[ Raven knows better than to keep moving once a guy starts to finish, usually it just gets uncomfortable ( or something ) - her enthusiasm made her first partner go 'ah, ah, ah, stop stop' once he started to finish, so. she knows it's not like how it is for a female. after the first time she comes, it feels good to keep going. but. so. she slows down a little bit once she feels him tense up under her, just a slow rock of her body against his. she gives it a little while before she finally lays down on top of him, her knees tucking close to support her weight as she buries her face against his neck. she kisses him softly, the feel of his pulse against her lips making her smile a bit. her fingers loosen from his, but she can't bring herself to let go just yet, not completely ]
[He keeps the fingers of one hand intertwined, while with the other he pushes through her hair slowly. He smiles vaguely up at the ceiling and breathes slowly. There's something fantastic about just lying here in the quiet with Raven, hearing her breathe, feeling the sweat cool on both their bodies.
But eventually he speaks, and says:]
That was . . . that was all right, then? For you, I mean?
[ ... okay, giggling isn't an ideal thing to do in bed either, but she's got this giddy, post-sex thing that she apparently can't shake, or hide, and her free hand moves to the side of his neck, just so she can pull him closer ( kind of ), kissing him a few more times before she answers ]
So, so, so much better than alright. Remus. [ like she can't believe he's even asking her. she bites his shoulder playfully ] I'd stay with you here all day if I could. Just so we can go again. And again, and again, and again. [ and she knows she should get off of him so they can clean up, but, maybe in a minute. after she's done kissing him- ]
Oh, I have rounds. And training. I can't skip out, only cause I promised to train with people, it's not just for me. [ she finally sits up then, settling back on his lap and oh he's still inside of her, soft now, but it still makes her hum a bit. her hands move to rest on his stomach, just so she can look at him with a ridiculous smile on her face, before she convinces herself to get up. ] C'mon, we need to wash up before we get too comfy. [ it's just gross, okay. might be a mood killer to get up before getting back into bed to snuggle, but she'd rather not wait ] Don't suppose you've got a spell for that too, huh?
[ her eyes go a little wide because oh, oh, that's- an interesting feeling. but she's glad for it, the simplicity, convenience, and she shakes her head before flopping back down on the bed next to him. and immediately curls up against his side. just so she can get right back to kissing him, this time along his shoulder. ]
To be perfectly, perfectly honest- [ kiss kiss ] - that really, genuinely was so much better than- anything I've felt before. Which might be just because I like you so much, but, really- [ kiss ] -I think it's because you can handle me in a way most people can't.
Handle me. ..Literally. Well, I mean. Handle what I put out, my aggressiveness, and you don't- you don't treat me like I'm fragile. Which, surprisingly, a lot of people do just in general. They used to at least, before I got here. [ but back home was different in a lot of ways, mostly in that she had to hide, no matter what. people just saw her as a very average girl without even a high school degree, or a real job. she wasn't anything to be intimidated by, and people treated her that way. passive, almost. and in a roundabout way, her love life wasn't any different. and! since she hasn't had any kind of romantic activity since she got on board. it's. well. all kind of hitting her again. ]
And it'll only get better once you learn to trust yourself, quit thinking so much about it. 'Cause I can tell, you know, when you're over-thinking things. It's not bad, it's not a bad thing, just. I can tell. And you really don't have anything to worry about.
Yes, well. That's rather an impossibility for me, but I assume I'll, er, get better as we keep going.
[He wrinkles his nose, dismissing the matter.]
But you're hardly a wilting flower. And you're . . . it's obvious you're strong. I mean, the way you move, you handle yourself-- I'm surprised more people didn't see that.
[He drags his nails down along her side again.]
I'm glad that you trust me enough to be aggressive.
[ she squirms a little bit when his nails find her skin, a little tingle running up her spine from it. ]
I like your aggressiveness. And I don't think it's impossible for you to learn to trust your own instincts. I don't mean- don't think at all, but. Worrying about any of it might take away from your ..enjoyment of it. [ which she only knows because she assumes it's like trying to remember how to hold a shift while she's distracted by physical stuff. but anyway. ] And I'm only saying all of this because that was really- you're, um. You were really. [ wincing because how do you tell someone they're good at sex? ] You were great. And you have nothing to worry about at all. So. I just hope you- liked it, too? Oh, God, now I'm worrying.
[He laughs despite himself and leans forward, kissing her.]
I know what you mean. And I'll try. It's new to me, Raven, but . . . once I get more comfortable, I'll stop thinking. Just as I stopped thinking when I talked to you-- er, which sounds stupid, but you know what I mean.
Tonight, really? [ she sounds distracted now, and it's entirely because him biting her lip is kinda perfect ] You're sure your roommate won't mind that? [ teeeasing. her room is an option, of course, but he did say 'here', so, she's going to tease him for it. ] I'm not sure how I feel about having an audience already...
[ she whines quietly, though it doesn't sound all that convincing in the 'ouch that hurt' department ]
My room. [ she nods, kisses him again ] You can help me unwind after my training session with Edgeworth. We- [ oh. hnn, she's supposed to keep that a secret. she doesn't know why he won't tell people about his abilities, but she doesn't know if Remus knows about it. sooo.. ] -run. A lot, as our cool down. Leaves me with all sorts of adrenaline. [ she grins excitedly, leans in to nudge her nose against his ]
[ it started as a laugh maybe, but there's a surprised sort of gasp once he bites her neck, her hands moving to his shoulders but it's not to push him away. if anything she's gripping him maybe a little too tight ( damn that mutant strength ), but it's just so he doesn't pull away ]
I don't think I'm the most infuriating, there has to be someone else- [ she's laughing again before she can stop herself ] Maybe we should make a list!
[He bites her again-- and again-- and tilts his head up, kissing her firmly. Blindly he reaches up, grabbing her hand, pinning it to the bed-- and he tries to reach for her other hand without breaking their kiss--]
[ third time's a charm, because her mouth is pressed firmly shut by the time he's leaning up to kiss her, and even that doesn't do much to muffle her moan. her legs move around his hips, just to hold onto him, while her free hand actually seeks out his too, wanting to lace her fingers with his ]

[He scoots back, pulling out of her. With a wrinkled nose he tugs off the condom.]
Evanesco! If you'll hold still? Scourgify!
[He repeats that last spell a few more times, just to be sure they've gotten everything, before giving her a small smile.]
Of course, if you'd like to wash your hands or something, obviously, feel free, but it's a good deal simpler getting rid of condoms this way.

It was one of the best things I've ever done.
