Studying a gag gift you never threw out helps you both reach new spiritual heights
Tysm! 🥹 you’re too kind. I shall spend it all on hypothetical goodies I don’t need.
Definitely don’t know what happened to this one. The voices guided me and they’re never right. Hope you like it anyway. If not I’ll give you a hypothetical refund xD
“A religious text? A spiritual guide?” He’s brushing a servo over the cover of the book plucked from your shelf.
You know you should be an adult. Tell him to put it down. He’s good.
“Oh, that? Yeah. Really sacred.” It wasn’t. It was a gag gift from old friends. You smiled remembering the way they cackled when you’d opened it at the Christmas party. You’d asked for a self help book and apparently after complaining enough about your boring sex life with your ex, they’d decided this was all the help you needed.
He hums, clutching it like something precious. “Ah. I did not know you were interested seeking personal enlightenment.”
You fight a snort, pretending to clear your throat. “Yup. That’s me. There’s a real ecstasy in reaching new spiritual heights.”
Drift gives you a surprised look, nodding in complete agreement, as if finding a new respect for you. You are a terrible person.
“Wow I am very impressed. And this has helped you?” Nope. It had become a coaster for all the wine you sobbed into after the inevitable breakup, then had gathered dust on the back of a shelf. Why did you even still have it?
You laugh, rubbing the back of your neck. “Oh. No. I’ve never actually read it. It’s a partner based discipline. You can’t practice it alone”
His plates bristle, door wings flaring. “And you’ve never had anyone to follow it with you?”
When you shake your head he is full of pity. “Well may I read it? I could study up on it and we could practice it together?”
Say no. You should say no. You’re the worst person in the universe. “Sure, Drift. Study up. I’m sure you’ll feel very enlightened.”
It’s 3 days later that you find yourself in Swerves. The alcohol he’s managed to procure was close enough in colour and taste to a Merlot to drink but with an acidic enough aftertaste to remind you a Merlot it was definitely not. You sat it at a corner table, small to accommodate your size, scrolling on your datapad, definitely not reading heinous smut in public spaces.
you had almost forgotten about your encounter with drift entirely. It was hard to make friends on an alien vessel, and it didn’t help that you are who you are as a person. Didn’t mean to be this way but you can’t help it. You just don’t know how to be vulnerable or embarrassed and so you cope with bad jokes and deflection and let it haunt you while you cringe in bed at night.
Drift was a good person. The best. He always tried to be kind to you and make you feel involved from the first day you came on the ship. Invited you to mediate every day. You’d gone once and couldn’t cope with the awkward silence. Had to break it every few minutes. He wasn’t even annoyed, just smiled and humoured you. Tagged you in the crew chat with things you thought would be interesting. You never remembered to reply. Gave you a heads up when an activity was being organised. You often bedrotted instead and apologised the next day. You didn’t deserve his patience.
You blink out your wallowing as someone eases themselves to sit across from you. You almost throw yourself onto the table to close the screen.
“I read your guide.” He’s got that gentle, easy smile he always does.
“Oh.” You can’t help yourself. You should die in a fire. “Do you feel enlightened?”
The mech hums, as if searching for words. “Indeed. I have never studied a spiritual text like that before. It contained quite inventive philosophies and flexible practices.”
“Huh.” You don’t know what to say. Drift is too principled, too virtuous to be entertaining your awful attempt at goading. He’s still got that attentive easy smile, you’re sure a complete parallel to your confused gaping.
He’s waiting for you to say something more. “Did you…read all of it?”
“Of course. It was a recommendation from a trusted friend.” You want to crawl under the table until serve sweeps you out with the broom.
“That’s…I. I mean.” He gives you a concerned look.
“Are you alright?” You shake your head then nod.
“So we could start tomorrow? It would be an honour to guide you to the ecstasy of new spiritual heights. That’s how you put it, yes?”
That’s what does it. This will be read out to you when you go to hell. Bad bad bad.
“Drift that was the Kama Sutra. It is and I’m so sorry I made you read it. I thought it would be funny but you believed me and I’m a terrible person and I’ll burn in hell for lying to you. I’m really sorry.” It comes out like one long word and a mech at the bar coughs and you glance over to see Swerve has stopped mid polish of the cup in his hands.
Drifts face doesn’t change. He doesn’t look horrified or angry. He isn’t throwing you out the airlock.
You shouldn’t be angry. You’re the bad guy in this situation, but what the hell does that even mean. You’re scanning for the best way to slide past him without making a scene and crawl back into your bed and never come out.
You stand, clutching your datapad to your chest and commit to the plan. You hear Drift calling your name and think he’s going to let you get to the crawling like a sad bug part, hoping maybe a stray ped will happen to find you under it. There’s a pair clanking towards you from behind and you pray to something that it’s your lucky day.
It’s not. It’s drift. He’s crouching in front of you to block the way. You glare up at him.
“No. Let me wallow. Stop it. Oppression.” You wail as he lifts you up and carries you. He’s entering his suite and dropping you softly onto the floor, dropping to sit across from you.
You cross your arms, pouting and refusing to look at him. You can’t.
“You’ve really never read it have you? It’s very obvious.” You bristle. What the hell is that supposed to mean?
“You know you’d really benefit from reading it. You should give it a chance. I think you need the wisdom inside. It would loosen you up. help you enjoy yourself more.”
“Excuse me.” Ok. You deserve this. It doesn’t mean it’s not rude. “Are you calling me stale and inflexible?”
He blinks, searching for his words again.
“Hey. I’ll have you know I’m plenty flexible. I can do fun sex stuff with people. I just choose not to. It’s a choice. I happen to like missionary and doggy. They’re fun. I’m fun.”
He frowns. “That’s not where I saw this going.”
You interrupt him. “And you know what Drift, I’m a horrible horrible stink person but you aren’t. Don’t tell me how to have sex. You’re supposed to be the good one here. You should be ashamed, stooping to my level. What are you thinking?”
You’re in the right here. Know it. You’ve accepted you’re just a degenerate asshole but Drift isn’t and it doesn’t suit him.
“Love is necessary to satisfy the mind, ethics to satisfy the conscience, and spiritual seeking for peace of soul.“
You shut up and frown at him. “Huh?”
“You have misunderstood me. I did not intend to cause any offence. I was simply attempting to convey that I can tell you have not read the text as you referred to it as…” you feel yourself die inside as his optics light. “Ah yes. ‘A book for horny degenerates just about sex positions’. I believe that’s how you phrased it, yes?”
He laughs, the sound uncomfortably fond and kind. “How can you say that when you’ve never read it?”
“You understand it was written by a Hindu, that’s one of your Earth religions, philosopher. It is a holistic and spiritual guide to love, affection, and sexuality. A lot of the text teaches about living with and honouring one’s desires and seductive drive. It emphasises the need practice them in a way that reduces harm to themselves and others and promotes a moral and spiritual existence while doing so. It has some beautiful words on the importance of not suppressing your sexual needs or feeling shame around them. Around the harm of forcing abstinence and in turn denying pleasure. Denying yourself.”
The fire is ebbing and you raise an eyebrow. Oh. “To be for real with you, I thought it was just wacko positions to fuck in.”
Drift’s smile is a little strained but nonetheless genuine. “You mean positions that target and stimulate erogenous zones that amplify gratification? Yes it has those too.”
You snort, trying not to blush. Definitely not a conversation you foresaw having with Drift out of your gooning fantasies.
“Wow Drift, you dirty talker. Don’t you know you’re not meant to discuss gratification amplifying erogenous zones until the 3rd date?” He chuckles, shaking his helm.
“Well, how are we to practice it together if I can’t discuss it?” It’s posed casually, like it’s a normal thing to say.
You balk, mouth opening and shutting.
He’s smiling. He knows exactly what he’s doing. Who is this guy and what did he do with drift? Or maybe you just never had as good of a read on his as you thought you did. You like this drift though. This drift is really hot. Well, hotter than normal. Didn’t know that was possible.
“Is that not what we had agreed? You can back out if you’ve changed your mind.
Your smile is manic and unhinged. You shake your head.
He continues. “Of course some of it is outdated, old script usually is. That doesn’t mean there wasn’t a lot of content I found deeply interesting. A lot to find great wisdom in it I’m eager to trial.” He’s hitting the panel on his arm, plates hissing as he mass shifts.
You can’t remember actually seeing him use it before. Can think of a few times seeing other mechs doing so but never for you. Never like this. He’s smaller, sure, but still so much bigger than you in a way that has your neck tingling with pinkness you’re sure is spreading to your face.
He’s sitting back on his knees, looking at you like waiting for permission.
You lean forward towards him, mustering a grin. “Oh yeah? Like what? I shall be your humble student.”
Thats all the permission he needs and he’s crawling forward, gently pushing you down and you let him, back meeting the floor. You stare up at him, breathing hard and mind racing. God this has to be a dream. You’ve wanted him for so long. Imagined everything late at night with just your hand as a substitute but here he was staring back at you from above.
“a man never succeeds in winning a girl without a great deal of talking.” He looks up, humming. “I feel we speak a lot. I always enjoy our conversations. Do you?”
You just nod, eyes flicking, unable to meet his but unable to look away. “Yeah. I like talking to you.”
He beams, dipping his helm down to meet your head and all you can see are his eyes. Blue blue blue. He shifts, nuzzling at your nape.
“Prohibition arouses desire and suggests stratagems for satisfying it. Could it be that this was your stratagem all along. That you’ve longed for this too? Hoped it would lead to this.” The embarrassment doesn’t rear at his words, drowning in the heat pulsing in your core. You nod again and he rewards your honesty with a nip at your pulse, pulling a whimper as your thighs shift against each other.
His little love bites travel down the centre of your chest, then stomach, and he nuzzles again into the soft flesh between your hips, tilting so his chin rests on it to look at you. You can’t look away from his heated stare, his digits hooked into the band of your pants and underwear.
“Without eroticism, the mind becomes restless and unsatisfied. Do you think we can satisfy each other and find peace together?” The “yes” that leaves you is too breathy and too desperate. Fuck you need this so bad. He nods in agreement, glossa sliding from one hip to the other as he slides down your bottoms and you frantically toe off your shoes and socks to help.
Now bare below the waist, you feel suddenly shy, legs held to hide your drooling core. He notices, servos wrapping gently around your ankles without prying. Just holding you. Letting your hammering heart find its rhythm again.
“You know what my favourite wisdom was? One I think is all too accurate to you?” Nodding again. Please.
“However bashful or angry a woman may be she never disregards a man's kneeling at her feet.” He purrs, gently pulling a leg up to him and you don’t resist. He licks a stripe up your sole. From any normal guy you’d be logging that as ammo later, but you remind yourself they don’t have feet like yours. This is an exploration for him.
Thoughts cut short as he begins to leave wet kisses up your ankle, your thigh, and your panting, whining like a dog when he nips the apex, pulling your other knee to the side. It flops eagerly before you can overthink it and you see his optics flare, glued to the now leaking slit of soft flesh. His thumbs are tugging you apart and the intensity with which he’s studying you has you almost crawling out your skin. He leans close, face almost pressed into you, and vents hard, a groan escaping him and you feel too exposed, too vulnerable as your legs try to shut. He lets them, tilting his helm and moving his optics to your flushed face.
“Kama is the enjoyment of seeing, tasting and smelling, assisted by the mind together with the soul. Please. Can I taste you?”
You fold your arms, head turning to the side. Don’t know how to deal with the genuine softness in his eyes. You nod anyway.
He nuzzles into your thigh again, coaxing you to relax before his nose nudges against your clit, glossa flicking along the side of a sloppy lip, and your head thumps against the floor, thrown back and eyes screwed shut. He uses his thumbs to part you again and you feel him lapping a stripe from ass to clit, swirling it over the sensitive nub that has your legs jerking.
his entire intake is around you, glossa burying deep, devouring you and an animalistic keen is filling the air as your legs clamp hard around his helm, torn between pulling him closer and pushing him away.
He groans against you, the scent and taste of your sex filling every sense. He could drown in you if you let him.
Your first orgasm hits you like a freight train and your legs tense, digging into the finials adorning his head hard enough that you know it’ll bruise. Whole body shuddering with a pathetic chorus of whines, you ride out the last of the peak against his smiling mouth, glossa pulling from your entrance to lap at the juices drooling from you.
you push up to your elbows, panting and shaking. He’s smiling up at you, smug but not cruel. You stare back like a rabbit in headlights.
Hadn’t expected it to feel that good. Didn’t know it could. He’s crawling over you and your mouth falls open without input as he leans his helm back against your own head. He’s also venting fast, mouth still sheen and slick with you. When he leans in, your breath catches as his lips find yours and your tongue seeks his own. You can taste yourself on him, the kiss awkward and clumsy. Feels weird to kiss a mouth so much bigger than your own. With the size of his glossa, it’s filling you and almost brushing your throat. Holy shit.
He pulls away, face finding your neck to vent there, breathing you into him.
“Drift.” You hate the way it falls out of you. He just wants to hear you say his name like that all the time. “Fuck. That was…drift.”
“I’ve envisioned this so many times. I thought I was going mad, losing myself.” His plates hiss and he’s grinding his now exposed spike into the floor right between your legs.
“I needed to know. Thought even just a taste of you would scratch the itch. That you would stop haunting me. Now I know what is true.” You would snort and tell him to shut up if you had a brain but right now, you just try to hook your legs over his frame and pull him closer. He vents hard, face strained and you whimper as his spike nudges against your heat.
“That I think I will finally know what peace feels like melding with you. Two sparks, souls, entwined. One.”
You’re trying to babble a response, little more than “yes” and “please” like a mantra as he sinks forward and his spike meets resistance against your fluttering walls. You’re trying so hard to accommodate him. Accept him in as his tapered head begs for entry.
He grunts, feeling your heat sink around him like a vice and swears his spark is floating somewhere out of him. Your mewls fill his processor and he can’t seem to cool his frame, plating opened wide and vents whirring.
He’s only half way into you when tip meets flesh and he realises even as small as he feels, he’s filling all of you. You’re doing so well, eyes rolled back and back arched to open yourself and he swears he has seen nothing as holy before.
Knows he can’t last lost. Can feel your pulse beating around him. Can feel the flesh of you milking against him. Is too scared to move, a forlorn fear he will be rejected if he dares give up what he’s taken. Can’t stop himself and does it anyway. Pulls out, eyes watching the stretch of you around him and the dew on his now exposed shaft. Sinks in again and lets his helm fall, redirecting it to the space near your shoulder to not crush you under it.
Feels your hands pawing and scrabbling on his nape and back. Lets his hips continue to rise, again and again and bask in the beauty of your body pulling him back in.
He hears you cumming again, trying to announce it to him and unable to string the words together. The way your body bows and tenses, cunt clenching so hard around him he sees stars has him following you to that high place. Let’s himself rest against your womb and give himself to you completely.
You doubt you’re ever going to catch your breath again. You can feel him finally easing out and it leaves an empty void inside of you. Both between your legs and somewhere deeper you don’t want to think about. He’s stroking your face, wiping the tears, and speaking something to you so softly you can’t register over the buzzing in your ears. Feels like you’re floating.
When you eventually try to stand to pull on your pants, you come back to the ground. Your legs, everything, is shaking too much. You refuse to look at him when he immediately comes to your aid, helping you dress.
“I don’t know what to do now.” He hums, giving you a curious look.
“Perhaps I could carry you back to recharge. Resting would be sensible.”
You sigh, playing with a loose seam near your ankle.
“But what about tomorrow? And the next day?” He doesn’t understand what to say to that.
“Now it’s done, you’ve had your ‘taste’, I don’t want things to be weird.” You don’t want to lose him. Don’t want this to have messed up the one connection you have.
“I’m scared when I wake up tomorrow and see you again it’ll all be different.”
He nods, considering your words.
“Everything is in flux. Nothing stays the same forever. I think this could be a nice change.”
You want to cry. Vulnerable and exhausted.
“And you could always sleep here. Then when you wake up it’ll be as it was.” You look at him with too much hope.
He nods, pulling you up to carry you over to his berth. You let your head fall onto his shoulder. When was the last time you’d been carried like this? As a child? It’s nice.
“I really liked that. I really like you.” Hadn’t meant to say the last part out loud. He’s placing you down, crawling up beside you. Curling round you, calm and warm. You let your eyes close.
His digits run through your hair, vents blowing against you and internals humming like the purr of a cat.
“I really like you too. I’d give myself to you. Mind, body, soul. You need only ever ask it of me.” You smile, heart heavy.
“So does that mean you’ll teach me all those kinky positions too?” He laughs.
“Well I am curious to test this flexibility you take such apparent pride in. I’d love nothing more.”
He waits for a response, but when none comes, he realises you’re already gone. He spends a while playing with your hair and watching the rise and fall of your chest before following. Will always follow. His spark wouldn’t allow anything else.
