Danica entered her temporary housing with a yawn. It’d been a fairly tedious day on duty. She’d been hoping to get a closer scan of a neutron star they were passing. But an issue with one of the lateral sensors had kept her busy recalibrating most of her shift. So instead of stargazing she’d been looking at coordinate overlays and access panels. Tomorrow, she supposed.
Anya hadn’t arrived yet, so Dani made herself comfortable, removing her boots and uniform jacket, before plopping down on the couch and beginning a brief game of checkers against the computer.
Later than usual, Anya walked in, carrying her uniform jacket over her shoulder. "Hey", she greeted. Straight on to the replicator, she got a glass of darjeeling and sat down on the sofa. She needed a break.
“Rough day for you too?” Dani said, turning a little to face the security officer. “I feel like mine was endless disruptions.”
"And mine was endless phasings", Anya smirked. "Disruptors would have been a nice change."
Danica shout her a faux-annoyed glance, but a smile broke through. “Very funny.” Dani tried moving her neck to crack it. “Seriously though, subjunction 18B and I got to be very close friends today. I should have brought a pillow. Though I’m sure awkward positions are common on the tactical-security side of things.”
Anya warmed her hand on her mug of tea, then used it to massage the point on Dani's neck that appeared to be giving her trouble. "Mostly bruises, easy to take care of, or just ignore."
“Oh that feels lovely,” Dani said closing her eyes and leaning into it a little. “You’ve got strong hands. You could have made a hell of a masseuse.” She wiggled a little to give Anya a better angle. “Bruises aren’t too bad, I guess. I still end up with some of those, but usually because I ran into a console or something.”
"I'm glad you approve", Anya grinned. "But I'm usually better dealing damage than healing it." She grinned. "My close combat classes are infamous."
“I can imagine,” Dani said. “Do you have a forte? Punches, kicks, wrestling, martial arts, whatever else fighting involves?”
"Anything up close and personal", she said, "But not tied down. Wrestling is inefficient unless you're bigger and stronger than your opponent, and even then it takes time. So it's okay if you have to subdue someone but don't want to hurt them. But to be quick and efficient? A stab, or a quick palm strike, those are usually best."
“Interesting,” Danica said, rolling her shoulders to Anya’s hand. “I just point a tricorder at things. I could probably use a refresher on my phaser training too. Though not tonight. I’m feeling more lazy tonight.”
"I'm not going out there any more tonight. You've had your sword training, that'll do for now", Anya chuckled. "How come you're suddenly so interested in fighting, anyway? I don't get that a lot from science-y types."
The truth was somewhat complicated. Danica had always been opposed to violence when other options existed. And she still was. But the events on the Grissom had shaken her a bit. She’d been helpless to stop the catastrophe or save her friends. True, it wasn’t her fault and it hadn’t involved a single phaser. But she still felt exposed. And while she might not like it, knowing how to fend for herself could be life saving. The fact that it was what Anya did all day also added to her interest in knowing a bit more. Dani wasn’t ready to divulge all that, but she provided a little information. “Just thinking about being a little more self sufficient. Plus, it’d be rude if I had no interest in what you do all day.”
Anya smiled. "Thank you. Most of it is mundane, maintenance work just like I'm sure you have to do when there's nothing exciting to look at."
“Yeah. Like today for example. Luckily, there’s almost always something interesting for me to look at.” Dani said, before peaking back over her shoulder. “Lately, that’s been true even when I’m off duty.”
"So you're enjoying your stay over in enlisted country?" Anya grinned, though she did begin to have an idea what Dani actually meant. But she could string her on for the fun of it, no?
“I suppose,” Danica said, measuring her words. “I was thinking of something a little more specific though. Plus, I am excited to be able to move into my own quarters. Liorga’s stuff is nice, but it’s not mine.” She paused, trying to make sure Anya understood she didn’t mean she didn’t like rooming with her. “Not that I’m looking to stop staying with you. I’m really enjoying that part.”
"So, what can I do to make you feel even more welcome here?" Anya asked, taking another sip of her tea before putting the mug down to bring her second hand in. "Looks like neck massages are a good start, at least."
Dani wiggled happily. “Hmmm. Neck massages are a very good start. Massages in general, really.”
Anya leaned in, smelling Dani's hair. "Interesting M.O., inviting yourself as a house guest, seducing the natives", she teased.
“Who me? I’d never,” the blonde teased. “I wasn’t the one showing herself off.”
"Actually..." Anya grinned. "Wet shirts are fairly revealing."
“True...though that wasn’t exactly planned,” Dani said with a little chuckle. “It’s not as revealing as if it wasn’t there though...”
"Not much of a difference, if you ask me. Such a fine line, you see?" Anya grinned. "Or fine fabric, in this case."
“Fair,” Dani said in a teasing tone. “That is a pretty tactical way to look at it though. We deal in detail in the sciences.” She paused. “Ooh, a little lower.”
"We're all shaped by our schooling in the way of our thinking", Anya said, turning philosophical for a moment as her hands moved lower. "I try not to be as machiavellian off-duty, as I'm sure you're not quite as calculating?"
“You’re right. I was just poking some fun,” Dani said, settling into the massage a little more. Anya really was an excellent masseuse. “So what do you want to do tonight? After this massage, of course. Definitely not trying to rush that.”
"Nothing that requires leaving this room", Anya said. "I'm knackered. Beyond that, I'm open to suggestions." And Dani had been fairly suggestive already, so Anya figured she'd press her luck.
“I have an idea or two,” Dani said with a smile, though she kept her eyes closed. “We wouldn’t need to leave your quarters. Though if you’re too tired...”
"Let's hear it", Anya said. "My brain's working, it's just my legs."
Dani almost lost her nerve, but a glance back over her shoulder reassured her. Anya’s hair had fallen in a way that always caught Danica’s eye. “The massage is a good start. But it’d require something a little more comfortable than our uniforms.” She wasn’t about to come right out and say it. Yet.
"Yes, this is true", Anya agreed. "Let's get cosy. Get the lights down, get a little... oh! I know! Computer, put a holographic fire place by the door, lots of flames, moderate heat."
“That’s better,” Dani said. “Ugh. I don’t really to want to get up and change. But I will if you promise this massage will continue when I get back.”
"I promise!" Anya smiled. "And you can do my legs later. That'll more than make up for it. I'll get us some snacks, too."
“Deal,” Danica said. She hopped over to her bed alcove and out of view, tossing her uniform toward the bin while she tried to decide what to actually put on. “Also grab me something warm to drink. Cocoa, maybe?”
Anya did as she was asked. Cocoa, that meant scones and biscuits for food. Snack foods, they could both afford them, she figured. She placed them on the table, then exchanged all of her clothes for something fresh that didn't smell of phaser maintenance. A light floral dress would do, Anya had many of those. She picked one in red, which she figured would go well with the flames.
Dani re-emerged, opting for the more casual look. She’d donned a red slim t-shirt and black yoga pants. She hopped in the couch and smiled as Anya brought the food over.
She settled back down and put her arm around Dani. "Come, move over a little and I'll get right back to it." There were worse things she could be doing with her hands, Anya figured.
“You’ll get no argument from me,” Dani said, turning but keeping herself up against Anya. “Feel free to expand outside the shoulder region if you want to.”
"Promise not to complain to the doctor if you end up requiring help in the morning?" Anya grinned. "I make no guarantees." She didn't wait for an answer, though. She pushed her forward just a little so she could move her hands down the back.
“Oh I’m sure you’ll do fine, especially if this is any indication.” Dani let Anya mould her into whatever position worked. She propped herself up with a pillow.
Anya's fingers went out to find the fleshy bits to squeeze, which she was comfortable Dani wouldn't mind right then. She avoided the spine, also for fear of doing damage, and focused on the sides, eventually the belly.
Dani cooed a little as Anya’s hand moved. “Anya...Liorga’s not going to swing by, right?”
"I very much doubt it", Anya said. "She's with the doctor, they're inseparable."
“Good,” Dani said. She only hesitated a moment, before arching her back and leaning against Anya. She reached her hand up, softly holding Anya’s chin, and pulling Anya’s lips to her own.
Anya was glad, she'd read Dani right. Their lips met and she wrapped her arms around her from behind. Anya's heart was pounding. This either worked now or it wouldn't at all.
Danica’s heart was racing, and she could hear it in her ears. She lingered a moment before pulling away just an inch. “That’s more like it,” she said, before pulling Anya to her again. She pushed herself tightly against the brunette as her hand slid into Anya’s hair.
"The good doctor had an excellent idea", Anya smiled. She snuggled up against Dani and figured she'd better make good use of the time she was staying around. A conquest? No, she had promised not to think machiavellian.
“I think she may have planned this,” Dani said, between kisses. She settled her hand on Anya’s leg, curling her fingers around it. “By the way, you don’t have to stop using those hands.”
"I wasn't going to. Just got distracted here for a second", Anya grinned. She resumed her earlier attentions, only not as tentative as before. "Remember what you promised?" She asked, a good opportunity as Dani already had one hand on her leg.
“Yes,” Dani said, kneading Anya’s leg with her hand. “But I don’t want to stop this just yet."
Anya smiled. "You're very fit, you know? How do you do that, anyway, spending all day in the lab?" Exploration told her things, and questions were raised.
“I don’t spend all of my time in the lab,” Dani teased. “I still work out. Mostly core and cardio, though I do some strength training.”
"This humble security officer thanks you for it", Anya said. She tickled Dani's belly.
Dani squirmed laughing, massaging Anya’s leg. “And this Science Officer thanks you for these muscles of yours.”
"We do look pretty amazing, don't we?" Anya grinned. She didn't usually compliment herself but she was still young and in great shape, and while with someone who had no reason to be insecure? Why not?
“That we do,” Dani said. She was trying to contemplate her next move. A lot of options floated through her mind. “Though we already knew that...”
Anya went back to an actual, effective massage. This was still fun, after all. "You were the shy one, not me." But then, see-through was a lot sexier than outright nude, in Anya's opinion.
“True...” Dani said. “I just wasn’t expecting you to be that comfortable. Though it’s good to know it shouldn’t be too hard to get you back there.” She winked.
Anya laughed. "Are you saying I'm easy?"
“No,” Dani said with a slightly uncertain nervous laugh. Her face flushed slightly. “You’re just... more comfortable with your body.”
"Honestly? I think we all should be", Anya smiled. "Especially around me, if you smell what I'm stepping in?"
“Well, I think you’ll find me pretty easy to convince to go along with things,” Dani said. She wanted to flip who was doing the touching but didn’t want to end her massage just yet.
"Hmm, so I needn't replicate a whip and a dominatrix outfit?" Anya joked.
“Yes, you needn't do that,” Dani laughed. “The whip sounds scary.”
"It can be. But that's an entirely different holodeck adventure", Anya giggled. She caressed Dani's hair. "No, it's not what you think."
Dani laughed. “I don’t even know what that’s supposed to mean.” She wiggled under Anya’s hands. Just another moment or two…
“I dig old things”, Anya smirked. “Nah, Indiana Jones cosplay. He was a really bad caricature of… oh, I think it was Heinrich Schliemann. You know, the guy who treated archaeology as an adventure and destroyed most of his finds.”
“By comparison, Jones was a preservationist,” Dani joked. She positioned herself so there was space on the couch next to her. “Hey can you get my shoulders,” she asked, knowing it’d require Anya to reach for it.
“Vulcan nerve pinches coming up” Anya joked as she reached over, not that she wanted Dani unconscious, or even knew how to do them.
Dani waited until Anya was slightly off balance. In a quick flurry of motion, she pulled Anya down onto the couch. Dani was on top of her in a flash. She’d decided to surprise Anya and take charge, at least for a little. She met the brunette’s lips, her hair surrounding their faces. Her hands pinned Anya’s above her head, though she knew she wasn’t strong enough to hold her. Anya was just playing along.
At first, Anya was just surprised, but then she did indeed. Why would she fight something this enjoyable? She returned the kiss in earnest, wrapping her legs around Dani’s in the process. Dani on top, that was an idea Anya could definitely get behind - or below.
The rest, dear reader, is a matter of imagination. Remember, a dirty mind is a joy forever, and Dani and Anya will return for new mischief in a later episode.
