10.3- Merlo

A couple of intense, energetic hours later, Merlo rolled over, giving a long look over her companion. 286 sat on the edge of the bed, still stark naked, lighting up one of those vapor-smoking devices she’d seen around. Merlo watched 286 silently, sitting there silhouetted against the Destiny’s ambient lighting, as she lit the long cylinder, inhaling deeply and then puffing out a long breath trailing a plume of translucent vapor.

She honestly thought 286 was attractive, despite the light scarring criss-crossing her body in places, despite the somewhat plain face, despite the seeming lack of empathy or care in her attitude. Even despite her gratuitous amount of height, which no person could possibly have a use for. There was just something about the woman that drew her in, and kept her attention.

Sex with her had been interesting, to say the least. To say that Prisoner 286 was dominant would be to understate the matter heavily. Merlo was pretty sure she had more than a few fingernail or bite marks for her suit to heal up, and she was… sore in a few places. But she found she liked the feeling. It was also just good to connect with someone like this again. It wasn’t like there was no one around she’d had any interest in, but nothing had ever come of it. Not that she’d really pursued it, anyway. So having someone come out of nowhere and, well, want her so deeply and aggressively, it made her feel pretty good. She could get used to this.

Merlo hoped she’d have time to. This trip would only last so long, after all. But she didn’t really want to ruin the moment by dwelling on that fact right now, so she did what she normally did and put such bothersome thoughts aside. She’d deal with it later, she told herself.

Merlo shivered slightly. She’d been pretty warm from the activities, but now that her body was no longer entwined with another, it was cooling down again. She didn’t want to summon her suit just yet, though. 286 looked back over her shoulder at the motion, slowly looking Merlo’s naked form over again. She grinned. “You cold, Merlo?” She drawled it out, sounding sarcastic or perhaps playfully mocking.

Merlo really liked something about the way 286 drawled out her name. She had no idea what it was, but it thrilled her a little each time 286 said it that way nonetheless. “Yeah. A bit.” Instead of reaching for the covers, however, she just snapped her suit back into place, the layers of nanoweave rushing from the port imbedded into her spinal column and sheeting over her exposed skin. Within the span of a second, she was securely clothed again, and the suit immediately began to regulate her body heat. Cold wasn’t a problem.

“Heh. That’s neat.” 286 shook her head in an almost disbelieving fashion and took another long drag from her vice.

“What?”

“Oh, just you and that suit. That shit’s pretty out there, you know? At first I thought you were just making it all up.
