Zilta was the first to get to use the shower when they got back to TK. Her fur was coated in goblinoid blood to the point TK even had them hose her off before she was allowed on board. At first the woman protested, but then she looked down and saw she was still literally dripping onto the ground and reluctantly agreed on the grounds TK warmed up the water first.
After an outdoor rinse she rested her sword in some of TK’s arms to be whisked away for automatic maintenance. An act that both Nelva and Tezira watched with amazement. Zilta however was far more interested in a hot, long shower than the wonders of futuristic technology. Once the sword was lifted up into the ceiling she made a beeline for the showers and the hiss of water, the gentle haze of steam, and a very deep moan drifted through the ship.
Jack glanced over at John with a grin knowing what he would see. Sure enough his teammate shivered and a bright blush spread across his face as the moan hit his ears. Jack and John had talked enough before the mission started for Jack to be VERY well aware that the sight of Zilta finishing off the troll was very much up John’s alley.
Karma soon got Jack back however as Tezira walked out of her room in nothing but a loincloth, foot wraps, and a wrap around her chest. She let out a long yawn with her tounge partially hanging out of her lips when she was done with it. “Oh by the flow delving takes a lot out of you.” She groaned out before plunking down on a sofa.
John returned the knowing grin to Jack who was as red as Tezira’s scales. Jack calmly cleared his throat and continued to remove his armor until he was just in his skin tight undersuit. It was time for the girls to be flustered as the undersuit hid pretty much nothing at all so when Nelva walked out of her room with her soaps and clothes both her and the kobold took their time enjoying the “view.” Nelva let out a rumble before a small ribbit, quickly ducking back into her room before rushing to the shower with a bundle of red rather than the more plain clothes she had earlier.
“Oh hey Nelva, what’s up?” Zilta’s surprised voice called out.
“Need a shower NOW.” Nelva’s voice croaked back in response.
Soon the hiss of a second shower rolled thorough the ship. The kobold however was very fixated on… parts of Jack with her tounge slowly sliding out more and more. She finally let out a squeak and dashed for the shower as well.
“Hey Tezira. Sorry but there is only- RIBBIT!” Nelva’s surprised croak shot through the halls.
“You are almost clean, I have troll blood on me, and I am small.” The other girl squeaked back. “Oh… oh wow.”
“WAIT YOUR TURN!” Came a very loud croak followed by a loud, shrill squeak.
The two humans just looked in the direction of the shower as the sharp crackle of a hyena laugh rolled out of the shower. “Sooooo….” Jack looked over to John.
“You first.” John cut in before laughing. “And TK? Make sure the noise cancellation is ready on his room.”
>:”Request confirmed.”
Jack looked at John like he had just been stabbed in the back.
“Oh please. We both know what is going to happen tonight.” John laughed as he patted Jack on the back.
“You have no way of…” he thought about things for a bit before sitting down and leaning back into the soft seat with a wide smile on his face. “Well… Okay chances are yeah its gunna happen. Fuck I hope so.” He admitted with a chuckle of his own. “TK. Sound cancel John’s room too just in case.”
>:”Confirmed. Also sound proofing Tezira’s room as well and scheduling the muting of my mics and pausing automatic recording.”
There was a pause before Jack typed something into his personal tab.
>:”Correction: Select automatic recording authorized. Naughty.”
Jack turned a bright red before letting out a long groan. “Fucking hell you didn’t have to announce it!” He yelled out at the ship as John started to laugh. “Fuuuuck. Betrayed by the ship. If she starts saying “I cannot do that Jack” I am going to do a review of her safeties.”
>:”Now that is uncalled for.”
The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
“You know damn well what you did.” He groaned out as John just laughed harder and harder at his friend’s misfortune. “I like you Truck kun, but fucking hell!” He rubbed his face a bit before a low rumble filled the room.
“Hey Jack. Sorry for just rushing by. I had to get cleaned up.” A smooth, elegant voice rolled through the room.
Jack stopped his misery to look at the entrance to the room and froze. The dress hugged the frog woman’s body perfectly with a slit down the side showing off her long, fit leg. Her shoulders shined in the ship’s lighting and her eyes glimmered with excitement.
“I must admit I have never worn something so… scandalous before in front of a man.” She admitted with a small chuckle. “But I must admit it feels… exciting and thrilling.” She continued on as she slowly walked over to the table letting her hips sway.
Jack went quiet as he looked her up and down over and over again. Each time his jaw hung a little lower as his face got redder and redder. “Hooooooly shit.” He finally let out as he looked up into her large eyes. He crossed his legs about to compliment her more before Zilta’s voice rumbled out down the hall.
“Ohhhh by the plains I needed that. Heyyyy my fur is nice and soft! Thanks for that new soap TK!”
>:”It is my pleasure. Jack, shower stall one is open. Would you prefer the water hot or cold?”
Jack looked over Nelva one last time before squeaking out “Hot. Like hell I want to cool off after seeing this amazing sight.” He answered before hopping up. “My turn to get clean.” He told Nelva before giving her a small kiss on her cheek.
She rumbled happily before she sat down across from John. She crossed her legs a bit as her eyes followed Jack as he pretty much ran out of the room.
“Heyyy J-EEP!” Poor Tesira had to hop out of the way as Jack rushed to the shower. “What was that all about? I polished my scales and he didn’t e-“ The kobold then stopped and looked over Nelva. She paused for awhile before letting out a long whistle. “Ah, alright. That would be why.” She nodded before sitting at the table.
“What do you mean?” Nelva asked looking over at the kobold and tilted her head.
“You didn’t look in the mirror then.” She squeaked as she crossed her arms in frustration. “How am I supposed to match you in that dress! I’m going to need a cold shower after looking at you. I mean come on now. Its perfect for your body.”
John calmly looked away trying hard to pretend that he wasn’t there before it dawned on him that the other stall would be empty. He hopped up and rushed over to the shower to avoid the awkward conversation currently going on in front of him.
The two watched him leave with a small chuckle. Both quickly realized what they had done to the poor man and couldn’t help but find it funny. Once the giggles died down they looked at each other and Tezira let out a long sigh. “Alright alright you win Nelva. You first.”
Nelva clicked a bit and shook her head. “It was not a race nor a competition Tezira. You will have your turn too.” She explained. “Frankly, the race right now is probably going to be between me and Jack.” She added as she casually tapped her chin and gave the small kobold a smug grin.
Tezira let out a squeak and her tail flicked side to side. “Hey hey hey what do you mean with that?” She asked out in a higher, squeakier tone.
“By the way, that was a really good idea using your horns to pull the grenade pins. I might need your help figuring out some way to pull the pins since my fingers struggle with them.” Nelva held up her hands to help give a visual to her problem.
“Nonono WAIT! You said something about you and Jack racing and I want to know what that was about.” Tezira demanded with a squeak.
“Oh come on now I am sure you can think of some way to help me with my problem.” Nelva went on.
“Come onnnn! Don’t just leave me out in the sun like this! What did you mean? Is it me?”
“Maybe you could help me throw better? Or should I talk to Zilta about that?”
“You are being evil.”
“I am trying to improve myself.”
“You are avoiding the question.”
“What question?”
The poor kobold’s squeak of frustration echoed down the hall as she squirmed a bit in her seat.
“Its okay Tezira. I am sure you will have your answer soon enough.” Nelva teased as she got up. She had just seen Jack slip from the shower to his room and she knew it was time to make her move. “And Tezira, thanks for letting me have this night.”
Tezira took a deep breath before smiling up at her. “Hey. You two are being amazing to me already. It would be really wrong to get between you two like that, you know?” She let out a sigh. “Besides. I don’t know if-“ She sat up straight with her tail flicking about as it finally dawned on her. She turned to try and talk to Nelva only to watch her vanish down the hall and into Jack’s room.
Letting out another long, frustrated squeak she finally just leaned back in her sat and closed her eyes for a bit. Enjoying the moment of silence already betting that tonight would be quite noisy even with whatever that “noise cancellation” was.
As Nelva slipped into Jack's room she gave the human a warm smile. This was it! She was not going to leave this room a maiden. Jack clearly shared the same idea as he relaxed on the bed in nothing on but his boxers and the blankets he was laying under. The lights were low setting the mood well as she slowly slipped under the covers.
"So, why tonight?" She asked softly as she pressed her head against Jack's.
"Well, we went through quite a lot today, got a big plate of humble pie, and have to admit it was pretty hot watching you work." He admitted as he rubbed her sides.
"Oh?" She raised an eyebrow not believing that was the only reason at all. She did still put her arms around him and pull him closer.
"And the dress." He admitted with a chuckle before finally kissing her on the lips. "The dress is amazing."
She chuckled and ran a hand through his hair. "And so are you. I doubt I would have been able to keep my mind focused if my spells started to fail."
"Hmm. Lets not worry about what happened today in the dungeon." He leaned down and kissed her neck getting a loud rumble from her, followed by a gasp when her mind started working again.
"Agreed."
