[ and during one of those doze sessions he might find himself in a bit of a different position, because she seems to have changed back. she's naked, of course, and her tentacles are still out and lazily draped over seto, but she's slowly starting to come too, because of their ( now ) kind of awkward positioning. ]
[The Charm effect begins to wear off, too, and as he drifts closer to consciousness and realizes where they are, confusion and annoyance rises up and makes him jerk fully awake.]
[ she looks at him for a brief moment and then down at the ground, seeing if she can't focus and remember some of what happened... but the fact that he's naked is kind of a distraction. ]
[Perhaps he should have considered how he was going to explain this ahead of time. Perhaps he should have considered a lot of things about this ahead of time.]
In the scenario we created, I believe so, since what triggered the change was my body's reaction to the cold, then getting it back to normal or better can reverse it. Or maybe it's just... when that side of myself is completely calm. [ clears her throat. ]
And even if I could have changed back earlier I doubt it would have let me.... [ doesn’t dwell on that point specifically. she can recall the possessiveness. ] and charm may have had to wear off too. [ there are so many factors in play. ]
I remember some of what happened and, ah, ...you know how charm works differently person to person and, uhm, monster to monster, well I just kind of get the feeling that I wouldn’t have been able to compete with the strong possessive feelings that it had for you at the time. [ so maybe calming down and charm wearing off *is* more accurate. god, her head hurts from thinking about this. ]
[Climbs off her awkwardly once she begins to shift, moving to properly gather his clothes this time.]
A few things. I didn't... execute the exact tests I had planned. But certainly the charm removed all hostility and made you very protective of me, which is good. The, ah... more specific desires for my pleasure... are less applicable to monsters that aren't you, I imagine.
[Or, he hopes? Hopefully charming a bunch of dungeon enemies wouldn't just result in a possessive monster gangbang]
No? ...h- heh. [ sits up and rubs the back of her neck. ] Protective is good. Like, ah, real good. [ her cheeks are pink going on red. ] I'm not surprised about charm, it's one hell of an ability... [ she trails off, nodding. ]
Do you know what, uhm, happened to spur on the- no, it's not too normal. It only started happening recently. [ looks back at him. ] I don't remember a lot. It was kind of like an out of body experience.
...sounds like it. Maybe to prevent something like that from happening again I could be, I don't know, bound beforehand, though... then triggering it might be difficult, and this is assuming you'd even want to try again. It kind of sounds like you got the information you needed, so it might not really be necessary. Like, charm works, basically. [ don't mind the rambling. ]
If you're bound it defeats the purpose. There's no point if you can't show your natural reactions. But it's true I think I accomplished what I'm going to.
[...]
Of course, if you have other things you need to test, that's another matter.
[a moment of silence as he contemplates whether admitting to having been out of control or having deliberately not done the thing he intended is worse and ultimately decides on the latter]
...You must have Charmed me as well. It seemed... less compelling, than the other option.
Though you were clearly willing to attack anything that moved for me, so it would be less of an issue of that and more of being able to follow commands.
I knew I could Henshin, but Charm is news to me. Not as surprising as it probably should be though. [ thinks about this for a few moments. ] And I'm sure the following commands part is going to be... difficult. [ she's heard she's kind of an idiot, so she doesn't have much faith in herself. when she was with kohime she had apparently gotten tangled in a bench. gg. ]
[there's a split second before he responds, but then something eases and he returns it aggressively, drawing her close for a moment, then breaking away but not letting her go]
[ she doesn't mind the aggression. in fact, it's kind of a turn on. she's content to keep close to him, her hand on his chest, following the kiss. ] ...worried about what? [ him? yeah, maybe a little. it's not like she doesn't think him capable, but she also doesn't want to be responsible for mauling him, because she does like him. ]
