#3 of CatDance

In which future plans are hatched, I get lots of moon shots of various sorts, and Ubergard changes clothes. Momentous times.


| When finally the Khajiit and the Bard returned, somewhat disheveled but laughing, Ubergard looked up with a smile. "A new position?" she surmised.

Mikael smiled mischievously at Ubergard. "Every time I learn something new. Tonight, I got a very up-close and personal examination of the exact spot where the Khajiit tail meets the Khajiit butt."

Kitty added, "and what precisely happens when you scratch it there!"

Ubergard, long used to such sexual details by now since living with Kitty and even moreso with Red, just smiled and nodded, as if she had a clue about what they meant.

"Well, let's be going back to the castle, Uber. Mikael, if I don't see you before then, I'll see you in a week!" | |

| "Goodbye Kitty," he said, giving her a big hug. "Goodbye Uber," he said, making sure to give her an even bigger hug to match her stature.

"You know, you really don't have to do that every time, Mikael," Ubergard said, noting the scent of female Khajiit all over him and finding it somehow reassuring.

"Oh, it's just a hug Uber. Besides, every time I see you I can't resist shoving my face in there!"

Ubergard smiled, knowing full well there was a bit of truth to that. He was male after all. "Goodbye Mikael. See you in a few days."

"I'm already looking forward to it!" | |

| With that, the two left the tavern and began the walk back to Kitty's castle.

"Say, did Mikael ever tell you what that 'proposal' business was all about?"

"No, now that you mention it. Why?" Kitty turned up to look at Ubergard.

"No matter, I'm sure he'll tell us when we're on our way."

"Think Red is back yet?"

"Not likely. She usually doesn't get back till daybreak..."

Kitty nodded, smiling. "...and then sleeps all day!" | |

| "She sure has been in a good mood though since she started seeing the Jarl again. Kitty, I really think she will move out eventually. Have you considered taking on more help around the castle?"

Kitty nodded agreement. "Yeah, it's probably just a matter of time now that things are going well for her. Someone from the Tails do you think? Maybe Cheetah and Udaran?"

"Probably. We know them best, and you wouldn't want to invite someone that you later find you don't get along with. I'm sure H wouldn't mind a couple less mouths to feed and they could easily still work there." | |

| "Think they'd be interested?"

"Only one way to know for sure. You certainly have space for them. But I'm also thinking we could use someone else to help me with security too." | |

| "Oh? Who do you have in mind?"

"K'rris would be my choice. He seems to be capable and is comfortable with females obviously. Assuming H would part with him and that you don't mind a male living in the castle with us of course."

"I'd run it by Udaran first, but if she's ok with it, he always seemed like a pretty level-headed sort. For a male."

"Maybe we should drop by tomorrow and talk to H?"

Kitty nodded, brightening up as they climbed the outer stairs. "It would be great to have more people here. And I can't see Red having any problem with it. In fact, if they move in soon she may not need to lean on the Jarl while we're gone. I'm sure she'd prefer that." | |

| "So... um... do you suppose..." Kitty stammered.

"Feeling lonely already?"

"Kinda. It comes and goes, but I would appreciate having someone to stay with me tonight. It feels emptier without Red."

Ubergard nodded and followed Kitty to her room.

"I'm sorry Uber. I can't help it. I just feel so much better with someone beside me."

"Don't tell anyone, but I do too. You really don't need to apologize." | |

| Kitty was surprised at this uncharacteristically vulnerable side of Ubergard. "You? Honestly?"

"Oh, sure. Once I get comfortable with someone like you and Red, I'm really not all that much different than you two you know."

Kitty nodded as she put her outfit away and changed into her nightgown.

"Well thank you Ubergard. But... one thing."

The big Argonian looked down at her curiously. "Yes?"

"That armor. I know you don't like to take it off. But those shoulder guards. They're pretty hard and pointy." | |

| Ubergard laughed, "Oh,now you get picky! No problem. I've got a bikini I can use as nightwear. Sorry but I'm not Udaran after all. I can't sleep in the nude."

"Awww," Kitty feigned disappointment. "And you have such nice pillows too!"

Ubergard looked down at herself. "Why thank you for noticing! Yes. Yes, I do!" | |

| It was when Ubergard returned wearing a reptilian bikini that Kitty realized she had only ever seen the giantess in her full armor or stark naked. "Looks nice on you Ubergard! No offense at all, but since you and Muz-Ra shed your last skin, your scales are really beautiful!"

Ubergard just smiled in answer and got into her side of the bed.

"Goodnight Ubergard. And thanks again."

"It's truly my pleasure. Goodnight." | |

| Kitty was soon snoozing lightly while Ubergard watched her breathe. Almost reflexively she stroked the Khajiit's fur lightly and felt the warm body shift and wriggle a bit closer.

Closing her eyes, Ubergard considered her feelings. Not for the first time, she wondered if her own repressed sexuality was more drawn to the feminine or the masculine. She really wasn't at all sure.

She certainly had her own needs and desires, but they tended to be... unspecific when it came to details. Her youth, though not yet gone, was certainly passing. Yet her most passionate desire was to protect those she cared about, not to ravish them herself. | |

| "Well, someday I'll figure it out I guess." she finally thought to herself. "For now, this is nice. But tomorrow I'm going to work out harder. This line of thought is too distracting."

With that thought, she enfolded her Khajiit friend in her arms and fell to sleep herself, her last thoughts being,"This is what I am. I'm a natural guard. I protect." | |
