A/N: Long time, no see! Work has gotten the best of me, and it tires me endlessly. I will try to make updates more regularly, but I make no promises.

New Routines
This morning, Tamsin woke up before Bo, and so she decided to pepper the other woman with kisses to wake her. She left small kisses all along her neck and face, watching the succubus slowly gain consciousness. Still, she continued her assault, waiting for the inevitable moment where the brunette would wrap her arms around her and connect their lips in a loving kiss.
However, what Tamsin hoped for did not coincide with what she received, and she was promptly met by a soft hand tangling itself in her facial hair and pushing her face away. The blonde's eyebrows furrowed in confusion as she stared at her succubus.
"No," Bo mumbled, keeping the blonde an arm's length away.
"What did I do?" Tamsin asked, her voice painted with the tiniest bit of hurt.
"Your face is too hairy now. I'm not dating a wolf," Bo continued mumbling in a sleepy voice.
"But you dated one."
"Yeah, and I tolerated that beard. I would've shaved it off in his sleep if there was a chance he wouldn't act like a hurt puppy."
Tamsin frowned. "But I want kisses."
"No kisses until you shave that thing off," Bo said with finality, rolling onto her stomach to continue sleeping.
After grumbling for a while, Tamsin left the warmth of their bed, pulling on her boxer briefs, shorts, and a new t-shirt since Bo had stolen hers after their night of passion. Once in the vicinity of the bathroom, she ran her fingers through the hair that had accumulated on her face. It was true what Bo had said. Her face was too hairy now, and she closely resembled an unruly Dyson. Speaking of whom, she quickly dialed his phone number. On the fifth ring, the wolf picked up.
"What do you want, Tamsin? I was in the middle of.. something." In the background, several giggles could be heard.
"Look, boy, I need some help. Bo won't kiss me until I shave my beard off, and I have no idea how to properly get rid of this thing."
"That's it? That's all you called me about? I'm about to be involved in a threesome with two nymphs, and you call me because of your facial hair?"
"This is an emergency, Dyson. You've kissed Bo! You know what I'm missing out on."
"But.. Nymphs, Tamsin. You know what I'd be missing out on."
"Frankly, I couldn't care less. You can stick your hotdog in a nymph at any point. I would be without kisses from the woman I love for an indeterminate amount of time."
"If I do this, you have to put me on your tab for a night. Got it?"
Tamsin thought about having to pay for all that alcohol, but then she thought about being unable to show Bo affection through kissing. She groaned, "Fine."
"Great!" Dyson replied, and the valkyrie could practically feel his happy-go-lucky wolf grin forming. "I'll be over in a bit. The ladies said they'd wait 30 minutes so.. we'll have to make this quick."
"Yeah, yeah." Tamsin ended the call and waited for the wolf to show up.
5 minutes later.
Dyson breezed into the bathroom, staring at Tamsin who was seated on a short stool. He threw down the bag he brought, kneeling down to unzip it and rifle through it.
"What the hell is in that bag?" Tamsin asked, half-horrified and half-fascinated.
"It's my shaving supplies." Dyson brought out various objects and started describing them. "See, this is the trimmer I use to line up the hair around my mouth.. And this is the blade I use to shape my beard.. Oh, and this is a bit of beard cologne to keep things smelling fresh.. And can't forget the comb I use to brush my beard every morning.."
Tamsin held up her hand to indicate for him to stop speaking. "You are a woman in wolves' clothing. Just get to the part where you hack off this thing on my face."
"Right, right." The wolf picked up a trimmer, plugging it in before he went to work on Tamsin's face. "We're just trimming it down so we can get a razor to make your face extra smooth.."
Tamsin almost nodded in understanding when she realized Dyson still had the trimmer on her face.
Every so often, the wolf would stop trimming her beard and check his phone. It took Tamsin yelling at him for him to continue. After getting halfway through trimming down her beard, he stopped completely and turned off the trimmer.
"What are you doing, Dyson? You're not even done!"
Dyson showed her his phone screen which revealed two nymphs making out on his bed. "Look, Tamsin, LOOK AT THIS. Just trim your beard down yourself, throw some cream on it, and shave it off. I gotta go." With that, he ran out the bathroom, using his wolf speed to get back to his place that much faster.
Tamsin sat in the bathroom, alone again and completely baffled. Now what the hell am I supposed to do? Tamsin sighed, scrolling through the short list of contacts in her phone. She couldn't call Kenzi because the small human was having an "alone day" with Hale. The next best thing the valkyrie had was the human doctor. Without giving it much thought, she called Lauren. After the second ring, the doctor picked up.
"Hello?"
"Hey, doc, I need your help."
"Is Bo okay?" came the automatic response.
"She's in perfect condition. I, personally, need help."
"With what?"
"I need help shaving this beard off because Bo won't kiss me otherwise.."
For a moment, there was silence, and finally, to Tamsin's relief, an answer.
"Well, I suppose I could test out something I've made while simultaneously helping you.."
"Whatever that means, I'll take it. Can you get here soon?"
"Sure. See you in a bit."
15 minutes later.
Much like Dyson, Lauren came sweeping into the bathroom with a bag in her hand. She set it down on the ground, eyeing up Tamsin's beard that was half-unruly and half-trimmed. Tamsin watched as she pulled on latex gloves, listening to the snap as they settled on her hands.
"So, what do you plan on doing, doc?"
"Just a little science experiment," Lauren answered absentmindedly as she poured together some chemicals.
"And it'll take off the hair on my face?"
"It should.." came the response in the same absentminded tone of voice.
"Alright then, lay it on me."
"First, I'm gonna rub this here.." Lauren started explaining in a vague manner as she did her work. "And then, this'll go on top of that.."
Tamsin waited patiently, only intrigued when Lauren handed her a beaker full of a clear liquid.
"Okay, so this is just in case.. something.. happens after I put this last thing on your face. If anything should happen that's out of the ordinary, just throw it on your face."
"Uh.. Okay," Tamsin agreed.
"Okay then, here we go!" Lauren rubbed the last substance on her face, waiting in anticipation.
A few seconds later, the side of Tamsin's face erupted into flames, and with the use of her valkyrie reflexes, she splashed the liquid onto her face just as soon as it started. Even with her speed, half of her beard was almost singed to the roots, and a bit of the hair that flopped onto her forehead was singed. Afterwards, her eyes widened in horror as she stared at the human doctor who was wearing a similar expression.
Lauren spoke first. "I.. Well, uhm.. That was.. That was quite unexpected."
"Get out," Tamsin growled.
"But, I mean if I just adjusted the quantities and let it rest for 30 seconds longer—"
"Out," Tamsin demanded, pointing towards the door.
Lauren looked embarrassed as she backed out of the bathroom without her things, too afraid to gather them up. "I'm really sorry, Tamsin, I thought I got down the formula.."
Tamsin didn't even reply, and the doctor bowed her head, exiting the room. The valkyrie rested her face in her hands in frustration, and without her notice, a certain human entered the bathroom.
"Tammy-boy, why does it smell like burnt hair in here?" Kenzi asked, scrunching her nose in disgust.
As an answer, Tamsin lifted up her face, looking up at the woman who raised her.
"Oh. Okay. Wow. What happened, Tam-Tam?" Kenzi asked, her eyes widening. She walked over to the valkyrie, crouching down onto her heels so she was near eye-level with the blonde.
Tamsin averted her gaze like an embarrassed child, mumbling. "Bo wouldn't kiss me with this beard so I thought I'd ask Dyson to help me shave it off since you were spending time with Hale. He got half-way through trimming it before he ditched me to go have a threesome with nymphs.. So I called Lauren and she set half my face and some of my hair on fire."
Kenzi raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Alrighty, then. One, if you need me, just call. No man is gonna get between you and me. I mean, you're a guy now so that's weird to say.. But you know what I mean."
"What am I gonna do? I have half of a beard that's trimmed and half of it is nearly singed off."
"Lucky for you, Mama Kenz knows how to cut hair and shave beards," Kenzi replied enthusiastically, lifting up the trimmer that was sitting on the ground. She turned it on, looking at the valkyrie for permission.
Tamsin sighed in defeat. "Do your worst."
::::
Half an hour later, Tamsin had a perfectly smooth face, and as a bonus, she got a haircut. The sides and back of her hair had been cut shorter while the top was left a bit longer than the rest. As a result of Kenzi's make-over, she looked very refined.
After examining herself in the mirror, Tamsin turned around, picking up Kenzi and hugging her. She swung the small human in a circle. "Thanks, momz."
Kenzi laughed, ruffling the golden hair atop the valkyrie's head. "No problem. Just don't let either of those two dummies get near that chiseled face of yours."
"Never again," Tamsin said definitively, setting her down on the ground once more.
The petite woman nudged her towards the door. "Now, go get our succubus. I didn't do all that work for nothin'."
"Of course not. Thanks again." Tamsin grinned, pecking her "mom" on the cheek as she ran out the bathroom towards her and Bo's bedroom.
Kenzi shook her head, smiling as she watched Tamsin go.
As soon as Tamsin entered the bedroom, she launched herself onto the bed, waking up the slumbering succubus. Quickly, her hands went to work, stripping Bo of her shirt as she began planting soft kisses all along her breasts. She heard a sigh of pleasure as hands tangled themselves in her freshly-cut hair.
Bo opened her eyes, feeling the change in hairstyle. She looked down, staring at Tamsin's complete make-over. "I didn't know shaving also meant getting a haircut."
"Long story," Tamsin mumbled against her chest, continuing to place kisses wherever she could. The only thing that stopped her was Bo's hands pulling her up so they could kiss each other on the lips.
After a few moments of their lips melding together perfectly, Bo pulled away, slightly out of breath. "Much better. But you know, I would've kissed you either way."
Tamsin paused, having been in the middle of kissing the soft line of Bo's jaw. She looked up, disbelief evident on her face. "Really?"
"Really."
"Really, really?"
Bo rolled her eyes. "Yes. Just because you have facial hair doesn't mean I won't kiss your handsome face. As if I could actually go a day without kissing you at least once."
Tamsin almost pulled away, grumpy at the fact that she went through so much just to please her girlfriend. However, she realized that it didn't matter. And it didn't matter because there was currently a naked succubus running her hands all over her body, making her forget every bit of frustration she had. The valkyrie mumbled a 'whatever' to herself, kissing and licking down Bo's throat and slowly making her way down her chest.
"This might be weird, but your smooth face feels amazing against me.."
"Tell me what it feels like against the inside of your thighs.." Tamsin murmured, spreading Bo's legs wide as she ventured lower.
