Work Text:

“I love these so much.”

Kilana’s hands were magical, Ezri decided in the echoing reaches of her mind. Effortlessly, without a strain, or a shudder, she kept her fingers as straight as pins. As straight as pins, but with none of their hardness, or sharpness. They were loose, soft, yet she never let them crook and scrape Ezri with their long, pointed nails. Those lilac pads drifted, sweetly over Ezri’s pulsing temple, trailing from spot to spot.

“I always seem to forget how lovely they feel,” Kilana murmured into Ezri’s hair, so as not to breath into her sensitive ear. “like little dots of velvet.”

Kilana’s body was the safest place in any quadrant. Ezri lay on her chest, between her thighs, inside of her arms. She could feel her heart fluttering beside her own. Her lush curls brushed Ezri from her taut shoulders, all the way down her bared flanks. Her tail had wound itself about her ankle and the tufted tip bounced, gently upon her foot. Ezri felt as though she was being worn, like one of Kilana’s berry coloured tunics, or like a second skin. Stroked and cherished, and perfect.

Lips that had been scrubbed clean of colour and balm that evening, but all the softer in their nakedness, kissed the nape of Ezri’s neck. Ezri could almost taste them. Kilana tasted as she smelled. A delicate flavour, like a droplet of honey on stainless steel. Though Kilana’s genetically modified mouth could not carry a tune, still she hummed to Ezri. Long, low, sweet monotones, as she slowly swayed her in her arms.

“You’re fine, my beloved Trill. You’re just fine.”

Ezri could do nothing but believe her.

Notes:

I realise that “My beloved Trill”, seems like quite a stiff endearment. My thinking was that Vorta probably don’t have any romantic terms of endearment in their language, as they are not designed to have romantic partners, nor feelings. This Kilana would likely be considered defective by her people, and the Founders. With that said, I think they would have words like “beloved” to use in reference to the Founders. So, Kilana is making do with what she has to show Ezri the sort of affection she might expect. That was too much waffle for a drabble.
