Chapter Text
Felt was going through a delicate moment in her adult life—both in a general sense and in a more… private one.
Why?
Well, she was trying to choose some lingerie or a nightgown that was a bit more… daring… for when she’d have an intimate moment behind closed doors with Subaru.
Something she never thought she’d be doing in her life.
Not back when she was just some random thief in the slums.
But hey.
That’s life. Now she’s a queen and in a relationship with someone.
So she figured she should put in a little effort when it came to their intimate life—not because she felt insecure about her body not having grown as much in certain important areas, no, not at all. Far from it. That was exactly why she was choosing something bolder.
In her room, wearing her usual yellow, slightly see-through nightgown, she tried to decide between several more provocative pieces of lingerie and nightwear.
[Felt: Which one of these… would that idiot like, huh?]
Blushing slightly, she kept comparing the options, carefully analyzing them.
[Felt: Which one, though…?]
[Reinhard: I think this one would really suit your thighs and your hips. But this one here would highlight your bust more, Lady Felt.]
[Felt: I think the thigh one’s better, don’t you?]
[Reinhard: Well… that’s true. Subaru used to stare a lot at your legs and thighs when you wore your old, shorter outfit. I think he still tries to look even when you’re wearing dresses.]
[Felt: Haha! That pervert—but yeah, I do look sexy in that outfit, don’t I?]
With a confident smile, Felt didn’t seem offended at all by knowing Subaru admired her like that when she wore short clothes.
Reinhard nodded a few times.
[Felt: Then it’ll be this one, just to test it out tonight… Thanks, Rein.]
[Reinhard: I’m happy to help, Lady Felt.]
[Felt: Yeah, you—— WAIT. YOU IDIOT!!! GET OUT!!!]
With a shout and a practiced motion, once she realized Reinhard was actually there, Felt promptly kicked him out of her room.
Embarrassed all over again by Reinhard barging into such a private moment!
And Reinhard, standing outside, was only mildly confused by his Lady reacting like that once more.
He didn’t understand why she always reacted this way.
Like in another situation, for example: when the two of them had their first time and ended up yelling at him for watching the entire thing before politely bringing them some water afterward.
Why were they so embarrassed that he had seen everything? He even complimented their performance—including Subaru’s size and Felt’s agility, her flexibility and how she made use of it—especially considering they broke the bed in the process. They got even angrier when he tried to give them tips, particularly Felt, when he attempted to offer advice on how she could use her mouth more effectively on Subaru’s… personal area.
Why did they act so strangely whenever he tried to help and take care of them?
Reinhard could only sigh and keep smiling.
After all, he had no intention of ever stopping looking after them.
