[semicharmed]

[ Matt finds being normal and totally human to be overrated, if his soft sigh is anything to go by. He can't resist this melting quality to Wanda's relaxation--can't resist offering it in return, his own muscles going slack. His cheek tips to rest against her hair. ]

Hm. Thank you.

[ He sounds amused, but fond and--you guessed it--warm. He lets more of his weight rest against her, really sinking into the contact. ]

Not too warm?

[seeingscarlet]

[Wanda shifts so she's fully pressed against Matt and loosely drapes an arm over him. There, that's better. Somewhat. But he seems to be okay with being close to her.]

No. When I'm like this I don't make my own body heat, like a snake. I just have my Ruby, or a heater, or other people.

[semicharmed]

Ohh.

[ Matt feels slightly guilty for how good the air conditioning feels--how desperately relieved he is to be feeling it after hours in the unyielding heat. But Wanda feels good too. Her hair against his skin, her skin under his fingertips giving way to pebbling scales.

Maybe it's about balance, he decides, as he turns slightly towards her at the waist. Offering her more access to his evidently radiator-like body. ]

Well, I'm happy to be the other person, in that case. Share some warmth.

[seeingscarlet]

[Wanda snuggles closer quite happily. He's giving off a normal amount of body heat, but to someone who has suddenly become cold-blooded, it feels like she's curling up with a human-shaped heater. And his hands feel so good on her...

Now that the Gembonded have gotten used to Monster Week, Wanda's taken to not really wearing anything around her waist in the earlier days, and it's hot so she's not wearing very much clothing at all today. Aside from her breasts, he has pretty much free access to her.]

I know I promised you food, but will you stay a little longer?

[semicharmed]

[ Matt has managed to completely forget about offers of food, so a hint of surprise makes it through his comfortable tone as he answers, ] Oh. Yeah, I'd love to.

And honestly, I don't really wanna move right now.

[ One of Matt's hands is more or less pinned between them, which is always the way when you cuddle at this angle. The other is preoccupied with the line where snake-scales start to give way to soft skin. His fingertips brush from texture to texture, as if he hopes to gain some secret knowledge through the pads of his fingers.

Knowing him, he probably does. ]

I remember when I was a squid thing ... or, had squid limbs? The scales were kind of rough and nubbly.

Yours are a lot nicer.

[seeingscarlet]

[She makes a soft, pleased sound that is just shy of a moan. It's embarrassing but she just can't help it. This form leaves her extremely sensitive to touch in addition to craving warmth. How snuggly she is, of course, is more a matter of taste...]

Thanks? It would probably be even harder to get around if they weren't smooth. And not so comfortable for anyone I wrap up.

[semicharmed]

[ Matt's about to say something semi-silly about people getting wrapped up, but that sound Wanda makes short-circuits his brain a little bit.

For a moment, his hand stills. Then, gently, he repeats the touch that got the noise.

It's strange how certain things can remind him so strongly of home. Matt's on an alien planet. Wanda's powers are like his in some respects, but sharply divergent in others. She's got a snake tail. And yet, being on a couch with a beautiful woman he hasn't officially expressed attraction to makes him feel like he's back in college, feeling someone out while they sit on a sofa with plausible deniability. ​]

Wanda ...

[ As his head tips towards hers. ]

Would it be okay if I kissed you?

[ Well, Matt was never very good at the plausible deniability part. ]

[seeingscarlet]

[Wanda shivers, eyes closing, and unconsciously curls closer. For a moment she completely forgets her rather monstrous form, even though her lamia desires have given her an odd boldness. She just...wants. There's a kinship between them, between their magic, and Matt is sweet. And that's enough.]

Please.

[But she's not going to wait to make a move.]

[semicharmed]

[ Matt stretches to meet her as she moves. One hand curls around her, at the spot where skin gives way to scales; the other slips from between their bodies to find her arm. Matt cranes his neck and tips his head just so, just in time to catch Wanda's mouth with his own.

It's not a deep kiss, or at least he doesn't plan it that way. But he's curious, so curious, to reach out with the warmest, brightest, most vibrant pieces of himself, and see what chords they strike in her. This kiss, like all kisses, feels miraculous to him, like a door opening onto an undiscovered planet. So he's more than willing to linger here, letting his lips part softly under hers. ]
