Email the author at: ecchihalf@yahoo.com ------- ====[ BEGIN ]==== ------- Ecchi Half presents: - A Sample to Remember - The smooth green carpet of grass seemed to stretch into infinity where it would merge with the soft bright blue sky. The only thing to break the illusion of a peaceful landscape untouched by civilization, was some seemingly random barely audible 'blibs'. That and the short red-haired genius sitting on a floating cushion, typing away at a semi-transparent keyboard. After a while in deep concentration, Washu raised her eyes from the read-outs on her screen and cried out in triumph: "Yatta! I really am the Greatest Scientific Genius in the Universe." The self-proclaimed genius glanced down at her work again, with no small satisfaction. It was a small masu information unit. The idea of transferring information and innate abilities to Ryo-Ohki or Ryoko with masu had entered her mind when Ryo-Ohki had assimilated a rogue unit and subsequently gained a hummanoid form. By now she had reseached the matter further, and devised a system for 'programming' masu with 'upgrades' to an existing masu based sentient. The masu currently diplayed on the screen in all 27½ dimensions contained an improvement to a masu based sentient very dear to Washu; her daughter. Even if said daughter had a hard time admitting to that title from time to time. The improvement in question was something Washu knew Ryoko would welcome. It was a step closer to humanity for her; a step closer to Tenchi. It was in all artistic simplicity and quite literally 'a sense of taste'. >From their link, Washu was well aware that the differences between Ryoko and the rest of the household bothered her daughter. Ryoko would try to hide the differences, eating and sleeping even though her body never needed to do so. With her latest invention, Ryoko would at least be able to taste food. She could finally compliment Sasami on her wonderful meals in good concience. Not to mention all the other every-day occurences where it would make Ryoko feel a little more human. Washuu actually laughed a bit at the thought of Ryoko suddenly tasting some of all the sake she used to drink. The masu unit had been easy enough to create. Washu already had made fully functional masu taste buds before. A successful set had always been a part of Ryo-Ohki. Successful apart from a little bug mapping the taste of certain Earth-based vegetables directly to Ryo-Ohki's pleasure centers (Washu never actually figured out how Mihoshi was able to meddle with her inventions even before they met). In the new modified version for Ryoko, Washu had removed the bug. She actually laughed out loud at the mental image of Ryoko going through a months carrot harvest with Ryo-Ohki. Collecting herself she let her eyes continue in the data collected on the screen. She smiled at the thought of the other modification. As a scientist she could not resist adding a small analytical part to the improvement. Ryoko's new sense of taste would be delicate enough to isolate every chemical component and gather data the keenest minds in the Galaxy could not hope to obtain with their own equipment. All on a subconcious level of couse; it wouldn't do for Ryoko to contemplate the molecular structure of everything she ate. That certainly wouldn't make her feel more human. Reaching the end of the data-block, Washu concluded what she already knew: it was perfect! It would make a nice present for Ryoko's impending rebirthday. Rebirthday was actually a phrase Sasami came up with. After celebrating Tenchi's birthday, Sasami had asked Ryoko when her birthday was. This had of course brought up some rather discomforting memories for Ryoko. In the end she had answered that she didn't remember. Sasami had proceeded with the idea of giving her another birthday, in order to cheer her up. The other birthday beeing a more happy recent event; the day Tenchi finally gave her freedom. The day she was practically 'reborn'. Since then the household would celebrate Ryoko's (and Ryo-Ohki's) re-birthday as any other birthday. Washu typed the order to have a 'blank' masu imprented with the finished taste-module. She allowed herself a moment of mentally patting her back and congratulating herself: "Nothing is impossible for the Greatest Scientific Genius in the Universe." Well, almost nothing. Despite her every attempt, one critical sample had eluded her for more than a year now. If she continued to fail she would probably have to build something to convince herself how grat she was. Maybe some chibi-Washu dolls to announce my talent from my shoulders? She discarded the thought, idly wondering where it came from. Back to the problem at hand, she continued with a scientific analysis of the problem. After sitting in deep thought for awhile, a new idea popped up. A playful grin spread on her lips. "Just you wait Tenchi, I'll get that sample yet..." --- * --- A couple of days passed with Washu rarely seen outside her lab. When she did come out, it was to eat or take readings with strange devices. All the time she would have a knowing grin on her face, and refuse to hint at what she was doing. Tenchi was pretty sure that it had to do with Ryoko's rebirthday, but still he couldn't help feeling nervous when Washu was around. He swore she even took a few unnecessary readings of him just to unnerve him. Whatever the reason was, there was no stopping Washu, and Tenchi instead made a point of going to the fields more often. For the others in the household, life was not much out of the usual. Besides preparing for the party, that is. Since Ryoko's rebirthday had previously been celebrated as the anniversary of the day it all began, it was tradition to have a sizable party comparable to the Christmas parties held every year. And this year promised to be no different. Sasami had been busy in the kitchen for days prior to the event, cooking up a storm. Mihoshi had (under careful but subtle supervision) produced decorations for the party. Noboyuki had been fetching supplies in the familiy van, and Ayeka had helped wherever needed. Tenchi had even managed to secure a sizable carrot supply from the fields in the spare time his studies left him. Ryoko and Ryo-Ohki had even been helping out, ensuring a substantial supply of Sake and taste-testing the sizable carrot supply (respectively). It seemed that the day would turn out quite allright. Even to Ryoko who had her share of doubts about the whole thing. It was quite a bit of attention, and she couldn't help a small nagging feeling that they did it out of pity for her, because of her past. But even then, it would still be a party as it had been the years before, only with some people congratulating her and maybe giving her presents. She smiled a bit at the thought of what she wished of Tenchi. When she had whispered it to him, he had turned this nice shade of red. --- * --- The pale full moon gave the landscape an eerie dull illumination, making it's reflections in the calm lake waters. Ryoko sat by the lake side, idly pondering the events of the day. She had been right in her prediction. She had been given a few presents, but once the party was under way, it was not much different from the previous year. At least not to the others. Washu's gift had been quite a surprise. And a welcome one at that. Ryoko had wanted to fit in with her new family for as long as she had them, but her unique physiology had made that hard at times. She was now a bit more human. A bit more like the others. She had been overwhelmed by this new world of taste. It was like she had missed an entire dimension for all of her life. For the first time ever she was able to taste Sasami's famous food and give a sincere compliment. She had also tasted sake for the first time. It had been quite a surprise to her, and quite a laugh to the others. Perhaps that was why she was sitting by the lake now, only slightly tipsy. Looking wistfully out over the lake, Ryoko registered a person taking the place next to her. Her sharpened senses told her it was Tenchi. His voice confirmed that a moment later. "How was your day?" "Fine I guess." "Guess?" "Well..it is just so..." "Overwhelming?" "Yes...I never imagined what tasting would be like." Tenchi chuckled a bit at that. "Hey! How was I to know that sake would be so..." "Sorry. I know what you mean. I still remember the first time dad had me try it." ... "Actually I think Washu put something in my glass." "Why?" "It just tasted...differently..and I have this feeling..." "Are you drunk? Think she spiked your drink?" "No not that. Well, maybe I had a little. No it is a different feeling..." They both sat in silence for a while. Ryoko realized that they had joined hands at some time. Again it was Tenchi who finally broke the silence. "Sometimes I wonder what it is like for you. To have lived for millenia. To fly, teleport and walk through walls. To be connected mind to mind with another..." Ryoko sighed and tilted her head to the right, resting it on Tenchi's shoulder. "Sometimes I wonder what it is like to be human. To be normal without powers. Living in ignorance of the rest of the universe..." "I used to wonder about that too, you know. Ever since I discovered who I am, I have been thinking about who I was. Who I was back when I was still normal..." "I think I like it better this way. I wouldn't want to change it if I could." "I know I like you better this way." At that statement Ryoko lifted her head, looking into the eyes of Tenchi. Tenchi wondered a bit why he had suddenly said that. He felt it was the truth, but he had never voiced the thought before. He looked back into Ryoko's eyes, loosing himself in the golden orbs. As they looked deep into each others eyes, they seemed to wordlessly communicate, opening up for feelings and emotions. Slowly their heads moved closer, until their lips met and time seemed to freeze. --- * --- Neither Tenchi nor Ryoko knew how much time had passed. Ryoko seemed consent with kissing and cuddling. Tenchi had half expected her to jump directly to sex after he told her that he loved her. In fact some base part of him was dissapointed that she hadn't, but Tenchi quickly silenced that part. Even so, he found himself asking if she wanted to go someplace more comfortable. It was really an innocent question; the cold, hard ground was uncomfortable to sit on for extended periods of time. However even as he said it, he noticed the not-so-subtle hint he had made. Apparently so did Ryoko. Her expression of happy surprise quickly melded into a more mischievous look as she purred "Sure". Maybe because he anticipated it, the sudden change of surroundings didn't startle him. He hadn't really meant to imply that they should move to his bedroom. Not that he minded the change. He leaned into Ryoko's kiss and wrapped his arms around her. Ryoko had given up sorting out why this was finally happening. She was pretty sure it was not a dream, but she still had a hard time believing that her dreams were comming true. She almost literally melted when Tenchi brought his arms around her and deepened the kiss. Not one to be bested, she responded in kind by adding tongue to the kiss. They went on like that for a few minutes before Tenchi pulled back to regain his breath. Staring into his eyes, she started to pull his shirt up. Pulling it over his head, her arms was raised high when he brought his own hands into play, slowly pulling her red tank-top up. She shivered slightly by the feel of the fabric sliding over her bare breasts and nipples. As Tenchi got her top off, Ryoko's nipples were showing her ample excitement. Slowly almost hesitating, Tenchi reached out and cupped a breast in each hand, sending even more shivers of pleasure through Ryoko's spine. Repaying the favour, Ryoko's gentle fingers danced around Tenchis bare waist and the top of his pants, adding to his growing erection. With grace, her fingers undid the binding of his pats, and they slipped to the ground around his feet, exposing his tent-shaped boxers. Tracing a finger along the elastic top of the boxer shorts, Ryoko slowly edged them down, eventually releasing Tenchi's manhood. As the boxers joined his pants around his ankles, Tenchi absently kicked both articles of clothing away, his mind concentrating on Ryoko. She had lowered herself to her knees, bringing Tenchi's erect pillar in height with her eyes. She stared at it captivated, playing idly with it using her right hand. Tenchi could only watch stunned as Ryoko gazed at his cock with an entranced look in her feline eyes. Slowly her head moved forwards, until the point where her lips brushed his head. With a moan from Tenchi, Ryoko slipped his cock into her mouth. Ryoko cast her gaze upwards, to where Tenchi had his eyes closed in intense pleasure. She could feel the heat and throbbing of his member in her mouth. She concentrated on the feeling, as her tounge explored him, absently registering the taste associated with the piece filling her mouth. Tenchi was in heaven. Sure he had masturbated before, but nothing had felt like this. The heat from Ryoko's mouth engulfing his dick, coating it with her salvia. It was indescribable. He opened his eyes as she slowly drew back, removing him from the hot moist cave of her mouth. As his head slipped outside he noticed the bridge of salvia forming between his head and her lips. Sticking out her tongue, Ryoko licked his wettened tip before pulling the pulsating piece back in her mouth, delighted by the increasing moans from Tenchi. Again she let her tongue explore the texture of his cock while deeply engulfed in her mouth, brining more moans and gasps from him. Bringing her hand into play, she gently massaged his balls while keeping up her sucking/licking job. From the member in her mouth, she could feel his pulse quicken, and the gasps quicken. She heard his half spoken warning, but ignored it. She wanted him to come now, and it would in no way mean their fun was over. Tenchi found himself becomming lost in the sensations overwhelming him from his groin region. While not experienced, Ryoko's actions were *very* pleasurable, and he felt a pressure starting to build. Through the haze of pleasure he was able to mumble a word of warning, but it only seemed to increase Ryoko's fervor. Her hand now messaging his balls, it was not long time before he was driven over the edge. With a last moan he threw his head back and blew his load in her mouth. Ryoko felt Tenchi's muscles tightening, and something hot and fluid was expelled on her tongue. Again and agin his muscles contracted, splaying more of the sticky fluid over the inside of her mouth. With her added sense of taste, she picked up the salty flavour of the hot cream flowing in her mouth. Unbeknownst to Ryoko, the analytical component of her taste-buds was actively analyzing the structure and composition of the semen filling her mouth, sending all relevant data to Washu through their link. Oblivious to this Ryoko simply savoured the salty taste of the sticky white seed coating her tongue, as Tenchi's orgasm ebbed out. Looking upwards she noticed Tenchi staring at her with a grateful and satisfied expression. Still having his softened cock in her mouth, she swallowed his sperm with an audible gulp. Sensing the still hot salty glob slide down her throat. she let out a contended sigh and contiued to clean him with her tongue. --- * --- In the depth of her lab, in one of the peaceful grasslands, the tranquility was interrupted by a diminutive figure doing a victory dance around her floating cushion. On holoscreens floating in a semicircle in front of her, the data from Tenchi's final sample was beeing processed by five planets worth of advanced hardware. The data subconciously collected by Ryoko slowly combined with Washu's own database, filling in gaps in the Great Puzzle. Washu shivered slightly from the overwhelming feelings of happyness, satisfaction and contentment flowing in from her link with Ryoko. She smiled. "Looks like we both got what we wanted, ne Ryoko-chan? Talk about killing two Zthargs with one Pulse-cannon." Of course Washu could never mention this to her daughter. After this, Ryoko and Tenchi should happily have forgotten that she 'spiced' Tenchi's drink a bit. Actually the addition to his drink would only act to lower his inhibitions, much the same way that alcohol does. It did not contain anything that would make them do something against their will. It merely speeded up the process a little. Oh and there was another little addition. Something not entirely unlike the Earth-native product 'Viagra'. "Yes", Washuu thought, "Tenchi should be quite capable of showing Ryoko a good time tonight." With a smirk she added: "Several good times in fact. Urd couldn't have made a better potion herself." --- * --- And Tenchi *did* show Ryoko a good time. Several actually; Missionary, Spoon, Doggy-style and a great deal of improvisation. It was several hours and a change of sheets later that a slightly sweaty Tenchi and slightly sticky Ryoko fell asleep in each others embrace. ----- ====[ END ]==== ----- So this is it. It all started as an idea for a slightly Limey spamfic about how Washu could obtain the famed sample indirectly. Somehow it ended as a full-blown (pun intended) Lemon, wich is perhaps a bit too cheesy some places, and a bit too explicit other places. That all stems from me being more of a hentai than a skilled writer (^_^) In any event I would still like your comments and suggestions. Email: ecchihalf@yahoo.com Hope you liked it. Ecchi Half
