Big O

The landlady was on the phone. She was asking Tommy to check the internet connection in one of the buildings apartments. She promised to pay him in the next months rent. She was a sweet middle-aged lady who cared about the building's residents more than they would've liked. Tommy agreed to have a look, he didn't much anything else to do, being unemployed. I guess I need a screwdriver.

Tommy stepped out of the elevator and found the apartment. Door was surprisingly plain. There wasn't even a "No Ads" sticker on the door, which landlady had given out free to all the residents. Surprisingly the bell didn't work. Few knocks on the door. Tommy waited for a bit. Nothing, maybe the they weren't home. Few more knocks. Clinks of falling bottles like someone had stumbled on them. Oh great, a drunk. The sound was very familiar to him.

Finally the door opened. Tommy tensed up a bit. It was one those aliens, or 'Outworlders' like the work sensitivity training had taught him. It stood tall, very tall. It couldn't fit properly past the doorway. It was a dinosaur alien or at least that's what his dumb part of his brain was telling him.

	'Oh... sorry I-. You must be here to check the connection?' She tried to focus her eyes.
	'Yeah-, yeah The landlady called me about it' Tommy's brain did not expect perfect English from that maw. The feminine voice didn't even fit the face.

The dinosaur lady opened the door for him. He awkwardly made past her in the narrow doorway and gave even more awkward smile. The dimly lit apartment was littered with half eaten fast-food and their packing. The walls were gray and empty only light source in the apartment seemed to be a single large screen on the floor. In front of it was a large mattress with nothing on it. A fridge dominated the back wall.
	'Uh, moving in is pretty tough, eh?' He realized there was no boxes anywhere. She didn't say anything.

She was wearing a grease stained t-shirt and something resembling pajama pants. She carefully cleared a path trough the old fast food with her long legs.
	'I don't know what's wrong with it, I called the service provider and they said the connection was still okay on their end' She was almost whispering like she was embarrassed. She looked at the trash around the apartment.
	'No worries, I'm sure it's not unfixable' He tried not to pay attention the state of the apartment but that probably made it worse.

One of the connectors was not completely pushed in. Slight push and the connection returned.
	'I think that was it'
	'That was it?' She seemed surprised and embarrassed. 'I should not have called if-'.
	'No no. These things happen. It's okay' Tommy picked up his screwdriver.
She stood quietly for a while. in a defeated voice she silently uttered 'How much was this then.'
 	'Noooo, no money, this was a favor for the landlady.' Tommy raised his hands defensively against any money 'It's free.'
	'But- I can pay you. I'm not poor.' She started looking for her wallet among the trash. She seemed almost frantic how she searched it.
	'Hey, I can't take any money. The landlady pays me'
The dinosaur lady stopped and hung her head down 'Yeah, I guess that's okay... She's a nice lady' She sniffled a bit. The two stood in awkward silence for an eternity.
	'Uh, um- So, I think I'll have to go.'
	'Thanks' genuine appreciation warmed her melancholy whisper.
	'Cheers'

Tommy briskly walked to the door and quickly closed it. Well that was some depressing shit. The rain drummed on the eighteenth floor window. Outside the neon kiosk sign defied the darkness. They had pretty varied inventory for a kiosk. He wondered if they sold bedsheets.

The cartoon on the screen was playing it's slapstick to no one. Orono was asleep, curled into a ball on her mattress. The cool air kept her shivering and the rough surface of the bare mattress irritated her skin. She didn't care. She twitched and clawed air. A loud knock. She jumped up her eyes wide, she was wet from cold sweat. The panic subsided as her mind came back. Someone was knocking on her door. 'Did I forget something?'.
	'Hey! It's me' The human repairman had come back. She looked around the screen 'he must have forgot something'.
She opened the door. Tommy stood there, wet from the rain. He was holding two giant plastic bags filled with things. 'Quickly grab one of these, I don’t think I can hold them much longer' The dino lady instinctively grabbed both of the bags. Leaving Tommy holding air and almost falling over.
	'Thanks, they look better on you' She held them up with ease, he noticed large biceps bulging out.
Orono was dumbfounded, did this asshole think she's poor. 'I'm sorry, are these for me?' she growled trough her teeth. Tommy realized the implication.
	'No! I don't think you're poor! But yes these are for you, but you're not poor!'
Orono dropped the bags with tears in her eyes 'Goddamn it.. I don't need your bullshit charity' her voice broke and she looked angrily at him through her tears. Tommy looked at her slightly spooked.
	'It's not charity. I just wanted to help. You seem depressed'
	'I...' She looked around startled. She stood silently thinking.
	'There's no charity food in those bags, It's all sugar and fat.' He raised his finger 'In fact there's nothing charity related in them' He quickly glanced at the bags 'Well maybe the bedsheets and the blanket'. Orono picked up the bags and took deep breath. She looked up and then down at Tommy.
	'Come on in' She bumped the door open for him.

Tommy gave her an encouraging smile and walked carefully past her. She carefully monitored him and shut the door with her tail. She carried the bags after him. Tommy tried to look for table to put the bags on but Orono just lowered them on her mattress. The mattress looked brand new. Tommy even found an info pamphlet still attached to it.
	Orono sat her massive body on the mattress 'So what's in these bags?'
	Tommy smiled at her and started going through the bag 'A giant bag of candy, two chocolate bars, three soft drinks, One four liter ice cream bucket, a bottle of scotch, license for two hundred movies' He turned to the other bag 'One extra large blanket, two extra large pillows and blue covers for all of them.' Tommy gave her his salesman smile.
	'Why three soft drinks?' She smiled her feral teeth at him.
	'There was a sale for three.'
The two sat silently looking at the groceries. Her size was intimidating to him even when she was sitting down. Her feral teeth were constantly on show as her mouth didn't close completely. If she couldn't talk English Tommy would have ran the moment he saw her. She turned to Tommy again.
	'I understand why you are doing this, I appreciate it'
	'Just full disclosure here' He raised his hand 'My brother had depression and ended up killing himself.'
Orono looked at him, shocked. Tommy continued 'I got over it long time ago, but now I'm very sensitive about depressed people' He pointed his finger at her 'And you are depressed' He sat down on the mattress. Orono looked down and around the apartment.
	'I'm that obvious, huh?' She raised her eye ridges sarcastically.
	'You wanna talk about it?'
	'No'
	'We'll watch a movie and eat ice cream then'
	Orono tilted her head at him and gave an appreciative snarl 'I see we are friends already.'

The two sat on the mattress as the movie on the screen illuminated them. Tommy glanced at Orono, she seemed to be very concentrated on the movie. She had the opened four liter ice cream bucket on her lap. Good thing he had the foresight to buy spoons too. Tommy then remembered something.
	'Uh.'
	She turned to him eye ridge raised.
	'I don't know your name.'
	The realization hit her and her smiled turned to laughter. She almost choked on her ice cream.
	Tommy smiled too 'I know! right!'
	Taking breath, she recovered 'It's Orono.'
	'Tommy.'
	She smiled again. 'Nice to meet you Tommy.'

The movie ended. Orono was left in the real world again. She turned to Tommy to give an appreciative smile.
	'I feel very good.'
	'To be honest I have no idea how you feel good after a literal bucket of ice cream and a half liter of coke on top of it'
Orono ruffled his hair. Tommy instantly tensed up as her claws brushed against his scalp.
	'Oh sorry, I can't resist hair. It's a weakness I have.'
	'It's nothing, It's just I find your appearance... intimidating.'
	She bared her teeth and opened her mouth in smile 'I know what you mean. You don't have to worry though, I just ate.' She bumped her snout against his shoulder, Tommy chuckled.
They sat quietly a while.
	'I'm sure you don't want to talk about it yet'
	'I feel too good talk about it. I promise I wont kill myself tonight.' She smiled humorously at him.
	'I think I should go. It's pretty late.'
	'Work tomorrow?'
	'Nah, unemployed'
	'Will you see me tomorrow?'
	'If you want, definitely'
	'Can you- Would you like to sleep here?'
	Tommy felt a slight surge of shock go trough him. 'She doesn't mean...' And Orono saw exactly what he was thinking.
	'Tommy- sorry, but you are not really my type. I just feel very lonely and... I know it's silly.' She shook her clawed hands in frustration.
	'Uh, you want me to be your teddy bear?' Tommy quizzically shook his head.
	'Yes'
	'That's very strange... but okay.'

Tommy awkwardly laid down on his side on the mattress, fully clothed. Orono spread herself behind him. Tommy suddenly felt really small. She pulled the new blanket over them, hugged him and let out a satisfied sight. Her heartbeat and slow breathing made Tommy strangely relaxed.
	'This is still very strange but now it's comfy.'
	Orono lowered her snout against top of his head 'Do you mind if I leave the screen on?' she changed the screen to a free stream. Someone was trying their damnedest to sell kitchen knifes.
	Tommy yawned 'It doesn't bother me.'
	Orono tightened her hug a bit 'thanks.'
	'it's okay.'

Tommy felt sharp pain in his chest. It was still dark. He couldn't breathe properly. He first panicked and thought he was having a heart-attack. But after he realized he couldn't move he understood it was Orono pressing her claws against his chest. She was hugging him very hard. This didn't feel safe to him, He could feel points of her claws poking through his shirt. She seemed tense and rocked slightly back on forth. He could hear her whispering in her sleep.
	'The grenades... No knifes' Her tone of voice became more angry and desperate 'No grenades, NO KNIFES.'
Tommy was disturbed, her grip seemed get more violent and she moved more. He realized he should wake her up. He tried call her name but she didn't react to it. He lightly slapped on her cheek and repeated her name. She seemed to wake up.
	'Orono, you were having a nightmare. You talked in your sleep' Tommy noticed she was breathing erratically.
	'T- Thanks' she took in few sharp breaths 'I don't feel well.'
	'Do I get a bucket?'
	'No, stay I- I need to cry a bit'
	'Wha-' She pulled him in harder and started sobbing. 'Can I help?.'
	She whispered through her quiet sobbing 'Y- You are already helping. Just d- don't leave.'
	Tommy grabbed two of her claws in sympathy and petted her arm. Half an hour later both were asleep again.

Tommy woke up. Sun was peeking through the closed shades, into the apartment. He felt Orono's arm still around him and her breath in his hair. He remembered her nightmare. She seemed very calm now.
	'Orono?'
	She answered half asleep 'Mhhn?'
	'You awake?'
	'No' she answered sternly.
	'Well then you won't noticed when I slip out-' She placed her hand on his face and pulled him back.
	'Okay enough affection, really I need to take a shower' He lifted her arm off him and stood up. The room looked even more horrifying during the day. 'I'm going to clean up apartment as well.'
	'There's a shower right there' She pointed at a her apartment's bathroom door.
	'I'm sure you have imaginary towels in there too.'
	Orono rose up from the mattress and she towered over Tommy. 'We'll watch more movies today?' She had almost childlike pleading in her voice.
	'I'm sure we will' He was taken a back by her almost desperate voice.
	'I'll take a shower too, here's a key.'
	'Key to your apartment?'
	'yeah'
	'I'm not going to move in you know'

Tommy returned to Orono's apartment with towels, cleaning equipment and trash bags. He was going to knock but realized he had keys now. He opened the door. Orono was fetching a towel from her pile of clothes in the furthest corner of her apartment, naked. Tommy slammed the door right back close. An awkward silence lasted for a minute.
	'See much?' Orono sounded like she'd been laughing the past minute.
	'Err, enough'
	'You can come in'
He opened the door again. She had a towel wrapped around her waist. She didn't have breasts but Tommy's brain demanded coverage on them.
	'You need an extra towel? You know-' He was going to point at her chest but couldn't figure a reason to.
	'My imaginary mammaries? Sure' She took chuckled at him and took a towel from him. She wrapped it around her chest. 'Better?'
	'Sorry about that.'
	'It's my fault. I gave you the key. Hopefully this didn't weird you out'
	'Oh I'm pretty sure it passed that point a night ago.'
	Orono looked slightly embarrassed. 'It was comfy though?' She smiled slyly.
	He gave her a look 'That's what I said, now get dressed and let me clean your apartment.'
	The massive alien woman took her pile of clothes and retreated to the bathroom.
	Tommy put on his rubber gloves, and grabbed the broom firmly.

He managed to fill four large trash bags. The floor was clean now aside from few black marks that didn't come off. The apartment was very empty now. It echoed. The bed was neatly made with the new blue covers. He realized Orono had been in the bathroom the whole time.
	'Are you okay in there' He knocked on the door.
	'I'm okay'
	'Can I come in?'
	'Sure'
	She was lying on the bathroom floor. Sprawled out. Spike of panic immediately hit Tommy, he reached for his phone.
	'Are you okay!?'
	'What?' She answered groggily and raised her head to see why he was so worked up.
	'You're not hurt?'
	'What- why would I be hurt? This floor is really warm.'
	The shock was burning down 'I- my god. I thought- fuck.' He threw his phone on the tile floor.
Orono's eyes opened in realization. She picked herself up from the floor. She put her hand on his shoulder.
	'I'm not self-destructive, I have other issues.'
	'You've been in the army and you have PTSD?'
	'Yeah, that's an... uncomfortably close guess.'
	'You talk in your sleep.'
	'Figures, can I hug you?'
	She lifted him up and hugged him tightly. Her voice broke as she whispered to him 'Can we never talk about it, jus- just watch movies?'
	'Just movies.'

The pair lay side by side on the bed watching another movie.
	Orono turned her head to Tommy. 'I love you Tommy, I know I'm just a stranger you met yesterday but this feels right.' She lifted her hand around him and hugged him closer.
	'I love you too Orono' He gave her glance 'this is "we are friends" love, right?'
Orono blew some air from her nostrils on him and bumped her snout on him. She climbed on his back and hugged him. He felt her massive frame pushing him into the bed.
	'What are you doing?'
	'Hugging you'
	'You are a girl right?'
	'Sheesh! you just saw me naked.'
	'This hug just seems unnecessarily erotic.'
	'This feels erotic to you?'
	'Well you did just mount me.'
She placed her snout on back of his neck and blew hot air on him and added with a soft whisper 'Does this feel erotic to you?'
	'What are you doing?'
	She rolled off him and ruffled his hair 'Calm down, I'm just teasing you.'
	She turned to him with a feral smile. 'Actually, what do humans taste like?'
	'Ahaha, very funny.'
	She lunged at his throat and licked it. Tommy's heart skipped a beat from fear and surprise.
Orono rolled her tongue in her mouth. 'You taste like salty pork.'
Tommy stood up and threw his hands in the air. 'That's it. You need to cool down missy.'
	'But I- I didn't mean it as a-'
	'No buts, I see what you are. You are horny. I appreciate the affection but you are very vulnerable and still very scary.'
	'You aren't leaving me alone- right? Please don't.'
	'I'll visit the store, I'll be back in an hour. Don't worry I'll promise to come back.'
	'Sorry, I made it weird.'
	'It's okay. I'll be back soon' He tried not to feel bad as he left her alone.

Orono was eating the last scraps last night's groceries as Tommy came back. He carried a wrapped present.
	'You didn't buy me goddamn present'
	'Yeah'
	'What for?' Her eyes widened as she surveyed the package. She really liked presents.
	'It's... Utilitarian. Just open it after I leave. I need get us more food, I'll be back, uh... in an hour.'
	'It's embarrassing?' She gave him another of those feral smiles. She grabbed the present from him and ran to the door. She leaned her back on it, Tommy would have no chance of escape.
	'Orono could you not-' He was already turning bright red.
	She noticed his reaction. 'What the hell did you bring me?' She started unwrapping the present.
He covered his face with his hand and turned away. The noise of unwrapping paper continued for a while until it suddenly stopped, there was one last loud pop as she cracked the plastic packaging.
	'Oh my god, It's amazing'
	'Yeah, can I leave now?'
	'Come on! Don't be embarrassed, this is a very thoughtful gift, I love it.' She turned him around and took his hand away. A giant dinosaur girl with a giant blue dildo smiled at him.
	'One question though' She looked at it.
	'Any particular reason for the model choice? I mean isn't this is a human peni-'
	'It was only one of that size' He tried not to look at her.
	She smiled at him and lifted his head with her talon. 'I could have gone with a smaller one but Thanks, it's an amazing gift.'
	'So, I'll be off to the store then' Orono stepped out of his way. 'You do your thing.'
	She gave him a perverted chuckle.

Tommy knocked on the front door.
	'You can come in' Orono yelled with a laughter.
He opened the door and slipped in like nothing ever happened. He left the filled plastic bags next her on the bed and crawled next her on the bed.
	'You okay?'
	'I feel a bit sore and tired but good.' She smiled lovingly at him.
	Tommy chuckled a bit 'Okay. We watch more movies?'
	'Yes, please.'
He turned to watch the screen but she kept staring at him. Tommy noticed and turned back to her. 'Hmm?'
	'I know you are not comfortable with my shows of affection but, can I give you a small kiss on the cheek?'
	'It's fine, go ahead.' He turned his head for her.
She didn't have proper lips for kissing but she gave him a quick dab on the cheek, she left a wet mark with the tip of her tongue.
	'We can return to our movie watching now' She said and gave him a push with her head, almost knocking him off the bed.

They started feel sleepy after the third film. Fourth was still running but Orono only listened to it.
	'How do you feel?' Tommy was facing her on the other pillow.
	She opened one of her eyes and quietly looked at him to compose an answer. 'I feel like I've been raised from hell to heaven in two days. You've made me happy with simple things.' She gently brushed his cheek with one of her talons.
	He took her hand gave it a brush 'You want to sleep now?'
	'Yeah, come here.' She pulled him against her. 'Is it too much if take my shirt off? I don't usually-'
	'Yeah it's okay'
She pulled her shirt off and resumed hugging him. An immediate intimate warmth engulfed Tommy. She brushed her claws against his t-shirt. Her voice changed to a softer tone 'Can I.' she paused 'Take your shirt off?' She was doing it again. Tommy enjoyed greatly the relaxing effect her body had on him. But realized she might take wrong cues from him.
	'If- if it helps you sleep, sure.'
She carefully lifted the shirt of him and pressed him against her. It felt incredible. The relaxing quality now had erotic smoothness and skin contact. He could feel her heart in her head, her breathing rocked him gently against the sheets. It gave him an erection, which he expertly hid from her with tactical hip movements. Tommy felt uncomfortably good.
	'Can we be like this forever' She whispered to herself and pressed around him. He heard her.

Tommy woke up. It was the same thing. She was pressing his chest and mumbling in her sleep again. It seemed worse this time. One tip of her claws had drawn blood from his chest. He decided to wake her up again. He gently slapped her cheek and called her name.

She let out a bloodcurdling scream and gripped him violently with her talons. All eight pierced his skin. Tommy yelled in fear. She yanked his neck into her jaws and held him by the throat. He could feel her trying to talk even then. He couldn't do anything, She was grabbing him from behind and she four times heavier and stronger. She let out a mix of growling and screaming, releasing him from her jaws. She kicked him airborne and across the empty room, leaving a massive gash in his hip as her toes raked him. Tommy smashed into the fridge, he lost consciousness and slumped on the floor. The half open fridge illuminated his moveless body. The scaled giant stopped screaming and twitching, she slowly closed her eyes and rested her head on the pillow.

Orono smelled something, a metallic smell. She opened her eyes. She felt comfortable but there was a cold gap where Tommy had been. He had gone somewhere. She didn't want to move yet, maybe he was in the bathroom? She listened but couldn't hear anything. She noticed a ray of cold light coming from the fridge. He got hungry? She waited the fridge to close but it never did. She lifted herself to see the fridge. She gasped at the sight of the body laying on the floor. Her head raced. She jumped up and lunged towards him. She planted her foot on the floor and slipped. She splashed into a pool of liquid. She was surprised and clambered to open the fridge door to see what had leaked out of it.

It was blood, there was blood everywhere, a pool on the floor, a splatter in the ceiling and the fridge was covered with it. She started screaming and her eyes went wide. She felt pain behind her eyes, a pain that dimmed her vision and made her fingers numb. She started to lose feeling in her legs. Her neck couldn't keep her heavy head upwards. She started to slump against the fridge, she could just lower herself into the dizziness and sleep. Her eye caught sight of the body next to the fridge.

Her mind hit a glass wall, it was three meters thick and indestructible. The world came into focus. She heard herself take a long deep breath in the silent apartment. She steadied herself and stood up. She started shredding a t-shirt into strands and wrapping them forcefully around him. Her eyes darted as her mind raced to find the fastest route. It was the eighteenth floor, she couldn't jump. The elevator was slow, the fire-escape would take too long... The fire-escape was covered with a chain link wall all the way down. She yanked the last strand close on the unconscious body, they were already wet with red.

Orono pulled Tommy's body under her arm and held tightly. She opened her balcony window and jumped out. Chain link wall clinked and her claws took hold. It was raining and a strong winds whipped the side of the building. She glanced down, she could drop down few meters at a time all the way down. Even with one arm.

Moment her bare foot hit the asphalt, she ran. The world turned into a blur as neon and headlights streaked around her. She didn't even know if he was alive anymore, she didn't check.


Tommy didn't want to open his eyes. He felt way too comfortable. The bed felt like it could swallow him in with it's softness and the pillow smelled clean. A beep caught his ear. That sounded almost like a medical machine from a show- He opened his eyes in shock. The sterile colors of the hospital were all around him. He had white stickers covering half his body. He could hear people around him in the crowded hospital. He didn't even have his own room, the bed was walled from the world with a portable screen.
	'Hey, I'm awake' He talked in the general direction of the sound he thought sounded like nurses.
He heard someone coming towards him. She yanked the screen to the side.
	'How are you feeling?' She gave him a nurse smile.
	'I feel good. What happened?'
	She stepped in and closed the screen. She read the paper attached to the bed. 'You had large lacerations over your body when you got here. You've lost few liters of blood.' Tommy seemed shocked 'Scans show you don't have any internal bleeding or broken bones.'
	'You got patched up with gel and stickers. The wounds should heal up pretty quick. There was some nerve damage in your left hip, You shouldn't walk with it for a day or two so it heals properly.'
	'Missing blood was replaced with an artificial oxygen carrier. You'll need to take these one a day for a week.' She handed him a bottle. She was clearly in a rush to get somewhere else.
	'Thanks. I guess I can leave soon?'
	'You can leave immediately after you give your statement to the police.' She parted the screen and left.
	'Wait the police? why-'
	A tall policeman immediately entered. He seemed over-dressed with his armor and a large firearm hanging from his outfit.
	'Nurse reckons you can give your statement now.'
	'Oh, I'm sorry I don't understand. What's the statement for?'
	'Memory problems? Nurse didn't mention that. Well, let me help ya, There's giant half naked Dino girl in the lobby. She's covered in your blood and your wounds match those that her claws would cause.' He lowered his pen to his tablet. 'Sound familiar?'
Tommy now remembered what had happened.
	'She attack you?' He looked at him over his reading glasses.
	'No, no, I think she saved my life.'
	'Nurse said she brought you in but assaulters often bring their victims to the hospital. To avoid upgrading assaults into murders.'
	'She did attack me but she was having a nightmare.'
	'A nightmare?'
	'She has violent outbursts during the night.'
	'She's a sleepwalker?'
	'No, I was sleeping, uh... Next to her.'
He hid his tablet and slid his pen back into his pocket. 'Well this does seem pretty clear cut. She said the same things from word to word. There doesn't seem to be anything to report here. Unless you want to press charges.'
	'No, It's alright.'
	'Well then' He wiggled his well groomed mustache. 'Encourage her to trim her nails and you should sleep on the other side of the bed.'
	'Sorry for taking your time.'
	'It's my job, Cheers'

He heard familiar claws clinking towards his screen. Orono bursted in and hugged him and the bed in one massive show of affection.
	'They didn't tell me anything, I didn't know if you were even alive.' She didn't let go.
	'Ouch, a little less pressure please.' She released him from the hug and rested her arms on his sides and hovered above him. She was still completely covered in blood.
	'There's blood on you.'
	'I know, I know... There's blood on the ceiling, the fridge-'
	'Orono, everything is alright' He hugged her head. 'We can leave now, I need you to carry me to the drug kiosk.'
	She smiled faintly through the caked blood on her face. 'I'll get you there, anywhere.'
	'Thanks, you seen my phone?' He looked around the bed.

'Yeah, I know it's a lot of blood but it's all mine... I already told you it was an accident. I'm alright now. She doesn't handle blood well, that's why I'm calling you. Alright, thanks, bye.' Tommy shut his phone and turned to the lady on the counter.
	'You have really big nail clippers? Her size?' She looked back at Orono carrying him.
	'Yeah I see you might need those.' She looked at the two.
	'And something that knocks her out properly, she's been having sleep issues.'
	'I'll see what I can find' She proceeded to the back wall.
	Tommy turned to look at Orono 'There won't be any blood there when we get back, okay?' She pressed her snout against him.
	'OH! and I'll take one of those toothbrushes as well' He added hastily.

Orono opened her apartment room slowly, still carrying Tommy. She was afraid to look in. He flipped the light switch and there was no trace of the blood. Even the bedsheets were changed and neatly made. He petted her neck to calm her.
	'See?'
	She nodded and gave him a small smile.
	'Now shower' He pointed her into the bathroom. She did as ordered.
	'Put me down and get into the shower.' She lowered him on the plastic shower bench.
She pulled her pajama pants and her underwear off and threw them in the corner. Tommy fiddled with the shower knobs and set a hot shower for her. He got a bit of water on him from the stream. Orono was embarrassed and looked at him for more guidance.
	He looked at her right back. 'close your eyes and sit down.' He pulled the toothbrush from his pocket. 'I'll do the rest.'

She took a step into the shower and sat down facing him. She closed her eyes and leaned towards him. The dried blood started come off and colored the floor. He started petting and brushing her scales to get the blood out of the grooves. He meticulously brushed through her upper body with the toothbrush until he couldn't find a speck of red on her. They had spent an hour in silence. She only gently rocked from side to side as he changed sides. There was no trace of blood anywhere now.
	'You can open your eyes now.' He gently petted her head.
She didn't open her eyes but pushed her head into his lap. Tommy turned the shower off. She raised her arms around him.
	'Orono. Tell me a joke.'
	'Why?'
	'I just want to know if you're still in shock'
	'I don't think I am, I feel good.'
	'Okay, are you okay me cutting your nails?'
	'It's okay.' She pulled him off the bench on to the floor. He sat between her thighs, facing away from her on the wet floor. Orono extended her hand from behind him and spread her claws. 'All yours, go for it.'
	He grabbed her claw and started clipping them with a large cutter.

He clipped her final toenail after much effort.
	'Done! We can sleep now!' He sounded victorious.
	Orono hugged tightly against her. 'You did a good job.' She brushed her new claws all over his front.
	'Now pick me up and We'll try those sleeping pil-' She had slowly pushed her hand into his pants. Tommy seized up. Orono hummed deeply into his ear. He realized he had an erection the whole time.
	Orono softly whispered in his ear 'Tommy... Wouldn't this feel right?' She gently touched him.
	'I- I don't think we should.' He gasped.
	She nuzzled against his neck and blew hot air from her nostrils. 'I know, I'm not in my right mind.' She nibbled his neck. 'Tell me to stop.'
He opened his mouth but the night had worn him down and this felt amazing release to the heavy stress and pain. He let out a silent squeak. Orono started pulling his wet shorts off. He felt he should protest but he just kept his mouth open. She pressed him tightly against her belly scales and added oil on her hands. He could hear her heavy breathing as she started massaging his privates. She carefully pumped him with her large clawed hands. Orono enjoyed the twitches she could massage out of him. She paced him harder, biting him softly on the shoulder in excitement. She drooled on him. She felt him tense up. She stopped right at the peak and let him experience the orgasm. He rocked in her lap as she gently pointed him away and held him. Tommy felt his nerves burn and relaxed in her lap. He tried to catch his breath. Orono turned on the shower handle and gently cleaned him up with warm water.

Orono carried them to the bed. She held her naked body against his. Orono had returned to her heaven. Tommy couldn't resist anymore, he was too tired and this felt too comfortable. There was a white plastic bottle next to the bed. Tommy opened it and took one of huge pills.
	'Here.' He put it in her hand. She didn't say anything and swallowed it. She hugged him one last time. Minute later Tommy could feel her grip loosening and her muscles losing their tenseness they always had. She seemed completely sedated, her jaws parted and her tongue flopped out. He didn't know if he should feel pity or be happy for her.

'Tommy'
He could feel hot air from Orono's snout warming his ear. She petted him. He decided to play sleep. He saw sun setting behind the closed shades. They had royally fucked up their sleeping schedule.
	'I feel wonderful' She added quietly 'I love you.' Her snout began to roam his skin.
She disappeared under the giant blanket, he knew exactly where this was going. The question was if he wanted to stop her. He had tried to avoid the sex but she seemed to be determined to get him. The friend helping her with depression had disappeared and a lover she wanted please had appeared. He didn't fear her appearance anymore and even found her hips enticing. He could feel her teeth on his thigh. The urge was there and he couldn't control his body. The way she felt was too much. She cradled the half erect penis in her mouth. Her teeth held it from the base. She couldn't seal her mouth to suck but she could massage him with all the soft bits. Tommy watched the blanket mountain slowly rock up and down. She was making it very hard for him not to yell out loud. She curled her tongue around him and made him suffer faster. He was gripping the sheets from the sensation. She gripped his buttocks with both hands and pushed him deeper. That was enough for Tommy. Stars in his eyes. The burning relaxation hit him hard. Orono lapped him up. Tommy dreaded the encounter with the blanket shark as it swam towards him. He felt her crawling on top him. The blanket ended and a wide grin emerged. She placed herself on him, he wouldn't be able to escape her now.
	'Evening' She happily announced.
Tommy looked at her, still spent. 'I just wanted to-' he took a breath '-To help you with your depression. I'm not sure if this is even moral at this point.'
	'I've altered the relationship' She grinned 'Pray I don't alter it more.'
	'I appreciate the jokes but you are dodging.'
	She narrowed her eyes 'You fucked it up, you made all the wrong choices and you are now something I want to have for myself for the rest of my life and not someone I can be friends with.' She snarled her teeth at him.
	'I feel conflicted about this.'
	'I've noticed' She poked his nose with her talon and raised her eye ridge sarcastically. 'You've successfully fucked my depression in the ass. Can I interested you in something else now?' She tilted her head and cocked her hips.
	A smile crept up on Tommy's face. Orono smiled back at him.
	'Few days ago, I would have never seen myself having an argument with giant Dino girl who had given me blow job seconds before.' He brushed her cheek affectionately.
	'Yeah, about that. I'm still hungry, you want to go out for dinner?'

She somehow dragged him into a fancy dress restaurant. He didn't even have a suit but she had bough him one on the way there. She looked completely different from her usual self. She looked like a high class lady with an expensive black dress and accessories. For some reason, she even had black lipstick. The difference was so great Tommy was still shell-shocked and glossing over the fancy menu with glazed eyes.
	'What happened?'
	She broke her character with one those perverted feral smiles of hers 'Don't worry, it's a cover' She winked at him. 'I hear they serve pretty good steaks here.'
	'Uh, um.' He tried get his brain working so he could read the menu.
The waiter came to them and politely asked if they had made their choices. He was still shuffling through the menu to find something. Orono snatched it and gave both to the waiter.
	'He will take the "Embee'S'Lout" I'll have the "Norels'Nen". Surprise us with the wine' She gave him a sincere smile. She towered over the waiter with her good posture. The waiter seemed to blush a bit and he gave a Tommy pitying look.
	Tommy leaned in and whispered 'What the shit? was that french?'
	She leaned at him and whispered. 'They don't serve terrestrial meat here.'
	'What did you order me?' He continued.
	'It's space chicken.'
	'What.'
	'It's supposed to have an aphrodisiac effect' She giggled quietly. 'Don't worry I'm sure you'll like it.'
	'Right... What did you order?'
	'Space cow.'
	'So we are eating alien wildlife today?'
	'Well I'm pretty sure both of them are domesticated' She leaned out and kept smiling.

She kept eying him and biting her finger like she was trying keep herself from jumping him right there. Tommy gave her a concerned stare. She winked at him. The way she acted made him feel very confident and masculine. There was something about a large and a dangerous female vying for your attention that made him tickle.
	'How do I look.' She pulled her dress down a bit.
	'You look like a proper man eater' Tommy grinned like an idiot.
	She tried to say something but she had to use all her willpower not to laugh out loud.

The waiter brought them their steaming piles of meat and a wine with a name that none of them could spell it right. Orono seemed pleased with her plate and she almost drooled on it. Tommy tested his and the meat did actually taste like chicken, a bit. He kept eating the thing and was pretty satisfied with it. He noticed Orono was writing something on a napkin. She gave him a quick glance and slid the napkin to him. She resumed her eating. This seemed ominous to Tommy. Did she firebomb his apartment? Was the food poisoned? Had she taken his grandmother hostage? She gave him an upward glance whilst eating her steak, she was clearly waiting him to read it. The napkin was turned down, he turned it up. "Humor me, It's a fantasy of mine." Tommy immediately gave her a confused look, but she acted like she didn't even notice and kept dissecting her food. He stored the napkin in his pocket.
He felt a breeze in his crotch. She had opened his buttons with her feet and was pulling his underwear down. Tommy's eyes widened in shock, they were seated in the middle of a crowded restaurant. She had managed to get hold his penis and tried to arouse it with a gentle massage.
	'How's your food? I wasn't sure you'd like it.' She had such a perfect poker face that he momentarily thought someone else was doing this.
	'I'm pretty those long things on your plate are space cock legs' Her upper lip twitched as she subdued her grin. She was having success under the table as he kept stiffening despite his best effort not to.
	Tommy didn't have a poker face and she could see everything from his face 'Yeah, i- it does taste a lot like chicken.'
	She changed her posture a bit. There was now two legs working on him. She kept watching intently his face, like she wanted to record his suffering.
	Tommy tried to keep eating and not give her the satisfaction, but she seemed to enjoy the resistance more. Her tongue seemed to move about her mouth, like she was trying to taste him.
	'What do you want to do after?' She inquired with a sincerity.
	'I think we-' he steadied himself '-We could watch a movie.'
	'Yeah I think that could be fun.' She nonchalantly retorted.
Tommy was now tensing up and twitching involuntary, it seemed a bit like he was having a minor seizure. Orono could feel him coming to the end and aimed him skillfully away from them. She started scribbling on another napkin while her toes dexterously packed him back in and closed his buttons. Tommy was white knuckled and folded over his meal. He stayed that way a while and then lifted himself, wiping sweat from his forehead. Orono pushed another napkin to him. He lazily turned it. There was a big heart with words "Thanks" and "Sorry" written inside it. He looked at her again. She gave him playfully narrowed eyes.

The restaurant was emptying as it's closing time neared. Orono had ordered desserts and more drinks to their table. Tommy was feeling a bit tipsy and Orono's company was good. She had drank three times as much, but there was no sign of her tipsiness, she seemed quite sober. She was staring at him again. It was one of those ominous stares. She looked like she had a thermonuclear bomb and was prepared to use it.
	'I'm afraid to ask.' he answered to her stare.
Suddenly she looked very dire and uncomfortable. Like she might burst into tears. She swallowed it and returned to her stony expression. She started digging trough her handbag.
	'I would actually be relieved if you pulled a gun on me.' He smiled but she just looked concerned.
She found what she was looking for and closed it in her fist. It had to be something relating to the ptsd, maybe grenade shrapnel?. Orono gave him a pleading look and placed her closed fist on the table. She had trouble opening it like she didn't want to. Tommy placed his hand on her large fist and gave a reassuring nod. She smiled uneasy and released her grasp on the item. It was something small and black. She spun it around and set it towards him. It was a small black box with with a hinged top half. Tommy was confused, was the shrapnel inside the jewelry bo-. Tommy raised his eyes slowly to Orono's. Surely this wasn't what it obviously was. She had her mouth covered and her predatory eyes cautiously surveyed him.
	'It's surely not...' He lightly touched the box and it opened with a pop. In it were two gold rings with an extreme size difference.

	'You are completely retarded, you asshole' She slapped Tommy down on her bed and came down on him like feral animal.
	'Oh fuck you, you sprang that shit on me with no warning. I just answered with more of the same.' He tried to hold her head from biting him.
	'No I just showed you some shiny rings. You got us actually fucked! You giant retard ape.'
	'Thank god for 24/7 registration offices you giant lizard.'
Orono started crying on him. He took her head on his chest and petted him.
	'Y- you are insane, w- why would you do this shit to me.' She couldn't stop the tears. 'I'm so fucked now. Fuck, I'm so goddamn happy.' She bawled into his new shirt.
	'Calm down. You're hysterical.'
	'You are fucked, so fucked' She laughed at him. 'I love you. I can now love you.' She ripped Tommy's shirt open and slathered her tongue all over him.
	Tommy took hold of her head 'Orono.' She looked longingly back. He pulled her into a kiss but she just managed to scratch his lips with her teeth.
	'Eh, I'm not sure what I expected.' Tommy bit his lower lip.
	Orono backed away embarrassed 'Uhm, sorry. Never done that before.'
Unintimidated, she pulled her black dress off. She was wearing stockings with a garter-belt. She clipped her panties off and rested herself carefully on him.
	'Just be careful, I don't want broken hip bones okay?' He gently moved his hand along her thigh. 'How much do you weigh anyway?'
	She appreciate him taking notice of her size and presented him with a friendly snarl 'Just a bit over three hundred and half.'
	'So twice my weight.'
	'Kilos, you caveman.'
	'Uh. So...'
	'About 4.4 times your weight.' She let her weight drop more on him to show off her mass.
He looked to her thighs on his sides. They were as thick as he was. He could see the contours of her muscles under her scaled skin.
	'Your body is built like a tank.'
	'Yeah, let me introduce her to you. I'm sure you'll get along just fine.' She yanked his trousers off along with his underwear. His cock brushed against her nether. Tommy realized the sheer size difference between them. Orono was sizing him up too.
	'I think I might be a bit inadequate for this' He glanced between her legs.
	'You're not' She gave him a grin and slowly lowered herself on him. Tommy slipped in easily. Her insides had a rough and bumpy quality to them that took him completely by surprise. He grabbed her thighs, knuckles white.
	'You okay?' Orono seemed surprised by his reaction 'This isn't your first time right?'
	'You have a cool texture there' He tried no to move too much 'Take it slow or I won't last long.'
	'You lasting long isn't the objective here. It's how much twitching I get out of you.' She grinned at his situation and twisted her hips and tensed her vaginal muscles.
Her walls suddenly crushed on him. He couldn't even pull himself out.
	'Relax, I'm kidding. I'll give you a smooth ride.' She fell down on him and nibbled on his ear. She released him and only applied moderate pressure. She slowly rocked on top of him. Her insides brushing along his length at a comfortable speed.
	'This okay?' she softly whispered in his ear.
	'Y- Yeah' He bared his teeth as the sensation tickled him. She continued for a while until Tommy began tensing again. 'Fuck-' He tried to lift her off him. She noticed his efforts and raised herself off.
	'What's wrong?' He could hear concern in her voice.
	'No- I just don't want finish before I get you off.' He was still trying to calm himself. 'Can- Can I do something to get you to... Pop?' He brushed her neck.
	Orono giggled quietly 'Tommy.' She continued with a sweet voice. 'Did you forget there's two different species from two different planets here?' She gently bumped her nose against his cheek. 'I have no idea what an orgasm is.'
	He was genuinely confused 'What do you mean? You mean you never had one?'
	'No, you caveman. I'm saying my body doesn't have hardware for one. It's physically impossible for you to give me an orgasm.' She tilted her head at him. 'I appreciate your concern though.'
	'What. But why would you have sex then? What do you get out of it?'
	'Really? Even you don't have sex just for that. I get pleasure from it, you doofus. Intimacy, laughs, smiling all the good stuff. My brain does give me rewards for trying to procreate too, you know'
	'Sorry, it just seems oddly foreign to me. It shouldn't but it does. I can't imagine not having orgasms.' He looked his penis under her 'Are you getting anything from this?'
	'Yeah, I'm getting you.' She gently bit her jaws around  his throat, and twirled her tongue around his skin. Sensation hit Tommy hard and he completely forgot what he was going to say for a moment. He had to grab her lower jaw with his thumb inside her mouth to stop her.
	'Orono, I meant physical pleasure. The tickling and things.'
	'Uhm.' She paused and scratched her head. She looked apologetic 'Sorry, the nubs that do that to me are- well... further in.' She pointed a point in her lower body.
	'I... I could give you oral and massage you clitoris-' He realized Orono looking at him again, slightly disappointed and amused. She gave him a sympathetic smile.
	'I'm sure the earth women would appreciate your efforts but, There's nothing sensitive around there and I'm not sure what a clitoris is.' She looked at her own crotch. 'Wouldn't that be really painful? Having sensitive parts outside?' She turned back to him. He seemed gloom. 'I didn't hurt you? Did I?'
	'No- I- I'm just sorry for being such a mood killer.'
	'This isn't fun for you?' She grinned to to cheer him up. 'I'm having fun just being naked and on top of you.' She brushed her hands over him excitement. 'I mean... We are loving each other. We are naked in a darkened room and talking things we can't talk in public.' She gave him wide eyed predatory stare from the dark. Tommy realized her eyes glew slightly. 'And you are there. Laying about like an open buffet for me.' he felt a spike of pure panic. She grinned and narrowed her eyes.
	'Sorry, I enjoy manipulating you too much.' She gave him a friendly rub on the chest.
	'Yes, I've noticed.'
She was concerned. 'You okay with that?'
	'I don't mind it, I know you're safe and reasonable.'
	'Nah, you thought I was going to eat you.' She grinned smugly. 'I felt that twitch.' She had her tongue out like she had tasted something good.
	'You ever seen dinosaur horror flick?'
	'Nah, but I've been told I look like one.'
	'I saw one as a ten year old.'
She covered her mouth 'Oh poor you, let me muddle up your psyche some more.' She repositioned herself and started licking her way down his body.
Her tongue had smooth and harsh parts on it and she was clearly aware of them as she meticulously made her way down. She slowed down at his belly button, clearly fascinated what it was. She gave him an inquisitive glance and prodded the bellybutton with her tongue.
	'Uh, it's a, um. It's just a leftover from birth.' She looked confused and shrugged her shoulders. She continued her way down. A wide smile stretched on her face as she had the half masted penis in front of her face. She breathed hot air on it. It twitched as it began stiffen again. She looked over it to Tommy. She had a subdued perverted smile on her again.
	'Would you like to... ”Pop” on my face?' She gave him a deft brush.
	'I'd rather not.'
	'You sure? It seems to be pretty popular.' She continued with a sweet voice 'I wouldn't mind. You can't degrade me.'
	'I love coming in you.'
Her face turned into a sweetest smile like she had discovered something indescribably cute. She slowly imprisoned his penis with her tongue and brought it to her mouth. Started gently working on him. Tommy was tensing and twitching as she applied the different sides of her tongue. She really got into it and Tommy could only describe her actions as if she was intently trying to solve a puzzle. She carefully egged the pleasure from him. But right before she about to give final and decimating brush of her tongue, Tommy grabbed her snout like he was in pain. She turned her eyes to him trying project her question with them.
	'Fuck. Let's not end yet.'
She gave him an approving smile and carefully untangled her tongue from him. She brushed the drool and bodily fluids from her mouth.
	'I love how final orgasms are.' She couldn't contain her excitement over his pleasant suffering. 'It's so easy to give you fireworks and pleasure. It feels like killing a prey in a single moment of violence.' She licked her teeth. 'And then there's the twitching after... I can't get over how much that turns me on.' Tommy tried to steady his breathing and gave her a glance. She bared her teeth 'Ready to end it all?' She gently ran her talon across his length.
	'I've got an idea.'
Her eyes lit up with predatory glee.
	'Get that dildo of yours.'
She tilted her head.
	'It's for you.' he added.
She got up and quickly skipped into the bathroom and back. She narrowed her eyes with realization. 'You want a show?'
	'Well yes and no.' he motioned her to get down on the bed. 'Let me show you.' He took the giant dildo and placed it upwards between his thighs.
	'Simulated sex?' She smiled knowingly at him.
	'Get on me.'
	She vaulted her leg over him and positioned over it. 'like this?'
	'Now turn around.' He petted her side.
She seemed little confused but turned herself around. Tommy now had view of her shapely ass. Her tail ran over his chest and next to his head. She gave him a playful slap with it. Tommy pulled her down gently.
	'Go for it.'
She lowered herself and the pleasure spread over her face. She kept watching him with one eye. She started riding the silicone cock with a steady pace. Tommy watched her enjoy it. He pushed her tail to the side and lifted himself to a sitting position. He grabbed the sides of her hips. She enjoyed the simulation.
	'How do you feel about anal?'
She suddenly stopped and turned to look at him. She grinned.
Tommy guided himself to the junction where her butt met with the base of her tail. As Orono felt this she gently pressed down and he penetrated her. Tommy gasped at the sensation. She was doubly penetrated now. It felt wild and pleasurable. Without asking she started riding herself on them. Her ass gripped Tommy tightly and pumped his whole length as she hit the base with every bounce. She was now breathing erratically.  She could feel him tensing up and grabbing her hips harder. She started to make exhausted yells and twitching her muscles. She egged him on. Tommy was confused, was she having an orgasm? He couldn't keep it up any longer. He slammed in her and let up. She Felt him. She screamed, arched her back and gripped the bedsheets. Tommy could feel her contracting around him and milking him. It felt so right to him.

Tommy almost fell asleep as the exhaustion washed over him. Orono spread herself next to him on the bed. She hummed and massaged the burning sensation from him.
	'Well? I liked that.' She dabbed him on the cheek.
	Tommy tried to lift his head. 'I thought you couldn't-'
	'You said you wanted a show' She gave him small grin and bumped him with her snout.
Tommy fell back into the pillow. She grabbed his ring finger and placed her own ring finger next to it. She tilted her head and admired the golden rings on them. She quickly glanced at the heaving wreck of her husband.
	'You wanna watch a movie?'
