[January 20] [Final Fantasy X] The Advantages of Skin
Title: The Advantages of Skin
Day/Theme: January 20/bejeweled with diamond droplets
Series: Final Fantasy X

Rating: PG
A.N.: Furry stuff.
Word Count: 486
The Calm Lands seemed to go on forever, and so did the sun. Kimahri was tired, though he never admitted such things. He sat against a rock, alert for danger and enemies though there had been no sign of them. When Rikku sat down next to him, he looked at her out of the corner of his eye and said nothing.
“You must be hot, with all that fur,” she said.
“Kimahri like fur. Fur protect Ronso better than skin,” he replied in a mild tone.
“Well, it must be a disadvantage right now; that’s all I’m saying.”
“Kimahri hot,” he admitted grudgingly. “Ronso meant for Mt. Gagazet. And Ronso meant for fur.”
Rikku help her hands up. “I’m sorry; I didn’t mean to offend you. And I suppose it is… pretty.” She blushed a little as she said it.
The Ronso looked down at himself. “Pretty? Yes. Fur more pretty than skin.” he said.
“Oh, well, fine then,” said Rikku in a tone that sounded almost offended.
“Skin hold Spiran and Al Bhed together well enough,” Kimahri said. Rikku laughed.
“I already said I didn’t mean to offend you. And I suppose it feels nice too. To touch, I mean.”
“Rikku never touch fur?” asked Kimahri.
“Well, on a cat, or something, but not on a Ronso. I mean, you’re a person, I can’t just run around touching you to see what it feels like.” Rikku was blushing quite a bit now, and biting her lip.
Kimahri picked up Rikku’s hand and placed it on his upper arm. Hesitantly she began to stroke his fur, as he closed his eyes. “It is nice,” she murmured.
Her hand felt very pleasant moving over him like that, running through the hair and the sensitive places underneath, and he almost wished he could take off a few ornaments to make this easier for her. The thought made him just a little uncomfortable, and he opened his eyes.
Rikku was smiling, and placed his large hand on her arm next. “Skin isn’t so bad either, you know.”
There were tiny beads of sweat on Rikku’s skin right now, and that was something that did seem like an advantage over wet fur. It was actually nice to look at, that water shining on her, and when he stroked her arm she made a little purring sound and closed her own eyes. Skin didn’t feel anything like fur, but it was smooth and soft and had its own advantages. Just as Kimahri was wondering where exactly he was permitted to touch her, as she had quite a bit of skin showing, he heard Tidus’s voice.
“All right, we’re all moving along now. Everybody here? Lulu, Rikku, Kimahri, where are you?”
“Every now and then I wish he’d calm down, don’t you?” said Rikku as she got to her feet.
“Never,” replied Kimahri. But for once he was lying, just a little.
