Work Text:
Koharu tucked her wings under the ushanka. its a bit uncomfortable but her disguise was important, she was a long way from Trinity and did NOT want to be spotted by anyone. The heavy winter coat hid her second set of wings and kept her warm as she trotted through the grounds of Red Winter.
It was already getting late in the evening, and the wind and cold was picking up. She hurried her way around the campus to the library she had pre-arranged a meeting at.
Her heart beat nearly doubled as she approached the doors. it was shady, it was sketchy, it was something Trinity’s justice task force would NEVER allow her to do.
But she had to, she's completely justified this whole series of actions a trillion times in her head. Koharu is sure, CERTAIN that this is totally justified. Afterall it wasn't hurting anyone, it was just for her, her guilty pleasure, its all oka-
"pssssst, heeeeey!"
Meru noticed the figure standing stiff in the doorway with her hand on the door handle and hoped she wouldn't just stand there and freeze.
"you have to push the door to open!" Koharu felt terribly embarrassed, she hadn't even tried to open the door, and as soon as she heard Meru she pulled on the door. Meru put a hand over her face as she let a few chuckles sneak loose. Koharu managed to figure out her way around a door and she walked into the library and walked up to Meru.
Meru was dressed casually and comfortably in a fluffy soft material white dress. She ushered Koharu back into a comfortable little nook in the back of the library. it had been set up with some hot chocolate and plated up pudding.
Koharu wasn't comfortable with the idea of sitting down in a publicly accessible place nor did she like the idea of getting cozy at all, she thought this was going to be a quick exchange. She couldn't muster the courage to express her displeasure though as Meru sank into her chair and offered a hand that pointed Koharu to hers. \
"The cocoa should warm you up, Let me know if you need sugar or a napkin~"
Koharu hesitantly sat down after ensuring there was no one else around. She picked up a cup and lowered her mask to take a sip.
Meru took notice "Get comfortable, No one is stopping by tonight. Momiji closed up shop hours ago and no one can even check out anything right now. just relax."
Koharu made it this far, maybe she was in the clear. she unhooked her mask and took off her hat.
She stretched out her wings much to Meru's delight.
"woooooah, please, you'll have to let me make a few reference sketches of those."
"I uh, okay." She wasn't sure what was so special about them but so long as it isn't an actual picture.
"Awww, look at them go, that's so cute oh my goodness, I love them!"
Koharu pulled the cup up in front of her face.
"Can I feel them?" Koharu look directly to Meru. "ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!"
Meru was a bit taken aback but shrugged it off. She took a spoonful of her pudding.
"Okay, sure, I understand.... mhm... .... .... are they sensitive?"
Koharu raised an eyebrow.
"what do you mean?"
"Are they sensitive?"
"I'm not sure what you mean -._-.
They're wings."
"Do you ever let people touch your wings?"
"No."
"is that because they're... erogenous?"
Koharu tilted her head in confusion. She thought she heard that word from Honako before.
"Nevermind, Don't answer that. I think I'd be crushed if you said no."
She took another bite of pudding and made a mental note that wings would be a great visual addition to one of her original characters.
"I do wish I had the chance to meet more Trinity students. I'm sure the prudent standards that you enforce makes for some very repressed students. Let me tell you, the best ideas come from either the most free or the most repressed students. oh and when the two meet!” Meru gave a chef's kiss.
“It's the best way to make sparks. I've seen some of the most amazing things when watching Gehenna and Trinity students meet. The bold adventurous nature of Gehenna's student body and the fierce curiosity of Trinity girls, it's just, oh my goodness can't you see it's just
meant to be!?
. Oh and the stressed and overworked Gehenna perfect team, just looking to let go and give in, and the stuck up Justice task force just begging to break every rule, the most taboo, to most rewarding rules to break, just to see, just to satisfy those urges they've totally denied in public but can't help but indulge in private~~~"
Koharu just about slammed her fists on the table in disgust. ABSOLUTELY N-!"
She held her words for a moment and waited for her wings to step flapping erratically. it was just, so much her head was spinning.
Almost drooling, Meru asked: "Tell me Koharu, and be really honest. Are there any Gehenna students your eyes are just... drawn to? Maybe a pair of horns that look particularly nice, a pointed tail that mesmerizes you?"
Koharu couldn't even look at her, the war in her mind was raging. There was the explosive desire to deny every scandalous accusation and immediately dispel any possible misconception that she would have eyes lingering on any of her fellow students, ESPECIALLY any kind of fetish or taboo born from the differences in her rival school's typically more demonesque traits.
There was a desire in her mind to scream "DEATH PENALTY" right this moment....
But...
…But there was another part of her, and other thoughts fighting her instincts of self preservation. her desire to preserve her outward appearances. but Meru knows why she is here. Meru knows who she is. Meru knows about that little part of her that wants to shout: "m mmm ma mmmak"
Meru dropped everything and perked up. Her full attention was squarely on her new client. she took the bait and now shes ready to bite.
"mooomkot kot mmm makoto..."
Koharu almost couldn't hear herself over her own beating heart.
Meru closed her eyes and let out a wistful sigh. a brave soldier just made it over the hill. Meru couldn't possibly be more proud. She leaned down and dug into a stack of comics piled up in a box by the table. She fished out a few doujinshi. A smug grin planted its face firmly on Meru's face before she came back up to look at Koharu.
"Good taste, good taste. I respect it."
"and..."
Meru nearly jumped out of her seat. Theres more?
"And izzzzzmmnmnmmm... ...Izumi" Koharu coughed after letting it out. Like it was actively making her sick to indulge in such perverted acts.
Meru set down the Doujins on the table and fished out a few more.
"*AHEM* now, please do remember that any and all similarities between my characters and real life figures are purely coincidental and are incidental"
Koharu plucked a comic from the table and took a look at the cover. A tall and proud standing Makoto holding a riding crop while looking sadistically at the reader. Her clothes all sticking her body a bit unrealistically, showing off every curve. The title “Pandemonium in the bedroom”.
“Oh! That ones a bit uh-”
Meru reached to take it out of Koharu’s hands but without a word she stuffed it in her bag and grabbed another.
Koharu examined the cover. “Let me taste you, senpai!”. A girl that was certainly similar to Izumi looked pleadingly at the viewer with mouth agape, drool, presumably, dripping down her chin. Again, with no words it was stuffed in Koharu’s bag.
Meru watched with smug satisfaction as Koharu became more and more flush as she nabbed comic after comic and deemed them all worthy.
There was one left. It sat on the table as Koharu just stared. Her pupils seemed to narrow as she just… stared at it. Fixated. She clearly wanted to say something but the words were stuck in her throat. Makoto was on the cover, it was a point of view from someone holding her hand. She looked shy and bashful. The words next to her “mm m- my first kiss???”
It was by far the tamest doujin in the selection. Its a wholesome story about a sweet and fluffy sort of date. Really tame. The reader saves Makoto from a bad date by helping her when her plans go wrong. In the end there's a chaste kiss and it ends.
“Is there a problem with this one?”
Koharu covered most of her face with her wings and whispered
“First… kiss… woah~”
Meru watches with fascination as Koharu slowly and hesitantly stashes the comic in her bag.
Meru had a thought.
“Wait, have you had your first kiss?”
Koharu nearly falls out of her chair.
“Wha-! Hhh how, well, AHEM, You, YOU, you can’t just ask if, I, Thats, Th thththtats entirely-”
“You haven’t ?!?!?!?!?”
Koharu shot up out of her chair. And nearly immediately fell flat on her face. Meru jumped into action to help her. But the weight of Koharu’s bag threw off her balance, and as she reached out to stop herself from face planting she fell into Meru.
Meru closed her eyes when she was taken down. She opened them to see Koharu’s brightly blushing face hovering just above her. Her wings fully blocked out the surroundings, there was nowhere to look but right into her eyes.
“Do you, maybe, want to kiss?”
Koharu’s breathing was heavy and her whole body was shaking and-
-fwump-
She passed out. Right on top of Meru.
“Ah well.Thank you Koharu. You’ve given me a lot of inspiration”
