NieR Automata: Life's Meaning

Apex held Devola's hips in a firm grip as he thrust into her drenched slit, her wanton moans filling the bathroom as she held on to the bathroom sink to keep herself steady. The mirror straight ahead allowed him to see every pleasured twist of her expression, her eyes about ready to roll to the back of her head. A few playful kisses got a little too out of hand during his morning bath, one thing led to another, and here he was, rock-hard member gliding in and out of her tight pussy.

"I ever tell you how beautiful you are?" He questioned.

He purposely angled a thrust against one of her more sensitive spots, a gasp let loose the moment she opened her mouth. "M-Maybe, but I wouldn't mind hearing it more." She managed between moans. "Though right now, I want you to show me, not tell me."

He could do that.

Picking up the pace, Devola's shivering moans acted as music to his ears, her snug pussy clenching down every time he hilted himself inside of her. Quick to release as she was, her back arched furthered, her grip on the sink becoming shaky as a rush of liquid gushed out from her. Her eyes were screwed shut, completely breathless as her climax racked her body. Normally he gave her time to regain her bearings but he didn't bother with that.

That little merciless reward she'd roped Popola into giving him was still fresh in his mind and it was about time he paid the naughty woman back.

Trailing his hands down from her waist, he spend a moment squeezing her ass, her spasming walls clenching down even harder under his ministrations. Dropping down to his real target, he gripped her soft thighs and lifted her into the air -his dick sliding out until only the tip remained- while stepping back from the mirror, putting their whole bodies into view.

"W-wait a minute. I need a second before you-"

"Don't forget who's always saying it your duty to pleasure me." Was all the warning he gave her before easing off his grip and letting gravity did what gravity did best. Devola's mouth twisted into an O shape, a silent moan leaving her as his dick slid back into her leaking hole and pressed against her deepest parts. He powered through his own pleasure, her walls squeezing down harder than ever as he lifted her once more, only to drop her back down.

Devola, locked in what seemed like one continuous orgasm if the juices leaking out of her were anything to go off of, could do nothing but watch her reflection as his dick disappeared into her depths over and over. He tried his best to hold back, but being able to watch her bouncing tits as he fucked her from behind was such a turn on that he couldn't help himself as he dropped her one more time, his throbbing head releasing spurts of cum to color her insides.

That did the job, her eyes actually rolling to the back of her head as she went limp in his arms. It was only once his cum began to ooze out from their connected bodies that she managed to regain some control of himself.

"Y-You are so mean." Devola muttered, wrapping an arm around his shoulder to steady herself as she craned her neck to face him.

"Consider that revenge." He retorted with a smirk. "By the look on your face, I'd say you were enjoying yourself."

"I never said I wasn't." Devola said before kissing him. Raising her again, he dropped her back down, firmly lodging himself within her spasming depths, Devola moaning into his mouth all the while.

One more round wasn't going to hurt anyone.

-Route A, No. 018-

Apex leaped from branch to branch with a moose held over his shoulders, a sigh of longing slipping free. One more round had turned into several before an embarrassed but mostly annoyed Popola put an end to their antics so he could eat, but by then he'd already burned Devola's pleasured twisted face and bouncing breasts into his mind.

It hadn't been planned but trust him when he said he did plan on getting Devola in front of a mirror and going at it again.

As he made another leap, eyes already set on the next branch he wanted to jump off of, a flash of black and white startled him. A2 now stood at the very same branch, right where he intended on landing. He managed to shift his position somewhat so they didn't out right smack into each other but predictably, between them and the giant moose on his shoulders, the branch snapped beneath the combined weight.

They plummeted to the ground, A2 grabbing hold of his wrist and holding him up as her heels hit the ground. Now he know didn't weigh as much as her -according to the twins, all of state-of-the-art tech in her brought A2's weight to a little over three-hundred pounds- but he was still surprised she could keep him hoisted off the ground with a single arm. Especially since she was shorter than him, heels included.

"Why are you doing this?" She questioned as she released him, her sharp eyes burrowing into his.

"Morning to you too." He muttered while grabbing the fallen moose and throwing it back over his shoulders. "Why am I doing what?"

"Hunting. Why don't you let the other two do it?"

Talk about random. First she appears out of nowhere and now she's starting such an odd conversation. She might've shared her name, but she hadn't suddenly become the definition of friendly over the past week, conversations ending as soon as they started. If they started at all.

"I'm more suited to do it." He explained as he began walking, A2 following behind him.

"But you claim to be a human. Androids were built to serve humanity."

"So I'm told." He said with a shake of his head. "Popola and Devola handles the cooking and a ton of other things like maintaining the garden and the generator but they're not good with it comes to physical tasks, so I handle the grunt work. We're sort of serving each other." He looked back. "Its better this way, I'd rather not be dead weight to them."

A2 stared at him with those sharp blue eyes.

"You know, you're already part of our little-" He stopped short, wondering what the best word was to describe their living arrangements.

'Community, master.'

"-community." He finished, going with Navi's suggestion.

"What?" A2 said.

"You keep the area clear of machines while Popola and Devola help with your repairs. Plus we made a place for you to sleep." He explained. "Whether I'm human or not doesn't matter. Don't you think things are easier when everyone's doing what they can to help each other?"

A2 didn't say much after that but quietly followed him.

Lowering his stance, Apex took off in an enhanced sprint, hoping to test something. Sure enough, A2 didn't just keep up, perfectly setting her pace to match his so she remained just behind him. Focusing, tendrils spread across his legs -a byproduct when he truly pushed himself- and his speed increased. A2 matched that as well, going as far as to dash ahead of him when they crossed paths with a machine and taking it down in a single slash before slowing back down to remain close by.

Feeling just a little competitive, he kept trying to outpace her, running the fastest he ever had.

Could his body match or even surpass hers? He couldn't help but grin at the thought.

-Route A, No. 018-

Holding himself in a one-armed handstand on the garden's fence, Apex held the other forward, using the tendrils from it to carefully maneuver a water can, watering one side of the garden while Popola handled the other. While unorthodox, being able to complete specific tasks like this helped him develop finer control over them.

"Welcome back, White." Devola called out from the porch, looking past him. A2, emerging from the dense forest, fixed Devola with one of the harshest glares he's seen yet. "Moody." Devola muttered to herself, more amused than put off by the response.

Once he was done with his half of the garden, Apex retracted the tendrils back into his body and threw himself off the fence, landing on his feet, Popola's thanks waved off as he looked to A2. As usual whenever she came back from the forest, she sat down on the log they placed down for her, sword stabbed into the ground and eyes closed.

These days, he didn't often get to fight any machines. Part of his promise to the twins. What were the chances A2 would be willing to fight with him?

'A good idea, master.' Navi agreed surprisingly enough. 'You've shown great increases in overall efficiency after being pushed in battle compared to training like this. A2's superior capabilities should speed up your improvement.'

Good to know there was some data backing him up. He just wanted a chance to fully test his limits again.

Heading over to her area, he kneeled beside the campfire waiting for her to say something or at least look at him. He'd made sure to make enough noise for her to take notice of him. If she did, she didn't acknowledge him.

"Hey, A2?" He called out only for her to remain sitting there with her eyes closed. Now he was still on the side of giving her space and not bothering her too much but maybe Devola and Popola were right to try and force conversation with her. If she was happy ignoring them like this and only talking whenever she felt like it, that wouldn't really help them get along.

"A2? Hey, can you hear me? A2?" Instead of taking the hint and walking off Apex decided to keep calling out for her.

She showed no reaction at first.

Then her lips began to curve downwards.

Her right eye, the only one currently visible between her dirty bangs, twitched.

Finally, said eye snapped opened.

"Would you shut the hell up?" She snapped at him with a glare.

"So, you can hear me. I thought your ears were damaged or something." He threw out the lie with a smile, well aware he'd been annoying her with the constant pestering.

She kept up her glare, seeing right through the lie as well. "What do you want?"

"Want to fight me?"

"Why would I do something like that?"

"To help me train." Apex explained. "You're stronger than me and everything else I've seen in this forest. If I get use to going up against you-"

"I'm not wasting my time with that." She shot down the idea before he could finish his explanation. She closed her eyes, only to reopen them when she realized he wasn't leaving. "What? Something else you want?"

Apex shook his head, and headed back over to the cabin, leaving her be. He wasn't going to force her into anything more than conversation. Not that he could; he got the feeling that if she was truly annoyed she take off right into the forest without a word. She was rather rude that way.

"Its looks like she's warming up to you." Popola said as he passed her. He raised a brow, wondering if she heard the same conversation as him. He wasn't even sure that qualified as a conversation, so much as him being shooed away.

"Popola knows what she's talking about." Devola added with a nod. "She just flats out ignores us or walks away when we try what you did. Its annoying." If that was the case, maybe if he kept pestering her she'd actually agree to his request. Something to try another day.

He plopped down on the steps of the porch, intending to take a short break before picking up his training again. Hands landed on his shoulders and red hair fell around his face, Devola grinning down at him.

"Want to go inside for a bit?" She questioned, nudging towards the cabin, the look in her eyes giving away what she had in mind.

On one hand, he really wanted to focus on his training. On the other hand, this morning's escapades were still fresh in his mind, quickly be brought to the surface.

Devola lowered herself, catching him in a kiss and being sure to throw in more than a little tongue.

...he could put off training for a little while.
