L'Sa:

“Yes,” L’Sa replied as she moved from the doorway. “Are you annoyed?” She asked as she put the tricorder and scanner away. Doing this in her lab would have been far easier, but it would also meant a dozen plus scientists in the area and available to look at Xiana. This was more complicated, but private. Was she perhaps irritated that L’Sa was involving personal interactions during business? Was it a biological interaction with the pollen and bacteria?

“The Commander and I do not often use the holo settings. But we would have done so for you. I don’t know what you find pleasing yet.”

***
Kavela:
Once she’d made him slick she started moving faster, the feel of his swollen head brushing along the inside of her mouth was pleasurable to her. And then she was forced to hold her breath and take him completely, until his testicles were resting on her chin and she could smell his human maleness.

When he spoke she looked up, her eyes opening, the movement putting even more pressure on his cock and the back of her throat. And then she withdrew, until his swollen tip was at her lips. “How many orgasms can you achieve in one session?” she asked, her breath cool on his slick cock, before licking him.​

Hora

“Wake me if anything unusual happens per my standing orders,” Hora instructed, her voice calm but firm.

“Aye, Aye, Captain,” the Officer of the Deck replied.

With that, Hora turned and headed for her quarters, the hiss of the sliding doors sealing her off from the bridge’s hum of discipline and duty. As the corridor lights dimmed with her departure, she exhaled the weight of command.

What shall I indulge in tonight? The thought flickered as she unzipped her uniform, each movement revealing more of her voluptous figure.

“How about the "I’ve Been a Bad Girl” fantasy?" She asked herself. The fantasy had its charm, relinquishing all control, letting herself be claimed in a space where she didn’t have to decide anything. She would act badly and get a punishment fuck. But she'd spun that fantasy too many times. Too familiar.

"How about The Center of the Universe fantasy" She thought. Her favorite threesome fantasy where all eyes, lips, and hands were on her. Euphoric, yes. But she'd done that one too often.

What about the rebellious fantasy? Like “Yes, Daddy,” she thought with a smirk. She could be bratty and get discipline by an older male. It morph into some with rough sex. "No bruises tonight" She thought as she decarded that one.

She poured herself a drink, slow and deliberate. Something unfamiliar. Something with risk.

Two strangers... women this time?
The anonymity would give her freedom, a mask behind which she could reinvent herself. Play it cool. Play it distant. Pretend she doesn’t want sex at all.

A chuckle rose in her throat. Now that would be different! A version of Hora who resisted sex.

“I am,” she admitted, “but not at you, I promise. I just loathe how this shower feels on my skin. I know it’s necessary, though. I just hope it ends soon.”

When L’Sa’s movements came to an end, the woman visibly relaxed. “I’m sorry if I’m coming across as odd right now. I feel a bit off. I’m unsure if it was the trip or the nostalgia or just being tired. This week has been heavy.”

She took the other’s hands gently in hers. “But I promise, an evening with you two sounds lovely. I don’t truly care what we do, as long as it’s in your presence.”

◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

The intoxicating sight with the sudden depth was an unexpected combination. The man was inclined to widen his eyes solely on how deeply she took him in his mouth. The feeling of him brushing her throat made his grip tighten on her hair.

Araiza lamented her lips withdrawing, feeling himself twitch at Kavela’s cool breath again his glistening cock. Realistically, if she kept driving him insane the way she was, his time would be cut shorter. He wanted it to last. He needed it to.

“As long as we’re even,” he replied, pulling his waist back, out of the woman’s grip. Helping her back onto her feet, he guided her back to a nearby couch, carefully motioning her to sit. Kneeling before her, he split her thighs apart by caressing his hands from the bottom of her legs to the top, until he slid them under her. Without a rush, he brought his tongue to the inside of her thighs, tasting inch by inch of her skin, avoiding her opening purposely.

“I’ve been wanting to taste you from the minute I saw you,” he spoke, his blue eyes fixed on her reactions, serious, “but I’m not sure you want it enough.”

“Very well,” L’Sa said. “And you’re finished. You may dress.”

“How is the week heavy? Time is not heavy or light.” she asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Very well then, a simple meal. Maybe some meditation before we retire to the bedroom.”

***

“The last time chronologically, that I had sex was about three years. But it’s been forty-two days for me, waking time.” She told him, her fingers sliding into his hair and along his scalp. “Trust me, I want and need this enough.”

Shivering slightly as he kissed her thighs, she wondered how long he could resist.​
 
◅ XIANA MARLOWE ▻

Retrieving her clothes, she continued as she slipped them on. “No darling, it’s an expression. I’m trying to say that I had a lot of work this week. It took a bigger toll on me than I anticipated.”

“Could you help zip me up?” she asked, giving her back to L’Sa. “In the spirit of change, what if you two came to my quarters instead? Is there any way we could adjust the gravity for your comfort? I could cook for the two of you.”

◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

“Enough?” he questioned, running the tip of his tongue from the bottom to the top of her slit, just light enough to make her more eager. He didn’t go any deeper and went as slowly as he could before pulling his head a few inches back. “I’m not sure you really need it…”
 
Stardate 29870606.1805

Reaching forwards L’Sa slid her fingers along the other woman’s spine before zipping her clothing closed. “We could come to your quarters if you wish. Atmospherics can be altered to any specifications. Gravity, temperature, even Atmosphere.”

“It would be interesting. If that is your desire. Neither of us would wish to interfere in your space.”

****

“Don’t stop,” Kavela sighed. “Just don’t stop.”

Shifting slightly she inched closer on the seat towards his face and tongue. Her fingers encouraging him to continue his ministrations. Unless he wanted to shove himself inside her. That she was willing to accept.​
 
◅ XIANA MARLOWE ▻

Interfere? Xiana turned around, cupping the woman’s face in her hands cautiously. “You’re not interfering; I want you there. If it were up to me, I’d wake to the two of you as much as possible.”

She left a soft kiss on L’Sa’s lips, her thumb running faintly on her cheek. “If you’ll have me, of course.”

◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

Araiza debated whether or not to make her suffer any longer. He loved begging, waiting, being in control in general. He had to admit, he was excited himself. He’d submit to the request just this once.

Pulling her in closer by the back of her thighs, he pressed his mouth against her, letting his tongue explore every corner it could find. He lapped her up eagerly, eyes focused on her while he savored her taste. The way his lips and tongue were in sync, one would’ve guessed he was a starving man indulging in fine dining.
 
Stardate 29870606.1810

L’Sa returned the gentle kiss, her hands pulling herself closer to the other woman. “Yes, I will have you.” she whispered.

Eventually she stepped back. “What time would you like us to arrive?” she asked. Returning the equipment to it’s designated location.

****

Her legs quivered in ecstasy as Araiza licked her aching folds. As the trembling momentarily subsided she clenched his hair and looked at him. “Inside me. Now.”

She needed the feeling. To feel him inside her. Filling her aching core with his cock. Fingers wouldn’t do. Tongue wouldn’t do. Only a long tentacle or a hard cock. She needed to feel him inside her. Not just stimulating her clit or g-spot. She needed to feel him stretching and filling her.

“Fuck me..” She said rather huskily, her breath ragged with want.​
 
◅ XIANA MARLOWE ▻

She considered the amount of files waiting for her at home. It was times like those that made her hate her traditional notetaking. “Perhaps in two, three hours? Would that be alright?”

◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

Araiza chuckled at her order. If he was known for anything, it was disliking being told what to do. Yes, he happily would abide by her desires—it’d been at the forefront of his mind the minute he laid eyes on her—but he didn’t like easy. Easy got boring.

“You want me to fuck you?” he asked, getting on his feet and leaning down to the couch, guiding Kavela by her shoulder to lean back lengthwise on his couch. Taking her legs, he positioned himself at her opening, his dripping tip rubbing against her. “Should I fill you up? Stretch you out until you cum on my cock?”

He waited above her for an answer, but then cracked a crooked smile. “I do have an early start tomorrow,” he explained, pulling back and pushing himself off the sofa. As if a switch had been flipped in his head, he went for his underwear and pants, putting them on, difficult with his bulge still prominent. “Anyway, it was great meeting you.”
 
Stardate 29870606.1815

“2130 hours, would be acceptable.” L’Sa replied. “And we are used to replicator food most days, so you needn’t make anything from scratch.”

Moving towards the exit she added, “You’re perfectly healthy by the way. No foreign contagions. Will we be spending the night?”

****

Quivering as her orgasms subsided Kavela looked at Araiza in disbelief as he started to dress again. “You’ve got to be kidding me.” she sighed. “Do you do this with everyone? Or just me?”

Getting up from the couch she grabbed her clothes and straightened them out before starting to pull them on. With the way she moved her hair slid from her forehead slightly revealing hard boney cranial ridges that were noticeable for only a second at a time. Like two flat “V” shapes from the bridge of her nose to her temples.

“Humans..” she muttered under her breath. “Guess you don’t want to find out what it’s like for me to be in your bed even once.”​
 
◅ XIANA MARLOWE ▻

Xiana had been wanting to cook for some time, but it could be time saving. She’d reconsider her approach. “We’ll see.”

“I’d love for you two to spend the night,” she answered, following her and giving her a quick hug from behind, followed by a kiss on the cheek. “I’ll see tonight, alright? Thank you for making sure I’m healthy.”

◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

Finishing buckling his belt, he turned his head back to the woman. “Quite the opposite. I want something to look forward to after I take you out to dinner,” he grinned.

Maybe he was being too extra by elongating it, but he was amused by it. He did want to see her again. “I’m not due back to work for a few days, so how’s tomorrow night? If I haven’t completely pissed you off, of course.”
 
Stardate 29870606.1820

“Of course,” L’Sa replied. She was tempted to say that it was her duty as Xenobiologist. But that may sound wrong, as if she was dismissing Xiana’s feelings. When she had no intention of doing such a thing. But to expression emotion was not logical especially in public. She’d already broken taboo’s with the kiss, even if no one was around. So with a slight nod of her head in acknowledgment she left the decon chamber so the Counselor could finish her duties as well.

****

“I wanted a fuck, tonight. Now. Apparently I’ll need to find what I need elsewhere.” Had he never gone through Hypersleep? Probably not as a Fleeter. Shower. Eat. Fuck. Sleep. Everyone went through it, some with the urgency altered. Hell Vulcan’s didn’t even fuck or sleep. The just meditated and though about how fucking was illogical.

Fucking living computers.

“If you just wanted to play games, you could have wasted someone else’s time. Or is it because of my species?” Finished dressing she stood up and glared at him as she finished speaking.​
 
◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

The male’s lighthearted expression turned into confusion. Okay, his intentions were definitely poorly executed. “What, no! I don’t give a shit about your species. If I wanted to play games, I would’ve just fucked you and called it a day, damn.”

“I just thought some mystery or holding off would make it hotter. Clearly I was wrong,” Araiza stated. He wasn’t angry, he genuinely hadn’t meant to make Kavela upset. Granted, an explanation couldn’t change anything. “I like you. I wanna get to know you. Sorry for pissing you off.”
 
Stardate 29870606.1825

“You think?” Kavela replied. “If I was in the middle of giving you head and just stopped and said lets finish this tomorrow, would you seriously be ok with that? Besides I thought we were just having sex. I’m not looking for a boyfriend or a date.”

“No kissing, No snuggling afterwards. Sex and just sex.”​
 
◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

He thought about the hypothetical, surprising himself with a shrug. “Yeah, weirdly enough I would be. Because I wanna see you again. I know we just met and everything and it’s not like I have some attachment but I don’t know. I want to… know you, for some reason.”

He wanted to agree with her, but he was equally perplexed. “Look, it’s not usually my MO, I’m also fucking confused. It’s fair game for you to be mad or weirded the fuck out and not talk to me again and just leave, ‘cause it is annoying. I’m an annoying guy. I don’t know what to tell you.”
 
Stardate 29870606.1830

“You’d have had a better chance of meeting me again if you’d have finished and fucked me.” Kavela commented as she headed for the door. “I’m not in your head space, and I don’t want to be. Especially after this.”

“See you around. I need a holodeck now.”​
 
◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

…Fair enough. He awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck as he watched the woman leave. Just when he thought he knew one way of approaching people, he seemed to always head back to square one. Was he supposed to bring it up in therapy? Or hope for divine intervention?

The head space, unfortunately, seemed to get his gears going. “Huh…” he mumbled in his solitude, searching for a pen and pencil.
 
Stardate 29870606.2030

Arriving at the Counselor’s quarters at precisely 2030 hours Commander Reeves tapped the door chime. Letting her know they had arrived. Although not in uniform, their clothing was still uniform like in it’s pattern.

Both of them tended to be dedicated to work and duty, though L’Sa was wearing light blue instead of her usual Medical white and the Commander was in dark gray instead of his standard red and black.

Once she’d opened the door and they’d stepped inside L’Sa held out a small decorative wooden box filled with cheese crackers. “For Scuti. If it’s allowed to have them.”​
 
◅ XIANA MARLOWE ▻

Not yet out of her professional attire, the counselor looked stressed. It wasn’t a common level of stress, one where she was anxious about a deadline or concerned about a patient’s progress. She was, by every means of the word, annoyed.

“This is so kind, thank you,” Xiana said, taking the gift. She would’ve loved to have greeted the two with affection, but a familiar face peeked from the kitchen.

The resident weapons technician grinned. After having begged the counselor for a last minute session, one that ran longer than she desired, she had proposed him help her cook as a way to send him away. It didn’t take. On the brightside, he was a good cook, and the kitchen was a symphony of delicious odors. On the downside, Xiana would’ve rather had each of her eyelashes plucked one by one than have to team up in most household chores. “What are you two doing here?”
 
Stardate 29870606.2035

“The Counselor invited us to dinner at her place this evening,” Reeves replied raising an eyebrow at the face of the Weapons Officer. “Unless we made a mistake and you meant another night?”

They could easily have replicator food this evening as it was one of the nights they usually would anyways. And if they had had a misunderstanding, or if the counselor had changed her mind, this would allow her the opportunity to have them leave.

Glancing at Xiana L’Sa raised an eyebrow in such a way that Mr. Araiza would not be able to see it from his position at the kitchen doorway.​
 
◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

“Huh, no wonder you wanted to cook so much. Thought you just had a big appetite or something.” As far as Araiza knew, the seemingly platonic dining was something he could only make better. It was better than his other alternative: in a very unfamiliar and unpleasant feeling, he didn’t want to be alone. For now, he’d nag the counselor and her visitors. He assumed they would talk ship business or the like.

◅ XIANA MARLOWE ▻

Xiana didn’t have the heart to tell the man to leave, as much as she wanted to. She had spent too much of her patience in the days prior, the slight twitch of her left eye giving away her low supply. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to be helpful, but the man was especially hard to deal with at the moment, particularly after a stressful day. “No, please, come in. The Lieutenant-“

“Araiza.”

She squeezed her eyes shut and took a quick breath. “He helped cook. Please, come in.”

Prior to stepping aside to allow them to pass, Xiana shot them one final look of desperation. One that begged one simple expression: get him out of my home.
 
Stardate 29870606.2040

“Mr. Araiza,” L’Sa said as she walked towards him. “As a Xenobiologist I’m curious about humans. So far I’ve only been able to observe the Commanders biology and ask him questions.”

“May I ask you a few questions?” without waiting for his refusal she launched into a battery of questions of a very personal nature. “Would you estimate that your sexual abilities are average or otherwise? How long are you able to maintain an erection without ejaculation? Are your partners satisfied with your sexual abilities and prowess during copulation? What is the length and diameter of your penis while fully erect? How often do you engage in sexual activity? Do you have a single partner or multiple? Would you be willing to come to my lab for a full biological assessment? I would also need a sample of your semen. It would provide me with an filtered human dna and would not require extraction whereas a female would.”

“I’m also working on a dual degree in human psychology and psychiatry. May I interview you for my thesis? It shouldn’t take more than a week of eight hour interviews. I will of course need to ask you a number of personal questions, but your name will not appear anywhere in the paper so there is no need to be concerned about being recognized.”

Glancing at the ingredients she added, “Are you aware of the Vulcan distaste for consuming biological matter of animals? We’re vegetarians except in great emergency. There is also the Vulcan biological sensitivity to certain foods that humans seem to prefer.”​
 
◅ ALFREDO ARAIZA ▻

Araiza’s eyes widened, his lips turning upwards in awkwardness. He couldn’t have been more shocked at the woman’s candor. He slowly stirred what seemed like some sort of sauce while L’Sa finished hitting him with question after question, glancing at the commander and counselor to make sure he wasn’t also hearing what the Vulcan was saying.

Once she was finished, he quietly turned the counselor’s stove off, then cleared his throat.

“All good questions. Uh, I think above average. Haven’t had any complaints on the actual performance—wait, that’s a lie. One time back on Earth my wife and I wanted to try hooking up midflight. Bad idea, those bathrooms are tiny,” he chuckled. He and Bree would laugh at the disaster it had turned out to be. Nothing disgusting, but it had ended with a twisted ankle.

“I haven’t timed it, but I’ll get back to you on that. My partners seemed to be happy. I’m weirdly good at distracting myself so honestly I can go a while. Length, I’d say what, seven and a half? Girth is pretty even, but I’ll have to get back to you with specifics. I’d say… three times a week on average? With one partner, anyway. Solo’s normal, of course, but you’d be surprised at the number of people into group sex on this ship. Multiple, no commitment, and yes, I’m clean and get tested. Yeah, just preferably before I get back to work and get busy again. Is the sample done in person or…”

Araiza shrugged. “As long as you get permission from the Chief, if I’m on the clock, sure, I’ll participate. And don’t freak out: Marlowe—“

Doctor Marlowe.”

He rolled his eyes. “The counselor gave the recipe. I just did the labor as a thanks.”
 
Stardate 29870606.2045

“Many on the ship are into group sex? Fascinating. What is the benefit of this? Do you achieve more sexual stimulation? Of course I would work around any schedule you have. As the head of the Xenobiology division that is easily facilitated. The sample would be required to be in person, for maximization of sanitary protocols.”

“Is your lack of using proper Rank and title intentional or simply a product of your upbringing? I was not aware that you had a wife. Do you also have children? Is she and or the children on the Dark Fire? Is there a possibility of her being interviewed as well?”

“I rarely have the opportunity to converse with a human in a social setting. You will be providing me with a great deal of information and assistance.”

“Jordan informed me that you were flirting with me. I apologize that I did not recognize such advances. Though I am not interested in copulating with you I am flattered that you flirted with me. Why did you do it? Was it purely sexual in nature or was there a more long term interest?”

“It’s my understand that six inches in length is average, have you gotten compliments or complaints on the length of your penis? Have you been with other men? Have you and or your wife had sexual, or personal, relationships with non-Humans in the past or currently? If you have how would you find they compare to Humans?”​
 
“I don’t know, some people just think it’s hot. I don’t know if it actually, like, does something, biologically speaking.” What else was he supposed to answer? He gave the sauce a few more stirs.

“I just think titles are stupid. Sure, maybe at some point they were a way of certification, but nothing stops someone from just saying they’re a doctor. Not saying you or anyone here does it, but at this point it’s regarded more for status,” he admitted in a casual tone. “I get really irked by people thinking they’re inherently better than others.”

Typically, speaking of stories of his wife was something he was happy to share. He had years to share after all, and revisiting his memories—the pleasant ones—was enjoyable. However, as he had to put together the words yet again that his wife wasn’t, in fact, alive, he found himself at the same road he hadn’t been able to cross after two years. He visibly tensed, letting go of the ladle he was holding, still for a moment, and staring into the pot while the Vulcan went on. His chest felt heavy.

“Actually she, you know, died,” he shared, his voice small as he walked over to the nearby sink and washed his hands. “You know, I should really get going. Got some stuff to take care of, but I’ll, uh, I’ll get back to you, alright?”

Araiza wiped his hands on his shirt, giving a reserved nod to the three people present. “Doc, I’ll be seeing you. And, you know, the rest of you,” he said, “Yeah.”

Without a follow-up, the man made his way out. Xiana stood uncomfortably for a few beats. “Anyhow… dinner?”
