          Vinata stood in the turbolift alone as he rode between decks, he had just finished having an early lunch and was making his way up to his quarters so that he could spend some time relaxing and freshening up before he headed in to work. Vinata was a little excited to head in today, over the past few days he and Lucan had been able to get pretty close, after the intimate evening he had shared with his commanding officer and the work that they had done the day after had helped boost Vinata's confidence greatly. Not to mention the new friend he believed that he had managed to make while on his time off the day before, and today he would be in the Primary Surgical Suite working not that far from Lucan.

As Vinata thought about work he stroked his chin and frowned to himself as he remembered how his sister had rushed back into work, she had barely been free of her eggs for three days and she was already ready to get back to work, Vinata could only imagine how this rush was effecting Maal, the poor fool had likely intended to wait until the eggs had come to think about this, but for Hylota she had thought this out in advance, Vinata had been consulted on where a good spot to send the egg would be, together they had thought up three options, all would provide adequate care and would be able to keep the egg in cryo until such a time as the Theurgy prevailed or failed at their mission, in either case the child would be raised like any other Ovri unless Maal came to claim the child.

Leaning against the wall of the lift, Vinata began to wonder if Hylota would stick with Maal, would she try to be a mother? Or would she turn out like their own mother and just pursue her own goals and leave any children behind. Vinata shrugged to himself, it was not as though it mattered, no matter the outcome the child would be cared for and be given a chance to grow up free and safe, something that would be highly unlikely here on the Theurgy.

[Show/Hide]When the turbolift stopped at one deck, the sliding doors opened for Nurse Maal - who stepped in with his wide shoulders brushing the sides of the opening. When he entered, his brown eyes did a double-take towards the other young wom- man in the lift, and the recognition was instantaneous. It was the individual that he had avoided - for his sake - since Vasser's mutiny. The memories were hard to dispel... the moments leading up to his own injury.

Remembering it all in seeing Vinata, Maal thought that the public humiliation for the nurse must have been keenly felt, just like his own. Hylota had barely forgiven him for what had transpired between him and her brother. but in the end, she seemed to have respected that it was not his choice - that he had forced to do it. He had merely complied out of fear for what the mutineer would have done otherwise, and with his hidden hypospray, he had hoped to subdue the human. Instead, he had failed, and according to the reports, Vinata had finished what he started.

"Nurse Vojona," he acknowledged, barely able to keep his eyes away from those lips of his, clearing his throat and folding his large hands behind his back, he stood idle - looking into the doors that had closed behind him. "Deck 11."

The turbolift acknowledged his request, and the awkward silence settled in the lift, until Maal felt compelled to break it.

"My apologies... for what happened...."

          As the door opened and Maal got on a little uneasily Vinata was not sure he should say anything, he knew that Maal had beaten himself up over having been forced to rape him, and even more for having failed to save Vinata, but to him, Maal was being much too harsh on himself, his own mind remembered events differently to Maal. He did not see it so much as him being raped by Maal so much as them being forced to rape each other, neither of them wanted to do it and they were being forced at phaserpoint, Maal was just as much of a victim as he had been, but due to how events had played out the two had not been able to spend time together. Vinata still could not find the right words to begin a conversation with Maal though, thankfully he did not need to find them as Maal broke the awkward silence.

Vinata nodded to Maal at first. "Nurse Maal, a pleasure to see you again." As Maal then gave his shaky apology and left it to hang Vinata looked to the other man and he reached out to put a hand on Maal's shoulder. "You have nothing to apologize for, do not think I have forgotten everything that happened that day. You nearly died to try and save me Maal, you and I were forced to rape each other, my actions actually managing to bring you to such a shameful climax." Vinata sighed and waved it off. "It does not matter, what does is that you immediately tried to seize an opportunity to try and save us both, you took a life threatening blow and gave me the opening needed to save us...my one regret is that I could not maintain myself long enough to try and stabilize you, that it fell on others to save your life." Vinata sighed and shook his head. "Neither of us remember that day fondly, I feel that the least we can do is forgive each other for our own failings that day, that we might move on and better ourselves." Vinata smiled at Maal. "After all you have a future child to think about, how would you like them to see you? As the confident nurse or the one lamenting his past, you should move on from this Maal, become an even greater man. do not keep me as a weight holding you back, for whatever it is worth yo are forgiven for all that you were forced to do."

[Show/Hide]When the Ovri male began to speak, Maal had not expected the sympathy and understanding. He had judged Vinata prematurely, based on his initial reaction to the mutiny and what had befallen them, and thought he still resented him for what had happened.

Instead, Vinata proved to have understood the greater picture, one that Maal wasn't even sure he fully grasped himself. He spoke of the child, and Hylota, and urged him to move on, and all he could do was being stupefied by his large-minded attitude about it all. Maal did not have an inkling about what might have caused Vinata to be so magnanimous, but he was relieved that the Ovri had moved on. Before the mutiny, Maal had never been with a male of any species, and he was too ashamed to admit that he found himself remembering those last moments too often, reliving the ordeal in equal shock at his own reaction to Vinata's oral ministrations and how the revulsion towards that incident was not complete.

Yet in a way, the notion that he didn't relive the event in abject horror was an even greater shame to his honour. How could he even consider the pleasure derived from such a vile act, and even now, find himself looking at Vinata's moving lips in a way that he shouldn't?

When he cleared his throat, the sound rumbled in the small lift, and he found himself much too close to the Ovri when facing him. He swallowed, and tried to think of someone else, knowing that it had been the Nurse' pheromones that messed with his thoughts back in that recovery ward. "You are correct," he managed, clenching his eyes shut and running a hand through his short hair. He had more to say, but the trip would be over any second. "Thea, could you halt the turbolift, please?"

There was a chirp of acknowledgement, and when the lift was at a stand-still, Maal folded his brawny arms across his chest, self-conscious in the Ovri's presence. Truthfully, he wasn't sure where to look when he spoke, his eyes returning to that mouth and the exotic skin of the alien male. Of course, the prominent bust also drew his eye, but he tried his best to just look Vinata in the eye - those large, dark eyes deep enough to get lost in. Perhaps this was a mistake?

"I still believe I have plenty to apologise for. It was not honourable. I failed to subdue the mutineer. He could have killed you. Almost killed me. It is not easy to try and move on. To forget the two-fold shame. Not only did I fail to protect my fellow staff and the patients, I... I was roused by you, even under such horrible circumstances. The shame is not just in the failure, in allowing it, and failing to end it, but because..."

He could not bear to articulate it, eyes flicking to Vinata's mouth anew. He tried again, clearing his throat. "I was with your sister, and I should not have let myself react to you the way I did. It shamed all three of us... and it shames me now too."

          As Maal stated that Vinata was correct he thought that would be the end of it then and there, he smiled and nodded as he looked to Maal, but as Maal stopped the turbolift and the two men stood there in the confined space Vinata realized everything had not been as cut and dry as he thought, he forgot that not everyone thought of things in the same manner that the Ovri did, not everyone tried to remove themselves from the situation to think it over.  In Vinata's mind Maal had been just as much a victim as he had been, but not he was having to consider that Maal might feel as bad as if he had been part of the mutiny.

Respectfully Vinata remained silent as he let Maal vent, allowed him to get the weight that had been on his chest off at long last, it was indeed long since past the time for them to reconcile after what had happened during the mutiny. It was stranger still to hear how Maal felt he had brought shame on both Vinata and his sister over what he had done, over how he had been so aroused by what Vinata had been able to do, this made Vinata blush a little as he rubbed the back of his neck and let let a sigh. "Yeah I apologize for that, I was simply doing as I was threatened, I should have tried less and let you focus, I have considered that my actions were responsible in part for  the situation we ended up in." Vinata did not want Maal to be hurt over this, but as Maal said that he was still feeling shame Vinata caught the direction of his eyes and he blinked as he looked to Maal, the wheels in his mind turning.

As Vinata thought he came to the right conclusion he looked into Maal's eyes and spoke. "So...you still feel that there is an attraction to me as well?" Vinata cocked his head, he was afraid Maal might go into denial over this so he quickly followed the point up.  "You should know that among the Ovri open relationships are very much the norm, you should not feel that you must be limited to Hylota, she would never force you to remain with her.  If you have a desire that you wish to say you can share it with me if you want, I will not let it slip if you do not want it to be known." Vinata smiled gently at Maal, he wanted the other man to be comfortable  with him.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Maal was indeed about to raise his voice in utter denial, objecting to the very notion that he'd actually not been able to rid his mind from the event because of Vinata, but the other Nurse forestalled him.

That Ovri had open relationships was, of course, nothing Hylota had told him, and he wasn't even sure they were in a relationship. Maybe? They had a child together, so they had a mutual responsibility, and in Maal's sense, that was pretty much a relationship despite how new and strange it was. But that Hylota wouldn't hold it against him if... Was that true? Could he be sure Vinata wasn't being too presumptuous about his sister's feelings?

Then, his eyes widened and he cursed turning from Vinata. Why was he even thinking along those lines? It was wrong of him... He was weak, his conduct dishonourable. He might be raised amongst humans, but he had the honour of a dog if he even... He worked his jaw, looking at the Ovri, breathing deeply. He realised he might seem imposing, quite aware what his Klingon heritage might signal to others because he had always been so different on Earth.

"This is not your fault, please, I just..." He growled, working his hands at his sides. "Ovri might be open to such things, but they are more rare where I come from. My native people stay with their mate, but I was not raised there. So I am not truly Klingon. My apologies, this is just... highly irregular."

He blinked, feeling like the only way to soothe things over, to show the Ovri that he wasn't a threat, was to answer, he supposed. But how? The words stuck in his throat. "I remember it," he said, well, of course he would. That was not the point. "When I see you. The memory prevails despite the foul intents that begot the act. It preoccupies me, both the shame, as I said... And the... "

He was not prepared to say it. "I see it again, often, unable to rid it from my mind. My reaction to your 'treatment' lingers, even when you are not there - stirring me at the mere thought." If he had said as much, then there was no use denying it. His fists works at his sides, and he had to look away, baring his teeth as he spoke. "I have even pleased myself at the memory, despite how I shouldn't."

          Vinata rubbed his temple as he listened to what Maal had to say, the way he carried himself and acted projected such frustration and pent up aggression. In Vinata's mind he could see that Maal was this way because he was constantly angry with himself, frustrated with his inability to move past what was the cultural norm for his people. "Look I can understand your stress, you feel as though what happened with you and Hylota has made a bond, and that might be so, but an Ovri relationship is fleeting, most only last a few years. We move on and pursue our passions, create new relationships and just keep moving, for many women that have multiple clutches of eggs, the father is rarely ever the same not to mention the parents moving on by the time the children are fully grown. You need to understand that to Hylota your sense of honor and devotion is misplaced, I do not doubt she will encourage you to seek someone more capable of a healthy relationship with you."

As Maal began to talk about the events that happened during the mutiny and how he still could not forget the things that Vinata had done to him and how he still fantasized about the pleasure that Vinata had provided, this made him a bit shocked, he had not realized that he had such an effect, a part of hi wanted to suggest that it might be his Klingon biology and the desire for power and control enjoying the submissive position Vinata had been in, but he figured that might be counter productive to the end goal, Vinata held his chin and looked to Maal as he thought for a moment about what was said, not saying a word. In some cases it was a good idea to wean a person off of their desires, let them get small doses and let them get acclimated to it before ending the exposure.

Vinata nodded to himself as he decided on his idea and he looked back to Maal. "Well Maal as strange as it is to hear that you are fantasizing about my mouth, I must admit I can understand where you are coming from, I have fantasized what it would have been like to have shared my bed with you willingly, but we do not have time for that, instead how about we work something out to help you get over me. We both keep this desire between us, and I will willingly offer you my mouth, if need be we can do it nightly, but as time goes on we will wean you off of it, let you get your fill and then work you off of your desire, does this plan sound agreeable to you Maal?"

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]There was no end to the stupefying things that spilled from Vinata's lips, and Maal could but stand there and blink at the Ovri. Not only was the other nurse saying that - he too - had indulged in fantasies about him, he was also saying he was willing to share his bed, even if there was no time for it. For Maal's good conscience, he was even willing to keep it a secret.

As much was already more than Maal could truly handle in so many sentences, but what truly stilled him was the idea that Vinata saw it as treatment, meaning to remove himself from Maal's mind over time, and seemingly willing to do it for Maal's sense of honour. What followed after that was just pragmatism about when and how to go about it, and Maal felt... trapped. He had already said too much, and Vinata had yielded him every opportunity to act on his shameful desire, so what was he supposed to do then? Back-paddle and try to denounce his own words as a temporary bout of insanity? Should he correct himself, lie, and say he hadn't meant a word of what he'd said? That would not be honest towards either of them, would it? Would he add lying to his shame, when Vinata was trying to help him?

"I..." he cleared his throat, the sound reverberating between the walls of the lift, "I think this is madness."

They were, however, beyond the point of no return already. At that point, it was less shameful to accept the Ovri's offer of treatment, and have faith that he was not lying about Hylota's viewpoint as a mate and mother of his child. What reason had Vinata to lie? Hylota was his sister, and Maal knew how close they were.

"Yet I... I see merit in your treatment," he said, and blinked, wondering what came next. "I... When should we...?" Would they truly be so bold as to use the lift? Wouldn't that be highly irregular and preventing the rest of the crew transportation? He realised that Vinata might just have suggested that very thing, and he found himself responding to the notion already - his hearts beating faster in his cest. "I mean where do we..? Do you..?"

          As Maal made his belief that this subject was madness clear Vinata could not help, but feel that the more prudish nature of other cultures was to blame for this matter. Of course as he eventually decided to reluctantly take VInata up on his offer for relief, Vinata could not help, but smile to Maal, he felt as thought this would be good for the both of them, they would be able to work out some stress, and it would also give Vinata a small outlet to take his mind off events on the ship between now and his next shift. As Maal asked about the lift and where they could continue this Vinata smiled to Maal. "Well we could both go up to Deck 8 and go to my quarters and I could see to servicing you there, then you could make a detour back down to Deck 11."

Vinata looked upward and spoke to the Thea. "Thea resume lift and take us to Deck 8 please." With that Vinata looked to his fellow nurse and gave a gentle smile. "The thing you need to keep in mind about the Ovri, Maal is that our culture developed out of what was once a pleasure focused civilization, sex and pleasure are not seen as taboos. We understand that too much can be hazardous and that a healthy balance between sex and work can help build strong bonds, I hope that despite our past interaction at phaserpoint we can move past that and both heal, hopefully even grow close, I would not mind becoming friends with you. You are a respectable man, you might get a bit flustered, but I feel that is from how consistently you have been being pushed into highly emotionally taxing situations, I feel some pleasure for the sake of relaxation might just be the perfect thing for you Maal." Vinata gave a hopeful smile to Maal and waited for Maal's final decision as they came to Deck 11, Maal could get off here, head to Sickbay to meet up with Hylota now, or he could stay on and head up to Deck 8 with Vinata, it was up to Maal.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Maal was granted a few seconds to contemplate the offer, yet he was bound by his word, so when the lift stopped at Deck 11, he glanced out into the corridor, hoping not to be seen. It was as if he was shirking his duties because of his own lack of self-restraint and shameful fantasies, but he was on his mid-shift break, so the guilt was baseless, and he took a deep, shuddering breath as the lift started to move again.

"I... understand what you mean when you talk about your species," he said, picking his words carefully since he would offer counter-argument to something he had no right to question. He was a Starfleet officer, and cultural diversity was taught to him years back. That the Ovri culture did not match his own was of no consequence. It did not make it wrong, just different, and in accepting difference - the understanding that founded the Federation - he might have found a way to move on from Vasser's mutiny. He had never imagined Vinata would be willing to help him, so as he looked at the Ovri - actually looked him in the eye - Maal inclined his head. "Thank you."

The lift stopped at their destination, and feeling a bit numb, not fully having processed what was happening, he followed Vinata's lead, falling into step with the digitigrade gait of the other nurse. The momentary silence was extremely awkward to Maal, and he was not entirely sure how to break it either. Vinata had spoken about friendship and pleasure for sake of relaxation, and the former he was accustomed to, but he was raised that the latter would mean more than mere friendship. It felt highly irregular contemplating something consensual between them when the first time had clearly not been that at all. Another thought he had was that, perhaps, what had happened between him and Vinata's sister might just have made that incident during the mutiny more shameful for him.

"At the time of that mutiny... I may have had a predisposed opinion about Ovri. My... interest in your sister made me, perhaps, more susceptible to the... impressions you left me with, which still linger to this day. Before it happened, before the mutineer forced us to..." He cleared his throat, the anticipation making him lightheaded. "I may feel this shame because I had already thought of you in that context, before it happened."

Then, they were there, outside the Ovri's quarters.

          As Maal remained with Vanata and the doors closed on Deck 11, Vinata could not help but smile softly at the other male that shared his turbolift as they continued up to Deck 8. As Maal spoke of Vinata's words and he thanked him, Vinata did not know all of what was going through Maal's head, but he did share the mentality that this would help them move past the mutiny, that the two of them would be able to close the wounds between them and maybe even form a friendship, while most females did not bond with their children some males did make an attempt, and perhaps for Maal's sake he would try and be involved, after all Uncles were a thing with other races, and they could be involved with family.

As they got to Deck 8 Vinata stepped out first and gave a smile to Maal. "No need to thank me Maal, this is as much for you as it is for me. I hope that today shall be the first major step in getting our lives back to what they were before the mutiny. And who knows we might end up as good friends when this is over. Personally I would like to at least try and keep an eye on your child when you get it back. They would be my niece or nephew correct? Don't use those terms very often, among the Ovri the children of a sibling are not all that important in your own life." As Vinata took the lead through the deck he did not realize that he was catching Maal's eye as his hips swayed with each step.

As they neared Vinata's quarters and Maal brought up the point of how his actuons during the mutiny might have been influenced by the feelings that Maal had for Hylota, this made Vinata smile a little as he looked over his shoulder to give a sly grin. "So you are saying that you had a thing for the Ovri after my sister showed you just how wild the sex could be?" He chuckled a bit. "Well I cannot blame you the Ovri were once quite the pleasure oriented race." As they arrived at Vinata's room he took a deep breath, he might have brushed it off, but he did feel a bit uneasy that his sister might have been the reason for Maal's interest, he worried Hylota might turn him down on a relationship, and then Maal might turn his focus to Vinata in an unhealthy manner. He closed his eyes tight and took a deep breath, he needed to give Maal more credit than that, he was his own man, not some child.

Vinata opened the door to his rather simple room and walked inside. "Come on in Maal. I guess for what it matters we do have options on where we can do this. You can lay or sit on my bed." He motioned to his bed, well made and recently cleaned, he had taken special care to ensure no one would learn of what he had done with Lucan there. "There is also the desk area, you could take a seat and I would pleasure you...or we could take this to the sonic shower to ensure no evidence survives." He chuckled at the last statement, in the back of his mind Vinata wondered just how much sex he would have in his shower.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]When Vinata had spoken about the unhatched child he'd begotten with Hylota, Maal realised that Vinata was already an integral part of his future, so it made a lot of sense that they were taking the initiative to overcome the incident that lay between them. Yet at the same time, what would happen between them in doing so was so different from what Maal had been taught; what a sound relationship with a sibling to the woman he was in a relationship with was. He had merely been able to nod in affirmation to what the Ovri told him.

Once inside Vinata's quarters, and with his thoughts still caught on what kind of a species the Ovri had once been, Maal was presented with a some choices. He could not shake the feeling, that it felt as if they were conducting some kind of business transaction. As if he was requesting a specific program at a Ferengi holosuite in some port. It was not the case, yet it felt so... impersonal. The mere promise of what was to come was making him hard in anticipation, but he was not sure how to conduct himself. What did stand out, when Maal thought about it, was how Vinata had said not to thank him, but that the interest was mutual.

So, breath quickened, and his hearts beating faster, he came to lean against the edge of the Ovri's desk, with his large yet steady hands on the desktop. "If... this is as much for you as it is for me," he said quietly, back-lit by the Azure Nebula outside the viewport in Vinata's quarters. "Then I assume you have a preference of your own?"

He thought his voice sounded thick as he watched the other nurse move in the Nebula's light, stirring at the sight, and wishing there was no clothing on the Ovri's body, just like that fateful day in the Recovery Ward.

          As Maal made his way into the room and went over to the desk Vinata followed along behind him and listened to what Maal had to say. Vinata rubbed his chin as he looked around his room. "Well considering you likely have a time restraint on how long I can keep you, I guess I should take the option that would be the fastest for you." Vinata approached Maal and motioned to the chair for the desk as he put a hand on Maal's shoulder. "You can take a seat and I will get a bit more presentable for you. I doubt you find these rather bland uniforms all that provocative." With that Vinata walked over to his bed and began to disrobe, undoing his boots and stepping out of them, stretching his toes out as he stood barefooted on the floor of his cabin.

Vinata kept his back to Maal as he undid his uniform and slipped out of it, opening his collar and working his uniform off of his shoulders, exposing his bare blue back as he slowly worked his hands from his sleeves and let the uniform hang around his hips. Reaching up Vinata stretched out, he wanted to give Maal a good show, make him feel less bad about fantasizing about him, this time Maal would see Vinata in a safe setting not under duress. Spreading his legs apart a bit Vinata slipped his hands to his hips as he began to push his uniform down, rocking his hips back and forth as he did it, he wanted to make a good show at the least.  Vinata took his time working the uniform off of each leg before he folded up his uniform and set it on his bed, with that he turned around to face Maal and smiled to the other man. "So, are you ready for me Maal?" Vinata gave a reassuring smile as he walked forward, his hips swaying as he walked, his bosom bouncing lightly with each step.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]When offered, Maal took his seat on the chair next to the desk he had been leaning on. Quietly, he watched Hylota's brother disrobe, the display more than enough to quicken him as he sat there. He began to breathe more deeply, his Klingon lust animating him even if he remained where he sat. His instincts, as Klingon, was to bite and to exert violence when matng, but he had since long learned the lesson of being gentle with females.

Only now, this was no female, as much as it seemed to be. Ovri were peculiar in that sense, but since he had been with Hylota - who had the powerful build of a male physique - the notion of being intimate with a male that appeared mostly female gave him no pause. Well, at least no more than usual, since he remained awkward about anything of the kind.

When Vinata stepped towards him, bared and showing that he was ready, Maal couldn't find the proper answer. It was a flaw of his, to not find the right words. The sight itself made it no easier, of course, as his brown eyes took in the sight of the bared Ovri body in the light of the Azure Nebula.

"I... might be," he said, his deep voice reverberating in his chest, and he could feel his heart beating fast. He caught himself being fully dressed and supposed that he should do something about it. Belatedly, he was getting back on his feet, and began to pull at his own uniform, shedding his jacket and unzipping his undershirt. He had no idea what he was doing any more, so he let the chips fall where they might.

          Vinata let out a cute melodious giggle as he looked to Maal as he tried to strip down quickly. Vinata stepped forward and put his hands on Maal's. "Here, allow me to help you, you look so flustered that you might rip your uniform in your rush." Vinata shook his head but still smiled as he moved Maal's hands away and continued where he had left off, undoing his uniform and helping to strip him don to so that he would be able to accept the pleasure that Vinata would be providing soon enough.

It did  not take much time to finally strip Maal down, but once he had been liberated from his clothes Vinata gently guided him back and encouraged him to sit. "Come Maal, sit down and relax, it is time I show you what I can offer when we are not being forced, allow me to show you the pleasure that you deserve." With that Vinata leaned in close and kissed the tip of his cock while one hand reached up and began to gently fondle his balls. As this went on Vinata continued to kiss Maal's cock, trailing kisses along the length before he let his tongue out and let it wrap around the base of Maal's cock before he lucked upwards, letting his tongue swirl around Maal's length and tease at the tip of his cock before Vinata opened his mouth and allowed Maal's cock to slip past his lips as he began to suck on Maal's length, keeping a firm hold on hos length while at the same time keeping the fondling of his balls, allowing extra pleasure to be felt all while doing his best to keep himself in a alluring position.

[Show/Hide]Unused to being serviced in quite that fashion, Maal did pause and let Vinata take control of the situation, since he was - indeed - a flustered fool in the face of such anticipation. His body was bared from its uniform before he tore the fabric, and he took deep breath to still the fiery urge in his Klingon blood. Eventually, he had been undressed, and when asked to seat himself, he did, feeling quite self-conscious about the entire situation - not just in regard to his own arousal.

That was when Vinata began, seemingly taking great delight in repeating what he had done to Maal during the mutiny. Then again, he did not do it the same way. This time, it was more elaborate, not just giving Maal the bare minimum of what had been required of him. No, the Ovri used his tongue in a fashion that Maal had not experienced in quite the same way. Oh, he'd been with Hylota, but this was... It seemed like Vinata was thoroughly enjoying himself. Seeing this, it eased his own guilt about having confessed to his daydreams about the blue-and-red skinned nurse - reliving that nightmare through a lens of attraction.

It was truly as if Vinata tried to siphon the semen out of him, and Maal made a groan that sounded more like a growl. He reached out to run his hand over the Ovri's neck, enjoying the texture and feeling the neck-muscles work in the motions he made. He could hardly credit his eyes, even if his sensitive member confirmed what was truly happening. This, yes, this was better than the Recovery Ward.

"T-This is extraordinary," was all he managed, grunting as his ridged phallus twitched in answer to Vinata's lips and tongue - the warm confines of his mouth. "Is... is there anything I can do for y-you?"

          As Maal's mind strayed to remembering the horrid events of the mutiny that they had lived through, as they began to be viewed less terribly and began to be pushed out of mind. It was not a complete fix, but it was the kind of progress that Vinata was hoping would be happening. He could only imagine the suffering that Maal felt with how isolated he had been and with all the stress that he had with Hylota's pregnancy and his own injuries from the mutiny, Vinata was sure it had all been rather harsh and difficult to handle, so the least he could do was try and help his fellow crewman.

Unlike Maal, Vinata had been able to get help, to have people that he was able to confide in and work with to get over his stresses, in truth the memory of what he had done the night before with Doctor Nicander was still fresh in his mind and was part of the reason that he did not want to use the shower or the bed, both had been used for his sexual matters far too recently for him to feel he should use them again, that and in this position at his desk chair they would be able to finish up quickly and Maal would be able to get on his way once more.

As Vinata sucked along the length of Maal's cock, swirling his tongue and doing his best to keep the other man stimulated, Vinata looked up at Maal as he asked about there being anything that he could do for Vinata, this made him pull back and smile up at Maal. "Well you could massage my forehead and touch the mark, for the most part I want you to relax and enjoy yourself, this is meant to be a good time for you, so just sit back and enjoy yourself." Vinata gave Maal a playful wink before he returned his tongue to Maal's length and began to pull it back into his mouth once more as he stimulated the other man.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]To sit back, this Maal could do. To relax, it was difficult, the tensions still there for him, but what Vinata was doing to him did serve to help ease those tensions. To touch him?

Aye, the mark. This he remembered from Hylota. Ovri did fancy their heads being stroked, and so he reached out with one large hand and put it on Vinata's bare scalp. The weight of his hand accidentally pushed Vinata's mouth further down along his length, and Maal gasped as he felt the crown of his hardness push into the back of the Ovri's throat. As gratifying as it was, he realised he had disrupted Vinata's pace. "My apologies," he breathed, a shiver coursing through his entire body and making the musculature under his skin ripple in reaction.

To make up for his error, he did begin to stroke the other Nurse's head with his thumb. Maal rubbed it across the mark upon his forehead, outlining the outer shape and then grazing across the center image. Meanwhile he did this, he could see past the Ovri's head too, mesmerised by the way that bottom of Vinata's rocked back and forth with each movement of the fellatio. Gradually, he was relaxing, enjoying himself... almost getting a bit carried away. While his cock only grew harder, throbbing in eager response to its fine treatment, and Maal rubbed Vinata's mark with his thumb, he found himself leaning forward a bit, so that his free arm could reach for that beckoning derriere he saw.

Before he knew it, he was rubbing Vinata's firm buttocks along with his mark, his three lungs shallow in breath, and his Klingon desires awakening. He remembered, from the Recovery Ward, how the mutineer had pushed a finger into Vinata, and how - as horrifying as the situation had been - the sight stayed with him still. Maybe Vinata...?

His Klingon rousedness had claimed him, and against his better reasoning, not knowing the Ovri's preferences, he soon let his middle finger slip down between those firm buttocks. He prodded the sphincter that had beckoned so for him, and his ridged cock answered in growth, the girth filling Vinata's mouth even more.

          As Maal got a bit aggressive and suddenly thrust and broke the pace Vinata gagged for a moment as the cock pushed to the back of his throat, this made Vinata glare up at the other man, he had agreed to help, but he had expected to be allowed to take things at his own pace to ensure that this remained pleasant for the both of them, this was a two way street they needed trust to ensure that this did not become something toxic, thankfully Maal seemed to realize his mistake and apologized for his sudden outburst, this got a moan around his cock from Vinata to show that he forgave Maal for his lustful action.

As Maal began to rub his thumb along the mark on Vinata's forehead the male Ovri let his eyes close as he savored the feeling of the tracing finger, letting the digit rub along his slightly scaled skin, the symbolic meaning clearly not lost on Maal, Vinata could only assume that Hylota had explained it or at least shown some level of interest at what had been done to her, in the end it did not matter, all that mattered was that Maal understood what to do. So in turn Vinata returned the act with what Maal wanted, taking a deep breath Vinata leaned forward, taking Maal deeper into his throat before he let out a croak around the cock, making the length of the member tingle with stimulation.

Vinata was a little naive of what was happening, he put too much faith in others being like himself, so as he got Maal more and more aroused he did not consider the Klingon desires and he remained ignorant of the things that were coming his way as Maal leaned forward and reached his hands to Vinata's ass, he remained ignorant of what was coming as he was rubbed and touched, but as Maal slipped his finger into Vinata's ass his eyes opened wide and he moaned in mild shock as he relaxed around the finger as it slid into him, it felt so strange, sure he had taken Nicander up the ass before, but a finger felt different, more slender, harder, it was rather strange, and oddly arousing as Vinata shuddered and moaned as he continued to suck and stimulate Maal's cock.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Maal had caught himself entirely too late when touching Vinata's rear, only realising what he was doing when the Ovri reacted. His own eyes widened, and he dared not breathe, thinking he had erred. The apologies were on his tongue, where he'd blame his Klingon genes getting the better of his upbringing, and that he'd never do something like it again.

But instead....

...Vinata had begun to moan all the harder, punctuating the stimuli of his croaking. Eyes still wide, not daring to stop rubbing his mark, Maal realised that the other Nurse was actually enjoying what he was doing. Just like Vinata was taking him closer and closer to a point where he'd climax - his fantasies relived - Maal was actually doing something that stirred the Ovri as well. So, with this in mind, Maal continued, taking more liberty as he reached across Vinata's back and prodded his rear. He had large hands, and good reach, so after a few thrusts, he could fit his whole middle finger inside Vinata.

Maal caught himself grunting in answer to the motions of the Ovri's nimble mouth and tongue, the vibration felt through his loins. He realised he'd fallen into rhythm with the Ovri too, his finger keeping pace with the movements along his ridged member. In short order, Maal was reaching a point where he struggled not to come right into the other Nurse's throat.

"I won't last," he said in warning, about to shed his seed, "if you want me inside you, you better climb into my lap... else... ngg..."

He bit his strong jaws together, looking down at the Ovri's face for an answer.

          Vinata worked diligently, letting out moans and shuddering as he took the penetrating finger the feeling of the thick firm digit moving inside of him, sliding along his internal walls, rubbing along his sensitive insides, pushing against his prostate with each pass, it made Vinata feel so good. He could feel his cock pushing out as time went on, the length firming and pushing its way out of its concealed internalized position, it all felt so good as Vinata swirled his tongue around Maal's cock, letting his firm and powerful tongue massage Maal and pleasure his powerful length, the moans adding tingling sensations along the length that were quickly massaged away as Vinata's tongue moved and rubbed back over every inch of Maal's cock.

As Maal began to get closer and closer to his climax and even let Vinata know he began to wonder how he should continue from here, he did like the idea of taking Maal up his ass and getting a nice big load inside of him, it made him feel oddly nice when Lucan did it, but then again if he gave his ass over Maal might realize that Vinata had given himself to someone else recently, and he might even figure out he had slept with Lucan...no it was better to just take Maal orally, let this be focused on "Healing". So Vinata kept licking and sucking, giving Maal as much pleasure that he could, it was a small shame he might not be able to get off before Maal had to leave...of course he coud just beat it off in the sonic shower, he had already taken enough of Maal's time, Maal was on the clock after all.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Turbolift | Between Decks | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]From his vantage point, Maal could not see the Ovri penis emerge from out of Vinata, and if he had - despite his experience thereof - he could have reached for it. As it were, he did continue knead his finger into the other Nurse while getting head, and since Vinata seemed to enjoy himself so much, he did have the presence of mind to introduce a second finger as well. Judging by the ease in which the Ovri could accommodate one finger, it was apparent he could take two.

Yet no more had he begun to do so when his own climax couldn't be contained any more. The Ovri knew what he was about, and there was a point where no one would be able to conserve himself. That point of no return was upon Maal, and since Vinata did not wish to stop and indulge himself, Maal cried out at last - trying as he might to keep churning his thick fingers into the Ovri.

When he came, his seed pumped into Vinata's waiting mouth, his Klingon semen entering a second Ovri. Maal roared in contentment, unable to deny himself the guttural call of satisfaction. His Klingon blood was strong, despite his upbringing, and with his free hand - earlier stroking the Ovri's mark - Maal seized Vintata's entire head. With his large hand wrapped around the bald alien's scalp, he pushed his ridged girth deep into Vinata's throat - the semen continuing to pump into him with each lasting moment of his climax.

Only when he came down from the heights of euphoria did he realise what he was doing, and immediately released Vinata - an apology in thought and in the look on his face, but his voice failed him at the moment.

Vinata was mildly frustrated with his choice to not focus on getting off, instead he was going to have to take care of himself before he had to go into work his shift, he could not risk taking up more time, but for the love of the stone mother did Maal have to pleasure him like he was, the constant fingering of his asshole was getting to him, he could feel the intimate rubbing against his prostate and it was making it so hard to focus at moments, but this might have been for the best. With his mind lost in a haze of pleasure Vinata was able to let his body move on instinct, sucking softly and working his tongue along the length of the cock, pleasuring Maal in a natural manner.

Things got a bit more intense though as Maal neared his climax, his movements seemed to grow more aggressive, his rubbing more firm on Vinata's brow and also along his prostate, the sensation made waves of pleasure surge through Vinata, his body shuddering and his cock twitching as it dripped silently with Vinata's arousal. His own breaths betraying his lust as he took long breaths as Vinata let his tongue work only to exhale and let out lustful chirps and croaks, the vibrations adding ever still to the stimulation that Vinata offered through his tongue and the constant suction, it all working to the ever nearing climax.

As Maal was finally pushed over the edge Vinata leaned in a bit closer as he tried to avoid dealing with a mouth full of cum, but this only got Mall going as his hand suddenly began to tighten, the pressure non Vinata's head was not uncomfortable, but it was clear he was not in control here as he was pulled into Maal's groin. As Vinata's face was pressed firmly to Maal's crotch he shuddered and fought to suppress a gag as the thick member pushed into the back of his throat. The sensation of Maal's cum surging down his throat made Vinata tense and tingle, it was an oddly pleasant sensation to say the least.

As things began to wrap up and Maal came back to his senses, pulling back and releasing Vinata's head, Vinata was able to suck and pull off of Maal's length. Clearing his throat Vinata looked up at Maal and smirked. He could see the shame on Maal's face, he needed to see that this was alright, that Vinata was not so weak and frail. "Got a bit into it there I see. Glad to know I could get you into the mood like that." Vinata let out a chirping chuckle. "You certainly have a thing for the Ovri." Vinata got up and stretched before he sat beside Maal. "So, I hope you feel a bit more comfortable around me, and less shameful about seeing me in a sexual light. Because honestly, as an Ovri, I like it a bit rough." Vinata kissed Maal on the cheek, a hopefully comforting and tender action, Vinata was still quite horny, but he did not want to keep Maal for too much longer.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]While catching his breath, Maal watched Vinata to make sure he hadn't been hurt. Quite on the contrary, the Ovri seemed quite pleased with the development, uncontrolled as it had been in the end on Maal's part. The other Nurse even leaned close to kiss his cheek in an almost prudish way, but Maal couldn't help but notice the state that Vinata had been left in. Sitting next to Maal, the Ovri's phallus swayed in its rigid state, even leaking from what Maal had done to Vinata. It seemed obvious that the Nurse was in need of sexual release too, but content with being left unattended.

"You are generous and kind," he rumbled as he got down from where he half-sat on the edge of the desk, and turned to face Vinata - his chest still heaving, sweat beading his brow. "Yet so am I... At least... I will try to be."

Having said this, he stepped up between Vinata's spread legs. He ran one brawny arm underneath a digigrade leg, and pulled him close - their breaths suddenly mingling between their faces. Maal was not about to leave Vinata wanting, so he seized that odd, alien member with his fist, and pushed his cock deep inside Vinata's anal passage. His ridged length had yet to become flaccid, still heard and quite sensitive. He grunted at the new tightness he felt, but he would give the Ovri as much as he could before his body failed him. Either he would come a second time, or his arousal would fail him because of what Vinata had done with his mouth, but either way... there was no time to waste.

He had little experience with phallus play, but he knew what he liked for himself. Thus, he stroked Vinata hard, and gave no mercy to his tight sphincter either. If Ovri liked it 'rough', then that was something Maal could give him, even if his own brutality surprised and scared him. Vintata would simply have to hold on to something, and accept how Maal would show his gratefulness.

As Maal chose to seize the situation and repay the favor that Vinata had given by bringing him to a climax, Maal easily caught Vinata off guard and was able to get control of the situation. Vinata was so aroused and feeling weak after his ordeals that he quickly caved to Maal's actions, allowing himself to be moved and repositioned to suit Maal's wishes. Vinata panted, his cock glistened with its natural lubricant, small beads collecting and sliding down along the length of Vinata's cock as he looked up at Maal, the light of the nebula played across Vinata's skin as he watched, his hands placed high on his chest, resting on his chest, just above his ample bosom as his heavy breathing made them rise and fall in a even rhythm.

Vinata allowed himself to lay back as Maal lifted his legs and moved them apart, exposing Vinata to him and allowing Maal to slide his cock into Vinata's anus, the saliva that Vinata had coated it with coming in handy as it served to lubricate Maal's cock as he pushed into Vinata. Vinata whined and shuddered as he did his best to relax around Maal's thick cock, allowing it to slide in as smoothly as possible. Vinata luckily did have a bit of a love for roughness with his sex, and as Maal took a firm hold of his cock Vinata moaned loudly as he shuddered and looked to Maal lustfully. "W-Well if you are feeling confident enough I guess I-I would not be opposed to this." Vinata moaned as the sensation of his cock being rubbed began to get to him.

Vinata was so close, his cock tingled and practically buzzed with pleasure, the sensations running from each segment of his cock, as each finger passed offer it, the tight warm hold, the slippery sensation from his natural lube, it was all so intense. Vinata found his focus slipping, his vision getting unfocused as Vinata struggled to maintain himself, all while each thrust from Maal sent fresh waves of pleasure through Vinata as the Klingon cock rubbed along his sensitive insides, pleasuring the prostate and stimulating the tight ring of Vinata's behind. It honestly did not take much to send Vinata over the edge, only a short fucking and Vinata began to chirp in pleasure before suddenly croaking out in pleasure as he climaxed, his thick seed spraying out of the head of his cock, splattering down over Vinata's chest as he laid there panting and looked to Maal with a smile. "Y-You truly are amazing Maal."

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Grunting, Maal had sodomised to Ovri to his full contentment, and the warm friction inside Vinata had helped keep Maal engorged enough. He had stroked that segmented Ovri phallus as if it had been his own, and it seemed the other nurse enjoyed it well enough. The sight of Vinata in the Azure Nebula's light, however, was what truly kept Maal hard enough to finish off what had begun.

Luckily, for his own esteem and the Ovri's delight, Maal lasted all the way, and his eyes widened when Vinata's semen began to pump out through Maal's hand. It landed in thick ropes across the Ovri on the desk, decorating those bouncing breasts and the flat belly. Because of how hard Maal's grip around Vinata's cock was, some even sprayed as far as his neck and chin. As for himself, Maal had been pleased so thoroughly that he finally began to wind down, and vacated the Ovri when his hardness had abated a bit. By that time, the other nurse had stopped chirping, coming down from the heights of euphoria, and spoke to him.

Maal could but smile a little in an embarrassed way. "It was the least I could do," he rumbled quietly, and ran his fist from base to tip a couple of times more, like he used to do himself, and milked out whatever was left inside Vinata's considerable length. "So thank you in kind..."

Having said this, he awkwardly released Vinata and stepped away, glancing towards his clothes. "I do not wish to seem ungrateful, but I am overdue. I need to see Hylota as well, and speak with her about the egg. Will you..." He blinked returning to hold out a hand to the Ovri and to help him up, "Will you be all right if I left you now?"

He wondered also, if he would be late to see her - the mother of his child. It still didn't seem right, what he had just done, but he had to put faith in Vinata's word.

Panting Vinata was in a muld haze of arousal before he manged to shake his head to regain his focus and composure as he looked to Maal and gave a gentle and warm smile as he nodded. "I assure you I will be quite alright, it is not as though this is the first time I have had sex like this, but it is indeed one of the more pleasant encounters I have ever had." He ran his hand down along his chest and smeared his own seed over his skin before let out a sigh. "I must say I am a glad that I could get you to go this far with me, it felt good for the both of us." As Maal then spoke of having to get going Vinata waved Maal away. "Go, I can take care of this mess on my own, you have your own duties to attend to. Go, if my sister asks what kept you, you can always just say that we had crossed paths and taken some time to smooth out things between us, and hopefully we will be able to spend more time together to make sure that this relationship is quite smooth." Vinata smiled and chirped happily. "On a bit more of a serious tone, if you want to discuss my sister at all we can talk more next time, I am sure that she will be getting under your skin soon enough considering the matters at hand." Vinata sighed as he pushed himself up and began to make his way to his sonic shower to begin cleaning up.

Hylota was waiting outside of Sickbay as she waited for Maal, she had her arguments and plan already laid out, she knew that her child would not be safe on the Theurgy, and she had no emotional ties to it, the wisest thing for her to do was send it away to be raised among her people, she had done research into how the Klingons handled those they deemed weak, and she did not trust the human leadership at this time, it was only logical to go with her choice, but she was sure that logic was not going to win the argument here today, so she was prepared to hammer her points home and hit the emotional points so that Maal came around to seeing things her way.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Having left Vinata behind, at long last, Maal made his way down to Main Sickbay. In his thoughts, the encounter with Hylota's brother was still at the forefront of his mind. While the stigma of their first encounter had definitely been lifted, he couldn't help but think he had put himself in trouble with Hylota - the mother of his unhatched child.

Therefore, he was a tad startled to find her waiting for him in the corridor, just outside the entrance for medical staff. He had thought to find her inside, and he had yet to collect his thoughts, making him almost stumble when seeing her.

"Hylota," he rumbled, coming to a stop a mere couple of feet in front of her. He cleared his throat, scratching the back of his neck, and decided he definitely had to offer some kind of explanation. "I am sorry I am late for our dat-" Maal stopped himself when he realised it wasn't even considered a date. Well he had thought of it as such, old-fashioned as he was and raised among humans. In truth, this was more like a meeting, wherein they'd decide on the fate of their egg.

Her egg? He was not entirely sure what was correct there.

"I'm sorry I'm late," he amended, keeping it simple and giving her a sharp-toothed, embarrassed smile. "I ran into your brother, and we... And because of Vasser's mutiny, we took the opportunity to talk about what happened, and put it behind us. I think we have, now. I do not think Vinata resents me for my actions any more, at least."

How much should he tell her? He was already babbling like an imbecile. He decided to stop there and let Hylota speak instead.

As Maal arrived and already seemed to be rather flustered, Hylota chose to just brush it off. Maal was here to talk about the matter of the egg, he had also ended up late, so she was sure that was playing into how he was acting, but as Vinata was brought up in the conversation Hylota had a horrid fear that Maal might have screwed things up and made the matter with her brother far worse than it had been before this with his inability to navigate tense social moments, but as he then spoke of how he believed he had smoothed things over with Vinata, Hylota just blinked, she was a bit surprised at how much had happened, she wondered how males could get along so well...rumor from her youth had it that males resolved matters with sex and a part of her mind imagined it briefly before she chose to move things on.

Closing her eyes Hylota smiled and then nodded before she opened them once more. "To be honest I do not think he ever held anything against you, the way he saw it you were just as raped as he was in a way, you were forced to use him, while he was powerless to help stop it. I am sorry my own vitriolic behavior prevented you from getting closure from him sooner, but  it seems things have worked out in the end." Hylota took a moment to pause, in truth she did not know how to go forward, Maal might see the egg as hers, but to Hylota the egg was just an egg, she had no right to it since she did not wish to raise the child here, as such the choice on what to do with it was less about what she wanted, and more what she felt was the safest bet for the child's future.

Looking into Mall's eyes Hylota spoke. "I know you likely do not want to hear this, but my choice on the matter of the egg is simply this,  at the next port we make, the egg will be cryogenically frozen and transported over to their care with simple instructions. Keep the egg frozen and have it transported to Ovri space. There it will be taken to my home world of Dejino, there it can be safely thawed and cared for as the embryo develops, once hatched you can either choose to have the child frozen to wait for you, or have the raised in the community like all other Ovri until you can come reclaim him. Does this setup suit you Maal?" Hylota was not sure what she would expect in response, but she was prepared to defend her point, Maal needed to see things her way.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Not knowing for sure what he had expected when telling Hylota immediately about where he'd been, he did know he hadn't expected her to be quite so understanding. That was all because of the aforementioned vitriolic behaviour of hers, perhaps, but then again, he hadn't really told her what he had done to smooth things over with her brother, and he was not entirely certain he'd be able to tell her outright what they had just done. Vinata might have told him he had nothing to fear in that regard, but his own cultural upbringing prevented him from breaching the topic.

Thankfully, Hylota wasted little time before getting to the topic of discussion they had to deal with, and Maal gestured while he listened, suggesting that they'd walk while they spoke of the matter with the unhatched egg. He let Hylota decide if she wanted to venture deeper into Sickbay or leave the area - walking the corridors of the Theurgy.

"I am... of a different opinion," he admitted as they walked, and he thought about his argument - collecting his thoughts despite how much Vinata had managed to distract him. Hylota was distracting in her own right, of course, the female Ovri having been the first of the Vojona siblings to 'distract' him. As it were, he didn't recall exactly how things had developed between Hylota and him back when he'd impregnated her, but he did recall that she was in heat, and there had been a lot of pheromones involved.

"How can we be certain that the egg arrives safely to Dejino if we just hand it over to someone in our next port?" he said, the timbre of his voice echoing lightly between the bulkheads. "What if the Orion Syndicate gets its hands on the egg and subject our child to a life of slavery? An unhatched egg would be highly valuable, since the child would get indoctrinated in its role from the moment it hatches. Would it not be better that the egg remained with us, so that we can personally protect it?"

Maal looked towards Hylota and her silhouette - so different from her brother yet equally appealing in her own right.

Hylota nodded in understanding of Maal's points and she spoke in a very firm tone as made her counters, in truth she had some worry about her child, she knew that Maal likely cared a lot for it, and she wanted this to be as painless for him as she could make it. "I understand that there is a risk of abduction, but as it is the egg might never survive to full development, like a half klingon special steps will likely need to be taken to ensure healthy development. It would be more of an investment than slavers would be willing to make. As a last resort we can make it so that the egg is transported by the Federation, despite our outlaw status the egg would easily be identified with simple scanning. As it is now, no parasite could take it as a host, and the Federation would have no justifiable reason to deny the egg from returning to the Ovri as they are a member race."

Hylota slowed as she looked to Maal, the next point she was making was a bit more cold and she felt eye contact would help smooth things over as they went. "And as for the safety aboard the ship. I recall the birth of the clutch being during a battle, and during conflict both of us are needed for active duty, meaning we would have to leave our infant unattended during every fight, we also risk their death in the crossfire, especially in the very vulnerable stages of development. And what would happen if we died, or if we failed, our child would be far better off away from this ship than stranded here."

Hylota allowed her eyes to roam over Maal, he was a strong man, a proud man, and a caring one. Truth be told he was good material to care for a child, and if she was ever to try being a parent like in the mammalian model he was a good choice for a partner. Sure her interest in him during her heat was very primal and basic, at least Maal had seem some attraction in her after their initial union. It had made her feel as though she should at least give him an attempt to be more than a usual Ovri mother. "I do not know what the future holds for us Maal, but if you choose to become the father of this child one day, I will do what I can to learn to be a mother with you. It is not in my nature, but for you Maal it is something I will try to learn." Hylota hoped Maal would understand that she was doing her best to be more for him.

[Show/Hide]In most matters, Maal was not a quick thinker, but a thorough one. He listened to Hylota when she were offering her arguments in relation to the child being lost in transit to Dejino. She was probably right in how the wellbeing of the child was already in jeopardy to begin with, the chances of its survival low already. Slavers might not be able to care or the eggs, yes, but that was - to Maal - not an argument against keeping the egg in their care. Quite the opposite. Either the slaver could take care of the egg, and the child would be a slave from the moment it hatched, or the slaver couldn't, and the child would die before it hatched.

Would the child not get the proper attention and care, given the best possible survival, if it was taken care of by someone who actually cared? "Starfleet..." Maal mused quietly when Hylota suggested that the very fleet that persecuted them might see the child safely delivered to Dejino since the Ovri were new members of the Federation. "They might, unless these parasites have it sent to the Science Division first, without informing the Ovri, in which case it will grow up in a lab. Perhaps I am being paranoid..."

Of course, there was the matter of how exposed the Theurgy was to danger, how likely it was that the child could suddenly be bereft of either or both of its parents. To this, Maal mumbled in regret, the sound reverberating between the bulkheads of the corridor. "Yet I hear of the makings of a galactic war, and how no planet might be safe," he offered quietly, referring to how the parasites sought to tear down order and structure, and found all societies to be festering wounds on existence, yet Hylota overrode his quiet comment by rounding on him and pinning him there with her adamant stare. She seemed to be studying him, for some reason.

What she said next gave him pause, and he barely dared breathe lest he'd break the spell of the moment. Hylota, this proud, efficient woman of the Ovri race, were offering to adapt to his culture for his sake and the child's. "I do take my responsibility for our unhatched child seriously. Anything else would be without honour," he ventured, wondering if she was truly earnest in her words. Of course she would be, otherwise she'd never say them. She is willing to do it for my sake, to learn and be more than she was raised to be.

In part, it led back to their unfinished argument about what to do with the egg, since she was willing to care for the child like a mother would on Earth, but on the other side of the spectrum was the obvious question of where the two of them stood. Does this mean...?

"So you are willing to be my partner in raising our child, a parent... I thank you, for my concerns have been for the child's parentage since you told me Ovri women didn't raise their children. Yet... where does that leave us?" he asked quietly, looking into her dark eyes. He raised his hand to her face, tracing a rough thumb over her smooth brow, the other fingers running over her cheekbone."What of you and I?"

Hylota sighed as she looked to Maal as he talked about his paranoid fears. "It would be a risky thing to do something to the egg, and they would know that the only Ovri on these ships were my brother an me. I have no doubt that the Ovri councils have at least made the case that my brother and I are unfortunate bystanders, to withhold the egg would just sour relations, especially since there is no way to justify withholding a child, and even if Starfleet lied and said the egg was without instruction, the Ovri would claim sanctity over the egg." Hylota was very firm in her belief, she knew her people, she knew that they would act a certain way in the matter of children and she was banking on that for her child.

Of course as the topic of a galactic war came up Hylota sighed. "Ok even if a galactic war were to occur, I doubt the Ovri would get involved, we are so distant from the Federation, We have very little claimed along the lines of settlements on planets, most of our territory is in stations  and asteroid colonies. What benefit would there be in coming after the Ovri?" A part of Hylota wanted to believe war would never come to her people, that her home and people would be safe, more of her knowing that at the first signs of a war entire cities would go dark to remain hidden throughout a war.

As the conversation then turned towards the compromise that Hylota was willing to make to be part of her child's life despite her peoples established conventions for child raising, to take part in the small percentage of family groupings. To see Maal soften at the prospect of having an actual family with Hylota. "I would do my best to learn, it is not something I think I will take to easily, but I know the feeling of having a mother who could not be interested in the clutch she birthed, I know the yearning for some level of recognition, to be more than just genetics passed on." As her check was then caressed Hylota looked to Maal with her dark eyes as they moved into the other big question, about where they were, what had become of them as a couple. To this Hylota smiled softly. "I cannot speak to the distant future, Ovri are notorious for having very fluid relationship, moving from one to the next, but I can say that I do enjoy the gruff and rough Klingon personality I have been seeing. You fascinate me, your passion is alluring, and you treat me like a woman despite how I look. Granted I think that could be chalked up to the fact that Klingon women are almost as impressive as the men in their strength." Hylota gave Maal a warm smile.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Hearing Hylota confirm that he'd understood her right, even if she did mention how Ovri were not the kind to settle down, Maal felt humbled that she was willing to be his mate. To even hear her admitting to attraction, after having been so angry with him because of Vinata and the mutiny, it was as close to a feeling of redemption that Maal could get. It was more profound than the forgiveness of Vinata, and how they had worked out the unsettled matters between them. She was very protective of her brother, and yet she was willing to be with him despite what had happened.

"You have no idea what that means to me," he rumbled, the chest of his uniform creaking as he took a deep breath - his smile earnest in its mix of shared warmth and relief. "And while Klingon women might be formidable... they are nothing compared to you."

He said this, and slowly stepped closer, sealing their understanding - for as long as it may last - with a thorough kiss right there in the corridor. He had put both his hands to the sides of her head, and parted her lips with his own. Kissing her deeply, he felt her unique taste, and he knew that there might be pheromones affecting his judgement, but he did not care. It felt right, and he even stirred in response to her, regardless what had just transpired in her brothers' quarters. That was quite secondary, of course, to what lay between them, and the matter yet settled.

When he finally parted from her, his lips more than anything else since he still stood close, he spoke anew. "I trust your judgement, and I respect your opinion about your people and what they might do," he grated thickly against her lips, breathing hard though his nostrils after the kiss, "would you be willing to see one of the counsellors, though? It is a life, a life we have begotten, and regardless its chances of survival, it could be a good thing to have an objective opinion about this, since ours are not fully aligned. Would you be willing to see one with me?"

          Hylota had not been expecting a kiss; as she was pulled in to share the intimate moment with Maal, Hylota blinked and a moment before allowing her lips to part and she closed her eyes as she savored the moment. Truly she had no idea what agreeing to take on a maternal position entailed, she did not know how much this gesture meant when it was offered, truthfully she had no clue what she was getting into, but she would learn she was committing to taking this seriously, she was committed to becoming what was needed for making things work with Maal, to make things work for her child.

As the two of them broke this kiss Hylota looked into Maal's eyes as he spoke and Hylota nodded in agreement. "As much as I would like for you to just agree with me I do find your point on getting a non biased third party is the best option for getting a conclusive answer to our predicament, I would not like to force you to going with my option and I am certain that I would not stop making the case that your choice was equally as poor in my opinion. In truth we both hold a flawed solution for this situation and both of our solutions have different benefits and drawbacks and a third party will be able to tell us much more definitively what a good choice would be."

In the back of her mind Hylota was telling herself how she was right, she did not believe that Maal's idea held any value, a child was a liability and a hindrance to them, honestly the best outcome would be for the egg to be hatched, genetics corrected and for the child to be frozen, the Ovri part of it would no doubt make that option more stable for an extended period of time. Hylota could tel from what she had seen that most parents loved watching their child grow, to care fr them and to help them develop, sure that had it's appeal, but in their current setting there was just too much risk of that being cut short in some crisis, and Hylota was sure that the counselor would see it her way.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]It was almost a sense of accomplishment that came to Maal when Hylota didn't just agree with his suggestion to discuss their options with a counselor, but that she approved of it as well.

"Aye," he rumbled and raised a hand to stroke the side of her face with the back of his large hand. "I will submit a request to Hayden O'Connor, and we'll see if she is available. Since she was there, during he battle, I think it would be a good thing she was the one to see us. I understand she was highly involved during your brief pregnancy as well, so I can think of no better counselor to consult in this matter."

Having said this, Maal leaned in to kiss the mother of his future child again, the taste making him want more, even if they were in the middle of the corridor. He put his strong hands on her hips as he did so, and he cared not that a couple of officers walked by them, grinning and chuckling at the sight of the Klingon and the Ovri that had been in their way. Eventually, Maal was able to pull away, or Hylota stopped him. In the haze that followed, he wasn't sure which. Yet either way, he had no regrets.

"How much time before you must be back in Sickbay?" he asked, even though he knew the shift rotations. "I mean... Do you have any patients waiting for you in the Recovery Ward?"

Hylota listened to Maal's suggestion, the reasoning was sound that they should seek out the third opinion of O'Conner since she had been involved in the pregnancy since the first signs up to the point where Hylota had finally delivered. It was nice to have someone that was informed of the situation stepping in to help sort things out in the end, it would ensure that Hylota would not have to explain her points on the health of the egg and how that was a vital that the egg be allowed to develop while in more close and safe observation. Hylota would have to be careful though, she knew that O'Conner was a much more emotional person and would likely be willing to side with Maal.

Hylota was considering her best course of action to make sure that her appeal would be the one to win out Maal began to turn his attention more towards Hylota, the full depth of her agreement not sinking in for her, but as Maal leaned in and took a passionate kiss Hylota snapped back to reality and leaned into the intimate act, allowing Maal to go as far as he wanted, ignoring the world around them as she just savored the moment in silence. As the two broke their kiss Hylota looked to the passing crew and strained to listen to what they had to say before her attention directed back to Maal once more. As Maal began to ask about Hylota's scheduled and what things she had to do for the day.

Hylota gave a coy little grin and chuckled. "Well I have no real obligations right now, and I have been advised to take my time with my recovery.  If you are insinuating what I think, and you are wanting to take a small little break to share an intimate moment together in private, well I am sure that I can find the time for that Maal." Hylota put a hand on Maal's powerful shoulder and gently rubbed as she smiled to him. "I would also like to hear what you have planned for our future together, seeing as you have clearly put more thought into this than I have at present." Hylota gently slid her hand down along Maal's arm and took his hand in her own as she looked around before she began to walk. Leading Maal towards a more isolated area where they could be alone.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Evidently, Hylota was not the least opposed to celebrate their new accord, leading him somewhere more private. He let her, still a bit in a haze after that kiss they'd shared. Her grip around his large hand was strong, but she didn't have to pull him along with her. He was keen on following her.

As for her question, what ideas he might have for this relationship between them, he knew that his own preferences - being Terran in his upbringing - would seem strange to her. "Even if I have no House, or even a solid claim on Klingon traditions," he rumbled as he followed Hylota down the corridor, "I would like to name you my Par'Mach'kai."

He knew that it wouldn't say much, so he supposed he had to explain it. "It is a Klingon term of endearment, used to refer to one's partner," he said in his deep voice, finding himself looking at the outline of her uniform as they walked. "I would share quarters with you, if you'd be so inclined, but I know that monogamy is a foreign concept for Ovri... So I would not ask it of you. We share duties in Sickbay already, but now, we'd share a home here on the Theurgy. Do you think you'd be willing to live with me?"

He would understand if she didn't want to, of course. He had great respect for Hylota's integrity.

As Maal began to talk about his hopes an plans, of how he intended to make a life with Hylota as his partner, to commit herself to him and to live with him. It was not that foreign a concept for males and females to pair up together, sticking with a favored partner for a period of time, among the Ovri a woman was often expected to see to the well being of their partners, so she was not having much trouble coming to a conclusion as to what she wanted to do as she looked to Maal. "Well I would not mind sharing quarters with you, the company might do me some good, isolation can be a bit much considering how social Ovri are as a species." There might not be the same level of commitment to a single partner, but they still committed to being with the community.

Hylota let out a sigh and looked to Maal once more as she seemed to study him. "I do not know how things will play out, I know there are some who have adopted the family model that has been seen among humans and other species, but it is hard to break the habit of communal family, to make sure I do not feel overwhelmed you do not mind if I try and keep my brother in the loop with the child?" Hylota was not so hopeful that she would be able to keep a relationship together for decades, but if Maal was as dedicated as he seemed, she figured she could make it work.

As the two of them moved into a private space Hylota smirked slightly and let out chuckle. "My this brings back memories, you, me, a nice quiet place and one moment of passion...of course this time I am not in heat, and I am your superior now." Hylota smiled as she wrapped her arms around Maal in a comforting embrace.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Maal would, of course, not offer any protest about Vinata Vojona being in the loop about their unhatched child. How could he, and why would he? Vinata was her brother. He just had to figure out how he felt about the earlier... development between himself and the male Ovri. "Of course, I understand if you need someone close to you, and he's the only other Ovri aboard, so he can understand you more than I ever might."

The secluded place they found, after Maal opened a grate in the wall, was a Jefferies tube chute that you could stand tall in, with maintenance tunnels leading in both directions along the bulkhead, which you could only pass through if you crawled. But next to them was a ladder that led to the decks below and above them. The platform they stood upon, right next to the ladder and the gaping hole in the deck plating, was over two square meters wide, and more than enough for them both to face each other and embrace one another.

Her words, they made Maal chuckle deep down in his throat, being reminded about how it all had started. As he reminisced in quietude for a couple of seconds, he ran his large hands up and down her lean back and sides, enjoying the feeling of her strength. As she had said, she might not be as strong as a Klingon woman, but she still reminded him about the women of his home world. Perhaps, in being raised on Earth, there was something primal inside him that compelled him to have fallen in love with the Ovri. The child of theirs, and the conception of hir, that had merely been the catalyst of something far stronger.

At least that was what Maal thought,when he leaned in and kissed Hylota anew. "You are superior in many ways," he said in rueful flattery, hands slowly roaming her body on the outside of her uniform. "Yet off duty, I might not be as inclined to take orders. Then, I might turn the tables on you, as the humans tend to say."

As the two medical officers ducked back into the jefferies tube and stood together alone in the cramped space and Maal let out a chuckle over what Hylota had to say about their situation, Hylota could not help but chuckle along with him as she leaned into his strong and powerful frame, pushing him towards a wall as she looked him in the eye. "Well if I remember correctly, Klingons like their women to be more defiant and a force to be overcome in their passion, or something like that." Hylota leaned in and kissed along Maal's jawline, eventually licking him playfully before she spoke once more. "I would be rather disappointed if you were to just roll over and let me take you however I wanted. If there is no challenge behind something, what even is the point. That is kind of why I like you Maal, you have a drive to you, a willingness to act, to go head first into a situation and take things head on. It is not the Ovri way, but I am a little tired of the Ovri way, my time with Starfleet has shown me that sometimes a direct method can work out quite well."

Hylota allowed Maal's hands to wander her figure, massaging her gently as she moved her legs independently, her boots moving against each other as Hylota twisted in a strange manner before kicking the locks open, releasing her legs, allowing her to step out of them and rub her legs against Maal as her own hands explored Maa's body, reeling him up and reaching to begin stripping him out of his uniform. "You know Maal I am rather curious, what would you do if you were to come with me back to my worlds instead of going back to earth? Personally I do not feel much interest for remining with Starfleet when all of this comes to an end. There have just been too many situations and problems, I cannot look at the Federation the same any longer, if we were to go back, would you consider living among the Ovri, you would easily be able to find work without a doubt, new ideas and perspectives are always welcome among the Ovri." As Hylota spoke her hand drifted slowly down Maal's body before cradling his groin to begin massaging him through his uniform while her other hand continued to slowly pull the clothes down. "We could buy an estate, something beautiful in the canyon region perhaps." As Hylota opened up to Maal, it was clear from the tone in her voice that she was still dealing with a lot of strain and just wanted to escape. 

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Feeling Hylota's hands undressing him while they kissed in the confines of the maintenance chute, Maal knew he had to claim what he wanted for himself on his own, since the first time he'd been with Hylota had all been about her needs - her having been in heat. She even encouraged him, wanted that which his blood compelled him to do. Human mating was all about equal footing and equal rights, respect and consideration. It was not in his genes, but he had been raised that way.

Between the greedy exchange of kisses, feeling his upper body being stripped by Hylota - jacket and undershirt open at the front and tugged back behind his shoulders - Maal heard his Ovri mate speak of her homeworld. It was... a lot to consider given the present circumstances, to decide on whether he wanted to leave Starfleet with her, but he did want to see where she and her brother came from. He growled in anticipation when she cupped her webbed, four-fingered hand over his throbbing member, still restricted in the confines of his uniform trousers, and even sore after what had happened between him and Hylota's brother. Sensitive still, he fought to get some skin of Hylota's on display as well, and his answer came as a pleased growl deep down in his throat.

"I crave to be with you, and if that's what you wish, I'll demand shoreleave for months - if we make it through this - to see your home," he grated and was finally able bare the front of Hylota's chest as well, jacket and undershirt opened, and then ran his large hands down to her firm bottom, which he took great pleasure in groping whilst he kissed her. "I will make my mind up then, after you've shown me your world."

Since his arms were restricted by his jacket and undershirt, he paused to yank them off his brawny arms, and then proceeded to unbuckle and open her trousers as well, so that he could resume to run his hands over her bottom, and even stroke her sex in anticipation for it to open for him.

Hylota let out a soft coo as she was rubbed along her smooth crotch, the slowly building pleasure making sure that it would not remain closed for much longer, but as Hylota looked into Maal's eyes she sighed as she reached up to rub her hands over his powerful shoulders, she wished that he would just abandon Starfleet for her, but she knew better, she knew he was a loyal man, one who would not abandon the organization whose ideals he had agreed with long ago. Hylota would just simply have to work hard to show him that she was worth more of his devotion than Starfleet was now.  With a lustful sigh Hylota leaned in for a kiss and leaned her crotch into Maal's caressing hand as she began to open up, her damp slit opening up with desire as she held back on her kiss, she did not want Maal to end up in some lust addled state, she wanted to enjoy her time with him.

As she broke the kiss Hylota spoke in a hushed lustful tone to him. "Oh I am sure I will find a way to convince you to stay with me. Or at the very least convince you that you that the two of us deserve some time off alone and away from all of this when it is over. I swear I will never set foot on another ship again to serve as a medical officer. I will get a respectable lab somewhere, work under a researcher and work my way up into a respectable position. I do not want any more adventures like this if things keep going as they have been." Hylota sighed and kissed Maal once more before she looked deep into his eyes. "But that is enough bellyaching over such things, for now how about we just focus on us, on this moment, and enjoy the pleasure we have earned." Hylota kissed Maal once more, this time slipping her tongue into his mouth as she waited for him to take the next step for them.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]"Agreed," said Maal, also keen on what they shared in the moment rather than the distant future, and sealed their accord - his lips meeting hers.

Now, the Ovri kiss was deeper, and he felt the familiar sensation of euphoria, knowing at some level about the pheromones but not caring in the slightest. It might not be natural for Humans or Klingon, but in sharing intimacy with an Ovri, it was nothing strange. He knew this from experience and learning, his mind often having dwelt upon Hylota over the past couple of weeks. And her brother, as wrong or odd as it had seemed until not so long ago. He rode the rush of desire that coursed through him, and ran a large hand behind her bare head.

His other hand continued to dwell betwixt her legs, delving inside her more with each rhythmic thrust of his middle finger. Soon, as sweet has her upper lips were, Maal could not restrain himself. He wished to taste her nether ones too. He did not bother to shed the open jacket and undershirt from Hylota's arms, instead crouching down and freeing her legs completely from trousers and any Starfleet underwear alike. Then, he pulled her legs on top of his broad shoulders, and hoisted her up into the opening in the deckhead where the ladder led towards the next deck. He held her steady on top of his shoulders, allowing her to grab a hold on the rungs of the ladder if she so wished, while he applied himself to pleasing her with his mouth.

For oh, how much he ached to join with her, he also wished to linger on her desire, to make her feel good. So with lips and tongue, he prepared her for what was to come, whilst she had to cling on to the ladder.

As Maal seized control of the moment and took hold of Hylota, crouching down and lifting her legs up, Hylota was taken aback a bit as she suddenly found herself off balance and in need of support. Thankfully the ladder did provide ample support as she took hold of it and let out a huff at Maal as she smirked at him. "You know you could of at least warned me of what you were intending to do there Maal." She smiled more as she watched him moving in close, Hylota closed her eyes and tightened her grip on the ladder as Maal went in and began to lick at her slit, her folds swelling with bloodflow as they parted and exposed her sensitive flesh once more to her Klingon lover. As Hylota allowed herself to be licked and kissed by Maal she could not help but thing about how lucky she was to have sorted things out with him. If she had remained angry at him, allowed her spite to keep them apart, it would have kept her from a man that really did care, sure it was a bit much at times, but she could grow used to it, besides she could not go through her live with just her brother forever, they both needed to move on, and perhaps this was the point in their lives when that would happen, she could not force him to raise her child with her, and she did not know if Vinata would remain with the Federation.

Hylota sighed happily as she allowed herself to be eaten out, tightening her grip on the rung of the ladder Hylota felt the tension and the strain in her arms, it felt oddly nice as she controlled her position, shifting her hips to rock them into Maal's face as he licked, savoring the feeling as she relaxed as best she could before she spoke softly to Maal. "You know Maal, despite how things have gone, even with the hell we have had to endure. I am glad we met, you are truly a treasure. I do wish that you will take me up on my offer of coming home with me. I know you are dedicated to the Federation, but I do not want to give you up. I guess I am just selfish, I want everything to go my way, for things to be as I desire. I guess it is part of my impulsive nature." Hylota cooed and tightened her hold on the ladder once more as she opened her eyes and looked to Maal before she shifted her hold, putting more weight on Maal's shoulders and locking one arm around the ladder as she took her other arm and reached down to caress Maal's forehead, running her fingers gingerly over his ridges, it felt odd, so firm and rough, but oddly nice all the same. Hylota hoped Maal would recognize the importance of the action, the recognition of his skills and abilities and the desire to be with him. If there were people among her species who could maintain a family and a healthy relationship, then she would be able to do it as well, or by the Stone Mother she would try.

[ Nurse Maal (https://uss-theurgy.com/w/index.php?title=Nurse_Maal_(NPC)) | Vinata's Quarters | USS Theurgy ] Attn: @Zenozine 
[Show/Hide]Maal knew of the significance of the marks that the Ovri wore on their foreheads, so when he found Hylota touching his, he raised his eyes and looked up upon her without ceasing his ministrations. She appeared earnest in her ambition to have him as a partner, despite how foreign it seemed to be for her. Maal had never expected this when he first met her outside of Sickbay, thinking that he would have been chided for being late and moreover, having his opinions about the egg completely ignored.

Now, instead, he found that he was getting exactly what he wanted. So, perhaps, if he was ready for it, he would give her what she wanted later, when they travelled to the Ovri homeworld.

Eventually, he stopped, having done as best as he might to make her feel good, and with his arms around her to keep her steady, he helped her down so that she might regain her footing. Once they were face to face, his breathing shallow and the lust making his blood run hot, he spoke to her. "By then, I will likely give you anything you want," he rasped in his deep voice, and kissed her. And as he did, he ran his large hand over her forehead as well, stroking her mark while sharing in the moment with her.

Of course, he wished to continue. To claim her, but he would not ruin this affectionate gesture by proceeding too quickly. He was ready to take her right there, without delay, and he would push his uniform trousers down far enough to do so, in case his mate did not reclaim the initiative and wished to do ought else first. For her words, and her show of affection, had made him bold, and he'd seize the opportunity as soon as he might, lest she stopped him for sake of ideas of her own.

"I want you," he growled against her lips, feeling his Klingon passion undermining his Human-taught restraint.

As Maal pulled back and slowly helped Hylota back onto her own feet once more she wondered if they were going to be stopping or if they would be taking things further, but as Maal spoke of how he was likely going to do whatever she wanted, Hylota was taken aback for a moment when she realized that she was going to likely have Maal all to herself as she had hoped. Her delight put a smile on her face as Maal came in for a kiss, and Hylota obliged him. As they pressed together Hylota wrapped her arms around Maal in a loving embrace as they kissed and Hylota slipped her tongue into Maal's mouth once more. Hylota chirped happily as she felt Maal rubbing her forehead, she was glad he understood, it made her feel as though they were more than just lovers caught up in the throws of passion.

As Maal stripped himself down and exposed his cock Hylota noticed his movements and she allowed their kiss to be broken as Maal stated his desires, as to how he wanted her and to this Hylota could not help but smile as she licked her lips. It would have been very easy to simply state her intentions, to invite Maal to have his way with her and indulge in the pleasure, but she knew better, Maal was a pure blooded Klingon, he was part of a different culture, but it did not change his baser desires and she was certain he wanted to assert himself. Of course Hylota had looked into Klingon mating out of curiosity after she had first had sex with Maal. So Hylota could not help herself as she reached up and took Maal's right hand in her own and she sniffed it before she. "I want you as well Maal." With that last statement Hylota began to take a long deep breath that swelled her throat before she began to exhale, causing a rumbling croaking sound that was Hylota's best approximation of a growling as she tightened her hold on Maal's hands as she locked eyes with Maal, hoping all the while that she was doing this correctly in accordance with Klingon mating. It was not something that Klingon's did lightly, and considering how things were Hylota was committing to a lot, but if there were Ovri who had been able to commit to a single mate for life, then she could commit to a single mate as well. She just hoped that Maal would not be too rough with her.

[Show/Hide]Hearing Hylota's words and the growling sound she made, along with her sniffing his hand, oh, how it stirred Maal. More than she cared to admit, the base nature of his Klingon blood reminding itself keenly. He found himself animated by something more primal than his Human upbringing.

Forcefully, he growled back at her, seizing one of her legs with one arm, and pushed her up hard against the bulkhead. His teeth were at the skin of her beck, rasping at it, but he did not bit her enough to draw blood. Hard and throbbing, driven by a mad need to mate with the Ovri in his arms, he pushed into her - his Klingon girth squirming into her with little delay. His nails were cut, but his hard fingertips drew lines across her flesh, and he surged against her. Driven by his deep passion, he claimed her as his own, and bruised her in the process.

With little restraint, he forced his entire length into her, and he did not cease his heaving movements.

Their bond was sealed in that moment. The accord made. He'd grant her everything, for as long as they both lived.
