Chapter 4 - playmates (Selkie)

They’re playmates, in a way, and Corrin can’t deny that she treasures the time she gets to spend with Selkie. Growing up, she didn’t have a lot of time for playing, or anyone nearly as playful as the kitsune to keep her company, so even though she knows she should feel too old for this, she enjoys it so much. The two of them have gotten so close that they’ve become like inseparable friends, and Corrin couldn’t be happier.

The time she spends with Selkie helps take her mind off her regular problems, and even when they’re just running around outside together, it makes a world of difference. One day, Selkie shows up to her room, ready to play some more, and Corrin is happy to let her in.

“I know we didn't have any plans, but I just couldn't wait anymore!” Selkie exclaims. “So? Can we play, right now?”

Corrin isn't busy, so she grins and says, “Yeah, of course! What do you want to play?”

“Wrestle me? I've got so much energy built up and I'm ready to go!”

She thinks about it for a moment, before deciding nothing can go too terribly wrong as long as they keep their powers in check, and so she agrees to the impromptu match. Selkie pounces without much warning, and Corrin struggles to maintain her footing as she squares off with the other girl. The two of them seem pretty evenly matched at first, and even when Selkie manages to tackle her to the ground, Corrin fights back and the two are soon rolling around, giggling as they battle for the top.

It's just good, innocent fun, until it isn't anymore, but Corrin doesn't even notice the shift at first. She doesn't pay any mind to how hot she's getting all over, or how fast her heart is beating, or how flushed Selkie is. It isn't until Selkie pins her with a triumphant grin that she feels the strange pressure between her legs, that she begins to understand what's happening to her.

And then Selkie’s face shifts and she's blushing harder, her lips slightly parted as she stares down at the princess. Corrin's chest feels so tight she can hardly breathe, and all she can do is ask herself when she started feeling this way about Selkie, and why she didn't notice before now.

“I win,” the kitsune says, but there's something different to her voice. She bites her lip, staring down at Corrin with confusion plain on her face, and she doesn’t seem sure of herself as she speaks, asking, “Can I...kiss you now?”

The question is certainly not what Corrin is expecting, and she knows she needs to think more before she responds, but all she can think about is how much she suddenly wants that, more than anything. And how, perhaps, she might want even more than that, and how she gets the feeling that Selkie wants the same. She nods, and in an instant, the other girl's lips are covering hers.

Corrin has never actually kissed anyone before, and she gets the impression that Selkie hasn’t either, but there’s nothing uncomfortable about this. Perhaps it’s just because they have the same amount of experience, and therefore, nothing to compare it to, but to the princess, it’s wonderful. But it also doesn’t do anything to alleviate the heat between her legs, and she can feel her desires continuing to grow. When Selkie lets out a soft, needy moan into the kiss, she hopes that that means the girl is feeling the exact same thing.

She breaks the kiss, face now completely red as she breathes heavily, and she says what could be the most predictable, cliche thing to say in such a situation. “I have a new game I want to play…”

“I want to play too,” is all Corrin says, and Selkie doesn’t hesitate, her face brightening as she works to get Corrin out of her clothes. They’re both operating purely off vague ideas, but she doesn’t seem to have any concerns at all, and when her lips first touch one of Corrin’s bare nipples, the princess lets out a much louder cry than intended.

“Is that good?” Selkie’s voice is muffled against her chest.

“Y-yeah, I like that…” she replies breathlessly. Selkie gets back to it, pressing her lips back down, but this time, she begins to suck at Corrin’s breast, and Corrin whimpers, shivers of pleasure rolling through her body. She rolls her tongue over her nipple, and that causes Corrin to cry out again, squirming underneath the kitsune.

Things have escalated so quickly that it’s hard now to chart how they got from point A to point B, and harder still to predict where they will end up once this part is all over. All Corrin can think right now is how much she’d like to keep doing this, and how she wouldn’t mind at all if Selkie were something more than her friend. Selkie’s lips begin to trail lower, and then she can’t think much about what they are or what they’re going to be at all.

She shakes as she Selkie nestles her head between her legs, and putting her hand on her head is an afterthought, though Selkie has always appreciated being petted. Selkie makes an appreciate noise as she buries her tongue within her, and it’s hard for Corrin not to pull her hair, to keep petting her gently, as she’s overwhelmed by the sensation.

For someone with no experience, the kitsune still seems to know what to do, perhaps because she’s also a girl and knows what she would like, or perhaps just because of some sort of instinct. Corrin can’t really figure it out in her current state, writhing as Selkie traces shapes inside of her, until she knows that she can’t take anymore, that she’s on the edge now.

It’s not like she’s never come before, but what she’s done on her own and what she’s experiencing with Selkie are two entirely different things. She loses her senses completely for a moment as she’s driven over the edge, crying out the name of the other girl breathlessly, desperately. It’s completely and totally overwhelming, and even as it fades to a light pulsing, she can still hardly breathe, and Selkie just grins up at her like she’s the most proud person in the world.

“That means I did a good job, right? Right?”

“Mhmm,” Corrin says happily.

“You’ve always been my favorite person to play with,” says Selkie, almost shyly. “I always want to be with you…”

It’s a confession that Corrin supposes she should have expected, but it still surprises her to hear her say it so plainly. Still, she says, “I love playing with you too, and I want to be with you.”

“Then we’re going to be playing a lot more! Yay!”

“So...do you want to do that again?” she asks. “But this time, the other way around?”

“I think that sounds like fun!”

The thing Corrin loves about Selkie is how simple and fun everything is with her, and as she thinks that, she realizes that she does love Selkie, and even something that should be complicated seems just as simple and fun as everything else.
