Repairs

"So sorry about the big mess, I hope this is helping."

"It's fine, don't worry about it."

"Really though, you are so nice to be doing this for us. We've never found another hyu-mane as kind as you are in a long time."

"Like super long!"

"It's human, and it's nothing really."

"What's hyu-mane?"

"No, I mean it's pronounced human, can you pass me those nails over there?"

Syri leaped over and pawed at the box of nails, struggling to grasp them and only pushing them back and forth from each paw. She fussed and pouted before resigning to using her tails, wrapping them around the container and running back on all fours.

"Must be nice to have fingers. We can't grab anything without our tails."

Janette wiped the sweat off her forehead, sighing and reaching for the box as Syri passed by. Picking them up, her tails then brushed her hand before caressing her arm and shoulder before retreating.

"S-Sorry! They're very touch-y touch-y, it's a habit I struggle to control."

She shrugged, selecting a nail and putting it in place before resuming to hammer in the wooden frame. "Aren't tails as easy as walking on all fours for you guys? Pretty sure their are some advantages for having them around."

Syri sat up with her legs crossed. "It helps for climbing and stuff, they basically help keep us balanced and grab at things. It's more work than to use fingers for you guys."

"Yea, yea." Agreed Dimyri, nodding her head. "So, anyway we can help you here? I feel so bad, because we helped do this and now your place is all broken."

Janette shrugged. "Not all bad, just a shattered window, some repainting, gunna need to fix a door or two. Could have been worse, didn't cross my mind about the damages when your friend had her claws out for me."

"Oh yea, that's Na'Vi. She's aggressive!"

"I can tell."

Syri giggled but paused when she noticed Janette wasn't amused. "Sorry, it's how she is. She might be that way for a while, she doesn't like hoo-mans as much, had a bad history with them. Also she loves my sister as much as we do."

"Maybe more." Added Dimyri.

"And well, she is still pretty sour about Nityri choosing a hoo-man over her. That and she doesn't remember too much." She looked around before swiping a few nails with her tail and offering them to her. "Nails?"

Janette reached and grabbed one before returning to nailing the wooden board again. "Thanks. I mean, as long as you guys aren't messy or anything then we should be good. It's gunna be hard I imagine, we don't know when that hunter gets here. 'Till then, you're welcome to stay."

"Yipp! Thank you thank you thank youuuu!" Both girls cheered as they trapped their host in a tight hug, tails wagging with glee.

"Agh, hey! Can't-breathe!"

"Kissie fight! Muah muah muah muah!" Both girls cheered before showering Janette with a volley of love all over her face and shoulders. They were light kisses, nothing romantic only a gesture of gratitude. Still, the lack of personal space and being caught between the two kept our poor girl struggling to break free from their tight embrace.

"Aagh-stop it! Don't make me call in the wolf!"

Out of the corner of the hallway, KuliKuli chuckled at the sight of her siblings before retreating back into her room. Pushing the door ajar she found Felix fidgeting with his sweaty shirt, exhausted and tired from the labor he spent all day performing. She felt her cheeks grow red as her eyes enjoyed the view, teeth biting softly into her lip before pushing the door behind her.

"That's a sight that makes any woman quiver."

Felix spun around, lifting his shirt off and running his hand through his moppy hair in an attempt to comb it. "Good to know haha. Today was a killer, how are the girls doing?"

"My sisters are helping Janette fix the wall that we broke the other night, which should be done by tomorrow thanks to you. I wasn't sure we could do it overnight, until my big strong man caught enough wood to do so." She smirked, hooking her arm across his and running her paw over his bicep.

Felix blushed. "She did say it wasn't the right kind of wood, whatever that means. I can still hear her hammering away, she needs to stop and rest for the night. We went at fixing the place all day now, and I think I can hear those two making kissing noises at her."

"Hehehe, yes that would be Syri and Dimyri. I like them, they're quite silly together."

He smiled back, stroking her paw delicately with his hand. "How are you handling this, finding your family and all?"

"Actually, they found me hehe."

"Right haha, still. I don't know how long we can help them or what happens later."

KuliKuli purred slightly, leaning into her master and pressing her lips against his. His body heat, that smell, his skin which felt oh so soft to the touch. Feeling his hands on her waist, he spoke first once they departed from their kiss.

"Not sure if this is the best time, company and all."

KuliKuli smiled and pushed him down, falling with an oomf onto the bed behind him. Crawling over him on all fours, torturing him with her slender figure and patient movement, she kept her gaze fixated onto her master, her mate.

"If this is your way of thanking me-"

"This is my way of loving you, for everything... Master." She whispered when face to face before descending for a lover's kiss, feeling her waist sit on his lap and the reward he held for her concealed beneath those trousers. That smell, his body, his eyes, everything about him felt addictive to her like a drug of some kind. Perhaps the best kind of drug we all suffer from, love.
