Looking up from underneath, fractured moonlight on the sea

the intimate bathing meme;



Grooming is an important part of many species' rituals. It keeps them clean, healthy, and content. And a good bath? It can change the whole tone of a day from terrible to relaxed and blissful.

But nudity is sometimes viewed as a weakness - and it is almost always sexualized - so bathing is often kept a private matter. If you do share these moments with someone, they're almost always a significant other or a sexual partner.

Like you're doing now.

Whether it be after a battle or after sex (or before sex or DURING sex, even), the two of you are going to get clean. Be sure to help each other out with that, won't you? After all, there are places on the back that just can't be reached...

HOW TO PLAY:
  • Comment with your character, your prefs, etc.
  • If there are other grooming-related practices or kinks you'd like to include, like shaving, hair washing, mention them!
  • Reply to others!

"Please hold still," Iroha murmurs. He knows the plant secretions on Akira's skin can drive any man or beast out of their mind with the need to scratch every inch of skin, but there is little he can do about that now. Not until the unfortunately prolific burrs can be nipped out, their hooked design a most effective defense, irritatingly simplistic in theory, but... The tip is so easily broken off whilst still trapped in the most inconvenient, embarrassing places.

Well. Not that Akira has any reason to be shamed over returning with burrs all over his body like a comically inept dog. Iroha hasn't laughed once! He has methodically handled this unforeseen incident and will save laughing his ass off until he has finished prying the damn things out of Akira's.

( there is no longer innocence to their love. gone is that first conscious breath on a spring morn, when dew has settled on the leaves, when the ghost of frost is clinging in the grass. there are days he wishes he could step back into that time before he knew the truth of her. when the love he had was soft and boyish, a resurrected corpse of his heart he'd thought long rotting beneath his ribcage, poisoning him with its dead blood.

grace left for new york. but she came back. and the love was never lessened, not ravaged by time or distance or betrayal. oh, she left her mark on him. her voice was a scar, the soft cadences of táim sínte ar do thuama settling in the air and on his skin and across his soul. christ, he loved her. and the past is past, and the future is theirs.

it came at the expense of a life. tommy's not forgotten that. nor grace. it torments her, and it's as if the shade of the man hangs over them. but there are small moments that belong to nothing else but them. sometimes they look at one another, and he imagines another life where the coin fell a different way. and perhaps he took her hand as they disembarked in new york, and perhaps they married there. and they lived. oh, did they live.

or perhaps this is the only life they could have ever had. and whatever future they're forging together is the only one they could ever make. and the spaces in between the moments are what defines them now.

she's sitting in their bed, the electric light casting her face all in stark shadows as she reads. and he bends down beside her, cups his hands in the hair that frames her face, a press of his mouth along the bridge of her nose. )


I've drawn us a bath.

( modern plumbing is still taking some getting used to. bless the dandy lord that lost his house gambling for being a modern sort of man about it. )
