“Ah, well, it wasn’t much…” A small amount of red colour in the cheeks of Miss Tachibana as she found her roomie propped up alongside her, still not quite comfortable with these casual displays of intimacy that the girl seemed to lapse into. Not even remembering much in the way of physical intimacy with her mother once she had moved from her youngest years, the sensation of having someone so close was almost alien to Saya, and one she was very aware of at the moment.
“I’m sure if we had a fuller range of ingredients, we could cook up some special stuff…” Shaking her head lightly as she tried to toss off her self-consciousness, the dark haired girl wrinkled her nose a little as she tried to focus on whatever would take her mind off the situation. Focusing on the small scraps of leftovers that were left in front of her, with some veg and maybe a wider selection of meats Saya reckoned she could easily knock together things with more variety and balance. Chicken and rice or noodles wouldn’t do for every day, after all.
“I could even try my hand at making things like Pizza and other ‘take out’ that you enjoy? It’s probably better quality when cooked at home?” Having sampled a few of the more ‘Verian’ forms of cuisine as well, or at least what she supposed was that, Miss Tachibana felt a little keen on expanding her own horizons. The flavours and appearance of the food having given her a good idea of what to put into them, she reckoned with a bit of practice and experimentation she could certainly try to get Yumi to kick her take out habit…

"A fuller range huh?~ Well I'll be sure to go shopping for more if you're dedicated to cooking me more tasty treats like that." She let out a light giggle, stretching her arms over her head, feeling a little worn out and wound up from the long day, but generally cozy now that she had a worm meal in her, a soft breath flowing out of her nose and sliding herself casually back into the couch, eyes glazing over a little till she eventually just closed them, giggling after a brief and careful burp. "Excuse me.~"
At the talk of take out food she shook her head without opening her eyes. "Nah...kinda enjoy it as it is. Everyone SAYS something tastes better homemade, but thats like, only true of cookies or maybe a sandwhich. And even then I say stores make way tastier chicken and mayonaise than I ever could." She let off a light shrug and fell slowly into Saya's side, just gently cozying up to her without thinking as she pulls her legs up under her and onto the couch, brushing her cheek against Saya's shoulder. "You're pretty warm..."

“Yes, it might be a good idea to pick up a range of things next time we’re at the market, maybe some seeds and things as well for our vegetable patch?” Nodding gently at the suggestion of the woman by her side, Saya remembered the odd times she’d picked up a few supplies to cook up something from her home while she was staying at the boarding house. The cafeteria of the place growing tired after a while, it had been nice now and then to knock together some noodles or prepare a few rice balls to take somewhere as a picnic.
“Oh!” Finding herself blushing a little and covering her mouth at the belch that Yumi let free, Miss Tachibana herself would never have considered passing gas in such an undignified way. Not exactly upset with the redhead for what she had done but rather some aspects of her culture so deeply ingrained that she couldn’t shake them off, in a way Saya envied this forthright act, even if it was a little ill mannered.
“I’m new to this ‘take out’ notion but I do find the flavours a little heavy for my liking, and some of the things can be rather fatty… I find I’m likely used to more subtle and delicate flavours?” Finding that she might be being a little bit on the ungrateful side for speaking out against the prepared food that her roommate seemed to almost live on, despite her discomfort the dark haired girl decided to try and curb the fast food habit as best that she could. “Besides, often times the quality of the meal is dependent on the cook! My Mother told me that, at least?” Feeling a little bit like she was blowing her own horn a bit, it strange as it was, Saya felt an urge deep down to ‘provide’ for the pair of them? Encouraged by how much Yumi had seemed to enjoy her cooking and sensing that this might be a way she could start to pay back the ‘debt’ she had to the redhead, Miss Tachibana did not have much time to delve into matters too deeply before once again she was distracted by an unexpected sense of intimacy from her friend.
“A-Ah, yes… My muscles may still be warm from the exercise earlier? When… How to describe it…” Flushing even more and likely making her body feel even hotter as her Yumi’s cheek brushed against her arm, Saya braced a little and found herself reminded of certain special parts of her education and wondered best how to convey her recollection to the girl next to her.
“When the girls in my village did their bride training, we were told that our husbands might feel hot and need a helpful massage or some such after a long day?” Now bright red as she remembered one of the rare times she had been physically intimate, so to speak, with one of her fellow girls, Miss Tachibana recalled how the young ladies of the village would take turns giving one another soothing rubs so they learned best how to do it. “N-Not that I’m um, suggesting you need to rub me down, or anything!” Nothing lewd in the act and more a learning process, Saya had always found she was more uncomfortable with what she was doing than some of the other girls, as if what they were doing was breaking some taboo? This actually being the case in some ways, feelings of affection between fellow women tended to be considered somewhat distasteful, and should not linger beyond casual companionship after a girl had reached marrying age.

"Bride training? They really had that where you lived...?" She heard about small cultures within cities in Kanto that still upholded such traditions but even to her who'd lived in those areas for a long time, it always felt somewhat backwards and out dated. If the culture of people was okay with it, fine? But at the same time from the outside it made her almost wince to think about. On some level though she did smirk and let out a light chuckle, just shaking her head as she shifted a little to get comfortable, pitting her back to Saya's side a little without laying too much of her weight on her. "I mean, hey if you're offering I won't refuse a little shoulder rub, just er..."
She blushed a little, biting her lip as she let out a more nervous chuckle. "Well I dunno if it was part of your training, but if it was, I'm not exactly in need of a...'happy ending' so to speak." She was still blushing, but comfortable enough to make such a joke, closing her eyes as she relaxed again. "Still though, I'll make sure I buy some more stuff in my next trip. It'd be nice to enjoy something different, even if I do love my greasy takeouts.~"

“Oh yes, all women would become homemakers while the men became warriors, hunters, craftsmen… That’s how things were supposed to be.” Nodding an affirming the notion she had just mentioned, the words of Miss Tachibana had a hint of venom toward the end. Disliking the fact that her ‘destiny’ had been laid out for her right from the moment she had been born a girl, despite having escaped that life and having been away from it long enough to miss some aspects, she still felt a little bitter about that factor. having tasted a life where things were done differently, if ever she did make it back to her home Saya certainly wouldn’t stand for such backward thinking any longer, that was for certain.
“Happy ending…?” Blushing initially as Yumi teased her about the topic of getting a massage, the dark haired girl lifted her hands up once her friend had turned her back to her, the joke that the other girl made left her hands lingering an inch or two from the shoulders she might have kneaded dutifully if not for the confusing distraction. “What sort of thing is that?” The brow of the beauty with blue eyes tightening a little as she leaned forward and blinked at the redhead curiously, Saya expected that a thorough massage might have made the recipient rather joyful, and yet was not sure from the way Yumi spoke of it whether this ‘Happy Ending’ referred to something specific to do after the massage?

"...errrr....."
Caught a little off guard by the question, her own shoulders tensed right back up as she shifted away from Saya to look her in the eye, ruffling her own hair as she tried to focus on how to answer this properly, scratching her cheek and letting out a nervous chuckle as she tried to navigate the exact words to use here.
"Well er...that's our word if someone ends a massage by erm...'pleasing' the recipient..." She shrugged a little, trying to make it a bit clearer without being too explicit, the word alone making her cringe. "...Sexually..."

“Pleasing…? O-Oh!” Still a little unclear on what exactly Yumi had meant until she spelled out things explicitly, as soon as she did, Miss Tachibana pulled her hand to her mouth and practically radiated redness in her environment. Blushing as much as she could at the notion, she braced up in shock and was left in stunned silence for a few seconds as she processed the information, but when she had done didn’t fare much better.
“T-That is uh…” The mind of Saya boggling as she imagined doing that sort of thing for a man for a moment, her imagination quickly shifted to the picture of said male being replaced by the redhead nearby, given how she had prompted the notion and the naïve young woman pulled her hands up even further to hide how embarrassed she had become.
“One supposes everyone h-has urges and things that need…” The only part of Miss Tachibana’s face that was visible now the blue eyes of the girl that peeked out between her fingers, as her face felt hot enough to cook them supper, she tried her best to seem polite in circumstances that were making her feel more and more awkward and self-aware with the moment.
“If you are struggling, I suppose I could try…” Sitting stiffly now as every inch of her not inconsiderable muscles felt tense, despite the obvious discomfort the notion had suddenly brought her, Saya’s confusion as the sincerity of her friends comment still made her feel like she should entertain it. The barriers of language and culture really blinded her sense of humour, sometimes…

"A-ah! No! Don't try don't try!" Yumi was practically flailing her arms infront of her as she shook her head over and over, she was literally joking about NOT doing this, so she was more than a little on edge now as Saya seemed to be going for it, swallowing back hard as she tried to focus her head, and just trying to make it clear. "I-I was just making a joke! I Mean I'd have loved a massage-" Before things got awkward. "But I'm just saying you SHOULDN'T give me a happy ending...I mean we've only known eachother a little under a month or so right...?"

Blinking through her parted fingers as the redhead began to flail and refuse her hesitant offer, though her face continued to shine with beet red colour Saya did feel at least a little relieved that her roomie didn’t seem to be interested in the notion. Proposing the notion more out of politeness and a sense of obligation, though she could recall a vague sense that she had proven herself somewhat capable when massaging her ‘classmates’, Miss Tachibana would have felt rather uncomfortable engaging in such unabashed intimacy even with Yumi. Having warmed up to her host considerably but still feeling very much a beginner in these kinds of things, this was one area that the usually bold girl did not feel quite so assured.
“Heh, I am relieved to here that it was a joke, honestly…” Slowly dropping her hands down and letting them fall by her sides, while Saya’s face still carried plenty of colour, in her relief she offered a soft but sincere smile to her roomie. The situation they had found themselves in rather a messy one admittedly, but now that they were in it the dark haired girl felt herself a little less awkward and that bit more assured. So she decided to say something that had weighed upon her heavily in gentle moments like this.
“I must confess that I have struggled to deal with the levels of intimacy you have shown me already, it isn’t as common where I’m from?” The colour of Miss Tachibana’s cheeks intensifying a little more as she laid out a confession about feelings that she had largely tried to hide, though her admission made it a little difficult to look Yumi in the eye, she found it necessary all the same. “It is… Not bad being close to you… At all, but… My inexperience means I am not sure where the line between friend and more than that sits?” Spurred on by the misunderstanding and feeling there was no better time than this to get into the more physical aspect of their relationship, while Saya didn’t feel like she particularly wanted the redhead to back off, she hoped this might explain why she tended to become awkward in the face of affection…

"...Oh..." Her expression draining as she heard the woman's words, she lowered her eyes and tried to think of what she could have been doing...well she had hugged her and...leaned into her...honestly she'd more snuggled than cuddled her, and that was bad enough as is. Faintly biting her lip as the embaressment settled in, she rubbed her arms softly as she tried to steel her nerves to talk again.
"I see...well erm..." She let out a nervous chuckle, brushing her hair behind her ear as she managed to come up with why this might have been the case. "Well I guess it must just be because I'm used to living with my Pokemon so much you know? I can just lean into them and hug them whenever the urge occurs but..." She shifted a little closer, taking one of Saya's hands in both of hers and trying to focus on a smile for her. "I'll pull it back a little consciously, if it helps you feel more comfortable?"

“It is… Not unpleasant to f-feel you against me by any degree?” Watching the redhead in front of her wilt away a little at what she had confessed, Saya couldn’t help but feel a little bit guilty for sharing her feelings. Perhaps guilt the wrong word and the fact of the matter being more that she didn’t want to make Yumi feel bad for what she had done, with a hand that was a little hesitant Miss Tachibana lightly touched the shoulder of her roomie in order to try and reassure her a little as she tried to explain herself more fully.
“I have felt part of my discomfort is because I am a little reluctant, and did not wish to reflect that in our embraces and the like, because I worried it might make you feel like I was recoiling from you?” Finding herself now the one who was looking down as she tried to tell the girl how she felt and also not knock the confidence that Miss Tasukai had seemed to begin to show, Saya continued to blush as she looked at her knees.
“It felt good, in many ways, and I’d like to learn to offer you the same level of physical reassurance you show me?” Looking back up toward the face of her fellow femme hopefully, Miss Tachibana hoped that what she was saying made sense to the golden eyed girl next to her and moreover made her feel a little bit better.
“But I worry sometimes I might take things too far? That I might breach a boundary I wasn’t aware of?” The sense of nervousness that she felt always one that seemed like she had this compulsion to hold herself back, whether it was the habit and politeness with which she was raised or some other urge that she felt she needed to restrain was unknown to Saya, and often was the biggest part of her confusion in this regard…

"Not unpleasant huh? That's some...mild reassurance..." Smiling weakly as she toyed the hair on the back of her head, she let out a soft little sigh as she tried to calm down her nerves a little more, resting her head back against the couch and wondering where this might all be going. She was fine holding back on the cuddles, but hearing that Saya was happy to keep doing it was a little nice too...she did like having another human about to be friendly with rather than just her Pokemon, as nice as they were.
As she went on Yumi blushed a little at the thought of Saya breaching some boundaries but...it did make her curious. Shifting a leg up onto the couch, she leaned in a little,words hushed like it was a big secret. "Hun when you say you might breach some boundaries...I mean it's fine if we hug and stuff and...heck after a long day I'd genuinely take a massage if you offered but...you havn't wanted to...k-kiss me or something have you?"

“K-Kissing?” Shining with red colour as Yumi brought up the notion of an intimate lip lock, Miss Tachibana looked down shyly as she questioned whether there was any truth in the wondering of her fellow woman. “I-I’m not sure, honestly… I have never kissed anyone aside from practicing with f-fellow girls from the village, the urge to kiss isn’t something I have learned to r-recognise or indulge?” Summoning up very little evidence to suggest she wished to launch into a passionate smooch with the redhead that she could recall, the tenseness that Saya had felt when getting friendly with her host usually tended to overwhelm any other urges she might have had anyway.
“I sense that should I find I do have the urge to kiss you that it would not be something to pursue?” Pausing for a moment before recognising that the quietness and urgency with which the redhead had spoken about the matter might indicate that she too was starting to feel uncomfortable about the prospect, with a little sheepishness Saya decided to address the issue a little more definitively. Shy in this situation certainly but wanting to establish the boundaries of their relationship now that the situation had been laid bare somewhat, while she didn’t know if she might ever feel the impulse to indulge that particular want for intimacy but hoped that by knowing the “Do’s and Don’ts” a little more readily she might make things a little more comfortable for both of them?
