Dhadtoudi's family had not returned until the next morning, and Zaiyu had left various snacks and drinks outside her door throughout the day. When the two newly blooded warriors finally exited the room, T'ahrou had been dressed in full armor as he was when he first arrived, and Dhadtoudi was wearing her usual spandex halter top and matching shorts. Tah'kath paid no attention to the younglings, but Daih'kea poured a drink for both of them as well as herself, and Zaiyu did nothing but click in amusement.
"For a moment I thought you'd died, sister..!"
"Something tells me she would have died satisfied, Zaiyu." Daih'kea trilled in amusement as she brushed aside a few of Dhadtoudi's tangled locks of hair, the girl blushing as she did so. T'ahrou finished off his c'ntlip and bowed respectfully to the matriarch.
"Many apologies for overstaying my welcome, Mate of Tah'kath..."
"You need not apologize, T'ahrou," Daih'kea began, "you are always welcome in our home." He bowed again, then turned to Zaiyu. The two shared an awkward yet acknowledging nod, and lastly T'ahrou turned his attention to Tah'kath who was standing in the gathering area with his arms folded over his chest; a stern expression he had learned from Dhadtoudi when he had first brought her home.
T'ahrou bowed low at the waist once more. "Elder..."
"Warrior."
"Father..!" Dhadtoudi's voice rang out across the dwelling, and Tah'kath's eyes narrowed into slits.
"We look forward to our next greeting, T'ahrou." Dhadtoudi stepped out of the dwelling with the young warrior, the door sliding closed as they went. Several minutes later, the small female returned and looked around the room at the three family members that were staring curiously at her.
"Mother, may I speak with you privately?" Daih'kea humored her daughter's wish as she followed the younger female into her recently used room, the door sealing them into privacy. "Mother, I have a strange question..."
"I doubt that, but continue."
"Would we be able to return to the mating shop soon..?" Her mother gave no reaction, so she continued. "I ran out of the gel...well...all of them. And I won't be needing these," she opened the drawer to reveal the various sex toys hidden inside, "so we can return them...or you can have them if you like."
"Keep them, you may want to experiment with them in other ways in the future." Dhadtoudi shook her head. "What I mean, is you could-"
"I know what you mean, mother...but what I mean, is that they won't work..." her mother tilted her head to the side in confusion now. "They're...too small..." Daih'kea's eyes grew wide as she trilled in amusement.
"How small?"
"Not even half."
Amusement turned to shock as the matriarch processed her daughter's words. "Did you take in all of it..?" Silence was her answer. "And you survived?!" Dhadtoudi's face began to tint red, and Daih'kea trilled again. "We will go now. Something tells me you will be extremely busy in the near future. You need to prepare."

"Daih'kea, lovely to see you again! And so soon..!""Greetings, Ath-Meye. I brought a guest." Dhadtoudi stepped into the mating shop behind her mother, donning her freshly marked bio-mask, and bowed respectfully to the eldest female.
"Dhadtoudi...I am pleased to see you doing so well. Yahti and Aichu informed me of your performance in the dojo, and my son has not shut up about your performance in the chiva."
"Many thanks, Ath-Meye." The female nodded and turned her attention to Daih'kea once more. What can I help you with today, mate of Tah'kath?"
"She is here because of me..." Ath-Meye cocked her head in curiosity at the human. "I asked my mother to accompany me."
The female clicked in amusement. "Are you in need of more assistance items?"
"Lubricant, actually..." Ath-Meye's eyes widened slightly in surprise. "Preferably the water-based, if you don't mind..."
"I have plenty, come." She led Dhadtoudi to the shelf where the various containers were located, and gestured to the top three shelves. "These are all of the water-based products. If you have a preferred scent or flavor, or none at all-"
"Do you have naxa?"
"The naxa fruit? Let me see...yes, right here. Is that the one you wish to have?"
"Please." Dhadtoudi bowed low again, and the eldest female pulled a large canister from the top shelf as Dhadtoudi could not reach.
"We'll have three if it's all the same to you, Ath-Meye." She looked to Daih'kea in surprise now, clicking her mandibles as she retrieved two more large containers. "Anything else, Dhadtoudi?" The human looked around the room and her shielded eyes fell on the far wall that held items for males.
"What are these?" Ath-Meye followed the smaller female across the room until the came to a stop at small, ring-shaped devices.
"These are for males. You slip them on to the base of the shaft and they provide a vibrating sensation. It's a double-edged pleasure sword, of you will." Dhadtoudi looked to her mother who erupted into a fit of rumbling laughter as she waved permission to her daughter. Dhadtoudi made a circular shape with her thumbs and forefingers, and began to size it up against the various devices.
Frowning behind her mask, Dhadtoudi looked up at the older female. "Will it cause harm if it is smaller than the user?"
"Within reason, no. In fact, it could help them last longer. Placing pressure at the base of the shaft has been known to halt climax in most males." Dhadtoudi nodding as if understanding before taking the largest size from the wall. "Dhadtoudi, it is better to have a tight fit rather than a loose one."
"This one will be small." The eldest female's eyes grew wide as she turned her gaze to Daih'kea, who in turn erupted into another fit of growling laughter.
