"So, Erza… what do you think about bondage?" The red-head blushed lightly as she spit her drink out of shock, rubbing her mouth clean of the drink she stared at her old friend. The brown-haired woman was a guild-less mage that sometimes accompanied her for a little bit of the pay. If Erza had to guess where her dirty mind came from she would have guessed it was her, the small woman that had the tendency to remind someone of a cat, now she even grinned like one. They sat at their camp in the forest on opposite sides of a small fire.
"Wh-What?" Erza said and saw her friend sit up from her half-laying position on the ground.
"Well, what do you think about bondage? Would you want to try it?" At first Erza said nothing, if this would have been any other person asking her she would beat them into the next century, but this was no other person and even if she tried she knew the other was way too fast and good to be beaten by Erza.
"I never thought about bondage…" Erza admitted and her friend raised both brows.
"Really? But you read so many dirty books! Didn't at least one say something about bondage?!" Erza shook her head.
"Shame on those books!" Shaking her head her friend mumbled into her hand, Erza watched her.
"Would you want to try it?" The red-haired asked and her friend smiled at her.
"Well… I thought about it a few times, you know? I find the idea of being helplessly bound to a bed, for example, pretty arousing. Or to imagine to be bound and unable to do something as you get teased all over your body until you just can't stand it anymore and would even beg for some cock inside you so you could finally feel what you so desire… rawr!" Erza chuckled as she saw the face her friend made, she was always openly perverted but when she got into dream-state it was somehow like she pulled you in with her words. She could tell the most dirty story and Erza would think it happened just as she told to her that moment. She envied her friend for that lively fantasy and loved to listen to her stories. She didn't know if they were true or just imaginations, there was no way to hear the difference in the stories from truth to imagination.
"I… kind of have a thing for costumes."
"You're into role-play? Tell me the dirty details Scarlet!" Erza blushed more as she thought about her cat and bunny-costume, last one she had given to Lucy. Her mind wandered as she thought about wearing that cat-costume for Jellal. Would he play the big bad wolf?
"It's nice to know you think about your desires, but would you mind sharing?" Erza got pulled out of her fantasy and looked at her friend before she looked into the fire.
"I want to wear my cat-costume for Jellal…"
"Sweet… so, would he be gentle or rough?"
"Uh… gentle I guess?" A gasp was heard from her friend and Erza leaned back, unsure if she said something wrong. She was strong and had no fear, but if she met her friend and they talked this private with each other she was always so shy and unsure.
"You didn't actually do anything with him yet?!"
"No…he has a fiancé."
"Erza, we both know that's not true. He's simply too chicken to accept that he is good enough for you!"
"You think?"
"Well, my dear friend, how about a bet then?" Erza didn't trust her friend with bets, she had the tendency to always win and in some mysterious ways always got to her original goal without Erza knowing she was manipulated until the end.
"What kind of bet?"
"Well, after we finished this mission with flying colors, as always, we'll search out Jellal and his little friends. I'll make sure you two stay undisturbed and you'll seduce him with your cat-costume… play the innocent little kitty." Erza liked the idea, but it seemed way too surreal to actually be doable.
"Erza…"
"What is your part of the bet?"
"I'll leave that part to you."
"Then… you have to wear the puppy-costume for a whole week and stay that week in a city."
"Easy."
"And you are forbidden to have sex." Erza saw the smile fall and the pout take over.
"You mean, mean Erza. But okay. The looser has to buy cake." The two nodded and shook hands.
