"Uu..."
Even with her low sense of shame, Rana's cheeks were flushed in this 'OR2' (on hands and knees, ass raised) pose. In this position, not only her delicate entrance but even the hidden depths between her butt cheeks were left with absolutely no secrets.
Posing like this would be embarrassing even in front of other girls, let alone a man. And that wasn't even factoring in wearing a cat tail plug.
It's going to hurt, right? It'll definitely hurt a lot, won't it?
But...
Just like they did on Ryo's stage back then.
For the sake of a three-lifetime band, and for the place her grandmother said she belonged, even if it was shameful, it wasn't unacceptable.
Placing a pillow against her chest and resting her forehead on the mattress, Rana arched her back and raised her petite, pert rear high into the air, assuming the pose of a stretching cat.
Pale, firm, perky, and soft. The delicate lips hidden between her butt cheeks parted and closed rhythmically with her breathing, looking incredibly adorable.
However, unlike a stretching cat, Rana's paws... well, her hands weren't stretched forward but were instead tightly gripping the sides of the pillow. Her heterochromatic eyes were brimming with tears of embarrassment.
When she decided to join in, she had mentally prepared herself to be "eaten" like Soyo. But having a cat tail inserted from behind... she'd never even heard of such a thing!
That's an exit, how did it suddenly become an entrance!?
Taki didn't care about Rana's exploding sense of shame. She very thoughtfully handed the lubricant to Tomori.
Tomori applied the lube to the tail plug as if she were coating a dagger in poison.
"I-I'm starting."
"Uu..."
Tomori took a deep breath and pressed the slick, lubricated tail against Rana's entrance. Rana tightly curled into a ball, but under the slippery aid of the lube, she couldn't resist at all.
Starting from the smallest bead, as Rana's entrance expanded and contracted, she swallowed them one by one. Faint tear stains began to mark the bedsheets.
But Tomori didn't stop. Moving the hand holding the tail downward, she used the residual lube and her fingertips to gently rub and explore Rana's body for her, venturing into places Rana had never touched herself.
"Meow!!!"
Rana jolted as if her fur were standing on end, but Tomori didn't pull her fingers away. Instead, she pressed harder, rubbing everywhere while offering encouragement.
"O-Only by doing this... c-can we deepen our bond and become a band for three lifetimes."
Whether it was Ryo's 'little stories' or the 'practical application' that followed, they both told Tomori the same thing: if you want to form a band for three lifetimes, you have to do things that break through your sense of shame!
Like pissing yourselves together on stage at the very beginning, and later, throwing a party with Taki.
Before that party, Tomori felt that while she and Taki were good friends, there was always a barrier between them. They were just good friends.
But after that, that barrier... after Rin Ito pierced through that barrier, Tomori felt she and Taki had become closer than friends; they had become family.
Therefore... now she had to make Rana family too!
Thinking this, Tomori let go and glanced sideways at Rin Ito. Just as Rana was breathing a sigh of relief, she suddenly felt something wet, slippery, and soft replace the fingers. A shudder ran through Rana's entire body as she instinctively muffled her mouth with the pillow. It took her a moment to realize what was happening.
Tomori... is licking me with her tongue!?
Rana had seen similar behavior in cats, but that was a mother cat licking her kittens to help them excrete.
The swollen feeling in her rear brought a thought to Rana's mind:
I feel like I've become a kitten.
And Tomori... she's a woman who could be my mother!
Tomori, however, had no intention of becoming Rana's mother. With her eyes closed, she earnestly licked and moistened every nook and cranny with the tip of her tongue.
Simultaneously, Rin Ito, still on top of Soyo, began to accelerate... It was just a look, but Tomori's intention was crystal clear.
And Anon... Although no one in the room was paying attention to Anon sitting on the sofa, she was so nervous she didn't even know how to sit properly. Her gaze, however, was fixed tightly on Tomori, whose head was buried in Rana's crotch.
At this moment, her mind wasn't focused on the fact that Tomori was actually licking Rana's private parts, but rather on what Tomori had just said to Rana.
['Only by doing this can we deepen our bond and become a band for three lifetimes.']
What about me, then?
What about me, who hasn't done this?
Tomori was indeed just comforting Rana earlier and didn't mean to single out Anon, but the speaker has no intent while the listener reads too much into it.
In Anon's view, this was the prelude to her being isolated.
Even though she had stayed to participate in the party, if she just stood by and watched without saying or doing anything, she would never be able to truly integrate into the group.
Just like when they first formed the band, she could clearly feel that she was an outsider and they were the actual band.
No... I have to do something.
I can't just watch. I have to do something so I won't be treated as an outsider.
I don't have to be fucked until my eyes roll back like Soyo. If I just do something simple, like poking and pinching with my hands like Tomori did earlier... doing anything at all counts as participating, right?
Yeah, j-just like that...
Holding her breath, Anon was so nervous her mind went completely blank. She felt even more terrified and lost than she did during their first live performance.
Rin Ito quietly shifted his gaze to the fidgeting Anon... If this were a manga, Anon's eyes would definitely be spinning in spirals right now.
Rin Ito was very curious to see what she would do next.
Would she run away? Or just sit there until it was over?
However, Rin Ito was only watching out of the corner of his eye; his main focus was still on Soyo.
If Anon had spiral eyes in a manga, then Soyo currently had heart eyes.
"Nnnngh... I'm g-going to break... EEEK!!!!"
Rin Ito had lost count of how many times Soyo had cried out wantonly and tightened her body. This time, Rin Ito didn't tense his own body. Instead, with a loud smack, he left a handprint on Soyo's pale, tender buttocks, causing her to relax, and then filled her to the brim amidst her pleas for mercy.
As Soyo went completely limp, Rin Ito let out a long breath and pulled out of her body. The moment he left, Mortis, who had been waiting nearby, gave Soyo the cucumber she had grown herself.
By this time, Rana had also been licked to the point of turning into a puddle of mush by Tomori's tongue.
Seeing Rin Ito and Soyo finish their round, Tomori immediately lifted her head and lunged at Rin Ito. Without a hint of disgust, she stuck her tongue out to clean the area that had just left Soyo's body, which was still frothy from friction, successfully arousing Rin Ito once more.
Although Tomori lacked technique, her earnest and adorable effort quickly got Rin Ito excited again.
Tomori winked at Rin Ito and then shifted her gaze to the limp Rana.
Rana, who had no prior experience with 'self-maintenance,' was experiencing this kind of pleasure for the first time. Her entire body felt weak as she basked in the afterglow. Rin Ito wasn't in a hurry; he walked over to Sakiko, picked her up, and adjusted her position.
Rana and Anon weren't the main characters of this party; Hatsune and Sakiko were.
Earlier, to build the atmosphere for Hatsune, he had specifically positioned Sakiko so Hatsune couldn't see her directly. Now, it was time for step two!
