350 – Flail Forward ❤️
Lilith's boots clicked against the cafe floor like Bullet Seeds as she slowly sauntered over. The gradual approach gave time for the tension to build, and Dani held her breath in horror. Frozen still in Brandy's lap, her tail slowly slid off the table and into Calcine's lap, who stroked the thick thing like it was a sleepy cat. Morgan had swiftly got out of the way of the incoming disaster and was lurking behind the sofa they were all sitting on, her feathers soft on the back of Brandy's neck.
Brandy felt comfy and loved, and now she was ready for Sparky to reap the rewards of her mischief.
"I heard you have a problem?" Lilith said every word a whetstone ran down a blade. She wasn't a tall woman, but with Sparky sat down, she got to loom over the Galvantula. Sparky was grinning wide, her eyes gleaming. Brandy was a little impressed at how unaffected she was, Lilith had a scarily intense stare.
"Your cheesecake is cold."
Brandy didn't think she'd ever seen someone's jaw literally drop.
"I can't stand cold cheesecake." Sparky continued as if her complaint wasn't absolutely ridiculous. "Do you have a microwave I can warm it up in?"
Even Brandy felt a pain in her heart at that, and she knew Sparky was doing it on purpose.
"It's meant to be cold, and we don't 'microwave' anything here," Lilith replied, spitting out the word microwave like it had a foul taste.
"You think cheesecake is meant to be cold?" Sparky asked.
"It is."
"Then I'm not paying for a bad meal." Sparky declared, crossing all four of her arms.
Dani finally took a breath and stirred in Brandy's lap. She was going to try to save Sparky, bless her pure heart. Brandy gently pressed a hand over her mouth and leaned into Dani's ear.
"Let it happen, just watch with us," Brandy whispered. She picked up Dani's hand and put it down on her tail. Calcine wrapped it up right away, linking their fingers to give Dani's hand a supportive squeeze. The fuse had been lit, they were all just waiting for the explosion.
"Did you cut this cake into squares?" Lilith said, scooping up Sparky's plate off the table. "Why?"
"Makes it easier to scrape the cold topping off. The biscuits on the bottom are still good."
Lilith flashed Brandy a look, and there wasn't a blazing fury behind her eyes. With a flick of her eyes to Sparky, she effortlessly communicated that she was asking for permission to push this further. Making sure she understood everything going on and wasn't about to push it too far. As much as the show was fun, that little gesture to work out the boundaries let Brandy know Lilith was a damn good Trainer herself.
Brandy gave Lilith the nod, freeing her to do what everyone wanted.
She came down on Sparky like an avalanche, throwing a leg over her and sitting down in her lap, her breasts stuffed into Sparky's face. The bug flashed her fangs and tried to bite, but Lilith grabbed her lower jaw and held Sparky's mouth open as she used her body's weight to crush her back into the sofa.
"This is what's going to happen," Lilith said with such deadly calm that the entire cafe was silent so they could listen in. "You're going to eat every bite of this cheesecake. You're not going to complain about it's temperature. You're going to enjoy what my wife made for you. Then you're going to ask politely for the bill and give me such a large tip you'll make a Wailord feel inadequate."
"Can't make me," Sparky slurred, her jaw still pinned open. Brandy was very familiar with the bratty little slits her blue eyes were in, getting her to do anything when she was in this mood was impossible.
Lilith was not deterred. She took the fork out of Sparky's hands and scooped up a square of cheesecake, holding the loaded fork up and giving it a good twirl.
"Open wide," Lilith commanded.
Sparky snapped her mouth stubbornly shut, her fangs gleaming over her lips, giving her a horribly smug grin. Lilith wasn't going to get that mouth open without a crowbar, but that didn't stop her. Instead, the fork went not into Sparky's mouth but into her own. She rolled the cheesecake around in her mouth and then slowly licked at the fork with the tip of her tongue until all the tines were scraped spotlessly clean.
"She smiled," Dani gasped in Brandy's lap, and the Magikarp was right. It was a brief flash over Lilith's face, but she glowed with contentment for just a moment. It made sense that she married the chef because cheesecake was the way to this goth's heart. It was hard to say if Sparky had even noticed her blissed-out look; her eyes had almost crossed watching Lilith's tongue, and there was a flush on the bug's cheeks.
"She hasn't swallowed." Morgan said behind them, "It's melting on her tongue, dripping down her throat."
Dani made a garbled choke at the mental image, squirming her butt in Brandy's lap.
"You like that idea," Brandy whispered to Dani. The Magikarp had gone wet in her lap again, her skin glistening. "It's turning you on."
Sparky was enraptured by the goth waitress on top of her as Lilith stirred the fork in the pitcher of table water, the ice floating in it clinking off the fork. She seemed so calm as she savored the cheesecake in her mouth, flicking off the water from the fork, some of the ice-cold water splashing on Brandy's skin and making her spine tingle.
Then Lilith dropped the ice fork down Sparky's cleavage.
Sparky's mouth flew open as she gasped from the cold, and Lilith went in for a kiss before she could make a sound. Her hand grabbed the back of the bug's head, pressing her neck to pop open her mouth. Sparky's fingers dug into the goth's tulle skirt, the fabric ripping as Lilith pushed the melted cheesecake into Sparky's mouth with a kiss that had electricity snapping all over Sparky's fur. When Lilith finally pulled away for a breath of air, crumbs and spit splattered down onto her cleavage, and she had a look of utter triumph on her face.
"There," Lilith sighed happily. "Doesn't that taste good?"
Sparky couldn't answer, Lilith had just reset her brain and it was still rebooting. Her fingers were flexing through the torn dress to squish Lilith's thighs, pressing in firmly as if they needed confirmation of something real, and thick goth thigh was the only thing to hand.
"I've made her give me that look," Calcine said proudly. "Would you want to be in her place, Dani? Could make it happen."
Dani wasn't in any better state to reply than Sparky was. They'd put on this show to try to clear out Dani's thoughts and done too good a job of it. Brandy could feel Dani's pulse hammering away under her skin, and her breaths were coming so fast she was at risk of passing out.
"Calcine," Brandy said, "Going to try out Flail. Stop Dani from doing too much damage."
Calcine shifted her body, ready to jump on Dani, as the Magikarp watched Lilith run a thumb around Sparky's lips and look down to her chest. "I said you'd eat all of it, lick up those crumbs."
The bratty defiance was gone; Sparky just faceplanted into that cleavage and busily got to work. Brandy really had to try being more assertive with Sparky tonight. Maybe Lilith could give her a few pointers afterward. For now, if they waited any longer, Dani would pass out.
"Dani," Brandy said, drawing on their freshly formed bond. "Flail."
Dani's body went rigid, the command echoing in her mind. Then she flicked her tail up, slapped the underside of the table, and launched the whole thing right up into the air. It hung there for a second, plates and pitchers of water balanced on top of each other as they all stared up at the miracle of physics. Then gravity reasserted itself, and the whole table collapsed down on them with a bang.
Calcine was there to cover them, and Morgan flicked out a sharp gust of wind to protect Lilith and Sparky, but that didn't stop cheesecake going absolutely everywhere. The rich dessert splattered all of them as Dani kept on Flailing, anchoring herself on Calcine and tipping their sofa. The ceiling flew past as they all tumbled backward into a heap. Calcine used the opportunity to pin Dani's limbs down, steam curling out of her mouth as she looked down at the Magikarp with a panting hunger.
There was a long, awkward silence, and then Sparky started giggling.
"What's funny?" Lilith said, sitting up and brushing a lump of cheesecake out of her hair.
"Not going to make me eat it all now, are you?" Sparky snorted.
Lilith looked around at everyone, covered in splatters of cheesecake, and then to Sparky. She leaned her head to one side, dangling a messy lump of hair down to Sparky's mouth. "Best start licking bug. You got a lot to get through."
"I'll go find a dustpan or something," Brandy said guiltily. "Calcine, make sure Dani knows this isn't her fault."
"I don't think either of them are thinking about the damage right now," Morgan smirked. "Calcine, use Tongue!"
To Dani's shocked delight, Calcine actually did.
