[mariagoner]

For the extremely saucy kilraaj, who wanted to see strategy games in the realm of the bedroom for our fic exchange. Enjoy-- and happy birthday to you once more! ♥

This fic is a direct follow up to Sexual Politics, Part 1. And comments, corrections and criticism are, as always, completely welcome and loved! After all, a little encouragement never fails

Erm. I am undoubtedly flushed and, er, um. Yes.
(Psst, spelling error: bathetic.)

[mariagoner]

Hee, trust me, that's not a mistake... it really is a situation full of much bathos for Penelo. Why else would she go to such extremes to right Larsa's wrongs...? ;)

And flushes? Hee, I like those where I am. XD

[miraba]

You need to get online so we can chat. Looks like you keep odd hours, though.

[mariagoner]

Heh, that is true! I'm a night owl and even I can't predict when I'll be up from night to night. ;)

[adore184]

This was ridiculously HOT! Wow. XD

[mariagoner]

Heee, I'm glad you liked! Such was the main reason I wrote the fic, after all... ;)

[thesoulwithin]

Ahaha, I never supposed there'd be any sexy!Penelo fics 8D

So much love for this~<3

[mariagoner]

Aww, but fics featuring sexy!Penelo and sexy!Larsa sexing each other up are so much fun to write! It's shame there aren't more like this out there. ;)

Thank you for the lovely review! ♥

[mariagoner]

I am a filthy, filthy author. I really need to be straightened out if you know what I mean and I think you do. Maybe your Vossler might be able to help? ;)

And Larsa! And Penelo! I have no idea but I can't imagine them being anything but animals-- or rather, a traveling beastiary-- in bed. Something about Larsa just suggest pained, smitten yearning, doesn't it? All those years of repression and desire must lead to some pretty interesting results once he finally gets into bed... XD

[mariagoner]

Oooooooh Vossssler! ::happy sigh:: I've got big plans for you, oh yes I do, you and that raging ego of yours. ::plots with wicked glee::

And yes, if Basch ever lets go of his perpetual mellow and falls into a proper frenzy, I would be much afeared of what could come out. 30+ years of repression must do some mighty interesting things to a man's imagination, no...?

I am so so sorry I couldn't read this earlier! >.<;; I don't remember if I told you about my family trip, sorry if I didn't. I just got back last night. :) Loved reading this.

My favorite parts:

(and considering the scandalous fashion sense of even their soldiers, that was saying something)

Even Ashe does it. XD;; Generations later (assuming they haven't got themselves invaded) one of Ashe's successors will look back and wonder "what the hell where they thinking? XD

Indeed, if the look of sudden intrigue that swept across his face meant anything, she’d probably be able to command his attention even if sudden calamity of the Occurian sort broke out again across all of Ivalice.

Helen:Paris::Penelo:Larsa, yes? (At least, in terms of distracting their men from war--although Penelo could probably start a war. With Vaan's "help", of course.)

Variety’s the spice of life, as Balthier always used to say!

This made me think she's been having some fun with Balthier as well...which I wouldn't really be surprised by. :)

“The men

[mariagoner]

Yay, I'm glad you ended up enjoying this story for our fic exchange after all! I admit, I was starting to get a little worried about whether or not you had liked it... I mean, the last fic I wrote for someone seems to have sailed clear over their head. So I'm double-plus-glad it worked for you! XD

Really, given how much much fun we've had at the expense at the crazy Dalmascan sense of fashion, how could I not include that bit? XD And Larsa probably would launch a thousand airships for Penelo, if that's what it took to win his lady love. Larsa in love = pure, sweet insanity, as Pauvre Basch has likely found out to his dear expense...

And Balthier and Penelo?! I've seen that pairing before but I don't, ah, think it went much beyond a very unrequited crush on Penelo's part. But of course, Larsa doesn't need to know that, right? ;) And yay, someone caught the motto bit! That was pretty much taken from the game wholesale... I was just wondering if anyone would point it out

[kilraaj]

Balthier/Penelo I mostly see as an unrequited crush too. Although I could see Balthier playing around with her as long as he didn't think she was going to get too attached. :)

Ooooh. Okay, I remember that now, you did ask for Larsa and crazy espers. :) I still have to finish the birthday fic for iced_puffy, but once I do I'll get started on it right away. :D

[mariagoner]

I think Fran might kill Balthier-- or at least maim him a little-- for doing that. Fran/Penelo friendship OTP 4EVA!!1!

And don't worry-- please feel free to take all the time you'd like! There's no hurry at all. ;)
