Sarah walked on ahead, setting the pace, because if she let Jay do it, they'd get their after dark. And if she let Lily do it, they'd walk in circles. They could camp out in the wilds, but she'd prefer not to.
"That was so awesome, Jay," Lily was saying behind her.
"What was?"
"Just seeing... what you did to her," she said. "It's like you mind fucked her. In her head."
"That's where minds are," Sarah said dryly, stopping to consult her map.
"So you're saying she had super senses?" Jay asked.
"Yup!" Lily replied. "And it's like you had like, three dicks or something. For smells."
"This way," Sarah said.
After they resumed hiking again, Lily spoke again, her voice a shy, slithering serpent in the grass. "So... what do you think about fucking my brains out?"
"Could be nice," Jay said, "I feed off of sexual pleasure, and I didn't really get much of it there and neither did she."
"Maybe we could tonight at the inn?"
Sarah stopped walking and the other two had to stop abruptly to not walk into her back. The swordswoman turned around and glared at Lily.
"You need to stop," Sarah said.
"Stop what?"
"It's been about three days of you being all ditzy and non-functional," Sarah said. "We need you to be useful."
"Hey! In case you forgot, I actually beat that... umm.. Punch woman!" Lily said. "It wasn't you, it was me. I did it."
"Two things, I could have beaten her. You stepped in. Secondly, not all our opponents are going to have such easily exploitable weaknesses. What if we needed someone to cast a fireball? Or just some good old fashioned destructive magic?"
Lily smiled, in what she thought was a clever, knowing way.. "I think I know what's going on here. You want it. You want some deep dickings, and you're just too shy to ask. Look, my friend, we can both catch a ride on this dick. He's an incubus, it's no problem."
"Umm," Jay said.
"That's not the problem," Sarah said. "If we did that, we'd both be fucked out of combat capability. Besides, I'm not the one who's a recovering heroin, opium, and alcohol addict."
"Hey! I do weed now," Lily said. "It's the least habit forming. But..." and here, her train of thought seemed to be derailed. "Nothing works as well as this cock. It's like the brains just go bye bye."
Sarah crossed her arms. "That's the problem! You can't handle any of these things responsibly. You're the smartest woman I know, but you'll drink yourself stupid and piss yourself in a bar. You'll end up in some opium den, covered in your own filth, and it's me that has to find you to make you don't get hurt."
"Look," Lily said, wiggling her fingers. "You see this? I bring the boom, so if people want to mess with me, I'll just boom some people. Problem solved."
The two of them glared at each other with such ferocity that Jay felt inclined to step back away from them. Sarah seemed to reluctantly reach a decision, and said, "Do you remember on your mother's birthday three years ago, when you..."
"All right!" Lily screamed back. "I'll stop. Just... stop. And shut up, okay. You win, Sarah. Okay? Just..."
And with that, Lily walked past Sarah, her shoes biting into dirt as she stomped forward. After a few feet, she stopped, breathing heavily as if struggling to control herself, "where do we go now?"
Jay's face had frozen into an awkward smile at this, hoping things would just be okay. He watched as Sarah's scowling face which softened into her only mildly neutral face. "This way," she said, taking the lead again.
They walked on. Having traversed the more rocky and hilly parts of the path, they were now on a mostly level decline into the city of Blowbang.
"That place looks huge!" Jay called out.
From their vantage point, with the sun looking to clock out of work, the many, many points of lights of the city were visible.
"The lights have... a pattern to them," Jay noted. "It's like a grid. I've never seen anything like it."
"What? You don't have cities back home?" Sarah asked.
"We do, but they... they don't look like this," Jay replied. "There's not a lot of us. Our cities are large and sprawling, but they're empty."
And there was a note of something like sadness in that statement, but Sarah didn't feel like mentioning it. "Well, you're going to be homesick. People all crammed together. There's over ten thousand people in there."
"Maybe a hundred succubi would live in a place like this."
"I thought you people were all about fucking all the time?" Sarah asked, unable to keep a sharp edge out of her voice.
"Yeah... I know. And well, we mostly um, import people for that or export ourselves," Jay said. "Most of the time, you wouldn't even know you were dealing with a succubus. It's far better to absorb a little sexual energy from someone and make them think they're just tired than to drain them so much that a local hero has to cut you down for being a menace."
"Is that what you call it? A little?" Sarah asked. "Look at Lily. She's barely functional. And after you're done with me, I'm completely wasted."
"Hey! I'm... functional," Lily's indignance got lost in her inability to expound upon this.
He managed to look genuinely apologetic. "Sorry... I know. I shouldn't, but it does feel really good. Plus, during the act, your enthusiasm is um... very inspiring. I like to please people."
"Uh huh," Sarah said.
"I could hold back," Jay said.
"Sure," Sarah dismissively.
And here, Jay had a bit of a grin. "Aww, please don't be mad at me, sis-"
Sarah whirled upon him, standing at her full height, blood still on her face and chin,, looming over the petite pretty boy.
"Not another word," Sarah cautioned him.
"What?" Lily asked.
"You too," Sarah turned back around and led the way into town.
Jay's grin turned sheepish as he shrugged his shoulders at Lily, who looked from Jay to Sarah, and then followed in the warrior woman's wake.
"What's another word?" Lily asked.
"Another word for what?" Jay responded wryly.
Up ahead, cheeks blushing with embarrassment, Sarah sped up her pace.

Sarah and Lily were having dinner in the tavern, where they could see outside into the street where Jay was excitedly chatting with a group of kids, asking about the games they were playing. He seemed to be having a good time.
"They don't have a lot of kids," Lily said, as if the thought had just occurred to her.
"It does not sound like it," Sarah said.
"When I was young, I remember playing with kids like that," Lily said.
"Me too."
"I think maybe Jay didn't have other kids?"
Sarah poked at her chicken and rice, and nodded. Outside, a little girl giggled, and Sarah looked up to see Jay struggling under the weight of two five year olds demanding piggy back rides.
"What a goof," she said.

They were both in their pajamas for the night, and Jay was once again in another room. They were just about to settle down for the night, when Lily had stopped Sarah, a serious look on her face.
"Sarah, I know what you're going to say," Lily said.
"Okay," she replied. "I don't."
"I'm... becoming smart again," the mage's voice trembled just a fraction. "And... I... just... need to be a bit numb. If you don't let Jay fuck my brains, I'll just use alcohol. I'm sure someone in this town would sell me some opium or something if I throw diamonds at them."
Her voice took on an edge of braveness as she made the threat.
"And..." Lily went on. "We're going to be on a train all of tomorrow. No one's attacking us there. So, just..."
Her bravery gave way to a cajoling tone.
"I know why you do this," Sarah said.
"No you don't!" Lily shouted. "You don't, so don't pretend that you know what this is like."
"You think people hate you," Sarah said.
"People hate me... oh. I guess I've told you before," Lily asked.
