Hi I'm wondering if your requests are open but can I request a scenario with Ryusui who is constantly rejected by the reader ? & thank you ! XD
okay i absolutely adored this request and went in with the intention of trying to write comedy and accidentally make it slightly angsty??!!! (happy ending though i promise.) admittedly i found this surprisingly challenging to write- i've said before that i'm not very confident with my characterization of ryusui and that's probably pretty evident in this oneshot, but nevertheless i hope you still enjoy!
synopsis: he desires everything, including you--and it makes you nervous.
warnings: manga spoilers!! beware, as i said some angst but happy ending :)
word count: 2.2k
note: it's almost 2am and i reeeallly wanted to get this out so its poorly edited as always. might come back later with a fresh mind
You didn’t know what it would take to get Ryusui off your back.
Before the two of you became friends, you were certain that Ryusui Nanami was one of the most insufferable people you’ve ever met, always on about desire this and desire that. His arrogance infuriated you. ‘How is anyone supposed to work with this guy?’ you would think to yourself. Over time however, you realized that beneath his selfish and sometimes harsh exterior, Ryusui is a caring guy with a lot of ambition and determination who genuinely loves people and what the world has to offer. In some ways, you could relate to his way of thinking, but it didn’t make his overbearing desires and booming voice any less irritating.
The two of you eventually became decent friends through the work you put into building the Perseus, and even closer friends through your adventures together with the rest of the crew. But something you found strange about your relationship with Ryusui was that, even though you disliked him quite a bit when the two of you were mere strangers, he’s always liked you.
This shouldn’t be too weird; as said, Ryusui loves people. No matter who they are or how long he’s known them, Ryusui can always find something to like about someone, which you couldn’t help but respect about him from the beginning. But Ryusui always presented his desires for a person in a way that was seen as admiration and awe of them. While he presented his desire to want you in this way as well, he later also started presenting his desire for you in a romantic way you observed he didn’t desire anyone else.
At some point, Ryusui Nanami realized that he desired you as a romantic partner. What caught you off guard one day was the fact that he told you.
This weird proclamation came from him when you confronted his bold and “special” treatment toward you. He often offered you heaps of Drago for the most trivial things you did, claiming they were worthy of the money he bestowed upon you. He encouraged you to use the money to buy an outfit you had eyed from Senku’s department store or some cotton candy, occasionally even making purchases for you. He’d invite you to bask in his luxuries together, setting up a chair for you beside him with members of the Kingdom of Science feeding and cooling you down after a hard day's work. If there was something you had mentioned you wanted, or hell, even liked or loved, Ryusui would take a mental note of it and look for ways to obtain it. Flowers by a hillside you thought were pretty? A bouquet will show up by your tent. Mumbling out loud about how you could use some fresh tools? An assortment of polished ones will be gifted to you by Ryusui himself. You were confused and taken aback by the sudden affection, and blunt as ever, Ryusui responded “In truth, Y/N, I desire you as my partner, and I want you by my side!”
Ryusui desires the Earth, heavens and seas. He seemingly wants every conceivable item, skill and trait, and he isn’t shy about these bold desires; he never has been. So even though this proclamation was no different than the rest, it still surprised you just the same. He wanted you as a partner?
And so that’s what led to your current dilemma: you didn’t know what it would take to get Ryusui off your back.
You’ve heard from Minami about how Ryusui was rarely seen without the company of a beautiful girl. He was constantly around them and dubbed a playboy by the media before the petrification. No way he’s loyal.
“What can I tell you; I love everyone! But in this day and age, I love you, and only you--romantically.”
Sure, you two knew each other a fair amount, but you’ve still only just met. Plus, you have an important mission ahead of the two of you. Won’t a relationship interfere with that?
“Then let me get to know you more, Y/N. I want you to be mine. No journey or grueling mission will change that.”
And when Ryusui Nanami desires something, he’s determined to obtain it or make it come to fruition. But you were still reluctant, and so you turned him down.
Every attempt at flirting was shut down, every date offer was rejected, and gifts were either politely returned or hesitantly kept because of Ryusui's insistence. All these failures would surely have the average person give it up and get over the rejection. But this was Ryusui Nanami, and he was confident that you just needed time to come around.
With the help of Francois, Ryusui went full out trying to win you over. He asked Francois to make you your favorite foods, he complimented you frequently, whether it was your appearance, a thought you shared or something you did, and in small ways looked after you.
There were many times when you really were in awe of him. He always did his best to look out for you, in and out battle, sometimes even preventing you from sustaining major injuries or helping you recuperate after you take on too much work.
But then he’d open his mouth and say something like “after all this is done, we should wind down in my quarters” and you’d scoff and move away from him while he'd either laugh or stare at you with a small frown. When you’re struggling with something, he’s always quick to be the first one to come to your aid, and yeah, you notice how he takes every chance he gets to stand obnoxiously close to you.
However, Ryusui never takes his antics too far. As soon as you shoot him a dirty look, he's inches away from you and putting his hands up in mock surrender. He’s not focusing all his attention on trying to win you over; after all, you two are a part of the Perseus crew for good reason. But any chance Ryusui gets to charm you, he’ll take.
-
“I clean up nice, am I wrong, Y/N?”
When it came down to deciding what route to take to America, while you understood the realistic approach Ryusui wanted to take, you agreed with Senku’s more logical plan of action. What you didn’t expect was a game of poker to be initiated in order to decide who’s plan will be executed.
“I’m hurt you’re siding with Senku on this one, but you’ll thank me for saving you from the burden of Senku’s route once I win.” Ryusui seemed to have the utmost confidence that he’d reign victorious with Gen Asagiri, the master of trickery and deceit, on his side, but you had to suppress your smile when his jaw dropped as Kohaku seated herself beside Senku. With Kohaku’s sharp eyes, she’d be able to spot and put a stop to any dirty moves Gen tries to pull. A tense game ensued, and your gaze shifted between eyeing Ryusui and Gen’s wicked grins and Senku and Kohaku’s skeptical expressions. In the end, as you had predicted, Senku had won the game, which meant that his plan would be put to action. As cheers erupted from the crew watching and money was tossed around in the air from the bets made beforehand, Ryusui reluctantly turned his head toward you, and you had to muffle your laughter behind your hand upon seeing his dumbfounded expression as you rolled your eyes and left the riot.
You were surprised to hear that Ryusui’s shock and disappointment wore off quick after revealing that he and Francois had opened a casino for the entire crew to enjoy, which didn’t sound awful to you. The formal attire worn while playing poker inspired you to dress up a little for a fun night with your friends. How long had it been since you’ve had some modern fun?
You sat by Bar Francois in formal wear that you and a couple members of the crew had bought from Yuzuriha before you left for your trip, laughing at the retelling of fond memories from the pre-petrification world and sipping on your drink every once in a while. It was the most calm and at home you felt in a long while, and you were silently grateful to the eccentric captain for the work he put into making the casino. When the conversation died down a little, Nikki, who was one of the people you had talked to about your situation with the sailor, shifted her gaze toward someone in the middle of the room. “Uh oh. Lover boy looks like he wants to make a move.”
Your eyes followed Nikki’s gaze and you were suddenly met with Ryusui’s widened brown ones shining under the moonlight. For a moment, there was no movement from either one of you, but then Ryusui swallowed and made a slow beeline for you. Nikki quickly turned away when you nudged her for the inappropriate nickname. “Look, I completely understand why you keep turning him down but…who knows. Maybe a date won’t be so bad.”
And with that, she excused herself and walked off.
-
Ryusui had asked if the two of you could roam around the ship, away from everyone else, and you agreed, the exhaustion from the eventful night slowly catching up to you. Ryusui’s hands were clasped behind his back as he made conservation, taking into account your exhaustion and making sure you didn’t need to give him any lengthy responses to any of his comments or questions.
Throughout the slightly one-sided conversation, Ryusui teased and flirted, as he always managed to do with you, and as you picked up on each charm attempt, you thought back to what Nikki had told you earlier that evening. “Maybe a date wouldn’t be so bad…”
“I’m glad to see you enjoying yourself in the casino. You look beautiful, as you always do, but seeing you in formal attire was a pleasant surprise. Perhaps next time you dress up will be for a date in my quarters?”
You sighed deeply. This offer was unlike so many others Ryusui made. It wasn’t upfront and in your face, it wasn’t loud or grand. Hell, it almost seemed shy or- no- hopeful. You were staring down at Ryusui’s shoes, the confliction you felt evident on your face. Suddenly, you couldn’t hear the heels of Ryusui’s shoes clicking against the wooden floor as he walked alongside you. You stopped and turned around to see the captain with his head down.
“Ryusui, I…”
“I’m…sorry if I’ve forced you into a corner, Y/N. I never meant for my persistence to be overwhelming, I guess I didn’t expect to like you this much.” He laughed humourlessly staring at the ground, his hands still behind his back. You couldn’t find the words to consolidate him. You had never seen him so down.
But then he suddenly turned his head to look up at you and slowly started approaching you.
“Just one chance, Y/N,” one step. Two.
“I promise you,” another step.
“I won’t be wasting your time.”
He took one final step so he was standing directly in front of you. For a second, all the two of you did, could do, was stare at each other, your tired eyes examining Ryusui’s glimmering, hopeful ones. And then, without breaking eye contact, Ryusui pulls out a small bouquet of flowers. Ones you had seen on Treasure Island, which seemed to be preserved surprisingly well. You think you remember commenting on their beauty on one of your expeditions.
Up until tonight, Ryusui’s gestures have never been something you thought too deeply about; at least that’s what you tried to convince yourself. But now, Ryusui has confronted you with a billion percent seriousness. Maybe it was something about his flamboyant nature that made you uneasy and reluctant to even consider the possibility of being something more with him. Maybe it’s why you shoved down your thoughts and feelings, let your fears surface and become easy ways to excuse yourself. After all, you had plenty of those with the circumstances you two were in.
Was he getting discouraged? Would this be his final attempt at winning you over? Knowing Ryusui, probably not. He seemed determined, but looking closer you could see his shoulders sagging, the grip on the flowers loose, as if he was sad. His face didn’t carry his usual boyish grin or dazzling smile. Only furrowed brows and a small frown. Admittedly, all you could really think was ‘is he serious?’ and stare in confusion.
Ryusui’s eyes slowly trailed down to the flowers, and a dull ache spread over your heart started upon seeing his face slowly contort into one of disappointment. Maybe a date wouldn’t be so bad.
And so as Ryusui was about to tell you that he wouldn’t give up on you, he heard you sigh and felt your fingers brush over his, watching you take the bouquet from his hands. His head jutted forward, and his mouth morphed into an “o” as his eyes found yours again, widening when you gave him a small smile.
“Oh, what the hell. So, dinner in your quarters, huh?”
I just love how little Stanley is acting all cool with hi attitude and walk, only to have his pockets stuffed with candy!
They could have just given him only the lollipop in his mouth to mimic his cigarette as an adult, but they gave him several in sifferent colors and shapes!
I find it weirdly adorable how even while he and Xeno are obviously weird kids, having a bunch of candy on him shows he's still a kid after all with some regular childish behavior!
I've now also got a headcanon that even as an adult Stanley has a huge sweet-tooth and has next to no self-control near them!
Like, he and Xeno are visiting the Kingdom of Science and get offered some cotton candy and Xeno turns it down, talks some science and says they're already leaving, only to find Stanley happily biting in his third cotton candy
Hi! Since it's almost Christmas, could you write headcanons of how Ryusui, Senku, Stanley and Tsukasa would spend Christmas with their s/o (fem or gn reader) and their family (their children or the reader's family).
Bye and thank you for the 2 last requests !
This is so late I’m so sorry I’ve been very busy with finals! I tried to include reader’s family as best as I could do I hope you enjoy. If it’s not what you were looking for then you can always ask again. Thank you for your patience 💕💕
Ryusui, Senku, Stanley, and Tsukasa’s Christmas with their s/o🎄❤️
Ryusui:
he probably thinks Christmas is all about the presents
So on Christmas Day there will probably be trucks full of gifts, all for you! Please there’s no reason for him to have that much money
BUT-
You have to teach him that there are other things to enjoy other than just a pile of presents
The first time he watched a Christmas movie with you and your is DEFINITELY a core memory for him
Your matching pajamas, the way you snuggle into him and sharing the hot chocolate you prepared, the echo of your laugh filling his ears, and at the very end how you kiss him and thank him for spending Christmas with you
He completely melts
He’s so in love, he just wants moments with you like this all the time.
The only Christmases he remembers are just his dad and uncle basically throwing him into a room full of gifts and leaving for a Christmas vacation somewhere
So having genuine time with you and your family and sharing your love with each other makes him so happy he might even tear up a bit my poor baby😭
Now it’s tradition for the both of you to do something like that every year❤️
Senku:
He spends it in the lab 💀
You have to drag him out of there
You have to BEG him to back cookies with you
“Come on Senku! Please! It’s like chemistry, we have to mix a bunch of stuff together!”
After 30 minutes of begging he finally caved
Of course Senku knows all the perfect measurements to everything so the only thing you really had to do was mix the ingredients together
Your mom and dad did keep him busy with random conversations though
In the living room you can hear them whispering about something but you don’t know what
The cookies tasted great!
After you both said goodbye to your family and your mom hugged the crap outta him you both headed back home.
“You don’t have to stay, Senku. I’m ok with you going back to the lab. I just wanted to spend time with you…”
And with that he leaves-
You sit in the living room, bummed out that Senku left again
THEN
Senku comes back with a small box and a huge blush
“Here…”
You were super shocked when you opened it up
“Senku…this ring, it’s platinum right? You didn’t really…”
“It’s what the old man would’ve wanted. And…it’s what I want too…”
Was he really..?
You started to cry
Senku didn’t know what to do
You just held each other and told each other how much you loved one another, excited about the future with each other
Stanley:
Stanley was on a mission during Christmas
So, Xeno invited you and your family to a Christmas party he and his colleagues were hosting
You really didn’t want to go, especially since you wouldn’t know anyone and Stanley wasn’t with you
But Xeno was still your friend so you decided to show up for him
You and your relatives stand there awkwardly in one of the door frames as Xeno and his colleagues talk about whatever project they were working on
You dad and mom go find some of the snacks and your siblings (if you have any) go causing trouble somewhere
There you were by yourself in the corner
“You look lonely over here under the mistletoe Miss. May i accompany you?”
You knew that voice
You look up to see your boyfriend
“Stanley!”
You practically jump on him, wrapping your small arms around his much bigger body
He pets your hair, then lifts your chin
“We’re still under the mistletoe.”
You smile at his cheesy gesture something he doesn’t normally do
You both lean closer together and kiss, desperately clinging to each other like you’re both afraid to let go
“Oh! Is this your boyfriend (y/n)?”
Your lips immediately leave Stanley’s as you see your whole family just staring at you and Stanley under the mistletoe
You face turns red instantly causing Stanley to laugh
He sticks his hand out for your family
“My name is Stanley Snyder. It’s an honor to finally meet you all.”
Tsukasa
You had a gingerbread house competition
Your mother was the judge
You and Mirai were a team
Tsukasa and your dad were the other
Tsukasa was struggling making the designs in the roof
Your dad couldn’t get the gum drops to stick
But you and Mirai had a great time with the gumdrops and candy canes, sprinkling them everywhere!
After your major victory Mirai wanted to play with her dolls
So you and Tsukasa sat on the couch, snuggling up next to each other while your mom kept Mirai entertained
“Do you want kids?”
Your head pops up with the sudden question
He locks his eyes with yours, patiently waiting for your response
A soft smile grows on your face
“Of course I do!”
This leaves Tsukasa heart-struck
He kisses your forehead, his favorite way of showing his love for you
You can hear Mirai’s ewws, making both of you laugh
“No sex before marriage!” Your dad yells from the kitchen

꒰꒰・┄┄┄┄・♡・┄┄┄┄・꒱꒱
The living room was unusually quiet for a Thursday afternoon, sun slanting through the curtains in soft golden beams that painted the hardwood floors. A half empty mug of coffee steamed beside a laptop displaying a paused slideshow on Mycoses Case Studies on the living room's center table.
Sai was already seated on the couch, legs crossed, coding notebook on his thigh as he reviewed some notes. He didn't bother looking up yet. Not with the weight he heard coming. He can hear a quiet sigh with the pitter patter of soft slipper steps getting louder.
Plop.
Hua threw herself into his lap with the grace of a starfish being thrown back into the sea, burying her face into the crook of his neck with an exaggerated groan. Her body curled against him with practiced ease, long sleeves dangling as her hoodie swallowed her frame. She even had the nerve to let out a dramatic breathy whine.
"I can't do this. Sai.. I'm dying. Kill me."
Sai snorted softly at this dramatic display. He didn't even flinch when she suddenly raised her arms in an exaggerated manner. He adjusted his balance so she wouldn't fall off and he calmly marked his place in the notebook before he closed it.
"You're not dying. You just don't want to think."
"Exactly. Can't you just inject the knowledge into me?"
"Tempting. If only you had a USB port on your neck."
He said flatly, poking the spot under her jaw. Hua snickered into her hoodie sleeve.
He looked down at her, seeing how her hair was slightly messy from tugging at it. Her glasses were askew. She looked about five minutes from tossing her notes across the room and taking a nap in protest.
"I don't think I'm ready. I'm not even sure I have everything memorized..."
"Hmm.. maybe I should bring back the reward system."
Her eyes popped open. Hua lifted her head slightly, looking up at her boyfriend to see if he was serious. He smiled at her with just the faintest curve on his lips. It was the kind of smile that made her stomach flip.
"Same rules. Every correct answer, you get a reward. Kisses. Whatever you want, really.."
"And if I get it wrong?"
"Then I get to decide what happens. Could be a penalty. Could be... a learning opportunity."
Hua's breath hitched slightly at the implications. Sai took off her glasses from her face and reached over to close the nearby laptop. He opened up his phone, checking for the reviewer that Hua sent to him for whenever she wanted to be quizzed. This type of quizzing wasn't the usual though.
"You ready, Hua?"
She adjusted herself in his lap, her back now against his chest. Her grin was wicked, trying to hide that she was a little nervous.
"Hit me, professor~"
"What's the difference between superficial and systemic mycoses?"
Hua yawned, stretching her arms lazily overhead.
"Superficial mycoses affect skin, nails, and hair. Think dermatophytes like Trichophyton and Microsporum. Systemic mycoses..? Histoplasma, Blastomyces, Coccidioides- they affect deep organs. Often start in the lungs."
"Pff. Cocc-"
"Sai."
Sai softly laughed; then ran a hand over the curve of her thigh and kissed the side of her cheek.
"Correct... What are the thermal dimorphic fungi?"
"They exist as molds in the cold, yeasts in the heat... That includes Histoplasma, Blastomyces, Coccidioides, Paracoccidioides, and Sporothrix schenckii..."
Sai's hand grazed her inner thigh. His lips met her neck. Hua inhaled sharply but didn't falter. Her eyes narrowed at him.
"Your kisses are getting warmer already-"
"So is your skin... You sound like you don't need to review, Hua. Didn't you get top scores on your last assessment?"
"Because you threatened to edge me through the whole chapter if I didn't answer every question you gave right-"
"And it worked. Let's continue. I wanna be there when you get your third PhD."
He looked at a flashcard from her reviewer set, flicked it open with one finger, and looked her right in the eyes.
"Alright. Name three genera associated with tinea infections. I want both genus and common names."
"Easy. Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, and Microsporum. All are dermatophytes. Ringworm, athlete's foot, and jock itch can happen depending on the location."
She looked so smug, but the expression was thrown off her face when Sai kissed her. It was soft, slow, and drawn out until her breath hitched against his mouth. When he pulled back, her eyes were hazy.
"Next?"
"Absolutely..."
Hua's breath became a little heavier now. The first kiss had been simple. It was playful, just to get her started.
And now with the nth question, every time Sai kissed her, it felt like a new kind of fire was building up. The intensity wasn't even in the questions or the answers; it was how each touch of his lips against her skin made her forget everything except him.
He adjusted her in his lap, his free hand resting on her waist as he went to the next flashcard. He could feel her shiver slightly as he pressed it.
"Next question. Sporothrix schenckii is a primary pathogen in subcutaneous mycosis. What'a the main method of transmission, and what's the typical site of infection?"
She was already thinking, her eyes narrowing in concentration while her fingers gently played with his hoodie string. She paused, biting her lip. She knew this!
"Sporothrix schenckii is typically contracted through traumatic inoculation- like from plant material, especially roses and thorns."
He leaned in, just close enough to feel his warmth against her neck and enough to make her heart race even more.
"Good. Very good."
He murmured before placing a kiss beneath her ear.
"The typical site of infection would be...?"
Her eyes fluttered shut as the warmth of his breath on her skin sent a ripple of pleasure through her. She steadied herself, trying to remember more details.
"The hands or forearms. Usually where thorns pierce the skin."
Another kiss. This time, a lingering press of his lips right on the pulse point of her neck, making her shiver.
Sai wasn't just teasing her anymore. He knew she was smart -- way smarter than most people he ever met -- but it was more fun when she got a little flustered. A little off balance, like a boss AI that he's dissected and could mess up for fun.
"What's the first step in the management of Sporothrix schenckii infection? And it better not be the obvious answer."
She froze. The obvious answer..?! What other answer could there be? She could feel his hands moving to her thighs, just enough to make her thoughts scatter.
"The treatment is antifungal therapy.. usually itraconazole-"
Sai checked her notes. He shook his head, just the slightest bit disappointed at the way she jumped to that answer. Then, without warning, his hand moved lower, his fingers lightly trailing over her inner thighs just enough to make her shiver.
"Hmm.. you wrote here that the first step in management is actually confirmation of the diagnosis, because if you misdiagnose it, you're going to miss the infection, and the patient could end up with a nasty case of disseminated disease. Treatment comes later. But I'm sure you knew that, right?"
Her cheeks were flushed and her heart was pounding. All she could think about right now was how his hand was on her, sending shivers through her every time he touched her. His hand was so damn close to her crotch. Clothed, yes, but what the hell will loose cotton shorts and comfy panties do against him?
"Alright, Hua.."
Sai hummed absentmindedly, his fingers slipping under the waistline of her shorts, brushing her skin on her abdomen lightly.
"What's the difference between primary and secondary cutaneous lesions in Sporothrix schenckii infections?"
She gasped lightly as his fingers traced her tummy pudge, teasing the edge of it ever so lightly. He was so distracting, but somehow she pulled herself together enough to answer. She could barely focus on the words coming out of his mouth anymore, each answer feeling like a countdown to another touch.. or another kiss.
"Primary lesions are typically papules or nodules at the site of inoculation, while secondary lesions spread along the lymphatic chain.. looking like… um- track marks..."
Hua explained, eyes slightly glazed over as her brain struggled to keep up with his touches. Sai checked the reviewer then nodded, lips curving up in a satisfied smile. He gave her temple a soft kiss.
"Perfect. Next question. Tell me, why does Sporothrix schenckii tend to form more nodular lesions on immunocompromised patients?"
By now, her breathing was shallow, and each question seemed to make the room spin a little faster. She wasn't sure if she was more focused on the content of the questions or the effect Sai had on her.
She could feel the warmth building in her chest, her body pressing flush against his as he slowly pulled her closer. She swallowed hard, trying to focus.. but Sai made it so difficult.
"It's due to a delayed immune response. Without an adequate cell mediated immune response, the Sporothrix can't be contained, and the body forms the nodules as a response to the inflammation…"
Her legs trembled as he slid his hand under her panties and started to slide the middle finger along the slit. She was lightly squirming in his lap, her unzipped hoodie falling down her shoulder; the poor lady now flushed and panting softly from this review session. Her hair stuck to her temple due to the sweat, and her eyes were glassy from a mixture of focused effort, arousal, and pure academic rage.
"Explain the mechanism on how the capsule of Cryptococcus neoformans evades the immune system."
She let out a whimper after he asked that, feeling Sai's middle finger prod at her opening. He was riling her up further, making sure she was soaked enough before he put it in. She grit her teeth, searching the back of her mind.
"The capsule.. fuck- polysaccharide... It's mostly composed of glucuronoxylomannan. It inhibits phagocytosis, downregulates the inflammatory response.. and interferes with antigen presentation…"
Sai looked down at her expectantly. He's not putting his finger in yet. From the looks of it, there's something more in her notes.
"And… and it can even interfere with leukocyte migration. But the real kicker is that it masks its PAMPs, making it hard for innate immunity to even see the pathogen at first.."
"Good girl."
Hua squeaked when he leaned down and kissed her throat, pairing it with his middle finger inserting itself into her cunt. His pace was agonizing and slow, but she knew if he went too fast she wouldn't be able to answer the questions. He checked his phone again.
"Uhh- What's the difference in appearance between Histoplasma capsulatum and Blastomyces dermatitidis on a GMS stain?"
"You're kidding."
"Look, I'm just reading off your reviewer here-"
"I hate you... Histoplasma has narrow based budding, small yeast, and is usually seen inside macrophages."
"....go on."
"Blastomyces has broad based budding, larger yeast and is often found extracellularly.."
He slid his finger out of her cunt and rubbed a gentle circle on her clit as a reward. She nearly folded into him with a sigh. Gods, curse his magic hands.
"Tell me what makes Paracoccidioides unique morphologically. Says here in your flashcards you gotta include the temperature dependent dimorphism."
"Oh come on-!"
Sai just shrugged, acting as if his finger wasn't rolling her goddamn clit right now. She groaned in annoyance. Her thighs were shaking slightly from sitting in his lap so long while being constantly stimulated.
"Fine. Paracoccidioides.. has thermal dimorphism. Yeast form in tissue. Has a pilot wheel or Mickey Mouse ears arrangement of buds. Mold form at 25 degrees celsius with septate hyphae."
"Ding, ding, ding.."
He whispered; rewarding her with a kiss to her neck again. His fingers continued to roll her clit.
"Want a rapid fire round? Answer all five questions right and I'll make you cum."
".....fine."
"Which layer of the skin do superficial mycoses infect?" "Stratum corneum."
"Name four genera that cause superficial mycoses." "Malassezia, Piedraia, Trichosporon, and Hortaea."
"What causes black piedra?" "Piedraia hortae."
"White piedra?" "Trichosporon. Soft white nodules. On facial, axillary, or pubic hair-"
"Malassezia furfur causes what condition?" "Tinea versicolor. Hypo or hyperpigmented patches on the back and trunk.. Spaghetti and meatballs appearance on KOH prep…"
Sai gave a light kiss to her shoulder. He put his phone down.
"Good... I'll keep my promise, don't worry."
Hua's heart raced, her chest heaving against the confines of her hoodie as she stared at Sai with wide wonder-filled eyes. Sai's other hand was now splayed on her stomach, pressing her flush against him as he captured her lips in a searing kiss.
Her breath hitched as Sai's hands began to roam over her curves, his touch igniting sparks of pleasure that raced across her nerve endings. She gasped softly as he cupped the breast, his index finger brushing over and rolling the sensitive peak of her nipple through the fabric of her hoodie.
She arched into him with a soft moan, her hips rolling instinctively against the growing hardness she could feel pressing against her bottom.
Sai paused in his ministrations, his fingers stilling on the sensitive bundle of nerves that he's been teasing since earlier. Without a word, he hooked his fingers into the waistband of her shorts and panties, his calloused fingertips brushing against the soft skin of her lower belly as he did so.
Hua lifted her hips instinctively, allowing Sai to peel the fabric down her legs and off her feet. She shivered as cool air hit her bare skin, her thighs falling open slightly in invitation for Sai to warm her up. Sai tossed the clothing aside, his gaze raking over her naked lower half with undisguised appreciation.
He brought his slick coated middle finger to his mouth, his tongue darting out to taste her essence. He let out a low approving murmur as he savoured her taste.
Hua blushed at the sight of him enjoying himself with her taste. However, before she could voice out any embarrassment, Sai's fingers were back on her again, sliding through her soaked folds teasingly. He circled her clit with maddeningly light touches, not quite giving her the pressure she craved.
Sai's other hand unzipped her hoodie, pushing the fabric aside to reveal her breasts. He cupped her left breast, his thumb brushing over her hardening nipple as he rolled and pinched them between his fingers. The dual stimulation of his hands on her most sensitive areas had Hua's back arching and her voice letting out mewls, her body writhing against his.
Hua whimpered, her hips bucking up against Sai's hand as she chased the pleasure that hovered just out of reach. Sai's other hand continued its relentless teasing on her breasts, rolling and plucking at her nipples in a pattern that made sure both got stiff, until her nipples were stiff peaks aching for more.
"Please, Sai..."
Hua begged, her voice breathy and laced with need.
"You promised..."
"Okay okay- You did win the rapid fire round. I'd be a shitty game dev if I didn't roll out reward-"
"Sai-!"
Sai let out a laugh before his fingers finally pressed down on her clit, rubbing tight circles over the sensitive nub as his other hand slid down her belly.
He brought his other hand to her dripping entrance. He slowly and teasingly slid hid middle finger inside her cunt, feeling her walls clench and flutter around the intrusion. He pumped his finger in and out at a torturously slow pace, curling it just slightly to brush against that spongy spot deep inside her with each thrust of his finger.
Hua let out a strangled moan, her head falling back against Sai's shoulder as she rocked her hips down to take his finger deeper. Sai's thumb continued its relentless circling on her clit, the slick sounds of her arousal filling the room as he fingered her with a deliberate slowness. He enjoyed watching the build-up. It felt like a progress bar was filling up in his head as she got closer to unraveling.
Sai leaned down to press open-mouthed kisses along the column of her throat, his tongue darting out to prod at her racing pulse.
Hua could only whimper in response, lost in the haze of sensation and the deep pulsing ache building in her core. Sai's finger pumped steadily inside her, curling and stroking her walls as his thumb rubbed maddeningly slow circles around the sensitive bundle of nerves at the apex of her thighs. She could feel the pleasure coiling tighter and tighter in her belly, her body tensing as she teetered on the edge of climax.
"There- ahn.. fuck-"
Hua gasped out, her hips bucking frantically against Sai's hand as she chased her impending release. A grin spread across her lover's face as he heard the desperation in her voice. He leaned in close, his breath hot against her ear.
"That's it. Get your reward..."
He focused his attention on her clit, rubbing the sensitive nub with quick and firm circles. At the same time, he curled his finger deep inside of her, stroking that spot that drove her crazy with a purposeful pressure.
Sai felt the change in Hua's breathing. He could feel each desperate hitch and stutter of her inhales as her body tensed and slowly began to tip over in pleasure. Her walls clenched rhythmically around his finger pumping in and out of her, the velvety heat fluttering and grasping his digit with no sign of letting go.
Hua cried out when she came, her cunt convulsing around Sai's finger as her climax crashed over her. Her inner muscles clenched rhythmically around the digit buried inside her as she gushed her release. Sai groaned, feeling the wet heat of her arousal flooding his hand as he worked her through her orgasm, drawing out her pleasure until she collapsed back against his chest, boneless and spent.
"That's it, you did great.."
Sai slowly slid his finger out of Hua's quivering heat, bringing it up to his mouth. He made a show of sucking her essence from his digit, his tongue swirling around the tip to catch every bit of her slick clinging to it.
Hua watched him through hooded eyes, her chest heaving as she struggled to catch her breath. Sai's praise made her cheeks flush with pleasure and a hint of embarrassment. This was supposed to be a study session; but here they are, completely derailed from her original goal of reviewing for her assessment.
He brushed a sweat - dampened strand of hair from her forehead, his fingertips trailing softly over the flushed skin on her face. He leaned down and pressed a tender kiss to the top of Hua's head, his lips lingering on her soft hair for a moment. He wrapped his arms around her, holding her close against his chest.
"I'm sure you'll ace your assessment. You're more than ready, babe."
