Somewhere out in the desert, the Debauchery Tea Party makes camp.

"Tingling Touch." Eva's hand began to glow with a swirling blue energy that poured off of it, seeming to ground into the atmosphere around it.

"Wait, what's that!?" Amara fidgeted from her spot in Niki's lap. She already knew the answer. She could feel it from where she was.

"Just a little training spell..." Eva said, as the blue light sparkled in her eyes. "A small wake of mana, strong enough to pour off the body like the aura when one casts a spell. It's one of the first things we learned at Wizard School. My only innovation was to sink enough mana into it for a Level 2 spell. Intensity... duration... range, if you can call it that, all extended--"

Niki suddenly pinned Amara's arms, just as the Cleric had been preparing to jump up from her lap.

"What's the matter?" Eva asked wickedly. "It's your turn today. Aren't you a bad girl?"

"You don't understand what you're doing to me," Amara begged. "I can already feel it, at this distance, strumming my Gordian Knot like a guitar. If you even come near me with that thing, I'm going to..."

"Detect Magic."

Amara shuddered and came lightly as the wake of the spell-casting washed over her. But the buzzing in her clit didn't go away. Far from it, the extra spell effect, efficient and self-contained though it was, once cast, made her predicament just the slightest bit worse.

"Yes, I see it," Eva said. "The waves of mana are making your knot pulse and throb when they come into contact with it. So even at this range, it's almost too much stimulation for you, huh?"

"No, please..."

Eva took a step back, and Amara's breathing began to relax.

Then it quickened again, as Eva slowly swept her hand from side to side in front of her.

"D-don't tease," Amara squeaked. Then she yelped and shuddered in Niki's arms as the mage took a step forward again.

"No teasing? Really?" She 'spanked' the air between them with her hand, watching the Cleric's hips bucked violently in time with her movements.

"Not what I meant! Not what I meant!" She thrashed uncontrollably as Niki held her safely in place.

"Back off," Niki said gruffly. "Give her a break."

Eva wandered off to the far side of the fire, where she spent the next few minutes idly bouncing on her heels and waving her arms around as her hand continued to glow and pulse.

"You okay?" Niki asked.

"Gods, yes." Amara breathed. "The brat is still teasing me, even at this range, but I believe it is bearable."

"Just give the signal if you want to stop," Niki reminded her.

"I realize that," Amara said, sounding ever so slightly indignant. Part of her wanted to prove she could take it. Part of her was keeping score so she could pay Eva back when it was her turn to be the bad girl. And part of her just wanted to experiment with this new experience of having her mana-flow manipulated by ****.

She wasn't used to someone else having control over her Gordian Knot. It was quite different from the ecstasy that sized her when she, herself cast a spell. It made her **** in a way that she had seldom experienced in the arms of friends. But with Niki to hold her, to lean against, she felt safe.

"I believe that I am ready to continue," she told Niki. "I... 'am a bad girl.' Please punish me."

"C'mon back, Eva!" the warrior shouted.

Amara's helpless shuddering resumed before Eva even made it as far as the fire.

"...and, roughly speaking, that's the last document I ever translated from English into Nihongo," Shiroe said. "Just some sort of back-and-forth nonsense between two random internet users on an erotic fiction site. I spent six months on the thing, poring over dictionaries and grammar guides. Truth be told, I don't remember most of the names they used, so I just sprinkled in our names where they seemed appropriate. Every word other than a name is burned into my memory, though. I recite it to myself once a week so I won't completely forget English. I just hope something of the original authors' intents came through."

"Perhaps the Magic of the Land cleaned it up a bit for you while further translating it into my language," Xylyra suggested, resting her chin on her palm and her elbow on his lap. "I think I got the gist of it. Do you suppose that 'Gina' person ever responded? Did she really figure out what the poem meant? Did she impress that succubus you gave my name to? Or rescue her, or whatever she imagined her role in the story would be?"

"I don't know. I suppose we'll never find out. This world doesn't have an internet. Even if we invented a magical one, it would have no way of connecting to Earth's internet. It's not like we could just stumble across her story some day while searching the web and add a chapter to it."

Xylyra laid her head down sideways on Shiroe's lap and idly watched the campfire burn.

"I think that I would have liked to meet her," she said finally. "It's a shame magic doesn't exist in your world. Otherwise, perhaps someday she could find a way to... I don't know... 'cross over' somehow."

"Well, she's not exactly from my world," Shiroe corrected. "Although, come to think of it, people crossing over into other worlds isn't all that unlikely. Even into works of fiction, given my situation."

"Do you suppose it would work as fiction?" Xylyra asked. "One or both of these scholars of smut going on an epic quest across worlds to meet this Xylyra person?"

"Oh, goodness no," Shiroe said. "It would be complete kuso. Or schlock, I believe, is the English equivalent. The kind of self-indulgent nonsense that keeps escalating until the original stories fall apart at the seams. At best, it would be a one-off omake. But it would probably be a fun romp.

On the other side of the fire, Niki and Amara began to scream. They were naked and facing together, their legs interlaced in some sort of advanced position, while Eva held her glowing hand above the spot where their crotches pressed together. Their hands dug into the sand as they **** their crotches together. All Eva had to do was wiggle her fingers to make them feel all sorts of things.

"If she does it, I hope she gets the girl," Xylyra said.
