Massage Meme


Everyone could use a good massage now and again right? Well it's time to let you characters lay back and relax-- or maybe treat someone else to a little skin therapy. ;) Break out the oils and scented candles, it's time for a good rub down.

How to play:
❧ POST with your character (list their name & canon in the subject if you please)
❧ Others can reply giving the massage or recieving it.
❧ Use RNG to pick from the numbers below, or pick your numbers, or make something up!
❧ Have fun!

Type

001. Shoulder and Neck - the basic of the basic. Perhaps a strained shoulder, been sitting too long at their desk. Or maybe something even more strenuous. However, it's time to work out all those accumulated kinks.

002. Foot - It's time to give those yapping dogs a rest and treat them to a little TLC.

003. Hand - Hey don't forget about the hands, overworked constantly they could use a bit of a break.

004. Arm - Time to loosen up a bit and rub out those arm muscles.

005. Leg - Perhaps you're looking for something a bit more specific and intimate. Calve massage? Thigh? It's your choice.

006. Back - Considered a coup de grace of massage, the back massage, when done right, can bring extreme relief to those who receive it.

007. Scalp - Wanna feel those tingles down your spine? Maybe a little oil to help add health to the hair?

008. Full Body - Maybe it’s not just a specific area you want treated, but your entire body.

009. Wild Card - Anyway you want it. Mix and match, maybe I forgot something you want.


Relationship

001. Friend - getting a massage from a friend can be a wonderful bonding experience. And exacerbate already existing tensions ;D

002. Lover - Whether a show of care or a prelude to something more intimate, a massage from a lover is a very welcome thing.

003. Service - Hey some of us aren't so lucky. We gotta pay for this service.

004. Wild card - Whatever you want. However you want.

[As luck would have it, Cheria's just tied off the last of her patient's dressings as Brady finishes speaking, and she barely has time to process anything he's said before he's dragging her off.

Did he say she looks like "hell"? What's that supposed to mean?!]

Brady, no—! Stop it, I'm fine!!

[Siiiigh, here we go. :|]

[violin_tendencies]

Oh. Uh. Naga protect ya.

[Gotta say the blessing first. And now it's time to drag Cheria out to the next tent, which happens to be empty for the moment.]

C'mon, lie down and get your boots off. You've been on your feet all day. I can't heal exhaustion with magic, so the least I can do is rub 'em a little for ya before you go runnin' off again.

[And even though he says it like that, Brady's blushing just a bit.]

[lighthealer]

Oh, all right.

[She knows Brady well enough that arguing with him won't do anything but waste time. Time that could be spent, you know, working, so she relents, tugging off her boots and socks and making herself comfortable.

She won't admit it outright, but it does feel nice to lie down and take some weight off after a long day. The relieved sigh she lets out as her feet are freed, toes wiggling, speaks volumes. She doesn't even notice his blushing.]

[violin_tendencies]

That's better.

[This isn't the first time they've had an encounter like this, though it is the first time Brady's made an offer quite this... personal. He can't help but smile at the sight of her cute toes wiggling, and his voice softens.]

There ya go. Bet they're feelin' better already, huh? Gotta let 'em breathe, y'know.

[He chuckles a little to himself as he pulls up a chair to sit at the foot of her cot. And then, slowly and gently, he takes her foot in his hand and begins to rub little circles along the middle of her sole.]

Lemme know where they hurt the most, awright? They've gotta be all knotted up.

[lighthealer]

[This is far more personal and ... intimate than she's used to from Brady, yes; enough for her cheeks to turn a little pink as he works his magic. Even so, she can't help but close her eyes and relax. It just feels so nice.]

Brady, you really don't have to... mmm. [A soft, satisfied sound escapes her as his fingers move along the middle of her sole. Yeah, that's the spot.]

[violin_tendencies]

Don't hafta what?

[He can't help but chuckle again at her reaction. It's nice to know he's having such an effect on her, and so quickly.]

Mm... nice an' soft.

[Was that last part out loud?]

[lighthealer]

Go to so much trouble for me. I appreciate it, but...

[She trails off, partly just from feeling so content, except... wait, did he just—]

Soft?

[violin_tendencies]

Huh?

[Crap. It was out loud.]

N-never mind. Here, imma go a little harder now.

[Gotta distract from that awkward comment, so now that he's found a sore spot, he presses his thumbs in more firmly.]

[lighthealer]

[Honestly, it's pretty impressive that Cheria's feet are as soft as they are, considering how much time she spends on them all day every day.

She'd inquire further about his earlier comment, but—]

Oh... that feels really nice.

[Distraction acquired! A quiet, content moan escapes her, and her face immediately turns bright red.]

[violin_tendencies]

[Brady lets out an audible sigh of relief at that. He really didn't want to have to explain himself there. He's always had something of a soft spot for Cheria - that much is true - but on the list of ways to broach the subject, admiring the softness of her feet is pretty high up there on the embarrassing scale.]

Good. I'm glad. You deserve it, as hard as you've been workin' lately. Just lay back and relax.

[lighthealer]

[And Cheria would probably literally die of embarrassment if she ever realized what he meant by that.

Of course, the interest is mutual, but it's awkward and embarrassing, which are two things she doesn't deal with very well. That aside, there's no time for any of that when they're all at war out here.]

I don't deserve anything... I just want to help. And I enjoy it.

[Another sigh, and she wiggles her toes happily. It's nice to be taken care of like this for once.]

Remind me to repay you sometime, Brady.

[violin_tendencies]

[Brady is just a big ball of awkward. That will pretty much never change. It's probably another reason they get on so well, even if it's also the reason neither of them has ever confessed.]

Yeah, I get ya. Virtue is its own reward or somethin', right?

[He's pretty sure that was in one of his mother's many boring lessons. The mood is just starting to get relaxing until she mentions repaying him, and his brain immediately skips a beat.]

Ya don't gotta do that!

[Geez, she's too cute, smiling and sighing and wiggling her toes like that.]

[lighthealer]

Mmhmm.

[His reaction gets a giggle out of her. He's so earnest, it's sweet. And cute. He's so easily flustered. (So is she, but shhh.)]

I don't have to, but I want to! You work just as hard as I do; you deserve to be taken care of, too.

[violin_tendencies]

[And now a giggle. Brady is in heaven over here.]

Well... thanks, then.

[It's about all he can think of to say. He definitely doesn't want to brush her off when she's being so kind.]

But right now it's your turn, so make sure to enjoy it.

[Unable to resist, and now that he's done with the really sore spots, Brady moves his fingers up to gently roll her toes between them one at a time.]

[lighthealer]

[There's another giggle, as his rolling of her toes tickles juuuust a bit. Not that she minds.]

Anything for you, Brady.

[But now it's Cheria's turn to say something out loud that she didn't necessarily intend to; that comes out much more personal than she meant. The only difference is that she notices herself saying it, and she immediately stiffens, face still red.]

I-I mean— [Aaaah shit how does she recover from that ahhhh]

[violin_tendencies]

[That giggle is like music to his ears. He might even be lightening his touch just slightly to hear more of it and to see them wiggle around.]

H-huh?

[He was so caught up with her toes that it caught him off guard too. Did she really mean it like that?]

Ya really mean it, Cheria?

[And now he's squeezing her toes gently instead. Almost affectionately, really.]

[lighthealer]

[Annnnnd now it's time to look everywhere but at Brady. This is awkward. THIS IS SO AWKWARD.

He's still squeezing her toes, and his voice almost sounds hopeful. Or maybe she's just being optimistic?]

W-Well, I— [DEEP BREATH. She's still not looking at him, though.] O-Of course I do. You're important to me.

[violin_tendencies]

...You're important to me, too.

[And geez, if she isn't even going to look at him, how's he supposed to show it? But after letting that statement hang in the air for a long moment, Brady decides to lift her foot to plant a small kiss to the top of her toes.]

[lighthealer]

[This is embarrassing okay!!!

But after hearing him say that, and feeling him kiss the tip of her toes, she finally manages to bring her gaze back to him. She's still flushed, cheeks red and burning, but she looks happy to hear it.]

Brady? Really...?

[violin_tendencies]

[Brady smiles as she looks back at him. He was pretty sure giving her the princess treatment would work.]

Really. I don't go around kissin' just any girl's toes, y'know.

[He gives a little chuckle, trying to relieve some of the tension.]

[lighthealer]

[Of course it worked. Not that Cheria needs to be spoiled or anything, but a little affection goes a long way.]

You better not—!

[But she starts laughing, too, happy to see some of the awkwardness fading away.]

[violin_tendencies]

Nope, I promise. Why would I when I've got a cutie like you right here in front'a me?

[Brady's feeling completely relieved to have finally gotten all of this out in the open. Laughing along with her, he starts tickling her feet before leaning in to surprise her with a kiss - a real one, this time.]

[lighthealer]

[Cheria's so caught up in being tickled, giggling as she gently kicks at his hands, that she doesn't even notice him moving in for the kiss.

Stunned, she freezes up for a moment, but it's not long before she relaxes and... lets it happen. She lifts her hands and lets them rest on his shoulders, still feeling a little awkward but all too happy to return his kiss.]

[violin_tendencies]

[Brady hums happily against Cheria's lips as he kisses her back, lifting a hand to gently caress her cheek as the other continues to fondly rub and squeeze at her toes. He moves his body forward on his chair to try to get closer, inadvertently causing her foot to brush up against his inner thigh.]

Mmmmnnn- a-ah...

[lighthealer]

[Cheria leans forward, wrapping her arms around his shoulders and pulling herself closer. She smiles against his lips as he continues to squeeze her toes, and she wiggles her feet at him in response — only causing herself to innocently rub up against his thigh even more.

Oops?]
