Vitamin CitrinneNSFW

The Divine Dragon Alear lightly rapped on the door to Citrinne's room, leaning her head in. "Hey, Citrinne. Are you available? Would it be alright if I ran something by you?"

Citrinne looked up from her mental exercises - a sequence of spellcasting that stopped just short of loosing the arcane force. She crushed a ball of lightning in her hand, letting it dissipate harmlessly. "Of course, Divine One." She turned toward the Divine Dragon, stretching her arms over her head. "What can I do for you?"

"It's, ah..." Alear closed the door behind her and sat down on the bed opposite Citrinne, folding her hands in her lap. "It's... about Lapis."

Lapis, huh? Citrinne thought, crossing her arms. "I'll do anything for Lapis. What do you need?

Alear hunted for words, chewing her lip. "The thing is... she's been too reserved in battle. Like she's afraid to get close to her enemies. Or even her allies. Like... she's afraid to intrude on them."

"I've seen what you mean," Citrinne said, nodding gravely. "Her confidence is pretty low."

Alear nodded agreement. "And I know she can do better. So I want to help her build that confidence."

"Of course."

Silence. Alear was fidgeting with her hands in her lap, clearly struggling to communicate what her plan was. "Ah... I think the way to get her comfortable with... that kind of thing... is practice. But- erm, I think there's a less violent, more, erm. Satisfying means of practicing getting close with people. Very close. Very... very close. About as close as you can get to another person."

"I know exactly what you're talking about," Citrinne assured Alear, patting the Divine Dragon's knee.

Alear laughed awkwardly. "It feels pretty strange asking one of my soldiers to do this. Like, what kind of commander gives that as an order? Even as a friend, looking out for another friend, it's..."

Shaking her head, Citrinne cut in with "Lapis would understand. I think she knows she'd grow from it. It'd make her a better fighter and a better person. I mean, we all need to indulge now and then..." She winked. "Even Lapis knows she's too repressed, I think."

"So... she's never... you know," Alear gestured with her arms in a wide circle around her middle, like she was hugging a lover.

Citrinne nodded confirmation. Poor Divine One, so sexually repressed herself... "That's right. But I do think she can do it. Not only that, but I think it's a great idea."

"Good, good," Alear mused, humming to herself. "I think it would be good for her to get comfortable using her strength without a weapon in her hands."

Whoah. But she has some kinky fantasies, Citrinne noted internally. At least, her mind was drifting straight to being pinned to the wall by Lapis's muscular arms... picked up and held in a princess carry... or slung across Lapis's shoulders like a sack of potatoes... Her heartbeat quickened. "Mmmh... Yeah... She is so strong, too..."

"We'll need a relatively quiet place off the Somniel and a few willing, erm..." Alear groped for the word. "... partners."

Citrinne put a hand to her chin in thought. My family's guest house, perhaps? "... Right. I think I have the perfect place to do it, actually, if we can get to Brodia." She smiled. "And as for partners? You can count me in."

Alear's eyebrows shot up. "Really? Citrinne, I didn't take you for... well..." Her face reddened. "One of those types."

She can't even say the word lesbian? This dragon is so adorable. Smiling, Citrinne nodded. "Yeah. I am, though. Well- sort of. I mean Lapis is the first girl to make me feel that way, but that doesn't mean there aren't other girls who give me the flutters to look at them."

"Huh..." Alear said, eyebrows still raised. She seemed almost... impressed. Maybe even interested? "Wow. And you're so casual about it, too..."

Citrinne's heart thumped. "Yeah, well, it's not a big deal, really. I mean-" She batted her eyelashes, emboldened. "If- If you were interested sometime, maybe..."

"I appreciate it," Alear said, laughing. Her cheeks were pink. "It's sweet of you, but I mean, Lapis is going to get you first. So we... probably won't get the chance."

"Right, right," Citrinne said, happy at least that Alear thought she had a good shot with Lapis. "You really think Lapis will like me that much, huh?"

"I think it'll probably take some time for her to warm up to the idea, but I know she'll get there. I mean... look at you. I can hardly resist myself. You're just... perfect."

As the woman across from her slowly licked her lips, Citrinne couldn't believe how highly the Divine Dragon thought of her. Not only does she think Lapis is going to put a ring on it, she's hitting on me? I take it back, she's hardly repressed at all! "I would probably love if you did give in. It seems like you have quite the tongue, you know."

"Oh, erm..." Clearing her throat and looking away, rocking back and forth, Alear was the picture of awkwardness. "It's certainly- certainly learned a thing or two with so many of you offering me all kinds of tastes on the Somniel now... E-erm... I guess I'm flattered, and... If Lapis doesn't go for you, then, um... if you would really enjoy it..."

Wow. She's actually a slut? That's amazing. I have so much more respect for her now. "I'd really enjoy it," Citrinne assured her with a wink. "I'll take you up on that later."

Alear cleared her throat, hastily changing the subject. "Ahem... Well... I'm sure you'll be missed."

Missed? Citrinne thought. Ohhh... She thinks I'm the type to get completely carried away with a girlfriend. She giggled to herself, leaning back in her desk chair. ... I can't say she's wrong. If Lapis told me she loved me I probably could think about nothing else, not even my training to become stronger. "Ah, Alcryst feels that way a lot, too," Citrinne said, lost in memory. "Always fretting about how some guy or girl is going to scoop me off my feet and he'll just never see me again. First of all, we're just cousins, you don't need to freak out so much about me being taken off the market. And I'm sure he'll be able to see me again just fine, especially if it's Lapis of all people I end up with. And the same goes for you, too."

"Right, yeah." Alear chuckled, uncomfortably fidgeting with her hands. She met Citrinne's eyes. "Er, you mentioned Prince Alcryst... Are you sure he'll be okay with all of this? For your sake and for Lapis's..."

Laughter burst out of Citrinne. "Okay with it? I'm pretty sure it'd be his fantasy. If anything, I think he'll be jealous."

"Jealous?" Alear's eyebrows shot up even further than before. "Then he's also... Oh. Of course... I can't believe I didn't see it before. Maybe I should let him watch, then..."

"Best if he finds out after the deed is done," Citrinne said, grinning and patting Alear's shoulder. "We wouldn't want him trying to get involved while we're getting Lapis's confidence up, now would we? That's for later."

"Oh, yes, right," Alear said, getting to her feet to leave. "You're so thoughtful, Citrinne. You're one of a kind. I think Lapis will love you. Thanks."

Citrinne beamed, returning to her exercises. I can't wait...

Lapis hesitated outside the closed door to the dining room. Citrinne waited inside, she knew, ready to be eaten alive. Lapis turned back to Alear, huge pink eyes pleading.

"Divine One? Shouldn't it be her and not me?" She squeezed her arm, her gaze dropping to the floor. "She's a noble, and I'm just-- a commoner."

Alear placed her hands on Lapis's shoulders encouragingly. "She wants this. She wants this so much. She practically begged me to give you to her."

"I know, but-"

A finger on her lips gently silenced Lapis's protests. "Shhh. Just go in there and give her the night of her li- Er..." Alear pulled back, thinking better of what she was about to say. "Make her dreams come true, I mean. You want to make her happy, right? Nothing would make her happier than this. To be with you forever..."

"To be with me forever..." Lapis repeated, looking far away. Her eyes sparkled, resolve building in them. "Divine One, you're... very good at convincing me it's okay for me to want this."

Alear slapped Lapis on the back encouragingly. "I have a lot of practice, uh..." She trailed off, staring into the distance. "... rationalizing this."

Lapis turned herself toward the closed door to the room. "... Okay. This is just like any other holiday feast. I go in there and swallow up my best friend and my belly will do the rest."

"Right."

Hesitation...

Placing a hand on the door, Lapis sucked in a breath and finally nodded her head. "I'll be out after dinner."

"Good," Alear said, standing back with her arms folded. "I'll look forward to seeing you after~"

Without further word, Lapis opened the door, ready to face her destiny. Or... rather, the girl whose destiny she was about to become...

Citrinne lay on the bed, surrounded by scattered rose petals. Her cheek was supported by her hand, freshly manicured in beautiful matte silver. Her face was a warm pink, both from the pretty makeup she wore and from the hot blush visible in her ears. Her lips wore a soft, inviting apricot color, and were curved into a flirty smile. Her slim bust was accentuated by delicate pink lace lingerie that seemed like it would fall apart with the slightest disturbance. Her flat stomach was exposed, framed by the lacy pink panties that matched with the top and cradled her chubby rump. Her thighs looked marshmallow-soft, and her legs were overlaid atop one another as they tapered down to her feet, her equally silvery toes pointed straight at the door.

"So... I hear you need a little bit of a confidence booster, huh?" Citrinne asked. She reached forward with her free hand, beckoning. "I'm all yours, baby..."

Lapis couldn't answer, her jaw on the floor. She'd had a crush on Citrinne for some time, but seeing her like this was...

"You're- You're a work of art, Citrinne," Lapis mumbled. She swallowed hard. "And- You're my best friend, I- I can't do this to you... Is this really what you want?"

Citrinne's disappointment was obvious. "... It is, yeah. I want this more than anything, but... I don't want to ruin our friendship, so... I only want this if you want it."

"But that's what I'm afraid of. Won't me doing this ruin our friendship?" Lapis moved around the bed, leaning closer toward Citrinne. "Citrinne... I do want you, I can't deny it, I can feel it deep in my belly, But I don't want to lose you."

"You're not going to lose me," Citrinne breathed, drawing Lapis's face in close with one hand and beaming at her. "We're going to be closer than we've ever been. And, who knows... if you, um, if you want me, if you- if you like me, you can have me for more than just tonight. You can have me- um, forever. Buuut I'm getting ahead of myself... eheh..."

Nothing would make her happier than this. To be with you forever.

"Wow," Lapis murmured, lost for words. Nothing about her country upbringing had prepared her for this - her best friend and secret crush, laid out on the bed like a gourmet meal on a serving table, desperate to be eaten. The noblewoman might as well have been a different species. Why hadn't she heard anything about this in any of her etiquette guides? And why did she want it so badly? Her stomach begged her to have a taste. "I- I want you forever. Citrinne... Can I have you forever?"

"You can," Citrinne said, voice low and silky. "But first... you have to come and take me. I'm ready, Lapis."

Feeling self-conscious, Lapis put out the lights in the room. Citrinne would surely change her mind when she noticed her awkwardly trying to fit her in and swallow. "I, ah... would you c-close your eyes? Is it okay if-"

Citrinne laughed softly. "Of course. I'll do what makes you comfortable. I'm going to be exploring all of your body soon... I'm in no rush."

She'll be swimming through every one of your veins, Alear had assured her. It seemed Citrinne felt the same way.

Lapis knelt, her eyes quickly adjusting to the darkness. Citrinne's pretty pale pink feet were easy to find near the edge of the bed in the limited light coming in from outside. She lifted them off the mattress.

Just like any other holiday feast, she reminded herself. Just gotta... put the food in my mouth and start swallowing.

She slipped Citrinne's toes between her lips, suckling softly on them. They tasted like her buttery-sweet lotion with just a hint of tangy citrus from her lemon soap - like eating a lemon bar, Lapis decided. Just have to think of her as one giant lemon bar, like the kind I used to make when the lemon trees were fruiting...

"Aahh..." Citrinne moaned in delight, squirming on the bed. "Did Alcryst tell you that I like having my toes sucked? Hmph, and here I thought I gave him that information in confidence... not that I mind, if you're using it for good... Keep it up, please..."

Lapis had feared that the second she took any part of Citrinne into her mouth, Citrinne would reject her, tell her she was overstepping, that she had violated their friendship after all. But here Citrinne was, moaning with pleasure and asking for more... Indeed, she liked this. And she knew it. Even Alcryst knew it. How long has Citrinne been fantasizing about this? she wondered as she slurped more of Citrinne's bare feet into her mouth. She even told her cousin about it... Incredible... I guess this really has been a long-time dream for her...

"Ooh, that's a new technique. Not used to that one, I'll confess..." Citrinne said sheepishly as her toes slipped past Lapis's tongue and into her throat. "Not that I mind... having your tongue on my soles feels... kinda nice, actually... You're so gentle, Lapis. Even though you're so strong. It's one of the things I love about you."

Further emboldened, Lapis swallowed. Her first gulp, pulling Citrinne's feet down into her throat. And immediately, she felt a pang of hunger rip through her. She was ravenous. She needed Citrinne's body to be hers. Her second gulp came much faster than her first, pulling more of Citrinne's lower legs down into her gullet. And her third gulp even faster than that. Citrinne's knees disappeared past her lips... then Citrinne was practically straddling her tongue, which now explored her thighs' squishy-soft texture.

"Hey, um, what are you doing?" Citrinne asked timidly, startling Lapis. "That's a really weird feeling... Almost like a massage, but it's so tight... And my legs are all stuck together, and... my toes are poking into a pool of something warm... Wait a minute. Are you eating me? I thought- oh..."

Shame flooded Lapis. This was all a misunderstanding. Citrinne wanted something else from her... "H'owwy," she mumbled, starting to try to extract Citrinne's legs from her throat.

"I didn't say to stop," Citrinne breathed, her voice dropping into a sultry register again. "Keep going..."

Lapis hesitated, more confused than ever. "Uh?"

Citrinne shivered from head to toe. Lapis could feel it deep in her throat. "That's what you meant when you said you wanted me forever, huh? ... Yeah, okay. I'm all yours, Lapis. Make me part of your strength..."

This is weird. This is so weird. I thought she wanted this, but she didn't want this, but then she did want this... What does all this mean? Lapis thought. But with permission to continue, she hoisted Citrinne's pudgy ass and stretched her jaw as far as she could, squeezing the noblewoman's perfect posterior with both hands. "H'owwy... H'an'oo..."

"Shhh, Lapis. I don't want to hear another sound out of you except the moaning of you enjoying me," Citrinne scolded, reaching down and sliding her fingers into Lapis's soft hair. "And don't you dare apologize. No one's ever wanted me like this before... it's really nice." She tipped her head back, arching her back as her hips squeezed into Lapis's tight throat. "Mmh...! So that's why the Divine One was so worried... Hehe. Oh, so this is the outpouring of strength I was looking for!"

Despite Citrinne's enthusiasm, Lapis's every swallow was laced with guilt, and she needed to pause to squeeze her eyes shut every few gulps. But still... Her stomach was swelling out so pleasantly. She felt more full than she'd ever been, so comfortably, happily full, and she wasn't even done with her meal yet!

As she tucked Citrinne's hands into her maw, the warm orangey-sugary flavor of her sugar scrub took over, and Lapis had to stop and indulge until she'd licked every last grain of sugar off Citrinne's hands, greedily slurping up the flavor of her best friend until it was all gone. As much as she felt weird doing this, she couldn't deny that she was enjoying herself quite a lot.

"M-my hands... That feels so nice," Citrinne murmured. "I always wanted to be more than just friends with you... This isn't how I pictured it, but goodness, this is so intimate... I think it might be better than my best daydreams."

Lapis didn't answer, just gulping up another few inches of her prey. Citrinne's flat tummy passed by, and her small chest slipped easily into Lapis's mouth. Some light nibbling made Citrinne squirm and giggle, and as Lapis's forehead came closer and closer, Citrinne finally snatched an opportunity and planted a kiss on it.

"Love you, Lapis. Take good care of my fool cousins. I hope I'm a good meal for you!"

Then Citrinne's beautiful head of blonde hair slipped between Lapis's lips, and she was completely contained. Lapis's cheeks burned hotly as she hesitated with Citrinne in her throat, feeling her friend's subtle motions inside her body. As long as she didn't take this last swallow, Citrinne could still be saved. She could still come out and be Lapis's friend. Or maybe more than friends? Once Citrinne was fully swallowed, though, there would be no going back. Citrinne would melt down inside Lapis and become part of her for good.

... glp

Lapis didn't even notice she was swallowing, only felt the sudden bulge in her throat as Citrinne's head disappeared into it. Her body had made the decision her mind was too afraid of imposing to make. And it had decided Citrinne was better pudge than pal... or paramour.

She stifled a rising burp, refusing to let herself engage in such base traditions as belching to show satisfaction with a meal.

"Ooh... I can hear your heart beating, Lapis," Citrinne said from her stomach. Her voice was muffled, barely audible - and yet at the same time it resonated up through Lapis like it was coming from inside her own head, impossible to ignore. "It's beating so fast... did eating me excite you? Hehe!"

"I can't believe I did that..." Lapis said, her face burning intensely. "Please don't tell anyone that I did this. I don't want them thinking I'd do it to just anyone. You're- You're special."

There was a long silence, and then Lapis realized. "Oh... Right, sorry..."

"Yeah," Citrinne teased. Her voice was full of delight - perhaps she was pleased to be so special. "Don't worry. Your secret's safe with me~ But I think your figure may say what your lips don't..."

"M-My figure?"

"Well, yeah!" A comforting pat on the stomach wall assured Lapis that Citrinne's laughter was all in good fun. "You think I'm just going to go away when you digest me? Oh, no. I'm going to stick around. I'm going to make you fat. You're going to have an ass out to here. Alcryst will be unable to keep his hands off it, I'm sure of it."

Lapis raised her voice in protest, looking down at her stretched stomach through the dim light from outside. "What- But Alcryst is a prince and I'm-"

"His retainer, I know." Citrinne chuckled. "He loves you, though. You should take your chance."

"No, I mean I'm- I'm a commoner, Citrinne... I'm sorry. You're going to be digested alive by some nobody," Lapis said, curling her arms tightly around her gut, squeezing Citrinne in a reckless hug. "Some nobody from a potato farm way out of town... is going to digest a cute noblewoman from Prince Alcryst's family with a bright future..."

"You worry too much about social standing," Citrinne assured her, her voice quiet. Slow, gentle caresses came from inside Lapis's belly. "You're not a nobody to me. You're the most important person in the world to me."

Lapis dared not breathe, as if sound would break this dreamlike moment. When it became clear Citrinne was waiting for her to respond, all she could muster was "Really?"

"Well, yes," Citrinne said. She laughed softly, reclining tiredly inside Lapis's stomach. "And soon you'll be my whole world. I'll be nothing but food for you, Lapis. And I'm gonna love every second of it."

"... Me too," Lapis said finally, letting herself relax. "How long will you last in there?"

"It depends on a lot of things," Citrinne murmured, stifling a yawn. "But you're quite the strong girl, and I'm really... not. So it probably won't be too much longer now."

"I'll sit here with you until you're all gone," Lapis said, voice calmly earnest.

Citrinne was sounding more and more tired by the minute. "Thanks, Lapis... Think I'm gonna take a little nap... all that midnight training is catching up to me..."

Lapis chuckled, stroking her fingertips along Citrinne's form. "No more midnight training for you now that you're mine. You're going to get a good night's rest, every night. In fact, we'll take our first rest together right now."

"Mm..." Citrinne giggled, voice far away. "Sounds lovely."

"And Citrinne?"

"Mm?"

"I, um- I love you too. Rest well."

Over the course of the next eight hours, Citrinne's form slowly lost its definition, melting away into a round, softened ball of meat... then dissolving into a sloshing soup that Lapis's hungry body greedily slurped up and turned into fat and muscle for the strong country girl. Her thighs grew thicker, her chest got heavier and heavier - and just as Citrinne had promised, Lapis's ass nearly doubled in size. A round, juicy rump, Citrinne's last gift to her beloved Lapis.

Lapis, of course, was not awake for any of this, having dozed off quite easily thanks to her enormous meal. She didn't wake when the Divine One rapped on the door and said she was heading back to the Somniel. She didn't wake when the sun rose and poked its head in the window. It wasn't until she heard Prince Alcryst knocking on the door and calling her name that she finally stirred awake.

"I'm- I'm sorry, Prince Alcryst, I haven't slept that late in a long time," Lapis said, hastily opening the door. "Did you need me for something?"

Alcryst didn't answer, just openly stared with his jaw agape at the newly chubby Lapis. Even in her beautiful home-sewn dress, her improved measurements were quite obvious. "I... uhh......."

Remembering what Citrinne had said, Lapis raised her voice. "Prince Alcryst, I'm in love with you."

She still didn't get an answer. At least, not a verbal one. Alcryst gibbered for a moment before fainting into her arms.

"Oh... dear," Lapis said, blushing hotly as Alcryst's head dangled limply against her chest. "I see..."

"So you see, I'm afraid Prince Alcryst won't be rejoining us, at least... not in his original form," Alear said, placing her hand on Diamant's. "I know this may be difficult news to hear. But I believe it's what he truly wants."

Alcryst raised his voice, approaching the two sitting in the café with Lapis trailing close behind. "What's what I truly want?"

"Brother!" Diamant said, getting to his feet and striding over to squeeze Alcryst in a bear hug. "We were sure you'd want to follow Citrinne into Lapis's digestive tract, so when you didn't come right back, we assumed that was what had happened."

The gradually reddening look on Alcryst's face suggested that he had not given much thought to this being an option up to now. But that he didn't dislike the idea. "O-Oh... Me, as Lapis's... m-meal?"

"Oh no, you've put ideas in his head," Lapis said lightly. She was more than happy enough as it was, having gotten her declaration of love back once Alcryst had come to. "Please... It's going to take me quite some time to work most of Citrinne off..."

She turned to Alear, giving a bow. "Divine One? If I may..."

Alear nodded. "What is it?"

"I'm going to be honest with you. I still don't think this was a good idea." Lapis drew herself up as tall as she could, patting her gut. "But don't worry! Citrinne and I will make you proud, Divine One!"

"That's all I ask," Alear said, smiling. "I'm glad I was able to tempt you into following your heart - or your stomach, I suppose."

"And I will do the same for you, out of gratitude," Lapis assured her.

Alear hastily shook her head, waving her hands in alarm. "You- you really don't want to do that. You don't know what I did before a thousand years of sleep."

Diamant slapped a hand on Alear's back, laughing merrily. "Now, I think the girl has a point! The Divine One should indulge, too!"

"Ah, well..." Alear mumbled, her stomach giving a ferocious growl. "It was nice having friends while it lasted, I suppose..."
