Touching? “I—, uhm—”
“Oh!” Flora said, turning towards Carline. “If that’s okay with you, Carly?”
“Wha— why me? You should be asking her!”
Flora rolled her eyes, innocent smile returning to her face. “Dense as she is, she has a point. You can touch me, but only if you want!”
“Is this really necessary?” Tira asked.
“Oh?” Flora walked over to the other second-year, leaning in over her. “Maybe I should be asking your permission?”
Tira blushed, leaning back and turning away. “N— no, that’s not what I mean. Elaina can touch whoever she wants, I just meant—.”
“Then it’s settled, Elaina gets to touch me to figure out what my aspect is.” She turned back towards Elaina, large eyes making her look like a puppy begging for attention. “If you want, of course.”
All eyes were on Elaina now, and she could feel her face beginning to burn. “Uhm, sure, sounds fun?”
“Great!” Flora said, clapping as she skipped over. She closed her eyes and the spread her arms and legs out, like she was presenting herself for some kind of inspection. It also gave Elaina the most unobstructed view of the girl’s crotch so far, drawing her eyes in towards the pink lips between those long legs. “Go ahead, whenever you’re ready.”
Elaina took in a deep breath, extending her hand straight out. This was it, the first time she was actually going to touch a naked girl. It wasn’t sex or anything, nothing like what she and Carline had done just an hour ago, but it was still a big deal. For that matter, it was her first time even seeing a naked girl other than quick glances while changing together or bathing, the first time a nude woman was just naked in front of her for no reason other than being naked.
Her hand landed on Flora’s stomach, surprisingly firm to the touch. The woman was thin, but didn’t seem look as toned as she felt. “Uhm, I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be looking for, feeling for.”
Flora smiled, one eye peeking open. “Just feel around, try and figure out what I might be changing with my aspect.”
“Okay...” Elaina pressed her hand onto Flora’s stomach, rubbing the palm of her hand over her skin. She was soft, still slightly wet from the pond she’d been in. Elaina’s eyes glanced below, towards the place just below Flora’s waist.
No, that’s not why we’re here! Not right now, at least, but Elaina had a feeling that Flora wouldn’t mind too much. Still, she lifted her hand up, wrapping around Flora’s side, running her fingertips over the silky smooth skin of her back. Flora’s actual body was more firm than what Elaina had felt from either Carline or Tira, but the skin itself was still just as soft, just as captivating to the touch.
Elaina almost forgot what she was doing as she cupped Flora’s ass, squeezing a dense, nearly solid cheek, way firmer than Elaina’s own. She brought her other hand up too, placing it directly on Flora’s breast. That was firm too, way more than Elaina’s own, with smaller, harder nipples pressing into the palm of Elaina’s hand as well.
Elaina could feel herself getting distracted down below, almost forgetting the reason she was actually feeling Flora up. Gotta stay focused. The thought seemed to escape her head the second she stopped focusing on it though, being replaced with the feelings of Flora’s skin, her muscles, Elaina’s own burning arousal, growing and growing between her own legs.
“Well, any guesses?”
“Uhm...” Elaina placed her hand under her chin, staring at the spot she had just touched. She could see it, the roughness she felt, and she could see it fade away back to normal skin as well.
“Skin?” Carline stifled another laugh, and Elaina looked over, frowning. “I don’t see you making any guesses!”
“She actually was able to guess correctly when I played the game with her,” Flora said.
Elaina’s eyes grew wide with realization as she turned back to see Carline blushing and looking to the ground. “Well, I’m lost anyway. What is it?”
“Nature!” Flora said, jumping up a little in excitement.
Elaina looked at the flowers on the ground. “You mean, like?”
“Nope! But that’s what I thought too when I first had my Awakening. Would’ve been fitting, right? Mine’s an internal type aspect though, so I don’t affect the nature around me, but my nature, my physical characteristics.”
“Oh.” That explained the changes all across her body. “So you change your skin and stuff?”
“Not only that, but just about anything about my body. I can make myself harder, wetter, faster, stronger.”
“W— wetter?”
“Anyway,” Flora said as she turned, impish grin taking over her smile again, “that’s my aspect. If you all think I’ll fit in to your team, I’d love to join! My current group’s pretty boring to be honest, and I think I’d have a lot more fun with you three.”
“Fun...” Elaina muttered, looking over at Tira. The woman had a defeated look on her face.
“I hate to say this, but... I don’t know how many other choices we’ll have, realistically.”
Flora cocked her head, looking puzzled. “Are you three that unpopular? I know Elaina had that spat with those other first-years, but I thought that was mostly over.”
“It’s not that,” Carline said. “We just...” Carline looked over to Elaina biting her lip.
Elaina nodded, understanding the call for help. “We need to double check everything before we say anything else.”
Flora squinted her eyes, looking even more confused. “Check what?”
