Four knitted scarves

*the phone picks up mid-conversation, as if it's been knocked off the hook by clumsy teenagers Rose's voice comes from not too far.*
I still cannot believe we are doing this. Enjoyable as it might be, I must admit I still have some reservations about it.
Rose, I assure you your reservations are wholly misplaced. I have done this many, many times before, and it has ...almost always resulted in the full enjoyment of all involved parties.
*Rose scoffs a little, but wait, was that a hint of a giggle underneat?* I will give that much to you; you are quite skilled with your hands. I stand here jealous at this discovery...this is really nice though.
*There's the sound of shifting, and Kanaya almost sounds as though she has something in her mouth when she speaks next.* Sweeps of practice have rendered my digital manipulators quite dextrous, yes - and I'm quite pleased to hear that you're finding this to your liking. But as promised, no word of this liason shall ever pass my lips.
If I may ask you to hold as still as possible, Rose? This next part will be rather tight.
While I graciously accepted your request to lend myself to your ways, I must admit I haven't grown to like the fact you are handling me like a rag do-
*Rose's complain is cut as she gasps, and then speaks in a rather mortified tone*
That is...rather tight. My back will be reminding me of this with unforgiving soreness later
*And for her part, Kanaya does sound very apologetic.* I'm quite sorry, but I believe it's for the best to handle the worst of the discomfort at the beginning. I give the full weight of my word that it will be exponentially more agreeable - even satisfying - from this point on.
But please continue to hold still. I would feel very displeased with myself were I to inadvertently scratch you.
So you say. Perhaps it's because you are doing all the work. I feel as if I should probably take the matter into my own hands, but then that would mean you would be but an spectator. Either way one of us is left to watch.
*Rose's tone takes a degree of amusement*A scratch? Not for a lack of effort. I've been holding my breath at every "Hold Still" by now.
I would really rather engage with you directly than to be a mere observer of this flourishing radiance and beauty alike. It simply wouldn't be suitable. And besides, you're certainly a participant rather than a spectator, even if it's a far more passive role than you might prefer. I'm afraid I can't allow you to domineer our interactions every time.
But only a little further, and-- *And then there's a surprised intake of air as somebody notices the displaced phone and moves to hang up. Oops.*
*Somebody hasn't seen the phone yet*
Kanaya? Kanaya Mayram, don't you dare leaving me here without taking proper care of my clothes-
*And so ends the rather strange call*

Kanaya? Kanaya Mayram, don't you dare leaving me here without taking proper care of my clothes-
*And so ends the rather strange call*
Action
Is that... a sufficient answer to your quandary or must I verbalize it?
Action
It was quite sufficient, but I would like you to...expand on it. Maybe you forgot something to say?
[Saying that as she leans towards her again. This might become a trend.]
Action
*Smooch. Serious smooch.*
Action
[All the smooches. Rose's right hand moves up to Kanaya's back, as they maybe lean a little backwards. What with her being shorter than the troll girl. In time, her hand reaches her neck, and the buries itself on her dark hair.]
Action
...it feels nice, having Rose touch her hair like that. When Kanaya breaks the kiss off, she doesn't move much, merely pressing her cheek to Rose's so that the hair touching may continue.* This is...
...very pleasant.
Action
She's not letting go of her hair of course, as she caresses it softly even after they stop kissing.]
Very much pleasant. I wonder if we can carry on when we next meet. And the next time too. And then the next time as well, if possible.
Action
--oh no. She needs to make sure of something first.* ...Rose. Before we, um, discuss anything further, there is a very urgent question that I must ask of you. *And she sounds very serious here.* Are you... would you perhaps say that you were gay or were you a lesbian?
Which is it?
Action
You trolls should try to properly discuss these matters with humans before flinging them so carelessly at others. I take it you have not been properly explained the meaning of those words? But given the way you treat your affections I suppose it makes sense. Very well, let's see...
[She clears her throat, and removes her hands from her. In turn, though, she grabs Kanaya's hand with hers and pulls her to a couch so they can sit close and comfortably.]
Humans are far simpler on those matters, I'm sure you know. If it goes by terminology, then you can call them heterosexual or homosexual...among other more detailed but unnecessary complicated extra allocations. Heterosexuals, as the term conveys, are attracted to the opposite sex, while homosexuals are attracted to the same sex. Gay or lesbian are ways to refer to somebody who is homosexual, while the regular term to be used on heterosexuals is straight, it's simple to tell this all is firmly rooted on degradatory tendencies towards the homosexuals.
[Wait, so what is she?]
...in my particular case, ah, perhaps I should expand on the ways humans express their affections. The next term is bisexual. As it clearly stands, somebody identified as bisexual can be either attracted to their same sex or the opposite one. It usually is seen as an excuse of sorts, but if I'm to be honest I would say I probably stand there, because besides you, I had always thought my interests laid on the other side of the field--
[And she cringes, because her, using sport analogies?! What is this travesty!?!?!]
I could very well be lesbian though. By the way, lesbian is a term used exclusively for homosexual women, but gay might be applied for either gender. There are far more terms for people and what they are sexually attracted to, like the case of the so called asexual, which simply derive no pleasure at all from either gender, be it always or most of the time, with a number of tones down the scale, but I think you should first make sure this all isn't giving you some massive headache.
Action
I... I see. That is significantly more complex than how we trolls measure it. I had been under the assumption that "lesbian" referred to exclusive attraction to females and "gay" exclusive attraction to males no matter the gender. I see that that was inaccurate.
Action
I suppose you trolls don't discriminate gender when it comes to your affections. I seem to recall your reproductive methods are not the same as ours? Something to do with buckets perhaps...although I suppose you are capable of reproducing through intercourse as well.
I-I might be taking too many liberties now. [Her hold on Kanaya's hand lightens, as if fearing the girl would want to remove her hand.]
Action
--doesn't it seem entirely too soon to be even idly discussing matters of that sort in an intellectually curious manner? I mean, matespritship at my age is hardly considered to be a lasting bond and-- I mean, I am entirely fond of you and eminently enjoy your presence but this does seem all a bit inappropriate... doesn't it?
*She doesn't turn away or pull away her hand - but why did Rose have to mention the buckets?! - but she does avert her eyes, looking downward.* I have... much to think about, now. Perhaps we could, ah, resume the dress fitting and reconvene at a later date? *Shit, they've finished the dress fitting.* And... discuss things? As we did momentarily preceding this?
Action
Kanaya!
[This is all making her blush even more, but Rose is also just a bit annoyed now.]
Why on Earth would you think I would want to-- it was just-- Look, I explained it to you in an effort to properly explain the way humans sort out their affections, but trust me, I have no intention to undergo into any sort of reproductive and or long term- whatever.
[Insert frustrated sight. At least her hold on Kanaya's hand is back to "strong". She looks away, and starts talking, apparently half to herself.]
When it comes to it, I have no interest on defining my feelings. As you have said, ours is not precisely an age where anything is set on stone, and therefore it would be a mistake to take it as something bigger than it is, independently of who big of a something it currently seems to be. I did not mean to upset you or to lead you onto something that could have made you rethink about this. I...I guess I'll just excuse myself now.
[Welp, something went wrong somewhere right? Rose stands up and walks away- but she should probably let Kanaya go first.
...Maybe Kanaya will let go first.]
Action
I... if I've offended you in any way I sincerely apologize, it's merely that... *Kanaya shifts awkwardly.* It's all been slightly... rapid, just now. And perhaps it's in both of our best interests to approach anything of this sort in a more... cautious nature?
Action
We did start kissing in a rather unexpected fashion, yes. But I think I'm not the only one that felt relief when the other took it in stride, correct? I thereby propose we make a point on not touching the finer points of our...relationship until the time is right to do so.
I hope that doesn't involve not being with you while we try to figure things out though.
[Cue hopeful smile.]
Action
On all counts.
Action
[And there was awkward silence.]
Wouldn't you by chance want to keep kissing?
[Well, it's worth asking!]
Action
Action
[She leans a little towards Kanaya, none the less. And then a little more, tentatively eyeing the girl.]
Action
*Leaning in to kiss her once more.*
Action
So since they were sitting and now kissing, Rose is slightly over Kanaya, and as they continue she will slowly push the girl until she is effectively on top.]
Action
Action
Not that Rose is any conscious of this.]
Action
Action
Did you now? Maybe I should have foreseen that this would become a trend of sorts. But by all means, we can stop if you don't want to carry on.
