Prom 2018, Community Center, Friday Evening

Sure, the extreme winter weather had come and gone, but it had clearly still been on the minds of those in Student Council when they'd planned tonight's dance, as the theme went in the complete opposite direction.

Welcome, Fandom, to a tropical paradise!

There were palm trees, of course... as well as giant tissue-paper flowers hanging from the ceiling and brightly colored cutouts of frogs and parrots decorating the walls. Possibly with a good deal more glitter than one would usually associate with such a theme, but this was Fandom.

"M'poor Hyacinthe, trapped on th' island during one of its spats of mischief," she replied, because yes, Ada had figured out that it was a pollen week. "Gotta say, that's one I don't miss."

Look, Ada was an adult, female mermaid. She had enough of a libido without the pollen, and being afflicted with that while at home, without any of her favorite people, would have been torture.

Hyacinthe was pretty sure that Duncan would have volunteered for tribute pretty much immediately. But it wasn't his place to say.

"It has been the truest amounts of torture," he informed her. "All of my favorites have graduated and gone away and there's no one left who believes in fun anymore. 'Tis heartbreaking. I believe the dorms have turned into some kind of Yeshuite convent."

He wasn't pouting he was just...

Ada was extremely oblivious when it came to Duncan. There were bets going around the rest of the family as to if she'd ever notice, or if he'd get up the guts to say something. The Millers really were the biggest gossips ever.

She was just going to need to sweetly kiss that pout off his face. "Are y'going t' stay for th' summer, or go back after graduation?"

He hadn't been pouting! His lower lip had always stuck out that far!

"Haven't decided yet," he said, running a hand through his hair. "My mother and Phedre wish me to come home and I miss them, but seems foolish not to take m'lord Delaunay for all he's willing to give." He kissed the side of her temple. "There may be one or two other considerations to staying in this time for the summer, too."

"Don't gotta decide tonight, or even tomorrow," she said, reaching up to brush his hair away from his face. "B'sides, regardless of location, you're gonna have t' deal with me sneaking away t' come see you, since your summer is my winter, an' we don't tour in th' winter."

"Well, there goes my plan to sneak away and visit you," Hyacinthe teased, catching her hand to brush a kiss over it. "You missed the week before, when this place was covered practically to the eaves in snow."

Ada wrinkled up her nose. "Ew," she said eloquently, for she was never ever going to be a creature that enjoyed snow. "'S April. Ain't no reason for that much snow!"

"You quite nearly discovered a Tsingano foundling on your doorstep," he informed her. "The first weekend, there was neither heat nor electricity. I curled up in my blankets and felt like I was five again. 'Twas an experience I could have done without."

"You're always more'n welcome, don't gotta be a sad foundling," she promised, "--but especially during somethin' like that."

The trailers didn't always have heat, and it still got cold sometimes, both on tour and in the Arizona winter. And more than a few times food had been tight, and same with power in the generators. Of course she'd sweep him up and wrap him in blankets and keep him warm. That was what you did for people, if you could.

When all you had was nothing, there was enough to go around.

"I don't believe I would have gotten a portal in all that mess, otherwise I would have," he promised. "After that, the power returned, so 'twas not that bad. Though I cannot run to you every time things grow difficult, rinkeni. Otherwise, when would I leave?"

"You'd get bored, stayin' around us that long," she laughed. "Or tired of cousins trying t' put you t' work."

"Bah," Hyacinthe said, nose in the air like an offended D'Angeline dandy. "Put me to work? Please, they'd be begging for the Prince of Travelers to perform his wonders for the adoring crowds. Begging."

"One of the little old lady cousins would hit you on th' head with her stirring spoon an' tell you t' go earn your keep," Ada snickered. "Most of us might be impressed with your skills, of handsome Prince, but some of 'em have seen everything an' ain't impressed no more, not unless you magically stole a goat or five that wouldn't be missed."

"Do you doubt a Tsingano's ability to steal livestock?" Hyacinthe gasped. "I'd not known you had it in you to be so cruel, rinkeni." He leaned in and with his best 21st century impression added, "It's kinda hot."

"Ones that wouldn't be noticed," Ada pointed out. "Most farmers know 'zactly how many goats they should have, chavo, they don't got enough of 'em t' be careless with 'em."

"Though if'n it's cruel you want tonight..." Ada pressed up against him, leaning in to give his lower lip a little nip. "I'll oblige."

Hyacinthe shivered, wondering how much Ada would complain if they stepped inside, took a picture, and then he just carried her off to the hotel room he'd gotten for the night as a surprise.

And then wondered whether the picture was entirely necessary as well.

"You'd be cruel to me?" he asked, voice low and purring. "How?"

Ada slipped just barely out of his grasp, to slide behind him, trailing her fingers along his waistband. "You don't get to touch me," she breathed quietly into his ear. "You don't get to taste me. Not until I decide you've earned it."

Hya's breathing sped up and his eyes widened. "You'd not," he half-dared. "'Twould be cruel to you as well. You like it when I touch you. When I taste you."

"I do," she agreed, staying behind him. "--but I would, if you wanted me to be cruel."

"Maybe you have to sit still and be good while I have some fun. Alone."

Hyacinthe groaned. That sounded wonderful. That sounded terrible.

He turned, trying to catch her hips. "And would you enjoy it?" he asked, because as much fun as it sounded, it wouldn't be worth it were she doing it only for his pleasure.

Ada just gave him a sunny grin. "I like bein' in charge," she admitted, without a trace of shame. "Bein' in control, an' choosin' when I give it up is fun."

~~The girl with little-to-no control over her own life had it as a kink? SHOCKING.~~

Why would she be ashamed for that? Well, possible ashamed for the state she'd just put Hyacinthe in, but so long as he stood behind her for a few moments, that would be fine, too.

"Then tonight, my rinkeni, after we leave prom, I think you should be as cruel to me as you wish."

But only after. Because if he couldn't touch her all night during the dance, he might well and truly die.

She'd even lean in to him a bit, to help conceal that state. "After," she promised, with a sweet little kiss that offered hints of dark corners before they left the dance. "I just want a few dances first, an' maybe some punch."

Dances where he could touch her to his heart's content, because she'd die if she tried to go all night without contact.

Odd how all that leaning wasn't helping.

"You can have aught you wish tonight," Hyacinthe told her. "Including my obedience," he added in a dark whisper in her ear.

Fiiiiiiiiiine. She shifted back just slightly, letting the layers of her gown help with concealment instead, though the smirk she shot him was absolutely unrepentant.

"'S your prom," she purred, toying with his collar lightly. "You also get whatever you want tonight."
