She found leverage on the fusion's shoulder blades, grasping them fiercely./p

"Garnet..." she sighed shakily. She could feel the long digits coming to their hilt against her nook, settled as deeply as they possibly could inside of her. Each small movement they made had shivers surging through her entire body. Her bulge stretched downwards, tangling around Garnet's wrist for additional friction./p

Both of the gems embedded in her palms lit up with a rich, amaranth light. Her mish-mashed attire adopted the same light before phasing away entirely./p

She found leverage on the fusion's shoulder blades, grasping them fiercely./p

Her back burned both where her friend had frantically scratched and where her muscles had grown weary, she did her best to dull the pain by not focusing a lot of attention on it. Instead, she angled her neck so she could press an exhausted kiss to the curve of Pearl's jaw. "Are you alright?"/p

To her delight, Garnet began peppering more kisses along her jaw, edging up her cheek, following its contour until she delicately pressed one to her mouth. Her eyes drifted shut and she returned the kiss, hungry for all she could get./p

Her knot which had swollen nearly twice its pre-orgasm size hindered Pearl from freely repositioning herself, keeping her tethered on a short leash./p
