World of Ranicke 01

Well he seemed to be doing something right based on her reactions. His tongue explored as much of her as he could till she pushed him away. For a moment he was almost offended till he realized that she was asking for something else. "As you wish milady." He shifted and after placing his hands on her hips positioned himself at her opening and gently pushed in. He took it easy since he really wasn't sure how similar she was inside to a human.

Her tail was curled against her back and when he entered her she gave a low groan and he felt so good. He was pretty much the size of most of the males but it had been a while and she felt tight. "Oh Lady, don't stop." As he started stroking she slowly started moving her hips in time with him and as they started to learn the pace of the other. As he was starting to pound away she only got wetter and wetter.

Jim waited for a bit and then started to pull out till just the tip was in and then pushed forward again. She definitely seemed to be enjoying it as he was starting to slowly stroke in and out. He could feel her starting to tense up and get slightly tighter though she was also getting wetter so it wasn't a problem. When she orgasmed he was right after her and he felt his nuts tighten up and then he came. It was a wonderful orgasm and it seemed to last forever before he was done and leaned over and rolled her over on her side and drapped an arm around her. "Oh god, I think I will need to find my nuts tomorrow. I think I blew them out."

She felt him cum and Lady it felt like he was taking forever and had to wonder how long it had been for him. When he collapsed on his side she wrapped an arm around his and hugged it close. "I will help you look as well. Lady that was totally awesome. You might find other ladies offering you some attention." She winked at him over her shoulder. "Then again I might chain you to my bed as well. Tell everyone you are too sick to leave." She started snickering.

He started laughing till she commented on others looking for him as a lover. That got an instant blush from him and he buried his head in her back. "No kissing and telling woman." It had been damn good but when she teased him about chaining him to the bed he snorted though his face was still in her back. "I have a feeling they heard you across the whole camp. I don't think they will believe you." Just because he slid a hand up and cupped a breast. "Might make you scream again."

Sorrel twitched her ears in embarrassment when he teased her back. "Oh Lady you are going to get it." She almost squirmed when he stroked her breast and moved his hand away. "That alone is likely to get you some interest now let's go to sleep." She rolled over gave him a kiss and quickly fell asleep.

Jim snickered at her reaction and rested his hand on her abdomen as he held her close and his fingers were slowly stroking the fur. She was quickly asleep but it took him a bit longer. He had definitely enjoyed this evening but also somewhat disturbed. Was this bestiality? Yes she was intelligent and humanoid but was also furred and had a nice bushy tail and cute little round ears. Suddenly he realized he was stroking the fur on her stomach and enjoying it. "Good god Jim, you have got it bad. Your fur is totally exotic and you are totally sexy." He decided to shelve the discussion for another day and fell asleep himself.

The next morning Jim awoke feeling nice and warm and it took a few moments to realize that he now had a furry blanket curled around him. The next thing he noticed was that he was rather hot and sweaty and needed the bathroom. "Um, Sorrel I really need to use the privacy tents." He stroked her back and got a sort of grumble. When she didn't wake he settled for a good smack on the bottom. "Woman move or I am going to make a mess in here and I don't think you want that."

She woke up slowly till he whacked her on the bottom and stiffened. Sorrel growled at him but she needed to use it as well. "A bath sounds good as well. Last night was quite active wouldn't you say?" She rolled on her back and stretched. Since she didn't have any cloths on it was a rather impressive view for him.

Jim couldn't resist running his hand up her side and stroking the side of her breast. "Yes last night was a lovely night and yes I think a bath would be in order after the privacy tents." He rolled out of the bed and pulled on some of the loose pants and grabbed the bucket with the cleaning items he had been given. He was feeling a damn sight better now than he had been when he had arrived. His right arm was still aching but not as bad as the day before.

She stood and pulled on a long loose shirt and grabbed her bucket as well and the two of them headed towards the privacy tents and took care of business. Once they were done they headed towards the baths and both of them were getting greetings called to them. She was used to it since her father was the chief of the clan but she had to wonder what he was thinking about it. Sorrel did notice a few contemplative looks from a few females and figured that was due to last night. She hadn't been quiet in any way and figured it would get around. Normally when someone was that loud it indicated that they had a very pleasant evening.

He wasn't really sure why all those people were calling greetings to the two of them but he went with it. Jim sort of guessed it was due to how he had arrived and the state he was in. Beyond that he wasn't sure and he wasn't sure he wanted to know. When they walked into the public baths he now knew what to do. He stripped down and tossed his cloths in a hamper and grabbed the bucket and started towards the cool pool and froze when any number of both males and females turned and gave him appraising looks. "Um what is going on Sorrel?"

Sorrel snickered. "They are wondering exactly what you did to make me chitter at the top of my lungs last night. It isn't any secret that you were in my tent last night and obviously there was some sex going on and presumably you were involved." She stripped down as well and tossed her cloths towards the hampers as well and walked down in the water. Sorrel was sure Jim could see her nipples harden as the water reacted to her body.

Jim blushed slightly and sighed. "You are entirely to open about that stuff in this world. Then again I guess in tents it is sort of hard to keep things quiet." He flashed his eyes towards her. "Especially when you are a screamer..." He stepped in as well and noticed her reaction to the cool water and smirked. "Maybe later baby. I can always make you scream..." That was a very quiet murmur in her ear. Jim moved away and started working on getting clean. He had always preferred a shower in the evening in humid climates but here he preferred twice a day to stay as scent free as possible.

She lowered her ears in her version of a blush. Just for good measure she whacked at him as he was getting in though making sure it wouldn't hurt him if she did contact him. "Oh you. You are horrible." Sorrel settled in the water and shivered slightly before starting to work some shampoo into her hair. "So what do you want to do today?" She asked him.

He sighed. "I really don't know. Maybe wander around and see what all there is and maybe find something I can do for the time being." He really hated feeling like a welfare refuge by having everything given to him. Once he was clean he moved over to the other spring and settled down to soak for a few moments. He didn't want to stay in too long and would hit the cold pool before actually drying off. It did feel good to be clean and relatively scent free in the morning. Now if they had arm pit stick it would be better.

Sorrel settled down next to him and leaned back in the water and sighed. "This always feels so good." When he responded to her question she turned and gave him and odd look. "You know you don't have to worry about it for a week or two. You were badly injured and though you are almost well it will take time for you to fully recover. Relax and just learn."

Jim sighed. "Do you have any idea how hard that is for me to do? I am an active person and like doing things. It is hard to sit still even when wounded." It wasn't much later before he stood and walked over to the cool pool and stepped in and rinsed off. Once he was cooled down somewhat he stepped out and walked to the toweling off area.

Sorrel walked out of the water and walked over to him and shook her head. "Don't know how you can do that. You can say your place it cooler than here but still." She shuddered at him and he grinned. That got an eye roll from her and she grabbed one of the towels and started drying off as she took a few glances at him. His wounds were healing well and didn't need any dressings anymore but they still obviously pained him as he was moving slowly.

He grabbed a towel and started working on toweling off. Jim's right arm was still weak though usable but he had to be slow using it or it would start to ache. Eventually he was toweled off but by then his shoulder was aching. "Sorrel can you help me get a shirt on?" He had pulled on what they called underwear and pants but he couldn't get the shirt on and it really distressed him. He had barely managed to get his boots on.

Sorrel moved over to him. "Not a problem." She carefully helped him into a shirt and tucked it in for him. "I know that your shoulder aches but you should be better in a day or two." When he turned to her with a distressed expression she took his face in her hands. "James it takes time. I know that it distresses you but please give it a few days." Sorrel gave him a light kiss. "You will better very soon."

Jim let her help him and when took his face in her hands he closed his eyes and leaned into the. She was the single thing he could hold onto at the moment in this crazy world. "I know but it is hard. This is such a strange place and I am having a bit of a problem getting used to it." When she gave him a light kiss he leaned into it but not too much. "God I hope so Sorrel. I really hope so."

Eventually they finished the bath and headed to get something to eat. Breakfast had been a bit odd since so few of the foods available were anything that looked even vaguely recognizable. Jim had to sort of go with what Sorrel suggested and what others ate. They settled down in a area that seemed to be for eating and he carefully sniffed each small piece or bite of food he had taken and most of it was okay though a few were either really good and he made a point of memorizing the name. The ones that were nasty he also made a note of those as well.

Once breakfast was over they took their dishes over to the cleaning area. After they dropped them off Jim looked around. "Would it be okay if you showed me around? I will be okay for a while but will probably need to go and lay down in a couple of hours."

Sorrel smiled. "We can do that and I have the next few days off to take care of you and show you around. So what did you do where you came from?" She asked as she took one of his arms and started away from eating area. Her father wanted to know more details than Jim had mentioned the other night so he had a better idea of what or who he was.

Jim sighed. "I went to college to get a degree in history and sociology. What that means is that I learned about some of the history of my planet and the makeup of the people that I learned about. What made them tick, what sort of religions they had, and why they ended up the way they were." He had been paying attention to what had been said as best possible while he was somewhat coherent. "I was trained to protect as well. I wasn't able to get a job in my preferred environment and ended up in the military." He didn't expand on that.

She looked very impressed at first. "So you were a knowledge seeker right? You wanted to learn about people and their lives. That is so wonderful." When he told her that he hadn't been able to use that she quieted down a bit. "Being a warrior isn't a bad thing. It protects the clan but a knowledge worker is very important as well." Sorrel looked up at him though he wasn't much taller than she was.

Right about then they were passing a group of what looked like youngsters listening to several older kids playing instruments of some sort and he stopped. He had been listening to what she had to say but he really loved music as well and had studied string instruments along the lines of guitars. The sound was rather different. One looked like it had five strings and another four. All were being strummed and not plucked but he couldn't resist listening. The music wasn't what he was used to but it wasn't bad and he could understand what was being sung for the most part.

Looking at the group it appeared to be made up of three older boys and he guessed they were somewhere about 15 or so if they were humans. Of the older boys there was a Kitsune, an Inu, and maybe a neko. Of the younger group they all looked to be somewhere between 5 and 8 years old and was a mixture of races as well with two inu boys who looked like brothers. "Sorrel if you have something you need to do I can stay here and listen and maybe talk to the kids. I love learning new music. It was sort of a hobby of mine I picked up when I was a teen."

She glanced at him and had to grin since one of his feet was tapping to the beat of the music and he looked really interested. "Are you sure? Do you think you can get back to the tent without a problem?" Sorrel did have things to do but didn't want him to feel he was being abandoned by her. One of the things she really needed to do was to get back to gathering some fruits and nuts for the meals. She normally spent part of the morning doing that before her other jobs.

He grinned at her and stepped forward. "Excuse me boys but I couldn't help but overhearing you having a bit of fun with music. Would it be a problem if I settled down and listened? It is really different than I am used to and would love to learn what you are playing and singing." He gave Sorrel a sly glance. "Well that and when I get tired if someone could show me to Sorrel's tent so I can relax I would appreciate it." His right arm was in a sling since letting it hang would make his shoulder ache after a while.

All the boys turned and looked at him and then her and quickly stood up. One of the older boys glanced at Sorrel again and couldn't help but lower his ears in slight embarrassement. "Um, if you wish to listen to some average playing that would be fine and we can make sure you get back to her tent without a problem sir." His tails were flicking back and fourth as he spoke.

"See Sorrel I will be fine now go and take care of what you need to do. I am sure they will keep me entertained for a while." Jim carefully settled down and looked at the other boys as well. "Call me Jim and not sir please. When people do that I keep looking over my shoulder for my father since I can't be that old yet." Once seated he adjusted the sling to a more comfortable position and waited for the boys to sit down.

One of the younger boys looked at him and the sling. "Are you the human that was brought in injured the other day?" It was sort of a silly question since they didn't have all that many humans in the clan but it sort of broke the ice.

"Yup. That was me. I was badly injured and thanks to Sorrel and the White Lady they saved me." One hand lightly rubbed his shoulder as he was thinking about what had happened to him that day. He didn't really remember the following three or four days before he woke up and was able to take a bath. Everything was sort of a blur. "If you don't mind I would prefer not to talk about it. Not happy memories for me." He gave them a wan smile when he said that.

One of the older boys nodded. "Not a problem Yim and where were we? Oh, now pick up your instruments and try this fingering." He started strumming a simple cord and the little boys started trying to copy him. As they were trying the other two were moving amongst them and adjusting their fingers as best possible so they were getting something that sounded vaguely similar to the older boy's notes. "Yim would you like to join? I can get you an adult sized Gitturn if you like."

Jim wasn't really sure what a giterrn was other than some sort of stringed instrument. "Um, never played one before but I am willing to be shown how if you wouldn't mind." To be honest half the reason he had stopped was to give Sorrel time to take care of what she might need. He felt bad monopolizing her time just because someone had told her to take care of him. As of now he was capable of taking care of most of his needs and didn't need her hovering over his shoulder.

The boy hopped up and hurried away but was back just a few minutes later with one and handed it to him. "This was my father's but please feel free to use it." He settled back down and started leading the youngsters through some more basic cords.

As he was doing that Jim looked more than startled when the young man informed him it had been his fathers and was very pleased that he would let him use it. "Thank you and I appreciate your willingness to let me use it." As he was talking he was looking at it and frowned slightly since it was definitely not something he had ever used before. There were a total of ten strings, 5 doubled up and he had never used anything like it before and it was going to be interesting to get used to.

The young man noticed the frown and lowered his ears. "Isn't it okay? It is a good instrument and the sound is wonderful."

Jim looked up at him and smiled. "It is fine and has some lovely craftsmanship. It is just I have never played anything with only five strings, doubled or not. The instruments I played had either six or twelve strings and will have to get used to the different scale." He was working on some chording and lightly strumming it to get a feel for it.

That got him stared at since all the instruments they knew of either had four or five strings. Nothing they played had six or twelve strings. The Gitturn had ten strings technically though they were played as pairs and not individually. "Wow, that is weird. Where do you come from again?" One of the boys asked and then lowered his ears. "Sorry, you said not to ask."

Jim hadn't really said not to ask where he was from but figured that was included in not asking what had happened. "I am from very far away from here. This entire place is very strange to me and I am trying to learn as much as I can as soon as possible."

All of them looked at him with startled looks and one of the small inu boys scooted over and leaned against him and hugged his arm. "We will help you learn if you want. We's good with learn'in." He was missing a tooth and had a bit of a lisp. "My name is Ignos and my brother is Balos." They sort of looked like doberman's.

Jim looked down at him and gave him a slight smile. "Thank you little one and do you practice here every day? If so I might make it a habit to come by and relax and learn as much as I can." He couldn't resist reaching over and scratching the pup's ears and had to smile when the boy lowered his eyes a bit and got a happy expression on his face. Just for good measure he reached over and tickled his brothers ears as well before sitting back up. "Well I am here to learn to start teaching O mighty instructor."

He listened to them for most of the morning and did his best to learn some of the new chording on the Gitturn before his shoulder started aching and he was getting tired. "Sorry but I need to get something to eat and lay down for a while. My shoulder is starting to ache. Can someone show me to Sorrel's tent please?" Jim carefully stood up and handed the instrument to the boy who had loaned it to him. "Thank you and I enjoyed this morning."

The two little inu boys hopped up and each grabbed a hand. "We's can show you to the food tables and then to her tent if you want." Their tails were wagging and their sort of floppy ears were all the way forward when one said that.
