Lyra took Ness's hand. "Hey, you know that thing you talked about with Jess? I suppose I could... Help a bit, if you really want me to. I won't enjoy it much, but I figure you guys have earned some help."
Jessica had been idly looking at the ceiling as she waited for Ness' reply, her head snapping back to attention as she heard it. "Wait, what?! Kidnapped?! Are you sure you're alright?...I can come right up there and take you to a hospital if you need it." She groaned a little to herself as she heard about Persephone. "How the hell'd she manage that?"
Ness shook her head as she teleported the duo (and Persephone, if chose to) back near the sleeping quarters. "No... it's alright. I wouldn't want to make you do something you wouldn't enjoy. Thank you for the offer, though." She replied, giving Lyra a small hug.
"Calm down... calm down... I'm fine. I actually didn't get hit at all when we escaped. We're back on the ship now if you want to teleport up. As for Persephone... if I had an answer, I'd tell you." Could it be these earrings she gave me...? Ness telegraphed back, keeping a few thoughts to herself as she idly tapped the earrings she was still wearing.
Lyra felt a bit uncomfortable as Ness hugged her, but returned the hug. "Ah, it wouldn't be a big deal. I'll think of it as training up some newbies. Tell me what you need, away from prying ears, and I'll do research and give you training to help out!"
Ness nodded a small bit as she stepped away from Lyra and scratched the back of her head. "Uh... Well, I took your advice and became a little more... forward. The thing is... neither of us know what to do next." She blushed a bit as she said this.
Jessica breathed a sigh of relief and slumped in her seat a little. "Recently it's like almost every time you're out of my sight you get into trouble of some sort..." She mused mentally aloud. She used her visor to check Ness' location and surroundings. She took her visor off and turned her attention to the Rookie. "I gotta get going now. Tophat should be back eventually." Waving goodbye, she left the hospital room, teleporting into the room with Ness.
Lyra was about to explain her ideas when she realized both Jessica and Persephone would hear. Clicking her teeth, she bluntly said "share a bed without the having the sex bit. Cuddle, nuzzle, have sloppy makeouts, play footsies, light petting, whatever the hell you feel comfortable doing. Simple as that."
Ness noted Lyra's slightly annoyed expression and simply nodded, looking a little embarressed. "Oh.... Uh... Thank you, Lyra... Sorry if that was a bit annoying to ask." So... like in the movies?
She looked over toward Persephone and Jessica, slightly confused.
"Oh, uh, hello." Can't really say the same for you... Jessica replied to Persephone, not returning her hug, but not showing any outward resistance. Hearing Lyra, she turned her head to her with a blank expression on her face. She tilted her head to one side and simply responded with, "Hehh?"
Persey arched her eye brows at Lyra's 'advice' and smoked over to Ness. "I think we have some thing to talk about, darling. Walk with me. Talk with me." she said as she put her arm around Ness and started taking her away.
Lyra waves a hand, leaving the others to their discussions. "its not giving you advice that bothers me, its having others give their own opinions on private matters that bothers me. Night." with that, Lyra went back to her chamber, captive predator in tow.
But I thought Vanessa said...was that supposed to be...?...ugh... Jessica sighed and sat down on her claimed bed, not having much else to do for the moment.
"Oh that's wonderful! Then, that would mean...Oh, my sweet little dear..." Persephone said as she started to put the puzzle pieces together. "So you were asking Lyra for advice then? Why is that exactly?" she asked with a wide smile on her face.
Jessica looked up a bit at nothing in particular as she felt Ness communicating with her mind once again. "Huh?...Oh, yeah, I'm fine...that just...kinda took me off guard is all...Wasn't really expecting that to be the second thing I heard after showing up again...you know?" She waved goodbye to Lyra as she left, then flopped down backwards onto her bed, the legs hanging off the side by her knees.
Ness blushed a small bit and shrugged as she waved goodbye to Lyra. "Because it's my first time in an actual relationship... I wasn't sure what to do..."
"I'm really sorry about that.... " Ness telegraphed, her embarrassed tone being displayed clearly.
