The immovable demon and the unstoppable goblin

The water streamed down her face, she listened to it. That endless hiss of thousands of droplets, her own personal rainstorm. The shampoo smelled like lavender, something she would never notice outside of this situation. The water was pleasantly hot, and the air was steamy as she rinsed herself off, the water leaving pleasant slickness to her skin as she turned slowly, a cloth over her eyes to keep the suds from running into them. Normally she sang in the shower, but she was deep in thought. She had prided herself on being a she-wolf, a manhunter, a player. It had almost been a year since the last time she had a proper stud.

It had almost been a year since the last time she'd had anyone.

Her sister was suddenly the romantic one, with her now the wallflower. Had she lost her touch? She turned off the shower, listening now to the soft drip of a single droplet. How could she carry herself with the confidence she used to now that she'd gone so long without a conquest? She stepped out of the shower, shaking her head and spraying the walls and mirror with water. Her little orange towel was neatly folded for her, another thing she noted. She used to just grab it from wherever it was, she'd just know and pick it up, now she's carefully preparing it. As Dorito walked back into her dorm from the on-suite shower, she wrapped the towel around herself, desperately needing a distraction from this train of thought.

As she thought to herself, she walked over to her dresser, pulling the bottom drawer out and pulling out a T-shirt. She was small, roughly half the size of a normal human, so the shirt would almost look like a full dress on her.

There was someone in the room with her.

Her ears, resembling those of a bat and each ending in a point, twitched a few times. She turned around, her large eyes a brilliant orange like gems catching torchlight. She let one of her long, slender arms drop to her side, the mottled pattern of dark, brown splotches and spots on her earth-toned skin shifting as she tilted her head, some of her still-wet orange hair clinging to her skin. "Well hello there~" Her voice was friendly, but a bit too friendly, and squeaked as she spoke.

Dorito blinked a bit, taken aback by his lack of enthusiasm but also in his willingness to leave again. This wouldn't do at all. "Well, I could certainly help you if you'd be willing to stay put." She lowered her hand holding the shirt as well, her free hand holding her towel in place as she turned to face him slowly, smiling pleasantly, invitingly, and almost a bit suggestively.

"I mean, I can help you in a few ways if you don't mind hanging around." She began to walk towards him, sashaying her hips slightly as she spoke, gesturing over to her bed. "Feel free to take a seat, bed's a bit comfier than the chairs but it's up to you." She let her powers out, whispering into her new friend's mind softly, letting it sound like his own thoughts. Well, she did offer, and she seems okay with me being here, maybe I could stick around for just a bit? This girl looks helpful enough.

Dorito watched him sit on the bed, slowly lowering her hands, relaxing her grip on the towel. "Well, since you're looking for the academy, I can give you a little lesson in..." Did he just fall asleep? Dorito stared in dull surprise, did he really just fall asleep?

Well, that wouldn't do just yet. She walked over to the bed and lightly poked her new friend's tail a few times. She crawled onto the bed next, shaking him lightly with one hand. "Hey, hey. You gotta earn the right to pass out in my bed!"

"No, it's not time to leave. In fact, you're right where you need to be." She gave a small smirk as she spoke. "I'm a student at the academy, this is my dorm room." She gave him a small pat on the shoulder as she spoke, but then her eyebrow raised slightly as he mentioned her towel situation.

"I'm okay with it if you are, I mean... Unless you'd prefer me not wearing a towel?" She let her power out again, giving another small whisper of a thought. Might be interesting to see where she's going with this... It felt strangely good to start using her powers for this again, but she was worried she might have gotten rusty, due to how long it had been since she did this.
