Day 9: Alien Aphrodisiac/Something Made Them Do It (Mariner/Tendi)

The alien marketplace was bustling with activity, vibrant stalls selling all manner of strange foods, artifacts, and trinkets. Mariner and Tendi, temporarily away from the Cerritos on a diplomatic mission, had spent the better part of the afternoon exploring the local culture. They had been offered various dishes, each more exotic than the last, and Mariner, being Mariner, had eagerly sampled everything without a second thought.

Tendi, always excited by new experiences, followed suit.

"Oh my stars, this is so good!" Tendi exclaimed, her eyes wide as she finished off a strange, brightly colored fruit. "I've never tasted anything like this!"

Mariner, who was on her third helping of a savory dish made from what appeared to be an alien crustacean, grinned at her. "Right? This place is awesome! Who knew their food would be so... weirdly addictive?"

Tendi nodded enthusiastically, licking her fingers. "Totally! I could eat this stuff all day."

They were about to move on to the next stall when Mariner's brow furrowed slightly. "Whoa, hold up," she muttered, pressing a hand to her stomach. "You feeling... weird?"

Tendi blinked, looking over at Mariner. "Weird how?"

"I don't know, like..." Mariner paused, glancing around the crowded marketplace as if suddenly hyper-aware of how close everyone was standing. "Like... really warm. And... uh... tingly?"

Tendi's eyes widened slightly as she pressed a hand to her own chest, feeling a strange heat spreading through her body. "Oh no... do you think we ate something... bad?"

Mariner grinned, though there was a slight edge of panic in her voice. "Depends on your definition of bad, T." She tugged at the collar of her uniform, suddenly feeling like it was way too tight. "But I'm starting to think that dish wasn't just seafood..."

Tendi's face flushed a deep shade of green, her breath quickening as the strange, overwhelming heat continued to spread through her. "Mariner... I think we need to get back to the shuttle," she whispered, her voice a little more breathless than usual. "Something's... not right."

Mariner gave her a quick nod, her heart pounding in her chest as the heat in her body escalated. "Yeah... good idea," she muttered, grabbing Tendi's wrist and leading her through the crowd. "Let's bounce before things get any weirder."

They managed to make it to the shuttle bay without causing too much of a scene, but by the time they were inside, the tension between them had reached a boiling point. Mariner's skin felt like it was on fire, her body buzzing with an intensity that made it hard to focus on anything other than the way Tendi's body was pressed against hers.

"God, what the hell was in that food?" Mariner muttered, running a hand through her hair as she paced the small shuttle bay. "I feel like... I don't know... like I'm going to explode or something."

Tendi, who was leaning against the shuttle's bulkhead, was breathing heavily, her eyes dark with lust as she watched Mariner pace. "I think... I think it was an aphrodisiac," she whispered, her voice thick with desire. "Mariner, I can't... I can't stop thinking about..."

She trailed off, her gaze locking with Mariner's, the unspoken tension between them finally breaking through.

Mariner stopped pacing, her breath catching in her throat as she looked at Tendi. The heat between them was undeniable now, the air thick with lust. "Tendi," she said softly, her voice low and rough. "I'm... really starting to lose control here."

Tendi bit her lip, her body trembling as she pushed off the wall and took a hesitant step toward Mariner. "Me too," she admitted, her voice shaky but filled with need. "I don't know how much longer I can hold back."

Mariner let out a low, breathy laugh, her eyes dark with lust as she stepped forward, closing the distance between them. "Then don't," she whispered, her voice full of heat. "Let's just..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Tendi surged forward, crashing her lips against Mariner's in a desperate, frenzied kiss. It wasn't soft or slow—it was pure, raw need, both of them giving in to the overwhelming desire that had been building between them since the marketplace.

Mariner moaned into the kiss, her hands tangling in Tendi's hair as she pressed her body against hers, the heat between them nearly unbearable. Tendi's hands roamed over Mariner's back, pulling her closer, their bodies moving together with a frantic, almost animalistic intensity.

"God, Tendi," Mariner gasped, her voice ragged as she broke the kiss long enough to catch her breath. "You're so—"

"Don't talk," Tendi interrupted, her voice breathy as she grabbed the front of Mariner's uniform and yanked her back into another heated kiss. "Just... touch me."

Mariner didn't need to be told twice. Her hands moved quickly, tugging at Tendi's uniform, eager to feel her skin. They stumbled backward, colliding with the shuttle's console as Mariner's hands slipped beneath Tendi's shirt, her fingers brushing against the warm, soft skin of her stomach.

Tendi let out a low moan, her head falling back as Mariner's hands moved higher, her thumbs grazing the underside of Tendi's breasts. The sound sent a jolt of heat through Mariner's body, her desire for Tendi overwhelming any remaining sense of restraint.

"Fuck, T," Mariner growled, her hands slipping lower, teasing the waistband of Tendi's pants. "I need to..."

Tendi cut her off with another kiss, her hands fumbling with Mariner's uniform as she tried to strip her down as quickly as possible. "I know," she whispered against Mariner's lips, her breath coming in short, desperate gasps. "Me too."

They managed to get most of their clothes off, tossing them haphazardly onto the shuttle floor as their bodies came together again, this time skin on skin. The heat between them was electric, their movements frantic and desperate as they gave in to the aphrodisiac-fueled lust that had taken over.

Mariner's hands were everywhere, sliding over Tendi's body with a sense of urgency, her fingers brushing against the slick heat between Tendi's legs. Tendi cried out, her hips bucking into Mariner's hand as she pressed harder, her fingers slipping inside her with ease.

"Mariner..." Tendi moaned, her head falling back as Mariner's fingers moved inside her, hitting just the right spot with every thrust. "Oh stars... don't stop..."

Mariner grinned, her lips brushing against Tendi's neck as she continued to work her fingers in and out of her, her other hand teasing Tendi's clit with slow, deliberate strokes. "I'm not stopping," she whispered, her voice thick with lust. "Not until you come for me."

Tendi's moans grew louder, her body trembling as the pleasure built inside her, the intensity of the moment almost too much to bear. She could feel herself getting closer, her breath coming in short, desperate gasps as Mariner pushed her closer and closer to the edge.

"Mariner... I'm... I'm gonna—" Tendi cried out, her body convulsing as the orgasm hit her, waves of pleasure crashing over her as Mariner's fingers continued to work her through the aftershocks.

Tendi's body trembled against Mariner's, her breath coming in ragged, uneven gasps as she clung to Mariner for support. The intensity of the climax left her weak, her legs shaking, and her head spinning, but the heat inside her had only dimmed slightly. The lingering effects of the aphrodisiac still buzzed beneath her skin, a constant reminder that the moment was far from over.

Mariner slowed her movements, her fingers slipping out of Tendi with a deliberate slowness that made the Orion whimper in response. A satisfied grin spread across Mariner's face as she pressed a soft kiss to Tendi's forehead.

"Wow, T," Mariner muttered, her voice thick with amusement. "You're still so sensitive." She trailed her fingers gently over Tendi's thigh, teasing her. "How are you feeling?"

Tendi let out a shaky breath, her eyes fluttering open as she met Mariner's gaze. "That was... intense," she murmured, her voice still breathy and laced with desire. "But... I don't think it's over yet."

Mariner raised an eyebrow, her grin widening. "You're still feeling it too, huh?" She chuckled softly, her hands still lazily caressing Tendi's body. "Guess that alien aphrodisiac packs more of a punch than we thought."

Tendi nodded, biting her lip as she shifted slightly, her body pressing against Mariner's once more. "I... I want more," she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper. "I can't... I can't stop thinking about you. About touching you."

Mariner's eyes darkened with lust at Tendi's words, her body reacting instantly to the confession. She could feel the heat between her own legs, the same overwhelming need that had been building since they left the marketplace. The aphrodisiac had ignited something in both of them, something primal and urgent that couldn't be ignored.

"Well then," Mariner said with a playful smirk, "I guess I'm gonna have to take care of you all over again, huh?"

Without waiting for a response, Mariner pressed her lips against Tendi's in a fierce, hungry kiss, her hands roaming over her body with renewed urgency. Tendi responded eagerly, her fingers tangling in Mariner's hair as she kissed her back with equal intensity, their bodies pressed tightly together as the heat between them grew.

Mariner's hands slid down Tendi's body, her fingers brushing against the slick wetness between her legs once more. Tendi gasped against Mariner's lips, her hips bucking instinctively as Mariner's fingers found their mark, teasing her with slow, deliberate strokes.

"Mariner..." Tendi moaned, her head falling back as she let the pleasure wash over her again. "Please..."

Mariner grinned, loving how easily Tendi responded to her touch. "Don't worry," she whispered, her voice low and full of heat. "I'm not gonna leave you hanging."

She pressed her fingers deeper into Tendi, moving with a slow, steady rhythm that made Tendi's entire body tremble. The shuttle bay was filled with the sound of their heavy breathing, their movements frantic as they gave in to the overwhelming desire that had consumed them both.

Tendi's hands roamed over Mariner's back, her fingers digging into her skin as the pleasure built inside her once more. "You feel so good," Tendi gasped, her body arching into Mariner's touch. "I can't... I can't get enough of you."

Mariner smirked, pressing her lips against Tendi's neck, nipping gently at the sensitive skin as her fingers worked faster, harder, driving Tendi closer and closer to the edge again. "You're so fucking wet," Mariner growled, her voice thick with lust. "I love how you feel."

Tendi whimpered, her body trembling as the pleasure built to an unbearable peak. "Mariner... I'm so close..."

Mariner grinned against Tendi's neck, her fingers moving with relentless precision as she pushed Tendi closer to the brink. "Come for me, T," she whispered, her voice full of command. "I want to feel you come again."

Tendi let out a choked moan, her entire body shaking as the second orgasm tore through her, even more intense than the first. Her nails dug into Mariner's back, her breath coming in short, desperate gasps as the waves of pleasure crashed over her.

Mariner didn't let up, her fingers continuing to work Tendi through the aftershocks, drawing out every last ounce of pleasure until Tendi was a trembling, breathless mess in her arms.

When it was finally over, Tendi slumped against Mariner, her chest heaving as she tried to catch her breath. "That... was... incredible," she panted, her voice barely above a whisper.

Mariner chuckled, pressing a soft kiss to Tendi's temple. "Yeah, it was," she agreed, her own body still buzzing with desire. "But I'm not done with you yet."

Tendi's eyes widened, her breath catching as she looked up at Mariner. "You're... not?"

Mariner grinned, her eyes dark with lust as she gently pushed Tendi onto her back, positioning herself between her legs. "Oh no," she whispered, her voice full of heat. "I'm gonna make you come one more time before we get back to the ship."

Tendi's breath hitched, her heart racing as Mariner leaned down, her lips brushing against the sensitive skin of her inner thigh. "Mariner..." Tendi whimpered, her body trembling in anticipation.

Mariner didn't waste any time. She dipped her head lower, her tongue teasing Tendi's clit with slow, deliberate strokes that had Tendi gasping for air. The intensity of the sensation was almost too much, her entire body on fire as Mariner worked her with skilled precision.

Tendi's hands tangled in Mariner's hair, her hips bucking into her mouth as the pleasure quickly built to an unbearable peak. "I can't... Mariner, I'm gonna..."

Mariner grinned, her tongue moving faster, her fingers slipping inside Tendi once more as she pushed her closer and closer to the edge. "Come for me," she murmured against Tendi's skin, her voice thick with lust. "I want to taste you."

With a loud cry, Tendi's body convulsed, her third orgasm hitting her like a freight train. Mariner didn't let up, her mouth and fingers working in perfect harmony as she guided Tendi through the waves of pleasure, her own body trembling with the intensity of the moment.

When it was finally over, Tendi collapsed onto the shuttle floor, her chest heaving, her body spent. Mariner crawled up beside her, pulling her into a soft, lingering kiss.

"Wow," Tendi panted, her eyes half-lidded as she looked up at Mariner. "I don't think I've ever... come that much before."

Mariner chuckled, brushing a strand of hair out of Tendi's face. "That alien food was something else, huh?" she teased, her voice full of affection.

Tendi nodded, her body still buzzing with the aftereffects of the aphrodisiac. "Yeah... I guess we should be more careful about what we eat from now on."

Mariner grinned, pressing another kiss to Tendi's lips. "Or maybe we should just stick to the replicators," she joked, her voice full of warmth.

Tendi giggled softly, snuggling into Mariner's arms as the two of them lay on the floor of the shuttle, utterly spent but completely satisfied.
