"Still not t-ired?" Misaki teased, the draw upon her skin could have looked like it was just the right button to push to get her to close her eyes a little more tightly, and after a bit of fluttering they maintained a happy half open, over all loving expression. That was always, always a good spot to do that at. For it, a small red spot began to form as the officer squirmed a little against the larger woman.
"More worn out..." Kim breathed softly as she moved her head somewhat, kissing her lover's nose softly with a light purr. Her mind warring between lust and love against sleep, the larger woman holding Misaki close as she ran a finger over the fur of her lover's ear.
"Good..good. Then I get to save handcuffing you to the rack for later." Kurusu replied with a tired sort of coyness. She wasn't beyond extreme measures to make sure tired soldiers, let alone lovers had the chance to recover properly after some upset and especially combat. Thinking about the other things they had never had the chance to use for only a short while as the touch to her ear shattered much thought with a panted shiver.
"Mmm... good, I'll hold you to that..." Purring, the soldier nibbled softly on her lover's neck, enjoying the officer's reactions while they cuddled and remained intimate, and Kim had mind only for her beloved Misaki. "Mmm... sleep now, and you'll deliver on that promise in the morning?"
"I will..but we should shop on Pisces quickly then come back for that if you want anything special here, while there's still time." Misaki was starting to whisper, more and more quietly to the other woman. "There will be time for that after..but we will decide as we wake." Not that they slept right away, some noises escaped the both of them before all was said and done inside cabin one where finally, after all that only heavy but happy slumber remained.
~Hours pass by~
Misaki awoke with a start like she always did, her mind was programmed to take assessment of the nearby area and alert of any possible threats. During the great SMX war often there was an alarm to wake with, even if it meant imminent combat there was a dark regularity in that she was not used to missing anymore. Realizing she was still pressed against the bare body of the redhead without having to turn the lights on, she dotted a kiss under her chin to try and wake her gently.
Murmuring softly, the aforementioned redhead shifted and squirmed in her light sleep, and while she felt the kiss, she did not quite wake, and instead started mumbling in her half-awake state. "Mmfh... not now, love... sleepy..." Squirming closer to the officer, Kim somehow managed to hit her head with her forearm firmly enough to wake her with a series of sleepy snorts.
Laughing without much sensitivity for Kim at her snorting, and just how she had stuttered into consciousness gave her a hug to try and bring her back. "It's time to get up, we slept a long time. I feel better...are you still with me?" That was a fair question, she wondered how many times the woman had done something like that during training.
"Mmrfh... yeah, I'm good..." Kim muttered softly as she rubbed her forehead, the dull pain and Misaki's laughter confirming just what had happened while she cuddled closer during the hug. Smiling softly, Kim leaned in to kiss the officer's lips.
Misaki broke the kiss only after the hug threatened to put Kim back towards sleep. "So we have two options.." She whispered softly, listening only to the sound of the redhead's breath and that of the ship humming softly in the background, the only thing that really gave her a peaceful sleep by habit. Most of her life had been aboard a ship and her body simply adjusted.
Purring happily as the kiss ended, the redhead grinned teasingly at the shorter woman, her fingers tracing patterns on her lover's stomach while she enjoyed the sensation of her lover's smooth skin. "And they are...?" Kim asked, leaning in to suckle and kiss on the officer's neck again, remembering the effect it brought the night before.
"To stay here and make a mess of the bottom bunk, and somehow use some of the things I got for us...or to take the chance and go shopping at Pisces before we leave port. Also I'm starving and that has to happen either way." Misaki cooed to her lover, gasping when she tried to elaborate but was silenced by lips on her neck, making her squirm and press her hips to Kim.
"Mmm... well, what seems most tempting?" The redhead questioned, running her fingers down her lover's sides, purring teasingly. Pushing the covers off with her legs, Kim had effectively made it easier for them to do whatever they decided, be it mess-making, or getting out of the bunk.
"I don't want to decide right now, that's my jooooob.." Misaki replied out in what sputtered towards a purr then stopped with surprise at herself. "Both are tempting, but we need to be docked for one and we won't be for long..." She really could use a good row with the woman but her sensibility slipped out.
"Seems like it's shopping then, hmm?" Kim asked teasingly as she leaned down to tease her lover's behind with both hands for a short time, before she pulled away and got out of bed with a smile to the smaller woman while she put on her uniform. "Oh yes... would you mind if I moved in with you? I don't want to find out you've suddenly been assigned a roomie, and end up all alone in another room. Gotten used to snuggling with you at night..."
"You tricked me into making that decision..." The XO grumbled, sitting up on the bunk. "I thought I already asked you that." She remarked while looking for her stockings first, going to get them out with the rest of her uniform. Glancing sideways at Kim for confirmation, she queued up the transfer of sleeping arrangements. "Well you could always be with whomever is with you I suppose." She joked, tugging her boots on.
"Don't joke about that, please... At the moment, the only one I want to be with is you, Misaki... I l-l-l... never mind. I'm not making sense anyway." Kim muttered as she squirmed into her own uniform, pulling on the tight suit and the boots in the same manner as the Eucharis' XO, a strained smile on her face.
"Okay..done but hurry and move your things before we go to the station, right now okay? Please don't be upset...I don't quite understand that but I did not mean to hurt your feelings." Rubbing at her ears, the not-completely Samurai NH-27 finished putting everything on, and began fixing her hair with a brush, "This will take a minute anyway."
"I'll take care of it right away. I'm sorry, Misaki, but I'm fine, don't worry about me.... I'm odd, I know." With that, Kim blew the XO a kiss, and slipped out of the room, not caring how frazzled and messed up her crimson hair appeared as she hurried to her own quarters, grabbed what few items she had, most of which hadn't even been unpacked from when she first came on board the Eucharis, and returned to the officer's quarters, where she put her stuff away in a corner, where it wouldn't be in the way, before giving Misaki a soft kiss to the cheek.
