Warning: this is a review of basic (and not so basic) sex education for the clueless. Enjoy!
Last time on The Courtship
Botan and Koenma were interrupted with some breaking news: The Demon world is in rebellion! The issue? Demons want access to the buffet at the ningenkai. But far MORE importantly, a steamy session before Koenma went to meet with his team has both of them questioning what happened…
"So what was it?" Shizuru asked, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. "First off, your friend comes and interrupts my play time with the fox, and now you show up in the middle of the night with questions. You spirit world people."
"Well something happened tonight…"
"What do you mean something? Did you follow my advice?"
"Some of it."
"I see. Did you do it?"
"No, but…"
"No! Well why the hell not? And what are you doing here?"
"Well Shizuru, spirit world interrupted my fun with Koenma!"
Shizuru's eyebrow shot up. "Really? Well I'll be damned. Hold that thought." She picked up the phone. Botan didn't have to guess at who she was calling. "Hey princess…yeah, I was sleep too…but a certain blue haired reaper showed up with questions. It appears that she never had the talk…yeah, we'll wait." She hung up the phone. "The princess will be here in fifteen minutes."
"I don't know if she could help me-"
Shizuru laughed. "Don't let that good girl image fool you. She knows just as much about sex as me- well maybe not that much; but she can help."
They had some tea while they waited. Botan explained the situation in the makai to her. "Well I'm not surprised that Kazuma chose not go," she said. "Demons still make him uncomfortable; even though Hiei is a demon. Sometimes you forget that, you know?"
"Does that happen with Kurama?"
"It used to. But when Kurama shows his true emotions, his demon side always comes out; whether he turns into Youko or not."
"Really?"
"Yeah-"
They were interrupted by a loud knock on the door. Shizuru got up to let Keiko in.
"Hey Shizuru, Botan," Keiko eyed her with mock indignation. "Do you spirit world people ever sleep? It was late, and I was in the…middle of something."
"Well, you aren't the only one who's playtime got interrupted," Shizuru complained, raising her eyebrow at Botan.
"Don't blame me! It's not my fault!"
"Yeah, I know," Keiko reassured her. "But how come Koenma sent Ayame instead of you?"
"We were…busy."
Keiko leapt out her seat. "Did you do it?"
"Keiko!" Botan exclaimed. "I never expected to hear that from you!"
"Told you," Shizuru said.
"I'm a married woman!" She exclaimed. "I'm allowed to have a sex life!"
Botan blushed at hearing the word 'sex'.
"And you never answered my question. Did you do it or not?"
"No," Botan replied. "We were interrupted. But after they left something did happen."
"You will have to be more specific, Blue," Shizuru advised.
"Well we didn't 'do it' but I got this incredible feeling," she explained. "From down there."
"Down there? What are you, like eleven or something?" Shizuru burst out.
"Shizuru!" Keiko exclaimed. "Don't interrupt!"
"Well it was like all these sensations, and my legs were shaking, and it was just…INCREDIBLE!" Her pink eyes sparkled just thinking about it.
"You had an orgasm without even doing it? You lucky kitten!"
"I thought we weren't going to interrupt, Keiko."
"Oh, sorry! How did it happen?"
"Well, we were kissing, and then he picked me up…"
"Koenma picked you up?" Shizuru promised not to interject but this required confirmation.
"Yes," she replied dreamily. "He's very strong. He picked me up and my legs were around his waist and we were rubbing together. I started to feel these sensations down there, and then he pinned he against the wall-"
"Holy crap!" Shizuru exclaimed.
"-and he was squeezing my bottom-"
"WHAT!" Keiko shrieked. "Koenma's a hentai!"
"No, just a man. A horny, sex deprived man who had the object of his desire in front of him," Shizuru explained. "I'm sure you can relate your majesty?"
Keiko blushed. "Botan, you were saying?"
"Well, he was squeezing my bottom and was moving so fast and hard, and I could feel his…manhood…against me and then something just happened. My legs started shaking and then it just exploded! I've never felt anything like it!"
"Welcome to the wonderful world of sexual pleasure," Shizuru congratulated her. "Did Koenma come too?"
"Come?"
"Another word for saying orgasm," Keiko explained. "So, did he?"
"I think so," she replied, thinking back. "He got all stiff and yelled my name and then we sank down to the floor."
"If you can have an orgasm from bumping and grinding then I wonder what would happen if he went down on you," Shizuru remarked.
"She'd probably faint," Keiko remarked. "I almost did."
"What's this? The good girl knows of cunnilingus?" Shizuru smirked.
"Cunnilingus? What's that?" Botan asked, intrigued at how she could get more pleasure without having sex.
"Well, it's when a man uses his mouth down there," Keiko explained.
"His mouth?" Botan asked, thinking of how Koenma had kissed her. If he did that down there, there's no telling what would happen!
"What's going through that blue head of yours? You should see that look on your face."
"Well, Koenma's a good kisser, and when he kissed my breasts-"
"Yeah, that always gets me too," Shizuru replied, a touch of nostalgia in her voice. "The fox is…so good with his mouth."
"I don't doubt it," Botan commented. "He seems like he would be good with everything."
"He is," Shizuru confirmed. "And he would have a heart attack if he knew I was having this conversation."
"Probably," Keiko added. "Unlike Yusuke, who would spill it to everyone."
They all laughed.
"Shizuru?"
"Yeah, Blue? What is it?"
"Is there, something I can do…to him?"
"Yeah, you could give him head."
"What's that?" Botan asked. Evidently Keiko knew, because she turned scarlet.
"The official name is called fellatio," Shizuru explained. "And you take him in your mouth."
Botan's eyes widened. "How do you do it?"
"Botan! I can't believe you're even considering this!"
"What's the matter princess? You too good to go down on your husband?"
"I've never tried it before," Keiko replied, nervously. "And Yusuke's so big-"
"I knew it! He's probably hung like a horse, isn't he?" Shizuru wanted to know.
"Yes, and he can go, and go, and go…"
"Must be the demon in him," Botan commented. "So how do you do it, Shizuru?"
"Everyone has their own unique style," Shizuru explained. "But you can do things like licking the head, and sucking on it, or taking the whole thing in your mouth."
"I don't know if I would know how…" Botan stuttered. She was definitely intrigued, but had never even seen a naked man. She hadn't the slightest idea. She needed a visual, and she said so.
"Botan! You've been corrupted!" Keiko shrieked.
"I have a video we can watch," Shizuru said. "And you're watching too, princess."
She went upstairs and returned with a tape. She popped it in the VCR. A disclaimer came on screen. Warning: this video is intended for education and entertainment purposes only. Viewing by persons under the age of 18 is prohibited.
"I'm a little older than that," Botan chuckled.
The video was like nothing she's ever seen. The man was huge, and the women seemed to love it. She thought it might hurt, but the women seemed to love it. She saw a woman "going down" on him and she saw him go down on her. She noticed how he seemed to concentrated on one spot, a raised button of flesh not quite at the center.
"Why does he focus so much on that spot?" She asked.
"It's called the clitoris," Shizuru explained. "It is very sensitive, and almost all sexual pleasure derives from it. That's where your orgasm was centered, Botan."
"I see. Now, what was that coming out of his…you know…"
"The official name is called semen," Shizuru explained. "It's also called cum, jism, and other names I won't go into right now. It contains the sperm that can get you pregnant."
Botan gulped. Pregnant? She couldn't imagine carrying Koenma's heir.
"Don't let him release in you," Keiko advised. "If he does, you can get pregnant."
"But you have to have a lot of self control to pull out," Shizuru spoke up. "Being a virgin himself, Koenma might not be able to stop himself," she reasoned.
"So much to remember…" Botan said, her head spinning.
"Well, you might want to hold off on sex for a while," she advised. "But you can still have fun, though."
Botan thought about it. "I suppose you're right. Koenma's going to be busy with the…his duties right now," she stopped herself from mentioning the rebellion. She didn't want to worry Keiko and Koenma probably didn't want her to know.
"What's going on, Botan?" Keiko asked.
"Sorry, but I can't talk about it right now," Botan answered. She hoped Keiko wouldn't press her; she didn't want things to get awkward. She knew telling Shizuru would be OK, but Yusuke wanted Keiko to have no part in demon matters; plus she had no spirit awareness.
"Of course," Keiko replied. "I just hope Yusuke is OK."
"You know Yusuke can take care of himself," Shizuru reassured her. "And Hiei, and the fox, and Kazuma too," she admitted. "But he didn't go this time."
"Why?" Keiko asked.
"I was wondering about that myself," Botan added.
"Sorry, but I can't say. I promised I wouldn't."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Shizuru-" Botan started.
"Don't worry about it," Shizuru cut her off. "Anyway, do you have any more questions?"
"I do," Keiko spoke up. "I notice that woman swallowed his…semen. Do you have to swallow? And what does that stuff taste like?"
"Men like it when you swallow," she explained. "But don't feel obligated to. And it's…an acquired taste."
"I have a question for you Botan," Shizuru said. "Did you find his spot?"
"Yes, it's his ear," she giggled.
"Kurama's is on his neck," Shizuru said.
"Yusuke's is his belly button," Keiko said. "Please don't tell him I told you that!" Shizuru and Botan had exploded into hysterical laughter.
"Well guys," Botan said, standing up. "I have to get back to spirit world. Its morning there and Koenma will be wondering where I am. Thanks so much! This was very educational!"
"For me too," Keiko said.
Back in spirit world, it was morning. Botan hurried to her room to change and freshen up. She didn't want to be late to her meeting with Koenma.
"Good morning Lord Koenma," she greeted.
"Good morning Botan," Koenma replied. "Do you mind if we reschedule our meeting for this afternoon? That will give you time to meet with the other reapers and take care of anything else. Shall we say one o'clock?"
"Yes sir." She didn't mind at all. She did want to meet with the reapers and she could take a nap as well.
She turned to leave. As Koenma watched her go, he couldn't help staring at her delicious derriere, and how he had gripped and caressed it last night when he reached his…climax? That's what he needed to find out.
"Koenma, you wished to see me?" Kurama was standing before him.
"Yes, I do."
"I'm afraid that I don't have anything to report as of yet."
"I didn't summon you here for that reason. Please join me in my private study." Kurama followed him into the study and closed the door firmly behind him. If Koenma hadn't called him back about the situation in the makai, then what was it? Surely he didn't have questions about…that? But then again, he had no experience in that area, so it was possible…
"Kurama?" Koenma was eyeing him pensively.
"I apologize, Koenma, you were saying something?"
"Yes. Before we go further, I must be sure that I have your absolute discretion."
"Of course."
"Well last night when I was brought the news about the makai; Botan and I were…in the middle of something."
Aha! he thought. So Hiei was right. Wouldn't he be glad to know that. "I see. Would you mind sharing with me?" Kurama knew he was taking a risk, but he preferred specifics.
"Well, we were about to…" he trailed off. He hadn't imagined that it would be this hard.
"Have sex?" Kurama prompted.
"Yes," Koenma confirmed.
"You said 'about to'? What do you mean?"
"Well, I was undressing her, and kissing her…breasts…and…I was about to…"
"About to what?"
"I don't exactly know," Koenma explained. He took a deep breath. Might as well just come out and say it, he thought. "I was about to remove her underwear but I hadn't the slightest idea as what to do next," he finished.
Kurama chuckled inwardly. He remembered have a similar conversation with Yusuke before his wedding night; but Yusuke had said something like, 'Ok fox, I'm about to be married and I've never had sex before and don't want to embarrass myself. So gimme some pointers.'
"Do you have a specific question?"
"Well, I know where to put it," Koenma said. "But is there something else I can do before I…actually do it?"
"I do not wish to make you uncomfortable," Kurama spoke up. "But I have some questions before I make recommendations."
"Okay," Koenma said.
"First, were you aroused?"
"Of course,' Koenma replied. "Very much so."
"Second, were you able to find release?"
"Yes…I think."
"You think?"
"Well, after my servants left we started up again…and I think we both had an…" he paused, trying to remember the right word.
"Orgasm?" Kurama offered.
"Yes," Koenma replied.
"I have a very specific question, Koenma. It is personal and I don't want you to get offended."
"Yes?"
"You said that you both had an orgasm, but didn't have sex. Can you tell me how this happened?"
"Well, we were kissing…and I picked her up and put her…against the wall…" Kurama nearly fell out of his chair. So the prince was a horny little monarch eh? "And I was …pressing against her and she was pressing back, and we were moving fast…and hard and then she…" he stopped short of describing Botan's orgasm.
"You don't have to explain. But I will say this: you can tell if a woman has an orgasm by her body movements. Her body, especially her legs, thighs and her…" he paused to search for a term that wouldn't sound so crass to the deity's ears.
"Her?" Koenma prompted.
"Womanhood," Kurama decided on. "The muscles seem to take on a mind of their own and move independently of her control."
"I see." Koenma replied. Kurama was watching him intently. He could tell by his expression that Botan had indeed had an orgasm.
"And you are certain that you had an orgasm?"
"Yes, well I was…hard and then I released and I wasn't anymore…and the feeling was…intense."
"Well, they can get more intense as time goes on with the proper experience and techniques," Kurama stated.
Koenma raised an eyebrow. "Techniques?"
"Yes. You said that you were interested in pleasuring her more?"
"Yes."
"Well, there is mound of sensitive flesh between a woman's legs called the clitoris," Kurama said. "It is the source of an orgasm for a woman. If you stimulate it with your hands or mouth you can bring her intense pleasure and orgasm," Kurama knew he had to be frank with Koenma.
"Your mouth?" This is intriguing, Koenma thought.
"Yes. It is called cunnilingus, and most women enjoy it very much," Kurama paused, remembering Shizuru's reaction to the first time he went down on her.
"H-how would I do that?"
"Well, you said you were kissing her?"
"Yes."
"Well, apply the same principle of kissing to her clitoris," Kurama recommended. "But be very tender. Let her dictate the intensity, or speed, any other requests."
"How will I know when I find it?" Koenma asked.
"Oh, you will definitely know. The clitoris is very sensitive," Kurama assured him.
"I see. This…pleasuring with the mouth…she could do it to me as well?"
Kurama was intrigued that he would ask such a question. "Yes it's called fellatio," he explained. "And she takes your manhood in her mouth and licks or sucks on it. But you have to be very careful."
"Careful?"
"Yes. First off, not all women are willing. Some are shy about performing such an act. Second, if she does, then you must not force her to take too much of you in her mouth at one time. And last and most important, don't release into her mouth unless she requests it."
Koenma furrowed his eyebrow.
"It is an acquired taste," Kurama explained. "And many women do not feel comfortable swallowing."
Koenma's eyes got wide. "Perhaps I will hold off on…that for now."
"Certainly. Do you have any more questions?"
"Yes, I was wondering about…positions…when we do have…sex."
"There are many positions. I have a book that you might find useful." He couldn't imagine that Koenma would accept such a thing, but his answer surprised him.
"I would like to see it."
"Certainly. I have a question for you."
"Yes?"
"I am sure you are aware that releasing in Botan may result in her becoming pregnant. Are you able to guard against such an event until you see fit to have children?"
"Yes." Koenma didn't elaborate.
"I see. Well, is there anything else I can do for you, Koenma?"
"No, but I should like that book as soon as possible."
"Of course."
"Thank you Kurama. And please remember your promise of discretion."
"Certainly."
Well there you have it! It's book vs. video. Who was more informed? Now that each of them has had 'the talk' what will happen next? And what about the rebellion? Find out as The Courtship progresses!
Thanks for the reviews! Keep it up!
