. Sadly, he couldn't realize that he seemed to be sneaking out after a one-night stand, since he hadn't actually finished saying what he planned on doing in the morning. Worse yet, finding food would take much longer than he anticipated. . .

[Apollymi]

Nikki had fallen asleep atop the chest of a certain man, she'd believed to be part of her dreams. She'd even sworn it at some point that he simply couldn't be real... of course, when he'd stopped speaking the previous afternoon... he'd let his sentence fall by the wayside. Well it didn't matter. By four am when he woke up and gentle moved her, she was still within the deeper cycles of her own dreams. Softly laid back on her pillow she'd not woken and barely stirred. It was simply just enough for her to clutch the pillow in question and murmur the lad's name sleepily, "Ozzy..." And that was all. Or at least... that was the thought. How peaceful those dreams were, only for the lass to be woken abruptly only an hour later, by nothing other than the specialized ringtone of her cellular device. Who could be calling someone at 5am and thinking it perfectly reasonable.

Well, the only person who could... a wonderful older sister. While Nikki rudely woke herself up, stirring to get to the phone she'd abandoned as soon as she'd entered this room. She'd caught sight of her clothing strewn about, but all evidence of the other participant was missing. This included of course, the man who'd previously been in her bed. She'd had told him he could leave when he felt like it... maybe she'd just gotten a little too comfortable with the idea of him staying to be upset about him being gone when she woke up. 'Blimey he could have at least said bye or something...' she thought as she rubbed her eyes. Still... she couldn't really be mad either... she likely made him up. "Ello," she managed finally on the still ringing phone. "That's it?! That's all I get?! 'Ello? I am calling you... to check up on you... and all I get is 'Ello..." the tirade began but all Nikki could do was smile. Even now. "Shut up. Just shut up. I am freaking out over here okay?!" she said pulling her phone on speaker and carrying it with her to the bathroom so she could be hands free while speaking to her sister. "Oooh? That sounds like man troubles... I leave you alone for forty-fucking-eight hours and you've suddenly developed man problems? Spill Nik, spare no details~" the voice came back with the same mild amusement it always had. Some things never changed... Veronica Corbyn was one of those constants in life.

[Bloodedge]

While Nikki was apparently freaking out as it were, Ozzy was walking about the city, completely unawares. It had taken him almost the entire hour to find out where he could acquire some good food, and begin making his way to a location that would've been an eight minute trip from the Dorchester on vehicle. He had to make a call along the way, if only to set up a cab or something to meet him there. With that, he managed to order a couple of breakfast dishes for takeout. While waiting around, he took the collar of his shirt between two fingers, bringing it to his nose for a sniff. Ah, it was high time to swap these clothes out and have a proper wash... as opposed to the 'shower' he took earlier.

If only Oliver knew his sentence had never come to an end before he passed out, this trip probably would have been fine. Alas, he hadn't a clue what he'd done simply by getting too relaxed. Now, he even had to take that cab back to the Dorchester without heading to Nikki's room first. It would be just a bit after 5am when he returned, but his route took him to his own room. He had to shower, he had to change... and he had to grab a few things. And so, the shower began after placing breakfast on a table in his suite's sitting room.

[Apollymi]

Nikki was currently in her room. She'd found comfy clothes and taken them out of her bag. It wasn't much, a simple thong, a pair of knee length pale blue sweatpants with 'Blue' written across the butt, and a camisole with a built in little bra. She didn't much plan on going out today. She was after all spiraling out of control. That made sense. She'd picked up the rest of her clothes, tossed them into that extra bag she carried for dirty things and made her way to the shower. The back of her phone, coming equipped with a suction cup so she could stick it to the wall while she had a proper shower. All the while she chatted with her elder sister explaining the problems of her night. "Ronnie, I made up the perfect bloke and he up and disappeared!" she finally managed. "Made him up? Like you had a great dream and you woke up when I called you?" Her elder sister asked. She was used to such things. "Maybe, I dunno. I met a guy at the panel. He actually is on it with me... we hit it off. He's like a huge fan... of mine!" she explained still in disbelief. "He's gorgeous, fit, he's into video games and he's not a fucking wanker! He's still in uni, wants to be an architect. Adores his little sister... he's got his priorities in order. He doesn't play games!~" Yes, all of these things were apt descriptions of Ozzy. "You know this all sounding great... what happened is his cock small?" The older sister referenced trying to get to the root of the problem here. Not actually expecting the lass to know yet. "No, not at all. It's huge." mentioned Nikki, as she filled the bathroom with steam and the scent of wild orchids and honey. "Hoh? Took a cock out on the first day?! Really must be something else then, huh? Well blokes with nice cocks are usually selfish bedmates anyways..." Ronnie was trying here but Nikki was having none of it. "But he wasn't. Like he was literally great, on demand. Free offers... no expectations here to please... Ronnie, he was literally perfect!" she exclaimed as she rinsed herself and turned off the shower. She pulled her phone from the wall and stepped out, sticking it to the mirror instead so she could continue as she dried off and got dressed. "Bloody hell. You're right, you definitely made him up. You having a shag the first day proves it. That shit just doesn't happen... shishishi~" Veronica finally agreed only to snicker.

"This isn't a laughing matter Ronnie. He's perfect for me. He wanted to get to know me, he's great. He's... everything on my list and stuff I didn't even consider and he's gone. I had to have dreamed him up right? Blokes don't come that perfect. Right?! RIGHT?!" Oh, Nikoleta had it bad for this guy. Veronica had known her sister the girl's entire life and never had she expressed such an outright amount of interest in a boy. Even her first love had been only a passing bit of extra attention paid by the girl. This was either great, or truly terrible. "Calm down Nikoleta! You probably dreamed him up. If you did... go back to sleep and make me one too... I could use something like that~" she mentioned. Nikki had brushed her teeth and picked up her phone again. And now she was pacing in that sitting room trying to gather her thoughts. Sweatpants, camisole, freshly tamed hair clean face and all. "He's gone. I had to have dreamed him up. If not... he's actually an ass and left without telling me. But he's too perfect for that... what do I do?!" she asked her sister which only led to more laughter. "Calm down, like I fucking said," elder sister words of wisdom. "Maybe he needed a wash, and some food? Maybe you're worried for nothing. Maybe he's just a total sweetheart, Mr. Dreamy!~ Like you said... ever consider you might be right?" Veronica's words made Nikki pause. Why didn't she think of that? He was super nice it might not be so bad... ah, but anxieties like these didn't develop overnight and both of these women knew that. "And now that you've stopped wearing a fucking hole in the carpet. I could stop by sometime... check him out if you want," mentioned Veronica. She knew it was a big test for Nikki to make sure guys weren't just out for Veronica instead. "Bloody hell, that's awful sweet and all. But aren't you like halfway across the fucking continent. Don't go doing something like that... not for this...." mentioned Nikki. Yes, she was calmer now but still didn't want her big sister doing any more than she had to.

[Bloodedge]

In the meantime, Ozzy was thoroughly enjoying his shower. He couldn't have been happier if he tried, so of course, he was singing while he showered. Alas, he couldn't tarry for long. He washed as if it were a mission, furiously scrubbing his body so he could hop out quickly. Between Nikki and himself, there were no necessary panel appearances today. Would she be willing to accept his company for the entire day? Maybe she had other plans, or wanted to enjoy the convention normally in her own time. If so, he wondered if they could do so together. These thoughts led him to the end of his shower, at which point he slipped into new clothes. His ensemble of the day consisted of black trousers, orange and black sneakers, and an orange hoodie worn under a black crop-top tee. Naturally, every article he sported was designer

Regardless of Nikki's intentions for the day, he was going to make an offer or three. She seemed interested in a couple of games, so he was sure to pick up his console and laptop, shoving both into a carryon and slipping it over his shoulder while that same arm's hand carried a bag of clothes. Ah, this was going to be quite the issue, wasn't it? There was tea with breakfast, and one hand was already full. Ozzy had to improvise by holding the breakfast bag between his teeth, and both drinks in one hand as he left his suite. A short trip down the hall, and he'd be standing at Nikki's front door. Difficult though it was to keep everything balanced, he had to turn about and knock against the door with the sole of his shoe. There was no point in calling out, lest he risk dropping the bag of food, so he stood there hoping the knock alone was enough. After all, he did tell her what his plan for the morning was... right?

[Apollymi]

Veronica's offer was indeed nice, but she could be a bit closer to home than her little sister could know for a moment of convenience. "Well, yes. I am in Greece after all. It's great though and the weather is perfect... the young blokes are pretty cute~" mentioned her elder sister with all the regard of an annoying mother hen. Big sister was here to offer temptation. "I could always fly you out instead, you could get some sun... and try to drown your sorrows about missing out on your Mr. Perfect~" she offered it was earnest but it was also meant to extract some information from Nikoleta. Did she simply wish to forget about what she wanted, and drown her sorrows or did she want to buck up and at least find out where Mr. Right ran off to? "I can't abandon ship just yet, Ronnie. Still. I am bloody mental already... I feel like I'm on a spiral right now. Like the worst, best bender ever!" she explained the situation to her sister who made a clicking noise with her tongue while staring out of the bedroom of her ocean front hotel room. "Yo, calm down. You're sounding like a lass whose madferit. You in love Nik? Thinking of making some bad decisions?" she asked of the girl. "Well... I mean..." she gave it a bit of pause. She was at least infatuated, very much wanted to see where this sort of thing was going. Didn't want to give up on Ozzy at all. "I might be madferit. I don't wanna give up or anything. I don't think I can... too much potential good, to get hung up on the losses, ya' know?" she asked of her sister.

A sigh escaped the other purple haired lass, who halfway across the continent could see her younger sister biting her lip and thinking over the decision. "Take the risk. Fuck the guy twice... move in with him next week. Chain him to your bed. Hell, if you decide you want to kill him... I know a good place we can dump his body!" exclaimed the older sister. "Fuck Ronnie, you can't say stuff like that randomly," she said noticing the faint sound of tapping at her door. "I think your ungrateful ass was trying to say thanks, but you messed it up in the middle there~" mentioned Ronnie. It was probably a neighbor, she'd been pacing and loudly talking at 5am with her sister. "Now look what you've gone and done. I am going to have to explain to someone that I'm not a nutter and didn't mean to wake them... That my crazy sister is just offering to be an accessory to murder!" she stated. Only to hear a giggle as she walked towards the door. She was a bit short to see out of the peephole so she didn't bother, instead she opened it a crack and wasn't really looking while she held onto her phone. "Sorry about the noise, mate. I just... got kinda woun..." she gave a pause. What she saw outside of her door, was a man who looked like he was ready to move in with... breakfast. Score one for her older sister. "Ozzy?!"

[Bloodedge]

It took a bit for the door to be answered. Ozzy could have sworn he heard Nikki speaking on her way, and in fact, he did. Good. With the door opening in moments, he could turn to face it and look through that small space to see Nikki in... some rather comfortable-looking attire. That was strange; he couldn't imagine her being dressed like an everyday person, though he very much liked the look already. When she addressed him, she did so in the strangest manner. Was she surprised to see him back so early? He was pretty sure he'd taken far too long to get back. Either way, he brandished the two takeout cups of tea─ the bag of food couldn't have been more obvious as he attempted to speak while holding it. "Sup," he said, putting forth enough effort to keep his teeth firmly around the bag handle. His voice was quite muffled as a result, but surely he'd managed some amount of clarity. "I bought brekkie~"

Why had he heard Nikki's voice prior to her answering the door? It didn't really matter, but he'd soon find out.

[Apollymi]

Surprise. Nikki was truly and utterly shocked. And right just now, bag of food in mouth, hands full, well dressed, Ozzy was just as amazing as he'd been the day before. And he was here... with breakfast?! "I told you so," the voice on the phone brought Nikki out of her daze. "Shut up." was her only reply, which only caused more laughter to come from the other side. "Shishishishi~" more laughter from the phone. Nikki reached out for a second to take something from the lad so he could come in more easily. "Come in... I ah... didn't know you were coming back. But like really come in let me help you with that~" she mentioned one of those random bites on her bottom lip occurred as she did this. Yep, still actually shocked, relieved... oh she was staring again, and now she felt a bit under dressed to have come to the door like so. Oh, she needed to make sure he didn't wander off again... there it was the strange itch in the back of her mind. That thing that only seemed to occur in Ozzy's presence.

"Mr. Perfect Dream walks back to the door, brings your always forgetting to eat self some breakfast... and that's all ya' got to say? I didn't raise you like this~" these were the words of Nikki's older sister. "Really, shut up Ronnie." Nikki managed again. Her elder sister was one person on the planet capable of easily getting under her skin. And he would do so now, just because... it would turn out well for the lass overall. Especially if, this guy was truly all she thought he was. "Whatever Nik... go on, I'll let you go just remember..." she gave a gentle pause before speaking taking a deep breath. "If you're so worried about him leaving, fuck him twice make sure he doesn't again~" she said. Such words were pretty normal from Veronica. Even so, they were completely out of line. Nikki could have died her eyes widened her face flushed and she wanted to melt into a puddle. "Bitch you are on speaker!" she said seemingly mortified. Another snicker passed over the phone. "I know~ Remember, make great bad choices!~" and then a click. That was well and truly it. Veronica Corbyn a whirlwind of her own type in Nikki's life. What was Nikki even supposed to say after a moment like that...

[Bloodedge]

Lo and behold, another voice sounded from within the room. Ozzy didn't think much of it; it was even tainted by the mechanical filter of a speaker. Ah, shared habits. Making use of his hands so much for gaming and the like, he was also one who frequently used speakerphone without much extra thought. It always felt... natural, going hands-free. Speaking of having free hands, Nikki freed up one of his while stating that she didn't know he'd be returning. How strange; did she not remember? "I said I was probably gonna grab some stuff whenever I crawled out of bed, didn't I?" he asked, ignorant of the fact that he hardly managed a word the previous evening.

As he entered the room, Ozzy overheard a discussion taking place between Nikki and whatever woman was on the phone. Mr. Perfect Dream? Were they having a conversation about him, by chance? According to the next words of Ronnie as Nikki called her, the answer was of course... yes. So, Ronnie must have been short for Veronica, the name of Nikoleta's aforementioned sister. Fuck him twice, the woman insisted despite being on speakerphone. Ozzy wasn't sure what he found more hilarious, between that and the candidness of Nikki's reaction. After hearing such incredibly unheard-of advice, he could do nothing but laugh as the conversation came to a sudden end. The items he held even had to be placed on the nearest surface, freeing Oliver to clutch his abdomen during the door's closing. "Oh... oh, fuck all," he said, making every effort to catch his breath. "That was brilliant! I'm guessing that was your sister?" the male wondered. It seemed he didn't at all take exception to what was being discussed. As a matter of fact, things he could infer from the amount of conversation he heard were only good for him. Well, that was what he thought of it, at least.

[Apollymi]

Oh? Was that how that sentence was supposed to end. Ah, Nikki was about to shatter some dreams. After putting down several items she managed to shrug thinking about what he said, previously before he went to sleep. "Actually, that came out more like... 'Bloody hell. I think I'm gonna...' and then I looked up and you were gone mate," she explained of the situation. Of course she'd drifted off to sleep herself soon after. Not that any of this was a real concern. He was back, apparently... he'd had no intentions of abandoning her. Her brought breakfast, that was really thoughtful, and now looked equipped to simply share her living space as if he never intended to leave again. How direct.

Beyond that point though, this well-dressed absolute dream of perfection was now empty-handed and laughing. Of course he was, Nikki's older sister was hilarious, full of terrible yet somehow good advice and constantly being far too blunt for the general public. How she managed to have a reasonable image while being the way she was, Nikki barely understood. "Yes, that was my sister... Bloody embarrassing me first thing in the morning," she managed, not even seeming to be really cross about the situation. Of course, she was already used to her sister's antics and as such she really couldn't be upset. Whatever the case, she found her way into the sitting room, plugged up her phone and managed to look surprised. She really hadn't expected him to just come back. "You really went out and got breakfast?"

[Bloodedge]

Ah... well, Nikki's clarification explained a lot─ like the fact that Ozzy had no recollection of her response to his final words yesterday! "Right, that... makes sense of how you didn't say anything about that, huh? Oh, I am thick!" he exclaimed, almost as if furious with himself for just a moment. "Sorry about that. Had I known I never said any of that stuff, I'd have just waited around until you woke up. Full disclosure, I was cream crackered!"

As he thought, the 'Ronnie' on the phone was Veronica herself. He could understand why Nikki and so many others thought highly of the woman; she was a hoot, and he hadn't even shared a single word with her. "Well for what it's worth, you don't have to do anything to make sure I don't go anywhere. I'm half ready to move in, ain't I?" he joked, despite the fact that he definitely brought a few different articles of clothing with him. As for him really going out for breakfast, Ozzy reached out to lift the bag. Within, there were two Styrofoam plates, each containing: fried eggs, toasted muffins, cumberland sausage, bacon, grilled tomatoes, mushrooms, and baked beans. Of course, there was also the side of tea previously put down. "Yeah! Took the piss to find a place open so early in the morning, but I found a spot with fry-ups over in Chelsea. Oh! And I brought over those games, in case you wanted to check them out. Had a wash when I went to my suite though, so the food probably needs microwaving by now. My fault there; I was a bit sweaty after walking a few miles down the road."

[Apollymi]

For a moment Ozzy seemed well and truly furious with himself, Nikki looked at him curiously. He really had no reason to be upset... in her eyes she'd only woken up from a crazy dream and not much else. Besides all of that... he'd actually done nothing to earn any ire from her at all. According to him, he'd been wiped the day before so he really had meant to finish what he was saying and he wouldn't have left before she woke up, if he thought he hadn't finished that sentence. That was... amazing. Of all the reactions he could have had to finding out that he'd left pretty much without saying anything... this one was great. "Blimey." she managed looking sheepish. "You weren't the only one worn out. I probably wouldn't have woken at all, if Ronnie hadn't called. Though she normally calls like that when she's out of the country, she has no concept of time..." she mentioned of her sister. True enough, Nikki probably would have slept until he returned if she hadn't been woken by the phone call. And unknown to the lad, her sister had been giving her positive options to outweigh the negatives of her mind for a while. That was always good.

According to Ozzy she didn't have to do anything to get him to stay, he was ready to move in. She saw that upon his arrival and still could only laugh. "Well, that is definitely good. Wouldn't want to go to any extremes~" she said with a chuckle. Yep, she'd keep the bits about locking him up, and maybe killing him and dumping his body between her and her sister. You know... girl talk. "You walked to Chelsea?! For breakfast?!" Nikki was near outraged. She really didn't care if it was hot or not. The idea that he'd gone through so much trouble for what was in her head absolutely no reason was astounding. Her sister was quite right, she normally skipped such meals. She usually got so caught up in doing random things in the morning, she didn't eat until late evenings when she was famished and near death. Beyond all of that, he'd brought games, so they could play, and have fun... just the two of them? There it went again, she was biting her bottom lip... "You know that's like, abnormally sweet right?" she asked of the man. They could have breakfast and do whatever all day... she didn't really care. She figured he had plans and such... this was a convention, surely he had better potential things to do today than hangout with her in her room the way she was planning to do.

[Bloodedge]

Of course he wasn't the only one exhausted from the previous day; they'd both been doing quite a bit since their meeting. Nikki herself had only woken due to a phone call, according to the lass herself. That was good; he'd have hated to be the one waking her due to not having this room's key... which was something else he forgot on his way out. "Good thing she's got bad timing then. I meant to nick your room key so I could get back in easy, in case you were still asleep. That bit got away from me on the way out," he admitted bashfully.

Nikki claimed she wouldn't want to going to any extremes, but that was exactly what he'd done... and what he would be doing in future. Realization of his willingness to do so, apparently came rather quickly alongside the realization of how far he'd gone. Chelsea wasn't very far away at all... in a car. The fact that Ozzy walked there, was a reason for shock. "Well yeah, and I know that sounds a bit extra... but, I didn't plan on going that far. I've no clue what's open in London at half four in the morning, but apparently that's the closest it gets." Ah, it seemed his defense of his actions was somewhat unnecessary. What he'd done was... sweet? Hardly so; Ozzy just thought it was fair to run out for a bite. Besides that, he wanted to share a few more experiences with Nikki... like all experiences ever possible! "That so? I mean, you're putting me up while I'm pretty much a stranger and all. Tea should be on me. I was also wondering if you had any plans for the day. Or, if you do have plans, if you'd have me along. I could head back after breakfast, else─ no bother at all."

[Apollymi]

Ozzy thought it was good, Nikki's older sister had bad timing. Apparently, he'd originally planned to take her room key and let himself back in before she woke up. That indeed would have been a surprising turn of events. "Ah, I can give you one. I mean, hotels always give two anyways. And I have the one in my phone case and the other on that table by the door..." she said. Yes, she was exactly this sort of person. Granting access to her person, one random bit of information at a time. Was it strange she still planned to just give him further access to her person? Not to Nikki. No. Now was the time to sink it home to lay proper claim... her sister was right. She was far too into this guy to want to do anything but throw herself all in. Still she couldn't help but find herself staring at him, looking all bashful about his lack of planning in this case. He was gorgeous but right just now she thought him cute. Not in a diminishing way but just in general.

According to Ozzy he'd woken up before 4 am and had gone in search of breakfast. He claimed he hadn't intended to go so far, but the place in Chelsea had been the only one open. "Oh, right. Makes sense, definitely just walk halfway out the city for breakfast at 3 am," said Nikki sarcastically. Still she wasn't upset at all. She was pretty happy about it. She'd never been around anyone but her sister who cared that much about her wellbeing in general. She'd already found all of his actions to be so much for her, she couldn't really help but feel truly touched by his work. "Is that really a thing. I'm pretty sure I kidnapped you yesterday~" she said in a manner most teasing. Of course, he went on to question her plans. Wondering if she'd have him along or if she had anything else to do. He claimed he'd leave if he wasn't needed or wanted after breakfast, but... Nikki couldn't really allow that. She managed to look a tad bit sheepish for a moment. "I don't actually have anything planned for the day. I figured I could treat this whole thing like a mini holiday," she explained sheepishly. "I was hoping to spend the extra time with you, if you don't have anything else to do..."

[Bloodedge]

Apparently, Ozzy would be allowed the spare key to Nikki's room. That was an interesting development; he'd have to keep it in mind to offer his suite's spare as well. "Oh, brilliant! I'll try and remember it next time. Maybe I'll slip out to drop a few more surprises later, even," the lad said. After doing something as ridiculous as seeking breakfast before any normal hour of the day, the sky was the limit. Maybe the next day, he'd use his strange waking hours to find somewhere worth going for both of them.

At present, the only worthwhile place to be that Ozzy could give consideration to, was this very hotel suite. It could have been his own as well, but there was a certain feeling of belonging when invited to Nikki's instead. She even went on to claim she'd kidnapped him the previous day. Well, they did leave the convention in her limo... and she did literally pull him into her room. "Does that count as kidnapping? I guess so, huh. Well, far as kidnappings go, that one was pretty goddamn hot. Snatch me up whenever you fancy," he insisted. Considering all that happened after he first entered this very room, Ozzy could do nothing but be absolutely elated. Luckily for him, Nikki had nothing planned for the day. With that being the case, it seemed she was willing to spend the day with him. "Even if I did have plans, I'd drop the lot in a heartbeat," the lad spoke, beaming as he did so. "Let's have us a nice visit then, eh? Then you can tell me all about how that application's coming along~"

[Apollymi]

Oh? There was no negative commentary about her offer of a spare room key. Nor did he have anything bad to say about her plans to monopolize his time in anyway. She figured that would have felt a bit threating in to his freedom. And while it was true he did seem to be the one actively pursuing her, she was just as invested in making sure he knew that she wished to have him around. Besides she trusted him already. "As you like then. I like a nice surprise or two~" she confirmed her desire to hand over the room key. Beyond this point, she was having a very good time, and now she was watching as Ozzy seemed to be gathering himself a bit more. He was already pretty confident and now he was having even more fun.

Their start of yesterday could indeed be seen as her kidnapping him. Even though by all accounts he was a willing pariticpant. Apparently that participation wasn't limited to past events either. It was hot? She could snatch him up like that whenever she felt inclined. She cut her eyes in his direction while they contained a devious light. Did he have any idea what he was agreeing to when saying something like that? "Blimey, you can't say things like that... I might take you seriously," she commented. What was more, he didn't have plans and was willing to spend the day with her. How exciting. She couldn't help the big smile that spread across her face upon having this sort of confirmation. In fact, it only got bigger as he clarified. "You really know what to say to me, Ozzy," she mentioned only being a little teasing. She was certain being treated as such a priority did strange things to her. He was bound to be on the receiving end of a lot of strange treatment given her own desires if he made himself that available. "Sounds like a plan to me," she agreed, still bearing a pretty bright smile. She really wanted to spend time with this lad. How were her ideas about keeping him around panning out. Well, she'd all but decided to keep him around. The truth of the matter was, if he didn't choose to leave, she'd never make him. That is where she was... actually that wasn't entirely true, she didn't want to let him leave either. Yep, moved right along to crazy. As such it was only right that she didn't necessarily make it easy for the lad to walk away right?

[Bloodedge]

Oliver went about organizing the things he'd brought in, separating food from his electronics by putting the latter on another table. As for his extra clothes, he slung them over the sitting room's couch for the time being. Perhaps later, those would fit into a closet somewhere, but his priorities were elsewhere for now. Apparently, he knew just what to say to one such as Nikki. Moreover, she said he might be taken seriously by saying such things. Well... that was the point of saying it in the first place, wasn't it? "I wouldn't have opened my mouth if I didn't want to be taken seriously," he said, offering nothing but the facts. If she wanted to take him seriously and drag him randomly into a room, closet, vehicle, church or anything, he'd always be a willing participant. To even imply anything else would be a grievous underestimation of his adoration for the lass.

Besides the cut and dry of the matter, there was no doubt in his mind that Nikki had given proper consideration to his words. That look in her eye told the tale better than words ever could, and demanded a similar expression be sent back her way. Whatever she had in mind for their time spent together, now that both parties had confirmed their interest, was all good in his book. Actually, giving her a once-over... and another... he figured it would be a simple day in. "Bloody hell, smile like that again and I'll go buy a ring. So... no makeup, sweats and a small top. I usually call that sort of thing a pizza, booze, tele sort of day. Anything specific tickle your fancy for starters?"

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy he wouldn't have said anything if he didn't want to be taken seriously. A quick narrowing of Nikki's eyes happened in this moment. Did he know how she was taking his statements? He couldn't really, but that shared look implied he knew at least a little of how her mind worked. And it was in general working a great deal of overtime in the moment. "Well, I guess I already did the kidnapping part~" she mused. She could take him seriously. They could go along and do a great many things. She wouldn't let him walk out of her life at this point... she wasn't interested in anything less than him.

And there it was again, that little itch in the back of her mind. The one which told her, to do something more than what she was doing already. Ah, but what did it want now? She'd already agreed to spend time with Ozzy today. And what was more, she'd confirmed her desire to be in his presence. And what was this? He made the claim that if she smiled at him like that again he'd buy a ring. Her eyes widened. She hadn't done anything out of the ordinary, still something about that claim made it so she couldn't at all wipe the smile off her face. "You can't say things like that and expect me not to smile more... bloody hell if I know how to not smile at a comment like that~" she flirted. Oh yes, she was beyond the point of hiding her interest in this man. After all, she'd all but proclaimed a certain desire to do things with this man. As for what he actually had to say though, after giving her a once over or maybe a twice over, Ozzy seemed to have a pretty good idea of what Nikki would be doing with her day. "Pizza, booze, tele? That actually sounds like a great day. To be fair I wasn't planning to go out. The first couple days of a con are usually kind of boring. Aside from being on the panel I wouldn't have shown up at this one for a while...." she stated in a matter of fact manner. Of course, soon after she was asked what it was she wanted first. What tickled her fancy?

Well there was a very simple answer to that. Oliver Williams. He tickled her fancy. More or less... she wanted him. To spend time with him, to keep him around, to just... have? Yeah. That was about right. So when asked such a question she thought it over with great consideration. They had all day. All week... their whole lives even. But she wasn't sure if she got enough of him just yet. He'd brought them breakfast though, but... it already had to be microwaved. It could wait a bit longer right? There it went again, as she thought it over... she began to gently bite her bottom lip. What did she want? Well, there was that little itch gnawing away at her mind... and why shouldn't she? Why shouldn't she satisfy a rather sudden and new desire? Everything she'd experienced so far said that nothing negative could come from having such a desire if she pointed it at Ozzy. Everything she knew so far said she wanted to point such a desire at Ozzy. "Blimey, I really can't think of anything else... postpone breakfast for a bit? I mean... I'd rather have you tickle my fancy at this point~" she mentioned in a haphazard way. Oh, right. Nikki was being a bit direct herself. She was already approaching the couch. She'd have him sit, she'd occupy his lap and... kiss him good morning. Yes... that sounded like a great plan. Food could wait.

[Bloodedge]

"See? No harm, no foul. Or... maybe no pain no gain works better? Nah, probably not," Ozzy ranted. True enough though, he'd already effectively been torn away from any and everything else he would have done, as he would have been simply from Nikki agreeing to accompany him. There could be nothing else more worthwhile to him than something that involved the lass. Noted as well, was the fact that he could easily make that smile return to Nikki's visage, with something as simple as... the compliments that spewed forth from his mouth with the ease of a broken faucet. "That's brilliant! I'll keep a smile on your face 24/7 at this rate, that being the case~" he teased. Despite the nature of his words, Ozzy knew it would be him who could never again be rid of a wide grin.

Pizza, booze, tele. Such was what Ozzy reverted to with great frequency, whenever he actually wasn't streaming some video game or otherwise. Nikki showed some interest in doing exactly that, much to his surprise. He actually figured her downtime at home was spent drawing up some new design, or something else of the sort. Discovering the more normal side of the lass was only becoming more interesting by the moment. "We should do pizza booze tele. If you like, I can pop out while shops are still open tonight, maybe grab a few?" he inquired.

Now then, what tickled the fancy of Nikoleta Corbyn now? Apparently, it wasn't breakfast, but instead the idea of Ozzy doing a bit of... tickling as it were. This revelation came after just a bit of deliberation, which featured another bite to that plump little lip of hers. Could Ozzy ever not have his attention dragged directly to that gesture? No, of course not... and in this case, it could only be taken as a positive that he did. He was quite sure his heartbeat became far more powerful than necessary, just for a single thump. "Well, since you've gone and put it that way..." he said openly, mostly taken aback by the sureness of Nikki in the moment. The fact that she made such an offer beyond an already-heated moment like they experienced the previous day, implied a level of interest that he simply couldn't believe. Ah, but even if he wanted to be in disbelief, there was no arguing with the fact that Nikki was already en route to the sitting room sofa. He followed along as if it were his duty, only to be dragged onto the sofa and straddled immediately. Well, this was a refreshing way to start the morning properly─ damn the thought of breakfast! What's more, she kissed him in this position. Ozzy could hardly think of a fitting response that wasn't taking hold of her sides and let his own lips meet that soft press against them. He may have been a bit shocked by the turn of events, but that didn't at all make him anything but willing to progress.

[Apollymi]

A giggle, escaped Nikki as Ozzy tried to work his way through an old saying which applied to her 'kidnapping' of is person and the relative outcome. She couldn't really tell, if it was the wrongness of the statements or just the fact that he'd said it, which made it funny. But regardless she'd appreciated the effort. As far as she was concerned as long as they were in agreement to keep hanging out, she had no problems whatsoever. What was more, Ozzy seemed more than content that he could keep smiles on her face by way of compliments. Nikki in turn was satisfied that they all seemed to come from such a genuine place. There wasn't any real ulterior motives in what he said, he was simply opening his mouth and those things were falling out of it. So long as that was the case, Nikki could accept the words he felt her without qualm and bask in the happiness they provided. "Whoa, take it easy on me mate~ I don't know if my face could take the workout~" she mused. Of course, there was no problem in her accepting his compliments. Perhaps eventually it'd be obvious why this was the case, but for now, they could continue their dance of discovery.

Speaking of, Nikki couldn't know how much Ozzy was enjoying learning of her normal self. Even so, she'd pretty much mentioned that she was absolutely normal, and though she did often participate in the things he imagined. Drawings of new designs, sewing of certain prototype pieces even sampling fabrics and other such things. She was also still a young woman of her age, she liked video games to unwind, spent way too much time editing her videos from youtube and enjoyed drinking in the right situations. As such, something as normal as the idea of pizza booze tele, was absolutely enticing. "Yeah. It sounds like a pretty good time to me~" she said more than excited just to share some new activity with the lad. It didn't really matter what. Or rather.... it only mattered as much as her brain made it matter in the moment.

Instead of being caught up on such thoughts, Nikki found herself prodding Ozzy with a certain wish of hers. And to her surprise he willingly accepted her call for immediate affection and sexual gratification. He even verbalized his acquiescence and would easily be found in the position she wanted. Nikki was straddling his lap and pressing her lips into his, it started off as soft but there was a certain desire beneath the initial press that made her lean further into him. Ah, this was a great way to start the morning. What was more, he only seemed to feed into her building arousal, hands upon her sides seemed to give her reason to relax. Her own hands were busy. Her finger tips gently traced the lad's jaw to his neckline. And when she finally pulled back she found herself studying the details of his face from this position. He really had a great shape to his face, nice lips too... Ah but what would always catch her attention would be those gorgeous golden eyes. It really wasn't fair for someone to have eyes that nice. "Oh, I forgot... good morning, Ozzy~" she said happily before her lips were back against his, moving with an increasing bit of desperation. Those gentle tracing fingers eventually would be found around the back of his head buried in his hair while her hips shifted in his lap. She pressed herself close enough that they were only separated by their clothes, but she could feel her heart beat speeding up already. She'd enjoy this, from this angle and this level of comfort. Oh, she could stare into this man's face forever.

[Bloodedge]

Oh, how unusually tender for what they'd come to know of each other thus far. Everything the previous day had been almost a rush. Ozzy might have wondered if lust alone was the fuel for their actions, yet these moments silenced any assumptions. Alas, there was another truth to the matter. Even if not powered exclusively by lust, carnal desire was omnipresent in its own right. Those gentle touches and little pecks could only be fleeting as arousal began to claim two souls within this sitting room. The simple matter of Nikki claiming his lap the way she'd done was enough to raise loins, but her hips were already beginning to move. So close they were─ close enough that the discarding of a few articles would leave them melding together. Ozzy's gentle grip became something more akin to a clench, fingertips pressing into Nikki's skin as the sharpness of his inhales joined the ferocity of his heartbeat.

That 'good morning' would be lost to the world in an instant. Mostly, it would receive no response due to how quickly their lips were brought together again. Oliver couldn't complain one bit. No, all he could do was match that desperate clutch with every fiber of his being. Tension coursed through his every muscle, aiming to release itself through both groin and lips as the latter retaliated against Nikki's mouth. It was so strange that such a thrill could come his way when in the company of a woman and fully clothed. If it was ever going to be someone to bring about this eventuality, though, of course it would be Nikoleta. This was a proposition at base. Did he ever have an opportunity to turn it down? He wouldn't have done so anything, but something about Nikki's approach here was... not quite demanding, but certainly commanding.

[Apollymi]

Nikki hadn't given Ozzy a chance to reply to her morning greeting. Even so, she was having a great time of her occupation of his lap. Those gentle movements of her hips, even fully clothed didn't stop at all. It was just the same that the soft movements of her mouth were a constant as well. Her lips meeting his repeatedly would evolve a bit, as she nibbled at his bottom lip, sucked it with purpose. She wanted him to open his mouth to her so she could enter that space with her tongue. She wanted to gently caress the inside of his mouth as she aimed for an amount of closeness, unperturbed by timing. Surely, this pair of people was still behaving a bit like horny teens. That much was obvious by the amount of clothing still present on their persons. But today, there wasn't a feeling of rushing encompassing the whole of Nikki's actions. She felt a bit more settled in that carnal desire today. Now instead of the itch of impulsivity she had a desire to claim.

Right at the moment the feeling of Ozzy's fingers against her sides was quite enticing. Though there was another matter. Beneath her, his groin was more than happy to let her know of its existence. As she kissed him in this manner she found herself growing in arousal knowing she could excite him like this, even fully clothed at a moments notice. Strangely, there was some kind of power in knowing someone found you attractive. Ozzy seemed to have a bit extra of such a power when she considered how much he liked her for just herself. She found her hands moving from his hair eventually tracing the skin of his neck as they kissed. She liked his clothes and his clothing choices, but she'd have to break their kiss to get more access to his skin. Ah... well, that could wait, she had a bit more patience to enjoy today, and there was a certain pace she intended to take as she took a bit of charge in this situation. She wondered if she'd be allowed this... well, time would tell.

[Bloodedge]

Heat. Oliver felt a massive surge of heat coursing through his body. Perhaps the sweater was to blame. Yes, it certainly wasn't a good idea to wear such a thing if this close contact was going to be an option. Luckily, he fancied the heat. Nikki seemed to fancy the idea of consuming his bottom lip, much like she did her own so frequently. There was no questioning this activity─ only questioning the limits of Nikki's intent. Where would she stop? Would there be any point of stopping at all, or even slowing? It didn't seem so, and that thought was riveting. Hands were moving about his head as his mouth was assaulted, and of course, his mouth opened naturally. Such resulted in an immediate intrusion of Nikki's tongue, in anything but an unwelcome manner.

Ah, that tongue. Oliver's own tongue met the intruder, albeit only within the confines of his own mouth. Nikki had been moving about as if she had a plan, so indeed, now was the time for the lad to take the proverbial back seat. He could have easily brought about a bit of swapping by forcing this interaction back into Nikki's mouth, but something about that felt... wrong. No, it only felt right to act as if inviting another into one's abode. That tongue was caressed upon entry, as well as for the duration of its stay. All the while, Ozzy's hands loosed their grip for the sole purpose of sliding lower down her sides. No matter what was in his way, if there was an arse to grab, he'd be taking hold of it─ and that seemed to be perfectly rational with the preexisting movements of Nikoleta.

[Apollymi]

Entry! Nikki had attained exactly what she desired from the movements of her mouth and with her tongue now moving about within Ozzy's mouth she was content. But content alone wasn't enough she would lavish the inside of his mouth, explore it fully while wrestling that which moved about within. If Ozzy took any issue with the directness of her approach, he hadn't gone about making it anything different. Not a single push back was met against any of her motions, her hands were settled and his did the same but not in anyway which impeded her own exploration or movements. Instead the lad whose lap she occupied would have his hands grabbing her rear. That was a warm and welcome sensation. Nikki herself was rather petite as a woman, well-proportioned but with nothing particularly exotic about her figure. As such, Ozzy's obvious interest was something she welcomed without hesitation. She liked this feeling and found a gentle moan escaping her.

She began to wonder as she continued, if there would be a point at which Ozzy wished to stop or change what was happening here. He hadn't shown that he would stop her from doing most anything she liked, and she didn't have any strange desires so she doubted they would clash properly at any point. So she continued when a break was natural she pulled back from his mouth and stared endlessly into his face. He really was gorgeous!~ Her fingers traveled downward to the sides of his sweater. She did like the look of it, and she would love to talk fashion with Ozzy but right now she simply wanted to see more of him and to feel the warmth of his skin directly. "Hm, aren't you hot in this?" she asked as she aimed to help him out of it. Whatever the case, she wanted more, she hadn't move from his grip, nor exited his lap and intended to remain just as she was until she got whatever it was she was actually seeking from such a position.

[Bloodedge]

Naturally, that heat wasn't going to be going anywhere anytime soon. Nikoleta inhabited his mouth as if it were her personal property, and Ozzy had no room to complain at all. As far as exotic figures went, and as far as Oliver was concerned, there were none more luxurious than what his hands lay upon presently. Of course, that only meant he had to keep a decently firm grip of it when possible, didn't it? Yes, that would be the case. It seemed even, that Nikki fancied his grasp... unless her moans happened to be the result of his groin pulsing beneath her at the time. It could have been one thing, it could have been the other─ neither made a difference in this situation.

No, he didn't have a single intention of changing current events. Ozzy didn't even think to take charge of the situation in any respect, given how clearly invested Nikki was in laying claim to him. Excitement was all he knew. Well, that wasn't the whole of it. He knew excitement, but also general wonder. What all would Nikki be doing? Apparently, everything would begin in a new phase as her hands reached the bottom of his sweater, tugging away when their lips finally parted. Along with this, came a question. "Fat lot of good that'll do; I think I'll be hot regardless," he quipped as that sweater and shirt combination was being pulled up his torso. This proximity to Nikki alone would have been more than enough to have him tugging at his collar, even if they were both fully nude in an air-conditioned room. This sort of heat, however, was the type none should ever complain about. "Not to say I mind the help, but I'm not too bothered if it gets even hotter~"

[Apollymi]

The natural heat accumulating between them, surely wasn't going to disappear just because Nikki removed his sweater. Of course, that didn't matter because what she wanted from him was that heat. Strangely, even through her clothes the press of his hands and the pulse of his member were both rather enticing things to feel. Her lack of rushing in this moment meant she'd get to enjoy them more and that brought a certain hidden joy to Nikki. She was taking ownership of his lad piece by piece, whether she realized it or not. But this wasn't simply a matter of plaguing his thoughts for more than a year. No, this was a personal matter of Nikki taking a great interest in him personally. Nothing she'd seen of him so far was anything other than what she wanted, and as such making her own interest in him as clear as humanly possible seemed to be woven into her every action.

Her fingers traced skin as she managed to get his sweater up to the halfway point. He'd have to remove his hands if only for a moment for her to get it up and over his head. She assumed he'd acquiesce to such a desire, while he spoke of being 'hot'. She grinned at the statement as it was true in more ways than one. "You're right about that," she complimented. Though he was always singing her praises, she couldn't help mentioning how much she saw him in a similar light. She hadn't had a whole year to get used to the amount of attractiveness the man contained... so all of it was still very new to her. "Well, if you don't mind the help, we can definitely make it hotter~" she mentioned. Upon him being unveiled she'd move back in her face being buried into the side of his neck. She'd press her lips there, drawn her tongue up towards his ear and shift her hips just a little bit more in his lap.

[Bloodedge]

Indeed, he was right, and in multiple ways to boot. He was always going to be 'hot' in the sense of being attractive. Just the same though, he was always going to be hot and bothered in the presence of Nikoleta. Both now and the previous day were poor examples for how far his adoration went, but even Ozzy himself could tell things would only develop with every interaction they had. Chances were, he'd hardly survive enough encounters to unveil the truth, but he was more than willing to spend a lifetime working toward it.

Speaking of working toward things, a sacrifice had to be made. What a shame it was that he had to release his hold on Nikki, even if just for a moment. He let go, of course, only to return the moment that shirt was pulled over his head. He didn't care where it ended up, regardless of its price or limited availability. There was only one thing of importance here, and it was Nikki─ he had to get her sorted as she liked, however that would be. "Sounds lovely. I'm not one to dress for cold weather anyway," he quipped in response to that little flirt of hers. Her hips were mobile once again, and soon, her lips and tongue were wetting his neck. Ozzy's head tilted the opposite direction as goose pimples rose along his torso. What a tease. Surely Nikki knew the immediate effects of what she was doing. At this rate, their trousers would both become soaked at the groin as they rubbed against one another through the layers. Just the same, Ozzy would soon be well out of his mind. "Alright, you got me there. Definitely hotter, that. What do I do to heat things up on your end?" the male questioned. There remained many more things he wanted to know. What really tickled her fancy, for example, was his prime concern presently. How would he next deliver satisfaction, or rather... did he even need to do a single thing at this rate?

[Apollymi]

Nikoleta had some interesting feelings in the making about Oliver. Though admittedly quite a few of them were about his appearance, she'd already become fond of the fun he showed himself capable of. Beyond that point his charm and kindness easily won over any of her misgivings. She was having an interesting time and had every intention of figuring out how much her own feelings could grow towards his. She was already infatuated, she already enjoyed his company, she already desired him... so what more could she want?

Well, right at the moment, there were a few more angles she wished to view his face from. And their current positioning was one of those. She wished this for the time being... and for a start simply because it was proof of her own interest. After all, she couldn't have him feel as if he was solely the one interested in her, such a feeling was absolutely heartbreaking. And if there was one thing she didn't want, it was that potential. No, right just now, she wished to show that budding affection, in the only way she could. By claiming him as her own. Ah, but the distractions of his form were still present as well. Given the placement of her face in his neck her hands traced his exposed torso only to feel the goose flesh in response to the workings of her tongue and lips on his neck. A knowing smirk broke out across her face as she ever so gently teased him with the rocking motions of her hips. She'd then speak against those gently wet spaces she'd created, thinking to answer his inquiry. "Oh... that's a good question, innit?" she replied playfully. In the space of a breath after that question she moved a bit to flick his earlobe with her tongue. "Save it for later though... I'm sure you'll keep me hot regardless~" she mentioned as she took the time to gently close her teeth around that lobe. "Right just now, I wanna go like this," she punctuated this with a gentle rocking of her hips in his lap. "So when I get up to take my clothes off, you'll finish getting naked for me right, Ozzy?" she asked as she blew a gentle breath into that same ear. Nikki had probably teased a bit more than she would have normally, but she'd wished to ride this lad as she'd been teasing the last few moments. Her own movements told her she was about ready for such an undertaking regardless, and so long as Ozzy was agreeable to the plan... they could progress towards that goal.

[Bloodedge]

And there he sat, topless and erect beneath a fully, yet comfortably-clothed, lass. The pressure of this situation was getting to him quickly. It had little to do with his own clothing situation, but everything to do with the rising sexual tension Nikki was causing. His question was a good one, allegedly. What of it? Apparently, there was nothing to be done with the offer. Nikki had a solid plan, and it didn't at all involve his own input. She was going to get up. She was going to disrobe. In the meantime, she would be expecting him to remove what remained of his clothes as well. What could he say? Well, no was not an answer that could escape him at all. "Well there's no need to ask me twice," he managed through the gasps that came as a result of Nikki's approach. There was hardly a thing he could do besides disrobe, if he was going to be watching Nikki do the same. Well, that wasn't fully true. He'd have to be rather conscious of doing so, lest he let himself be lost in observation. "I think I can manage. Since you're so sure, I can at least do that."

Progress. That was the name of the game, wasn't it? To make it, he had to remove his hands from the lass once more. What a shame. Realistically though, he'd only receive a higher quality surface to grasp if he let loose right away. And so, he did. His hands slid themselves off Nikki's rear, and his eyes traveled along her form as she remained in his lap. She'd be up soon enough, he thought... and he could easily observe while also ridding himself of breeches and the like. After all, he no longer had to be concerned with any articles impairing his vision, since that had been taken care of moments prior.

[Apollymi]

Ozzy was apparently rather agreeable with the current plan that Nikki had laid. He agreed with his words, and though she'd been teasing him constantly his actions also complied. She soon enough found the lad letting go of her person which he would have had to do in order for her to exit his lap properly. Ah, so there it was, now it was time for her to make good on the plan she'd so recently constructed. Still, if she was being honest, Nikki didn't really want to exit this man's lap at all. What would it be like to just be able to cast aside one's clothes in a single motion and attain nudity instantly without losing anything... a pipe dream but it surely would have been useful for moments like this. Right just now though, she'd press her lips against his having finally abandoned those teasing mouth movements at the side of his face. "That's a good man~" she mentioned after the peck and she'd extricate herself from his lap.

Given Ozzy's own agreement, she expected after standing that he would be too. It would take Nikki mere seconds to remove her top, which was barely more than a gentle slip of fabric. She tossed, more than willing to pick it up some other time. Those sweatpants she wore were just as easy to remove as well and would fall to the floor pretty easily after sliding down her hips. Ah, there was the little matter of that thong of hers too. The one thing that would actually take more than a single second to remove. Plain black in color she'd slip her fingers into the sides and stretch it gently to move it down her hips. Ah, all the while she took casual glances towards Ozzy, she was half bent over by now, but that was both for tease and functionality. After what felt to her like hours of built up excitement, she would be naked again and ready to occupy Ozzy's lap.

[Bloodedge]

An agreement was reached, and with it came the rise of Nikoleta. Ozzy would not be standing, interestingly enough. No, he sat in place while unfastening his belt and trousers. One heel ground against another to slip a shoe off, and the other followed soon after. All the while, his gaze was fixed. Nikki's shirt flew off her torso with haste, while Ozzy saw it as a glorious, slow-motion flourish feeding into his arousal. The same could be said of those sweatpants that he saw collapsing around her ankles. None of these maneuvers needed to be showy or anything of the sort, for Oliver to see them that way. He was never halted from his own progress... until Nikki was partially bent over and removing her undergarments in an obvious effort to tease. She did want him focused on getting rid of his clothes, right? Well, he was still going to get that done, even at a slower pace.

"Bloody hell, if I had a quid for every time you made me stop what I was doing─" he mused. It took nothing for him afterwards to slip out of his pants and boxers simultaneously. They'd be left on the floor not far from Nikki's own trousers, leaving Ozzy with nothing but a pair of black socks and a palpitating erection that seemed to be aiming straight up at his own face. Of course, he also still had that ever-present grin. He sat upon the couch with all the brass of a man who owned the building. Actually, he may as well have been the owner! Nikoleta Corbyn fancied him, and that placed him on a higher podium than any man on Earth could hope to reach!

[Apollymi]

Nikki's occasional glances in Ozzy's direction were rather telling. There was the matter that the man was always smiling and looked perfectly at home while pulling off his trousers and boxes from the seated position. Then there was the aside that his manhood was an entity unto itself. "Blimey," she muttered once more. This man was the image of perfection to Nikki, and beyond that he had so much on offer to her that she could hardly believe it was all for her. Though she'd been teasing him gently while half-bent over, his words reached her ears and made her chuckle just a little? "Well I haven't even done anything, on purpose yet~" she mused as well. So flirty these two managed to be, even while Ozzy looked like a king upon his throne at the height of his kingdom. Actually, Nikki quite fancied that as an idea... she'd save that for later.

Regardless now fully undressed she returned to the couch and Ozzy's lap, very gently rising herself and trapping his manhood between them. Such an undertaking needed a bit of a slow and steady approach at least for a little while, but at this angle she was quite in charge of it and left herself to hover over it. She'd gently move her hips about wetting the tip of him as she leaned over his face. It'd be a while yet before she settled back down into his lap, as such she'd used this time as an advantage. She'd kiss him softly while beginning that slow descent onto his manhood. This was exquisite. Could she really have this man all to herself with no drawbacks? Well, she had a dream of this and it seemed Ozzy shared it, so why shouldn't they make this happen?

[Bloodedge]

"Really?" Oliver questioned after hearing Nikki claim she'd done nothing on purpose. "Well, when comes the chance for me to be selfish and ask you to do something on purpose then?" As far as Ozzy was concerned, Nikki being bent at the waist and on full display was very purposeful... and his groin agreed wholeheartedly. If that wasn't intentional, what would she manage if she truly tried? He was almost dying to find out.

Ah yes, a king on his throne. That was certainly what the lad felt like, but a king required a queen. Luckily, his was on the way to her own throne, which happened to be his lap. She claimed her throne, slowly, carefully even. He couldn't blame her for the process; it had been the same way on the opposite end. Besides, he couldn't possibly complain about the sensations he felt from her sex rubbing against his tip, slicking it to prepare for an eventual smoother entry. Oh, and the kissing─ what an extra little treat that was. Gone was the urgency they once knew. Now, everything seemed so... affectionate, as if their earlier mentions of marriage had resulted in an actual engagement, and this was the celebration of upcoming nuptials. Ozzy decided to leave her to her own devices while they kissed. He resisted any urges to grab her hips, choosing instead to claim the sides of her face with both hands. That softness was not lost; no, it was returned in kind without failure. He met her with a gentleness matching the supple nature of her lips. No matter how much his loins screamed at him with nonsense─ ravage her, bend her backwards, pin her by the ankles and the like... there was only one way to answer this meeting, and it was the way Nikki initiated.

[Apollymi]

"Yeah, really~" answered Nikki. She truly wasn't trying to do anything specific. Well, aside from the current bout of seductive behavior, but nothing she'd done at the moment was outside of the ordinary for her behavior. Of course, he questioned when he would get to be selfish and ask that she do something on purpose. Hm, when indeed? "When the time comes, feel free to ask what you'd like... I'm not opposed to allowing you a spot of selfish indulgence~" she mentioned happily. Soon after though her mouth was rather occupied. She was kissing this man again and beginning to fall down upon his manhood. Gravity was doing a great deal of the work in this case, even so she couldn't help the small noises escaping her as she made her descent. Her mouth opening and her tongue seeking to gain entry into his mouth again. Of course, it was noted by her that the placement of Ozzy's hands weren't on her hips but instead around her face. She really should have been a bit more wary of such things, but given their previous interactions, his level of gentlemanly behavior and her own current actions, she had no problems with what was happening here.

It was more curious than anything that he was being so very soft, as if simply matching the energy that she was putting out. Not that she minded the urgency of their previous bout, she simply wished to claim him in the way she found most normal for herself. She wanted to enjoy him. And this was the method she chose for that enjoyment. And boy was it pleasurable. The soft shifting of her hips had begun as she took the movements of gentle pushing from above. It was torturous but she was enjoying it, that much was obvious by the gentle pulsing she felt within herself, her loins already slick enough to allow the coating she aimed for with these initially shallow movements. How long would she be able to keep up such deliberate pacing? She had no idea, but she would just to have a look at Ozzy from this angle. It would take quite a few moments but eventually those gentle movements would have her settle down further and further into his lap, until the tip of him brushed right against the end of her person. What a strange jolt of sensation that was, and when it happened she'd finally break their kiss.

[Bloodedge]

Oliver's indulgences would be allowed in future. That was very useful information and all, yet his current form of gratification came in the form of Nikki's desire. Tongues danced slowly as the lass prodded her way into his mouth again. Of course, her effort was hardly required to gain said entry. The more she worked her way onto his shaft, the more Oliver lost all ability to resist reactions, resulting in the natural opening of his mouth for the sake of loosing a gasp. Experience always dictated that endowment of his caliber came with easy access to a pleasurable experience. These lasses always felt tighter than they would have for more average tools. Even with that being the discovered truth, though, Nikki seemed to remain an exceptional case. Maybe it was the infatuation, or maybe he needed to thank his sister for the indirect workout routine advice she gave this woman.

Even though he had no intention of disturbing the ride Nikoleta chose for herself, Ozzy's instincts would not allow him to be idle. His hold of the lass' face was solid even while being gentle enough to cradle a newborn child. He may have been eclipsing her head from either side, but it wasn't as if he intended to crush it. Eventually, their lips were fated to part. This was no work of Oliver's, nor seemingly Nikki's full conscious effort. He knew the cause. He felt the cause as a battering ram would be halted by a barricade it hadn't the momentum to go through. As far as strange jolts were concerned, one reverberated its way through his length and into the core of his being. It was strange, experiencing such a thing from movements so gradual. Until Nikoleta, he'd never even bothered going to such length, and he certainly wouldn't have expected her to do as much of her own accord. "Fuck," he muttered in both shock and pleasure. Advantage was quickly taken of their parted lips. With the space created, his hands moved to guide Nikki's head upward. Ozzy needed just a bit of room to dive in, after which he had a mind to unleash the flat of his tongue upon her neck in one long, slow stroke up to her jawline.

[Apollymi]

Nikki was being allowed her indulgence, and it seemed that Ozzy was enjoying it as well. Actually, the opening of his mouth and his gentle cradling of her head and face implied that he was having as good a time as Nikki was herself. That was great. They could match in so many ways, and if he truly enjoyed even this approach then they would always have something in common. What was more... she was doing a slow grinding job of sending herself into madness. The slow movements of her hips and the thickness of his manhood allowed her a greater bit of sensation than she'd ever managed before. This position was one often chosen by women because it was easier to achieve flourish while being in control of ones own speed, and depth of penetration. In this case she'd chosen this method so she could bear witness to his face and as such she kept an eye on him. Though she was quite certain the visuals of this position would also be beneficial for him. Of course, when their mouths finally separated she was rewarded with a swear from the mouth of Ozzy. Oh? Was this truly something he enjoyed? It seemed so, that was for the best, because she was starting to enjoy this to a great extent.

"Ozzy!~" she moaned his name as he licked up her neck after tilting her face upward. Oh this was sensual, soft but very much appreciated. Oh, but then it was the matter of her movements huh? Her hips began shifting, once more in a rather slow rocking motion. Strangely, she was stirring herself up using the lad beneath her as a catalyst for her desire, and ever so gently brushing him against the end of her while she did it. Oh, and she was enjoying it... her body accepted this motion with gentle pulses and each and every movement seemed to begin pushing towards a flourish for the lass. Her hands would eventually be found resting against his shoulders, enjoying the sensation of his flesh while she moved about in his lap.

[Bloodedge]

If poor Oliver hadn't experienced ejaculation thrice the previous day, he'd undoubtedly be in danger this time. Since none of the pacing to this entry was his own doing, he could be still. Was that a good thing, a bad thing, or both? Well, no matter what, it was brilliant! It was as if he could feel every nook and cranny of her insides in fine detail. Every pulse and clench, every shift that was more easily executed than its predecessor─ it was all driving him mad. Worse yet was the moaning of his name. Was that alone better than sex? It might have been. It was so simple, but the mouth from whence it came caused him unexplainable pleasure.

His tongue's slow trail up her neck did end at Nikki's jawline, and there, he pressed his lips against her flesh. In the meantime, those hands of his slid their way down. Never did they part ways with Nikki's skin while gliding down her neck and torso. Each of her nipples were simultaneously brushed against, moments before his hands settled on her sides again. An extended exhale through the mouth, and Ozzy was able to formulate words despite his mind being a thousand places at once─ most of which were centered around the groin. "Say that again," he spoke against her skin, kissing her neck once more thereafter.

[Apollymi]

Nikki had experienced a set of flourishes in their previous meeting that she'd neither expected nor initially desired. Even so, she'd enjoyed them to a great extent. Right just now though, she was in charge of her own body and she knew to some measure exactly what it was she was chasing. Those soft movements of her hips gained their own rhythm just a gentle rocking which brought his manhood towards the end of her but also knocked around each of her walls. The sensation of it with something so girthy was beyond what she could have normally asked for and as such she was nothing but elated. Oh and she could feel it, the beginnings of that ever so pleasant sensation.

As if the physical feeling of it weren't enough there was the sound of Ozzy's voice again. Oh? He wanted something did he? For her to repeat herself... what had she recently said? Oh, that nickname of his... she'd moaned while her hips were rocking. Still, those hands gliding down her body, those little jolts of sensation caused when he brushed against her nipples, all of that brought her closer to her own demise. And what did this beautiful man want in return for all that she was taking from him in the moment? He expressed that simple desire for her to repeat his name, and how could she not? When his lips pressed against the skin of her neck she felt that internal clenching sensation caused by that external stimulus. "Ozzy..." she moaned again. But she did at least have a bit more to add herself this time, as her hips found and kept that rocking motion. "I'm pretty close now. If I keep going like this... I won't be able to stop~" she said it like it was even remotely an option. It truly wasn't... it was only a matter of time for her.

[Bloodedge]

Ah, there it was. So soon after he'd requested the repeat of his name, it was given. What's more, it came along with an additional clause regarding the encroaching climax of Nikki. He needed a moment. Between the sound of her moans and the grip of her nether, words were proving rather difficult to locate. Oliver's mouth opened several times as if to retort, but all he managed for multiple attempts was deep exhales. "Well what would you go and do that for?" was what he had to say─ a simple enough query. "We don't stop until you're good and sorted, right?"

Two questions were on the table, though Oliver didn't really expect an answer to either. No, what he expected was bliss given even as Nikki sought her own pleasure, and bliss was precisely what he received. If he observed things from the right angle, this was all like some sort of strange jock massage with the world's best oil at his disposal. He kept a firm grip on Nikki's sides, just under her ribcage without daring to hinder her own movements. It felt a bit strange to sit there doing nothing─ and yet, it felt far greater than anything he'd ever known. What could he do? At this rate, Nikki was doing more for him than she was doing for herself, regardless of whatever she was attempting. Though it was only a matter of time for her, time was something they had a great deal of. . .

[Apollymi]

Nikki was steadily moving toward her own end. Even at the point where Ozzy was asking questions of her, she seemed to simply be enjoying the sound of his voice as he held her. She could easily note that he wasn't hindering her in anyway, letting her move as she wished and simply being along for the ride... in a manner of speaking. Knowing that he had so much ability to care and not stop what was coming made her a bit more pliant than she'd initially realized. Actually, each movement of her hips was already pulling her apart at the seams, she could feel it. That tingle that spread starting from her core and spreading outward to the rest of her. Everything within her person wanted to go still at the sensation but she continued to shift her hips as her nether tightened and spilled more nectar from within. At this point, it would have cut off the feeling and she didn't wish for that. No, instead she chased it for several seconds longer allowing that pulsing feeling she currently enjoyed to be shared between the two of them.

Nikki knocked at the very depths of herself and felt elated by the sensation. Even as her own motions carried him well past that barrier she only seemed to relax more as her hips came to a gentle stop finally. "Fuck all, that's good. Can I start every morning like this?" finally managed to say. She truly didn't want it to end. Given Ozzy's own words it wouldn't have to... they went until she was well and sorted he said. He really had no idea how appealing such words were, perhaps one day, in the future she'd get around to mentioning it. Right now though... there was more to be had... and she'd take it. And after the briefest moments of fluttering her eyes would shift back to the lad beneath her.

[Bloodedge]

It was only natural that he avoided affecting Nikoleta's movements in any way; there was no way he could think to make any improvements on what was happening. There was no sensation to chase─ he had the best of it already. Clearly it wasn't enough for Nikki to 'pull herself apart at the seams' as it were; she had to be constantly pulling something vital from within Ozzy as well. Yes, that was how it felt in the end. He felt it in his core, constantly, the ever so gradual progression toward ejaculation. It was in his urethra. Was this preejaculate, or was it the fluid of Nikki herself slipping its way into him? He couldn't tell. There was too much going on, and the idea of finding an answer was lost to the internal curves and... eventually...

There it was again. That barrier at the conceivable end of Nikoleta's interior was reached by her own devices. Oliver received a bit of a pinch, sudden and sharp, very much unlike the previous day. Was it bad? No, not quite. Actually, he could call it a nice jolt added to the increased slickness found within the lass. Another jolt came in a more metaphorical sense, targeting his mind. Could Nikki have been serious with her words? Surely they were spur of the moment nonsense, but Ozzy thought somewhat differently about the matter. "Ah─ promise? I'd be cross if you said that, and I didn't at some point wake up to this. Don't take the piss out of me, eh?"

[Apollymi]

Having met the end of herself Nikki's movements stopped for a moment. After that, little slip of the tongue of her words, Ozzy seemed to have a reply, but nothing negative to say about the actions she'd taken thus far. A small sound escaped him as she looked into his face and Nikki took in this expression with wide eyes. His claims met her ears and she chuckled, though she'd allowed those words to fall in the heat of the moment, Nikki strangely meant exactly what she said. She leaned into Ozzy's face in the moment, her hips restarting their movements as she pushed him further into herself and then back out so he was knocking against the end of her once more as she moved her hips in gentle circles. "Well, wouldn't want you to be cross or anything... consider it a promise~" she said as she pressed her lips into his. She really could do this every morning and be completely satisfied by it. She had a strange amount of joy and desire when having Ozzy reach new depths within her, and she could and would have it be so at any time. Ah and with those little circular movements of her hips, she planned indeed to continue moving until she drew a certain thing from Ozzy as well.

It would go without saying for quite a while, that there was an obvious implication of keeping Ozzy around. Actually, the truth of the matter was, Nikki was already more than willing to accept Oliver as her boyfriend. She was certain that there was no one who would ever be more perfect for her. And after chatting with her sister this morning she realized there were no real negatives in giving them an honest chance. Especially when he showed back up to her room, ready to spend the whole convention with her.

[Bloodedge]

Well, that was unexpected. Ozzy would have been overjoyed if Nikki meant her earlier words. If only it were possible to greet every new day from betwixt her folds, life would be magnificent! Oh... but her response to his response was... what? That didn't make sense. No way was that an appropriate answer to banter or pillow talk, so... oh. She was serious. As lips were puckered to meet a kiss, eyelids grew further apart from each other. Impossible! Could he really expect this every day as a 'good morning' equivalent? That shouldn't be possible, but the idea that Nikki even entertained such a thing was incredible already. How could he resist grinning from ear to ear, even against Nikki's lips? Probably as easily as he could avoid the intensifying throb of his cock, which was about... not at all.

Now that he thought about it─ or rather, now that he felt it, there was something Oliver could do in this situation. Just as she had been for well over a year without even knowing it, Nikki was the cause of his constant throbbing. What if he made a tactic of that? Her ride was renewed, and with it came the initiation of Ozzy's plan to force his own throbbing at each descent. Every time he encountered that wall at the end of her, there was a very purposeful pulse. Meanwhile, the avoidance of an idle tongue resulted in Oliver seeking entry into the lass' mouth this time around.

[Apollymi]

Nikki after rejoining their lips was left to wonder if Ozzy realized how serious she was being. Ah, she supposed she'd be able to tell him at some point. Or maybe just waking him up the next morning in a similar fashion would be enough. Ah... it probably wasn't good that she was already thinking far enough ahead to encompass moments in the future. But surely a man like Ozzy with no fear of commitment wouldn't have any sort of problem with what she was doing. And what was she doing? Moving her hips around with a gentle rise and fall to prod at her end with Ozzy betwixt her thighs. Oh but beyond the meeting of their lips, there was a certain throbbing.

While Nikki moved her hips against Ozzy, whenever his girth struck against her depths there were a certain extra pulsing sensation. Surely that wasn't something accomplished on purpose. Ah, but it was happening so frequently, it had to be purposeful... brilliant. She couldn't stop the moan that escaped her mouth as it happened a certain while in, and when her mouth opened, it was filled by Ozzy's tongue. How could she do anything but lavish the visitor back, while enjoying the sensation being offered her? She couldn't so she didn't try to, now those hands of hers were on the move again, back to being buried within Ozzy's locks as she rode him towards her next cycle of bliss. This really would be a great way to start every single day.

[Bloodedge]

There wouldn't be a single complaint or opposing suggestion from Ozzy, if this were to be their greeting toward one another each day. If they were truly in the same proverbial boat, he wouldn't even care if only one of them happened to be awake to initiate such a scene in the morning. Time would tell the truth of their agreement. Currently, all of that was nothing but a source of excitement fueling preexisting arousal.

Ozzy's decision seemed to be working. His tongue was granted entry to the lass' maw, but that allowance came from a moan during which her mouth opened. How very amusing. His conscious throbbing would of course continue, but his tongue retreated into his own mouth briefly to allow speech. "Like that, huh?" he teased. He knew where that particular moan came from, and he knew he could take the blame for it. Idle as he was, Ozzy would not be totally absent in his current seated position. Even as he spoke though, his lips never truly pulled away from Nikki's. There would be none of that; no, he had to be in close enough proximity to enter her mouth again at a moment's notice. Of course, that was his intention as soon as his final word was spoken.

[Apollymi]

Whether the pair knew it or not, they were both aligned in their thoughts about the best way to start the morning. Nikki was also of the opinion that she wouldn't care if only one of them was awake to start the festivities. What a great way for them to greet and enjoy each other! Speaking of greetings, that throbbing sensation that happened in his manhood as it brushed against the end of her person. Of course, when Ozzy withdrew from her mouth, as brief and short a distance as that was, it was simply to ask her a question which had to be rhetorical. Of course, she liked it, it was a great addition to an already sensational set of feeling. Those movements of her hips didn't stop, but she also wasn't allowed an immediate retort because he was back within the confines of her mouth as soon as he'd finished speaking. This was fine, she'd continue teasing his tongue with her own for a few seconds while her hips moved in slowly growing circles. Oh... it was coming again, and at a much more intense rate considering the pulse of his manhood against that of her own depths. She'd break their kiss again herself if only because she couldn't stop a moan from escaping her. "Haah~ It's brilliant! I didn't know you'd tease me like this, Ozzy~" she managed finally before she sank back in. Now that she had exactly the speed and rhythm she was looking for it was simply a matter of time before she found that great feeling again. As a hint of it this time, there was a semi-constant clenching occurring within the lass. With Ozzy knocking against the end of her and throbbing, it wasn't like she could avoid the tightening feeling which was the build up of her next flourish. What little thing would push her over the edge this time? She didn't know, but she was rather keen to find out.

[Bloodedge]

Infinite potentials were ahead of these two. One day, they would both come to understand this ultimate truth. Today may not have been such a day, but it was a massive stepping stone toward the unknown eternity of their future. Nothing mattered but this. The simple fact that Nikki's tongue was there to meet his own as it breached the barrier of her lips, was more than enough for Ozzy. Of course, that wasn't all there was to this ordeal, was it? Nikki was rather busy moving herself about in his lap, taking on a circular pattern with what felt like an omnipresent grip around his member. Luckily for Ozzy, their kiss wasn't broken by him this time. Of course, it would have been if Nikki didn't do so first, as there was a hefty breath needing to escape him as well. "Not much else I can do, is there? Doing all that on your own, I've got to come up with something," he responded. Ah, this clench was dangerous indeed. There was hardly a question in his mind now as to whether he'd sprung a leak within Nikki or not, as he could now feel the encroachment of his final moments as well. That wouldn't mean much, surely. This was Nikoleta Corbyn, after all; Ozzy would surely have no difficulty remaining firm in the aftermath of ejaculation. "On your way, eh? I'm almost ready to have a go myself─"

[Apollymi]

The realm of infinity was indeed before this pair, whether they knew it today, tomorrow or some unknown day in the future. Right about now though there was a certain kind of moment encroaching and Nikki was aiming to meet it head on. After meeting Ozzy's tongue and then breaking that kiss to speak she was all but elated to hear the man's voice again even as her hips twirled in his lap. He had to do something because she was doing everything else herself huh?? A chuckle escaped the lass as she leaned in... "Well that was sort of the point, to get us both sorted~" she mused as she leaned into his neck. The lad whose lap she practically danced in had a bit of news to share as well. As close as she was to her next flourish he was apparently close as well. A wicked grin spread across her lips as she pressed her face into the side of his neck. She spoke softly against his ear, having no desire to extricate herself from his lap. "Oh? That's bloody good timing isn't it?" she questioned not stopping what she was doing nor making any moves to shift out of his lap. "You can have that go, inside if you like~" she whispered to the lad. She really wasn't planning on getting rid of him or anything. And he kept making the claim that she could have him as she liked. She had been on birth control for most of her teen years, accidental pregnancy wasn't something she worried about at all. Though she generally waited a bit longer to announce such things... she'd been making exceptions for Ozzy since she met him... there was no reason to stop allowing them now. Actually the thought of such a thing alone made her body almost demand it, that clenching of her nether seemed to happen on its own as she continued the rhythm which would lead her to flourish in just a few passing moments.

[Bloodedge]

Maybe Nikki did have the right of it, taking things into her own hands to sort them both out for the morning. Still, Ozzy couldn't resist his own actions. There was still too much to learn. He had to know what worked for her so he could make it happen. He had to know what didn't work, so he could avoid it. Most importantly, he had to find out what thing could be done to send her over the edge like nothing ever had, or ever could.

Sadly, it would not be Ozzy to make such a discovery just yet. It would instead be Nikki who stumbled upon a trigger for nigh-instant gratification, and it came in the form of her go-ahead for Ozzy's release. What did she mean? Well, there were options─ it wasn't like this was the first time Ozzy heard such an offer. Perhaps she was on some form of birth control, or maybe it was one of those 'safe days' women were always going on about. There was also the final option, in which neither of those things were true... and she didn't care if she wound up impregnated. The final possibility was precisely what kept Ozzy from reacting to such provocation in previous scenarios, but... this was different. This was Nikoleta Corbyn, whom he could not back down from. Even if she said to impregnate her, he'd do it without so much as a second thought─ maybe even quicker. Regardless, whilst being startled by Nikki's claim, he was sure to acquiesce. It almost seemed as if shock value alone brought the man to orgasm, though perhaps the fault lay just as much with that clenching sensation he felt at her every rise. One lift, and it began. By the time he touched the end of her again, there was a gasp... and a spurt. This was certainly new. As if Nikki's fluids alone weren't enough, he could feel the mixture washing over him now. What would Nikki do with it though, he wondered. Would it be the end, or would she think to torture him again by continuing her movements? Or, would there perhaps be another answer? Once more, he was dying to find out the lass' next decision.

[Apollymi]

Nikki did indeed discover something very interesting. That a single sentence could cause nigh instantaneous relief in Ozzy. How much was he used to holding out that such a thing happened so instantly? Or was it just her? Again she had many questions but they all seemed to eventually wander back to why Ozzy went so far on her account. Regardless, she experienced a strange amount of satisfaction. She was no stranger to the sensation of such a release, but it was quite different to experience it while one had such a far reaching tool. That last nudge at her end and the added sensation of the spurt with its sudden filling of her canal caused her eyes to widen as bliss over took her. Of course, this would come with the added tightness of her nether before her body relaxed leaking those fluids down the space. The gentle moan that escaped her did so against the side of this man's neck as she raised herself gently off his manhood though that didn't stop the gentle squeeze being applied to it.

"That was pretty shocking Ozzy~" she said in a manner most teasing as she allowed the tip of him to just as gently nudge at her opening. "Mmm, I really like it though," she admitted softly. "But I did say I'd entertain a selfish request or two..." she mused. To be technical she had decided to claim this lad as she wanted, and she had, all the way up to his proper finish. In fairness, she'd give more if he wanted more but she'd been rather pushy about this, so it was time to entertain a bit more of what this lad actually wanted, whatever that happened to be. "So, what do you want Ozzy?" she asked of the man as her lips gently pressed against the side of his face. There after she looked at him awaiting his answer, would he want her to continue? Did he wish to change position? Did he want to actually have breakfast? Whatever the case, she was ready for any eventuality.

[Bloodedge]

What a relief that was. Ozzy's head was almost spinning, though his groin continued to throb away within Nikki as she lifted herself. Ah, that wasn't just some simple lift. Simultaneous orgasm had been achieved, and in the afterglow of it, that crippling tightness remained. Ozzy simply couldn't go soft. If he did, he may have been crushed by the pressure! No, surely that was just some ridiculous thought in the moment. Either way, with Nikki against his neck, he reached out to place his hand against the back of hers. She didn't need to move just yet─ not at all. "That's not the half of it. You think you're shocked?" he questioned, his breath reduced to an erratic state.

Nikki mentioned her allowance of some selfish indulgences. What an interesting time to do so, and to ask what it was Ozzy wanted. What did he want? Rather, what would he say he wanted? "Well it's not like I'm short on things I'd fancy doing to you," was his first comment. What even were the limits? He'd like to believe the sky, but that was surely asking for too much. Oliver didn't simply want to do things; he wanted her to enjoy the things he did. Ah... now was the time to put himself fully on the table, he supposed. "I want..."

A clause hung in the air. He didn't need to finish it just yet, so he took the time to wrap his free arm around Nikki's midsection. While standing, he lifted her as well. Off to the bedroom─ that would be the only place suitable for his current desire. With every step, his still-pulsing phallus remained just barely within the lass he carried. Eventually, he was lowering her onto her own bed, and lowering himself over her. Now was the time to complete that sentence, nearly a minute out from its start. When he spoke, he took the time to lift her legs. His knees found the mattress; they would both need to be fully atop it as Nikki's legs were pushed back, back, and back even more. Could her knees reach the mattress as her undercarriage rose into him? He'd find out while those golden hues stared hungrily into that adorable little face of hers. Oliver often wore a happy grin, but for Nikki, he had another─ one that nearly sported a pair of fangs. "I want you..." he said while continuing the effort to pin her knees against the mattress. "... to admit something." Still not done, it was time to push his girth into her again. The additional lubrication of earlier would be quite useful, but only so much, considering the angle he was aiming for. "I want you looking at me every day like you look at your new favorite project. I want you to say I'm yours, and you're mine. And honestly, I want to see if I can make you look piss drunk and completely mental while I'm having at you, just so I know I'm having an effect. That alright with you, Nikki?"

[Apollymi]

Oh? Nikki wasn't the only person shocked? The purple haired lass could believe that given Ozzy's erratic breathing and the current still throbbing state of his manhood. Strange though it was, Ozzy's hand was soon found at the back of her neck, while she buried her face within the crook of his neck. This gesture was strangely comforting and she couldn't really resist settling into it. The movement implied that she didn't need to move just yet, so she didn't. She was left instead to wait curiously for the answer to her posed question. "Keeping a list then?~" she teased only slightly. She was quite interested in his response. It was obvious to her that Oliver was obsessed with her, there were probably loads of things he wished to do with her, but what she couldn't know was the depth of that obsession. Beyond her growing appreciation of him as a person without his saying so she couldn't know exactly what it was he wanted from her.

But she was about to find out. Though it took him a while to get around to it. A whole minute in fact, he eventually got around to expressing his immediate desire. He'd stated he wanted something, but that statement was left hanging open in the air. Even as he stood and carried her off with him. Even as she giggled just a tad from the suddenness of the movement. What else would occur before he spoke into existence his actual desire? A position change... on top of her bed in this five star suite, Nikki was placed on her back on the comfort of the mattress. Her legs were pushed back far, very easily actually, even while he stayed at his place just in front of her. He climbed in as well pushing further and further. Until her own knees met the mattress behind her as well and her sex was left up in the air.

He wanted her to admit something?! That was shocking, and for more reasons than one. Considering he was pushing himself back inside her. Even with their previous expelled liquids as lube such a thing was tenuous especially from this angle. Such a thing was normally undertaken because the reach couldn't be made normally, Ozzy could reach such spot at full rest, even so as he pushed in, she couldn't help the moan that escaped her while she looked up into this man's face. Those golden eyes, and that smile that seemed more like a beast than a man. Oh, he looked like he really could gobble her up at any moment, and she... liked that as an idea. But there was much more to his statements then just that. He wanted her to look at him like she did her projects. He wanted her to belong to him and he wanted to belong to her?! He wished to drive her crazy and see the results of it on her face?! What an outlandish thing to say! Commitment offered with reckless abandon as well as that throbbing member making its way into herself. Nikki stared into that perfect face of his and met those golden eyes with her large purple ones. She really could stare into that face forever, being fascinated by those golden eyes. She would also be the first to admit he had a great cock, she could take this man the way he wished. She looked a bit sheepish. "Blimey, that's more than alright with me, Ozzy." She admitted. Though this wasn't at all the type of conversation she thought she'd be having when she'd mentioned that... the little itch in the back of her mind was there once more. Why shouldn't she lay claim to this perfect specimen of a man in every way humanly possible?

[Bloodedge]

Starting a proper list may have been a good idea, now that the idea had been presented. Doing such a thing would actually let him start checking things off in sequence, he thought. Why didn't he consider that before now? Ozzy's biggest problem was that he wanted an infinite number of things, and had no real clue where to begin. Maybe a list could be made, and then some random lottery choice could be made in future? That would be fun.

Nevertheless, his full desire was laid bare as the two bodies placed atop the bed. Nikoleta's moans struck his ear like a soothing melody, though also like some audible aphrodisiac. Blood flow to his groin could not be halted in its crowing intensity. The already arduous process of inserting himself into Nikki became just a bit more challenging as that noise reached him, almost as if his body intended to draw out more during the breaching process. Ah, it wouldn't be long yet. Already past the halfway mark, Oliver kept pushing. More and more, he drove that singular thrust. This was no longer a simple matter of having sex. As their eyes locked during his little stare-down against Nikoleta, his aim was to fully lay claim to her body the way he intended to eventually claim her mind. The latter would be a process of undetermined length, but this... he could surely do in a single day. It seemed to be functioning quite well already, and this was just beginning.

More than alright, Nikki said. Good; he'd keep that in mind. Yet another victorious grin crossed Ozzy's visage as his next words came forth. "Atta girl. No regrets~" he chirped. With that, his gradual approach reached its end with the initiation of a more... natural thrust. He'd find his progress in laying claim to mind, body and soul one way or another. In this particular case, it almost seemed as if he intended to mold her canal to his shape, stretching her interior until his full shaft fit within, as if to make it a sleeve. "I'll start here then, eh? I'm guessing you don't mind not being able to go out tonight either."

[Apollymi]

Whether Ozzy had a list, or made one, wasn't really important to Nikki. What was important to the lass, was that he was content to see those things and do them... with her. There was something innately satisfying about being someone's first choice. Leave it to Ozzy to blow that expectation out of the water by making it appear that Nikki was his only choice! And going on from the point of her interest in him, to lay claim on her in a way that she'd never been claimed before.

He pushed into her depths with no real urgency. That being said it was full of something else. She could practically feel herself stretching around him. Nikki could tell her body was tightening against him aiming to hold on to him, even as he pushed further and further in. It was unreal the depth she felt at this point and it was far too good to deny. That soft moan continued far longer than it normally would have and she couldn't stifle it even if he tried. What was he doing to her at this point? She couldn't even tell, but it was delightful. This was far beyond the act of two infatuated individuals having a pre-breakfast shag... that was clear even to Nikki at this point. And oh, what was this? As she looked up into Ozzy's face, even while feeling the push into her depths she saw a smile? Oh what a great looking face that was. It was gorgeous!~ What did she have to do to see that smile all the time? Her mind was on fire with a burning desire to claim that one for herself. It was hers, she wanted to be the only one to ever see it. No regrets? She had none, only this feeling that was pushing her closer and closer to a future with him. "Fuck! Ozzy~" she moaned out just those two words...

He was ruining her and she was loving it! And as his more natural thrust began, Nikki was more certain now than before that she'd never properly enjoy this with anyone else. The idea of being a bit hypnotized by a nice cock was gone from the lass' mind. She was now more than fully aware that it wasn't just that which brought her to Ozzy. Still, if this was where he was starting, she had no hope of even putting up the front of a resistance. And... she wouldn't even try. "If this is the start... I'm done for, but I don't care about out. In's more fun!~" she explained when she finally caught her breath enough. How often was she going to be able to keep talking? She was unsure. What was more, she probably should have been a bit more worried that it was early in the morning and Ozzy was already speaking about the night of this day... Oh well, why not?

[Bloodedge]

Ah, breakfast had been the intention when Oliver woke this morning. At this point, he couldn't feel or remember the hunger of earlier. He did feel a hunger of a different variety, and he would go about sating that sense of starvation. As for what he was doing, well... he was simply enacting the master plan while answering his own desires. He could see it in her face; his efforts were paying dividends rather consistently. By the time he managed to fully bury himself within her, Ozzy was more than ready to begin the process with utmost purpose. A squelching retreat fought against those collapsing walls, rubbing with a fair amount of friction despite the extra dosage of lubrication found within.

According to Nikki, she was done for if this was the start. Ah, but it was indeed only the beginning. They had all day, didn't they? Ozzy didn't plan on spending the full day plunging into the woman's undercarriage as he was beginning to do now, but it was obviously something liable to happen at any moment, based on how things had been between them thus far. Hell, the sexual tension alone somehow managed to rival the physical tension enshrouding Oliver's tool as he thrust his hips to and fro. "That's somethin' I like to hear," he commented when Nikki spoke of staying in, as opposed to going out. Of course, he also took such a statement multiple ways. "Gotta agree as well; in's pretty great. I think I'll go in again~"

[Apollymi]

Nikki found herself at Ozzy's mercy even while staring into his face from this angle. She was quite honest, staying in all day with him, was in general a much more appealing day than anything else. She wasn't really that into going out in the first place. She did so a lot, but to be honest she'd rather be comfortable and at home with someone she was interested in.

Speaking of interests the withdrawal of Ozzy came with increased friction and much more tension than she would have expected given her earlier two climaxes. Even so, there was something just so gently appealing about this feeling, that she found herself swooning and unable to properly relax. At he was still talking too, even while beginning to move his hips properly. That was wonderful! And yet, it was also undoing her... she hadn't been joking... she'd never find relief until the very end if he did it like this... well, she supposed that wasn't so bad. Nikki looked up and saw Ozzy's face in the moment, as he claimed he'd go again and couldn't help but be elated. "Alright then, go as you like, I can't stop myself either~" she mused. A finish was coming and she was in no position to guide it either way. It was strange to be this much at another person's mercy but as it stood, each of his forward plunges stroked her depths and hit everyone of her clutching walls. What was she to do other than reveal in the sensation. Instead of that gently building tingle throughout her body, it would be like he was battering away at a barrier... eventually, the sensation would just come pouring out of her, along with extra lubrication and the shift backwards as it tried not to collapse under the weight of pleasure. Ah, but that wouldn't happen, Nikki would give in and eventually those eyes of hers would close as she felt the deepest of strokes along with the release of her body's tensions in this position. "OZZY!~" she moaned his name as she finished in this position. Nikoleta Corbyn had come to an amazing conclusion earlier and it was reverberating down to her very soul now, she'd never let Oliver Williams go. At present, she was going to make a series of irrational decisions but they'd pretty much all end with her and him together... damned be the consequences.

[Bloodedge]

Nothing would be stopped on either end this day. Ozzy hadn't a clue when they would wrap things up, and in truth, it wasn't even a thought for him. With that being the case, he would soon adopt an approach wielding even further comfort in his own actions. Nikki was doing a wonderful job of easing his reprehensions with every word, every climax, and every grip of his member, and his response to such a thing was becoming clearer over time. The orgasm of Nikki was upon her. What a wonderful thing it was, typically to be considered a sign of conclusion... but not for Ozzy─ not in this case at all. He would instead use it as something of a green light, vigor consuming his every motion as his core became the source of all movement.

Nikki spoke earlier of utilizing his sister's workout advice, so surely she was no stranger to regular stretches, he assumed. Perhaps that would make his gamble worthwhile. Either way, he considered it worthwhile to lift his lower body off the bed just a bit, bearing most of his weight against Nikki's legs as he kept them pinned. In doing so, Ozzy freed himself to perform every thrust with his abdomen. Depth was more easily sustained, and the fervor of his plunging was easily amplified by the strength of his core being in use. Ozzy almost seemed to be dancing in some strange, snakelike manner, the way his spine oscillated to fuel his thrusts. The end result, however, was a series of long withdrawals and equally long forward movements.

[Apollymi]

Ozzy was a strange man in many cases. Experience had previously conditioned Nikki to expect her finish to herald the end of a session. That was usually just the case right... a reasonable guy was working and holding himself back to make sure the lass he was with was sorted before his own end. She was used to that as an aspect, but she was finding Ozzy to be very different in his approach. The truth was, whenever she mentioned finishing he was usually way further behind, and his actions changed from that point forwards. Case in point, her current moaning finish of his name was met by the man shifting his own position slightly. Her own legs were used as further leverage for him to relax his weight a bit more and she felt no discomfort from this change.

What was her reward then, for minding her stretches on a daily basis? Well it was the snaking movements of Ozzy's hips, which gave her more variable movements of him within her depths. He could go deeper withdraw farther and stimulate her more. Oh, that was doing great things... terrible things but great. Being pinned in such a way she could do nothing but accept it, still her mouth fell open to speak on this, "Aaaah~ Ozzy..." she started before her body tightened just a little, a small hiccup occurred in her speech. "Fuck all, that's great!~" she sang his praises. She didn't now why she liked this but she knew she did for a fact. Just like she liked the depth he seemed so easily capable of reaching within her. Whatever the case, she'd ride this feeling to her next flourish.

[Bloodedge]

Perfection. Nikki offered no complaints about supporting his weight with her legs, leaving Ozzy free to thrust away with nigh-reckless abandon. He wasn't very apt to show restraint at this point, harboring only the hope that his efforts would be received well. Lo and behold, if the general noises passing Nikki's lips didn't tell the tale on their own, her words soon did more than enough to portray her feelings on the matter. Thrice, her mouth had opened, and thrice, his name had been spoken. One day, Oliver may develop a mind to make that a custom notification for something─ yes, that would be wonderful! "God damn, don't ever say my name any different than that," he insisted─ technically in jest.

Time passed minutes by the moment with Oliver never ceasing. He had stamina to spare, thanks in part to how easily he was managing to slide into and out of the lass. Sadly, all things had to see their limit... though it didn't really have to be sad. The efforts of his core could be repurposed, even redirected. Buckling down to his knees again, Ozzy loosed his hold on Nikki's legs, nearly flopping his torso onto her own while his hips took on the remainder of the work. An upward angle to his thrusts was the result of this, but the true positive came from the fact that he could now reach the face he'd been staring down into for so long. Moreover, unoccupied arms could slip between Nikki and the mattress. That feral position became something more akin to an embrace, albeit with incredible vigor being applied just below the beltline. Regardless of said labor, Ozzy couldn't let things remain so simple. It had been far too long since he tasted part of Nikoleta, and the part he was choosing now was... her neck. Lips closed around flesh above the young woman's collarbone, and he sucked that very flesh into his mouth with animosity matching that of his hips.

[Apollymi]

Oh? Oliver had expressed a great many things he liked about Nikki in the time that they'd been spending together. In this particular moment, he declared that she should only say his name the way she did. She made an assumption that he liked the way it sounded when she said his name mid-coitus and it was implied to be somewhat joking as a demand. That being said... what she knew of the lad so far, led her to believe it was only partly a jest. She'd mention this as a curiosity while her body inched closer and closer to flourish. "I can do that, as long as you like it... Ozzy~" she almost teased.

Almost because there was another shift coming and with it his face and body were brought in closer to hers. Actually her legs were freed and he continued to move rather vigorously within her. Each shift now was made while holding her body closely. Still quite savage, though she didn't mind that, and very much the sort of thing she would admit to liking. Now somewhat free her hips shifted to meet those thrusts and she found that sensation to be optimal along with something else. If she'd been inching closer and closer to flourish the entire time, Ozzy's face meeting her neck would be her exact undoing. That spot on her neck he so aptly sucked upon was like a trigger for her lower body, causing an immediate release of her nether. "Bloody hell are you doing to me?" she asked rhetorically, as she reached the ultimate tension and rode it for several seconds thereafter. After all, she was more than a little aware of what had just happened. It was marked on Ozzy physically as her arms surrounded him, her fingers gently clawing along his back as he dove into her fully, she was able to bask in the sensation he offered her. Even her legs would soon be found clamped around his waist as if to hold him at his deepest stroke as her body tightened around him pulsing that release. She couldn't imagine what she had to look like, her vision was full of stars and black dots... it truly wasn't fair for him to have pushed her so far, but she could do nothing but enjoy it to the fullest.

[Bloodedge]

Despite the joking nature he presented with his words, it seemed Nikki was already capable of seeing right through to his true meaning. How interesting. She must've really been paying attention to his mannerisms thus far, to have taken him even somewhat seriously with a line like that. Not only did she take him seriously─ Nikki even responded in kind, teasing in her tone as she spoke his name yet again. Was she trying to drive him mad? If so, she was succeeding with ease. "Jesus, that'll be the end of me, it will," he said upon releasing her neck of his mouth's grasp. Right back in he'd go, though; Oliver somewhat intended to leave a bit of a mark behind. So, until he was certain the skin would bruise, he'd continue assaulting that same visible portion of Nikoleta's neck for... all the good reasons, of course.

The best decision Ozzy could have made, was likely letting go of Nikki's legs. With this newfound freedom, she made some decisions of her own while her nether unleashed its next crest. Alongside the movement of her hips to meet his thrusts, both arms and legs were wrapped around the lad. Her legs kept him buried within her as her walls convulsed around him. In the meantime, he felt the gentle scratching of her nails, along his back, and his muscles tightened against them in response. As for what she looked like, well... Ozzy only had the ability to see her face from one side at the time, but he wasn't at all displeased with the look in her eye. While holding still within the lass, Ozzy came to realize something─ something he hadn't been thinking about until he felt such movement around his groin while it remained motionless. He was constantly in a state of near-orgasm himself, leaving him mostly helpless against the shifting walls of Nikki. Her body behaved as if it wished to claim his seed, and it would get just what it wanted if that were the case. That instant impulse was something Oliver naturally fought against, albeit in vain for the most part. He was... squirting just a bit of ejaculate to start, almost as if he thought it could be stopped; it couldn't. Another bout of throbbing was upon him as more spilled out, a sensation which took hold of his every fiber, and even affected the intensity with which he consumed Nikki's neck. He almost bit it... almost. He could not, however, bring himself to let loose long enough to do so.

[Apollymi]

Getting to know Ozzy was Nikki's prime objective. She'd already decided that she wanted to keep him around, and given this knowing all there was to know about him, was the next step in her plan. Of course the teasing way she'd presented her curiosity and his basic confirmation of his not really joking statement made her even more happy. She was glad she'd understood him well, and wished to continue the trend. Of course, doing so would require them to eventually disengage in their current activity but it was far too alluring right now to want to stop.

Right at the moment, Ozzy was stopped within her and her legs were clamped around him. She felt the flexing of his muscles against her hands and couldn't help but strengthen her grip a bit, digging her nails in just a bit deeper. That was mostly a response to the throbbing she felt within her core and that ever so gentle spillage. How?! It seemed that Ozzy was letting himself loose within her body again. "Ozzy!~" she moaned his name again as she rode that wave of pleasure, waiting for her body to stop convulsing around his manhood, even as it seemed to aim to squeeze him for all he was worth. Oh, and there was the matter of that tightened grip on her neck by Ozzy's mouth. Work as he wanted, there would definitely be a mark left behind by the almost bite and suction he applied. Nikki was a bit prone to having such bruises, it used to be a point of great embarrassment for her. As she got older she didn't mind them at all, getting one from Ozzy would be considered a bit of a prize by the lass. Eventually though, her body would relax enough to loosen her grip on the lad and her legs would slide back down as she aimed to release him from her clutches. That being said it was pretty clear to her that he didn't mind that she'd trapped him within her body as he reached climax as well.

[Bloodedge]

As for things to be considered prizes, there were multiple in effect. That mark soon to appear on Nikki's neck may have been considered such for her, but it was undoubtedly a grand trophy for Ozzy. Given its placement, others would undoubtedly see it, and that... was infinitely satisfying as an idea. Ah, but there was another bout of marking being performed here─ multiple marks, even. Nikki was already clutching his back, but he was suddenly quite sure there would be blood under her nails in a matter of moments from the added intensity of said grip. Oddly enough, he was more than fine with that. Actually, he could easily say it was an incredible sensation added to his own release. Ozzy grunted against her neck, and that grunt devolved into a long sigh as his mouth released the skin previously held captive.

Oliver was allowed some space to retreat as well. Yes, that should be his next move. Alas, he was still spewing and breathing heavily enough that he shouldn't have been moving much at all. Would he refrain from moving, though? No... he'd do anything but. "Hah... I think you've bloody killed me," he commented with an insignificant snicker. Despite this, it didn't seem Ozzy had much post-orgasm clarity... or did he? Never did a second thought cross him, other than the thought that he couldn't let this chase of Nikoleta Corbyn end─ ever. He hadn't gone flaccid just yet. His ejaculation was reaching the end of its spurt, just a bit more spewing from his tip into Nikki's depths, but... if he was quick enough on the uptake. . .

"Hope you're still taking those selfish requests," he said. Why would he say such a thing? Simply put, he could go for one more round. He could take just a bit more for himself, right? Right! What would he do though? What could he do? There was so much left on that infinite list in his head. Ah, but he could always be fair. If he was intending to take something for himself, it was only right that he make an offering as well. With that in mind, he took the decision out of his own hands. "One more go? C'mon," he said, breaking briefly to press his lips against her neck again─ gently this time. "Tell me what you like. Anything, everything, whatever you want."

[Apollymi]

Nikki was mildly aware that she'd probably marked up Ozzy's back while he poured himself into her. She should be nice and help out with that... had to sting a bit at least. Oh well, even as her body relaxed his own didn't seem to achieve that same level of relaxation. He even claimed she'd killed him after finally releasing her neck. "Come off it, Ozzy~ No one's killed ya', if anything I'm the one who's dying here~" she teased. This man was going to be her undoing. She couldn't say no to him and she found herself in a strange state of semi-constant arousal when he was near. She'd liken it to inspiration but that wasn't it. She found him attractive in the best possible ways and wanted more of him whenever she could have it. Damn it all, she hadn't been this horny as a teen.

Ah but it would seem she wouldn't even have to express such a shameful thing as her new semi-constant state of arousal. Why? Because Ozzy was still moving and asking if she was still taking selfish requests. "Well, at this point its hardly selfish... but out with it~" she mused. She'd reached a state of relaxation but even so she was content. What was more the gentle press of Ozzy's lips against her neck was enough to elicit a squeezing sensation within her nether. This man could literally talk her into just about anything given the way he treated her body. One more go? That's what he wanted. "Fuck all, I thought I was gonna have to be the one to ask~" she stated honestly. Nikki might have reached a certain level of insatiable. That wasn't a negative for Ozzy though... she wanted to have more of him, in all the ways she could. Perhaps it was just him, or maybe her choice to represent herself with a bunny was a bit more accurate than the world would ever understand. She moved aiming to shift her own position while helping the lad slip out of her person. She showed this man her back again, raising her bottom into the air while she stretched in an almost cat-like manner presenting herself to be entered in this way. "If I can have anything I want... then how about like this?" she gave a playful wink and a gentle little shifting of her hips. She didn't assume it would require too much more for the lad to take her the way she wished. Ozzy was pretty on demand after all.

[Bloodedge]

She was dying? Madness! Oliver had been unraveled over the course of the pair getting to know each other, and the individual strings that made him were being further shredded apart even now. What was he to do? Well, one could only hope the magnificent designer he left himself in the care of could fashion him into a fabric she considered worth... wearing.

Hardly selfish, she said. If anything, Ozzy couldn't have been more selfish than he was being by seeking another round. Luckily, Nikki happened to be just as raring to go as the man himself, implying that she would have been making the same request if he hadn't been the one to do so. Needless to say, Ozzy was elated to hear such a thing. It had been a dream of his for ages to have her as interested in him, as he was in her. "That's exactly what I was on about. You're ending me with that," he stated. With that, Nikki was mobile again. She moved in a way which removed him from her undercarriage, but her change in position was... something that could easily make Ozzy's body lose the memory of recent ejaculation. To hell with being reinvigorated; he was good as new as his eyes locked onto her backside. What a sight it was. Despite how much attention he paid to her... well, everything, he could never have imagined her possessing such a curve as what he now bore witness to. And to think, he was already well beyond smitten. "Right, yeah... blimey," he muttered. There was an immediate failure to resist the movement of his hands, which immediately took hold of the lass' hips. Of course, an applied grip was quickly followed by the movement of his own hips to slide his way into her womanhood once more. In doing this, Ozzy's gaze travelled all the way up her back, and back down repeatedly. Multiple trips were made before his first few thrusts, which themselves were not so slowly paced despite the astounding tightness he discovered in this position. So, this was rather incredible for the look as well as the feeling... "You're the bloody devil, you know that? Damn demon arch going here; I can't tell if it's trying to suck me in or crush me on the way. What am I meant to do with you?"

[Apollymi]

Nikki couldn't fashion Ozzy into anything. Strange though it might be, he was indeed perfect for her exactly as he was. It was something she was coming to terms with much faster than she would have expected. He could match her sex drive, handle her antics and be exactly the sort of support her manic brain needed. She really would marry him, keep him forever as a symbol of her winning and his absolute perfection. As such, she truly didn't find his request to be selfish at all. Beyond that, his claim that she was responsible for his end by method of simply reciprocating his interest was a source of extreme amusement. "I did say you're perfect for me, I'd be mad not to indulge whenever I can~" she mused of her own thought patterns. Of course, it went without saying that she knew a bit of what she was doing when she chose the position she took in the end.

That arch in her back was on of an extreme curve which she figured made her backside look larger and gave a clear view all the way down her body. With her hair shifted about she was even sure that tattoo between her shoulders was visible and parallel to the bedspread by nature of her posturing. After a few short words an a moment of recovering, Ozzy was sliding into her womanhood again, this time with a much firmer grip around his girth due to the position alone. And Nikki got to feel every push forward at normal speed without the earlier applied care. She moaned in response to this and couldn't help but to gently shift her hips backwards and meet those forward thrusts, helping along that feeling of depth and feeding into the divine feelings of this position. Ah, but Ozzy's words teasingly called the lass a devil and referred to this curve in her back as a demon arch. "I'm the devil?! Bloody hell you're one to talk~" she shot back as she surely began to fall to the sensation being provided. Ah, but what was he supposed to do with her? "If I'm the devil, it's only fair we make a deal, right?" she gave it a tiny bit of thought after posing that teasing question. This position was lovely and though he wasn't going slow she could do with a slight increase in friction to go along with that forced depth. "How about, you push harder for me... and I'll... say your name the way you like, Ozzy?~" she offered the fairest deal she could given the circumstances all while her own hips encouraged those extra forceful movements by pushing back against him.

[Bloodedge]

True enough, Nikki did claim he was perfect for her, while herself being the perfect specimen for him. Thus far, they melded together just as easily as their loins. Her claim of being mad to do anything but indulge given their obvious chemistry, was interestingly something that hit very close to home for Oliver. "Funny. I was thinking something like that too," he said firmly. Indulgence in each other would be the fate of these two, it seemed. Neither minded this, and in fact, both seemed elated to be at the receiving end of the other's thirst. The future was bright.

Nikki was the devil; there was no arguing Ozzy down from this train of thought. At the absolute minimum, she could be considered some sort of seductress, at least as far as he was concerned. Surely she understood what her current posture was doing from a visual perspective alone─ not to mention how this all felt, which was a different level of unfathomable. Nevertheless, it seemed Nikki was content to accept her identity as the literal devil under one condition: that they strike up a deal as devils did. "Sounds fair to me," he chimed with a grin, wondering what sort of 'deal' the young woman had in mind. What she had for him, was riveting. Push harder, she said, in exchange for the use of his name the way he'd grown to enjoy hearing it. Yes, that was quite fair, but it wasn't as if he could do anything else while Nikki was shifting her own hips that way. "That might work, yeah," he said. To the contrary however, Ozzy had to unveil his own devilish tendencies. As he addressed this potential exchange, he did indeed begin more forceful thrusts. How could he not? Ozzy had grown used to a slower approach by his partners' requests, typically by fault of their reprehensions when dealing with the size of his tool. With Nikki never giving any such warning, and now even requesting that he let out his energy as his body naturally desired, he could do nothing but answer in kind with thrusts that left his pelvis slapping against her backside─ though he was purposefully not offering full force just yet.

"It doesn't have to be my name though, does it? Just keep talking; I don't care what you say," he admitted. At the end of the day, that was Oliver Williams' ultimate peace of mind. Ending a livestream, kicking back and listening to Nikki talk as she showcased some new design or rambled on about her upcoming plans had become a staple in the young man's life. There was a new staple now, still involving the sound of Nikoleta's voice as some form of ASMR, but... this was a different voice entirely, and it soothed him in a very different way.

[Apollymi]

Apparently, Nikki and Ozzy were on the same page as far as their matching in certain aspects of their lives. That was reassuring, given that she'd already all but stated her desire to have this man by her side forever from this point forward. That was truly great, she could look forward to the future if this was what they were going to do.

Speaking of indulging, Nikki hadn't properly denied being the devil, and given this she found Ozzy taking her deal though with a minor modification or two. The harder pushes she'd asked for came though not quite with the utmost force... this was fine for her, she hadn't demanded his absolute hardest effort, one needed to work up to that sort of thing. Of course, beyond this her own hips were flexing backwards at each and ever stroke, her mouth fell open as she felt every reverberation of that slapping noise when Ozzy's hips collided with her bottom. "Aaah, fuck that's nice~" she stated as her breath hitched in her throat. Never before had someone reached this depth within her, and she couldn't deny liking it after it was done. Normally, things were done and over with so quickly that she found herself desiring more than was offered, but right at the moment she knew she'd never stop a session with Ozzy unsatisfied in the slightest. "Bloody hell, I'll say just about anything you like, Ozzy~" she mentioned of their little deal. She could and would say just about anything to the man, especially as her body began tightening around his manhood oh this was going to be great. Ah, maybe a little more... just a bit harder. "Don't take it easy on my account though... give all you've got... I'll be satisfied~" she mentioned of her desire. She couldn't have Ozzy holding back on her on anything, and it wasn't like she'd break... she'd abuse this new feeling as much as possible and let the lad with her enjoy himself at his fullest as well. What was the harm?

[Bloodedge]

Ozzy really didn't care what words Nikki had to offer him, though he was very interested to find out what they would be. Alas, her first words were a refreshing surprise after his efforts gained vigor, were nothing shy of perfection. She'd offered no negative commentary thus far, but he certainly wouldn't be turning his nose up to something directly positive. She even went on to claim that she'd say anything he liked. That was quite the dangerous sentence, wasn't it? If she meant those words, he could make her say anything at all.

Of course, there wasn't a single thing he could think of that he'd want her to say. As much as he enjoyed hearing her say anything in his direction, it didn't count at all if the words weren't hers. "I like whatever you want to say. Whatever comes to mind, just spit it out," he assured, confident that even a single word or two from Nikoleta could send him straight to the moon and back. His thrusts were steady all the while, laboring against that growing tightness. Whether sadly or not so sadly at all, that would have to be brought to an end in a way, and very soon. Nikki spoke words he'd never heard before. Don't take it easy? He'd never heard that as a single phrase before. In his earliest sexual endeavors, that came out more like: 'Don't! Take it easy!' This, however, was an astronomical alteration to what he accepted as the norm. Giving it all he had would be something he hadn't even thought to do in their multiple rounds thus far, but... if that was Nikki's desire, who was he to question it?

Leverage. If anything was important here, it was leverage. Ozzy wouldn't be able to keep simply holding onto the lass' hips, so he took to steadying himself with hands grasping the sides of her ribcage after his movements halted for the adjustment. "Well, if that's how it is," he said openly. Those snakelike movements of his spine would see a return as he stroked away once more. There was nothing to get in his way, and no chance of Nikki physically locking him in place again, even if she decided to try. There was nothing here but the force of his hips, every mighty lunge halted only by the combination of Nikki's backside and the limits of her canal, whichever stopped offering him leeway last. Earlier, there were noise complaints sent to the hotel staff, perhaps due to their collective loudness. Today, there were sure to be even more; some uppity sod may have even called the police for presumed acts of violence due to the continuous sounds of slapping skin and the headboard slamming against the wall from force of movement alone.

[Apollymi]

Nikki for her part in this, had nothing negative to offer Ozzy. She'd made the claim that she'd say what he liked, but in response to that she'd only been told to say whatever she wanted whenever it came to mind. Oh? That was a strangely free statement. Nikki had been in a number of relationships which made her feel small in various aspects of herself, the amount of freedom she was being offered by Ozzy was altogether new. She didn't need to change? She didn't need to stop? She didn't need to say something ridiculous? Anything she offered was enough?! That had to be some sort of mental trigger, she literally felt like she could offer this man anything right at the moment. Like she'd offer Oliver Williams, her entire being forever with statements like that to boost her sense of self so hard. "Fuck me, I'm not going to be able to let you go~" that was quite the sentence. Maybe uttered in a moment of passion but one she meant more than most others. She truly had already decided to keep this man, now she was going crazy trying to decide exactly how to present it as an idea that didn't seem crazy.

Until that level of crazy properly settled, it seemed she'd flickered a switch in Ozzy's mind. She could never know what it was like, being endowed as a man with such a tool she imagined it was some strange mix of being fetishized and feared. Whatever the case, being freed to act with the amount of force he wished to give, Nikki found confirmation to her earlier thoughts. He was indeed taking it easy on her, being very cautious of her to keep this interaction and every one they'd had so far comfortable for her. That being said, it was hardly necessary... given how much he was willing to do to get them started, Nikki found no problems accepting roughness with the size of the monster he used to tame her with. Ah, his hands shifted and were now holding her strangely. She was the one who couldn't escape now, and those snaking movements of his spine began with enough force for her to feel it all the way through her person. Each thrust seemed to reverberate though her, she hiccupped at the first one but a grin spread across her face thereafter. That constant knocking moved far beyond that gentle sensation and became something of a wave of bursting pleasure with each movement. She loved this, and felt the tightening of her nether into a rush of nectar and the release of her tension. Only it didn't stop, it was like a constant wave sending a flush of red color to her face and tingles all across her body.

If there was to be a noise complaint, it would be obvious why it was coming. Nikki had lost the volume control on her voice somewhere in that first plunge at this increased force. "FUCK ALL!~ OZZY!~ DON'T STOP, IT'S TOO GOOD!~" yes she could say anything, so she chose to sing his praises. Among the slapping of flesh against flesh, the knocking of the headboard and their labored breathing. She had nothing but pleasantries to pass along. Her nether was constantly pulsing on his manhood, she wasn't even sure she was actually reaching climax anymore separately. Her body had reached a state of divinity, she felt the outbreak of gooseflesh and the constant tingles in her head down to her toes. She was sure she'd gone cross eyed, sure her mouth was hanging open. Was she drooling? Maybe a little. But god was it worth it for how good it all felt. She was quite certain she was ruined.

[Bloodedge]

And so, the words were spoken─ words which Oliver Williams resonated with more thoroughly than any other in the English language. She wouldn't be able to let him go? Excellent. There was nothing he wanted more than to be permanently attached to Nikoleta by whatever methods she approved. He'd be elated even if Nikki's desire was to chain and enslave him. Actually, that sounded like a fun little idea, but he didn't have it in him to wonder about it much. His mind was just short of blanked by this ongoing bout of debauchery, though that was perfectly fine as well─ more than fine, even!

Ozzy was in danger of rubbing himself raw with all this friction. Alas, the friction itself was continually held at bay. Nikki's womanhood was his protector against its own firm grip, receiving assistance from the two deposits of his own fluids in fending off discomfort. It was fine that some neighbor may have been calling the police by now, right? Well, it would have to be, because Ozzy wasn't going to stop for anything after the lass started screaming the way she did. Don't stop, she said. What a dangerous sentence that was. In only hearing it, having confirmation of his partner's pleasure when her voice was at its best, Ozzy was brought closer to his proper end. Ever the gentleman though, he would resist that tingle. Well... perhaps gentleman wasn't the right descriptor. He wanted to be fair, yes, but his actions were more self-serving. He wanted Nikoleta to plummet into a void of endless bliss. In this moment, he wished for neither of them to know or acknowledge anything outside of this room, this bed, this physical connection that could be considered violent on every plane but the emotional. Ozzy moved as if he intended to literally tear down Nikki's walls, and even felt as if he had to, given how much compression was going on between them.

[Apollymi]

It was a truthful statement, Nikoleta wouldn't be able to let go of the man called Oliver Williams. She wondered if he would be surprised by the fact that she meant that statement and not in some crazy deranged way. She simply wanted him, and it was becoming more obvious to her with every passing moment that this wasn't something that was very likely to change at any point in the future. Ah, she'd have to explain herself sometime later though, right now her mind was an absolute mess.

It would be the case that she'd practically screamed at Ozzy that she didn't want him to stop, and lo and behold he'd kept up his motions. If there was a points system of some sort, he would have just earned some. Normally such words spelled the absolute end for whatever poor man heard them. Ah, but with the additional plunging, Nikki was far from being able to distinguish the start of one flourish from the end of one. Her body was in a constant state of pulsing clamping. All she could see in her eyes were speaks of light and black dots. She was quite sure her voice couldn't get much louder and she was already using a tone of voice that had never crossed her palate before. Ozzy did so many strange things to her, she was quite certain she was forever changed by each interaction they had. It was only fair if he was the only person to ever benefit from such hard work, right? Her hands were tangled up in this comforter right at the moment, she simply needed something else to hang on to while the whole of her body and mind fell apart. Her biggest most pronounced flourish yet was upon her, and along with it came that most dangerous compression her nether knew. "AAAAAAH!~FUCK ALL, OZZY! I'M CUMMING!~" so much to say so little time. She was done for, Nikoleta Corbyn might actually have to lock this man up somewhere to keep anyone else from having him.

[Bloodedge]

Ah, Ozzy was wrong─very wrong. The words he heard mere moments ago weren't dangerous at all when compared to what Nikki would soon be shouting. How long had he been waiting to hear such a beautiful song without even knowing? That announcement could have been considered the greatest sentence in human history, the way it struck his ear. To think, Ozzy was already endangered enough by the tightening of Nikki's core, and his own tool swelling against the feeling each time. What could anyone do in such a situation? There was hardly a thing for Ozzy to do physically, aside from take that proclamation as a lead to be followed. Steady was his pace, losing no force nor speed. From the sound and feel of things, he could likely consider his job done here; it would be very hard to top this after already completing multiple rounds in one sitting. It was time to make the final push, and end this on a high note─ and what a high note it was.

Pump after pump, his tool pushed through that narrow corridor, knocking against the door found at its end. Oliver's stamina had been attributed enough to sheer willpower that he had no issue, especially with such marvelous prompting, knocking one final time. At this point, it would be a surprise to Ozzy if there wasn't a sea of fluids gushing out around his girth, if only because of his own... deposit, so to speak. How many had there been now? He thought this to be the third, but surely they'd been at this for days on end by now, right? It felt as if it had been so long, yet also only a few short moments. However long it actually was, now was the moment to end it with one final thrust to the ends of Nikki's being. Heralded by her own climax was Ozzy's final surge. He still didn't know if she employed some form of birth control or not, but if she didn't... well, there would be something with a mixture of their faces in nine months or so─

[Apollymi]

Pump after pump at a steady pace, Nikki was pushed over the edge by Ozzy. He really was quite intuitive, she wondered how he'd not been cuffed and chained to someone else by now. Well, he was still in Uni, maybe the women he'd seen before weren't ready for that sort of thing? Whatever the case, Nikki herself was quite ready, even as she clenched around him and felt that desirable knocking against the end of her, towards his last thrust she felt it, the breach of that last barrier as well as something else rather new. A spilling sensation? Or a filling one!? In this case, she felt the expulsion of his seed at her very core and it was lovely. "OZZY!~ FUCK YES!!~" she chimed. Ozzy was sincerely surpassing all known limits. Her whole body would soon relax as she collapsed into the comforter trying to get her breathing under control.

Oh yes, in and out, that is how breaths were supposed to work. She didn't know if she should be chagrined or not that she hadn't needed to tell this lad twice that he was fine to release himself within her person. She was quite glad about the overall decision though. She was glad she was on birth control or else she definitely would have been worried about becoming pregnant from such an explosion. Oh well, it didn't matter and it was fun and felt nice which was about all a person could ask for. "Blimey." Yep that was all she had to say after all of that. She was so shocked, what else was she supposed to say? She would eventually have to mention that she wanted this lad as hers, just hers forever. She wasn't crazy but she also wasn't going to share him with anyone else. She wondered how close he was to graduation, would it be weird to move him into her flat? Maybe they should get different kind of place. If the noise of today was any indication they might not want neighbors.

[Bloodedge]

"Jesus fucking Christ, that..." Ozzy's train of thought was lost mid-sentence. Were there any fluids left in his body? He felt as if they were all gone from his person. To hell with breakfast; what he needed was hydration now! Whatever didn't escape through his shaft was leaving through his pores, or through the minor lacerations on the upper end of his back. Right, he had to move. It wouldn't be good to just leave himself lodged within Nikki all day, would it? Slowly but surely, he pulled back until his member flopped its way out of her womanhood. Of course there had to be spillage as he did so, one couldn't just expect to rest.

"God damnit. Just a tick," he said, heaving as he crawled out of the bed and made way for the bathroom. Nikki had so kindly done this the previous day, so he thought it was his turn to retrieve moist towels and the like. While he was at it, he went the extra mile to procure bottled water. Ozzy himself managed to sweat up a storm, so he imagined Nikki could use some amount of hydration as well. Back in the room, he took his place beside her in the bed, offering one of two bottles and... strangely enough, applying a warm cloth to her undercarriage without so much as a word beforehand. "Not too rough, I'm guessing? Can't say I've ever done any of that before."

[Apollymi]

Ozzy had the right of it. Swears were about all that could be applied to ones tongue after a bout like that. Nikki didn't even know where her head was, it was a million different places. They should get a nice place, not a flat. With a bathroom right off the bedroom. Oh, and a mini-fridge right there so they could have easy access to stuff. And a right good bed, one that could knock against the wall without injury, she sort of liked that sound. What side of the bed would Ozzy like? Would he prefer black-out curtains or the light kind that let the sun in? She should really ask... "Hmpf~" a little moan left that mouth of hers as Ozzy withdrew himself from her core. Was she dying? Having an existential crisis? Was she just musing on and on in her head about how to design a space they could share that would be functional for all their debauchery without any undue harm to neighbors. That was a mad.

Nikki was also sweating out a pool of her fluids. Ah, but he needed a second. "Yeah, take your time..." Nikki was really out of it. She finally managed to roll over after he was out of her, stretching just a tad. Oh gods, this was going to be a mess and a half. Ah but she fell back a bit, it was great. Warm towels and a water bottle. She was offered one. That was great. "Cheers, mate. I needed that..." she mentioned thanking him for the water. She opened it and took a sip fully prepared to accept the moist towel from him only to find by the time she was sipping that he was busy between her legs with it, cleaning her up?! Men did this? Like actually did this?! She thought this only occurred in romance novels... "Bloody hell, you're a saint! What am I going to do with you?~" she said as her head fell back. She couldn't even argue about this. As for his questions she could only grin. "Definitely not too rough... I've also never done any of all that before. Bloody mad that was," she said with a wistful smile crossing her face. "Seriously, I was over here having an existential crisis, I was wondering if you want sheer or blackout curtains?~"

[Bloodedge]

Back in bed and being shown gratitude for the offering of water, Ozzy wiped away at that which he'd been borderline brutalizing for the entire day thus far. He'd been the one to make such a mess of it, so it was only right that he do something to help clean it up. Nikki, however, seemed very surprised by this gesture. "What? I went and mucked it up, didn't I?" he defended, still wiping away ever so gently. Apparently, he wasn't too rough at all, despite Nikki being just as new to the spirited session they so recently shared. It was mad, but in such a magnificent way that Ozzy could only be more enchanted by it.

Ah, but Nikki admitted to having a bit of a crisis in recent moments. What could it have been? He could only hope it wasn't something too ridiculous. Had he overstepped any boundaries? Maybe he should have kept that roughness, but not gone quite so far into her undercarriage. One could imagine that being an unpleasant feeling, especially given the size of his package... but that wasn't even related to the crisis Nikki mentioned. Actually, it wasn't much of a 'crisis' at all, was it? She wondered something... whether he wanted sheer or blackout curtains? What sort of thing was that to think of? Whatever the case, Ozzy found it too hilarious to avoid any laughter prior to his response. "Hahaha! Do I want what?" He fell back, pulling his hand and the cloth away from Nikki's nether to avoid any impulse-related discomfort while he composed himself. Oh, that was just too much. Where did it even come from? "I fancy a bit of both, honestly. One for privacy, one for sleeping and glare-free gaming. My flat has them double-layered so I can use both─ is that weird?"

[Apollymi]

Her surprise at his actions got Nikki a very interesting defense from Ozzy. According to him he'd mucked it up, so cleaning it wasn't a big deal. Well, that was true enough but not really a sentiment that was generally shared. "Blimey this kind of aftercare is unheard though..." she said seeming not to understand how he didn't know this. But if he was always like this, there was only one real thing that was going to happen as a result. "Bloody hell, I'm gonna end up, proper spoiled. Sorted and spoiled, is that the type of woman I'm gonna be?" she mused unable to believe that any woman had let the lad go ever. At this point, Nikki had no idea that Ozzy was worried a bit about how she may or may not have liked any bit of their early morning activities. She was already planning a new place for them to live with all necessary amenities. Her concerns were far from anything they'd done together. She hadn't a single complaint and enjoyed every single moment they shared so far.

Ah, but what was this. Her actual question made the lad stop his cleaning of her and lean back. He laughed? Well, he'd wanted to know what she was actually like, and she was not holding back her thoughts at all. In post coital clarity she was deciding on the design of their shared bedroom and wondering what kind of thing he would prefer. She'd need to explain. "It's a great bloody question. I promise I'm not a nutter or anything... there was a long train of thought that got me there..." she playfully defended but she couldn't help but smile and be happy at the same time. She took a sip of water having propped herself up on her elbow. Ah, well at least he still actually answered her question. He fancied a bit of both. The blackout for sleep and to avoid glare on his screen and the sheer to enjoy the natural light doubled up. "Oh? Well that isn't strange at all. Layering curtains at the like is a pretty good way to add extra texture and depth to plain rooms. You know aside from the actual functional uses of it," she said taking a pause to bite that bottom lip of hers, as she thought over some extras. "Ah, but there's this great mirror lining for glass which can be applied from the inside. That stuff is magic! Lets in all the natural light and blocks the windows from the outside so no one can see in. It also blocks the glare it would be good for the glare as well if you don't want to be shut into a dark room all the time just to see the screen," she finished up. "Ah, but it's fun to play with both types of curtains, then there are more options for other matching and complementary fabrics. Such a thing is a good base for a cozy space," she managed to finish that line of thought. Hm, what if he wanted a spare room. He was an architecture student as well as a streamer. Perhaps a study with a comfy gaming set up would be nice. She always had a studio type room in her own flat, that was also manageable.

[Bloodedge]

Sorted and spoiled; that was about the state he planned on leaving her in. It was a good type of woman for her to be, he thought, so he would ensure that to the best of his ability. "Good plan, innit? Sorted, spoiled... bit of drool hanging from your lip─" he said, pointing near the corner of his own bottom lip to bring attention to the saliva present on Nikki's. "Should I get that too?" he continued in partial jest.

As for her random talk of curtains, apparently there was a long train of thought which led her to such a thing. She bit her lip and started rambling on, as she seemed to always do when musing for her work/passion. In the meantime, Ozzy settled in, crossing his legs and placing his chin in one hand as he watched her mouth move and move. Though he wasn't much of an interior design person himself, he was intently listening and infinitely amused by her mannerisms. She had some interesting takes as well, managing to catch his interest with the idea of some mirror lining for windows. "That sounds like it'd take a load of getting used to, but I sort of like the idea. I do keep my streaming office dark and without windows at all if possible, though. Less impact on the lighting setup, ya' know?" What an interesting form of pillow talk these two were having, but it was leading Ozzy down a very specific thought path. What brought this all about, he wondered. A cheeky grin passed his lips as he wanted to make an assumption about Nikki's thought pattern. "Planning the honeymoon suite, or our future home? What's next, type of first pet? I'm a cat person, in case you were wondering~"

[Apollymi]

A good plan?! Did he really think it was a good plan to lead her into a life where she was spoiled and sorted? Oh...with a bit of drool hanging from the corner of her mouth judging by his gesture. "Oh, bloody hell... well, I am not gonna argue about the plan. I don't hate it," she murmured she ran her pinky across the corner of her mouth. She wouldn't be so easily falling into his notions. Besides, if she let him get it, she'd no doubt end up with their tongues tied together for the foreseeable future. "Still, I'm not falling for it, mate~" she mentioned, thinking about it naturally she could fall into his antics at any time, but they'd eventually have to do people stuff too right?

Oh, and soon after she began rambling on, about windows curtains the need for lighting. She'd gone on a whole interior design tangent which was strange considering they were definitely in the pillow talk range of conversation. Instead of a bored or disinterested look when she peeked over at the lad, she saw him sitting cross legged seemingly very interested in what she had to say. How strange. Well, he did watch all of her videos, she still didn't expect him to be that interested in the random workings of her mind. And what was this? Unlike the video format of her day to day life, he had immediate feedback for her. Contributions made to her overall designing aspects. For his streaming set up, no windows so they didn't interfere with his unnatural lighting set up? That made sense, she framed her own videos around whatever lighting she preferred at the time. As such there was a lot less for her to do in those sorts of situations. He thought the glass mirroring would take a load of getting used to, it really didn't by her own approximation. "Hm, not really. I use it in my studio because I like natural light while I'm sewing and drawing. It's also bloody brilliant if you prefer the 'modern' large window look in your space but you don't want the closed in, cozy feeling of curtains that cut you off from the rest of the world," she explained still rambling just a bit. "But I could see how it might take time... would be pretty good for a personal gym type of space as well I'd gather," she said as her eyes shifted from his face down to his body. Hm, five bedrooms were starting to seem like a bit of necessity, maybe six if they wanted to entertain either of their siblings at random. Oh, there was his sister. She was younger than him... did she need a room? Was she proper underage? She wouldn't want to make that girl feel unwelcome either. Nor would she want to traumatize her, maybe they should look into sound proofing for their bedroom... that had to be workable right?

Ah, but that was all an extra aside. He was talking again. And it seemed as if he'd caught up a bit. He asked if she was designing their honeymoon suite or their home shared. He asked what was next, if they were picking pets and shared that he liked cats. That was good, Nikki also enjoyed cats. "I found myself on a downward spiral after realizing I didn't normally make that much noise. So, I got to the point where I decided that we'd need to share a space, but that my flat was out of the questions because my neighbors are nice folks. But we also need a space that suits both our needs. It was a bunch of stuff, like figuring out how far you are along in Uni and deciding how many bedrooms would be needed minimum. Figuring out how to make the best of all our spaces would be key..." she said softly. "Also I like cats too. I am such a cat person... dog people are a mad lot..."

[Bloodedge]

No arguments would come regarding Ozzy's ultimate plan, much to his satisfaction. Good; he always wanted to see the look on Nikki's face when she was properly the center of attention, not just talking to a camera. It was so different, so much better, watching her emote in a face-to-face interaction. "It's settled then. Lovely," he responded. Moving on, there was more information to be shared regarding the strange windows Nikki spoke of. She claimed they didn't require much getting used to, but he had a specific reason for saying such a thing. "Still gotta insist it would. As much as I like to walk around my flat in my skivvies, I'd have to get used to the fact that nobody can actually see me through the window. I've damn near shown my whole arse and cock to the neighbors just because I forgot to close the blinders in my living room once."

Nearly traumatic experiences aside, Oliver thought he could at least give those strange windows a try. He did enjoy natural light, and the outside world in general for that matter. Using such a thing as those, he imagined the double curtains trick he'd been using would be unnecessary for anything but aesthetics. Either way, he was sure it would be a lovely alteration after a brief adjustment period... though he could also see himself having a bit of fun on purpose by openly flaunting his nudity at the front window. Apart from all that, Nikki admitted to considering a place for the pair of them to live. Ozzy hadn't even jumped that far ahead, even though the prospect alone was exciting. More thrilling yet was the idea that Nikki seemed completely onboard with them just... living together, looking forward. "Guessing the secondary interview was good, based on that. I'm obviously all for moving in, if you're alright throwing caution out the two-way window. I've been saving up a bit to get out of my flat anyway. Oh, and I'm just finishing up year three at university. Two left, then practical experience."

[Apollymi]

The lad known as Ozzy looked rather satisfied about Nikki being alright with being both sorted and spoiled. She couldn't do anything but smile at him. How he watched her ramble on about relatively small things and seemed so enthused for the conversation. She could spend literal days talking to him about absolutely nothing and it would be amazing. What was his most recent addition to their conversation, an anecdote about how he'd apparently almost flashed his whole neighborhood once forgetting to close his blinders. Nikki's face shifted slightly breaking out into a laugh which came from a good natured place. "Blimey, what an afternoon that had to be," she said with a cheeky grin on her face. "For what it's worth, that's a great view~" she stated pretty openly. Oh? Was that flirty? Did it actually matter if it was? Well, not to Nikki, not anymore. She was being herself and herself was a less tame version of her public persona.

Getting over his trauma would be fine. Nikki had no problem if the man wanted to run around in their shared space, shirtless or pant-less or anything really. As long as he was there she couldn't care less. Oh, that was probably a bit crazy as a thought... whatever, she'd abandoned all but the most manic of thoughts in the previous day. She was now settled in her crazy happiness and along for the ride of it so to speak. She looked to Ozzy as he mentioned how well his second interview must have gone. He claimed to be fine with moving in, and claimed to have already been saving up for a new place. He finished this statement with the information that he was finishing up his third year of Uni. Two to go and his practical... well that wasn't too bad. "The second interview was stellar, but it wasn't even necessary. I'd be bloody mental to let you walk away from me, like ever. Caution only gets you so far, gambling let's you know you're living... or something like that. Crazy as that sounds and I bloody well know it does... You're mine now, us not living together was never really an option," she mentioned. Well that sounded a great deal more crazy than she meant it to, a third year University student he had to be what, nineteen? "Bloody hell, I sound like a madwoman. Kidnapping a bloody teen in his prime shag and tag years to keep as my boyfriend. I should feel bad about that..." she said mumbling a bit as she thought it over. "Well, I don't... no, I'm definitely winning this one," she said giving herself a firm nod. He'd been saving for a place. "Oh, and I've been saving for a new place already too. I didn't think I'd end up sharing it with anyone but my sister... but I think I like this better as an idea. She's always traveling anyways... so I'd end up alone more often than not if I shared a new place with her," she mentioned. She wasn't planning to let the lad go all in on his own, especially not if they were planning their lives out as a couple.

[Bloodedge]

"In my defense, it was one of my tired days after a charity stream. I was bleedin' knackered from sunup to sundown," Ozzy admitted. What he didn't admit to, was the fact that he'd been in such a situation far more than once. He probably would be again, as well─ especially if Nikki was around to keep him physically active on top of everything else. "Much as I appreciate the compliment, I think the folks living next to me would argue. They're a lesbian couple," he added. The only reason he'd nearly freaked out over his own actions back then, was because he wanted to avoid being disrespectful by making that pair think he was advertising something for them. He'd seen his fair share of toxic individuals approach the house next door for similar purposes, and those two seemed quite bothered by it.

Nikki had more words for him, and they were exactly what he didn't realize he needed to hear. He wasn't going anywhere of his own volition at this point, and Nikki apparently wasn't letting him go either. Things couldn't have possibly gone better for Oliver in the past 24 hours. Now, the future looked even brighter than ever before. As for his shag and tag years, they were relatively nonexistent anyway. Never had he gone out looking for some prime piece of arse to pound, or any such nonsense like that. The only time he'd ever gone out of his way for something was... well, yesterday. "Oy, I'm no teen; I'm twenty. Respect the old age!" he stated, mockingly aghast by being called a teen. "I've still got all that in me though, so I can just use you for all the shagging and tagging I ain't doing somewhere else. Yeah, that sounds fair," he said, this time without an ounce of jest in his words. "I'm in the same boat as well. Bree still needs me to sign off as her guardian and all, but she's got her own spot with an alright lot to look after her. Less blokes for me to fight than I'd have otherwise."

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy he'd been worn out after a stream when he'd almost flashed his neighbors. How very interesting... she was beginning to see a pattern with this one. This was the second time he'd mentioned doing something like that and its connection to one of his streaming charity events. "You must go really hard for those events... I might have to do a bit more research, to find out what all is happening in these streams of yours," she mused. Yeah, that sounded fun, maybe she'd sign into Twitch again and stalk a stream or two, find out how a man so fit ended up so tired, and see his interaction with his fanbase... that would always be interesting. What was more this lad thought that his lesbian neighbors wouldn't have appreciated the view so much, Nikki laughed a bit harder but still shook her head. "Well, they might not have been interested in the goods but... one has to admit you are gorgeous. Couple of lasses would acknowledge that. Besides you're a total sweetheart, I'm sure everyone acknowledges that~" Nikki was pretty certain of her assumptions. This man had too nice for his own good, practically written on his forehead. She was certain even a lesbian couple wouldn't have held an accidental flashing against him.

Nikki claimed she was holding on to this lad. She had a mini-existential crisis, wondering if she was keeping this lad from the 'best' years of his life or anything like that. Of course, she didn't seem to mull it over too long and she wouldn't be allowed to regardless. Apparently he was 20 and she should respect his old age. "Twenty? Really?! Bloody hell, that makes it all make less sense not more," she complained to the universe at large. Young men with their lives together, clear cut goals and good values before 25 was almost unheard of. She supposed if she'd grabbed him up any earlier it would have been a crime against humanity. Of course, he claimed that he could do all his shagging and tagging with her, and the sudden seriousness of his tone made Nikki's eyes widen. "Blimey, sounds fair to me. All mine though... don't misunderstand," she met him with the same amount of seriousness. Ah, he was also alone. Apparently his sister, was living off on her own with some other people. His words about her in this context gave Nikki a strange amount of nostalgia and a different perspective from the one she'd grown up with. "Oh no? Is that what that's like from that side? Do big bros fight people? I was the kid in that situation, getting my older sister to sign off on my stuff..." she mused a bit understanding the situation a bit better.

[Bloodedge]

Nikki thought to inspect his stream after adopting the belief that he was forthright in his charity shows. Though she would always have the golden ticket in as far as he was concerned, she'd probably hear more about herself than she learned about him. Ozzy's moderators never stopped giving him updates every time she uploaded a video, sent a tweet, or otherwise... even though he had every notification of such things straight to his phone already. "Not much choice, really. The main charity I'm backing is my own. Actually... just yesterday, someone from Japan donated enough money to buy a dozen houses. I should be checking in at some point to cover goals and such," he mused. With all his attention on Nikki, he'd almost forgotten to even send a message to his followers. Well, they all understood by now that his focus was going to be elsewhere for the week. Still, he'd have to find the time eventually.

The couple living next to Ozzy were indeed quite understanding of various situations, but... Ozzy really was a bit too nice. They went through enough already; he didn't want to give them additional reasons to second guess anything, so he avoided it like the plague. "I'm sure they would. I'd still rather not cause any stress to a good bunch," he said.

The lad being twenty years of age made less sense, as it stood. He didn't really see how. He had a point of focus, and he didn't plan on changing it. No... it would be better to say he couldn't change it; there were two many boxes checked off by a singular entity. Whatever the case, Nikki accepted the facts soon enough, even offering her own specification. The way she phrased that statement was worth a laugh from the lad as he twisted the cap of his water bottle. "Yes ma'am," he retorted, seeming more than pleased to do so. With that, came a comparison between the two sitting in this room. They lived on opposite sides of the same equation of siblings. He did always wonder what the other side was like. . . "I'm not sure if all blokes with little sisters fight people, but whatever it takes to keep her from getting into trouble doing it herself. What's it like having an older sibling be responsible for that stuff though? I always figure it gets annoying for Bree, having to go through a slightly older person for a permission slip to do the job she's damn perfect for."

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy he didn't have much choice but to throw his all into his charity events as it was his own charity on the line. How interesting. Many streamers and Youtubers eventually found themselves backing various charity causes. But to start one of their own was almost unheard of, she was exceedingly curious about the nature of this charity by his words. "Blimey, that sounds like it's a lot. What does your charity do?" she asked. This question came from a genuine point of interest in the lass. She'd already agreed to keeping this man, named him her boyfriend and everything. The least she could do was find out the other things in his life that moved him a bit.

His words about his neighbors made a smile appear on Nikki's face. She'd pegged him correctly, too nice for his own good. "That's about what I thought you'd end up saying. You really are a sweetheart~" she mused. This man was a big softy, which was in great contrast to the amount of physicality he presented her when she asked for it. And his rather imposing general physique. She wondered if he ever encountered problems because of this... she couldn't imagine it was easy for a lad like him... even with the added bonus of being gorgeous.

Apparently the lad had no problem with her offered bit of seriousness. This was good, Nikki didn't want to seem crazy, but she also wasn't setting herself up for any form of failure. That being said, Ozzy didn't seem like the two-timing type. Though he did look it. That had to be another problem for the lad at some point in the past, it was the only real explanation for why the lad was free and not permanently glued to the side of some lass. Well, that wasn't true. He was no longer free... he would now be glued to her side forever... never to be let too far out of her sight again. Moreover as their conversation progressed they found out they were more on the opposite sides of a similar life situation. He claimed not to know if blokes always fought for their sisters, but he did to keep his out of trouble. Her sister would have said something similar as for being the one who was being signed for and the like she gave a casual shrug. "It's not bad having someone in your corner. Especially when they're not old enough to think they know everything, looking out for you here and there... As the younger one I had a few bouts with rebellion back in the day and being annoyed by it. But Ronnie didn't take it too personally, and took it as me finding my own voice. Probably for the best, I was a bit of a quiet crybaby when I was younger..." Nikki admitted. It took her a while to be able to properly voice what she wanted. And her older sister was there to help her along the way, give advice and sign her papers.

[Bloodedge]

Well, that was refreshingly unexpected. Ozzy could count on one hand the number of times he'd been asked directly about his charity, even when broaching the topic himself. That wasn't quite true. He'd been asked quite a few times, albeit never from anything resembling a point of legitimate interest. Any who asked in a non-distrusting manner, typically intended to offer a donation regardless of the cause, never being concerned with what it was. Likely, those people simply wanted to get on his good side for their own purposes. Fame and attractiveness were a curse of a combination for such reasons. "To keep it simple, I've got a bad history with the quality of orphanages around here. The charity's purpose is to improve every orphanage across England, and hell, maybe even the world eventually. We got a good start going over in Leeds. Cardiff's next."

Perhaps being the younger sibling relying on the signature of one's elder wasn't nearly as annoying as he thought. Nikki reported that things were not so bad at all, given one's closeness in age to the guardian in question, similar enough levels of life experience, and the like. "It's always the rebellious types who really get their shit together, innit?" he asked in regards to Nikki's former self. He remembered a few streaks of rebellion here and there with his own sister, though none were too outlandish in his own opinion. Well... one particular streak was the reason they were so close, after all.

Thirst finally catching up to him, Ozzy began downing the water from his own bottle. He'd have to really stock up, lest he run the risk of dehydrating himself dealing with Nikoleta on a daily basis. Oh... what a thought that was. They could reach a point of being in close proximity to one another daily, especially with all this talk of moving in together. To think, they'd only just spoken their first words to each other about 24 hours prior to this moment. With that being the case, it was probably best they got a good head start on the more casual part of life. Ozzy seemed to become a bit more hyper, holding his own knees while leaning toward the lass. "So, we hydrated? Legs feeling alright? What do you say we settle in for the day with a game or sommat?"

[Apollymi]

Oliver wasn't the only one experiencing this level of surprise at the nature of their conversation. Nikki too wasn't rightly used to anyone besides her sister taking real interest in what she did. As such, she was more than willing to provide a more carefree amount of interest in finding out what was going on in Oliver's life. What she found by his answer was surprising. His charity was doing work to improve orphanages across England with an eventual hope of influencing those across the world. Her eyes widened. He said he took personal issue with him... so he'd grown up in one? Terrible, but how strangely close their lives could have been. And how oddly parallel. "Blimey, that's a great cause... I almost ended up in one of those. Probably would've if my sister wasn't so much older than me," Nikki said knowing the logic of it. She hadn't completely understood, but after her parents died, her Aunt and Uncle couldn't take her in because they had so many kids of their own already they were stretched thin. Nikki was due to be shipped off to an orphanage when her sister came back and took guardianship of her, even getting a flat in the local area so she didn't have to switch schools or anything. That almost experience had shaped her strangely and she loved kids and the idea of helping them out. "Hm, I have a project in the works... when it's officially announced I have a pretty good idea on how to help out!~" she offered rather freely. This wasn't a matter of it simply being Ozzy. She would have helped with such a thing even if someone else was in charge of it. The fact that Ozzy had it so near and dear to his heart, meant that she wanted to help him see his goals completed.

Moving on from that topic but only slightly, Ozzy had something to say about the rebellious being the type to become responsible. She couldn't agree more, none had been more rebellious than her sister, but she'd gotten her whole life together and balanced her career around helping raise her little sister. Such a transformation was part of the reason that Nikki looked up to her. "Yeah, they really do. I don't count myself as much more than a bit of a baby in that aspect. But I watched my sister get her whole life together to take care of me when I was younger. She even managed to stay fun over all of that, we ended up super close because of it. It inspired me to do my own thing," she said softly. It was so cute how easily their lives could align. How much they could understand about each other by filling in the sides of the experience that the others were missing.

It seemed she was at the point where she was finishing her own water as well. That was for the best. Hydration was the key to good skin and a well-balanced life. And something about her life was already being rebalanced around the idea of Ozzy Williams. Oh, what fun they were going to be having. Speaking of fun... games were in order now that they were all settled for the day and sorted for the morning. She watched him lean in, seemingly newly excited... there was a certain, lightness about him which she found extra attractive in the moment. "Yeah, we're all sorted, and a game sounds brilliant. Which one? What did you bring?~" she asked seemingly excited. She also sat up, rolling her shoulders and getting settled ready to see whatever was up next.

[Bloodedge]

"I did end up in one," Ozzy admitted. It hadn't been the best experience, though he'd made the best of it. "Aged out, actually. Bree could've been picked up the whole time, but she wouldn't go because they wouldn't take both of us. Tried telling her otherwise, but... rebellious and all, y'know? Of course I'm thankful for it at this point. Couldn't have made it by myself at all, me." Where would he be now, had his sister not kept them together by force? He dreaded to think, really. Nevertheless, that wasn't a matter of importance presently. There was instead the interesting note that Nikki had some sort of project going, which happened to be lined-up nicely with his plans. "Waiting on the announcement, huh? Alright. I won't ask, but I'll look forward to it," he said, not wanting to pry on something she was planning to keep under wraps.

Gaming idea accepted, Nikki brought into question the sort of game he had in mind, as well as what he'd brought along. There were many options on the table, weren't there? A cooperative experience was always on the proverbial table, though there were also a couple of things he wanted to introduce the lass to. "Well I brought my external over... I think. I hope I didn't forget it, but it's not like I can't just run down the hall if I did. Being honest, I'm lost on a suggestion. Fancy trying something new? I'd like to put you on to AoE, but that's a long commitment not worth taking on first. Brave Souls? We could get you going on an account, and there's a damn good banner up right now. Same for Kingdom Hearts and Shinobi Frenzy, actually─"

[Apollymi]

Oh and more information from Ozzy. Both him and his sister had ended up in an orphanage. According to the lad, he'd eventually aged out, and had managed to stay with his younger sister by the lass' own doing. She was apparently rebellious enough to refuse to be adopted on her own. What a strong individual, Nikki couldn't help but smile at the knowledge. She'd appreciated Bree from afar, liked her look and thought her to be an amazing younger lass, to know she had that sort of backbone to go along with it, was awe-inspiring. "Really?! I like her more now... it's great you two stuck together. From the outside you two are both doing great too~" she said. Nikki's praise came from an exceedingly genuine place. She was truly happy that both Ozzy and his sister managed to get their lives together so much despite the initial hardship. And it spoke to both of their characters that they'd yet to show even a blemish against themselves. As for her special project, she was sure Ozzy was going to be among the first to know about it. Technically this week was a very big one for Nikki, Ozzy becoming part of her life was just an addition to that list.

"Yeah, it's not a long wait, actually it will be later tonight. My scheduled update video on it will go live at around the same time the announcements are made. This appearance for me has multiple things attached to it," she mused, admittedly even her sister didn't know about the bigger announcement. Though she had no problem sharing such information with Ozzy, she figured he'd appreciate the surprise... and maybe find the coincidence in their likeness. Later in the afternoon, Nikki would have an update video go live, explaining her work-program for young designers and the launch of an affordable local Blue Lotus kids line for fashionable affordable kids clothes, connected directly to her own charity work of providing clothes for kids in need. Such a thing would have so any clothing purchased would also be provided to some choice charities for distribution to kids in need, making sure no one had to look the part of the 'underprivileged'. And any young designers who submitted works for this could receive scholarships to design schools of their choices. It was part of her plan to make Blue Lotus into a household name and branch off eventually into all aspects of life, but she could definitely see Ozzy's charity as one hers could contribute to, especially given his target.

Beyond particulars of work and charity there was gaming afoot. And to be honest, she hadn't played anything new in quite a while, though she had at least a little bit of an understanding of the Aeons universes featured in such titles. According to Ozzy, AoE was a bit more of a commitment than the time would currently allow, so she should try one of the others. "Oh? It's mad the Aeons have launched so many games based on their works. Brave Souls, is the Bleach one right? I can't say no to Bleach... I couldn't give that up, even when I was dying while putting together my grad show~" she mused about Bleach as a series. She enjoyed it from several perspectives and enjoyed the design of every character in that one, even though they were mostly seen in uniform they were all so varied and had their own looks. Such a thing was quite a bit of inspiration to her in her early developing of her own clothing lines.

[Bloodedge]

"Yeah, we've both done alright. Not much compared to you and yours though, based on seeing you and hearing what you say about your sis," Ozzy countered. The parallels between them would undoubtedly be noticed eventually, and indeed it would likely be due to the project Nikki had in store. Even without knowing what it could possibly be, Ozzy seemed rather excited about it. There appeared to be no filters between these two; at least Ozzy could attest to their being none on his side.

Nikki's video update would be releasing this very night, apparently. If she hadn't mentioned then, Ozzy would have found out eventually. Whatever platform she was on, he was there with notifications enabled and sent directly to his phone. "I'll be the first to see, like and comment then. Notification Squad's number one player, me. Well... unless we're busy by the time it goes live," he said, understanding by now the many reasons he could be far too preoccupied to watch one of her videos the moment of release. After all, why would he? What would be the point of going out of his way to view her videos, when he could look her directly in the face? Time would tell if his record would remain untarnished or not, though it didn't matter to him at all if it was, considering what the reason would have to be.

Nikki was right; those Aeons were ridiculous when it came to promoting their franchises in various media forms. Ozzy even wondered if they were somehow responsible for Industrial Illusions' production of Age of Eternity. It wouldn't surprise him if that were the case. Moving on though, there was something to confirm. "Bleach, yeah. They started their 12th Division banner earlier this week. It's really hyped, so there's a lot of free Soul Orbs for new players right now. It's a good time to start up an account!"

[Apollymi]

A laugh escaped Nikki in these moments, if Ozzy thought she and her sister were both doing better than him and his he only needed to look a bit below the surface. Of course, it was easy to appreciate someone from the outside but that was part of what made it funny. "I'm a mess and my sister has a decade head start on us. You're both more than alright, I promise~" she mentioned though she hadn't directly rejected the compliment. Perhaps she'd feel better when she got the rest of her life together, actually, the addition of Ozzy to her life, kind of completed one of her overarching goals in life.

Beyond this according to Ozzy he'd be the first to know of her updates, he was the first person to comment on all of her videos. What a strange declaration to make. "Blimey that's one hell of a statement..." she cut her eyes towards him. She wondered how he would feel if his streak was lost in a moment shared between them? Well, she supposed time would tell, she didn't have any plans directly to distract him, but her own nature was always a bit in flux there was no telling what she'd feel like by the scheduled release of her own video.

What she was feeling right just now, was gamer excitement. Apparently Brave Souls was running a banner and it was one which would make her happy to be the time she was starting. "Shut up! 12th Division is bloody brilliant. I've gotta pull on that... Ayatsuki-taichou is my spirit animal!~" she chimed seemingly excited about getting started. How very interesting that this happened to be a series she was caught up on, and familiar enough with to want to be involved directly with some pulls.

[Bloodedge]

Nikki was a mess? Nonsense! Though none could be called perfect in any literal sense, one could hardly get closer as far as Ozzy was concerned. "Come off it. You're no more a mess than any randomer, even if you think you are. Give yourself some credit," he insisted. He didn't say such things simply because he knew this as a fact in Nikki's case, but he believed anyone who wasn't in an incredible struggle of their own creation showed a certain strength of stability.

He did indeed offer one hell of a statement, but it wasn't something he ever hid. Aside from having absolute adoration for the lass, he was also simply a massive fan at the end of the day. Even though he didn't naturally have an interest in her work, he was infinitely interested in the way she approached said work. As such, he intended to keep himself in the know. "Biggest fan, remember? Couldn't call myself that if I wasn't checking for everything you upload."

What a lucky time it was for Nikki to be a player of the game Brave Souls! She seemed authentically excited about the 12th Division and its characters, even going so far as to name one of them her spirit animal. Now that Ozzy thought about it, he supposed he could understand why such a statement was made. From animal ears to being obsessed with some sort of craft, the two were very similar. "Ayatsuki huh? She's a fun character, and a really solid unit in the game as well! She's pretty busted once you get her Bankai; probably best CC in the game. Well... the funnest, at least. I haven't unlocked it myself yet, but I'm still trying to pull Baiken. C'mon, let's get you set up!" With that, Oliver was hopping off the bed, a hand extended for the young woman. Into the sitting room he'd go, where he'd proceed to pull up the coffee table and get his laptop in order. He hadn't even turned the thing off since taking it from his own suite, so it was a simple matter of plugging it in and opening it... before the screen revealed a wallpaper of Nikoleta herself clad in one of her limited edition jumpers. Without even bothering to draw attention to that, Ozzy double-clicked the icon for the chosen game, letting it load for Nikki's registration.

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy she was no more a mess than any other person and as such should give herself some credit. Nikki held up her hands in defense. If he was apt to believe in her, it was now her moral obligation to believe in herself. "Bloody hell, you're going to inflate my head... I'll fall over you know?" she jested, but she couldn't deny his belief in her at all. She was so used to being discounted in such situations, it was surprising to have someone randomly sticking up for her, even if the words were just hers against herself.

Beyond this point, Ozzy claimed that he was simply just her fan, so his statement about being up on her work was one which was probably normal for him. "You do know that's extreme right? Well, I can't say I mind... though it is pretty different to have someone so interested in what I'm doing," she admitted. She was quite certain before this point the only people following her at regular intervals were investors, design students, young models and a metric ton of random men who just thought she was pretty. Ozzy was an entity unto himself in her own mind, and he was all hers... that was going to take some getting used to.

While she mulled over that thought, they came back to their discussion on Bleach and her legitimate interest in the 12th Division's Captain. According to Ozzy she was a pretty good unit in game and though he hadn't raised her yet, she was supposed to only get better. "Brilliant. Baiken's brilliant too, a bit rough and tumble but good core values. I wouldn't mind her either. Let's go!~" she chimed, taking that extended hand and once again feeling that comforting warmth she enjoyed while getting out of bed and heading for that sitting room. Upon arrival she was seated and watching the lad load up his laptop, and though most might have shied away from allowing someone to see their desktop, she was put in plain sight of an image of herself, in one of her limited edition jumpers to boot. "Blimey, I'm pretty sure I don't have that picture of me. You take that stalking business very seriously~" she joked seeming to be fine with the picture while waiting for the game to load. She'd excitedly start her registration typing in her usual ID and setting herself up properly to play this game.

[Bloodedge]

"Fall away," he chimed. "We'll get you picked up and sorted if you do, but that won't stop me gassing you up either way. You don't half bloody deserve it," the young man said further. Everyone deserved credit and appreciation, and none more so than those who dedicated themselves the way Nikoleta Corbyn clearly did. Obviously, she wasn't getting enough... but he'd be sure to fix that.

His methods may have been a little extreme, but so was his obsession. It couldn't be called anything less than obsession, really. Did Ozzy have a problem with that? Not one bit. Since it seemed like Nikki also took no issue, there was nothing that could convince him to change. He'd continue to obsess, to sing her praises to the high heavens, and to absolutely bask in every moment that involved Nikoleta. Speaking of moments involving her, attention was brought to the image used as his desktop background. Was it truly such an obscure shot? He didn't think so; it was one of many images in his folder of... several gigabytes worth of images featuring her. Shrugging over the fact that he even had the picture, Ozzy chose to address his apparent interest in what Nikki did. "Like I said, I'm not really bothered about what you do. I'm interested because it's you doing it. Well, I guess that makes me interested in the stuff by proxy. You get what I mean~"

While Nikki started the registration process for the game, Ozzy decided to reposition himself. He wasn't quite satisfied sitting beside the lass, so he lifted his leg and arm, aiming to slip them ─ and eventually his full body ─ behind her. The couches were large enough that she could easily fit into the space between his legs without settling on the very edge of the couch cushion, and even if that were the case, Ozzy intended to hook his arms around her midriff and watch her game over her shoulder. "Are you used to gachas? If you're super super lucky, you could get all five characters on the banner. Or, you know... if you dish out a few quid, you'll get them too. So, what's a dub other than Akiko and Baiken? You could always lose a roll and get something off banner."

[Apollymi]

Ozzy went on to make several more outrageous claims. She should probably just get used to these, huh? Her head was already spinning with the idea of keeping him having been made a clear thing she wanted. Him claiming he planned to do nothing but increase her already growing ego by singing her praises and keep her sorted was like a choir hymn in her ears. "Blimey, I'm really gonna believe I'm still dreaming if you keep doing that... Though, honestly... I don't think I could make up someone as good as you~" she mused finding his entire approach outright extreme but being unable to find the words that would translate to discouraging his behavior. She deserved this, right? After a series of bad boyfriends, terrible dates and incidents which made her question her own sanity, she deserved one guy in the whole world who was all about her. So why shouldn't she? Why shouldn't she take him and indulge at every opportunity presented?

While she thought over that point, he claimed he wasn't bothered so much about what she was doing, but instead was just interested in her. So what she did, only mattered by proxy. "Bloody hell, that's hardly a difference," she chided though she was far from upset. Actually she was taking to a great deal of comfort as the man settled in behind her. He wrapped an arm around her midriff even, leaving her a special warmth for her back to fall against even while she did something simple like pull on the gacha of this game. She wiggled herself back against him as he looked on over her shoulder and gave a reply while connecting this account to her google account so she could spend money without having to enter any new information. "Well, I am familiar enough. My luck is absolutely terrible though. It's a huge joke!" she chimed. Knowing the joke between herself and her sister was that her luck in gacha games was about as bad as her luck in choosing men. Ah, but maybe it was time for a change? "A win, besides those two," she gave it a bit of consideration and with that came the ever so gentle bite of that bottom lip. "My next favorite Captain after Ayatsuki is Juri. I'd love her," she concluded, but there were a few other options when she thought about it. "Can't call Raizen anything but a win. I would also take Inuzuri or Tamao. Benihime is also fine, I guess. Basically anyone except Terumi or that former Captain of the 4th. Oh, Saori would be a massive dub." she finished up. She had a pretty good idea of what she'd like, and having finished her registration she was mostly ready to get started.

[Bloodedge]

Still on the idea of him being made up somewhere in her imagination, Nikki presented the claim that she couldn't have been so successful in such an endeavor. How refreshing. That was yet another of those moments which assured him that this could, and would, work. Gone would be the senseless hookups and occasional dates just for a bit of relief and social interaction. This was truly the start of something big, which would only continue to grow over time. At least, that was how Ozzy's mind processed the situation. He would eventually know how accurate his internal musings were. . .

Soon enough, Ozzy was comfortably settled, and Nikki was finishing her account setup. His excitement was growing by the moment. How much would she enjoy the experience of this game? Time would tell. She did seem excited to begin, but there was always a chance of disliking gameplay or other aspects. Regardless, Ozzy now had her ideal list of character summons. If she failed to obtain the character she sought, there were a few other options... though there was a slight issue with those as well. "Bloody hell, pick the rarest drops in the game why don't you?" he said with a laugh. "Han Juri's got a good drop rate at least. Inuzuri and Tamao should be on rate-up soon with Satoshi completing the major banner trio. You could always get one of them, but this game's got a weird system. Right now, your highest chance for a five-star that can be upgraded to six is Akiko. It's a minor banner, so Tatsuya, Benihime, Baiken and Yonsokei are all four-star units with Tatsuya and Baiken as upgradable to fives. Benihime does use Shikai in her ultimate skill, but the transformation comes with the five-star version from the 10th. So... feeling lucky? The game should start you with enough orbs to hit the pity system."

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy, Nikki had chosen the rarest drops in the game. This didn't really surprise her, her tastes were far beyond what one could consider normal. She liked good things, and people of good design and nature, especially in Bleach. The characters she'd mentioned had the best aesthetic as far as she was concerned. "My aesthetic taste isn't to be questioned. It only makes sense that they are all rare. Though given my luck I'll only get anything I want after swimming through a veritable sea of disappointment," she said this sentence and it sounded a bit bitter. Maybe her luck could be better in a game than it was in her actual life? After all, Ozzy had found her, and been absolutely perfect for the type of person she was... perhaps if she waited it out, she'd get everything she needed and deserved? But how much would her wallet have to suffer to make this happen? "What is this pity system? Like standard, guaranteed 4-stars every 10 or whatever most normal ones do?" she asked. There was a bit of certainty to be needed, but she'd have no problem pulling away she simply wanted to know what she was getting herself into. She couldn't help but find it amusing and be comfortable within the space of Ozzy's legs. Playing a game with a guy, happily? She didn't know this was possible, but she'd definitely enjoy it. There was a strange amount of happiness in Nikki as she thought about what a situation like this could lead to in the future. This warmth and comfort with a smiling face meant only for her? She could love this right?

[Bloodedge]

"Desire sensor get you, huh?" Oliver questioned, addressing a potential myth that often circulated around players of gacha and RPGs. It was a terrible phenomenon in which the character/item summon or stat roll one wanted, wound up being the exact thing they didn't receive. He'd seen this realized many times himself, collecting every possible character in a banner (some even multiple times) without getting the one he sought. Nikki would hopefully have much better luck than that, but they would both be finding out very soon.

First though, he had to explain the 'pity system' this game had. That was very easily done, and would cover every gacha produced by the Aeons. "Well the guaranteed four-star is always a thing, but Aeon games are a bit better. It's sort of a double-edged sword though, really. Every ten pulls guarantees a four-star, and at least every other four-star is guaranteed to be a character. Every hundred pulls is a guaranteed five-star with the same rules. One other thing, failing to get something from the banner guarantees a banner summon of the next matching type. That's the rules on Aeon games. Bleach is a little different since Zanpakutou are part of the characters, so everything in one pack is a unit. Basically 200 summons will get you Akiko in this case. The fours are a total gamble though. See what I mean about the double-edged sword though? Bit of a trap it is, kinda makes you wanna swipe your card because it'll only take 'this many' more pulls."

Long explanation come to an end, Ozzy settled in by resting his head atop Nikki's shoulder. She certainly wasn't the only one strangely satisfied and comfortable here. Ozzy's grip was kept firm, albeit not restrictive. Watching as the game loaded, he had but one more thing to say. "Good luck! I'd bless your pulls if I could, but... yeah, more of a curse, that."

[Apollymi]

"Every time, it's fine though... can't be worse than Moe Ninja Girls," she mentioned. That was a heartbreak and a half and took forever to get through, but she was already so invested in it she couldn't really stop playing it. She'd only stopped because she'd caught up to the story content and had nothing else to do. With the idea in mind that she would have to fight the desire sensor, perhaps she'd be best off mentally preparing herself to spend a bit of money. Whatever the case, Ozzy went on to explain how this particular game worked as far as its pity system. Apparently the Aeons games all came with a guaranteed 5-star at 100 pulls. And if one lost the 50/50 it was possible to push past that and guarantee the one you want next time. "Bloody trap and a half, but I guess if you don't win your fifty-fifty you could hold on to the guarantee for something you really want. It's pretty friendly, for those who are okay with heavy grinding. But definitely a trap for those who are willing to spend for instant gratification," she mentioned.

Ah, so all that was left after this, was for the loading to finish. Nikki was familiar enough with these kinds of games that she knew her first mission was to empty her mailbox of all available materials. "Alright, Welcome bonus, bloody, 5 million download bonus, freebie for patch update..." she mused softly reading the bits. "Oh, free upgrade materials given out for this months character birthdays as well... and a free set of crystals for general upgrades. Blimey this game is friendly. It's part of the trap though isn't it?" she questioned almost rhetorically. A chuckle would escape her as Ozzy claimed that he'd wish her luck if it wouldn't have turned out to be more of a curse. "There there, not like I need luck... I definitely have 100 free summons. I'll get something hopefully what I want~" she said pecking the lad on the cheek and beginning her rolling.

"Oohh!~ Got Benihime... Baiken... no Tatsuya and a couple of people I don't really care about but, whatever~" she said confirming all the four stars she'd managed to collect but what she really wanted to see, was the the golden light of a five star character at some 70 pulls. She hadn't gotten pushed all the way to pity but the pit of her stomach dropped as she waited to see what would happen. Then she closed her eyes. "Bloody hell I can't watch! I'm scared...." she said as her heart pounded. "Is it bad... is it a dub? Just tell me it isn't Terumi..." she said softly. How very stressful this situation had suddenly become. What was on the screen? The Captain of the 13th Division, Namikaze Minato.

[Bloodedge]

"Moe! I had a mate addicted to that one once. All he did, every day, was complain about only being able to play a small chunk of a chapter. Bloke spent a whole check just to play through a date in one sitting. He even went and mucked it all up after a few hundred pounds. I couldn't bother trying it out after hearing all that." What a hell of a tale that was, day after day from an old pal. From what he had, that game had compelling interactions with its characters, which made that friend of his want to play its story for hours on end. Alas, the stamina system within said game didn't even grant enough story tickets to play a full chapter in 24 hours.

The Aeon games may have been quite the trap, but Ozzy knew them to be incredibly friendly to free players as well. The trap wasn't so much targeting the consumers' wallets, but instead their time as an alternative. "I promise these are some of the best gachas I've ever seen. Seriously, they're very F2P-friendly... but, the catch is that you have to be playing all the time. Every update, you can at least grab a guaranteed five-star, and that's without events going," he explained. He had a rather long train of thought going regarding the game Nikki was starting, though it all came to a screeching halt the moment her lips met his cheek. Ozzy couldn't have expected to have such a reaction to small things such as this, yet his mind blanked in a single moment. Suddenly, he found himself thinking only one thing: this was actually real. Was he having a heart attack? No, certainly not─ probably just a beat skip. "Bloody hell, I feel like I've gone back to primary school," he said in the most lackadaisical manner.

Now then, there was a summoning to be done. Nikki clicked and clicked, acquiring some very solid units. It was a shame she didn't obtain the one called Tatsuya, who happened to be a very solid addition to any team composition in cooperative play... but alas, there were other characters present to fit the role. At long last, the golden glow of summoning appeared! "Five-star before soft pity; that's pog!" Ozzy announced. Anxiety overtook the lass, and her eyes closed while the character she summoned appeared on screen. Fear was very rational, considering how many characters there were to choose from. "Pausechamp," Ozzy muttered just before the character's silhouette appeared, and then... "Ohhh, that's a dub! It's not Akiko, but that is an astronomical dub!" It seemed Ozzy had reverted to how he behaved when streaming his own games, but it was simply the way he approached such situations in general. In the case of Nikki's character pull, it wasn't one from her preferred list... but Ozzy knew it to be a very solid character, and one of his personal favorites.

[Apollymi]

Ozzy told a story of a friend who found himself addicted to Moe. She could see how such a thing could happen, the 'waifu' potential of a game like that was indeed very high, especially for weebs and weeblets. "Blimey, that's a tough break. I mean, it was a fun game. If you enjoy the Otomo stylings you can have a great time with it... I personally only got really caught up in it because of clothes. I needed some new fits for my characters and thus spent way too much time rolling the gacha," she said of herself. She understood how such a thing happened, gacha games should come with warnings.

According to Ozzy, these Aeons games were a lot less of a trap in that manner. He claimed you could get a five-star for free during each update. Such a thing was almost unheard of, "Well, at least I know I won't have to spend literally all the time," she said. She could put in quite a few hours on this game, based solely upon liking the characters within it. Apparently that little peck on the cheek had changed something for Ozzy. He made the claim that he felt like he was back in primary school, which made Nikki chuckle. "Oh? Flashbacks to times of happy innocence, or are you like me and stuck in a semi-constant state of realizing how randomly great this actually is?" she asked of he man behind her as she rolled away.

But soon her own cheeky commentary was cut short. That five star came with a bit of low speech. Apparently, as her heartbeat fluttered away in her chest she was assured her go wasn't Akiko, never would have been that lucky. But she'd been given something that Ozzy called a win. She could take him at his word that this unit was good and opened her eyes to discover who it was, a blonde man by the name of Minato Namikaze. "Oh... well I suppose can't be bad... would have preferred Juri but that is my luck," Nikki gave a pause while pouting. This was genuine pouting. She didn't hate Minato, she probably should given her general aversion to blondes that she'd developed her first year to Uni. Oh well, this was definitely going to happen. "I didn't want him, guess I am spending this money then... what do the packs look like~" she said having a quick glance over the the summoning currency in the shop. The exchange rate wasn't terrible, "Blimey 80 pounds for a guaranteed five star, and that is only with the monthly bonus. I guess that isn't terrible, unless you get into the habit of spending ridiculously. This really is even friendly to low spenders..." she mused. In before she absently clicked to add currency to her own. "And that's no problem, I can definitely spend all that money I am not spending on the shoes I knicked from my sister's place~" she said in a light tone. And then the rolling would begin again.

[Bloodedge]

"Oh I'm sure it's loads of fun, but I'm frivolous enough as it stands. I'd be the bloke getting caught on a cliffhanger in the story, then boom! Empty wallet, no more new content for Twitch," he rambled. Nikki's reason for getting into such a game was fair, considering her preferences. His reasons would have been quite different, but his refusal to leave a story hanging would have left him in the same boat as the man he mentioned.

Not having to spend money for success and enjoyment had always been one of the biggest appeals to the Aeons' game franchises. Each game quickly gained a massive following as a result of this positive, breaking numerous records in the gacha genre of games. Speaking of records though, there was a record currently being broken on how long Ozzy could be silenced by something that shouldn't have even surprised him. Nikki was absolutely correct in her assertion. Coming to terms with the reality of their current situation was going to take a great deal of adjustment, though the adjustment would itself be great as well. "Something like that, yeah. I'll probably get my life together eventually, some time after I've gone mad."

Nikki didn't want the character Namikaze Minato. That was a shame; he was one of the more versatile units as far as Ozzy was concerned. Alas, everyone had their preferences, different reasons for wanting different characters and so on. "Well it's got a bright side, right? He combos well with Akiko's Bankai. One of his moves is some flashy Devil May Cry type shit that can hit loads of enemies with little input if you have them grouped up. If you go for maining Akiko, that's a good team!" he assured as Nikki went about topping up her account's currency. He was much the same in these early moments of a gacha─ dumping a starter amount of money into the game for a comfortable, fun starting experience. Interestingly though, she mentioned being able to spend a bit of money because she stole the shoes she wore from her sister. "Bloody scoundrel you are!" he said with a laugh. "Well, I'm sure they work better on you anyway~"

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy he'd play a game like that and go broke not wanting the cliffhangers at the end. A chuckle escaped her, she understood the potential there, "Bloody hell, the Aeons' manga must leave you upset all the time then, huh?" she asked of the lad who would have been upset by cliffhangers in an Otomo game he should have had a very serious problem, with the writing whimsy of the Aeons. Whatever the case, his extended silence was soon broken by the idea that yes, he was also suffering from realizing how nice such moments were between them. He even went on to comment that he'd probably get his life together after going mad. "Well, take your time. It's been like twenty-four hours, I bloody well don't blame you for going a little mad~" Nikki responded. She'd been on several small spirals since meeting this man, but had very easily come to terms with it.

What she wasn't going to come to terms with was her current rolling. Apparently, Namikaze Minato had some nice ability to team up with Akiko whom she was currently rolling for. She gave only a small smile and nodded. "I don't hate him or anything. It is simply exactly my luck to get the character I am not looking for in stuff like this. It's never half bad though, and I usually grow to love them through their unlocks," she said of her own general habits in games like this. It was also nice to know that the Aeons games treated their fanbase as well as the Aeons treated them. As her rolls started she was pushed to some ninety before seeing that golden light again. In the meant time she picked up some more random characters while chatting about her shoe thievery. "They've been sitting there for three months. I liberated them... I'm a bloody hero!~" she chided back with mock indignation. "Besides they weren't even her size. She likely won't even notice they're gone. Sister rules dictate if it fits you and they don't call you on it, it's yours." There was always something strange about this sort of thing too. Even though he didn't know who her sister was he claimed that those shoes looked better on Nikki a chuckle would escape her. Soon enough that final roll got her Akiko and Tatsuya which made her smile. "Bout bloody time. Making me wait forever..." she said taking note of left over rolls.

Ah and then came the actual pull of gacha games. She had some left over and knew she could earn more before it was time for the next banner. Best case scenario she got something off banner that she wanted and had a guarantee on her next. Worse case she ended up with a copy of Akiko and that led to... Her gaze shifted as she clicked on Akiko's character shifting it to the start of her first party set up. After she'd place Baiken, Benihime and then Tatsuya. "Oh, 12th Division is pretty nice as a group. This one is nice..." she said clicking on Ayatsuki and checking to see how multiples of characters worked in this game. "Hm, if I get an extra of her... it unlocks her Lollipops. Oooh, that'd be alright a bit of self-healing and energy replenishment." she mentioned before going back to the wishing screen. Why shouldn't she... why shouldn't she roll for broke here? she asked herself while pushing the button. "No regrets," she mentioned. On her immediate next pull she saw that golden glow again. What was it this time. Her heart beat sped up again and she covered her eyes. "Bloody hell, my heart can't take this.... who is it?" she asked with her eyes closed tightly. She couldn't even say what she wanted more but with her list in tact there were very few losses to take here.

[Bloodedge]

A question came, and oh boy did Ozzy have an answer for it. Cliffhangers were a notorious feature of those damn manga, but they were all so compelling that he couldn't even think of putting one down. "It never stops! There's no telling when I'll get around to the next chapter of Naruto. I spend half the time waiting as long as possible before I read a volume, just to shorten the time before the next. I know it doesn't really make a difference, but screw it right? I've already adjusted to waiting after the last release─"

His struggles with series continuation aside, Ozzy's eyes were just about glued to the screen ahead. Nikki's luck was about as terrible as his own, based on what she had to say. He had many characters in this very game that he didn't care much for, and he had to sort through them all to get what he wanted. As for the theft of various clothing articles, it seemed to simply be attributed to... well, sisters in general. Ozzy could definitely see that, albeit with some caveats. "Is there some missing clause when there's a brother involved? I've called Bree on her shit half a dozen times, and I'm still missing some of my favorite jumpers from years ago!" he announced. Well, maybe Aubree herself was the exception in this case. He doubted she would have returned his articles regardless of whatever 'rules' sisters had.

At long last, Nikki had what she'd been looking for: Ayatsuki Akiko! It was none too soon, but she seemed satisfied to have it nonetheless. Ozzy, too, was elated. It would have been terrible to start on a sour note, but she would now be able to have a fair bit of fun from the start. "That's the stuff! We don't take Ls here~" he chimed. "12th Division gives a good bonus too, see? You'll get mad buffs from using gadgets and stuff!" Ah, but there was always yet another curse to the gacha experience. Nikki looked into the benefits of receiving multiple copies of the character she wanted, and decided... to spend the rest of her in-game currency. She did this with the statement no regrets, which prompted Ozzy to repeat yet another phrase he often said to his chat. "We go again!" And with that, the summoning began anew. One more click, and that golden glow reappeared, causing Nikki's fear reaction to return as well. Ozzy laughed, and his eyes widened as the silhouette flashed. "No way!" he yelled excitedly. "You might not be excited, but what the actual hell?! That's a god damn Kogara! Best Burst DPS in the game, that! Absolute dub!"

[Apollymi]

Ah, a nerve was struck. It seemed that Ozzy did indeed have a problem with the multiple cliffhangers presented by the Aeons in their works. Naruto in particular was notorious for its tension heightening stopping points. "I did the same thing. It never works though... I always tell myself, I'll just read a bit and stop and the next thing I know I've crushed a volume and am filled with dread cause bloody hell what do we have to do to find out how a single scene ends in the whole goddamn series?" Nikki ranted away as well, of course the stories were among her favorites. "I technically stopped last right after the revival of Kanna... I've been putting off the next volume because I'm antsy and they already bloody cliff-hangered the Gaiden," she mumbled about her own situation and not being quite caught up on Naruto as of yet.

When asked about the nature of clothing theft. Apparently his younger sister stole a great number of his clothing items and never returned them even when called on having them. A laugh escaped Nikki as she thought it over, "Well, I don't have a brother or anything, but I imagine it works more like boyfriend clothes. Where once you take them, they are yours forever... no arguments. Not like a boy needs a 1000 jumpers or anything. Besides, you should be nice and share those roomy pockets with your sister. Girl clothes are notorious for not having 'em, and it's bloody inconvenient. Like really what's a lass gotta do to be able to carry her phone, wallet, and keys without needing a whole handbag? The answer currently is to steal a much more comfy jumper from a man and appreciate all of the pocket space he takes for granted! Fuck all of a problem of putting pockets on clothes or anything, it doesn't take much or even change the bloody lines or anything. It's like three seconds...." Oh... that one had gotten a little out of hand. Actually, most articles of clothing Nikki designed for women featured pockets. Even her dress from the previous day did, because she was so furiously against the lack of real pockets on women's clothing. It was one of the few things that could get her worked up, and one rant which she found herself cutting out of her videos because she thought it was a bit too much for regular consumption. She had the nerve to look a bit abashed by her outburst but by the time it happened they that golden glow had already returned. And she was covering her eyes again.

Ah, what did she get? Kogara. Kogara Satoshi Captain of the 8th Division, one of the 'old' generation. Powerful without a doubt, his character seemed a bit shady Nikki's own standards but... that wasn't really the problem here. Ah, plus there was Ozzy here, hyping her up. She imagined by his actions that his stream was full of random happiness. She really would have to check in on one. "Bloody hell, I get that he's good but my luck is contrary. I guess I'll be waiting on that rate up for the characters I actually wanted but... I can at least work with him. I don't hate him... And you aren't half convincing with that excitement of yours..." she said with a minor pout, which seemed to be a bit of a flirty smirk at the end. She asked for Inuzuri or Tamao and got... Kogara. She'd wronged someone in the universe or something. Whatever the case. She pulled up her party menu and built another set. "Hm, these 5 stars are pretty good too. Ayatsuki, Minato, Kogara... Oh, right I got Megumi as well. Good well rounded team that. I guess if this is one of those where I just wanna rush something I could use that one. Ah... but which one to raise first?" she found herself wondering. She had time now, and was relatively content.

[Bloodedge]

"Tell me about it. It only gets worse when you're into multiple series of theirs. One's always basically on hiatus so they can push a few volumes of another, yadda yadda. It's like following a damn novel series," Ozzy commented, though he couldn't at all complain about the content received once a new volume of something was released. In the same way, he couldn't really complain about his sister stealing his jumpers to wear around. As long as she wasn't parading herself around in a string or something, he could avoid having a literal heart attack. . . "Well, at least she makes it work. I'd have to disown her if she didn't make my good shit look good!" he insisted in jest, though he truly would have been rather cross if she ruined the look of things he'd purchased.

Nikki went on quite the tangent, all over pockets (or a lack thereof) in women's clothing. Ozzy was dumbfounded, though he couldn't fault her for taking issue with it. The more he thought about it, the more he even came to realize how atrocious living day by day would have to be without pockets. A lass with a nice, size-conscious handbag matching her outfit was attractive and all, but that was a massive inconvenience not worth the extra trouble. "Sounds like motivation to me. Just don't go stripping your male line of pockets to get revenge, eh? Us modern blokes didn't do that to you lot~" he joked. Since she seemed so worked up, Ozzy's arms shifted from her midriff, his hands taking their place atop her shoulders instead. "Oh, and... breathe~" he concluded with a press of his lips against her neck.

As Nikki went through her full list of characters, she shared her opinion about the latest five-star pickup. It wasn't an amazing pull, but good in terms of effectiveness. That was about what he expected with powerful units in general; there were a few whom Ozzy looked upon the same way. The question though, was who Nikki would be providing levels and other such things to first in this newly-constructed team of hers. Considering what her general approach had been thus far, he thought to suggest what he considered the obvious choice. "You spent money because you were hyped for Akiko. I say give her a go. Definitely not the strongest you've got there, but she's one of the funnest technical characters there is, so you probably won't get bored of her mechanics or anything. I'd say Kogara last for the same reason; he's sort of just a nuke at the end of it all."

[Apollymi]

Ozzy was right, waiting on the Aeons was like waiting on a novel series. "You know they teased something like that a while back. If they actually are working on a legitimate novel... we're all gonna suffer. Well, until the extra content comes back~" she said with a knowing smirk. Of course the Aeons could do such things and their loyal fanbase would always wait around and snatch up whatever new content they could get their hands on. Nikki herself was guilty of eventually going to their more obscure series when she read her favorites and ran out of material. Whatever the case, the lad jokingly claimed that he'd have disowned his sister for not owning the looks he claimed for herself. "Disowning for that, for shame... well, I can't think of anything she wouldn't look good in. And I spend a lot of time thinking about it~" she said of his younger sister, in a completely platonic non-stalker manner.

Moving on from such a moment her entire tangent was met in a very strange way. Though she normally didn't allow things to get to her, the lack of pockets on women's clothing was indeed a hot-button topic. Ozzy for his part in this, expressed nothing but joking concern, and made a plea for her vengeance to not be taken upon men who buy her male clothing line whenever that was to come back into focus. Before she could speak on that though, she was told to breathe, while the lads hands moved from around her midriff to her shoulders and a gentle kiss was placed upon her neck. Something so very chaste did very strange things to Nikki's person, giving her more than brief pause. "Blimey..." she said initially only to have something more to say after allowing her eyes to shift from the screen to the lad behind her. "No worries. It's not like I would remove pockets from men's clothing. I just got into the habit of adding them to various types of women's clothing, at appropriate sizes. I'm a designer... I'm not vindictive," she mentioned happily. "Well, I'll definitely not be now," she added with a chuckle.

Moving right along, she was bound to be more surprised than anything else. Her wondering aloud about what character to build would lead Ozzy to telling her she should build the character she'd spent her money to get. She couldn't help but find that attitude refreshing. She'd already found him to be very interesting in how he didn't judge her gaming preferences. Now he was telling her to just go full into the character she favored regardless of her viability as a damage dealer. What was more he did this while knowing she possessed one of the more powerful units that the game had to offer. "Oh, you're really kind of strange... I don't think I've ever had someone recommend me just to build my favorite in a game before..." she said softly. "You're really bloody perfect aren't you?" she asked him genuinely surprised.

[Bloodedge]

The Aeons, writing a novel. What was anyone going to do with that, if that was going to be added to their other works? Ozzy had also seen some information on said novel series, and... he was definitely going to be reading it. "One with the vampires, yeah? That one's supposed to be their rework on an old manga series, turning it into a proper story. You know, sort of like the other things they redid but... more in-depth I reckon. We should read it together when it comes out; we'll make a day of it!" said Ozzy, easily falling into the habit of considering his every future endeavor as if Nikki would undoubtedly be involved.

Ah, it worked both ways! Ozzy wasn't the only one heavily taken aback by simple gestures between them. One day, these things would be normal. Until then though, it was worth enjoying these moments of shock and realization. "Weak spot in the neck, is it?" he inquired, as if to tease that his effort had been the determining factor of Nikki's decision to leave men's pockets in her clothing line. It was a fun little thought to play around with, even knowing this entire part of the discussion was just playing around for the sake of it. He'd even go on to confirm this notion for himself. "Hell yeah. I might fancy abusing that to get everything I want!"

Ozzy's recommendation was sure to be taken, right? It only made sense to him that Nikki would have the best experience using the character she was excited for─ especially given the fact that said character was nothing if not mechanically diverse to be enjoyed by most who liked her already. Apparently though, her unspoken acceptance of the suggestion was only to come alongside surprise. She'd never been advised to build a character specifically for her own enjoyment? That was not surprising. "Oh piss off, I hate the load of crap coming from people who look at numbers and pick based on that. Anime games aren't made to be sweaty; they're made so us fans can watch our favorite characters do all that good stuff we like seeing them do! If anybody says anything else, I'll have them!" Ozzy was firm on this matter. While Nikki took great issue with the lack of pockets in women's clothing, Ozzy had gripes with gatekeepers in video games and other such sources of entertainment. He refused to allow that sort of madness in his Twitch chat, in his community in general, and his moderators were cleared to ban anyone who tried to go against that little rule. "Besides, all that dumb stuff does is make everybody play the same, and that doesn't even work. I've done speed runs in a couple of games before, and it's only fun when you're high on copium or actually just some sweaty wanker."

[Apollymi]

Oh? It seemed that Ozzy too was in the know about the Aeons' upcoming works. Though she'd met other nerdy men before in her life, never had she met one who was so open with his as Ozzy was being. Beyond that there was something outwardly inviting about him. Normally when she had conversations like these, it became a Q&A of the most extreme form. She was drilled about how she knew this information, called an unreal fan and made to just feel generally unwelcome within the space of such nerd activities. Even though she'd been this sort of nerd most of her life. Ah, and there was extra, Ozzy was really taken with the idea of being a long term part of Nikki's life. All of his statements were implications of their future together and this was no different. "Bloody hell, that still takes some extra getting used to, I haven't been grilled once since talking to you... I am really not used to this," she said softly. "And yeah, we can definitely make a day of it. Especially, if they keep their split perspective writing. We could actually read it together~" she mused. She imagined a future day with the book dropping and the pair of them seated not so differently from this, taking turns reading aloud what would be the most intense romance novel of the modern age.

Whatever the case, that slight reaction to the kiss of her neck, brought more from Ozzy as well. He claimed to have found her weak spot and he wasn't necessarily wrong. "I, will neither confirm or deny this..." she said while looking sheepish. Of course, such a statement would only make it more obvious that this was indeed the case. Actually, given his current positioning and access he could talk her into just about anything. As for him actually doing so, she could only shrug. "Just take it easy on me, yeah?~" she asked as she got around to start playing.

Ah, and here it was. Accordingly, Ozzy wasn't much surprised by what she had to say about her previous experience getting into games. That being said, his statements on the matter were again, refreshing. He claimed a certain amount of freedom was necessary in this matter. And he also stated that anime games weren't about numbers but instead about your favorite characters doing all the things you love. "Blimey," there were practically stars in this lass, eyes. Ozzy had to be the least toxic, non-wanker nerd she'd ever met. In a sea of crap she'd found an absolute gem. "I really like that attitude. I where have you been all my life?" she asked rhetorically. Encouraging variation, not claiming that everyone had to do the same thing in games. Just wanting people to have fun, Nikoleta was practically swooning. It was one thing not to judge her Sims life, it was a completely different thing to encourage her whole likes and dislikes. "Hm, I don't understand what copium is, but I've never found speed running fun like that. Besides, skill thresholds are different in games... I'd rather do what I like, and would do... but it's nice to confirm that not everyone is a bloody wanker."

[Bloodedge]

A new experience could be marked in Nikki's notebook today, apparently─ or rather, another new experience. She'd clearly seen her fair share of toxic gamers left and right, as Ozzy figured based on when she first mentioned playing games. It truly was a shame, though there was really nothing to be done about it. "It'd be pretty dumb to grill over that sort of stuff. I really don't get how anyone these days can talk about wanting a nerd girlfriend, but expect one to be into beatstick shounen with no bloody plotline enough to name five random characters from it. Same goes for games; it's like everybody forgot what they're even made for." Oh, he could ramble on for days about the modern state of media consumption. Instead though, he preferred the idea of carrying on about something less... stressful, as it were. "Yeah, that'd be brilliant! I'll make sure to put on my epic man voice and attack your neck when the vampire bloke is on scene~" he teased. No, he wasn't going to be taking it easy at all. There was a spot to abuse, and it worked marvelously from what he could tell. What was to stop him from using Nikki's neck as the lock to a door he could use to bypass the threshold into her headspace at any given moment?

Ozzy's attitude regarding video game approaches was appreciated. Good. Any who disagreed tended to be the sort of toxic gamers he'd rather avoid, though women didn't tend to be in that group. Well, they did have a group of their own that he veered away from, but only by fault of assumptions being made about his own approach before any evidence was gained to the contrary. Oh well; Nikki wasn't one of those types either. Where had he been all of her life? "Riding the fence, mostly. Y'know, stuck between toxic gamers and the equally toxic anti-toxic gamer gamers. It's a dark place, really. Oh, apart from the last year or so. I was at the other end of your recording for that bit," he said, moving on to address matters of the phrase... copium. As a streamer, Ozzy had long since taken to saying such phrases as much in life as he did on camera. It was an almost unavoidable habit, but the people he spoke to normally understood it by virtue of being his fans. "Copium is like... cope and opium. You know, that moment when you're trying to find the good in the worst possible situation? I shouldn't just be saying it at random like that, but it's a habit by now. All those terrible character pulls, trying to find something they're good for just to pretend it's a dub instead of an L. Copium."

[Apollymi]

Nikki could only nod in understanding. She was right on board with how idiotic it was, to gatekeep against people who share interests. "I agree without question. It's also a total turn off to not be able to have a regular conversation with someone about stuff you like because they get hyper-defensive," she said willing to leave that topic for now as it was obviously a point of soreness for everyone involved. Whatever the case, Ozzy offered to use his epic man voice while they participated in the active reading of the Aeons' newest work. "Oy, I said take it easy on me... that sounds like the exact opposite. Still, I wouldn't really mind too much I guess. I am also curious about this epic man voice~" she mused happily. She already found him quite a bit beyond majorly attractive, if his voice became any better she'd likely end up in just as bad a situation as he appeared to be.

According to Ozzy, he'd been riding the fence her whole life, stuck between two equally crazy groups of people in the video game world. She understood this to a great extent. Still, she was happy to have him with her now, and happy that in the past she'd helped him a bit, even inadvertently. "Well, glad to be of help in that terrible situation~" she offered with a cheeky smirk. Beyond this there was some extra information, offered about the term copium. Apparently it was one of his stream terms which was like making the best out of his bad situation. "Ah... that's brilliant. I never had a proper word for that before... I like it!~" she mused. To Nikki there was no extreme need for him to change his speech or anything around her. She'd simply ask for clarification when it was needed, and check up on his stream for context clues about it later. "More and more that stream of yours seems like a cool place. Might have to go lurker mode and look in on it~" she stated. Well, that was the plan in general, she simply had to do a few minor things to be notified of when he next went live and she'd see what his community was like.

[Bloodedge]

"Right? I wouldn't be half as interested in you if I didn't think I could spend all day chatting you up about any and everything that comes to mind. And look; I was right. Even better than I thought it'd be, really," Ozzy claimed. Take it easy, she repeated. No. His answer would be a solid no. For the conceivable future, he would be a salesman with himself as the product, and Nikki as his singular consumer audience. She even claimed that she wouldn't mind, and that she was curious about the voice he spoke of. Truthfully, it was an embarrassing thing to do anywhere but his stream, yet... he couldn't really say no to the lass if she brought it up.

Well, maybe that could be glanced over. Yes, it could easily be lost in conversation while they talked about his presence and the meaning of copium. She fancied the word, making Ozzy believe he would eventually be hearing it from her mouth as well. That would be interesting. Moreover, she brought up an interest in his stream, stating that she may wind up lurking in the chat to observe one. "Lurker mode? If you're gonna hop in the stream, don't bother with that. Get involved; nobody bites. Besides, the mods and everybody else in chat like to call out lurkers. Oy, here's an idea! Fancy having a bigger list of characters, or a solid start on another gacha?"

[Apollymi]

"Blimey, I'm going to start believing your sole purpose in life is inflating my ego, if you keep slipping those in there~" Nikki mentioned. This man was terrible for her sense of self. She was a rather small being after all. She had big goals, good dreams and a fairly stable personality. What she didn't really have was the amount of confidence this man seemed to have on her behalf. Still, it was nice to know he enjoyed speaking with her, not simply looking at her or using her. There were many benefits to a man as honest as Ozzy was, and feeling genuinely appreciated was one of them.

It seemed this epic man voice was glossed over. Lost upon the topic of something as simple as her commentary about being in lurker mode while stalking his stream. According to him his chat and mods called out people like that, and he made the claim, that nobody bites and that if she wanted to get on the stream she should get involved with one of them. "Uh, not that I don't believe you. But honestly online communities are scary to me. My own included probably extra at this point..." she said. There was after all a reason she only noticed Ozzy's user tag in passing and it had a lot to do with the normal vitriol she received from her community on a daily basis. A great number of them were pretty normal girls asking for advice or complimenting her work, or wanting an opinion on some thing or another. A great number of them however were just guys who stumbled upon her and aggressively decided to pursue her in her comments section. It'd gotten bad enough for her to put on a moderator to get rid of the really malicious ones. Even so, she was one for new experiences and technically wouldn't mind popping in on Ozzy's stream and he seemed to have an idea. "What sort of idea are you talking about here?" she asked having put together a bit and wondering how he was going to manage it. All the while she'd gotten pretty decently far on the level grind of Akiko and was genuinely enjoying the gameplay, much as Ozzy said she would.

[Bloodedge]

One good thing after another. Nikki seemed to accept that he would be continuing to bolster her sense of self where possible. More importantly, he didn't have to make an absolute fool of himself by doing that damnable voice! Why did he even mention that? He really needed to learn a few methods of shutting his gob to avoid embarrassment in the near future. Luckily though, it wasn't an immediate worry at all. Nikki was moving on, specifically to her gripes with online communities. Ozzy could understand this. Even so, he could recommend no group of people more so than his own followers. He and Nikki had one major follower in common, at least, in the form of the user Ferrichan. Maybe he could start his defense there? "I understand. My community is a good bunch though─ cross my heart! You already know Felix. He's a bit of a wanker when he wants to be, but he means well. Everyone's like that to some extent," he said of his Twitch chat.

His idea was brought into question. Well, that showed at least a bit of interest, and surely Nikki had an inkling what he would suggest. She asked though, so of course he would tell. "Come on my stream for an hour or so. I can start a short one quick, and the lads are always ready and willing to throw their money around for a few gacha pulls. You can meet the fam, see how the atmosphere is, and you can either get characters here or in one of the other Aeon games. Whaddaya say? You could pull Juri, Inuzuri, Tamao, or even try getting yourself in Naruto~"

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy his community was good people. How did he start his defense... with Ferrichan. Ah, that was a good lad, a bit of troll but it was never bad in Nikki's opinion. Actually, that one was always full of questions and one of the few males who appeared in her comments section to get his questions answered on a regular basis. Oddly observant was that one, always peaking about, and in her Q&As asking random questions which weren't too personal but also about her interests beyond fashion. "Well, Felix is a bit of a weirdo to be honest. He's pretty good though, never had a problem with him since he popped up ages ago..." she said with a knowing smirk. "And if you vouch for them I suppose they can't be bad. You have some pretty hardcore opinions, but I can't fault your tastes," she said oh she was about to be talked into something strange and she knew it.

The offer of strangeness? An hour on Ozzy's stream, meeting his community, getting some pulls and getting a feel for the atmosphere? Well, she couldn't really say no to that. Besides he did mention needing to check on his stream and update them... she definitely didn't have any intention of keeping him from things which were important to him. Besides all of that, Nikki wasn't opposed to trying new things, and given she planned to keep Ozzy around forever, there was a good chance she'd encounter the stream at some point or another. Best to rip the bandaid off so to speak. Besides the offer on the table was a rather interesting one. "I could break on a bit more... I still would prefer at least that first extra Akiko and I wouldn't mind one of the others I actually wanted..." she said softly looking a bit strangely. She knew of the Naruto update but she hadn't mentioned it. "I'm already queued up to play the Naruto one. The Aeons told me I'd be released in the newest banner but since it was in the Sand Village I kind of wanted to play it anyways... I was gonna pull on that banner anyways..." she said giving herself a bit of pause. Her favorite in the Sand Village was the character Machi. He came back with great energy, was hugely humorous and great as a gag all around. It wasn't until now that she realized something rather important. Machi was her favorite character and... his face claim was Ozzy. Maybe they didn't look that much alike and she was right not to notice upon meeting him in person? She was deep in thought, enough that her bottom lip would soon be found within her mouth, being grazed by her teeth.

[Bloodedge]

Felix was a weirdo; they could always agree on that. He remained one of the best lads Ozzy had ever known under all that chaotic energy he presented, making his mannerisms oddly charming. He would always be one of the first options if Ozzy was trying to address the goodness of the God-King community. "See? He's more trouble than he's worth, but it's a good sort of trouble. And now I owe him a favor for randomly popping in to help me out earlier," Ozzy admitted of the lad's random drop-in at the convention panel.

Nikki had the itch of a gacha gamer; Ozzy could feel it when she first spent a bit of money on her new Brave Souls account. No one could resist the potential for a few free rolls, right? Well, that wasn't true. He could, and he often insisted that his chat stop suggesting that they throw money at him. In the case of Nikki, however, he'd even join them in funding her account. She even took the proverbial bait, giving more than a small amount of consideration to the idea of joining his stream. "Sounds like a yes to me~" he claimed. It would take nothing to start an unannounced stream and still bring in a large chunk of his audience. Considering they were both fully nude in front of his laptop, there was plenty of time to provide a bit of warning as well. "So, throw something on while I announce a new stream? Assuming you don't want a few thousand people randomly seeing your tits and bits, that is. I might get banned if you're into that sort of thing, and... maybe a few fights to boot."

[Apollymi]

More trouble than he was worth, was the kitten faced lad known as Felix. Even so, she also truly agreed he was the good sort of trouble. She had no qualms with the idea of Ozzy using him as a shining example of the 'goodness' of his chat. "Hm, I guess he was the reason I ended up in your lap yesterday..." she said, recalling the events of the previous day and finding that to be a more than acceptable reason to back the lad. Beyond his antics he'd also shown up wearing one of Nikki's dresses and looking absolutely at home in it and she could appreciate his stylistic choices. Above and beyond that lad was at least partially responsible for her current happiness and that was enough for Nikki.

Moving on from it, Ozzy interpreted her sheepishness as a yes. And it was for multiple reasons. Nikki really couldn't resist a few gachas. She never really went overboard and always stuck to her intended budgets but gachas, and manga were her guilty pleasure things. She couldn't really turn down a few rolls while chatting with some apparently more tolerant people. "Yeah, what the hell. Might as well get myself a first hand perspective. Find out what a non-toxic community is like..." she mused. As for the matter of her tits and bits she chuckled as she rose from in front of his lap. "Bloody hell, can't have you fighting or getting banned. And I'm definitely not into anything like that, I don't even like being seen without ears and whiskers, definitely not going nude for strangers," she said with a light-hearted sound escaping her. "You should just remember to put on some pants. I know the dangers of streamers~" she said with a knowing little finger wag, before sauntering off to fix herself up. She was definitely not the type to be seen half done in public at all, ever. Even her relaxed looks were well thought out, and right now she was going to the bedroom of her suite to determine the level of relaxed she'd be presenting herself with today.

[Bloodedge]

"See what I mean?" Ozzy questioned. Felix had been the one goading Nikki into taking a position atop Ozzy's lap, effectively placing her upon his groin. "He put you in my lap, and that sorta landed me here, didn't it? We like Felix around these parts~" As he (partially) joked about in this manner, he prepared himself for the soon-to-be departure of Nikki. She was willing to join the stream for a bit, and that led to her rise. Ozzy leaned back in the meantime, watching her get out of position, and indeed keeping his eye trained on her for every step she took while still visible. No way was he going to miss out on that sight. He even had some commentary to share for the sake of having it. "Well take your time regardless. Spare the world perfection, but I need a bit more on my plate," he offered.

Right. Pants. Normal people wore pants. They had a brief exchange about that earlier, but despite all his near-accidents, Ozzy rarely sported a pair of breeches while streaming. Oh well; he could make do here. "Pants, yeah. Just pants," he joked, implying he would be going the opposite route of the normal streaming setup. Actually, a small part of him thought that wouldn't be the most terrible idea. What better way to slyly admit to his chat what he'd been up to for the past day? No, he wouldn't do that. He would however, go about logging into Twitch and Twitter, making his announcement of a surprise stream on the latter platform.

[Apollymi]

"Right? Nice meddlesome cat-boy as a wingman. Admittedly though, you didn't need that much help. I was definitely more than halfway here all on my own~" she stated factually. To be honest, ending up in Ozzy's lap had been the last push, but she was more than 80 percent there all on her own. Having made her exodus, Nikki was headed off to dress only to hear Ozzy's words and have her eyes widen. Spare the world perfection, but he needed a bit more? "Bloody hell, Ozzy, you're killing me here~" she mused. Did he really think her face was so perfect in its most barren state? Well, yes was the obvious answer considering the previous night when she'd actually removed her makeup it was almost entirely true that the lad thought her gorgeous as she was. Such information was surprising but not necessarily a bad thing for Nikki, she thought him absolutely gorgeous too.

Moving right along, what was the designer/composer of fashion doing for her own look today. Well, there was one thing she would start off with always... ears. Hair was being put back into place. Not a high ponytail like before but simply being held a bit further down for the sake of fluff. Ah, and a nice classic pair of black bunny ears... those would be for the best. Alright with that taken care of, there was the matter of actual clothing. Another thong was easy enough, this one dangerously close to her own skin tone. Now, she was busy looking at herself in the mirror. Her look in general was always the same, but ah... that little hickey was present on her neck now. She tilted her own head from left to right. She had no intention of hiding it. No. She held up her fingers as if framing a picture. She'd show it off instead, frame it for the world. Such was her way, "Blimey, that'd be a day wouldn't it~" she joked right along with him. Moving on, she picked out the appropriate level of clothing to properly frame the little love bite on her neck. Bra, black with thin straps and the same color brown lace as her panties around the cup. Not seen but mostly for the strap. Swooping off the shoulder jumper, it was cream colored. Cozy, comfy general wear type of deal. Longer than necessary, like a mini-dress. Ah, but she couldn't get away just that... now she needed something for her actual bottom. What a difficult choice... would she go for shorts or yoga pants? Either work for an at home or quick popping out look. Yoga pants were multiple purpose. In all day, pop out to the store and keep your legs warm... work out if you need to? All the while the color combination of the jumper and strap of her bra perfectly framed that little mark on her shoulder. Nikki slipped into a pair of black yoga pants, and completed the look. Perfectly framed that little mark on her neck and managed to look perfectly imperfect. Now all that was left were the little red marks on her cheeks which were so normal on her, they'd draw more attention to that little mark. A cheeky smirk crossed her face as she completed her look. Yeah, she liked it.

[Bloodedge]

Was his statement a bit too much? Nonsense; it was a simple fact of life. As he watched her walk to the next room, he confirmed that he could view such a thing all day. Could he have that sight on a looping video? Maybe that would be worth inquiring about at a later time. Either way, there was no time for dilly-dally. He had to send that tweet and inform his audience, before rising to acquire his own clothes by the entrance. Of course, his Twitch stream had already gone up without any audio or video enabled just yet; there was a 'starting soon' banner shown to those who signed in early. Now then, what did he bring along? There was always the outfit he arrived in, but that wouldn't do at all. He did have a grey hoodie to sport, as well as a pair of black shorts for wearing around the hotel late at night. Yes, those things would suffice as something to throw on, disregarding his lack of undergarments at the time.

Ozzy didn't have to do as much to prepare as Nikki did. A slip here, a pull there, and he was ready to go in his most casual attire. Meanwhile though, being the designer extraordinaire that she was, Nikki was putting together a far more coordinated and... dangerous look. Poor Oliver caught a glimpse of the lass from the door, taking immediate pause as he stood there dumbfounded. Naturally, his gaze dropped without hesitation. "You know, it's going to be really hard making myself not look like a sex fiend when you're putting on stuff like that. Don't you know what yoga pants do to blokes?" he asked, trying to alter the direction of his mind to avoid pitching a tent as it were.

[Apollymi]

Ozzy found himself dressed in basically no time, Nikki took a bit longer. But by the time all was said and done, Oliver had set up his stream and made an announcement. Nikki would be in the midst of applying those little red lines on her face by the time the lad passed her door and caught sight of the look she was going for today. He paused in the doorway, only to stop and stare at the lass. "Stuff like this, will make it hard for you to hide being sex fiend?" she asked rhetorically. "Bloody hell, you realize this outfit is lazy right? I'd wear this running to the shops for snacks~" she said with a chuckle. "Besides, yoga pants are comfy, I assume blokes just let their eyes wander, if yoga pants do something to them..." she said with a devious little smirk. "Admittedly I don't mind if it's you..." she finished. By the time she finished talking the lines were drawn, she looked at her face a few extra seconds.

Once upon a time, she'd been advised that light makeup involved hitting the major portions of ones face, eyes, lips, and cheeks. Her cheeks were always taken care of but would she be hitting the other two. Well, she was going for a more relaxed look today so... she wouldn't bother further framing her eyes. Her lashes were full and thick all on their own and simple chapstick would suffice for making sure she didn't appear with chapped lips. Ah, she was done looking at herself in the mirror now and turned to face Ozzy properly. Ah, so that was the look he went with, he looked far more relaxed than she ever did... "I take it then I look reasonable enough for public consumption?"

[Bloodedge]

So, she didn't get it at all. Yes, it was something that could be considered a 'lazy' outfit. Yes, he was sure there was a great deal of comfort to be found in sporting a pair of yoga pants. There was, however, another side to that coin. Those damn things were like a tease of nudity with their tightness, even going far enough to accentuate every curve and crevice to be found on the lower body. "Lazy and made by the goddamn devil," was all he had to say in response to Nikki's claims. She didn't mind his thoughts of debauchery, apparently. Good; there was no way he could not think the way he was doing, given the circumstances. "Well I don't mind if you wanna dress for comfort every day, long as you don't mind that happening again," he said in regards to the very obvious spot on her neck.

She wasn't going to cover that? There was no way she didn't realize it was there; the thing was plain as day! Clearly, she wasn't opposed to it being seen by several thousand people across the world. Well, he did put it there with the thought of it being some sort of trophy. As for whether her look was reasonable for public consumption or not, well... did she even have one that wouldn't fit the bill? "You look like you're ready to turn every head across the continent, so... sort of, yeah," he stated. Right then, moving on before he started something he shouldn't have while the stream was waiting. "I'll go get set up then," the male announced while freeing himself of the trap he nearly jumped right into. Ozzy was back at his laptop in moments, ensuring that his camera and microphone were functioning properly, as per the normal pre-stream ritual for a smooth start. While doing so, he had the craziest idea. "Oy, that's brilliant! How about you go on first and I slip around the corner?"

[Apollymi]

A hearty laugh left Nikki at Ozzy's commentary about her choice in clothing. Unlike many others, she was almost certain he wasn't at all judging the choice, instead he seemed to feel led astray by the fabric which hugged all the curves that Nikki saw on her lower body. "I'm pretty sure they weren't made by the Devil~" she managed finally. Well, at the very least the look seemed to be appreciated so it wasn't a point of concern for Nikki at all. Ozzy went on to claim he was fine with her dressing for this comfort so long as she didn't mind getting a mark like the one on her neck every day. She gave a very casual shrug, "I can't say I mind them at all, Ozzy. Knock yourself out. Do be sure to spread them out though~" she said with just the hint of a teasing flirt right at the edges.

Nikki was a strange lass, but she truly didn't care if anyone saw the mark on her neck or not. Actually, she'd decided to frame it to make a subtle suggestion in the minds of those who saw her. She'd be presented, looking absolutely comfortable in Ozzy's presence bearing just the slightest hint that their relationship was more than friendly and she was fine with that, until... whenever they decided to actually announce it. According to Ozzy she looked as if she was ready to turn every head on the continent. Those purple eyes of hers widened to their prime amount as she managed to look just a little abashed. "Blimey, hold back a little, mate. My poor heart won't survive all this~" she chimed. Moving on he went to set up, then rather suddenly had an idea. Nikki was leaned over the back of the couch watching as the lad worked, only to be told that she should appear when he started up first without him. "Won't your chat freak out if you're not in it though?" She asked as she moved around to settle into the position she figured she'd end up in.

[Bloodedge]

Ozzy could only disagree with the creation of yoga pants being the work of the devil. Well, not completely. Maybe they were constructed instead by some succubus intent on spreading her power and influence across the known world. Oh well; Ozzy could only thank such a creature for bringing its creation to Nikoleta. Perhaps he could do so by doing as Nikki said, and spreading out those marks he seemed fond of placing on her person. Yes, that would suffice quite nicely!

As for how his stream chat would react to seeing Nikki instead of him, she thought about things the wrong way. Well... sort of. They would be freaking out, yes. It would never be a negative thing, however. Everyone who followed Ozzy knew he had the hots for the one called Blue Lotus. They all knew what she looked like, and at least most of them knew they were sharing a convention panel together this week. What would they think when they saw her on his stream, clearly implying they were in the same room outside of the convention itself? He expected an incredible reaction─ the likes of which he couldn't even bring himself to warn the lass about. "Well... sort of, yeah," was all he said while extricating himself from the couch. He'd move around to the other side of the laptop while Nikki took her place, pointing out a specific button on an external control panel attached to the computer. "Hit that one on the stream deck, and everything should start~"

[Apollymi]

Ozzy seemed to have a fair bit of consideration. Nikki could only make the assumption that there would be more of those love bites placed on her person over the course of this week, but she could do nothing but look forward to it as an outcome. Moving right along, it seemed that by Ozzy's own words his chat would indeed freak out if he wasn't on the stream, but he seemed to be perfectly avoiding mentioning anything specific about the potential things she should be looking out for. Nikki in this moment managed to look quite curious as she took her place in front of the laptop and seemed to be pretty deep in thought. "That's bloody dodgy," she said of the lad and his lack of answer. Still, she did fully take on this idea as a thing and so she'd do as Ozzy said and press the button he'd mentioned on the stream deck. She didn't think she'd look bad on camera and even managed to smile as she stared at the screen. "Ello," she said giving the most casual wave she could manage. It was going to be quite strange, she wasn't used to people actively reacting to her... and she wondered what Ozzy's stream would be like in this moment.

[Bloodedge]

Was his lack of answer something dodgy? Yes. Ozzy knew that, but this moment was going to be far too precious to spoil. Ozzy's followers were an interesting bunch. They were wholesome and supportive, and never more so than when it came to his 'lifelong' goal of acquiring Blue Lotus. Hell, some of his members were just as into the idea as he was! There were several images floating around in Ozzy's dedicated Reddit, many of which were edited to place the two of them together. What would happen now?

Well, Nikki pressed the button as instructed. In the meantime, Ozzy was watching her face as she smiled at the camera, waving to over 30,000 viewers who anticipated news of his meeting with the lass. When those thousands of watchers saw Nikoleta instead of the man they were expecting, the stream's chat lagged severely. So many emotes were present, and just as many messages screaming various things. 'OMG' flashed across the chat numerous times. 'THE QUEEN IS HERE' was another frequent message, whenever the lines loaded in new chunks. Additionally, there were hundreds upon hundreds of hearts, as well as a very frequent emote of a male face seeming to express shock and elation simultaneously─ a very popular emote referred to as PogChamp. Ozzy couldn't see any of these things from where he stood, but his face showed the anticipation of a man who knew exactly what was happening regardless. How would Nikki take this greeting, though?

[Apollymi]

The lack of answer was dodgy and beyond that Nikki was now face to face with a strange situation. 30,000 people in chat, what a random huge number. She knew that Ozzy was an exceedingly popular public face but this was extreme. Chat almost died. The lag spike was ridiculous but what was more ridiculous was the look crossing Nikki's face. 'The Queen is here!' that was something she saw in huge chunks. Tons of hearts and expressions of shock and disbelief. Pogchamps, lots of those as well. This huge group of people was apparently just as excited to see Nikki here, as Ozzy had been to meet her the day prior. There was something surprisingly heart-warming about this. Nikki herself seemed to be at a bit of a loss for words. "Blimey," she managed softly managing to look genuinely shocked herself. 'And I thought Ozzy was crazy about me,' she thought as her eyes poured over the screen. The smile on her face became over time a bit more relaxed. Ozzy was quite right, his chat wasn't a scary place, she didn't have to go lurker mode here. It seemed instead that all of these people were way happier to see her here than she thought anyone could be happy to see her. "And I thought Ozzy was happy to see me... I don't think my heart can take it~" she finally managed a whole sentence, but she seemed really happy nonetheless.

[Bloodedge]

Nikki's words and expression told the tale of everything Ozzy had been assuming. He knew his chat was in shock, flying off the proverbial handle as if their favorite sports team won the World Cup or something of the sort. They'd been rooting for him in the 'privacy' of his streams for months upon months, and now, it was almost as if they had a part in this sudden union. Truth be told, at least one of them did have a part to play. Ferrichan was one of many members in the livestream at the time, repeatedly sending the message 'PRAISE ME' to no avail as the rest of the audience continued drowning out all individual messages.

"Look at that," Ozzy said as he rounded the table, coming into view beside Nikki. Flashing the camera the brightest smile he could offer, he positioned his face beside the lass', simultaneously pointing toward her as the viewers looked on in awe. "Look. At. That!" This had been how Ozzy brought attention to Blue Lotus over 24 hours prior. In actuality, it was something he often said to the viewers of his stream─ specifically when Nikki was being observed, her video or picture linked in the chat, etc. The simple truth of the matter was that he'd always been dumbfounded upon seeing her. This wasn't something new, nor was it something that would be changing at any point. "Warm welcomes all around, yeah? I sure hope so~"

[Apollymi]

Nikki's eyes were glued to the stream, so she saw the cries of Ferrichan to be praised. She found this hilarious and thought to question it, but perhaps she would eventually have something to say about it. At the same time, Ozzy was apparently starting his chat properly, making an exclamation of three very simple words. Look at that. Such a simple collection of words, but the rolled from his tongue so smoothly. What was more, he was using this exact phrase to draw attention to... her?! Of course, he was... that was what he was like. "Welcomes' is plenty warm..." she said with a smile on her face. Ah, this man Ozzy was absolutely smitten, she could tell it just by looking at him. In this moment she felt a bit in awe instead. He just came in and spoke like it was a day at the office, business as usual. Even so, that smile on that face, could melt ice caps and bring water to deserts. It probably made the sun shine a night or some other such outlandish thing. Well, as far as Nikki was concerned all of those things were true. Beyond Ozzy's attractiveness, at the very least, her first appearance here, and been met with nothing but positivity. So, she could relax.

Well, that wasn't entirely true. The fact that the chat wasn't completely negative was comforting, but Ozzy's sudden closeness was a lot more relaxing than most things could be. She was way more comfortable with him within touching distance than she'd likely share with anyone.

[Bloodedge]

Well enough as it were, Nikki received the warm welcome he predicted she would. He could always have faith in his chat. For the longest time, he could always assume the overall reaction of that group to any specific thing; they really were like some strange sort of family. Now, that family was heralding in its long-awaited matron. "Fantastic! Always could trust the fam," he commented while seating himself next to Nikki. He wasn't going to be shy at all about the close proximity; no, he'd bask in it as he squeezed himself fully into the camera's line of sight without even urging Nikki to move from its center. "Anywho! Morning, you lot! Guess what?" he greeted, teasing the minds of his chat as always via the typical introduction they'd come to know.

"Got a treat for everyone today. First off, look here!" Once more, he gestured toward Nikki. Yes, that was the first treat. The simple sight of her was a present he took for himself, and offered his followers. They should be pleased, just as he was. "Isn't it brilliant? Now then, second thing! Also this!" Indeed, he was referencing Nikki yet again. This time around however, it wasn't for the same purpose. She was to be the center of attention in this stream, considering it would be her gameplay the viewers were spectating. "I give you... Blue Lotus, the gacha gamer! She's keen to do some pulls in a few Aeons works, I think. So, Blue─ should I call you Blue? Which one are we keen to gamble on first?"

[Apollymi]

He could always trust the fam? That was interesting... Nikki couldn't imagine having a community of such like minded individuals. The technical circle that belonged to her was a bit... dodgy on the best of days. Even so, she hadn't made any sort of announcement on her own about what she was doing here. So far as she knew, those who followed her wouldn't be at all interested in her other activities. Granted she knew that she and Ozzy had at least a few followers in common. Maybe she'd link them later and see how her own followers responded. Yeah, she could do that as part of her wrap up on the con. Whatever the case, he squeezed in pretty close, not trying to get her out of the center of the camera and definitely enjoying the close proximity to her person. And she for her part in this would settle into it, as if she didn't care much about it. They'd been way closer already and she really didn't care to pretend like this wasn't exactly what it was.

Moving on, it seemed Ozzy had a treat for his fans, and it was... Nikki. Her eyes widened as he mentioned this as the first thing he had to say. "Blimey, do I even wanna know how much do you talk about me, that I'm considered a treat just being here?" she asked in teasing most rhetorical fashion. She truly didn't want to know, she spent most of her time in Ozzy's presence surprised by how much he liked her. It wouldn't be surprising to the purple haired lass if he'd spread this among his followers. He went on to explain the actual thing they were here for, which was Nikki doing some pulls on gacha games. He even went on to call her by her well known title. Strangely, it wasn't as if Nikki was an unknown person or anything. She wasn't hiding who she was from people. Blue Lotus was simply the name of her brand and as such was applied to everything she did. "I've told you, you should call me what you like... I'm not too keen either way~" she said, with her general amount of comfort and that large smile plastered on her face. "Oh, to gamble... I uh kinda really want my first extra Ayatsuki. After getting the base one, I feel like her character won't be finished until I have the lollipops. And she'd my favorite, I love her... " she explained seeming to gush happily about her preference in this moment. "Besides, I can't really start this new set of gachas without at least one unit I really love playing with... it'd be rude to my sensibilities," Nikki concluded.

Ah her words reached the ear of a very interested party. One who sat at a desk on an otherwise normal work day. She was done with exams and saw this news. And took it in with a demonic expression. The subtle hints of Blue Lotus were so obvious to one like her... maybe because she understood them. Oh, this pair was about to become something great, she could feel it on her bones. And... her pockets. She flicked her hand over her mouse as she watched the display on her phone, trading stocks the way most people bought items in video games and feeling a light hearted happiness. Of course, her face showed an almost demonic visage instead of that, with a smile that most would consider frightening. But she was all alone it didn't matter that she was giving off vibes of near condensed evil.

[Bloodedge]

"Loads," was his quick rebuttal to explain how frequently he spoke about Nikki. That was about all he could say; there was no simpler or more complex answer to it. All those people at their individual monitors or other screens, had been observing a show for several years, and now they could see the start of a climax in the story of said show. There was no short of excitement on either side of the screen, even though Ozzy retained enough for all 30,000 individuals involved with this meeting. What a season this was going to be.

Nikki said he should refer to her as he liked, apparently not meaning that as something to only apply in a casual setting. Gone would be the formality, then. "Alright then, Nikki it is! And we want..." As he spoke, Ozzy went about loading Nikki's account, planning to deposit a bit of his own currency to start the next character summoning session. "Another Ayatsuki Akiko in Brave Souls! You know the rules, fam. We like a character, we max a character!" he announced. Though he hadn't mentioned a thing, he was quite certain his chat wouldn't allow only the first additional copy of anyone's favorite character. The lot of them always looked out for one another, any time Ozzy happened to be summoning characters on someone else's account for the sake of content. Hell, they even had a common phrase among them as a result─ one Nikki would have heard recently, but had no reason to understand just yet. "Alright, a hundred pound load incoming. Sorry you lot, but we already started rolling a bit. We've got one Ayatsuki, one Kogara, and one Namikaze already. We are on guarantee whenever we hit pity this time, but let's see what the cards have in store, eh?"

[Apollymi]

Loads. What an ambiguous but frightening answer from Ozzy. He was so unabashed in his like of her, that he'd probably spent as much time as he liked her, talking her up to his chat. Nikki in this moment had the nerve to look absolutely flabbergasted. How on earth could he say such a thing with a straight face. She was embarrassed for herself and on his behalf at the same time. "Blimey, I definitely didn't mean for you to answer me..." she said fighting the desire to bury her face in her hands. This man was going to be the absolute end of all of her ego. She really wouldn't survive the idea of this man being so about her that he bragged to a coalition of perfect strangers all over the internet about her.

Moving on, she'd mentioned he could all her what he liked, and found it amusing that he fell from every formality instantly. That was refreshing, she'd meant it exactly the way it was taken. She'd introduced herself to him, as Nikki and she meant to be called that by him. It was always weird when people who actually got to know her were too formal with her, and it felt like an unnecessary boundary. She was happy and then words hit her ear strangely. "Wait. Wait What?! Did you just say max? People actually do that... I've never maxed a single character in one of these in my life. Why?" Ah, it was clear to at least one type of person watching the chat what kind of person, Nikki was outside of this current situation.

That same girl who was watching and trading stocks at the same time heard how aghast the woman was at the idea of maxing a character. So much that she'd never done it herself. But she played gacha games enough to be just a bit familiar. Ah, so she had self-control at least a bit in comparison to Ozzy's amount of freedom. Well, that was fine... a man who spread his money around was more than pleasing to this lass. A woman who cherished her investments and made them with care was equally pleasing. What a power couple! She finished up her stock trading and began engrossing herself properly. She'd be making quite a few donations shortly, but that was fine. Her last act of her work day, as buying over 1000 shares in Blue Lotus' company. She could trust that investment not to go sour and now she could invest herself in watching this couple's first international public appearance.

[Bloodedge]

It was clear that Nikki had no intention of being answered, but that sort of thing was never going to stop Ozzy from letting the truth spill forth. He needed her to know, to understand, that his obsession was unwavering and infallible. So long as she remained in his company, fate would see her ego either solidify over time, or have its reality shattered to be rebuilt from a new and unbreakable material. If it showed any signs of fragility thereafter, it would be reconstructed again and again, until it became the most powerful substance known to man. That wasn't quite Ozzy's goal, but it was a fated side-effect should they continue pursuing one another.

For now though, none of that would matter to the immediate future. Said future had one eventuality: completing the character Nikki claimed to favor. This matter seemed to be in question, specifically from the lass herself due to a lack of understanding. That was fine; she would come to learn the ways soon enough. "I did say max!" he specified while leaning away from the laptop, leaving Nikki to her summon session. "We don't take Ls on this channel, right lads? If you've got a favorite in here, you're gonna have it as good as it can be. And... we don't lose the 50/50 here! We go again!"

[Apollymi]

Ozzy was absolutely terrible for Nikki's sense of self, but in the best possible way. She'd gotten used to being understood in a certain way and appreciated in a very specific way. But every time, Ozzy spoke of her, he did so in a way she'd never heard before. She felt herself grow absolutely sheepish, but wondered every time, if maybe she wasn't actually giving herself enough credit. Time would tell how this would go on to affect her, how much more confident could she actually become while dealing with this man? Regardless Ozzy's answer to her inquiry was outrageous. His claim was that a favorite character was always maxed and given at his highest potential to those who wanted it. Was he really that kind of person? Not only non-toxic with a community with zero toxicity but also... just nice about everything. "You really would say something like that..." she said no longer resisting palming her own face. They don't lose 50/50 huh? They go again? He'd said that before... was it preparation. "Well, I'm already in for it..." she said seeing that he'd already given her a boost in spendable currency. "Alright..." she said pressing the button to begin the pulls. It hadn't been too long since she got Kogara. On screen he was listed with only nine after him. "Nine pity..." she said pressing the button only to have her eyes widen immediately. "No way!" it was gold, she looked to Ozzy with pure surprise sparkling in those purple eyes of hers. How on earth was it actually gold? Her luck had already been good, it was supposed to be routine for her to do this and have to press this button numerous times. Ah, but the excitement of wasn't tainted at all. "That's so early." She said most astounded by this current upsurge of good luck.

[Bloodedge]

And so, the summoning began anew, with what had quickly become over 40,000 viewers watching. The chat's shock at Nikki's appearance was unending as new watchers continued to discover her being part of the stream. Those who'd been watching all along, however, were fully immersed in the gacha experience as always. Cheers of good luck were aplenty, and lo, the golden glow of a five-star character appeared in a single summon of ten units! "Pog!" Ozzy shouted. No excitement was spared as the lad nearly hopped up, reaching out to take Nikki by the upper arms while his eyes were locked on the screen. "All those top-notch units, and an early Akiko to top it off! What did I tell you? We don't lose on this channel!" he said just as excitedly as his actions portrayed. Apparently, he was at least comfortable enough around Nikki now to do such things publicly as well. Of course, it may have also been some subconscious effort to lay claim in a way. Yes, both Nikki and the general public needed to know that he was far from backing away now. His path was set, and he'd continue along it even during casual moments such as the present. "That's a guarantee as well. Five left; hopefully they can all come home early. How's it, Nikki; feeling good yet?" he asked as his eyes shifted toward the lass.

[Apollymi]

10,000 more people were now watching as well. Excitement in the chat was literally palpable and Nikki found that kind of environment oddly fun. Maybe it was simply the matter of it being so very wholesome? Normally the idea of having that many eyes on her would make her shy away quite a bit. She'd become more confident in herself but not to the point of wanting to be the center of attention. Right now she didn't feel like a spectacle she felt like a normal person, having a chat with a large friend group about her hobbies and life. Like she was just catching up, instead of meeting everyone for the very first time.

It was Ozzy. That man was absolutely infectious and he'd gotten to his entire chat and Nikki herself. She didn't mind his small outward showings of claiming her, nor the personal contact. In fact, she was showing off that mark on her neck as such an act as well. Bearing that in mind, his excitement even over the pulls was shocking. "Yeah, I'm starting to see that... good on you lot, sharing all this luck with me~" she said sheepishly. Nikki knew her own luck was never this good, it had to be the chat and its positive vibes and Ozzy further influencing it. As for how she was feeling Nikki gave it a bit of thought... "I'm pretty excited actually... and having a great time of it. You're definitely to blame for that..." she said to Ozzy flashing him a bright smile. "Oh and you lot too~" she said of the chat in general, wouldn't want anyone feeling left out. With that, she'd begin rolling again, trying to get to the next golden light, all but high off the buzz provided by the chat and proximity to Ozzy.

Cuteness overload was something that was being experienced in that office space. Somewhere a girl was squealing with delight. This couple was too cute. She needed to bear witness to it always. Besides all of that, Nikoleta Corbyn was exactly as she was hyped up to be, nice, cute, gracious a bit shy, she was perfect for Ozzy by this particular fan's logic. Much like people who shipped characters in anime and manga, this lass had shipped those two people since the moment of seeing them separately. Seeing them together... and seeing how much extra they brought to each other, gave her an intense sense of joy. Oh, but what was this? There was also the increasing viewership. In addition to being an absolutely perfect power couple, they were attractive public figures. Another purchase of 500 shares was made, she was almost certain this would be the most profitable investment of her recent months.

[Bloodedge]

Nikoleta was almost custom-made for a streamer's camera; Ozzy figured as much. Even with the reprehensions she shared earlier, she was seamlessly interacting with an unknown audience of no small size at all, never failing to leave them included despite seemingly being more adjusted to recordings as opposed to live video. She had to be given a great deal of credit for performance in this case. "Oy, careful giving this group too much clout. Look at 'em!" he said, pointing at the screen and using his forefinger to gesture toward the rolling chat in particular. "Scammers, bozos, bonobos and baboons, the lot of them! You can't trust them, I'm tellin' ya!" In spite of the words leaving his mouth, the viewers seemed to fully understand Ozzy's playful nature. Some sent numerous hearts in response, others fully embodied their given titles by sending various primate emotes and trolling images. Others, however, were finally becoming privy to a certain feature clearly visible on Nikoleta herself.

'WHAT IS THAT' was becoming a frequent message. Some others to follow consisted of only a pair of wide eyes offering a sideways glance. Ah, the masses were finally taking note of events prior to the stream. Minds were racing all over the world, and Ozzy basked in the collective consciousness' speculation. Regardless, the summoning session continued without a hitch. Ozzy settled into his place after releasing Nikki's arms, though taking up a more lax position left one of his own arms slung over her shoulder. If the viewers had their speculations, he would only be fueling the minds without bothering to interrupt the current content via another topic. They would know for certain eventually; things could take their natural course.

[Apollymi]

Nikoleta never considered streaming for one major reason, she didn't want to be the sole focus of a large group of people. Such a thing made her terribly uncomfortable and given how the comments on her Channel and Twitter went she didn't want to be too involved with real-time reactions from people. This group was a bit different. In this exact moment, she could feel absolutely comfortable and as such she had no problem with chatting up these people nor Ozzy himself. Speaking of, Oliver Williams was a delightfully playful man, so much so... even in this form that he was passing as quite an interesting individual. She shouldn't trust them? A bunch of primates and scammers, this lot were? "Bloody hell, those nicknames are terrible... " she mused only to see the rolling chat full of positive reinforcement of these horrible names. "Oh... I see, well whatever suits ya'~" she encouraged the lot, as she always would. Ah, but there was the others thing circulating. Lots of eyes and questions, what were they curious about? A devious little smirk appeared on the face of Nikoleta. She'd not had a real-time reaction set for the kinds of things she hid in her videos before. Now, it seemed that beyond being excited just to see her, the chat was moving towards having some understanding of the relationship developing between this pair. Before she could comment though, at 10-pull number 7, a golden light appeared on her screen and she released the mouse for a second. "My heart can't take it... is it bad? Is it pog?" she'd covered her eyes with her hands and was peeking through. Waiting for the reveal with her heart thumping in her chest.

At the same time, those eyes traveling through the chat along with the questions made the girl in the office scoff. She typed a single sentence with all the seriousness she usually possessed, but strangely her face had a smile on it. "You guys are so late." was the first message. No emojis or anything of the sort, but she was mostly at home in the chat, most knew she was simply this way. Of course, she'd seen the mark soon after the lass was revealed. Her brain had already told her, the continued closeness of the pair sold it. The Queen was here, she was showing up to claim her throne, and said throne couldn't be more pleased to be there. This was great, so fulfilling, so freaking wholesome. If this was really happening this girl had hopes for her own future, a gaming couple, proper... full of cute and wholesome moments. Two equivalent nerd existences... maybe she could even have one eventually. Until then though, she fully planned to live vicariously through this older pair... they were her new role-models.

[Bloodedge]

Indeed, they were some terrible names, but they were always meant to be. Ozzy had nothing truly negative to say about his viewers, and they all knew it by now. Either way, what was a bit of fun amongst such a friendly group? Nikki seemed content to move on with some understanding of the exchange here, which only spoke to how easily she was adjusting to it all. What she couldn't adjust to, was the miniature anxiety attack from finally seeing that golden glow after seventy summons. "Bloody hell, all the way into soft pity," Ozzy commented.

Nikki's hand abandoned the mouse while she had her little freak-out. As a result, Ozzy was prepared to click through the list of ten summons. Doing so resulted in him almost accidentally clicking past the five-star summon, which he realized was the desired character appearing as the first of ten pulls. "Oh yes! Astronomical dub!" he exclaimed. "Akiko number three guys! This is gonna be big. Where were you, chat? Where were you when we said no to the other side of 50/50?" These questions came as he clicked away subconsciously, only as a matter of habit when already having his hand on the mouse. One, too, three, and then... only four single units later, there was another golden backdrop with the silhouette of Ayatsuki Akiko laid over it once again! Was that just as exciting? Well. . . "WHERE WERE YOU WHEN WE GOT THE BACK-TO-BACK?! BELIEVERS, RISE UP!" Suddenly, the most prominent message appearing across chat was 'I WAS HERE' with a few other excited utterances littered throughout.

[Apollymi]

All the way to soft pity was indeed normal luck for Nikki, even so it wasn't that bad. She had the chat and Ozzy to keep her company, and Ozzy to take over while she panicked about what was on her screen. Soon enough though, she was able to relax more completely, it was a dub, she'd won the fifty/fifty. That was encouraging. She lowered her hands from her eyes, as Ozzy clicked away. "I'm never gonna get over this, it wrecks my nerves every time..." she mused knowing that was how it was going to work. Four more clicks and another silhouette appeared and she recognized it from the cat-tail which appeared there. "WHAAAAAAAA!~" Nikki was just as excited as Ozzy was about this second Akiko in a single pull. Nikki as a reflex had squeezed Ozzy's torso burying her face in his sweatshirt. It was so lucky. Four of them of the max number she needed, how could she be anyone but pleased. And then there was Ozzy the eternal hype-man. He got the chat going again, with words so strange but so fitting for this exact time. She watched from her current position, his shared excitement with light in her eyes. Yeah, she could definitely get used to being around this man. Genuine emotions were so hard to come by, and here he was just being an absolute crazed individual but keeping everyone else happy around as well.

Ah, and as this happened the girl in the office almost died. That was reciprocation. She loved to see it. "I was here." That was typed among the chat and something else. A donation would come through this one tagged a very specific way, from the lass known as MisakiNeesan. It was tagged as "A tribute to the Queen." She couldn't help it as for the amount, in her own currency it was roughly 110,000 yen, which was more than enough to round out any summon session, especially given only 3 more copies of the character were now needed. Ah, but that was fine though she was having a good time. And she could trust in this pair quite a bit and looked forward to what they made of themselves.

[Bloodedge]

At no point had this session been anything resembling average. Even though Nikki wasn't winning every 50/50 for the desired character, nor one of the other preferred units on her list, she'd gotten some of the most sought-after characters in the game. She also now had most of the necessary copies to make her chosen unit as good as possible, and now, there were two in one multi-summon. Better yet was the reaction that came as a result. Suddenly, Nikki's face was pressed into his torso while her arms wrapped around it. To put it simply, this was without a doubt the best part of the summoning session. Even an upcoming surprise wouldn't really compare, though the shock value alone may have begged to differ.

Most of the money Ozzy loaded her account with had been burnt through, but suddenly, there was a donation far greater than what would be needed for the other three. Even if Nikki summoned all the way to a hundred every time, and failed every 50/50 along the way... that was over 700 pounds when translated during the donation. "Bloody hell, you again?" Ozzy questioned upon viewing the screen. MisakiNeesan was not a name he would forget any time soon; she'd been the one responsible for the biggest donation his charity had ever seen. "That's huge! What sort of job do you have in Japan that you can do that and the donation yesterday? You know... don't answer. MisakiNeesan the G.O.A.T. is back in the building lads! You know what that means~" With that said, he pulled fully away from the screen, but not from Nikki. These were her summons to make, but he wouldn't have minded if she remained in position for the rest of time while letting 40,000 people (and still rising) watch them just sit there.

[Apollymi]

This session was indeed the best, oh... right. Nikki had her face squeezed into Ozzy's torso. She was enjoying herself there just a bit too much, there was a certain warmth she always felt from the lad. Surely no one could blame her for this extended hug she was doing. Yeah, she'd just take a minute or two to enjoy it. Whatever the case apparently the name MisakiNeesan appeared on screen with a donation. Nikki finally turned her head and read the donation with a raised brow. "MisakiNeesan? That name appeared on my Twitter yesterday... she won some limited editions..." mumbled Nikki. Small world or maybe not? It was very likely the lass had come from Ozzy's chat to her Youtube channel.

A chuckle in that office. Her job? Huh... she felt the desire to troll just a bit, so she'd have a bit of fun. "I'm a high school student." she wrote back, happy to help get the Queen the pulls she wanted. "I F2P this game. I am living vicariously through other people's pulls. For the Queen~" she wrote seemingly happy. Now there was more for pulls, and Nikki was forced to pull herself away from Ozzy just a tad, she settled herself back in front of the camera with a large smile plastered on her face. "Blimey, do I even wanna know?" she asked softly as she replaced her hand on the mouse and began to click away on ten pulls once again. Technically, Nikki fully understood how a teenage girl could have that much expendable income, after all, her sister had enough as a teen to take care of a small child and put her through college. Oh, she wouldn't have nearly the fast pulls left in her, but perhaps she had a bit of luck yet? All while the still rising number of people watched her pull on this gacha game she'd decided to play.

[Bloodedge]

"No surprise there," Ozzy said regarding the appearance of MisakiNeesan in her giveaway. There were quite a few lurkers and regulars alike in his community, who happened to also follow Blue Lotus as a channel. As rich as this girl apparently was, though, he was surprised to see her entering a giveaway herself. Didn't those types normally have others to go get things for them? Oh well; he was far more satisfied to see real people as part of his community, doing 'real people' things. What did MisakiNeesan have to say about her career, and how she had so much expendable income? She was a high school student. Oh, alright.

...

"You're a fucking WHAT?!" Surely this person was just being a troll; it was a common enough occurrence in his chat. While Nikki continued rolling, Ozzy kept his eyes on the chatbox and kept up interactions. Eventually, he even overcame the shock of hearing that a high school student had millions of pounds to toss at a charity in the UK. "Good one, mate," he said, his spirits high from what he assumed was a very good joke. As for Nikki's question, it was certainly worth an answer; someone else had to know how ridiculous this sort of spending was. "This one decided to blow over seven figures on my charity right before con yesterday. Six and a half mil, I think it was. I never thought I'd see a donation over a few grand, and even that would've been ridiculous!"

Moving on though, there was something Ozzy saw with reasonable frequency in the chat box. No one on the other end could hear the game itself, as per a difference in settings between his devices. "Ah, god damnit! Sorry guys, I forgot about volume!" he announced. A few clicks of a button on his stream deck, and things would be adjusted. It wasn't as perfect as his desktop, but he got close enough to a reasonable amount of background coming from the game's music. Now, all future five-star characters would be offering a voiced line while their silhouettes manifested on screen. What would the next one be, though? Well, all of 81 summons after the previous Akiko, there would be a male voice emerging after that golden glow.

"H'oh? I guess there's no reason to hold anything back. Bankai. Itsuwatte... Mugenteki Shintoku."

[Apollymi]

Apparently it wasn't a surprise that MisakiNeesan had ended up with a pair of limited editions. She was one of a few lurkers who was solidly a part of the fandoms of both of these people. She was getting to see them come together as a bit of a dream. Actually, she'd wished him luck on these exact things, while he offered her good luck on her exams the previous day. As such it was only more hilarious that he somehow thought she was joking about being a high school student. She wasn't of course, which made it more of a proper troll. There was the truth mixed in with the outlandishness of her actions. 'That was worthwhile just for the reaction.' She explained. 'It's funny that you think I'm joking though... My exams went fine, by the way. I'm feeling pretty good about them.' Oh yes, any who'd been in chat previously would know that was what she was talking about previously. Extensive trolling or rather telling the truth and it just being unbelievable. Whichever made him feel better.

Ozzy shared with Nikki the amount of the donation previously given by the one known as MisakiNeesan and her eyes widened. Even when being over indulgent she never would have imagined someone spending that kind of money on a charity in a different country. "Bloody hell, that's more than ridiculous..." Nikki added in. "Still, it's a really great cause, so maybe she was moved." Nikki was sure to see the bright side more often than not. While they talked, Nikki almost forgot she was pressing away. Of course, Ozzy went on to add volume to per the chats demands and upon seeing that golden light she heard a voice she found unmistakable. She'd obviously lost the 50/50 but that was fine. No, because what she gained in this moment was something she actually wanted. "SQUEEEE!!~ I got Raizen. I got bloody Raizen!!!~" she was way too happy about this. Perhaps she wanted that unit a bit more than she let on. Still, her luck in pulls on this account was through the roof.

[Bloodedge]

Wait... Misaki's exams were never a reference to college courses? She wasn't someone at least as old as himself, working on a Master's Degree or PHD? People in Japan had to be made of something different for a teenage girl to be so absolutely loaded. Ozzy had gone from amused, to awestruck over the course of a few moments. "You're really serious, aren't you? I really hope that's legal cash, but I'm not prying. Cheers to you again Misa, and congrats on having a good go at those exams!" He was chipper as always, albeit completely blown away by the thought that there were child millionaires walking around in Japanese high schools.

Ah, a distraction from all that thinking would be lovely. It just so happened that one was on its way after he adjusted the game volume, and it came in the form of a male character's voice. Nikki's excitement was both visible and audible before the silhouette even appeared, and it was no wonder why. That voice belonged to one of the most sought-after characters in the game's history, and one of the top fan-favorites of the entire series. Of course, it was also regarded as one of the most unfair units in the game, but that wasn't a matter of importance. Nikki did seem exceedingly excited though─ obviously implying that this was a win in her book regardless. "That might just be the biggest dub in this game. Seriously, the rates on getting a Raizen are abysmal! Astronomical dub, no question about it! And, that puts us on guarantee for the next one. I guess at this point we're just looking to see how much money is left in this account by the end, and what sort of characters we get along the way, eh Nik?"

[Apollymi]

Ah, yes, it was definitely sinking in. The girl behind that username could do nothing but find this man's reactions funny. It was in fact one of the main reasons she found herself watching his streams. Well aside from his no nonsense attitudes about people playing as they wished and not being meta slaves. When one added to that the absolute wholesomeness of his obsession with Nikki, she found herself fully tied into his antics, even as the lurker that she was. 'I'm always serious.' these were the words of MisakiNeesan, of course, that wasn't entirely true. She wasn't always serious, she was actually the least serious in a moment like this, but she found his reactions funny nonetheless. 'No need to worry, I am a law-abiding young citizen. Besides there are better ways to launder money than giving it away...' Yeah, she was a bit of a troll, but that was just her nature. She was also 100 percent correct. There were better ways of getting rid of illicit funds than giving it away. 'Wait, that last bit was actually a joke. I've been playing too much GTA. Also congrats to you...'

Ah, but Nikki was well and truly excited over Raizen. And so apparently was Ozzy. Though his conversation with Misaki hadn't gone unnoticed. What a strange girl that popped up in his chat. She did seem about the rich benefactor type going by what she said. According to Ozzy though the rates on Raizen were really low, which made it even more exciting for Nikki. "Yes. Definitely winning here. Actually, that even makes up for that earlier streak of weird luck..." she mentioned. She really had a couple of issues with the other characters she'd gotten but she was willing to set them aside a bit. A small break would be taken for her to move Raizen into a team composition with Benihime for reasons which were obvious to everyone. And right back to summoning. "Hm, characters left to get would be interesting... there are only a couple more I would even really want. Getting Raizen kind of threw me, I figured I'd be waiting on a banner for him. It feels almost greedy to even want anything else after all of that~" she stated honestly as she began rolling once more that happy little smile on her face. At a pleasant slightly early 64 another Gold Light appeared and she received that next Akiko. It was exciting but only just a little. And another 10 pull would follow without much event... only to give way to an early gold on the second 10 pull, and her anxiety resurfaced, with a vengeance. "No..."

[Bloodedge]

MisakiNeesan was always serious. Alright, he could take a mental note of that for future reference. If ever again his mind was to be blown by this one, he wouldn't bother going through the extra hoops just to reach the proper reaction at the end. "Quite right. Perfectly normal, law-abiding teenager with a few million quid to toss about in another country over the internet." Given the information thus far, Ozzy didn't even bat an eye when Misaki spoke of laundering money. At this point, it wasn't even worth the surprise... but ah, she was actually joking with that one, throwing fault to Grand Theft Auto for the illegal actions jest. "Fair enough mate, GTA gets in your head easy. Say, it's been a while since I played that. I might open up a server whenever I get back round to it," he said. With that, he received the congratulatory message from Misaki, knowing exactly what it was for. "Oy, save that bit for later. I'm not even where I plan on getting yet."

Nikki was over her strange streak with the latest character summon, apparently. That was good, but they weren't quite done yet. More summons would follow, and the next copy of Ayatsuki Akiko appeared in similar range to the previous two. It was business as usual by this point, but within twenty of this copy, the golden glow appeared on screen yet again. Would it be another copy of Akiko already? The answer was...

"I already cut you once, remember? This match was over way back then," spoke another male voice through the game. Ah, it was another copy, but not of Akiko. This was the second copy of Namikaze Minato to appear, obviously much to Nikki's chagrin. What would Ozzy do in response to this? Things seemed a bit awkward for a moment, but then... "Unlucky!" he exclaimed. "Welp, it could have been anyone else, but the gacha gods say no. That's alright; we go again!"

[Apollymi]

'Exactly, I'm glad you understand.' Misaki's words were indeed some strange ones. But she was a bit of a troll while being a multi-millionaire and a young teen. Whatever the case, it seemed he understood her jest about Grand Theft Auto and claimed that as a game it got into one's head. He had no idea the truth of that when it came to someone like her. It was truly hard to get out of bad habits in that game. Ah but what was this, a glimmer of hope on the horizon, as Ozzy spoke of potentially opening up a server. 'Good you should do that... a server run by you wouldn't be nearly as sketchy as the one I am in right now.' mentioned knowing it was an absolute statement of fact. But moreover he didn't want congratulatory statements yet as he wasn't where he wanted to be, well it was time for a tiny bit of trolling. 'Oh? Well, I'm not taking it back. You're out here winning for us weird ones. You can't crush, a young girl's hopes and dreams.' Nikki saw this exchange and laughed. This girl was a troll and half, while also being clever. Such a thought made her believe this girl was really just a rich, bored teen. She had all the earmarks of one.

Ah but the sound of the voice coming from the pull was also one she recognized. And she was shocked. Of all the things she could end up with, a repeated of a non-banner character was a bit ridiculous. Normally such a thing would be considered lucky, but what would she want with two copies of Namikaze Minato. Ah, and then the pause and the chime of unlucky, she cut her eyes at Ozzy, but didn't manage to keep even playful anger for very long. "Bloody hell, the game is rude. 13 Divisions and a get a dup... I'd pout if I didn't already have Raizen," she said still seeming playfully cross. Oh well. According to Ozzy when the Gacha Gods say no, you go again. "That advice is mad..." she said with a nudge but still she clicked away again. It would be 8 ten pulls before the next golden light. The luck was running dry, still she was having a good time with it, there was nothing wrong with just enjoying the atmosphere.

[Bloodedge]

"Having trouble with the griefers, huh? Same here. I'm out here trying to sell cars, having them blown up by the next Air Gear project!" Ozzy ranted, having his own fair share of bad experiences with that damn game. If nothing else, that was the reason for his server idea. "That's exactly why I wanna do the server. We get a bunch of us together, and we keep all the bozos out. Not you bozos, but... you know, the cunts basically~" Plain and simple, Ozzy thoroughly enjoyed the game they spoke of, but it was one of many titles which was ruined by its own toxic fanbase. He'd always fancied the idea of a good roleplay server, however; maybe his followers would enjoy such a thing. "You'll get first invite if I ever get around to it, since you've been such a good sport on the channel. Mods, can we get a poll going for a GTA server's hype? Apparently I've got to make up for crushing Misaki's hopes and dreams~"

Of all the characters Nikki could have pulled, it was a bit anticlimactic that she got an off-banner repeat. Alas, it wasn't all bad. "I mean... if you look at it the right way, that's a dub too! He's got Shunkou now," he said, to which the chat began a hype train of emotes featuring oxygen masks. He very well couldn't let that stand. "No guys, that's not copium! It's not copium, I promise! Listen, Shunkou is good for him, guys─ that's a dub! Guys, somebody tell everybody else that's not copium at all." Naturally, no one believed him; he doubted Nikki would either. Of all the upgrades to get, that one was about the most useless when considering what the character in question could do in his natural state. "Anyway, still rolling. Are we going early?" Ozzy would continue speaking, but it wouldn't exactly be an early summon this time around. Some 80 summons later, there it was. "Oooh, here we go guys! Let's hear it," he spoke, as if to brush past that little ordeal with the previous character.

[Apollymi]

'Always.' Misaki had a bit of a problem with griefers in general. 'Though there is an okay group now... it always seems like its just on the verge of falling apart.' She added. It seemed that Ozzy could commiserate, at least a little. According to him, he was tired of Air Gear projects, a laugh would follow that girl in the office. 'Oppressors are quite problematic. Admittedly, I am just trying to live my Gang-Star life and play a little co-op. And be a big crime boss like JoJo. So I'll appreciate the invite if it pops up.' Her own sentences made it obvious what her interests were, but this spot was one of few full of like minded people. This outward personification of her could share a little. Ah, but there was another problem.

Apparently the whole of chat thought that the secondary Minato wasn't very good. And claimed that Ozzy was dishing out copium trying to sell it as if it was good. "Blimey, it's implied that Shunkou is based on his Bankai. So he gets a baby version of his Bankai before Bankai? Who made this choice?" these were the words of Nikki. "Chat's right, seeming like copium to me," she said while still pulling. Well none too strangely it would be Misaki herself who understood the proper uses of that particular character. 'He's a bit better than that. Shunkou runs on stamina. As a former member of the Onmitsukidou, he has a lot of stamina. So, if you unlock him with Bankai and he has that, he becomes a god at Co-Op Boss Raids. He gets infinite uptime on high power attacks. I definitely wouldn't complain if one popped up as a DPS in a Raid with me.' Misaki added before the next Akiko popped up.

"Science! Way more important than a date~"

Ah, all was well in the world. There was only one left and she could or rather should be able to get it with relative ease. "One more now..." she said looking up with strange light in her eyes. Misaki's advice had been about the usefulness of Minato in a cooperative situation. She could at least see the usefulness of that, with Ozzy around to play with at least. "Alright, maybe not all copium. I'd still rather not. I don't even dislike him or anything... but how in 13 whole divisions did I get him twice?"Oh little did she know what was coming at the end of another 8 ten-pulls.

[Bloodedge]

Ozzy understood exactly what Misaki was trying to say. It was nigh impossible to find a consistent group of gamers in that particular game's atmosphere─ at least none who were both consistent and relaxed. He would happily start a server just to create a positive atmosphere for players to enjoy their experience without grief, though he would first be tending to... other things in life. "Everything's a damn JoJo reference, innit? You'll have that GangStar life if my name ain't Olive Oil, Misaki! Just give me time to loop back around to that game, yeah?"

Perhaps eventually, Nikki would have another solid streak of good fortune. Maybe on the next game, even. At least for now, she had some solid units going, even the second Minato whom no one believed was a worthwhile addition. Well... he couldn't say no one. Misaki seemed to agree with his claims about the character's unlocked abilities, even going into detail about why he became such a good unit with an otherwise unnecessary added skill. "See? Misaki's got my back about it not being copium! It ain't me who don't know; it's y'all who don't know!" Ozzy exuded smugness in a singular, bright moment of agreement with the one called MisakiNeesan. She was going to become his next moderator at this rate, even if he didn't consider the ridiculous amount of money she donated to charities and Nikki's summoning. Nikki did have a point, though; it was incredibly unlucky for her to get the same off-banner Captain twice when there were so many others she'd never seen. Even worse, though...

"I already cut you once, remember? This match was over way back then."

Thrice. Not only did Nikki receive this Captain a second time, but a third time just after the following guarantee. Unlucky for her, lucky for anyone whose game she joined when deciding to play him. Alas, Ozzy couldn't restrain himself from a single whispered word. "Oh, unlucky," he murmured before his voice rose to normal levels again. "Just one more to go, and a guarantee. Looks like you'll have a lot left over on this account after all!"

[Apollymi]

'Having someone recognize them for what they are is great... I make them all the time and no one gets it.' Misaki said about JoJo references. Of course, Ozzy went on to claim that whenever he managed to get back around to GTA he'd be sure to get her the GangStar life she wanted. A wicked little smile crossed this lass' face. 'Hai hai,' she agreed to wait until it popped back up. If she could play on a God-King server she could have a great time. Ozzy and his community were absolutely great like that, which is why she enjoyed his streams so much.

At the next golden light Nikki was confronted by the same voice line she'd now heard more times than most people in this game would have heard while this man was not on banner. "Bloody hell, what is my luck?!" she exclaimed. She held back the swears properly but felt like they flashed in her eyes as she clicked through the list. Of course, Ozzy went on to mention that she was unlucky. She was experiencing the full spectrum of whale life and right now she was cursing herself and trying to cope with her 'horrendous' luck. "Look, it's fine. I got Raizen. I can make my couple team so like I'm all good. I'm not even mad anymore..." Nikki finally managed, bargaining with her own psyche now that she was over the anxiety of it. But in truth she was pouting. How did she end up with three copies of a five-star character she didn't want? Oh well, that strange luck of hers was about to show itself again. As she pressed the button once more and immediately she heard the sound of another voice line and a golden light.

"Science! Way more important than a date~"

The number of clicks required to reach this one, added up to thirteen since the last five star. "Fine. Fine.... don't push me like crazy and let me feel better about getting the same guy three bloody times." She had a huge smile on her face even while saying those words. Why? Because she was absolutely excited.

[Bloodedge]

"Really? You lot have it backwards then; it's all over the place in the Western world," Ozzy offered as a very factual statement. Anything and everything could, and would, be referred to as a 'JoJo reference' to even those who didn't know what 'JoJo' was. It was something of an epidemic in recent years, actually, since the release of a certain arc of the anime. Weebs were weird but incredible, thought one such as Ozzy.

Also weird but incredible in some eyes, would be the third copy of the 13th Division's Captain. That one, he definitely couldn't even pretend was bad... though the situation of having so many of one unwanted character was always annoying to the player. "Well! Going from Shunkou, that one gets him a Kidou combo. He's pretty all-purpose now with that added range and CC. Though... you do have Raizen now─" Alright, so maybe the third Minato wasn't so good after all. Fast clears of game content were one matter Minato had covered, but it didn't get more 'all-purpose' than the one called Kumori Raizen, among a select few other characters. Luckily though, it didn't take very long at all for the final, guaranteed Akiko to appear─ Ozzy didn't even have the time to say more about the third Minato. If nothing else, Nikki seemed pleased overall. Ozzy wondered if it was the random copies of Raizen and the duplicates of various four-star characters, or perhaps the top-tier Akiko she now had. "Well guys, I'm going to call it an overall astronomical dub. What says the player?" he asked, looking toward Nikki whose shoulder still casually acted as a hanger for his arm.

[Apollymi]

Ah, JoJo references were more popular in the west, that made sense she supposed. It was pretty popular over there. Whatever the case, the girl know as MisakiNeesan would have no problem slipping back into quiet obscurity as the session of summoning on this game came to an end. Ozzy wasn't even partway through his speech on the newest unlock belonging to Namikaze Minato before her last Akiko came through. Of course, such a thing as near unfathomable to her, but she wasn't at all upset about it. When he finished up, he claimed the entire thing was an astronomical dub and the still smiling Nikki while rearranging her characters could only agree. "I say I'm happy. I got my favorite couple. My favorite character and someone who'll no doubt grow on me," she said with a cheeky little smirk. "I also maxed a character so I get to see what that is gonna be like. Oh and I got to hang out with everyone here so that was extra fun... no regrets," she said. She knew how gachas worked after all. She had nothing but time to pick up her other favorite characters and put together a team she'd find most aesthetically pleasing. Until then, she could happily play her current team of characters, skipping over Kogara for a while at least because she actually wanted to have fun with the gameplay. Ah, but there was another thing, Ozzy was still slung over her shoulders all casually and Nikki for her part didn't seem to mind it at all... no she was enjoying the closeness and wiggled herself in a bit more.

[Bloodedge]

With the final say of Nikki herself, it could be said that every click of the mouse had been worthwhile indeed. She had her favorite character, and some others suitable for trying out in different teams. From what he'd seen, she also had a very solid four-star lineup, which was also good for fleshing out a team with at least a solid supporting cast. "Brilliant! Once you're satisfied with your setup, we should co-op. I've been dying for a constant partner since they enabled group play. Maybe you'd even fancy letting two members of the fam at a time in every now and then?" Once again, Ozzy's plans for the future were very, very pointed in a specific direction. With Nikki settling into his side more firmly, he wondered if it was in good taste to even stay on stream. He could abandon the viewers and spend the rest of his day in privacy like this, right? Well, that wouldn't be the best option as an automatic choice. "What now then? This account's got a lot left for future banners. Could have a go, could switch to something else, or even hop off completely. What tickles your fancy then, Nikki?"

[Apollymi]

Ah, yes... they seemed to be wrapping up quite nicely. Actually, she didn't mind this whole streaming experience on the whole, and definitely wouldn't have minded continuing to chat with everyone and hang out, but there was one thing she would be remembering very soon. "Of course, after everyone is sorted I wouldn't mind playing at all. It's about as hard to find a good co-op group as it is to find a good cosplay group..." she said with a bit of optimism. Yeah, she could definitely see herself enjoying some extended game time with Ozzy, as for what they should do next. There were a couple of options. "Well, I want to get this set sorted before I roll anymore. Besides there are some other characters I'd rather wait on for a while..." she mentioned. "As for what tickles my fancy..." Oh, yeah... she should probably just say something soft. While seeming to think it over her body decided for her what was next. "Right, I only had chips yesterday. Definitely my fault I haven't had breakfast either... I should probably eat something..." she mentioned while tapping her two index fingers together with the nerve to look absolutely abashed. Besides actually wanting to eat, it was a nice excuse to break and go back to just relaxing for while. She wouldn't mind a few more stream pop-ups a bit later though.

[Bloodedge]

"Can't say you're wrong there. Once you've got one though, the fun factor shoots through the bloody roof," he claimed, having nothing more truthful to say about the experience. Now then, what would Nikki's intentions be henceforth? Any and every option was a viable one. What she said after clarifying her interest in playing cooperatively at a later time, actually reminded Ozzy of one important thing they'd glanced over earlier: breakfast. "Oh, right! I'm a bit famished myself, now that you mention it. Right then, short stream today guys, sorry. Gotta get the day started with a bit of brekkie. Make sure you keep tabs on Twitter; I might find time for a few updates later in the day. Oh, and don't forget about the charity linked in my biography. We're on the way to making a huge impact after yesterday, but don't let that stop us making a bigger one, eh? Follow the lovely Blue Lotus while you're at it."

Truth be told, Ozzy didn't at all mind abandoning the stream. He'd mostly started it for the sake of getting Nikki adjusted to the idea that it was a fun place to be, and she did seem to be having a decent time at least. "Off we pop then! Thank you so much for watching guys, and have a wonderful, wonderful day! Buh-bye~" he offered as his usual outro, altering a more typical two-finger salute with a bit of rotation applied to his wrist as those fingers moved closer to the camera. He'd leave a few additional moments afterwards, just in case Nikki wanted to offer an outro of her own as well. Ultimately though, he would be ending the stream within a matter of moments.

[Apollymi]

A smile spread across Nikki's face. He was quite right, the fun of group activities wasn't one that could be properly overlooked. Actually their time on the panel had been fun yesterday, obvious flirting as an aside simply because they both managed to be pretty into it. As they moved along she expressed her desire to eat, which likely was pushed along by the extra anxiety of the previous moments. Of course, this was a sentiment that Ozzy seemed to share, as far as she knew he should also be hungry and they'd pushed off breakfast earlier because of her own... desires. Now she'd run full circle, so she watched as Ozzy gave his outro shouting her out and mentioning his charity. He looked so very comfortable in the moment, she found herself sneaking glances and seeming a bit awestruck. Oh, he was going to turn it off, she should say goodbye. "Bye guys!~" she said while waving herself seeming just a bit abashed as well. One final troll would happen as these two popped off, a message from MisakiNeesan. 'I saw that.' and that was all. Yep, the stream had ended in a random bit of excitement for the viewers who were apparently really excited to meet Nikki.

In the meantime, aside from wanting to eat, Nikki was pleased beyond reason. That was the single best online experience she'd ever had. She could do that again right? Well, maybe not all the time, no one would want to see her literally all the time. But she'd definitely do it once in a while. And play co-op with Ozzy and his chat. Yeah that could be fun.

[Bloodedge]

With a single click, the livestream and all of its connected software were disabled. Of course, that could only happen around the same moment another message appeared within the sea of goodbyes. Who could the sender be, other than MisakiNeesan abandoning her lurking once more? 'I saw that,' she typed. What could she have been referring to exactly? Ozzy failed to realize Nikki had been looking his way during his part of the outro, so he was just about at a total loss. Ah, maybe she was just sending a reminder that she'd seen the hickey on Nikki's neck? That was always possible. "Hm," Ozzy mumbled. Oh well; moving on.

"That was brilliant! You're the best extra person I've ever had on stream, and I'm not just saying that 'cause I'm mad about everything you do. Well, maybe just a bit," he claimed, showcasing a few inches of space between his forefinger and thumb. A little bit was, itself, a little bit of an underestimation... but his statement remained true. Either way, breakfast had been waiting for them for quite some time now. Was it afternoon yet? It could have been, but that didn't matter. Ozzy took the initiative of getting out of his seat, rotating and placing his hands against the couch's back, arms to either of Nikki's sides. When he spoke next, he did so while looking her directly in the face. "Right then, I'll fetch breakfast? Or would you rather go for something fresher than that dusty old fry-up and cold tea by now?"

[Apollymi]

A constant lurker, in Ozzy's chat was MisakiNeesan and though Ozzy didn't know what she was on about, Nikki's eyes widened when she caught sight of that message. "Blimey," she muttered. The girl on the other end of the screen was a special kind of scary. Not in the literal sense of finding her frightening, but of being the type who seemed like she had a large and looming presence. The fact that she stated she was still in high school only made that sort of thing worse. No matter, observant little troll seemed to be a reasonable person, perhaps that would balance out that impressive presence of hers.

According to Ozzy she was the best extra he'd ever had along on stream. He also claimed he wasn't simply saying this as a person crazy about everything he did. "You aren't fooling me mate," she managed finding his underestimation to be way down for the amount he talked her up, even while she was sitting right there. "Still, I had a lot of fun... probably my best online experience to date, of any sort. So yeah... take that win~" she managed. Oh but there was the matter of that breakfast she wanted. Ozzy's position changed and rather suddenly he was standing and staring into her face. "Bloody hell..." she managed at first given the closeness of his face to hers. Ah, she was staring into those eyes of his again, she could really get lost in there. It took everything within her person for her not to just decide eating wasn't really that important at present. What was more, Ozzy's offer to fetch fresher food was something she found absolutely shocking... most would be appalled by what she was about to say, still she thought she'd share the information so he didn't get the wrong idea about the level of maintenance she required as a person. "So, being honest here. Those chips yesterday were about the freshest thing I've eaten all week. My sister was right, I forget to do that sort of thing a lot, so I kind of end up grazing on whatever is still good in my fridge. So, I'm really not that picky."

[Bloodedge]

The reaction of Nikki to such close proximity was very much custom-fitted to Ozzy's desire. Good, he thought. It was good to get some sort of positive reaction out of her, no matter the extent. Once more, Ozzy could have been content in putting a stop to everything for the sake of indulgence, but he wouldn't make a single effort to do such a thing gain already. He wanted to know Nikki's preference for breakfast. What he learned, was that Veronica wasn't sugarcoating a single word she'd spoken to the lass earlier; she hadn't eaten anything even as fresh as the chip basket of yesterday for a week. That wouldn't do at all! "Oh come off it, you can afford to be picky! You've got to eat something, and it might as well be satisfying when you have at it. Tell you what? I'll heat up breakfast now, and if you wanna do pizza booze tele later, I'll go fetch a pie fresh from the shop just for us. None of that rubbish Domino's or anything like that. Just a good, proper hot pizza, yeah?"

With his plan out in the open, Ozzy leaned forward just a bit more. A peck on the lips was only standard at this point, and he struggled to think of doing anything less while being so close to the lass. With that, he could satisfyingly move on to heat up breakfast. Before he backed away to do so, however, he had just a bit more to say. "And when all that's said and done, we'll get you eating like you should. Hell, we can even go by Seven Park Place some time this week if you fancy. I brought an alright suit or two with me~"

[Apollymi]

So close was this man's face to her own, and so bright were the golds of his eyes. She was simply staring after explaining herself, but she went on to receive an earful from this lad about her lack of 'pickiness' when it came to food. He claimed that she had to eat and it might as well be satisfying and that was true enough, though she was always busy enough that it simply didn't seem that important. But if he was going to take a stand about such a thing Nikki would have tried arguing the point but apparently he wasn't going to hear of it. He was going to warm up breakfast now, and if she decided they were truly doing pizza, booze, tele later he was going to get them a fresh one. Not even delivery from a major chain restaurant with this one. Her life was currently taking some strange turns. "I, can't really turn it down... I like pizza as much as the next lass," she said. Though admittedly she normally consumed pizza cold, as she walked around her flat, in her skivvies, while taking a break from whatever thing she was wrapped up in.

Having agreed to such a thing, a peck on the lips followed a closer movement from Ozzy. Oh? That was nice... and followed by, the statement that she was going to have to start eating properly. "Aye, sir." she said with a playful eye roll, truthfully... she felt this was how women got fatted. Though that last statement was one worth addressing. "Seven Park Place? People actually go there... for normal dates? I mean, I'd agree to dinner just to see you in a suit, so... yeah." Nikki said those words and was immediately appraising the man before her. She'd seen him stark naked, but something about the idea of him in a nice suit was a bit enticing. She imagined he couldn't really look bad in anything, but men in suits and uniforms always went way off the scales. And with his build, height and those eyes?! Nikki's mind ran wild with the potentials. She was truly dazed and in quiet consideration, that bottom lip of hers in her mouth as she wondered over things like colors, accessories, shoes. This man would be perfect for so many looks!!

[Bloodedge]

So then, breakfast now and a fresh pizza later in the day─ that was the plan they'd agreed upon. He couldn't have such a dreamy lass walking around a flat and eating cold pizza. Sure, it may have been the fault of work-related distraction or otherwise, but it would never impact his life to come along with a reminder to do something other than graze from a fridge. It could even be fun to watch her shift from being off in her own little world of creativity, to having a distraction in the form of a fresh meal; everyone should have that.

'Aye, sir,' she said following the announcement of proper eating. Playful as the statement was, his right brow rose as a result. "Careful now," he said teasingly. Saying things like that, even jokingly, she'd soon get him started all over again. Ah, but they were still going on about food, and he still had to locate a microwave. He also had to look into reservations for the previously mentioned restaurant. "I don't know who's going there for a normal date, but I'll take you to the bloody moon for tea if you want. That one might take a while though."

And so, Ozzy finally made his first proper movement toward the breakfast trays left out earlier in the morning. He'd set one to microwave while not being far enough away that their discussion couldn't continue, but he would of course take the waiting time to rid himself of that annoying sweater. Though Ozzy wasn't a stranger to throwing something on for the sake of a stream, he hated moving about inside with such a thick garment on. With that being the case, he tossed the article over the back of a chair; it could be consolidated into his other things later on.

[Apollymi]

Breakfast now, pizza later. And Ozzy wandered off to make that happen for her. She wondered immediately how much he planned to have her eat during a day. Was she going to end up one of those people who ate several meals in a single day? Was it going to become regular enough that she had to adopt working out more regularly. Was he trying to fat her? Ah, well... she supposed none of those things mattered in the long run... Instead there was more to focus on, like that playful teasing conversation between them. An 'aye, sir' which was returned with a 'careful now'. Was that really all it took? Some random playful phrase was enough to stop everything. "Aye, sir~" Yes, she was exactly this kind of person. She really should resist as she was actually starving right now. Oh well, she'd hold that for later.

Moving on, they were still talking about food and potential dates for later. And apparently Ozzy himself didn't know if people went to Seven Park Place for normal dates but he'd said he'd take her. Along with an anecdote about taking her to the moon for tea, though that one would take a while. "Bloody hell, I don't really think I'd like the moon too much. Seems like the dress code would be terrible~" she managed, even so she felt light-hearted. She couldn't remember the last time a man was willing to go to such extremes for her. At this point, she could barely remember what the point of dating before Ozzy was, everyone seemed too selfish after having this man lavish her with attention. Nikki for her part in this, still wasn't exactly sure how to react. Still she was thinking about this man in a suit pretty layers to add to him, flesh out his build, work with his height, highlight his best features. Such a thought was becoming near obsessive. Ah, she was going to have to get to that pretty soon or it was going to drive her mad. After she was done eating, she should sketch, yes that would get rid of the extra bits buzzing about in her mind.

[Bloodedge]

As one Styrofoam tray spun about in the microwave, Ozzy caught wind of a repeated sentence. Was it wise of Nikki to say that line again so soon? Perhaps both yes and no were appropriate answers. "Fuck all, I'm going to wind up a deviant if this keeps up," he muttered. If they weren't both running on empty as far as food for the past 20 or so hours was concerned, his reaction would have been quite different. Breakfast had been skipped once already, and he'd already started the microwave. Oh well; there was always later. "I'm not so sure about that dress code. I mean, it's the moon, innit? There's not gonna be anyone around to enforce a code, apart from maybe the freaky alien spider things," he joked. Ah, references to terrible movies he'd seen over the years─ they never left his head in the most random moments.

Two beeps, and a button was pressed to open the microwave. Ozzy removed the first tray, taking a moment to start the next before he returned to the sitting room. The first dish, of course, he offered to Nikki alongside that terribly lukewarm cup of tea. "Hm. Never microwaved a cuppa before. Think I should?" he wondered. Ozzy was the type who managed to take meals much later than he should when busy with a stream or something of the sort, but he always ate fresh food and drank fresh tea when the time came around. Microwaving tea was a completely foreign concept to the lad.

[Apollymi]

Her repeated sentence, got her a new response from Ozzy. He'd become a deviant would he? Well, that wasn't really a problem... Nikki never assumed it would be given his primary obsession in life, was her. "Have a little faith Ozzy, I doubt you'd even be that bad~" she chimed back. They were still flirting but also both acutely aware of the fact that they hadn't eaten at all today. Both of these individuals would be somewhat withholding more deviant activities for the sake of sating their legitimate hunger. There was truly always later, but what was this about the dress code of the moon. No one to enforce it? Well, except the spiders. "Oy, that movie was terrible. Though I suppose that would be better than the alternative of the moon hatching, that'd be a problem and a half for a date..." she said with a hearty chuckle.

She was offered the first plate of food, and Ozzy wondered about warming of a cup of tea. She accepted the food with a smile, "Cheers mate," she stated. Apparently he'd never used a microwave for such a thing and the tea itself was already only lukewarm. Luckily enough... Nikki spent way too much time in her own space doing completely unrelated things and forgetting about food. Still, she was Brit enough to need a hot cuppa. Still she'd manage to look a bit abashed as she mentioned it, given that she'd already stated her own propensity for eating cold food and fridge grazing. "45 seconds from lukewarm will make it hot. A little strong but... definitely can't be drinking a cold cuppa."

[Bloodedge]

"Don't go doubting it now. I think it'll be hard not to pull out and have a go in broad daylight," Ozzy admitted while handing over the food. In that same matter of moments, Nikki commented on the horrendous nature of the movie he'd referenced, while also bringing up a more pleasurable viewing experience... but an overall worse event to occur anywhere in reality. "Honestly, I think I'd take the hatching moon to a billion face-huggers. Though that one had those little enzymes or whatever too, so... yeah, I guess that's worse overall. But, take those out, and what you've got left is a free space ride on a giant moon dragon thing."

Only forty-five seconds would be needed to heat a cup of tea from the temperature it was, said Nikki. That was quite useful information, and he'd certainly prefer a bit of strength in his tea over having it room temperature. "Just over a minute for two then? Gotcha. Back in a tic," he said, returning to the microwave to remove his own food tray. Both cups of tea were slid into the device, and the timer set while he held his breakfast in hand. A yawn escaped Ozzy during the wait, but he wasn't at all tired. No, this yawn came more from a sense of relaxation. "God damn, this is the type of day where I could just go for a biscuit and chillax the whole morning away," he commented absently, remembering an earlier thought just after. "Wait, is it still morning? We didn't shag the whole first quarter of the day away, did we?"

[Apollymi]

"Blimey, that would probably only be deviant depending on the type of visibility daylight is providing here..." she said as if she was making actual consideration of his claim. To be fair, she was having a hard enough time concentrating on anything that wasn't him given her own intentions here. So, she really couldn't fault him for thinking his actions might get away from him a bit. In all honesty, her own had gotten away from her a few times already, such was their current situation of only eating right just now. Ah, their conversation abut science-fiction was reaching a new level. The hatching moon for the extra ride in space. "Hm, I didn't think about the transport part of it. Actually, hatching moon does sound like a plan. I wouldn't mind it so much..." she said coming to a similar conclusion. Oh, how nice it was, to be able to have a random nerd conversation without it becoming some strange contest of trying to one-up the next person with their knowledge of lore or fact in a conversation. She could really get used to this kind of casual self expression.

Just a minute for two cups, then they could both eat together. Nikki was herself not the type to eat alone if someone else was around so she'd wait on Ozzy's return before digging in. It seemed he was relaxed more than he'd been even before. He claimed today was a day that he could see himself just relaxing into, and Nikki could only agree. "Yeah, honestly today has a wrapped up doing nothing feel to it," she said of the casual feeling of the day itself. Of course, that level of relaxation probably had something to do with how they'd spent their early morning hours. So, he'd arrived back after 5am had they shagged the morning away? A chuckle left Nikki as her eyes found a wall clock. "It's half eleven. So... not the whole first quarter of the day~" she said with a wistful little smile. "Definitely not a bad way to spend a morning though, definitely my new favorite," she said cutting her eyes in the lad's direction. She hadn't missed that he'd returned shirtless. He was really making it hard not to ogle him all day. Was this how men felt about it? She'd have to ask eventually.

[Bloodedge]

Here Ozzy was, giving a strange amount of consideration to the idea of moon travel and other such unrealistic things. This was such a queer conversation to have, and yet, no words shared felt out of place or without contribution to the overall enjoyment of banter. "Wouldn't mind it, eh? I'll book a trip as soon as I can; promise. One space trip by moon dragon, or as close as I can get anyway." Oh, the jokes. Of course, Ozzy really would have arranged such a thing if it were possible. If only that were the case, huh? Oh well; one could always dream.

Nikki agreed about the sort of day this felt like. Honestly, Ozzy could go for such a thing. Being in Nikki's company would only make that sort of day even more relaxing, and two minds could even easily come up with something to do if that somehow became boring. "I've got a brilliant idea!" Ozzy announced. Once the microwave beeped again, he took out both cups of tea and brought them to the coffee table in front of Nikki. Before he bothered fetching his own heated food, he walked all the way to the bedroom to retrieve a blanket to bring back. Grabbing his food on the way back into the sitting room, he made known his intentions. "Not quite pizza booze tele, but how's brekkie blankie tele instead?" he questioned. "If we already burned through most of the morning, might as well commit to laying up for the whole day, yeah?"

[Apollymi]

Ah, she'd jokingly replied that she wouldn't mind a trip in space on a moon dragon. Apparently, it was Ozzy's claim that he'd set that up, or whatever he could get that was close enough to it. What a fantasy driven thing to say, still she didn't mind it at all. It was nice to be able to joke about things like that, nice to have banter just roll with no real expectations. And best yet, it was absolutely lovely to have anyone care to go so far on her account. Not that she needed it, she simply enjoyed it as an idea now that it was presented. "I really am going to end up spoiled, waiting on a date that features dragons and space. Still... I can't really say I'd mind any date you set up~" Nikki mentioned. For her part in the dating world, finding someone who just wanted to do normal or fun things was kind of hard. She was enjoying the nice bit of normalcy that Ozzy was bringing to her life. Gentle offers for dinner, video games, just sitting around all day... these were the kinds of things she was after. And there was nothing wrong with dreaming of fanciful things like space flights because she could find the fun in that too, if he was along.

Ah, but what was this, the lad came back with tea for both of them, but not his plate. Instead he wandered off for a moment and came back with his plate and a blanket. He did claim he had a brilliant idea and she was curious about what it pertained to... Oh. That was it. Instead of pizza, booze, tele. It was to be, brekkie, blankie, tele? "Bloody brilliant! I was committed to laying up the whole day to start with... but a blankie to go with brekkie is great," How many just wanted to cuddle, eat and watch tv? Not many in Nikki's experience. In fact, the Netflix and chill era was upon them, where no one did anything without expecting to end up fornicating all over the place. And though admittedly between the pair of them it could likely end up that way, she still enjoyed the idea of just cuddling up eating and watching tv for however long it lasted.

[Bloodedge]

"Well, I'm afraid to say you'll be waiting quite a while. Technology catching up and all, I might have to raincheck for a few centuries," said Ozzy. Oh, if only it were possible to acquire a space dragon or something of the sort. Maybe he could find something almost as incredible over time. Whether he could or not, he'd start with a comfortable breakfast over some nice morning television.

Nikki clearly agreed that breakfast and a blanket was a brilliant idea. Frankly, Ozzy was oddly satisfied to have come up with such a thing. Close quarters on a couch, a comfortable room, any sort of random thing to watch, and some microwaved breakfast. Everything simply screamed 'lazy day' at varying volumes, and Ozzy couldn't have thought better of it. So, as he settled atop the couch in only a pair of shorts, he draped the blanket over Nikki's legs and his own, taking up his breakfast and the tv remote─ the latter of which he would hand off to Nikki. "Cheers then! I'm not picky about what's on, so have at whatever you like. I'm gonna have at this black pudding they slipped in," he announced, popping open his Styrofoam tray and deeply inhaling the scent of his breakfast. "What sort of shows do you watch anyway? Well, besides Doctor Who and rubbish American movies~"

[Apollymi]

"I'm pretty patient mate... don't rush centuries on my account~" Nikki was oddly agreeable. Right at the moment she was content just to spend time with Ozzy and find out about him in a more detailed manner. In the same way that he'd developed an obsession with her that he was only properly quenching now. She was in the earliest stages of her own thirst and full of curiosities and desires for closeness. Many blokes weren't as content to sit at home, nor were the content with the kinds of things she found fun. Ozzy on the other hand had enough in common with her that she felt utterly relaxed in his presence.

Speaking of relaxation, she only became more comfortable with the addition of a blanket. She tucked her legs beneath herself as she was handed the remote for the tv and told he didn't mind whatever she wanted to watch. "Ooh? Black Pudding... I never get that..." she said seemingly happy with the knowledge of the addition. "Also you might be mad, handing over the remote to a lass in the middle of the morning..." she said. Her own choice of tv wasn't so much of a problem but many women she knew watched terrible tv. "I like science fiction and fantasy shows, oh the American adult cartoons, anime when I can find it... but at this hour there is only one real thing worth watching... even just as background noise," she mentioned finding the channel she was looking for, which was coincidentally on commercial stating that block of 3 hours of Law & Order were up next. "Crime shows... this one's brilliant." she said settling into watch the tv show and dig into her breakfast. She went for sausages first while breaking out a spoon for beans.

[Bloodedge]

"Why would I go and do that? There's a lot to come between now and then. Seven Park Place, the altar, you, me, you again, a bunch of games... You know, the usual," Ozzy declared, throwing in a bit of cheekiness as if there was nothing to it. As Nikki found her comfort, he did something similar. Ozzy was sitting to the lass' left, so it was his left leg which tucked under his right for the sake of creating a makeshift table structure under the blanket. He remained rather close, keeping just enough distance to avoid any arms knocking against each other during the eating process.

Ozzy was ready to begin eating, but first came whatever Nikki decided to put on tv. What she chose after a warning about handing women remotes mid-morning, was... crime shows. Specifically, she was starting a 3-hour block of Law & Order. "Law & Order, huh? That the UK one?" he asked, having a bit of his own strange habits to reveal thereafter. "I've only ever really watched the American one. I've got a thing for Ice-T being a bloody moron for entire episodes of SVU. Guy doesn't even know his own job half the time, and I think that's brilliant to watch."

[Apollymi]

According to Ozzy there was a lot to come between now and their future space ride on a moon dragon. His cheeky words made her look up from her meal with a side eye but she couldn't even pretend to be mad as her face cracked into a smile. "You're full of it, mate!" she cracked only to nod her agreement soon after. "Still, that list is pretty good. So, I'll be having that..." she said with her own level of cheek. Yes... again, marriage had just come up and no one had anything negative to say about it. In truth, Nikki wouldn't mind all manner of legally tying this man to her person. Or maybe even physical... he seemed like the type to attract undo attention. Probably needed to get a pair of kiddie cuffs with the little extending leash so she could make sure women knew who he was attached to...

After her warning about the nature of women and tv she'd chosen Law and Order as her show of choice. Strangely, she was asked if this was the UK one, she chuckled. "I do watch that one too, but... that's considered prime time tv here. Only in America will they air crime shows before noon like it's perfectly reasonable," she said. She'd gotten quite familiar with this while she was in design school and spent large chunks of her mornings with the sounds of American actors fighting crime in the background. According to Ozzy he watched the American version of SVU and found it hilarious that a certain character didn't know how to do his job most of the time. "Shut up! That's brilliant." she mentioned of that particular cliché, though she'd not watched that show herself. "I heard that one had a lot of seasons. It's on my watch list after I manage to catch up on everything else," the watch list was super long. It always was. She continued on her breakfast actively eating a bit here and there. Stealing glances at the tv, mostly after stealing a couple of side ways ones at Ozzy.

[Bloodedge]

"I am not! That really is the list~" he continued, still yammering on as if he hadn't said a strange or misplaced thing yet. Regardless, Nikki once again confirmed the goodness of his offered plan. She'd have all of that, would she? Excellent! He'd bring it all to the table with a bit to spare, and he'd keep doing it to the end of time. Maybe he'd even manage such a thing while being restrained, and in some form physically and legally attached to Nikki, if her own internal musings held any weight.

That American version of the show they discussed was far too hilarious due to a single, specific character portrayal within it. Ozzy could have watched an entire marathon of just that character, saying the random things he did, for a full weekend. Instead though, he could happily watch any random thing Nikki wished to put on... when he wasn't preoccupied watching the lass herself, that is. Actually, a combination of both was about where he wished to settle. Yes, that would do nicely. "Oh it's chock full of seasons, but it's all good stuff. Couple trigger warnings to be thrown around obviously, but I'm guessing you're past all that already if you're watching."

[Apollymi]

Not full of it? All of it was on the list? Ozzy was hilarious... of course, Nikki enjoyed this about him in general. He seemed to be so very at ease, and genuine in his feelings she could hardly disagree with him even just playfully. "Hefty list, mate." she commented absently. She was already eating and their show had been decided. And while Nikki ate, and glanced at the lad and the tv, they continued to have a random conversation between bites. Right now, apparently the other version of American Law & Order. Here they were, sitting side by side, like two kids on Saturday morning eating breakfast and watching shows. The pair of them were having a great time already, imagine how normal this was going to be. They were going to have a great time and it all started with moments like this... "Trigger warnings for shows are unnecessary for me. I watch terrible tv, movies and all kinds of stuff. Oh and documentaries as long as they're narrated by someone I like," explained Nikki. She had a pretty high tolerance for gore and the like as well. So everything that happened in the crime shows was fair game. She'd definitely move the other show up her list if it was something she could watch in Ozzy's presence. "Also, this breakfast is bloody brilliant," she managed still having a pretty good time.

[Bloodedge]

Hefty list, was it? That wasn't even half of what Ozzy intended. "It's way bigger than just that," he said prior to a bite of black pudding with a side of mushroom. Relaxation was something he found with great ease in this room. Strangely enough, he could give none of the credit to the hotel and its admittedly magnificent suites. No, such accommodations could only go so far in terms of luxury. True relaxation came from a point of peace, which Ozzy only found now that the 'running' segment of his chase after Nikki was over. All he had to do now, was finish sinking his teeth into the catch just as he bit into blood sausage, and sustain himself henceforth. What a marvelous experience it was, seasoned by the laziness of a random morning watching tele with a blanket in the sitting room, as well as the most casual and normally meaningless conversation. This was, perhaps, what one would call the spice of life. "Oh Attenborough, definitely," was a statement offered between bites, as Ozzy latched onto the specific mention of selectively watching documentaries. "Nobody should be turning their nose up to a documentary with him narrating. Best background voice ever, his."

[Apollymi]

Both of these people were already relaxed and enjoying a nice meal and a chat. Though she'd already mentioned how hefty his list was, Ozzy claimed that it was bigger than that... "Bigger than that? Blimey, a girl isn't gonna know what to do with herself," she mused between bites. She was having a strange time right now. She wasn't sure she'd ever felt more comfortable in a man's presence and that was a bit surprisingly considering it wasn't as if she didn't have a live-in boyfriend for a while before now. Was this peace? This seemed like peace. Ah, but they were still talking even as she nibbled on eggs and worked towards finishing her second warm plate of food this week. "Yeah, he's probably my favorite. I watched an entire documentary last week on dolphins because he was narrating. It was really random but bloody hell it was probably the most compelling thing I'd watched in weeks," she mentioned of her most recent watching habits. All the while her eyes moved around a great deal she couldn't much help it, sneaking a glance or two of Ozzy was par for the course.

[Bloodedge]

"That's fine though, innit? I've got some ideas what to do with you, so don't worry over what to do with yourself," said Ozzy, continuing with the casual flirting they'd both allowed to fester for some time now. Oddly enough, he was quite proud of his most recent line, and it showed on the smug little face he wore at the time. Regardless, he easily moved past such a statement to continue eating. A bit of sausage here, a bit of egg there, and a bit of tomato somewhere else; he was making reasonably quick work of his meal. Of course, Ozzy knew the dangers of a microwaved meal. For whatever reason, those things could be nuked within the heating device, but they never held heat for very long at all. One bite could be piping hot, only for the next to taste as if it had recently left the refrigerator. He very well wouldn't be dealing with that, if he could help it at all. "I love that guy, but I can't say he's my favorite. I do enjoy Cumberbatch and his 'pingwings' talk a lot more than I should, honestly. I think I know exactly the show you're on about as well! The one with the bottlenose dolphins that go a bit campy when they get lonely?"

[Apollymi]

"Oh?" that was a new thing. A very flirtatious statement left the mouth of Ozzy. He claimed that he had plenty in mind to do with the lass so she didn't have to worry over it herself. "Well bloody hell, if I'll argue about it then. Begging your pardon~" she said just as teasingly as she had been speaking this entire time. There was a certain bit of mischievousness conveyed by her tone in these moments. Like it had a tiny edge of a challenge to it. Whatever the case she definitely wouldn't get between the lad and his goals as they surrounded her. It was in her best interest to see those through to the end after all.

At the same time she was well beyond working her way through her meal of choice. She knew better than most that there was a short life time on dishes warmed up in the microwave. So what were they talking about as the lass became dangerously close to finishing her meal? Dolphins and a certain indirect habit of those unfortunate enough to end up separated from their home group, and a secondary narrator and his bad habits. "Right?! That whole thing was amazing to me. Don't feel bad though mate, there are plenty of blokes who like Cumberbatch. He's pretty funny to be honest. Like seriously, how did no one tell him at any point how very wrong his pronunciations were? That was comical." Nikki admitted having chuckled just a bit while she very easily found her comfort. As for the dolphins and their behavior she was amazed anyone else had been paying that much attention. "Wow! That's pretty accurate as a description... camp is about how I would describe their behavior when they suddenly decide to reverse their usual roles cause they wandered too far away from the group." she remembered of that particular documentary. Eventually her plate would be empty and she'd just be chatting after setting it down for a few moments while her eyes danced back and forth between the tv and Ozzy. The meal of choice was definitely worth it, now she could focus on another one.

[Bloodedge]

Flirting returned. . . How interesting it was to have a two-way discussion like this. Ozzy might have expected some sort of flustered reaction, or even any level of playful banter as a rebuttal, but not such outright statements. Now then, what was he to do with the words reaching his ear? Well, he could only respond in kind, right? "Beg all you like; it'll get you whatever you're asking for outta me," he claimed. Flirtatious as their words were, Ozzy hadn't spoken a single untruth yet.

Matters of documentary narrators and random documentary-related factoids were the topic at present, and though both were new matters of discussion for Ozzy, he didn't feel out of place in the conversation at all. No, he instead felt as if these were the sorts of chats he should've been having all along, perhaps even with his stream. Ah... but perhaps that wouldn't have even been the same as present circumstances, huh? Did it matter what they were talking about? He hardly thought so, as he nearly inhaled half a sausage with a bite of mushrooms to finish his own breakfast. There were two Styrofoam trays, and both wound up settled in the same place upon the coffee table as Ozzy shifted himself on the couch to face Nikki. "Everyone should like that guy; he's incredible. His run of Sherlock was great, though I wish Moffat would get off his arse and actually do something with the show. I'm still a series behind because I don't know when more is coming! And yeah, poor dolphins. I can't say I blame them for doing whatever it takes to fit in when their group's gone astray. I probably wouldn't try it, but good on them for having the balls. What do you think? Could you fake it for survival?" he asked, ever so casually keeping up the most random discussion while his adoring gaze remained permanently fixated on the woman sharing a couch with him. This was going to become a standard in Nikki's life; Ozzy's outlook would remain unchanged. Indeed, even discussions about nothing would have him watching her as if she were the thing pumping life's blood into his veins.

[Apollymi]

The flirting between this pair was about more than could be expected. Well, that wasn't really true, but it definitely seemed to be more than one would expect of two relative strangers. Of course, Nikki found this lad's company about as comforting as that of closer relatives, as such she felt much more at ease being herself. "Blimey, you're handing over all the answers, just like that?" she teased rhetorically. "I've really got no choice then, I'll definitely have to use that... knowing it will work and all~" she mused. It really was interesting to flirt and have it bounce back and forth between two people. What was more, something else about this conversation was becoming steadily more strange.

They were done eating, and now they were just talking. It was such a random conversation about tv shows and the behavior of dolphins but it was so free flowing she couldn't help but find herself engrossed in it. "Well, yeah... actually I am a series behind on that as well. Moffat might as well be one of the Aeons the way he puts stuff off," she said of the series Sherlock and its resident writer. And those poor dolphins. After bringing them up, Ozzy was turning having already finished his food. He turned to watch her as her brought up a question. He claimed that he couldn't fake it at all... and asked instead if she thought she could. What an interesting question and what a strange amount of attention. Nikki found herself actually thinking about it a genuine amount while stealing a casual glance or two from Ozzy. His entire position had changed so he could face her, he was literally giving her is undivided attention. She hadn't asked for it. How weird. She was so used to people half listening to her and sending her on about her way that someone so interested in her words in such a casual setting was... almost unheard of. While she thought it over she gently bit her bottom lip.

"Well, I probably could for the sake of survival. Faking to fit in, or to avoid danger is a basic girl skill," she explained of her own thoughts about her nature as a potential covert operative in the same situation as a dolphin. "The dolphin situation is pretty extreme, but girls fawn all over each other even when the hate each other if the conditions are right. It'd be pretty easy to pull off. Besides, I went to an all girls school for primary and secondary, so it wouldn't be that far-fetched. Mostly it'd have about the same impact as switching friend groups which means I'd only have to really fake it for the girl with the most pull in the group. The rest would cave to that one. So, it'd be all good." Oh yes, a case study in girl social dynamics and moving about in the world. All things Nikki said in this moment she thought to be true about the most normal of girl to girl interactions. In the way it could have been framed, if she faked being interested in the girl highest on the ladder, she could definitely succeed at faking it for the sake of survival.

[Bloodedge]

What an interesting potential future Ozzy was outright throwing himself into. He had no problem freely offering Nikki armaments to be used against him at her leisure. That she said she would make use of them, was more reason to put them on the table. "Use it all you like. I'd be miffed if you didn't," he insisted. When would that come into play, and how, he wondered. Time would tell. Moving right along though, the writer they referred to as 'Moffat' was being compared to the more well-renowned Aeons. Ozzy could certainly see the similarities, but there was a stark difference between the two he had to address. "Quite right, that. I wonder if he used to be one of them, actually. They used to have a pretty big group back in the early days, and the Aeons did end up taking over Doctor Who permanently. Conspiracy, maybe?" he said half-jokingly.

There it was again─ that biting of a lip. She had to know by now, that even a simple and subconscious gesture like that was more than enough to rile him up. What was it for this time? Whatever the case may have been, his eyes were drawn to that lip caught betwixt teeth immediately. He should take a bite for himself. No, no; they were in the middle of a conversation. That would be rather rude and a bit forward, he thought. Yes, they'd done enough indulging without notice... for the moment. "Really, you could do that? Not me. Being a bit different to fit in is one thing, but I'd think more than twice before I decided to go rubbing my arse all over some other guy. Besides, what about dress code? I'd have to wear a skirt or something, pop a couple melons down my jumper. I've got a bit of junk in the trunk, but I really don't think I could use it like that."

[Apollymi]

Nikki was told by Ozzy that she should use the information she'd obtained from him all she liked. This man was indeed among the strangest she'd ever encountered. She'd never met someone so set on having her, they were willing to turn over themselves completely to her whims. Did she like that? Yes. Was it okay that she liked that? She wasn't quite sure. Well, he'd claimed that he'd be upset if she didn't use such things against him, who was she to argue and keep a man like him from what he desired so clearly. "Well, again... wouldn't want you upset or anything. Maybe I should have you submit it in writing, ya' know... so you can't back out on it after it's been abused a bit~" she half-joked and flirted. Of course, that could be taken as another marriage proposal and she sort of meant it that way so she wasn't at all upset. Moving on though, Ozzy gave up the conspiracy that maybe the man known as Moffat had been one of the Aeons before. He brought up the idea that the Aeons had taken over Doctor Who as well. "Blimey, I never thought of that. It would be something... and explain the random turns his writing takes. I'm not gonna be able to let that one go. Confirmed, Moffat was an Aeon..." Nikki exclaimed. How nice that that conversations like this could be had between them without it becoming awkward or some kind of knowledge based game show in which she was apparently the unwilling challenger.

Ah, he was staring at her again. Where were his eyes going? Oh, she was biting her lip while thinking and his eyes were aimed there. Well... she didn't expect that. Or rather she did, but she didn't know her normal habit would be such a sticking point of him. Oh... that was just another thing to use against him wasn't it? She shouldn't be thinking like that should she? This was how those spoiled bitchy types ended up dragging some poor bloke along by his meat... wasn't it? Well, he seemed to want to be dragged along by well... his anything though. So it shouldn't matter right? Regardless of this, she stared at him as he spoke. Her eyes traveled over his person. He claimed he wouldn't be able to pretend that hard for that sort of thing. Claiming both a difference in clothing as well as a use of his body. She'd taken in a lot about his physical form and shrugged. "You gotta give yourself a bit more credit mate. If anything your sister is proof you'd make a bang-up girl in looks alone at least~" she claimed in a somewhat joking manner. Still she couldn't deny the form of his shape being so interesting and adding to his overall appeal. "Nothing wrong with having a nice butt either..." Yes, Nikki could easily find herself enjoying this man, but was it really alright? She supposed that was something she'd have to keep thinking about over time.

[Bloodedge]

"Writing, huh?" What an interesting thing it was she had to say. There was an implication to such a thing, though Ozzy wondered if he was just thinking too hard about the sentence or not. Maybe he was... but he hadn't been the only one to randomly start talking about marriage thus far, right? Even if he had been, there was only one way he was fated to react. "I'll slip it in my vows, yeah? Have it legal and religious for all I care~" he chimed ever so casually, even while wearing a smile. Joking though his tone may have been all along, Ozzy was never anything short of serious. That included, of course, the concept of one Steven Moffat being one of the Aeons. "There's no way he couldn't have at least been associated, right? They all write like mad lads, and the Aeons' names are all over the place. Some English, some Greek, some Japanese─ they're about as hard to figure out the race of as Daft Punk!"

Judging by his sister, Ozzy would make one hell of a girl, as far as Nikki was concerned. He scoffed playfully, waving a dismissive hand about in response. "Oh come off it! Think of the rest of the world, eh? Add birthing hips to my fat arse, and I'd be sold into a sex trafficking ring. Even now, I'm deathly afraid of going to prison!" he admitted. The thought of himself as a woman was a frightening thing, and comparing his would-be feminine form to that of his sister's was even more dangerous. How many times would Aubree have been locked up, had he not been the one to step in and handle some obnoxious lad? Too many was the answer. "Besides, if you're not at least bisexual, I want nothing to do with having any of that. Though if you've been staring at my back meat regardless, I might wonder how much attention's left for the front~"

[Apollymi]

Nikki had jokingly claimed to need his submission in writing and Ozzy had offered it in turn in a very specific manner. As part of his vows...apparently. So it could be both legally binding and religious if she wanted it that way. Her eyes widened and she couldn't stop the laughter that escaped her, seriously there was no way this lad was so very open about his intentions towards her. "Blimey, I know you're serious and I still couldn't hold that one back... you keep saying stuff like that to me, we'll actually end up married, ya' know?" she asked him. She knew he liked her more than most people ever would, and she would never be accused of not reciprocating it to a more than reasonable extent. They really would end up married if he kept it up. She wouldn't be able to give herself any time to back away from him, if he threw himself at her feet like he kept doing... and she strangely didn't mind that. Maybe she should? Or maybe... it was fine this way. Whatever the case, he spoke more of the Aeons and their inability to be pegged to a singular nationality or even a specific kind of people, just like a techno band known for its mysterious members. "Oh? Bloody hell, how could I have missed it. New theory confirmed, the Aeons and Daft Punk are the same people!" she exclaimed as if she'd broken some major case that they'd been working on for literal years.

According to Ozzy she had to think of the rest of the world when making the assumption he'd be a nice girl. Birthing hips to his bottom would indeed make him the stuff of legend. Nikki herself would be jealous of such a figure, in the long run. He even claimed his bottom was a reason that he feared prison, "Well, I can't really blame ya' there. You are gorgeous... I doubt it's only girls who think so. Better stay on your best behavior mate~" she managed seeming to find the humor in it regardless. It seemed though that Ozzy was content not to be a girl, and would only really have considered it if Nikki herself was interested in women. She gave it a fake moment of consideration before laughing at his joke. "Though I spend a great deal of time staring at gorgeous women, I am only into blokes. Girl you would have to live with that... though," she looked at him for a moment and knew for a fact that if those eyes of his approached her, even in a girl's face, she might give it a bit of consideration. "I'm a full package deal sort of lass. So, I am giving equal attention for all parts... besides, butts gotta be accounted for if we're gonna get you in a nice suit later~" she mentioned ever so casually. Nothing wrong with a guy having a nice arse or anything of the sort.

[Bloodedge]

If he kept saying such things, they'd actually end up married. He should keep saying them then, shouldn't he? Surely Nikki understood that she wasn't deterring him at all with words like that. No, if anything, he would henceforth be making suggestions like that more than ever before. "I can pop out to buy a ring right now. That alright?" he questioned. He wouldn't really be heading out to buy a ring, but it wasn't it all because he didn't really want to. No, the sort of ring he would offer someone like Nikki couldn't be bought in any old jewelry store─ much less one found in the streets of London. He'd have to look into things, have one custom crafted and all to be satisfied!

Besides, Ozzy wouldn't dare leave behind the longest conversation he'd had with an actual person in years. The only other person who could get him talking this much, outside of a livestream, was his sister─ and they'd been through it all together. How were they still going on about Aeons, Steven Moffat and... Daft Punk of all things? One couldn't understand, but understanding was not a necessity in rare moments like these. "That's brilliant! There's even two of 'em! We've got to call science or something on this," he continued. What the hell were they even carrying on about now?

Apparently, everything from Daft Punk's identity to his own imaginary gender could be considered a free topic at the time. Ozzy already knew care was to be taken, regardless of the eyes that were on him. He really did attract all types, despite wanting nothing to do with most people in that way. As such, he had a very easy time sympathizing with women being 'cat-called' out in the open. Yes, he suffered such a thing with great frequency as well. "Bloody hell, I just imagined what it would be like to get called out by straight guys as well. I couldn't deal; I'd have to assign a bodyguard. How do you even put up with that lot by themselves?" he asked. A brow was quirked when Nikki mentioned his posterior in regards to a nice suit. Gears were turning in Ozzy's head, until finally... "Wait... could I get you to throw me together a suit? Oh, that'd be brilliant! I'd pay and all, and I'd probably never take the damn thing off! Washing would get weird pretty fast. . ."

[Apollymi]

More laughter from Nikki. This man seemed as serious about marrying her as she'd jokingly implied she was about marrying him. How very strange. What was more, she truly didn't mind it as an idea. "Blimey, that shouldn't even be a a shocker anymore. I'd say knock yourself out, but I am enjoying chatting with ya... do it later whenever you go out for pizza~" she said with a quick nod. It'd been quite a while since she conversed for so long about basically nothing, she couldn't give it up too quickly. Besides, Ozzy was a great deal of fun, she wouldn't send him out just to start preparations for their wedding, there was so much to do before they managed an actual wedding. Speaking of their conversations about nothing, it seemed her mention of the Aeons being Daft Punk hit the mark appropriately. They really did need to get science on that... it had to be the truth. Nothing could have been clearer to her eyes. "Right? I'm really proud of that one, my best theory yet!" she exclaimed seemingly more than a little amused.

Moving on, the imaginary gender of a girl Ozzy eventually led to a conversation about fending off straight males in addition to the gay ones of prison. A small smirk came to Nikki's face how did someone like her get away with walking around in public alone? Well... she was raised as a girl the entire time, so she was kind of already used to navigating some of men's more toxic behaviors towards her. "Well, initially I got away with being a bit too... strange for the average bloke to approach, that way. But there has been a sudden surge in popularity when it comes to obviously nerdy potential girlfriends," she said. "So, there are only really three options. 1. Ignore... but that usually comes with being called some kind of stuck up cunt afterwards. 2. Smile and say thank you, but that usually ends with more conversation you don't actually want to have. Though it's the best option if someone seems scary. 3. You can tell them to bugger off. But that also ends in you being called some kind of ugly," she explained of her own general situation. "Kindly turning down such advances doesn't work in my experience it usually ends in more conversation and a lack of understanding. But I feel like it's because the general population doesn't handle rejection well..." she said with a casual shrug. She'd seen all forms of this so she was aware of it. Given what Ozzy looked like she was surprised he wasn't being currently hunted down by every of age woman in the area, and fawned over by anyone who found him attractive.

Ah but beyond the real life struggle of being an attractive girl out in public alone, there was the matter of making a suit for Ozzy. A grin crossed the girl's face. "Well, I was probably going to do it anyways... I've been thinking a lot about it. I'll end up sketching something up. Though I'd consider it a labor of passion, and work like that can't be bought. Well, except fabric, I could let you buy fabric. Though I have pretty good connections for that in all the major places I visit... " she said yep, she'd fallen back into thinking about it. Biting on that bottom lip of hers as she imagined him in a suit. Oh nice dark colors, silks... lighter accessories, creams or gold hues maybe. They'd definitely highlight his look his hair and his facial structure. She could do a lot with just a little. He didn't even need any help, his build was great, so was his face. Ugh, it really wasn't fair.

[Bloodedge]

"Well since you insist, I should get on it then, shouldn't I? Nah, that won't work. Never trust a shop for something you plan on keeping for life." There were a few solid rules of thumb in the life of Ozzy, and his most recent words contained one of them. Shops were too mainstream, too... commercial use by way of quality. What point would there be in finding a ring at a shop, just to one day see a copy of it on someone else's finger? No no, none of that! "I'll still go for pizza though. That'll have to do, sadly~"

The more they spoke, the more Ozzy found himself gradually leaning forward. He had no specific aim in doing so, but being able to watch Nikki while also having such a riveting discussion had his attention firmly grasped. Nothing could sway his gaze now, and nothing could take his ear. Could he even smell or taste anything else? He probably couldn't. That gleam in his eye was probably somehow sacrificing his senses of taste and smell to let his gaze gain more focus. "That's fun and all, but I might actually believe you. If those guys ever come down to chat us up, I'm definitely asking them to sample a track," he said, content to pursue the idea of Daft Punk and the Aeons being one and the same. As for the methods of dealing with cat-calling blokes, he couldn't rationalize a bit of it. There was a full list of options, but every part of the list came with potential negatives. How the hell was anyone supposed to manage? "So options one through four are all high chance of loss. That's mad. I'd just go for the bodyguard, honestly. Tell you what! I'll buy the stuff for that suit you want to make, and you fend off all the blokes that want my arse if I ever turn into a girl! Then, as extra payment for the suit, I'll fight the blokes who want your arse," he said, knowing in the depths of his soul that he'd probably see many a fight in his future anyway. . .

[Apollymi]

What was this? According to Ozzy he couldn't trust a shop for something he planned on keeping for life. That much made sense, production being what it was, it was hard to get the full lifetime usage out of an object. It was also pretty hard for getting unique items. Ozzy seemed like the type to enjoy that sort of thing, she was a designer for similar reasons. "Well I can't argue with that... I suppose I'll learn some patience then~" she mused happily. "I'm still taking the pizza though... I like pepperoni," she explained of her topping choice. She didn't hate anything else, but that was likely her favorite general topping, because even if the pizza was bad, a bad pepperoni pizza was still a good pizza. "You can put anything else ya' like on there, but it's a must have topping for me," she explained of herself... Yes, a strange transition, but everything was a strange transition at this point.

Speaking of strange things, Ozzy was apparently onboard with the idea that the Aeons were Daft Punk. That was great, he'd ask for a sample of their next track next time. "Bloody hell, that'd be a day wouldn't it. Imagine them actually handing over a track. I might literally die on the spot!" she exclaimed in an excited manner. How very interesting such a day would have been. Oh? Ozzy didn't understand the better parts of fending off males who cat-called. That was alright... "To be fair, we don't really get it either. Never had a bodyguard though, so if you're offering I'll take it. Though I should warn you, that telling those types you're the boyfriend probably won't properly discourage. At least, it never worked for me to mention having a bloke before," she explained of the general situation. Still, he was leaning ever so close, she wondered how interested he truly was in this random conversation they were having. She was also leaning in a bit, why not, excited utterances were everywhere and it was so fun to chat like a normal person for once. "I'll also look after you... even now," she said happily, only to think about it for a moment. "Especially now." she said with a firm nod of her head. She didn't understand men, but she knew what women were like. A man as gorgeous as Ozzy would undoubtedly draw a lot of female attention wherever he went. It would be quite insidious but it would likely be even more frequent if he was in her company. For some reason, many a skanky lass existed in the world trying to steal handsome taken men. It was a strange pitfall of female society. Probably some weird science explanation for going after someone already established but, it was the modern age. People lived in a society, a bit of decency shouldn't be too much to ask for. Oh well, she was pretty good at noticing such things, and had every implication that Ozzy only had eyes for her. She wasn't a child anymore, it wasn't like someone was going to try and fight her in the school yard over wanting her boyfriend or anything. Yeah, everything would be fine ultimately. She wondered why she was so trusting of Ozzy but... she couldn't really explain that she felt like he wasn't actually going to be the sort who was being watched for his own actions.

[Bloodedge]

Patience would be key for any sort of ring to be acquired. Such a thing was a pretty big deal to Ozzy, even as just an idea. He couldn't and wouldn't go half-assing something like that, so it was a matter for the semi-distant future at best. Regardless, he wasn't into marriage for marriage's sake anyway. He was into Nikoleta, and that was all there was to it. "That's a good lass. It'll be worth the wait, promise~" he stated. As for the pizza, he couldn't complain about most toppings. Even just a pepperoni pie was fine with Ozzy. "Pepperoni it is. Cheesy crust?" was asked as an addition. "Nothing like cheesy crust with a beer cheese dip and an actual beer. Oh! You good with Guinness, or would you rather something else?"

Ozzy didn't understand reactions to the cat-calling response. He doubted most lads did, but according to Nikki, women didn't get it either. What was the point of it all? None of it made any sense, which only made it an infinite cycle of ignorance, nothing to be done about it. Whatever the case, Nikki insisted that playing the 'boyfriend card' wouldn't be of much use in discouraging the masses. Well, luckily he didn't intend to use that. "I'll just have to make with the hands then, won't I? Wouldn't be the first time. Just make sure you've got my back when I've got woman hands I've no clue how to use." With the continuation of banter came the realization that there was very little space between them, and naught but a blanket and a few articles acting as barriers beyond that. The short sentences offered by Nikki prior to that nod of hers were phrased interestingly, leaving Ozzy in a situation of having only one type of rebuttal. "I'm sure you will. I can definitely say, you've got 'able to take care of Ozzy' written all over you, head to toe," he said cheekily while scanning the lass up and down. The grin on his face wasn't going anywhere; it never did. Once more though, it was somewhat... evolved from the casual teeth-baring he did.

[Apollymi]

Oh even in these casual moments, some of their conversations seemed far too serious. But it wasn't the sort of seriousness she felt the need to avoid. Instead, Nikoleta found herself rather easily falling right into it. She truly looked forward to seeing the sort of thing Ozzy picked out for her to wear, she truly had enough patience to wait and see. "Fine fine. Since you promise, I'll wait like a kid waits for Christmas. None too silently while pouting!" she declared. They were having fun, she couldn't deny this... and what else as there. Apparently later in the night she'd be receiving a pepperoni pizza. She was asked about cheese crust. "Pizza is almost pointless without cheese crust. Never worked up the courage for a beer cheese dip though..." she admitted. Trying new side items was hard when you had your established favorites. "And nobody turns down a pint of Guinness, I definitely don't mind it," she explained of her general tastes. For pizza she preferred beer, wine with steak dinners and spirits for nights out on the town that she thought it might be best to forget. Nothing wrong with any of that to Nikki who truly acted like a 'normal lass'.

Ozzy claimed he'd simply have to make with the hands... how very interesting. She looked at him now and didn't doubt that he'd just randomly throw a punch to discourage some random man from hitting on her. Should she discourage such behavior? Ah, but it was kind of hot knowing someone would stand up for you like that... When did that become an idea? Probably around the time that Ozzy had mentioned it as an option. "I probably shouldn't like the idea of that..." she mentioned rubbing a hand against her face. She was still really close to him. It'd be nothing to slip over and make herself more comfortable. "And not to worry, I got your back. If you become a girl, your outfit will have pockets big enough for your bear mace." Yes, she still hadn't let go of the pockets problem. Ah, but such a playful outburst wouldn't be allowed to stand for very long. Ozzy was claiming she had the ability to take care of him, written all over her person. And he was doing so while bearing that grin. There was something about it though, which made Nikki squirm a little. She felt rather suddenly like she was on the menu for whatever reason. "Blimey, I don't know how I'm suppose to take that any sort of way, when you're looking at me like that..." she mentioned. Oh but she hadn't moved at all, was it too soon to pursue such a thing?

[Bloodedge]

The moment she compared her wait to that of a child at Christmas, Ozzy knew precisely what she meant. Her following words only confirmed as much, bringing up the trademark pout of such children during the holiday season. "Don't go pouting on me now. There's no telling what'll happen if you do, but it'll probably be distracting as all hell." Firm and true were Ozzy's words, though the idea of a pout on that face of hers was intriguing to say the least.

Pepperoni was a mandatory pizza topping, and much like himself, Nikki believed there was no point without cheesy crust. "You can say that twice," he commented as Nikki went on to mention never trying the beer cheese. That admission left Ozzy scratching his cheek, slightly abashed by his own guilty pleasure. "Well... it's meant for pretzels, but what's cheesy crust if not the same as cheesy pretzels? Not gonna lie though, it'll fat you quick. Bloody addictive, that is." Guilty pleasure may not have been the word. If not for his sister slapping the diet back into him, he would've once gone on a binge of pizza crust and beer cheese. That was a slightly embarrassing time for him, but it was all in the past... mostly.

Strange food choices aside, they were still on the even stranger topic of his magical gender swap. Well, there was a brief segue into the idea of Ozzy having to fight off those who thought themselves suitors to Nikoleta. "I probably shouldn't like it either, but I didn't work out to not be able to knock a guy flat. I mean, I don't plan on going out looking for a fight... but this smoke is free, know what I'm saying?" Aside from all that, apparently bear mace was the key to defense for womenfolk. Noted. What a shame, though. "Damn, bear mace? I thought I could get into a good old-fashioned scrap and start pulling some tracks out or sommat. Might do best to watch my nails though─" he commented, that unwavering gaze never seeing an alteration even whilst he spoke of such random things. Nikki had taken note of his particular stare, and thought to speak on it. Taking her chin into his hand, he raised a curious brow. "While I'm looking at you like what?" was the question he thought to present. Perhaps some common fool would believe he didn't actually know the answer already. . .

[Apollymi]

Oh? Pouting would be distracting would it? Well, she hadn't on purpose tried to pout since her actual childhood, but she could make an exception to let Ozzy see such a thing. "Bloody hell, you're really just giving it away. You're gonna look up and I'll be pouting about some random thing just to see what happens~" she mused. The truth of the matter was, she would potentially do this, because playing such games of chicken with Ozzy were becoming a supreme source of fun for her. It simply didn't seem like it could end badly. "Oh? Is that it, the godly man's body falls to beer cheese and cheesy crusts~" she stated noting his abashed face. Technically speaking she was no different. A huge fan of pasta and bread who literally couldn't say no to such dishes. She was just as likely to fat herself as she was to fat him. "I mean, if I have to choose a way to be fatted, good chips or bread would totally do it for me~" she mentioned of her own tastes.

And then there was the matter of fighting. Ozzy claimed he also shouldn't like it, and that he wasn't looking for fights. He was simply ready whenever they presented themselves. "Luck favors the prepared, so I can't fault you. Better to be able to drop someone than have to drag yourself off after getting beaten up..." she said with a gentle nod. She'd seen that sort before, those who looked for trouble typically couldn't handle it when it finally showed itself. Whatever the case, bear mace and girl fights were apparently not all that hyped up. "Yeah, girl fights aren't fun," she said with a curt nod. Of course, soon enough all that conversation was abandoned. For what, one might ask? Well for Ozzy reaching her chin with his hand, managing to look innocently curious about another sentence she'd spoken. What did he look like exactly? "You bloody well know, that grin and that shift... you're looking at me like I'm the next course of your breakfast... Ozzy," she said. She'd spoken these words while staring at this man. Yep, she'd done it again. Entranced herself staring into his eyes, that golden sheen had to be some trick of the light. Why else would they look like golden pools filled to the bottom? It really wasn't fair for him to be like this.... he was definitely capable of distracting her with just a look, she could already feel it, that gentle need to shift. The desire to fall into his warm body and stare into those giant eyes. He was already shirtless to boot. And poor Nikoleta's mind was already wandering straight into strange places.

[Bloodedge]

Oliver may have given consideration to making a mission of seeing her pout. A bit of teasing here and there, and he could probably accomplish something. No, that wouldn't count; it would have to be something natural to really make an impact. "I'll be on lookout, yeah? You'll see what happens when it comes up," he declared. Now then, maybe they could move right past the matter of his weakness for certain unnecessary food combinations. No? Not quite, but Nikki had her own foods worth mentioning. He could agree on a good basket of chips and some bread being food choices of high value, in terms of tastiness. Oh, someone was going to wind up very angry one day. Just over 24 hours into meeting one another, they'd been through two meals and discussions of various not-so-healthy choices. "Bloody hell, I'm gonna have a massive cheat day coming up soon, aren't I? Chips, thick crust pizza, beer cheese... more chips. I love chips─"

Once more, it was made clear that there was a lack of issue taken with the idea of fighting random people who stepped a bit out of bounds. Once more, Ozzy took mental note of something for the future. It would have been a bit depressing to end up in a fight somewhere in the future, only for it to be off-putting to Nikki. Now, he didn't have to think about pansying out in a moment of passion. Speaking of passion, there was currently the matter of Ozzy's expression, brought into question by the man himself. Was he looking at her as if she were the next course of his breakfast? Well, of course he was... but he also wasn't. "Am I? That's not quite right, is it?" he responded, seeming to fancy a bit of teasing already. "It's about noon now. That's almost lunch, innit? Besides, I think that feeding tube people get on life support lasts way longer, so I'll take that instead. Meals are too quick."

[Apollymi]

It seemed that Ozzy would be on the lookout for that particular face made by Nikki. It was kind of a shame but there were very few things that caused pouty behavior from this particular young woman. "Sure thing, I'll be on the look out for this response~" she mentioned seeming to be in a good mood about it regardless. As topics shifted to terrible eating habits, it seemed that Ozzy would be counting this food as a massive cheat day for himself. He did nothing but agree with the goodness of bread, cheese and beer and seemed to look forward to its consumption. "Aren't we both... ugh I could almost regret it because of the guilty work out afterwards... but, it's always worth it in the moment~" she agreed without hesitation.

Strangely enough though, the extensive eye contact and flirting also never stopped. Ozzy was holding her chin looking in her face and stating that there as a little bit wrong in how she interpreted the view he was taking over her. She listened to him, and his voice hit her ears as a tease. He had no idea what kind of power such a thing had over her. Her brows drew together in mock confusion... "Bloody hell it isn't..." she said. Oh, apparently she wasn't just a piece of his former meal, or his next. Instead she was likened to something like a feeding tube, something of permanence and great importance. How very interesting such an analogy was, "Blimey, you're really good at that..." she mentioned. Ozzy was showing himself to have an uncanny ability at making her feel like she was literally the most important thing to him. His words made her feel as if she was already a staple in his life something he simply couldn't be without. She'd never felt so important to any individual but somehow she couldn't bother to feel anything other than elated by his words. He wanted to savor her, for her to be part of him... how did anyone actually say no to something like that? It wasn't really possible was it?

[Bloodedge]

At this point, it was only a matter of time before their random bouts of indulgence became one related to food as opposed to... well, each other. Of course, there was no saying with any amount of certainty that it wouldn't be both options in the end, but that was a matter for when the time came. At that time, they could share in the misery and satisfaction of eating far too much junk food while cheating on any sort of diet or workout regimen. "Cheers to cheat day. I know just what you mean, but what's the point of working out and eating healthy if you're not gonna enjoy a day of doing the exact opposite? It can't just be me who thinks like that, right? Right?"

As Ozzy cupped the lass' chin, his fingers remained ever so slightly mobile. There was constantly just a bit of a caress coming from his forefinger as it curled around the curve of Nikki's jawline. Meanwhile, his eyes locked onto her lips, following their movement as she spoke. "Am I?" he asked. Ozzy knew he was good at... well, most things. Even so, it remained pleasant to hear that Nikki herself thought so. "That means yes, right? That's alright with you?" he asked, letting his thumb swipe over that lip Nikki was always so fond of chewing on. How very soft and... assaultable it was. How was he even resisting it right now? Well, he had greater plans, and patience was a virtue.

[Apollymi]

Cheers to cheat day indeed. There truly was no point in abstaining from anything if you weren't going to try and enjoy it under the right circumstances. Nikki took such a lesson to heart a long time before now, so anything she indulged in, even in passing she properly enjoyed. This was especially true of people, food and random activities. "Naw, mate. You definitely aren't alone in that... no point in holding back sometimes if you aren't gonna have a great time, ever so often~" she mentioned. She was the kind of person who indulged when possible, but abstained when necessary.

Speaking of indulgence that hand upon Nikki's chin was doing something strange to her. Here she was, carrying on a normal conversation, while a gentle finger caressed her jawline. The gaze of those eyes even shifted downwards lightly. Where was he looking? At her lips of course... and how could she reply to that and the question presented to her? "Not even a proper question, you know that..." she said softly. His thumb gently brushed across her lips and she licked them soon afterwards. She knew he was looking but couldn't help the reaction. Oh? Another question, it meant yes? Was it alright? These were barely questions worth registering in her head. She wouldn't be turning him down. Just staring at him like this in close proximity stirred her a bit. What would it be like this time? She wondered... aggressive as the first time? Slow as the morning? Hot and passionate? Gentle and soft? Possibilities were endless and she was more than apt to find out. "Yes, of course it means yes. It's definitely more than alright, Ozzy."

[Bloodedge]

Gone were the talks of food, future indulgences, and the strain such things would be on any fitness routine or diet. While it was a fun little chat filled with enjoyment for one such as Ozzy, there was a gaping hole in the possibility of keeping it up for too long. That hole was... Nikki, of course. It was as if the longer he gazed upon said hole, the larger it got, until it was massive enough that he couldn't avoid falling right into it. Oliver could have avoided said expansion by not staring for so long at once, but why the hell would he waste a chance to treat his eyes? Doing so could only be considered an even greater benefit when it resulted in further treats for the rest of him.

His question wasn't much of a question at all; he knew that. The point of it all wasn't to receive an answer, but to get under the young woman's skin in a way that could be considered positive. He seemingly managed as much, to his satisfaction. "Doesn't need to be." Nikoleta licked her lips after the briefest contact of his thumb, and the need to refrain became a thing of the past. Everything was more than alright with her; it had been for quite some time now. Even so, he could never tire of hearing it. "Good. I'd hate for it not to be," he said as finally, one jut forward brought his lips into contact with hers. He hadn't yet released her chin, but he'd been waiting long enough to attack that his forward momentum wasn't stopping by the time he reached his goal. No, no, he didn't have it in him to stop until the blanket draped over them fell, and Nikki was left beneath him as his lengthy form stretched over her body.

[Apollymi]

The tension between this pair of individuals was rising quite high. And Nikoleta couldn't be happier about it. She felt it might be possible some time in the future for every little conversation not to nudge itself in this direction but right just now... Her food had settled, she was relaxed... they'd had a nice chat, and now her eyes were distracted by the view of him. He was still saying things, and she could hear them as her eyes traveled over his face and down his body. He knew his question wasn't really one, he was just trying to get her to talk... she figured this out but still couldn't stop herself. Who was she not to offer a man like this what he wanted when his wishes were so simply fulfilled? He would have hated not to hear that everything was alright... of course, she'd let him know whatever he wanted, later of course. Because right at the moment he had closed the distance between them, pressing their lips together with a great deal of ease. But his forward momentum didn't stop with their faces, either. Nikki found herself with her back against couch cushions as his body stretched out above hers. What an interesting sight that had to be, too bad all she was seeing was the insides of her eye lids as she relaxed immediately into these new motions. This shirtless man was closing the gap between them and she couldn't help but look forward to it. Her own body shifted to allow him to occupy that open space her leg at the outside of the couch slightly lifted as she found comfort in this meeting of bodies and mouths.

Oh... it was starting up again. That pounding sensation in her chest was headed towards a fever pitch. There was also that longing sensation between her legs, this man's presence did terribly good things to her body. One of her hands would be found resting against his chest, if only for a moment until she aimed to instead wrap that arm around his neck and pull him in closer. Never would this lad have to question whether or not she wanted him. Nikki always wanted to be perfectly clear about her desires when it came to him... and she wasn't quite sure when she decided that.

[Bloodedge]

Nikki's desire to be clear was executed to perfection. Ozzy's own desires were always worn on his sleeve, and there was Nikki, tugging at the end of that sleeve to show an interest in the same thing. Body language alone screamed her interest into his mind's ear. Quickly as they moved, her legs didn't have to spread around him. The hand upon his bare chest didn't push to deter him at all. Most importantly, she seemed ever so... relaxed. Excellent. No words needed speaking to prove anything here; all the pair needed was to experience one another in whatever way their minds and bodies demanded at the time. Of course, demands of the body often overtook those of the mind... or perhaps they were one and the same in some instances.

He had a free hand that needed occupying, but he wasn't in a rush of any sort. Casually, that hand slipped its way under Nikki's top. Palm and fingers gently slid their way up the young woman's abdomen, her shirt lifting only due to the interference of his arm against its resting place. Eventually though, this came to a stop as his hand found its resting place upon Nikki's bosom, cupping over her breast while lips continued to smack against each other. There wasn't a particular slowness to this approach, nor was there the aggressiveness of their earlier bout. This time around, Ozzy simply seemed to be partaking in some comfortable exploration. He'd gotten out all of his built-up desires, he'd done what he could to solidify his place from what he could tell, and now... now he could simply enjoy as nature intended.

[Apollymi]

By Ozzy's motions alone Nikki knew her intentions here and now were clear. What was more, there seemed to be no rush, but also no purposeful slowness. Both of them seemed ready enough to take their current adventure at whatever pace their whims dictated and Nikki was just fine with that. Even as their lips smacked together and her jumper started to shift ever so gently, she could do nothing but enjoy herself. Ozzy's hands moved casually up her body to rest against and cup her bosom. The smallest of moans escaped her at the action but she did nothing more than relax into it. Strange though it was, Nikki never felt more comfortable than she did in Ozzy's presence. She spent no time at all hung up on the idea that she wasn't enough for him, because he practically shouted that she was everything to him every time he spoke of her. There was something oddly romantic about that as an idea.

In a moment of closeness like this, Nikki ran her tongue over Ozzy's bottom lip before biting it gently instead of her own. She aimed to find comfort in this make out session as her hands explored the expanse of skin which was his upper body. He was so well muscled how could she do anything but appreciate him? This man truly couldn't understand how interesting he was as an entity to her. Perhaps he would eventually. Right now though, she explored him, from the comfort of the space beneath him. The heat of her body building up slowly as she heard the pounding of her own heart beat in her ears. Maybe she should have questioned how they ended up this far in, but she could hardly ignore her desire to find out more.

[Bloodedge]

That pounding heart being heard in Nikki's ears was also being felt by the hand of Ozzy as his hand engulfed her breast, even as it moved about in a somewhat lackadaisical circle. That little moan thrown into the mix brought an upward curl to his lips while they were pressed against Nikki's. Ozzy thought to let loose his tongue and invade the lass' mouth, but just as he was prepared to do so, he gained a sensation other than what he already had from her wandering hands. His bottom lip was wetted not by Nikki's lip, but by her tongue. He supposed there would be a chance to unleash his own tongue, but then, his lip was abruptly taken between Nikki's teeth. How unexpected and... interesting. Playfully, he decided to lap at her top lip while she did this.

Of course it wasn't long at all before some part of Ozzy was on the move again. In this case, his first hand to move finally left Nikki's chin, reaching out to take her elevated leg by the thigh. He'd hold it against his side, he'd rub it to no foreseeable end, and he'd use it as leverage to maintain his overall positioning. There was a shortage of space between them, and Ozzy sought to create even less by interlacing their lower halves at an absolute minimum. Neither of them would be questioning the developments taking place here, nor did it seem either of them would be stopping anything anytime soon. Oliver certainly wouldn't. No matter what the topic of discussion was with Nikki, even if the conversation wasn't had with words, he only wanted... more.

[Apollymi]

Ozzy and Nikki were entwined in something rather interesting. The feeling of his hand upon her chest, rubbing in a rather lax circle. She felt that little upcurve of his lips when they pressed against hers. Oh, that was something very interesting for her as well, since she teased his mouth in such a strange way, she was teased in return. His lapping at her top lip, seemed to bring a smile to her face as well.

What was more, Ozzy was on the move as well. His hand moved from her chin, and took hold of her leg. Another gentle moan would leave her lips as he rubbed against that thigh seemingly without aim. It presented an interesting amount of sensation to Nikki and she remembered in this moment the other goodness of Yoga Pants being that light fabric rubbing against her now. Still, as Ozzy interlaced their lower bodies and closed more space between them, Nikki continued her exploration of his face and neck. Her lips shifted from against his to leaving a trail of gentle kisses along his jaw and down to his neck. With no real space between them she allowed herself the comfort of tracing over his pulse with her tongue. All the while those hands of hers began to dip ever lower down his body. He was only wearing those shorts wasn't he? Well, as her fingers traced along his waistband she figured she was sure to find out, well not just yet.

[Bloodedge]

Wearing more than shorts? Why would Oliver bother doing anything pointless like that. Given the previous day, they were liable to start exploring each other at any given moment. With that, there was no logical reason to throw on too many layers and make things more difficult than they needed to be. Hell, he'd only put on shorts for the sake of starting the stream. Now, the only thing keeping them on was the fact that he couldn't back away from Nikki for a moment─ by his own choice, of course. That didn't stop her, though. The lass seemed to have no issue letting her hands wander lower down the length of his torso until she located his waist. There, she would soon find the truth, while Ozzy found euphoria sent through his neck via the lass' mouth. The smell of breakfast was sent into the air around them as Ozzy heaved a sigh. He took a moment to shift his hand to one side, cupping her breast in a slightly different manner to tease her nipple with the tip of his thumb. All the while, his hastening breath took in the scent of her hair. What sort of shampoo was in use here? Whatever it was, it was a lovely smell, he thought. What if he took it by the roots? Maybe that one was a better thought for later, but it was a thought nonetheless. Ozzy found himself often plagued with thoughts of what he could, and likely would, do around this woman.

[Apollymi]

There truly wasn't much point in wearing an extreme amount of clothing, well aside for dressing for weather conditions. Nikki realized this at the moment she couldn't wait to get this man out of what little he had on. Of course, there was no rush, her exploration around his waist line had her following the line of his waist back to his hips. Her finger tips slipped into his shorts and across his bottom. Such a thing provided her with dual confirmation, he definitely was only wearing these shorts and... he had a really nice arse. Seriously, if she wasn't currently caught up in nibbling and sucking on that spot she'd found while buried in his neck, she might have expressed proper jealousy.

Well, no matter, her mouth would soon be separated from where it was, if only because Ozzy's hand took new position on her breast. Brushing over the peak found there with his thumb, a rush of sensation trickled over her skin. Her back arched upwards, afterwards causing that sweater to slip further up her body. Goosebumps broke out over the exposed flesh of her abdomen as she all but squirmed under this lad's attention. She wanted out of her jumper, but she wasn't in much of a rush. A gentle moan left her mouth, the breath of which danced over the skin of his neck so recently abandoned.

[Bloodedge]

Oh, it seemed both of them had made an interesting discovery on this little expedition. While Nikki was discovering the accuracy of his backside's quality, Ozzy was discovering another sensitive spot of hers. She'd best be careful, lest he bring her every weakness to light in a 24-hour time period. That arch appearing in Nikki's back brought their torsos in contact with one another, allowing the lad from Blackpool to feel that goosed flesh against his own abdomen. How titillating. "Gotcha," he said softly, directly into the woman's ear.

Another pass over that nipple proceeded a greater movement of Oliver's. This time around, he slipped downward. It was to be quite the long journey that began with a simple tongue flick of the ear, a kiss on the cheek, another to the neck, and then a slowed descent down her torso. He still wouldn't rid her of that jumper; there was no point in wasting a slightly disheveled visage after all. There was, however, much purpose in diving face-first into her abdomen, where his lips would peck skin slowly every few seconds. Just as there were a few seconds to space each kiss, there were a few kisses to space each lick, which themselves each spaced a gentle blow. She angled this part of herself toward him, so surely this was what she wanted, right? Well, if not... it was too late to say otherwise by now, wasn't it?

[Apollymi]

There was no amount of careful, that Nikki could be in this case, contrary to alternative beliefs. She was an exceedingly honest individual, and every little layer that Ozzy managed to unravel was on his own merit. To be honest, Nikki was surprised herself, she never really intended to hand herself over to anyone as much as she was showing herself to Ozzy right at the moment. Oh well, if anything went wrong, perhaps it would be the right idea to take her sister up on the offer of dumping his body. Yeah, that sounded like the proper end if anything went awry this time.

But there was nothing going awry at all. In fact, that little comment about getting her cause nothing but a smile to spread across her face. In fact as more and more kisses were spread down her body she eventually had to let go of his bottom as he moved down. A gentle sound of protest escaped the lass but was replaced immediately by a moan as his lips and tongue made their way down his body. "Ah~ Ozzy..." she said ever so softly. She couldn't really tell him anything in particular, she didn't want him to stop and her hands shifted up his perfect back and spread across his broad shoulders. What else was he going to discover about her this day? What else could he even do to her? Did it matter? As her hand spread across his upper back and torso she couldn't find any reason to do anything but continue. So she would. Only a gentle shift in her body taking place as she all but surrendered completely.
