And it's peaceful in the deep

[moosejuice]

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, 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!

[18+, discuss with me before replying with a Byleth, otherwise OTA. Definitely interested in one-sided or mutual grooming.]

[Sidon snuck out.

Many guards and tenders are usually around him prepared for his bathing time. Zora grooming was a very important ritual. Scales cleansed until shiny, claws trimmed and covered with imported oils, fangs brushed, an oreal.

The Zora prince wanted to bathe on his own feeling the heavy weight of the time passed hit him. He wanted some peace and quiet. The summer evenings that hit the Domain were comfortable but still warm, so the private indoor pools were an extra comfort. Some were a straight up hot spring. Like going to a spa.

The Domain had many public and private pools for bathing, but this one was his very favorite.

The pool was lined with what looked like jewels, it was large. The pool went from shallow to deeper, with a waterfall pouring in warm water. The water was shimmering, and Sidon floated in the center, letting his thoughts ease away for that one moment.

He didn’t tell anyone where he was going, or what he was doing.]

[ His fingers still smell like the pesto. The loaf is rising, a generous two hours to go — his attention turns, feet move a faithful rhythm to find Yusuf. The bathroom door is ajar, and Nicky leans against the door frame, arms folded. Cold water is often what they're left with, small kitchens, but he was pleased for the introduction of the tomato. It makes a lot of things easier, as does plumbing. ]

[ — He doesn't watch long, no, only as long as it takes for a smile, for breathing to catch a little, even now. It's a small miracle, but they're meant to be counted and known, each one. Cherished, each one. He never has to wait long — they have never had to wait — for their attention to settle on the other. Nicky moves towards him, reaching for his shoulders, thumb brushing over the shell of an ear. Patiently. ]

[Care for a lightsabers vs zombies cross-canon blend? Doesn't have to be shippy, I'd be just as happy with an awkward post-battle clean-up.]
