EXPLICIT - Diving Bell

	The sea - as strong as anything else in the world, and capable of incredible feats of destruction. The rolling blue-green waves, each one dotted with stark seafoam, always carries with it some form of adventure - whether it be tales of woe from across the shores, bountiful catches with each cast of a net, or the various sights and sounds that dot the sky in the evenings, the sea has always been a provider of greatness. With each pass of the tide, the sands become smooth and anew - perfect for someone that wants to scour them for treasures untold.
	“C’mon, c’mon… there’s gotta be something other than a sand dollar in here…” A fox walks the shores - his fur the color of rust and his hair as dark as coal. At the moment, he was gazing through the billions and billions of sand grains, looking for some sort of prize… For a moment, he lets out a sigh and plops his rump against a mound of wet sand. This wasn’t getting him anywhere, was it? “Great… Well, least th’ view’s somethin’ to look at.”
	With barely another word, the fox gazes out into the wild blue yonder, his eyes quickly locking onto a wave that was starting to make its way towards him - nothing too big, though, there was no reason for him to run just yet, after all. In no time, he lets a small smirk plant itself across his face at the feeling of those cool waters running across his legs. He had been out here for a good part of the day already, and there wasn’t really much for him to do otherwise.
	He sits there for a moment longer before leaning back against the sand, his back landing on the wet bank behind him - his eyes quickly locking themselves against one of the errant gulls that were gliding through the air. Always carefree and happy with everything they’re doing… He’ll be like that, too, someday. A moment or two passes before he sits up and brushes himself off as best he could - sand had a tendency to get absolutely everywhere, after all. With that, he gets out a sigh, and looks out to the ocean once again.
	For a moment, he simply scans the waters before taking in a deep breath…
	“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!” With that, the fox yells outward towards those roaring waters, his lungs quickly finding themselves empty a few moments later. He quickly lets out a small gasp before planting a smirk onto his face… Yelling at the sea - always good for relieving stress. With that, he lets out a small sigh before turning back towards the-
	A temple. That was what was staring him in the face - a temple built into the farthest wall of rock. For a moment or two, the fox simply stands there, his eyes wide and his hair being whipped about by the wind. This was either going to be the best impulse of his life, or it was going to be a one-way trip to a death sentence. Either way, the fox smirks before starting on his way towards that wall of rock - as well as the mountains of loot he was bound to find inside.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	It was a cold - not cold enough to be uncomfortable, but just enough that the hairs on the back of his neck were starting to stand on end. For the moment, the only thing that the fox could see were the various bits of blue and gray tile that lined the place - the original stone having been long-since replaced for beauty’s sake. With each step, the sound of foot-on-tile meets the air, his head quickly finding itself on a swivel.
	“Phew… how ‘n the hell did I not find this place before…? If there ain’t somethin’ shiny in here fer’ me t’ find, then I’ll eat my pants.” At that, his hand quietly finds itself against his leg, the soft, somewhat sandy fabric against his fluff filling his palm a moment later. This was going to be something interesting at the very least. For a moment or two, he simply continues to look about the place, his feet meeting the tile beneath him with each step. Nothing that looks like a treasure chamber yet… it must be farther in. With barely a word crossing his lips, he simply continues on through the halls.
	A quick turn and a jaunt down a hall later, the only thing he sees is more blue tile, pillars, and a pool of the clearest water he had ever seen in his life - ocean notwithstanding, of course. At the sight of that clear, blue water, his eyes immediately grow wide.
	“Woooah… now iffin’ that ain’t pretty…” With that, he quietly starts to make his way forward, stopping just short of the water’s edge. He quietly peers over into the water with barely a word, his eyes quietly trailing their way around the edge of that clear fluid… For a moment or two, he simply stands there, his eyes finding their way towards the center of that pool. “Shit… now it ain’t worth it, but it sure is nice…” He presses a palm to his neck at that point, the feeling of grit beneath his fingers bringing him back to his senses a moment later.
	He lets out a small sigh before taking a seat against the rim of that pool, his feet dangling into the water a second or two later. The words “sea water” immediately pop into his mind - he knows this stuff, he was around it all day! For a moment, his eyes drift down to the bottom of that pool, locking onto something dark at the very bottom… Was that treasure, or…? He shakes his head at that point - he wasn’t going to leave empty handed, after all. With that, he stands up from his seat at the edge of the pool, and bends his knees… With any luck, whatever it was that was down there was going to be his.
	Just as his feet leave the ground, the sound of water splashing about causes him to open his eyes - only for them to close a split second later from the feeling of something smacking against his front with a dull, wet thump. Immediately, his rump hits the tile flooring with a thud before he lets out a bit of a groan. A split second later, another voice echoes his sentiments, this one sounding a bit more on the feminine side than anything.
	He immediately opens his eyes at the sound of that, his gaze locking onto something across from him a split second later - dark skin, six arms… braided red hair… He blinks at that point - a spider…? What in the world was she doing here…?
	“Er… hey, you, uh… you good?”
	“Oof… that did… not feel good at all.” Almost immediately, the fox’s ears perk up - female, from the sound of her voice. “Are you alright?” With that, the form in front of him perks itself up, showing off a quartet of bright red eyes right on her forehead. The fox blinks for a moment or two at the sight, and tilts his head to the side.
	“Uh… yeah, uhm… yeah, yeah, ‘m good. You ain’t hurt, are ya’?” The being in front of him, the spider, simply uses one of her hands ro reach up to the back of her head to give it a bit of a rub before pushing herself to her feet and closing the distance between the two of them. At once, she holds out one of her hands towards the fox, who plants a small smirk onto his face before using it to pull himself up from the ground.
	“Well, now… what’s a pretty li’l thing like you doin’ in a place like this?” Once he’s on his feet, the fox shifts his weight to one side before planting his palm on his hip - only to drop it a moment later from the sort of “scraped” feeling on his palm… Just enough to be annoying - of course. The spider across from him smirks a bit at that point before crossing two sets of her arms.
	“Well, I would think an Empress of the Sea would be right to be in one of her own temples, hm?” And with that, the spider simply plants a bit of a smirk onto her face - at which point the fox quietly crosses his arms and raises one of his brows… Something smells fishy, and it certainly wasn’t that pool in the middle of the room.
	“Well, ‘scuse me, then. Didn’t mean t’ intrude or nothin’.” And with that, the fox simply starts to make his way back towards the entrance to that room, his back kept towards the doorway and a bit of a humble smirk plastered on his visage. Suddenly, the spider holds up one of her hands, her finger pointing straight towards the fox’s form.
	“Ah, ah, ah! Now, now, there’s no need for you to leave so soon… Of course, you are free to leave, if you would like… But-” She leans forward for a moment or two at that point. “I wish to see you again. Something tells me that you are going to be… interesting, eh?” With that, a bit of a chuckle escapes her throat before she stands up once again. The fox blinks for a moment or two before responding in kind, a chuckle escaping his own throat.
	“Hehe, well, now… I don’t s’ppose that’s all that fair, isn’t it? Ain’t it common courtesy t’ introduce yerself b’fore askin’ someone home fer supper?” And with that, the fox simply presses his palms to his hips - this was getting interesting rather quickly, wasn’t it? The spider quietly winks one of her four eyes, and presses two of her palms against her side.
	“Oh, I suppose that would be somewhat polite, yes? I am called ‘Arachne’. Arachne Warren, at your behest.” And with that, the spider gives the fox a rather low sort of mock-bow before righting herself once again. “And you are…?” She trails off at that point, one of her hands quietly going out towards the fox in a sort of ‘beckoning’ movement. The fox simply smirks for a moment or two before letting out a bit of a sigh.
	“Heh… ‘Behest’... no need t’ sound uptight w’ me, li’l missy. Name’s Gabe. You can find out m’last name when y’ see me again, eh?” And with that, the fox leans to his left, and plants his elbow against the side of the wall, the tile there feeling somewhat coarse on his arm. The spider lets out a bit of a chuckle at the sound of that before crossing all of her arms once again.
	“Well, Gabe, I think that this warrants another meeting, eh? I want to see you tomorrow. Around noon at the shoreline, yes? Do not keep me waiting, then.” And with that, the spider gives the fox a bit of a wink before quickly springing herself into the air, and flipping herself end over end into the water! The fox’s eyes widen for a split second before the sound of water - or, rather, the lack of it - fills his ears. At that, a puff of air escapes through his nose… This was definitely going to be interesting.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	The day had come and gone just as quickly as it had before - each minute creeping into the next with barely anything else for him to do. Thankfully, with the glaring sun above his head, there wasn’t much going on, anyway. The fox simply lets out a small content sigh before planting his rump on the warm sand once again, this time making sure that there weren’t things poking up out of that warm material - no need for a stick to poke him in the butt, after all. For a moment, the only thing that was plastering itself against his senses was the sound of the waves crashing against the shoreline… This was the life, no doubt.
	The next thing he knew, water was filling his sinuses.
	“Koff-kaff-kaff! Guh!” And with that, the fox stands up from his spot on the beach, his form now drenched with sea water. A quick look-around reveals the only thing around being the sand, the surf, and the sky above him.
	“Hehe… careful, now - I don’t think you want to drown, no?” With that, the spider launches herself out from the water, a trail of that clear blue-green sea trailing along with her before she lands on the bank with a bit of a flourish. At the sight of her, the fox simply plants a smirk onto his face - it was that kind of game, was it?
	“Well… you do realize this means war, don’t it?” And with that, the fox smirks once again before planting his rump back onto the sand. The spider, on the other hand, simply presses a pair of her palms against her hip before making her way onto the sand proper. The fox raises a brow at that point, his legs quickly stretching themselves out towards the water for the time being - if you’re gonna sit down, at least make sure you’re relaxed, right?
	“And… I take it that you and I aren’t even fit for war. Better a skirmish, hm?”
	“Well, depends - you keep that splashin’ up, and yer’ in fer’ a world o’ fun, ain’t’cha?” And with that, the fox pulls one of his legs up closer to himself before planting one of his elbows onto his knee cap - his chin quickly filling his upturned palm a moment later. The spider simply smiles before making her way over to the fox’s side and planting her rump against the warm sand. At once, she lets out a content sigh…
	“Ah…”
	“Ain’t it a beaut’?” With that, the fox gazes out towards the waves, a content smile plastered onto his face.
	“Always. Something that I do not think that I will ever get tired of - from above or below.” And with that, the spider quietly leans back against the sand, her palms pressing into that warm dust. The fox gives her a sidelong glance for a moment or two - she wasn’t wrong, of course.
	“So I hear. Tell me somethin’, would ya’?” And with that, the fox turns his head towards the spider, their gazes meeting a split second later.
	“That being?”
	“Well, I was wonderin’ somethin’... It ain’t as beautiful down there as it is up ‘ere, right?” The fox ends up leaning back onto the sand once again, this time tucking his hands underneath the back of his head for the time being.
	“...I don’t follow.” The spider tilts her head at the sound of that, and glances at the fox on the ground.
	“Well, just… I see all’a this everyday.” And with that, the fox starts to slowly flail his arms about for a moment or two before resting them back on his stomach. “How different is it under there? Under that water?” And with that, he looks to the spider for a moment or two before letting out a sigh. The spider raises a brow at the sound of that.
	“Well, now… I did not think you were one to wax poetic.” And with that, the spider simply leans back onto her back next to the fox, a pair of her arms going back to cup her head against the sand, while another pair rests against her bare stomach. “I figured you were more of the ‘strong’ type - the kind of person that wanted to make a quick coin for nothing.”
	“Can ya’ blame me?” The fox plants a toothy grin onto his face at that point, his head turning to meet the spider’s. At which point, the spider lets out a bit of a chuckle.
	“I do not think I can, no. It is… beautiful.” At the spider’s words, the fox raises a brow.
	“Which one?”
	“Does it matter, really?” And with that, the spider glances over to the fox for a moment. “Everything is beautiful, if you look at it all in a certain light, no?” The fox lays there for a moment or two longer before opening his mouth… Though, he closes it a few seconds later.
	“I… suppose you’ve got a point, don’t ya’?” And with that, he sits up in the sand.
	“I do have a bit of wisdom, despite my looks, Gabe.” With that, the spider sits up as well, her multiple arms quickly flailing about to brush all the bits of sand and particulate off of herself. The fox simply smiles for a moment before letting out a sigh.
	“Mercer.” The spider blinks for a moment at the sound of that - what did he just say?
	“I’m… sorry?”
	“My last name - you said you wanted it, right? It’s Mercer.” The spider simply sits there for a moment or two, processing what he had just said… By the time everything had run its course through her head, a small smile plants itself onto her cheeks - this was even better than the day before, wasn’t it?
	“Well, well, well, an interesting name for an interesting man…” And with that, the spider stands up from her spot on the sand, a smile on her face and a pair of her hands against her hips. “Well, I’ve decided - I want you to come with me below the waves.” With that, the spider holds out one of her hands towards the fox, who looks at the palm in front of his face with a pair of wide eyes.
	“I… wh...wait, huh?” The spider simply rolls her four eyes, and reaches down to pick up the fox from the ground - a few seconds later, the two of them are moving towards the waves with the fox looking a bit dumbfounded from the spider’s sudden audacity - hopefully, this wasn’t going to be something that he was going to regret later.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	With barely a word, the fox and the spider make their way up from the salty water below them, the fox letting out a gasp for fresh air once his head pops above the water. Almost immediately, a dark rock floor below him rushes up to meet his face - his front quickly flops onto that floor with barely another word. The spider simply lets out a bit of a chuckle as she half-walks, half-dances her way to her feet.
	“Hehe… welcome to my humble abode, Gabe.” And with that, the spider turns towards the floor-bound fox, and gives him a small smile. “Pardon the atmosphere - there are only so many places that have good enough air down here, after all.” And with that, the spider quietly makes her way in through the cave’s entrance. The fox, on the other hand, simply lets out a sigh once he gets his breath back, and pushes himself to his feet.
	“Heh… hah… warn a guy ‘bout how deep a place like this is, yeah?” And with that, the fox starts to follow the spider’s lead, his footsteps echoing against the dark walls. Before long, the fox turns a corner, only to see the spider sitting on her rump in the middle of a wide room, the various bits of furniture being only a few sets of rugs, crudely-made pillows, and a campfire in the very center. The fox’s brow rises for a moment or two before the spider smiles at him.
	“No need to be shy, then. Please, have a seat - make yourself comfortable.” The fox hesitates for a moment or two longer before making his way closer, his rump planting itself onto one of those pillows. The spider simply chuckles for a moment or two before leaning over to the side. She grabs a kettle, and places it onto the fire for the moment. “The tea will be ready soon, do not worry.”
	“Tea, huh? What kind?”
	“Why, the best kind I can find, of course.” And with that, the spider simply plants a smile onto her face once again. The fox furrows his brows at the sound of that, but otherwise sits there without another word. “So, tell me, Gabe, I take it that you are curious, yes?”
	“Well, ‘curious’ is puttin’ it lightly. Call me… intrigued more than anythin’, yeah?” With that, the fox leans towards the spider for a moment or two, a sly grin plastered on his face. The spider sits there with the same sort of look, only her face is burning with a bit of a blush - he knew a way with words, after all.
	“Well, mister intrigued, tell me - what is it that you want to know, hm?” And with that, the fox stands up from his spot on the floor.
	“Hehe… you don’t got two left feet, do ya’?” And with that, the fox holds his palm out towards the spider - she takes it a moment later, and pulls herself up.
	“Certainly not at all. The question, though, is do you?” And with that, the spider pulls the fox a bit closer before the two of them start to sway. For a moment the fox simply follows the spider’s lead - each step she takes, he matches with barely a thought. “Well, look at this - you can move yourself, hm?”
	“Well, o’ course. Lemme show ya’ how it’s done, now.” And with that, the fox starts to move and sway on his own, causing the spider to falter for a split second before she tries to match his movements - one two three, one two three… Before long, both of them are stepping to some unheard rhythm once again, each step being perfectly mirrored a split second later.
	“Tell me… did anyone ever tell you that you are the most handsome person in the world?” The spider leans in after their impromptu dance session comes to an end, where she plants a single one of her fingers onto the fox’s chest. The fox, on the other hand, simply plants a smirk onto his face before answering.
	“People’ve tried ‘n’ failed, ‘course none of ‘em had as much confidence ‘s you.” With that, the spider plants a small smile onto her face, a bit of a blush coloring her cheeks a moment later.
	“Well, with what you’re saying, you certainly have the confidence to back up your words, no?” And with barely another word, the two of them meet in the middle, and press their lips together in a soft, gentle kiss… It’s barely a second before the two of them separate - both with a bright red blush on their cheeks and a smile beaming through the redness.
	“Shit… might sound a bit corny, but I think I’m just a li’l bit in love, y’ know?” The spider simply smiles for the time being.
	“I think that I can say the same, if anything.” At the spider’s words, the fox lets out a small chuckle before rubbing the side of his neck.
	“Well… you mind iffin’ I get a taste?”
	“Hehe… only if you finish everything on your plate, hm?” With that, the fox plants another smirk onto his face before leaning forward once again - this time, his lips planting firmly against the spider’s own before trailing their way down to her chin… to her neck… to even her collar bone. “A-Ah… careful, now, Gabe…”
	“No need t’ be all tense and such… I’ve gotcha covered now…” And with that, the fox quietly trails his way down to the spider’s ample breasts, his lips quickly planting themselves against the outside of the spider’s swimsuit… A split second later, he brings his hand up to cup her flesh, his fingers quickly finding their way beneath that tight fabric. “Well, now… I think this’n’s gonna be fun…”
	“Hm… Well, do feel free to have as much fun as you’d like, would you please?” And with that, the spider simply gives the fox a bit of a wink before placing a pair of her palms against the sides of his face… “Here, let me get a bit more comfortable.” And with barely another word, she slowly guides the fox down to his knees before planting her palms behind her against the ground. The fox smirks from his spot against her cleavage before he uses one of his own hands to move the spider’s swimsuit away from what he wanted.
	A moment later, and he’s pressing his face against the spider’s chest once again, this time causing his tongue to swirl its way against her pert nipple. Almost immediately, the spider lets out a bit of a gasp at the feeling - one of her eyes closes from the sudden spike of pleasure. The entire time, the fox gives her a bit of a hum - that was the reaction he was hoping to see, if nothing else.
	“Heh… heh… hah… hah…” The spider ends up arching her back for a moment or two at that point, each pass of the fox’s tongue across her sensitive bud sends spike after spike of sheer ecstasy through her system. A moment later, though, the fox pulls off of the spider’s nip with an audible “pop!” sound. A moment later, he quickly switches to her other nipple, this time making sure to switch his hands around to squeeze and rub the one he was just at.
	By now, the spider was busy trying to keep herself under control as best as possible - though, it was getting harder and harder with each passing second…
	“Hah… goodness… I… guh…” For a second, the spider sits there squirming and shaking from the fox’s slick ministrations. Though, he quickly pulls away with another “pop”.
	“Hehe… hope ya’ don’t mind, but uh… I couldn’t really help myself.” With that, he leans back for a moment or two, his member quickly twitching itself outward. The spider’s eyes quietly go wide at the sight of his length, as well as at the sight of clear pre-cum dribbling out from his tip. The fox quietly lets out a chuckle at the sight of the spider’s reaction.
	“C’mon, it ain’t that bad, is it?” And with a cocky smirk on his face, he leans back in once more, this time kissing his way down from her pert breasts down towards her stomach… Though, after quietly settling himself between the spider’s legs, he lets out a small sigh before quietly lapping his tongue around her now-dripping folds. Almost immediately, the spider jumps at the feeling of his tongue lapping between her legs, each motion sending sparks up her spine once again.
	“G-Gah! Careful, please!” The fox looks up at that point, his brows raised - he didn’t hurt her, did he? A split second later, the spider plants a pair of her hands against the fox’s head, keeping him firmly planted between her legs. That answers that question. Without another word, he gets to licking and slurping once again, though makes sure to not go too fast just yet - there was still a lot he wanted to do, wasn’t there? A moment later, the spider lets out a shiver-filled moan before clamping her thighs around the fox’s head, stopping him from his sudden wriggling.
	She sits there for a moment or two more with her eyes crossed from the pleasure before she lets go, her breath like she had just run a marathon but a few moments before.
	“Hah… hah… hah.. H...huh… th… t-t-that was… I… wow.” And with that, the spider quietly leans back onto her back for the time being, her chest heaving up and down as she tries her best to catch her breath. The fox, on the other hand, simply smiles for a moment before quickly licking his face clean of the spider’s fluids…
	“Well, now… didn’t think of you as someone who just goes a round and gets all tuckered out, but… well, I don’t really mind, long as yer havin’ fun now.” And with that, the fox quietly plants a smirk onto his face - he was certainly having fun, if nothing else. The spider looks up from her spot on the ground for a moment or two before laying her head back down.
	“I… phew… may I please have a bit of time to collect myself?”
	“Take all the time ya’ need, now.” And with that, the fox lets out a small sigh before using his hands to wipe his face clean as best he can. “Do me a favor, though - roll over onto yer’ stomach, yeah? Wanna take care o’ ya’s all.” And with that, the fox leans forward a bit , and hooks his hand around the spider’s midsection for a moment. The spider, in a lust-induced haze, grumbles something incoherent, and flops over onto her front. At once, the fox lets out a small sigh before pressing his palms to the small of the spider’s back.
	“Hnn… that feels nice…” The spider lets out a content groan at that point as the fox quietly starts to rub and press his weight into the spider’s form. Soon, he starts to rub and press against her rump, then her thighs… Then back up to her rump once again, and soon to the middle of her back. Up and down, over and over again, each time pressing his weight into her rubbing. The spider simply lays there for a moment or two with all four of her eyes crossed… He certainly did have a way of keeping them both occupied, didn’t he?
	Before long, the fox simply smiles before making his way back down once more, this time making his way down to the spider’s lower thighs... then to her calves… And finally her feet and ankles. A moment or two later, he looks towards the spider’s face and plants a smirk on his own visage - she was enjoying herself alright, if that blissed-out look she’s got is any indication.
	“How ya’ feelin’ there?”
	“Hungh… keep going…” The spider’s speech sounds a bit slurred, but seems to be otherwise improving from what it was before - not that he minds, of course. Without another word, the fox lets out a small sigh before quietly bending the spider’s legs a bit - only at the knee, of course.
	“Can do, can do… lemme see if I can’t getcha’ a little bit more comfortable… ‘Sides, y’ deserve a little attention, don’tcha?” And with that, the fox quietly takes a hold of one of the spider’s feet, making sure to rest the other on his shoulder for the time being. The spider blinks for a moment or two at that feeling, and turns her head towards the fox for the time being.
	“Hm…? What are you…?” And with that, the fox quietly places one of the spider’s digits into his maw, immediately swirling his tongue around that wiggling appendage. Almost immediately, the spider’s eyes widen at the sight and the feeling - this was certainly… interesting, to say the very least. For a moment or two, a bit of a blush burns on her cheeks, causing the fox to smile around the digit in his mouth. A moment or two passes before the spider lets out a small sigh of relief… This felt… oddly relaxing, if nothing else.
	Soon enough, though, the fox pulls himself away, a small smile on his face. He quietly places the spider’s foot onto his free shoulder, and pulls the other one up to his face - almost immediately, he places the spider’s toe against his lips, as if kissing them. After a pair of small pecks on her toe, the fox quietly slips that digit into his mouth once again.
	“H-Hang on, hang on.” With that, the fox’s eyes widen at the spider’s words. He quickly pulls himself away just as the spider quietly flips herself over onto her back once again. After making sure that she was comfortable as she could be, she looks to the fox once again, and raises her foot to his face once more. Almost immediately, a small smile plants itself on his face before he lightly grabs the spider’s ankle once more.
	The fox quietly takes a seat once again at that point, his own legs splaying themselves outward with his member exposed to the air. With that, though, the spider’s brow raises itself upward before she looks to the fox.
	“Gabe, hand me your ankle, would you please?” At her words, the fox pulls her digit from his mouth.
	“Uh… what for?”
	“Well, give it to me and I’ll show you, hm?” A moment or two passes with the fox simply sitting there in hesitation, but otherwise, he quietly places his foot near the spider’s head. A moment passes before she quietly wraps a pair of her hands around the ankle, and brings it towards her face. Almost immediately, the fox’s eyes widen in realization - if she was doing what he thought she was doing…
	“You can’t exactly be the only one feeling nice here, can you?” And with barely another word, the spider quietly brings the fox’s foot a bit closer to her face before quietly planting a small kiss of her own on the very tip of his big toe. A moment later, and that big toe ends up in her own mouth - the fox quickly doing the same once more. In no time, both the spider and the fox start to enjoy their time together, every so often switching to different toes or an entirely new foot all together.
	Soon enough, the fox quietly pulls the spider’s foot away from his face with barely another word between them. After a quick poke on the side of her leg to get her attention, he speaks up.
	“Lay back again, would you please?” He speaks with his brow cocked upward for the moment, causing the spider to pull the fox’s own foot away from her face.
	“Hm? Well… I suppose I can do something like that, but only if you think that you know what you are doing, yes?” And with barely another word, she sets her legs down once again, and rolls onto her back for the time being. The fox smiles for a moment or two before pressing his palms against her back once again, this time making sure to move only as much as he needed to - there was no need for him to tire himself out doing too much, after all.
	The spider lets out a content sigh at that point before closing her four eyes and resting her forehead onto a pair of her arms - the others quietly splaying themselves outward to try and relax. The fox quietly lets out a small sigh before making sure that the spider was content and relaxed…
	“Hm… tell ya’ what, now - sit up for me a little, would ya’ please?” And with that, the fox reaches under the spider’s stomach, and does his best to heft her onto her knees - the spider quickly opening her eyes once again at the feeling of his hands on her stomach.
	“Ah- what are you- hnn…!” With that, the fox quietly presses his palms against her ample breasts, each one easily filling his hands with barely a thought. Without a moment to lose, he quickly gets to massaging the spider’s form once again, this time making sure to use as much movement as he could… He wanted her to feel good, after all, right?
	“Just relax, now… Try ‘n focus on what I’m doin’, yeah?” With that, the fox quietly rests his head against the spider’s shoulder for the time being, one hand moving itself from her ample bosom to between her legs. Almost immediately, the spider’s back arches from the sudden pleasure - he was rubbing her in her most sensitive spot, after all.
	“Hnngh… please… do not stop…” She quietly presses her head against his own, and wraps one of her arms around the side of his face.
	“Wouldn’t dream of it…” With that, he starts to up his pace, his fingers quietly pressing themselves into her folds with a gasp on her part. A moment or two passes with him quietly squirming and pressing against every single bit that he could get his hands in and around. The entire time, the spider was squirming within his grasp, each push into her body feeling like sparks were lighting up every single bit of her form - she was going to get off to this sooner rather than later.
	“Gabe… Gabe, hang on.” At her words, the fox’s eyes open a bit more before he stops moving entirely.
	“Uh… somethin’ wrong?”
	“No, just… let me go - I don’t want to cum yet.” At that, the fox quietly lets go of the spider’s form, making sure that his fingers were free from between her folds, as well. As soon as she’s let go, she stands up from the fox’s lap, and uses a pair of her arms to quietly splay out her long, red braid. Though, suddenly, one of her multiple arms reaches out with a mass of cloth dangling from one of her fingers - the top to her swimsuit. With barely a sound, she drops it to the floor before bringing a pair of her hands to her waist.
	She quietly pushes that fabric down towards her knees, bending over at the same time. Her rump sticks itself out towards the fox’s face, quickly causing the fox’s face to burn with a bright red blush - her folds were front and center, after all.
	“I… uh… wow.” The fox sits there for a moment, his mouth agape with disbelief.
	“Well, now… am I so beautiful that you have no words left? The only thing you can say is ‘wow’? Heh…” The spider simply smiles before pressing her hands against her hips for the umpteenth time. “Now… I have done you a favor, now it is your turn to do one for me.”
	“And, uh… what would tha-”
	“Strip.” And with that, the fox stands up from his spot on the ground before quickly pushing his shorts down to his ankles - a moment later, he’s standing there in the nude with his member sticking outward and dripping with clear pre-cum. The spider simply smiles for a moment before sauntering her way forward, and using one of her hands to grab the fox’s length. Without another word between the two of them aside from a quick “follow me” from the spider, she quietly starts to lead them towards the water.
	“What’re you… uh… what’re you thinkin’?”
	“Well, I want you to stuff me as many times as you can manage - surely you can use a bit less effort under the waves, hm?” And with barely another sound, the spider quickly tugs the fox forward into the water.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	The water was cool - not bone-chillingly cold, but not entirely warm enough to be comfortable… The fox had opened his eyes at that point, the feeling of that cool water surrounding him only to be greeted with a sight that he had longed for since he had gotten there - the spider, her clothing nowhere to be seen and her legs spread wide open for him. Only him.
	He opens his mouth for a moment to say something, only for a bubble of air to pass in front of his vision - he quickly closes his mouth after that. No need for him to lose all his air, after all. Nevertheless, he swims his way over towards the spider once again, this time grabbing onto her hips once he gets between her legs. With barely a sound, the spider simply floats there before wrapping her legs around the fox’s waist. He blinks for a moment or two before looking down… Well, if he wasn’t hard before, he certainly was now.
	With that, he lets out a small glub before lining up his length to the spider’s entrance. A soft press later, and his head spears its way inside, causing half of the spider’s eyes to close from the sudden jolt of pleasure. With barely another sound between the two of them, the fox quietly starts to pump his length into the spider’s folds… Once he presses himself all the way in, he ends up pulling himself out until the only thing left inside was his tip. Once there, he presses himself all the way back in once again.
	In and out, in and out, over and over again, the fox continues to pump his length between the spider’s legs. With each thrust in, a small bubble plops itself out through his nose, only to rise up towards the surface… This wasn’t good, was it… Soon, his thrusting starts to slow itself down, causing the spider to look up from her pleasure-induced haze. She blinks for a moment at the sight of the fox.
	He quickly points towards his throat, then points upward towards the surface. The spider blinks for a moment or two before tilting her head… Suddenly, she smiles and holds up a finger, as if saying “hold on”. With that, she takes her six hands, and presses her palms together. She quickly clasps her fingers before swirling her hands outward, creating a ring with her arms. A moment later, she leans forward, and starts to blow through that ring, causing a bubble to start to blow itself outward towards the fox. Once it’s away from her, she closes her arms and rubs her face for a moment.
	The fox, on the other hand simply floats there with his eyes wide as that bubble engulfs his head - a moment later, he takes a deep breath in, and presses a smile onto his face again. He tilts his head for a moment, as if to say “how did you do that?”, causing the spider to giggle to herself and playfully shrug. The fox rolls his eyes for a split second before quietly pressing himself into her folds once again.
	Almost all at once, the spider closes her eyes once again, and throws her head back in ecstasy - he was big enough that he could break her, but… it was strange - the only thing that she felt was full, other than anything else. Perfect. With that, she smiles for a moment before quietly squeezing her legs around the fox’s waist once again - this time making sure that he slams into her folds with as much force as he could muster. She wanted to feel him - every last bit.
	Before long, the fox starts to breath faster and faster… he starts to press his length between her legs faster and faster - almost there… Just have to… With barely a sound, the fox tenses up just as his length start to twitch - he quickly pushes himself in as deep as he possibly could before the first spurts splatter the spider’s insides. Jet after searing hot, sticky jet of seed splatters against the spider’s walls, each twitch causing her to squirm and shiver around his length…
	Before long, though, the spider’s walls clamp down onto the fox’s length, milking him for absolutely every single drop of spunk that he had in his system. More than once, she throws her head about in pure, unadulterated ecstasy - she was going to be walking funny in the morning, that was for sure. A few moments pass after the spider’s mind-shatteringly powerful orgasm before she just floats there in the fox’s arms…
	The fox, however, was smiling at the moment… With the spider in his grasp, he pulls his length out of her, causing his white seed to flood its way out of her entrance - the entire load quickly clouding the immediate area. With that, he grabs a hold of her as best as he can, and starts to bring her towards the surface - there was no way that he was spending the night sleeping in the water, after all.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	It had been a while since the two of them had first met like that - something that the fox had been happy to reminisce about. At the moment, he was laying on his couch, his legs propped up on the cushions and his wife quietly tucked against his chest. Her red hair, in its signature braid, was splayed out beside her head. This was the life - she was taking a nap, and he was on the verge of passing out from there being nothing in the world to do…
	Though, with his wife on his chest and the thought of such a beautiful woman in his life, it was no surprise that he needed to find time to relax more… With barely another word, he simply closes his eyes for the time being - a nap would do him good, after all, especially with the person that he loves more than anyone else in the world. With that, the fox tilts his head back against the cushion behind his head, and lets out a small sigh before he starts to drift off into dream land once more…
	“Darling?” The spider’s voice brings him back to consciousness a split second later.
	“Hn… yes, dear?” He tilts his head back up once more to look down to the spider on his chest, her four eyes looking at him with a sense of longing… For a moment, the only thing that the two of them do is stare at each other before the spider plants a small, loving smile onto her visage.
	“I… nothing. I simply wanted to tell you that I love you more than anyone in the world…” And with that, the spider presses her head back down onto the fox’s chest once again. The fox blinks for a moment or two before quietly leaning down and planting a small kiss onto the top of her head.
	“And you, are th’ best person I know, m’ best friend, and the person I wanna love with every single ounce of my body…” At his words, the spider lets out a small chuckle before placing one of her palms against his chest, right next to her head.
	“Careful, then… I might have to make sure that you know who is in charge around this place, no?” The fox lets out a chuckle at that point.
	“Trust me, I know what I said, didn’t I? ‘Sides, I don’t say nothin’  I don’t mean, ya’ know?” And with that, the fox leans his head back once again, this time placing his own hand against the side of the spider’s head - he was going to nap and it was going to be absolutely amazing, and no one could tell him or his wife otherwise. Without another sound between the two of them, the fox stares at the ceiling for a moment or two.
	“Y’know… I think you’ve made me the luckiest and the happiest guy in th’ world.”
	“And you have given me more than I could have ever asked for in all of my years.” The spider presses herself a bit closer to the fox once again, this time letting out a small, relaxed sigh - both of them were happy. There was absolutely no doubt about that. The only thing that made it all better was that they both knew what had happened that day out by the waves.
Even now, the fox starts to reminisce about what had happened by the shoreline on that day - the luckiest day of his life. He didn’t find treasure, of course, but the one thing better than treasure is someone who you could love with every fiber of your being. Besides, he had no regrets after that day - especially giving up looking for treasure alone. After all, as the saying goes, ‘The tides bring in the gifts of the sea, be it for a short time or forever’, and the one gift that can’t be lost was laying on his chest.
“I love you, Arachne… with every single bit of m’ soul.”
“And I love you, Gabe… to the farthest islands and back.”
