Po had ran up the thousand steps, not wanting to be intersected by anyone else who would happen to be walking up or down. His armful of what-not he had with him looked suspicious, and Po couldn't bare to answer questions.

G. What's that Po?
P. Oh nothing important.
G. What is it though? (Proceeds to look)
P. Nothing I must be going!

It's that situation Po was hoping to avoid. He shook his head at the thought of such a risky encounter.
Po was in stealth mode. He placed the large bags he had on the ground, resting them on a cushion of soft snow that would protect anything breakable from the granite steps.

He opened the palace gate slowly, just enough to see inside,

Alright, the coast is clear!

Po was just wrapping his digits around the handle's of his bags, when he pulled himself back, closing the gate- all but a small and discrete crack remained to gaze through.

The panda pushed his eye up against this gap, watching as the door to the palace opened up quickly, being slammed behind her as she walked briskly away.
Without question the hall of heroes had received a brief gust of cold air as that door became ajar, and then closed tightly again.

Her paws left delicate prints in the snow. Surprisingly small as well. Tigress was distracted, or at least had a lot on her mind, because she was completely unaware of her surroundings. On any normal day she'd see the gate open. Sensing the panda behind it, and playing a little cat and mouse with him as she did silly things in the courtyard to get his attention.

Such as dropping something intentionally, and then bending over to pick it up. Slowly.
Or readjusting her chest wrappings, moving her tail flauntingly, things to get Po's attention and make him squirm.

But not today. Tigress continued her extremely brisk walk, seeing that she was headed for the group barracks, Po let out a sigh of relief.

"At least I'll have some privacy in the house for a while."

As the tiger master closed the door behind her, Po in unison opened the gate. With bags in tow, he scampered over to his residence, stopping to playfully write something in the snow.

Po continued then into the house, closing the door lightly behind him as he placed the bags on the floor near the kitchen counter.

The interior of the house was small, nothing particularly special- but it didn't have to be.
It was more then what the group barracks had to offer.

Upon opening the door, there was a tiled area to prevent any rain or snow from deteriorating the bamboo floors that were in the rest of the house.
There's a common room, with a small writing desk, chairs, and a sofa, conveniently named the love seat.
The front wall was adorned with a small kitchen, just big enough for Po to putter around in.
At the back of the house were two bedrooms, they could be connected easily- and Po would be glad to do this in the future. In fact hopefully tomorrow.

Tomorrow was the day before the winter Festival after all, and tomorrow Po could finally give up his foolish avoidance act and propose mate-ship to Tigress.

I wonder why they call it proposing?

Po was thinking as he laid out his supplies, first drawing some water that would keep the center piece alive.
Covering the table with a golden cloth, Po placed the center piece gently on the tables surface. Then laying out the place mats, flatware, stemware, and glassware.

Of coarse, folding two napkins ever so delicately into the shape of a swan.
It took Po at least a half hour to fold them correctly, cursing each time he made an error.
Still thinking to himself as he worked.

Why would it be proposing? It's not really a proposition, especially since when you propose, you should already know the answer.

Po knew the answer he would get, and of the two choices, it was the larger, and more positive word.
He completed folding the napkins, placing them in the center of each plate.

"Wow, this table looks pretty good, great job Po."
Said Po to himself, the table did look good, not extravagantly overwhelming, but humbly inviting.

WITH TIGRESS

She must have stood outside of Viper's door for at least ten minutes, because in her stillness, the suns position had changed, light now only refracting off her chest rather then glaring in her eyes and gracing her muzzle.

Rather then Tigress knocking or entering under her own power, Viper saw the shadow of a certain master through the waxy paper walls.
She opened the door.

"Tigress? What are you doing?"
She was surprised to see that Viper opened the door, because our favorite kung fu warrior was struggling to open it herself.

"I was just... I.. Need your help. With womanly things."

Tigress whispered that word as if it were poisonous, as if it weakened her in some way.

Viper looked on, feeling oddly amazed that Tigress would ask for her help.
Just coming to the door must have been difficult for her.

Viper realized something.

"Does this have something to do with that time I caught you dancing in the snow?"

Tigress held out her paw to Viper in a suppressive manor, ordering her to back up and quiet down.

Tigress closed the door behind her, and shushed her friend.

"You're talking so loud! Someone could here you!"
Said Tigress in a true whisper. Looking nervous and paranoid.

Viper rolled her eyes.

"No ones in here except for us Tigress, calm down."

The snake looked now at Tigress' left paw. She was clutching a group of papers.
This peaked Viper's interest.

"So... What do you need from me that's... Womanly?"

Viper snickered lightly, in complete disarray from the phrase she just spoke.

Tigress wordlessly handed Viper the diagrams she held in her paw, placing them on the floor.
She said nothing, but her gaze said: look at this.

Viper's eyes grew wide, and she couldn't help but smile at the ludicrous images placed before her.
Sexual positions and actions, diagrams...

"Why do you have this?"
Said Viper, now looking like she was split down the middle of disgusted and curious. She never stopped gawking at them while Tigress spoke.

"I wanted to.."

"YOU wanted to try this? With Po?"
Tigress needn't finish her statement, Viper had it figured out now.
Holy shit what's in Tigress' head?

"I need your help."
Said Tigress shyly, avoiding any words that pertained to sex.

"With what? I'm not having sex with..."

"You don't have to have sex with anyone. I just need advice."
Now it was Tigress who had figured out Viper.

Gods I hope she'll help me.
Tigress was all bunched up inside, unsure what to feel.

"What..."
Viper swallowed hard.
"What do you need help with... Specifically?"

I can't believe I'm doing this.
Thought Viper. Who was fully aware Tigress was about as sexually active as a rock.

"This one first."
Tigress placed her claw on a certain diagram.
She laid down then, sprawling out on the floor and kicking her legs up, knowing she was going to get the advice she wanted.

"That looks a little painful..."
Viper tilted her head to the left, trying to picture how on earth even a snake could do that.

"I think I could do it."
Said Tigress, sounding shy and confident all in one.

"Don't... Don't you have too many teeth? And your teeth are sharp right?"

Tigress nodded her head.
"I'd say stay away from that one..."
Viper pushed it aside.

"What about this one, this one Po would have to do though... Do you think he could?"

Oh the humanity! What have I gotten myself into.
Viper felt very uncomfortable.

Tigress was super nervous and embarrassed she had to say these things to Viper, but she didn't know.

"I think Po could do that. Panda's are bears, and I wouldn't expect a bear to be too small."

Viper was getting into it now... Really getting ideas of her own, maybe she could use herself. Not today, though.

~30 minutes later~ (deja vu?)

"OH GODS TIGRESS! That would be perfect! Just the picture gets me going!"

Tigress nodded her head and bit her lip hard, trying to hold down a moan.

"I loooooove this one."

"Gods Tigress you're an absolute maniac!"

Viper shuffled through more of the diagrams, laying them out neatly.

The room was a playground of sexuality, it smelt of new experiences and excited females.

On the floor, lay a wide variety of his and hers actions and positions, they were in a specific order, too.

"Tigress if you can get him past this one-"

Viper pointed with her tail to the third diagram

"Then anything is possible from there out."

Tigress walked out of Viper's room looking like a hot mess. The top button of her vest had not been undone, but rather pooped open on its own.

She was beginning to walk into her old room,
Maybe in here I could find something to wear that would really wow him.
Get him-
in the mood.

Po walked into the barracks hallway now, smelling clean and looking good. He had a confident glow, the same one he had whenever he and Tigress were alone.

Oh gods.. I smell like...

"Hi Ti, what's up?"
Po walked up to her slowly, carrying something behind his back.

"Umm Po, I'm ok. What do you need?"

Tigress couldn't help but picture Po in various positions wearing various amounts of clothing.
The smell increased greatly.

"Remember? I said I'd come to get you and now's the time."

Po pulled a rose from behind his back, holding it up to Tigress' face. She smelt it, as many do when presented with a flower.

"It's lovely Po, but, what's it for?"

"Our date. I told you I needed you for something, so I put together a little dinner for us, and just us."

He cooked me dinner? A private dinner date for just us...
Tigress was speechless. Po had done things for her before, but this was perfect timing.

"Thank you Po."
Tigress stepped forward from her old rooms doorway, hugging Po intensely.

Po coughed nearly, seeming to choke on the air.
His eyelids grew heavy, and his pants grew tight.

"What's that smell..."
It wasn't really a question, or at least wasn't in the tone of one.

Tigress panicked.
"What smell?" She said, still hugging Po
The hug was tight to say the least, so Tigress could feel some light prodding going on.
She gasped lightly.
Po drowned his muzzle in Tigress' neck fur, inhaling her womanly scent deeply, escorting the aroma to the core of his being- while certain extremities of his body seemed to prepare for war.

Tigress threw her head back in bliss, this was so unexpected and so marvelous.

Po had just as little sexual experience as she did, and with these new feelings budding up inside him- he lost all control, kissing Tigress' neck and chest wildly.

Mind you the top button of her vest was undone, so Po had no difficulty caressing her soft white chest fur.
He was the first person to ever touch her there.
The sex hadn't even begun, nor had the date, and these two amateurs were all worked up already.

"So I guess you wanted to skip straight to desert?"
A cheesy line Tigress used, that would turn off most people, get her laughter at too. But Po was a cheesy guy, and he ate this up.

"Do you still want to have dinner?"
Said Po, feeling ashamed in himself for advancing so quickly, but then again, he hadn't stopped touching her yet.

His paws were again going up and down Tigress back, this time reaching their destination, and squeezing her firm ass.

She threw her head back again, forcing her body closer to Po's.
her breath was sharp and hot, Tigress' chest rising and falling at strange intervals.

She looked at him, massaging his chest with her paws as felines do, speaking:

"Let's wait until after dinner..."

Po kissed her lightly on the lips, nodding, unsure what he was agreeing to exactly.

Tigress backed away, walking into her room- closing the door, never losing eye contact with Po.

AN

THIS ROOM IS REALLY FRIGGIN' STEAMY RIGHT GUYS?
