This kingdom is host to many masses of land and bodies of water. One of them just so happens to be an island, and a rather large one at that, named after the species that has a widespread inhabitance of it. Yoshi Island. Surely you've heard of it. There hardly exists a soul anymore that hasn't.\n\nIf one were to delve even further into this island, the would discover a seemingly endless number of small settlements, some even less than that, playing host to perhaps just one or two of these creatures that are native to this mass of land. It is deep within a vast expanse of forest that one in particular exists, and is the main focus of today's story...\n\nDeep within this forest exists a secluded house, host to a pair of beings, one of which is busying himself within the adjacent collection of fruit bearing trees, picking a wide variety and collecting them in a basket held aloft by his powerful, lengthy, almost prehensile tail. The green on white-tinged-with-green yoshi pauses for a moment, examining the contents of the basket, then, apparently satisfied, returns to the house, setting the basket on the kitchen table, then heads outside again, opening the valve to the sprinkler system to the trees.\n\nIf here were inside at that moment, he would have immediately realized his mistake in doing so. Then again, he would not have been able to do so in the first place, which would create a paradox in our timeline and completely alter the very course of this story. But I digress. From the bathroom, a loud yelp issues, where a vibrant orange and white yoshi quickly jumps out of the surge of hot water, grumbling as he adjusts the temperature back to a comfortable level, then reimmersing himself in the spray. After a moment, he directs it at the wall and grabs the bottle of shower gel, squirting a liberal amount into a paw and working it between both of them, then lathering it onto his body. Starting at his shoulders, he works his paws down his chest, then around his back, contorting around slightly to reach all areas of it. He then proceeds to his tail, scrubbing along its length, sighing gently as he does so, then works his way to his rump, soaping it up generously. On a whim, he slips a finger between his cheeks, teasing at his tailhole, then pauses for a moment, apparently in contemplation of an idea. He then snags the gel again, adding another dose to his paws, and works up a new batch of suds. He returns one slick paw to his rump, poking at his entrance, while the other takes up work at his front, cupping his sack, rolling the heavy, sagging orbs in his fingers, groaning at the sensation. Head back, eyes closed, tail swaying, he continues to fondle himself for a bit, then his paw shifts upward to squeeze at his firming shaft, holding it at the base as it gradually erects itself, eventually rising to a full seven inches. Moaning softly, he strokes at it slowly, watching the foreskin slide back and forth over the bulbous pink head, completely losing himself in the feeling after a few moments. Meanwhile, the other paw works at burying a finger into his rear to poke at his prostate eagerly, and his rod up front begins to issue a slow stream of precum in response. The suds now mostly rinsed off, he gathers that fluid in his paw, spreading it down his length.\n\n\"Oh Lime...what I wouldn't give to have you helping me,\" he utters, plunging a second finger into his rear quickly, pumping his prostate urgently, his cock leaking pre copiously. He groans out loudly after a moment, body tensing up as his orgasm springs to life, paw stroking furiously as he cums. His cock issues spurt after spurt of spooge outward in various arcs, most splattering onto the wall opposite. At length he relaxes, squeezing the trailing end of his orgasm from his softening shaft, extending his tongue to lick paw and penis clean, savoring the unique flavor of his fluids. He sighs contently, then finishes up his shower, hopping out and wrapping up in a towel. He then pads off to the kitchen, snagging an orange from the basket on the table. He flips it into the air, watching it fly, then catches it with an accurate flick of the tongue, swallowing it whole. He then strides to the living room, finding his green friend watching the television on the couch, who notices his entrance. \n\n\"Hey there. Just got done showering, eh?\"\n\nTangerine nods, plopping down next to Lime. \"Yup...and you turned on the water to the trees a bit ago, didn't you?\"\n\nLime looks at him for a moment, then pieces it together. \"Oh, crap, I'm sorry; I didn't know you were in there; I'd been outside gathering some fruit and-\"\n\n\"Hey, slow down, it's fine. No real harm done,\" Tang' interrupts, smiling at him. The green yoshi breathes a sigh of relief.\n\n\"So, anything good on?\" the orange one inquires.\n\n\"Nah, not really.\"\n\nTang' nods back in response, then glances sideways, his attention wandering, where his gaze falls on the nearby calendar, bringing an interesting fact to his attention. \"Hey, Lime, check it out. It's the 12th.\"\n\n\"Indeed, it is, but how is that related to anything?\"\n\n\"You forget this every year, silly. It's the day we moved here.\"\n\nLime's eyes widen with realization at this. \"Oh, wow, you're right. 5 years...where has the time gone? It sure doesn't feel like it's been that long...just you and I out here. Two friends living a quiet, easy life together...couldn't ask for a whole lot more, eh?\"\n\nTang' shakes his head. \"Not a whole lot, no...\"\n\nLime peers at him curiously. \"Is something wrong, Tangie?\"\n\nThe orange yoshi sighs softly. \"It's just...well...you know I enjoy being here with you; I would never change that. But, lately, I've been feeling like there's something missing...a sort of...loneliness, I guess. I mean, I know we're great friends...but that's just it. I'm feeling lonely in a way that can't be satisfied by that...if that's understandable at all.\"\n\nLime nods slowly. \"Yeah, I get what you're saying...and I kinda know how you feel at times...\"\n\nTangerine gazes at him with a somewhat hopeful look. Lime stares back, trying to decipher it, and then it all comes together in his mind at once, causing him to gasp slightly. \"Tangie...you don't mean...us?\"\n\nThe orange yoshi nods slowly, a growing blush spreading across his face, and Lime stares at him in disbelief. \"Us...well, that's something rather different, though...\"\n\n\"How so? You said it yourself, we've been friends for years; who'd be better than us?\"\n\nLime gives him a slightly incredulous look in response. \"Well, for one, we're both...you know, guys,\" he starts, but Tang' interjects.\n\n\"Umm, maybe you haven't noticed, but they're my preference,\" he replies, the blush on his face intensifying.\n\nLime continues to stare him down. \"But I'm not-\"\n\nTangerine cuts him off again, this time with a paw reaching up to his chin, locking their gazes together. \"Hey, just listen to me for a second. I'm not asking you to turn gay for me. I'm just saying...I find you very attractive, Lime. You're cute, smart, funny, caring, and really sexy...it's all I can do to keep my eyes and mind off you sometimes. But, I'm not asking you to feel at all the same way about me. Just...if you're willing to test the waters, I'm all for it. Even if all it ends up being for is just the physical comfort, it's still more than I could ever ask for. I...really like you a lot, Lime, and that'll never change. Every moment I spend with you makes me happy...and I can't help but wonder what could be if we tried.\"\n\nLime gazes at him, completely thrown off-balance. \"I...I don't know. I just...I'd have to think about it. Even if it isn't much, it's still a lot for me. I'm not saying no...but I can't guarantee I won't.\"\n\nTangerine nods. \"I understand; take all the time you need.\"\n\nThe afternoon wears on in relative silence, eventually transitioning into an equally quiet evening, with Lime doing his best to avoid Tang's gazes completely. At length, darkness settles over the clearing, and the two decide to call it a night. In the process of exchanging control of the bathroom, their eyes meet and lock, some sort of silent, incomprehensible communication flowing between them for a seemingly infinite moment, broken at length by Tangerine's voice.\n\n\"Hey, Lime...if I've upset or troubled you, I apologize. I let my feelings run away with my words back there. Just know that I never had nor ever will have the intent of breaking our friendship.\"\n\nLime nods. \"I know, and neither do I; it's just something I have to think about.\"\n\n\"Okay. You have a good night.\"\n\n\"Thanks...you too.\"\n\nTangerine heads off to his room, while Lime takes over the bathroom, readying himself for the same. At length he stops and stares at himself in the mirror, his thoughts conflicting within him. \"I'm not gay. I've never even had thoughts of it...so why does this intrigue me so much? It's not something I'd ever have done in the past, and yet...\" He glances downward, between his legs, where his cock is hanging, half-hard, out of his sheath. He wiggles a bit, watching it flop about, then grabs it firmly with a paw, coaxing it to its full 5.5 inches. Stroking it briskly, he waddles over, kneeling in front of the toilet. After a bit, he removes his aw and extends his tongue, wrapping it around his shaft, humping into the formed passage, cock dripping pre to mix with the saliva on his tongue, further slickening both. As he humps, he uses a paw to squeeze at his nuts, sending shivers along his spine. At length he starts panting around his extended tongue, pumping faster, squeezing tightly on both shaft and sack. He then groans softly, body tensing, back arching as he cums, most of his spooge splattering against the raised toilet lid. Still panting, he uncoils his tongue and retracts it, leaning forward to let the remainder of his orgasm drip into the bowl, wiping off the lid as he waits. He then cleans himself off as well, flushes, and finishes his business, heading to bed afterward. He lays awake, however, for several minutes before eventually drifting off into a fitful sleep.\n\nDarkness. Thick, hazy darkness. The green yoshi fumbles about in it, searching for a source of light to switch on. Suddenly, a paw grips his tail, gentle, yet firm, raising it high. \"Hey, who's there?\" he demands, though the words escape as barely a whisper. Though, as if in response, another paw, accompanied by an arm, wraps around his chest, pulling him close to another warm body behind him.\n\n\"Shh, it's gonna be okay, just relax,\" an oddly familiar voice whispers to him, a peculiar scent of oranges drifting along with it. Before Lime can respond, though, a hard, warm object pierces his tailhole, plunging deep into his rear with one fluid motion. He gasps, again muffled, intense pain radiating from his backside as the being, foreign yet somehow familiar, grinds itself in and out of him. Very quickly, however, the pain is dulled from existence by the most intense, enveloping pleasure, causing his cock to swiftly erect itself, throbbing madly with desire. Still thrusting rapidly into him, the male behind him whispers again, \"You're mine now,\" and pounds his rod deep, causing the green yoshi to orgasm instantly, his cum jetting into the impermeable black miasma surrounding him. He tries to cry out, both in shock and ecstasy, but no air escapes his lungs. Instead, the darkness seems to thicken and plunge down his throat, filling his lungs with smothering emptiness...\n\nIt is at this moment that Lime starts awake, sitting up quickly, gasping for air. A cold sweat drenches his body, and a considerable amount of spooge is pooled on his chest, cooling as it dries, his softening shaft dripping more of it, and a strange tingling emanates from the region of his tailhole. Bedside clock indicating 2:53AM, he sighs, plodding sleepily to the bathroom, where he takes a quick shower to rinse off. After returning to bed, however, sleep initially refuses to reclaim him, and the clock rounds 4 well before he drifts off again.\n\nOutside, rain pounds heavily against the window, and a bolt of lightning flashes through the sky, illuminating the forest for a brief moment.\n\nIn his darkened room, Lime continues to sleep, albeit rather fitfully, while Tangerine stands outside his closed door, wondering why his friend is still asleep.\n\n\"He's always up before me...something's not right,\" he mumbles to himself. Tentatively, he knocks on the door, and after receiving no response, he opens it a crack and peers in. A narrow strip of light eagerly invades the dark space, a portion of it falling on the restless green yoshi. Tangerine observes for a moment, then creeps in, moving to his bedside. There he stands for some undetermined amount of time, just watching, until the relative silence is pervaded by a whimper from none other than Lime. Instinctively, the orange one's calls out his name to him, causing the troubled yoshi's eyes to snap open suddenly and peer at the source of the sound, blinking repeatedly. \"Tangie?\"\n\n\"Yeah, it's me,\" he replies, sitting on the bed beside him. \"What's wrong? You were tossing and whimpering in your sleep...bad dreams or something?\"\n\nLime nods slowly. \"Yeah...all night. They just keep coming...haven't gotten hardly any proper sleep.\"\n\nTang' gazes at him concernedly. \"What're they about?\"\n\nA bolt of lightning interrupts by crashing into the forest not-too-far-away, illuminating the room for a brief moment. Lime just shakes his head in response. \"I...I can't...just don't want to talk about it...\" he stammers, completely afraid of revealing the depths of his mind to his best friend.\n\nTang' just nods in response, pulling him close for a hug. \"Okay. I won't force you into it. Just remember I'm always here for you, okay?\"\n\nLime smiles weakly and nods, returning the embrace after a moment. Said moment lengthens, to the objection of neither, until the rumble of a stomach perforates the silence, and the green yoshi giggles sheepishly.\n\nTang' chuckles and stands. \"I'll go start breakfast then. Feel free to wander out whenever you're awake enough,\" and exits, leaving the green one sitting and pondering, the vivid feelings and images of his dreams still bouncing about in his conflicted head. Eventually, a delicious aroma coasts lazily into the room, inviting itself into his nostrils, snapping him back to reality. He follows the alluring scent, stopping off at the bathroom on the way, eventually reaching the kitchen, where he seats himself at the table, waiting rather eagerly.\n\nThe orange one continues to bustle about, completely oblivious to Lime's presence, his attention focused entirely on the stovetop and its surroundings. At length, though, he turns to fetch something from the 'fridge, and catches a glimpse of green in the corner of his vision. Smiling inwardly, he returns to his work, speaking after a moment. \"Doing okay back there?\"\n\n\"Oh, yeah, I'm good. Just waiting for you to finish; it smells completely delicious.\"\n\n\"Hehe, only the best, you know,\" he replies, casting a momentary smile backward. Lime smiles back before his overactive mind consumes his attention again, only to be snapped back by a plate being set in front of him a couple minutes later.\n\n\"You sure you're okay? You seem rather distracted to me,\" Tang' inquires, taking a seat opposite.\n\n\"Yeah. Just...thinking about stuff,\" he replies, trailing off, then quickly busies himself with eating to occupy his mind. Tang' nods and digs in as well, pausing after a moment to reply.\n\n\"Anything in particular you want to discuss?\"\n\nLime just shakes his head and continues eating, earning a frown of disappointment from his friend.\n\n\"You know you can talk to me about anything, right?\"\n\nAt the question, Lime stares at him, hesitating to respond, prompting Tang' to continue.\n\n\"Listen...if it's about us, you can just say no.\"\n\n\"But I don't want to say no-\" he starts, almost too quickly, but stops himself just as quickly, opting to stare down at his mostly empty place, his cheeks now reddening. Tang' stares at him, an almost disbelieving look on his face.\n\n\"Does that mean...you're...\"\n\n\"No! I mean...well...I just...\" His words trail off, and he pushes his plate aside to plant his elbows on the table, holding his head in his paws.\n\n\"What is it that you want, Lime?\" Tang' interjects, trying not to let silence ruin the momentum.\n\n\"I...I don't know...I'm just so confused...\" he mumbles back in response.\n\nTang' then reaches across the table, hooking a finger under Lime's chin, pulling his head up so their eyes meet. \"Lime, listen. It's entirely up to you as to whether we do this or not, or how far it goes if we do. But nothing's going to happen if you don't make up your mind...you have to talk to me here. So, right now,\" and he grabs Lime's paws in his, \"make your decision.\"\n\nFor a seemingly infinite moment, the two stare at each other, respective gazes locked until Lime nods. Slowly, almost imperceptibly, but it still registers as one.\n\n\"And when?\" comes the immediate reply.\n\n\"I...later. Later today...sometime...\" his shaky voice returns, and Tang' nods.\n\n\"Okay. C'mere, you,\" and he rounds the table, pulling his friend up for a long, loving hug. Not finding it immediately objectionable, Line wraps his own arms about the orange yoshi and rests his head on his shoulder, somewhat enjoying the attention. After a moment, Tang' chuckles, and the explanation follows before it can be requested.\n\n\"Are you sure it can wait, though? Something else seems to think differently,\" and he pulls away, looking downward. Lime peers down as well, and blushes hard at the sight of his own cock standing at full attention, poking his friend in the belly. Tang' chuckles again at his reaction. \"Hadn't you noticed it?\"\n\n\"No...my mind's too far scattered, I guess...\"\n\n\"Yeah, I suppose that's understandable. My question still stands, however. Can it really wait?\"\n\n\"I...umm...well...\" Lime stammers for a response, his eyes darting about, avoiding his orange companion's gaze.\n\n\"How about this: just let me start, and if at any point you get weirded out or too uncomfortable, you can stop me.\"\n\n\"Oh...well...I suppose that'll work, yeah...\" he replies, quietly, nervously, throwing in another of his tiny nods.\n\nTang' nods back. \"Okay. You just enjoy yourself, and leave the work to me.\" With this he embraces his friend again, rubbing his paws along Lime's back, eliciting a quiet sigh from the green yoshi. Lime can't help but become relaxed under the attention, and he sighs again as Tang's paws slide around to stroke at his chest. The attention is suddenly punctuated, however, as Tang' pulls Lime to the living room, setting him on the couch, where he plops down beside him and continues.\n\nLime just sits, head tilted back, eyes closed, blush twinging his cheeks. Orange paws continue to massage his chest, and after a few moments slip downward to his belly, eliciting further sighs of the utmost content from him. Thoroughly enjoying himself as well, Tang' happily rubs at Lime's belly, though his eyes are intently locked on the hard piece of yoshi meat standing up just below. At length he grows tired of waiting, and one paw slides steadily lower, causing Lime to tremble with anticipation. His cock throbs with the same, but neither have to wait long. His entire body stiffens, and he draws a sharp, hissing breath, as Tang' traces a finger up its length. That breath soon escapes as a long groan as the finger pokes into his foreskin, tracing around the concealed ridge of the head, his toes curling with delight at the sensation. Taking that as a sign of approval, he slides his paw back down, gripping the hot shaft at its base and pulling downward, watching the skin slide down off the head, much to Lime's enjoyment. The utterly slow pace driving him nuts, his paws clench at the fabric of the couch, and his throbbing cock begins to seep sticky precum at a steady rate. Noticing this, Tang' slides his paw down, keeping the head exposed, and wraps the other around it, twisting with a firm grip. At this, Lime lets out a sudden, sharp whine, his hips bucking up against Tang's paws. The orange yoshi quickly releases him, an amused look on his face as Lime pants hard, relaxing again.\n\n\"Wow, Tangie...you just about made me cum there,\" he pants, and the orange one grins.\n\n\"Next time I won't stop then,\" he replies, sliding his paw down it again, head to base, slickening the entire length. Lime throws his head back again, panting heavily, cock leaking copiously into Tang's slowly milking paw.\n\n\"Oh...oh Tangie...please don't stop...\" he whines hotly. The orange yoshi complies, keeping a slow, steady pace going.\n\n\"Go on, Lime...cum for me, buddy,\" he urges. It doesn't take much more than that to set him off. His breath catches; his entire body shakes with the final buildup, and then he cums hard. He cries out as the first spurt of spooge bursts forth, arcing high in to the air before splattering against his heaving chest, then follows with a cacophony of whines and moans as his nuts continue to empty themselves onto his chest, cock, and Tang's paw. The orange yoshi continues to work his pulsing shaft, stopping only once Lime's limbs go lip, cock slowly deflating, lungs taking great gulps of air.\n\nTang simply chuckles, rather knowingly. \"Hmm, I'd say someone enjoyed that, eh?\"\n\n\"Yes...oh thank you, Tangie...that was absolutely great,\" he pants, gazing at his friend, eyes slightly out of focus.\n\nHis orange friend smiles back happily. \"So, how would you feel about doing me?\"\n\n\"Huh? Oh, yeah...well, I suppose it's only fair...\"\n\n\"Hey, now if you don't want to-\"\n\n\"But I do,\" he interjects, and repositions himself, bringing his face up close to Tang's throbbing member, studying it carefully. \"Oh wow...I never realized how much longer and thicker you are than me,\" he says, earning an embarrassed giggle from above. Tentatively, he reaches forward, curling a paw lightly around it, slightly amazed at its heat. Tang' lets out a slow sigh at the touch, half-lidded eyes watching his friend work his needy shaft.\n\n\"Oh Lime...you have no idea how long I've wished this could happen...\" he says softly, getting a slightly nervous chuckle back. The green yoshi picks up a steady stroking rhythm, interestedly watching the foreskin slide up and down the fleshy pink head, having never seen it from such an angle. Tang' moans out softly, completely lost in the pleasure, unaware of the fact that Lime is still studying his cock intently, pondering other ideas.\n\n\"It's so close...and not really that different than mine, despite being a lot bigger...maybe just a little lick...couldn't hurt...\" Still within Tang's relative oblivity, he flicks his tongue out, removes his paw from the hard shaft, and gives a quick slurp to its entire length.\n\nAt once, Tang's eyes snap open, and he gasps sharply, taken by complete surprise. He looks down at lime to find him grinning back up at him. \"Wow...you sure are full of surprises today, aren't you?\"\n\nLime blushes instantly and nods. \"Well...I've done it to myself...and figured yours wouldn't be much different,\" he explains. \"Which it's not, by the way,\" and then he slurps it again eagerly. Tang' gasps again, his cock twitching against the prehensile muscle.\n\n\"Well...I've certainly no argument...by all means, do as you please...\"\n\nA third lick has him tossing his head back in ecstasy, toes and fingers curling, eyes clenching shut. Then, he feels it coiling around his entire length, and he can't help but whimper. \"Oh gods, Lime...keep it up, please...\"\n\nThe green yoshi gladly complies, working his tongue all over Tang's shaft firmly. It isn't long before he's bucking and drooling into the coil of wet muscle, whimpering loudly. \"Oh...oh Lime...here it comes...\"\n\nInstinctively, he pulls his head back, which only serves to aim Tang's bulging shaft directly at his nose, which takes the first jet of spooge directly. Lime cringes and jerks upward, and the second spurt rockets right into his open mouth. Spluttering, he cranes his head downward, unable to escape, and takes the rest of Tangerine's orgasm across his face. After being thoroughly doused in Tang's cum, the orange yoshi finally goes limp, and Lime retracts his tongue and sits back. At length, after laying there panting for a while, Tang' opens his eyes, and chuckles at the sight. \"Oh, Lime, I'm sorry...you really didn't have to hang on through that, though...\"\n\nLime shakes his head in response. \"No, it's okay...it wasn't that bad, really. You just know how I am, though.\"\n\nTang' chuckles and nods. \"Mind if I help you out with that?\" He gets a nod in response, and he then sits up, flicking his own tongue out to lap at his own fluids coating his green friend's face. Lime sits and puts up with it, eyes clenched shut, but pulls away when the tongue traces down the side of his face, opting to wipe the rest away from near his mouth with a paw.\n\n\"Sorry,\" he says with an apologetic look in reply to Tang's inquisitive look.\n\n\"No, don't be. It's your call, after all.\"\n\nLime smiles, then leans forward and hugs his orange friend tightly. \"Hey...about the dreams earlier. Well, they were about us...but I think they were bad because I was just really scared and nervous. I didn't know how it was going to turn out,\" he explains.\n\nTang' squeezes him back. \"I had a feeling...but what do you think? Did you find it tolerable?\"\n\nLime chuckles. \"Oh, more than tolerable, Tangie. You've showed me something I'd never thought could be so enjoyable...I think I could get used to it.\"\n\n\"Hehe...well, I'm glad you liked it so much. I was really worried myself that you wouldn't...but all that aside, if I know you at all, you're practically itching to get in the shower to clean up.\"\n\nPulling away, Lime nods, grinning. \"You don't mind, do you?\"\n\nTang' smiles at him and shakes his head. \"No, not at all. Go right ahead.\"\n\nLime smiles back, then hops up and toddles off to the bathroom, leaving a somewhat amazed Tangerine to sit on the couch, basking in the afterglow of what had just taken place, his unfocused gaze drifting out the window. Outside, the storm is finally beginning to clear; the rain lets up, and rays of sunlight pierce through the cloud layer, and a blanket of peace slowly rolls over the forest once again.", "writing_bbcode_parsed": "In the middle of somewhere exists a kingdom. This kingdom is host to many masses of land and bodies of water. One of them just so happens to be an island, and a rather large one at that, named after the species that has a widespread inhabitance of it. Yoshi Island. Surely you've heard of it. There hardly exists a soul anymore that hasn't.

If one were to delve even further into this island, the would discover a seemingly endless number of small settlements, some even less than that, playing host to perhaps just one or two of these creatures that are native to this mass of land. It is deep within a vast expanse of forest that one in particular exists, and is the main focus of today's story...

Deep within this forest exists a secluded house, host to a pair of beings, one of which is busying himself within the adjacent collection of fruit bearing trees, picking a wide variety and collecting them in a basket held aloft by his powerful, lengthy, almost prehensile tail. The green on white-tinged-with-green yoshi pauses for a moment, examining the contents of the basket, then, apparently satisfied, returns to the house, setting the basket on the kitchen table, then heads outside again, opening the valve to the sprinkler system to the trees.

If here were inside at that moment, he would have immediately realized his mistake in doing so. Then again, he would not have been able to do so in the first place, which would create a paradox in our timeline and completely alter the very course of this story. But I digress. From the bathroom, a loud yelp issues, where a vibrant orange and white yoshi quickly jumps out of the surge of hot water, grumbling as he adjusts the temperature back to a comfortable level, then reimmersing himself in the spray. After a moment, he directs it at the wall and grabs the bottle of shower gel, squirting a liberal amount into a paw and working it between both of them, then lathering it onto his body. Starting at his shoulders, he works his paws down his chest, then around his back, contorting around slightly to reach all areas of it. He then proceeds to his tail, scrubbing along its length, sighing gently as he does so, then works his way to his rump, soaping it up generously. On a whim, he slips a finger between his cheeks, teasing at his tailhole, then pauses for a moment, apparently in contemplation of an idea. He then snags the gel again, adding another dose to his paws, and works up a new batch of suds. He returns one slick paw to his rump, poking at his entrance, while the other takes up work at his front, cupping his sack, rolling the heavy, sagging orbs in his fingers, groaning at the sensation. Head back, eyes closed, tail swaying, he continues to fondle himself for a bit, then his paw shifts upward to squeeze at his firming shaft, holding it at the base as it gradually erects itself, eventually rising to a full seven inches. Moaning softly, he strokes at it slowly, watching the foreskin slide back and forth over the bulbous pink head, completely losing himself in the feeling after a few moments. Meanwhile, the other paw works at burying a finger into his rear to poke at his prostate eagerly, and his rod up front begins to issue a slow stream of precum in response. The suds now mostly rinsed off, he gathers that fluid in his paw, spreading it down his length.

"Oh Lime...what I wouldn't give to have you helping me," he utters, plunging a second finger into his rear quickly, pumping his prostate urgently, his cock leaking pre copiously. He groans out loudly after a moment, body tensing up as his orgasm springs to life, paw stroking furiously as he cums. His cock issues spurt after spurt of spooge outward in various arcs, most splattering onto the wall opposite. At length he relaxes, squeezing the trailing end of his orgasm from his softening shaft, extending his tongue to lick paw and penis clean, savoring the unique flavor of his fluids. He sighs contently, then finishes up his shower, hopping out and wrapping up in a towel. He then pads off to the kitchen, snagging an orange from the basket on the table. He flips it into the air, watching it fly, then catches it with an accurate flick of the tongue, swallowing it whole. He then strides to the living room, finding his green friend watching the television on the couch, who notices his entrance.

"Hey there. Just got done showering, eh?"

Tangerine nods, plopping down next to Lime. "Yup...and you turned on the water to the trees a bit ago, didn't you?"

Lime looks at him for a moment, then pieces it together. "Oh, crap, I'm sorry; I didn't know you were in there; I'd been outside gathering some fruit and-"

"Hey, slow down, it's fine. No real harm done," Tang' interrupts, smiling at him. The green yoshi breathes a sigh of relief.

"So, anything good on?" the orange one inquires.

"Nah, not really."

Tang' nods back in response, then glances sideways, his attention wandering, where his gaze falls on the nearby calendar, bringing an interesting fact to his attention. "Hey, Lime, check it out. It's the 12th."

"Indeed, it is, but how is that related to anything?"

"You forget this every year, silly. It's the day we moved here."

Lime's eyes widen with realization at this. "Oh, wow, you're right. 5 years...where has the time gone? It sure doesn't feel like it's been that long...just you and I out here. Two friends living a quiet, easy life together...couldn't ask for a whole lot more, eh?"

Tang' shakes his head. "Not a whole lot, no..."

Lime peers at him curiously. "Is something wrong, Tangie?"

The orange yoshi sighs softly. "It's just...well...you know I enjoy being here with you; I would never change that. But, lately, I've been feeling like there's something missing...a sort of...loneliness, I guess. I mean, I know we're great friends...but that's just it. I'm feeling lonely in a way that can't be satisfied by that...if that's understandable at all."

Lime nods slowly. "Yeah, I get what you're saying...and I kinda know how you feel at times..."

Tangerine gazes at him with a somewhat hopeful look. Lime stares back, trying to decipher it, and then it all comes together in his mind at once, causing him to gasp slightly. "Tangie...you don't mean...us?"

The orange yoshi nods slowly, a growing blush spreading across his face, and Lime stares at him in disbelief. "Us...well, that's something rather different, though..."

"How so? You said it yourself, we've been friends for years; who'd be better than us?"

Lime gives him a slightly incredulous look in response. "Well, for one, we're both...you know, guys," he starts, but Tang' interjects.

"Umm, maybe you haven't noticed, but they're my preference," he replies, the blush on his face intensifying.

Lime continues to stare him down. "But I'm not-"

Tangerine cuts him off again, this time with a paw reaching up to his chin, locking their gazes together. "Hey, just listen to me for a second. I'm not asking you to turn gay for me. I'm just saying...I find you very attractive, Lime. You're cute, smart, funny, caring, and really sexy...it's all I can do to keep my eyes and mind off you sometimes. But, I'm not asking you to feel at all the same way about me. Just...if you're willing to test the waters, I'm all for it. Even if all it ends up being for is just the physical comfort, it's still more than I could ever ask for. I...really like you a lot, Lime, and that'll never change. Every moment I spend with you makes me happy...and I can't help but wonder what could be if we tried."

Lime gazes at him, completely thrown off-balance. "I...I don't know. I just...I'd have to think about it. Even if it isn't much, it's still a lot for me. I'm not saying no...but I can't guarantee I won't."

Tangerine nods. "I understand; take all the time you need."

The afternoon wears on in relative silence, eventually transitioning into an equally quiet evening, with Lime doing his best to avoid Tang's gazes completely. At length, darkness settles over the clearing, and the two decide to call it a night. In the process of exchanging control of the bathroom, their eyes meet and lock, some sort of silent, incomprehensible communication flowing between them for a seemingly infinite moment, broken at length by Tangerine's voice.

"Hey, Lime...if I've upset or troubled you, I apologize. I let my feelings run away with my words back there. Just know that I never had nor ever will have the intent of breaking our friendship."

Lime nods. "I know, and neither do I; it's just something I have to think about."

"Okay. You have a good night."

"Thanks...you too."

Tangerine heads off to his room, while Lime takes over the bathroom, readying himself for the same. At length he stops and stares at himself in the mirror, his thoughts conflicting within him. "I'm not gay. I've never even had thoughts of it...so why does this intrigue me so much? It's not something I'd ever have done in the past, and yet..." He glances downward, between his legs, where his cock is hanging, half-hard, out of his sheath. He wiggles a bit, watching it flop about, then grabs it firmly with a paw, coaxing it to its full 5.5 inches. Stroking it briskly, he waddles over, kneeling in  front of the toilet. After a bit, he removes his aw and extends his tongue, wrapping it around his shaft, humping into the formed passage, cock dripping pre to mix with the saliva on his tongue, further slickening both. As he humps, he uses a paw to squeeze at his nuts, sending shivers along his spine. At length he starts panting around his extended tongue, pumping faster, squeezing tightly on both shaft and sack. He then groans softly, body tensing, back arching as he cums, most of his spooge splattering against the raised toilet lid. Still panting, he uncoils his tongue and retracts it, leaning forward to let the remainder of his orgasm drip into the bowl, wiping off the lid as he waits. He then cleans himself off as well, flushes, and finishes his business, heading to bed afterward. He lays awake, however, for several minutes before eventually drifting off into a fitful sleep.

Darkness. Thick, hazy darkness. The green yoshi fumbles about in it, searching for a source of light to switch on. Suddenly, a paw grips his tail, gentle, yet firm, raising it high. "Hey, who's there?" he demands, though the words escape as barely a whisper. Though, as if in response, another paw, accompanied by an arm, wraps around his chest, pulling him close to another warm body behind him.

"Shh, it's gonna be okay, just relax," an oddly familiar voice whispers to him, a peculiar scent of oranges drifting along with it. Before Lime can respond, though, a hard, warm object pierces his tailhole, plunging deep into his rear with one fluid motion. He gasps, again muffled, intense pain radiating from his backside as the being, foreign yet somehow familiar, grinds itself in and out of him. Very quickly, however, the pain is dulled from existence by the most intense, enveloping pleasure, causing his cock to swiftly erect itself, throbbing madly with desire. Still thrusting rapidly into him, the male behind him whispers again, "You're mine now," and pounds his rod deep, causing the green yoshi to orgasm instantly, his cum jetting into the impermeable black miasma surrounding him. He tries to cry out, both in shock and ecstasy, but no air escapes his lungs. Instead, the darkness seems to thicken and plunge down his throat, filling his lungs with smothering emptiness...

It is at this moment that Lime starts awake, sitting up quickly, gasping for air. A cold sweat drenches his body, and a considerable amount of spooge is pooled on his chest, cooling as it dries, his softening shaft dripping more of it, and a strange tingling emanates from the region of his tailhole. Bedside clock indicating 2:53AM, he sighs, plodding sleepily to the bathroom, where he takes a quick shower to rinse off. After returning to bed, however, sleep initially refuses to reclaim him, and the clock rounds 4 well before he drifts off again.

Outside, rain pounds heavily against the window, and a bolt of lightning flashes through the sky, illuminating the forest for a brief moment.

In his darkened room, Lime continues to sleep, albeit rather fitfully, while Tangerine stands outside his closed door, wondering why his friend is still asleep.

"He's always up before me...something's not right," he mumbles to himself. Tentatively, he knocks on the door, and after receiving no response, he opens it a crack and peers in. A narrow strip of light eagerly invades the dark space, a portion of it falling on the restless green yoshi. Tangerine observes for a moment, then creeps in, moving to his bedside. There he stands for some undetermined amount of time, just watching, until the relative silence is pervaded by a whimper from none other than Lime. Instinctively, the orange one's calls out his name to him, causing the troubled yoshi's eyes to snap open suddenly and peer at the source of the sound, blinking repeatedly. "Tangie?"

"Yeah, it's me," he replies, sitting on the bed beside him. "What's wrong? You were tossing and whimpering in your sleep...bad dreams or something?"

Lime nods slowly. "Yeah...all night. They just keep coming...haven't gotten hardly any proper sleep."

Tang' gazes at him concernedly. "What're they about?"

A bolt of lightning interrupts by crashing into the forest not-too-far-away, illuminating the room for a brief moment. Lime just shakes his head in response. "I...I can't...just don't want to talk about it..." he stammers, completely afraid of revealing the depths of his mind to his best friend.

Tang' just nods in response, pulling him close for a hug. "Okay. I won't force you into it. Just remember I'm always here for you, okay?"

Lime smiles weakly and nods, returning the embrace after a moment. Said moment lengthens, to the objection of neither, until the rumble of a stomach perforates the silence, and the green yoshi giggles sheepishly.

Tang' chuckles and stands. "I'll go start breakfast then. Feel free to wander out whenever you're awake enough," and exits, leaving the green one sitting and pondering, the vivid feelings and images of his dreams still bouncing about in his conflicted head. Eventually, a delicious aroma coasts lazily into the room, inviting itself into his nostrils, snapping him back to reality. He follows the alluring scent, stopping off at the bathroom on the way, eventually reaching the kitchen, where he seats himself at the table, waiting rather eagerly.

The orange one continues to bustle about, completely oblivious to Lime's presence, his attention focused entirely on the stovetop and its surroundings. At length, though, he turns to fetch something from the 'fridge, and catches a glimpse of green in the corner of his vision. Smiling inwardly, he returns to his work, speaking after a moment. "Doing okay back there?"

"Oh, yeah, I'm good. Just waiting for you to finish; it smells completely delicious."

"Hehe, only the best, you know," he replies, casting a momentary smile backward. Lime smiles back before his overactive mind consumes his attention again, only to be snapped back by a plate being set in front of him a couple minutes later.

"You sure you're okay? You seem rather distracted to me," Tang' inquires, taking a seat opposite.

"Yeah. Just...thinking about stuff," he replies, trailing off, then quickly busies himself with eating to occupy his mind. Tang' nods and digs in as well, pausing after a moment to reply.

"Anything in particular you want to discuss?"

Lime just shakes his head and continues eating, earning a frown of disappointment from his friend.

"You know you can talk to me about anything, right?"

At the question, Lime stares at him, hesitating to respond, prompting Tang' to continue.

"Listen...if it's about us, you can just say no."

"But I don't want to say no-" he starts, almost too quickly, but stops himself just as quickly, opting to stare down at his mostly empty place, his cheeks now reddening. Tang' stares at him, an almost disbelieving look on his face.

"Does that mean...you're..."

"No! I mean...well...I just..." His words trail off, and he pushes his plate aside to plant his elbows on the table, holding his head in his paws.

"What is it that you want, Lime?" Tang' interjects, trying not to let silence ruin the momentum.

"I...I don't know...I'm just so confused..." he mumbles back in response.

Tang' then reaches across the table, hooking a finger under Lime's chin, pulling his head up so their eyes meet. "Lime, listen. It's entirely up to you as to whether we do this or not, or how far it goes if we do. But nothing's going to happen if you don't make up your mind...you have to talk to me here. So, right now," and he grabs Lime's paws in his, "make your decision."

For a seemingly infinite moment, the two stare at each other, respective gazes locked until Lime nods. Slowly, almost imperceptibly, but it still registers as one.

"And when?" comes the immediate reply.

"I...later. Later today...sometime..." his shaky voice returns, and Tang' nods.

"Okay. C'mere, you," and he rounds the table, pulling his friend up for a long, loving hug. Not finding it immediately objectionable, Line wraps his own arms about the orange yoshi and rests his head on his shoulder, somewhat enjoying the attention. After a moment, Tang' chuckles, and the explanation follows before it can be requested.

"Are you sure it can wait, though? Something else seems to think differently," and he pulls away, looking downward. Lime peers down as well, and blushes hard at the sight of his own cock standing at full attention, poking his friend in the belly. Tang' chuckles again at his reaction. "Hadn't you noticed it?"

"No...my mind's too far scattered, I guess..."

"Yeah, I suppose that's understandable. My question still stands, however. Can it really wait?"

"I...umm...well..." Lime stammers for a response, his eyes darting about, avoiding his orange companion's gaze.

"How about this: just let me start, and if at any point you get weirded out or too uncomfortable, you can stop me."

"Oh...well...I suppose that'll work, yeah..." he replies, quietly, nervously, throwing in another of his tiny nods.

Tang' nods back. "Okay. You just enjoy yourself, and leave the work to me." With this he embraces his friend again, rubbing his paws along Lime's back, eliciting a quiet sigh from the green yoshi. Lime can't help but become relaxed under the attention, and he sighs again as Tang's paws slide around to stroke at his chest. The attention is suddenly punctuated, however, as Tang' pulls Lime to the living room, setting him on the couch, where he plops down beside him and continues.

Lime just sits, head tilted back, eyes closed, blush twinging his cheeks. Orange paws continue to massage his chest, and after a few moments slip downward to his belly, eliciting further sighs of the utmost content from him. Thoroughly enjoying himself as well, Tang' happily rubs at Lime's belly, though his eyes are intently locked on the hard piece of yoshi meat standing up just below. At length he grows tired of waiting, and one paw slides steadily lower, causing Lime to tremble with anticipation. His cock throbs with the same, but neither have to wait long. His entire body stiffens, and he draws a sharp, hissing breath, as Tang' traces a finger up its length. That breath soon escapes as a long groan as the finger pokes into his foreskin, tracing around the concealed ridge of the head, his toes curling with delight at the sensation. Taking that as a sign of approval, he slides his paw back down, gripping the hot shaft at its base and pulling downward, watching the skin slide down off the head, much to Lime's enjoyment. The utterly slow pace driving him nuts, his paws clench at the fabric of the couch, and his throbbing cock begins to seep sticky precum at a steady rate. Noticing this, Tang' slides his paw down, keeping the head exposed, and wraps the other around it, twisting with a firm grip. At this, Lime lets out a sudden, sharp whine, his hips bucking up against Tang's paws. The orange yoshi quickly releases him, an amused look on his face as Lime pants hard, relaxing again.

"Wow, Tangie...you just about made me cum there," he pants, and the orange one grins.

"Next time I won't stop then," he replies, sliding his paw down it again, head to base, slickening the entire length. Lime throws his head back again, panting heavily, cock leaking copiously into Tang's slowly milking paw.

"Oh...oh Tangie...please don't stop..." he whines hotly. The orange yoshi complies, keeping a slow, steady pace going.

"Go on, Lime...cum for me, buddy," he urges. It doesn't take much more than that to set him off. His breath catches; his entire body shakes with the final buildup, and then he cums hard. He cries out as the first spurt of spooge bursts forth, arcing high in to the air before splattering against his heaving chest, then follows with a cacophony of whines and moans as his nuts continue to empty themselves onto his chest, cock, and Tang's paw. The orange yoshi continues to work his pulsing shaft, stopping only once Lime's limbs go lip, cock slowly deflating, lungs taking great gulps of air.

Tang simply chuckles, rather knowingly. "Hmm, I'd say someone enjoyed that, eh?"

"Yes...oh thank you, Tangie...that was absolutely great," he pants, gazing at his friend, eyes slightly out of focus.

His orange friend smiles back happily. "So, how would you feel about doing me?"

"Huh? Oh, yeah...well, I suppose it's only fair..."

"Hey, now if you don't want to-"

"But I do," he interjects, and repositions himself, bringing his face up close to Tang's throbbing member, studying it carefully. "Oh wow...I never realized how much longer and thicker you are than me," he says, earning an embarrassed giggle from above. Tentatively, he reaches forward, curling a paw lightly around it, slightly amazed at its heat. Tang' lets out a slow sigh at the touch, half-lidded eyes watching his friend work his needy shaft.

"Oh Lime...you have no idea how long I've wished this could happen..." he says softly, getting a slightly nervous chuckle back. The green yoshi picks up a steady stroking rhythm, interestedly watching the foreskin slide up and down the fleshy pink head, having never seen it from such an angle. Tang' moans out softly, completely lost in the pleasure, unaware of the fact that Lime is still studying his cock intently, pondering other ideas.

"It's so close...and not really that different than mine, despite being a lot bigger...maybe just a little lick...couldn't hurt..." Still within Tang's relative oblivity, he flicks his tongue out, removes his paw from the hard shaft, and gives a quick slurp to its entire length.

At once, Tang's eyes snap open, and he gasps sharply, taken by complete surprise. He looks down at lime to find him grinning back up at him. "Wow...you sure are full of surprises today, aren't you?"

Lime blushes instantly and nods. "Well...I've done it to myself...and figured yours wouldn't be much different," he explains. "Which it's not, by the way," and then he slurps it again eagerly. Tang' gasps again, his cock twitching against the prehensile muscle.

"Well...I've certainly no argument...by all means, do as you please..."

A third lick has him tossing his head back in ecstasy, toes and fingers curling, eyes clenching shut. Then, he feels it coiling around his entire length, and he can't help but whimper. "Oh gods, Lime...keep it up, please..."

The green yoshi gladly complies, working his tongue all over Tang's shaft firmly. It isn't long before he's bucking and drooling into the coil of wet muscle, whimpering loudly. "Oh...oh Lime...here it comes..."

Instinctively, he pulls his head back, which only serves to aim Tang's bulging shaft directly at his nose, which takes the first jet of spooge directly. Lime cringes and jerks upward, and the second spurt rockets right into his open mouth. Spluttering, he cranes his head downward, unable to escape, and takes the rest of Tangerine's orgasm across his face. After being thoroughly doused in Tang's cum, the orange yoshi finally goes limp, and Lime retracts his tongue and sits back. At length, after laying there panting for a while, Tang' opens his eyes, and chuckles at the sight. "Oh, Lime, I'm sorry...you really didn't have to hang on through that, though..."

Lime shakes his head in response. "No, it's okay...it wasn't that bad, really. You just know how I am, though."

Tang' chuckles and nods. "Mind if I help you out with that?" He gets a nod in response, and he then sits up, flicking his own tongue out to lap at his own fluids coating his green friend's face. Lime sits and puts up with it, eyes clenched shut, but pulls away when the tongue traces down the side of his face, opting to wipe the rest away from near his mouth with a paw.

"Sorry," he says with an apologetic look in reply to Tang's inquisitive look.

"No, don't be. It's your call, after all."

Lime smiles, then leans forward and hugs his orange friend tightly. "Hey...about the dreams earlier. Well, they were about us...but I think they were bad because I was just really scared and nervous. I didn't know how it was going to turn out," he explains.

Tang' squeezes him back. "I had a feeling...but what do you think? Did you find it tolerable?"

Lime chuckles. "Oh, more than tolerable, Tangie. You've showed me something I'd never thought could be so enjoyable...I think I could get used to it."

"Hehe...well, I'm glad you liked it so much. I was really worried myself that you wouldn't...but all that aside, if I know you at all, you're practically itching to get in the shower to clean up."

Pulling away, Lime nods, grinning. "You don't mind, do you?"

Tang' smiles at him and shakes his head. "No, not at all. Go right ahead."

Lime smiles back, then hops up and toddles off to the bathroom, leaving a somewhat amazed Tangerine to sit on the couch, basking in the afterglow of what had just taken place, his unfocused gaze drifting out the window. Outside, the storm is finally beginning to clear; the rain lets up, and rays of sunlight pierce through the cloud layer, and a blanket of peace slowly rolls over the forest once again.", "pools_count": 0, "title": "Fruits", "deleted": "f", "public": "t", "mimetype": "text/plain", "pagecount": "1", "rating_id": "2", "rating_name": "Adult", "ratings": [ { "content_tag_id": "4", "name": "Sexual Themes", "description": "Erotic imagery, sexual activity or arousal", "rating_id": "2" } ], "submission_type_id": "12", "type_name": "Writing - Document", "guest_block": "t", "friends_only": "f", "comments_count": "4", "views": "571" }
