Myr demurred. "But it is not a lie, Vis! You are beautiful."
Vis smiled and held out Risa's other hand. Myr took it; it was like
seeing a massive glove cover Myr's hand and part of Risa's arm. The delicacy
of Vis' touch surprised me, as Risa's hand stroked my back and dragged purrs
from my lips.
It's hard to forget that night, so special and different. I instantly
fell into a wishful trance of wanting to help Vis, wanting to make Risa's feel
a pleasure that we all get so very rarely from the world around us. As the
three of us stripped off our clothing, Vis tossed Risa's shirt carelessly
away, and it landed on me instead. I realized just how large Risa Kasumi was; the
cloth of Risa's tunic was a tent to me; I could sleep under it and feel
protected from colder winds.
Naked, we descended upon one another, we three.
