Ur was trying to be gentle. She was trying to be reasonable. She was really, really trying. "I need to speak to her," she repeated, even more urgently, to the knight standing in front of her.
"She does not wish to see you."
"I'm her mother!" Ur said, fists clenched at either side of her as she restrained the urge to simply freeze the man and go past him. "I haven't - I've thought she was dead until very recently. I need to speak to her."
"It isn't my business what your relationship is. I just follow orders. If she doesn't want to speak with you, that's the end of it, as far as I'm concerned."
"Please," came Erza's voice, the scarlet-haired youth laying one hand on her shoulder and stepping forward. "I happen to be an expert on diplomacy of this sort, Ur. Allow me." Unsure, Ur took a step back. She did wonder how the Fairy Tail wizard would manage this. For a long moment, she simply stared down the man, her gaze seeming to pierce into his very soul, the air growing thick with tension. Even the Rune Knight seemed to sense it, his fingers taut around his weapon at his side. "I understand you are simply being loyal to your commanding officer," Erza said. "But, please."
That was all she said - just 'please.' It wasn't a threat, or a plea. It was simply a politeness accompanying the silent repetition of her earlier request. "I can't do that."
"Not even for Titania, an S-Class wizard, and Ur, who defeated Deliora and could have been one of the Ten Wizard Saints?" She asked, gesturing to Ur with emphasis.
"No. In fact, specifically, it is Ur who is not allowed in."
"I see. That truly is unfortunate." Erza's head bowed low. "Forgive me, Ur. It would appear I have failed to arrange a proper meeting between mother and daughter."
That... was her whole plan? Say please? Repeat their names and titles?
Ur's bafflement was cut off as Erza simply brought one powerful fist directly into the man's stomach, instantly sending him crumpled into the corner. Ah, that made more sense - she had been planning to hit him all along.
Her fist shook in the air in the aftermath, her lips a thin line. Her expression was one of pure torment, like a young woman trying to do the right thing and finding herself unsure if she truly was doing it. Then she spoke: "I just don't understand why my diplomacy failed."
"I..." Ur just shook her head. "I need to see my daughter."
"Yes, of course. I will remain outside, and meditate on what I could have done better," Erza said, moving out of the way.
Ur just swallowed, staring at the door. She had thought her daughter was dead, struggled to reach this point. Her hand stretched out for the knob, and she twisted it in the most laconic manner possible, before the door finally swung open. "Ultear," she said, stepping inside with a firmness that was halfway affected. She knew why Ultear didn't want to see her. She'd failed her daughter - the one person she never should have failed. She had known deep down that she wasn't really dead, and she had accepted the lies she was told anyway. Just thinking about it made something deep inside her ache, but she needed to see her daughter again. Even if she'd never love her again, she wanted to see with her own eyes the daughter she loved.
Ultear stared at her, her expression sharp. It was impossible to confuse the young woman for anyone but her own daughter - dark hair, a similar facial structure. She seemed more traditional, more elegant, than Ur had honestly expected from her daughter. But that was something special, something pleasant. Just like seeing Gray all grown up, or Lyon. More like Gray than Lyon. Even without her, her daughter had managed to become an accomplished young woman, a member of the magic council.
"Ultear. I am so sorry," Ur said. Words failed her then, and Ultear took advantage of the silence.
"Sorry for what?" The way she asked it wasn't kind, or curious. It was contemptuous. She already knew what Ur had done wrong and she hated her for it. Wringing the words out of her was just a way of expressing that hate - and Ur couldn't blame her.
"For abandoning you, for not realizing the truth - I was told that you were dead, that your body had been destroyed by the magic that had made you sick, but I should have known. I should have done whatever it took to find you again."
"You should have." Ultear's lips were a thin line, her expression baleful. "Instead, you just replaced me."
"I never replaced you," Ur said, pressing her fist against her chest. "No one could ever replace you, Ultear."
"I saw them. I escaped, and I came back to you, like a stupid child, and I saw you with your new children."
"I- you should have stayed," Ur said. "Gray and Lyon were never replacements for you. They were orphaned children I took care of, because I love them too. I think you would have gotten on well. We actually all reunited recently, thanks to Lee, and-"
"I've said what I had to say. Get out." Ultear snapped the words out in a way that left no ambiguity in them.
Ur hesitated just a moment, then nodded. If her daughter didn't want to speak to her, then she couldn't make her. "I'm truly sorry for not saving you," she said, bowing her head. "I know I'll regret it until the day I die," she added, as she closed the door behind her.
Erza was pacing back and forth in front of the door, and looked up at Ur as the door snapped shut. "I think," Erza said, "that I could have made a more persuasive argument, if I had asked Lee for assistance in putting one together. He is very persuasive, which is how he managed to persuade both myself and Konata to become his lovers. I am sure he could teach me very well."
That did sound like Lee, from what little Ur knew of the young man, so she just let out a small laugh. "I'm sorry to have dragged you out on this fool's errand."
"It wasn't a fool's errand," Erza said, placing one hand on Ur's shoulder, fixing her with a serious look. "You may not have had success in reconciling with your daughter today, but perhaps with time, she will come to forgive you. Becoming aware of your revival would have been quite emotionally tumultuous."
"Thank you," Ur said, but she knew it was false and just shook her head. "She- she said she escaped. That she saw me again, after the last time I saw her. She won't forgive me."
"Did she say that, Ur?"
"Say what?"
"Say that she would never forgive you."
"...no," Ur admitted.
"Then there you have it," Erza said, clapping her on the shoulder. "Now, when we get back, you promised to assist me in packing for a picnic with Lee. I was thinking of taking just the bare essentials. For example, the tablecloth, several sandwiches in a wide variety of types, a parasol in case it is too sunny and an umbrella in case it rains, as well as raincoats and waterproof blankets, and..." Erza kept listing out things like that for a good ten minutes or so. Ur could already feel her back aching.

Juvia greatly enjoyed giving Lee head, for many reasons. She loved to see her beloved writhe and wriggle in pleasure as she did her hardest to make him feel good. Knowing that she was the one who was making him feel so good was a point of pride! There was also his taste, which was peculiar and specific and could only belong to her beloved Lee's cock. She could also feel his pulse even more intensely, when his length was lodged in her throat, each pump of his heart like a sweet serenade only she could hear. And, of course, there was the way it was a completely selfless way to show love! She didn't even mind fellating her beloved Lee while Konata was still sleeping, curled up beside him, because she realized that it was a way of silently declaring that Konata was the inferior woman! Where she lazed about and thought only of her own pleasure when she did make love to Lee, Juvia was up bright and early to cook for and pleasure her beloved Lee!
Perhaps one day he would even realize he definitely didn't need Konata, and that he could make do with just her and Levy! (Levy was too nice to hope that her beloved Lee would realize that he was Juvia's perfect soulmate and hers alone - Levy would be hurt by hearing something like that, even if it was true. But if he did one day realize that, she would offer Levy her support as a friend.)
There was a heavy pounding at the front door, but Juvia ignored it. She was pleasuring her beloved Lee, and he certainly wasn't stopping her! On the contrary, his fingers were gently running through her hair, a loving motion that told her she was making him very happy! She slurped noisily on his cock, knowing that he enjoyed it when her fellatio was particularly loud! (She also liked it, particularly since it meant that Konata, that hussy, would wake up and have to see another woman with her beloved Lee! Perhaps one day she would realize that Juvia was the better woman by far and stop bothering her beloved Lee!)
Whoever was at the door started yelling into the house, but Juvia did her best to make even more noise with her mouth as she lovingly pleasured his cock. She couldn't understand whatever it was that whoever it was was yelling, thanks to the sound, and judging by the way that Lee began to groan and buck his hips in response to her hard work, he was also equally distracted.
That's why, as she held herself down in his groin, nose pressed into his pelvis, both of them were surprised as Erza Scarlet suddenly appeared in the doorway, kicking it down fiercely.
* * *
Erza's knocking and shouting had roused the attention of neither Lee nor her "co-lover" Konata. She had started to become concerned, but even when she shouted that if anything was the matter, Lee should say something, she got no response. After banging on windows, asking if Lee was well, she couldn't help herself. If her guildmate and lover was lying on the floor, having suffered some medical malady, she would never forgive herself for refusing to check on him simply out of propriety. She burst through the door and rushed right to his bedroom. "Lee?!" She shouted, more on instinct the moment she had forced the door out of her way than out of any rational thought.
Rather than Lee lying on the floor, unconscious and dying - or, on slightly further thought, simply absent from his home altogether - he was instead in bed with a strange woman - no, the former Element 4 girl, Juvia - who had her face buried inside his groin. The girl in question glanced her way, and Erza simply paused awkwardly, standing in the doorway. She had never experienced something like this... she had cared for this man, even accepted him having a second lover, and the moment she had gone out of his sight, he had been forced to take on another woman as his lover to replace her! She was such a fool to imagine she could leave him alone. This was all her fault. She had left her lover alone, unfulfilled, with only Konata for company... there was simply no way to say that it wasn't her fault.
She did not regret leaving to help Ur with meeting her daughter, of course. She was a comrade, even if she had not joined Fairy Tail (yet; Erza did hope that she would, in time). If her failure to be there for Lee left him unable to feel satisfied and satiated, then she would just have to do better in the future. Perhaps she should have brought him along?
Juvia was very impressive, though! Despite the fact that Erza had been staring at the scene for what must have been at least a minute, she was still buried in Lee's groin. Her eyes were on Erza instead of on Lee, as if a child who had been discovered in the midst of her wrongdoing...
"Erza," Lee began, perhaps intending to explain his circumstances, then his voice escaped him as Juvia made a loud sucking sound around his cock, his whole body trembling with pleasure.
"There is no need to explain yourself. Clearly, by abandoning you for such a sustained period, you were left in need of companionship, and in Juvia, you have clearly found a very loving companion. I only wish I could have been here for you." Juvia's eyes were watering, as she had yet to remove her mouth from Lee's groin, in a very impressive show of dedication.
"You cannot -hn- blame yourself for this, Erza. I truly wished to add Juvia and Levy to my list of lovers."
Erza was left in deep emotional turmoil for the moment. Her beloved Lee... had chosen to take on another woman. No, two women! She had been insufficient to please him, even with Konata already present. She could understand, of course - his talent as a lover was incredible, his endurance that of divine power. (When she had said as much, he even laughed and joked that it was the truth; his religious beliefs were quite strange, but, she was more than happy to accept them as uniquely his.) But it did leave her heart aching with longing, and yet also inflamed her between her loins, as if this emotionally destructive situation was also one full of eroticism.
She chose not to dwell on those feelings, though, instead rushing forward to where Juvia was still maintaining her firm grip on Lee's cock. She grasped the other girl by the hair and began peeling her off. Juvia resisted, but Erza was incredibly strong, so after a second or two of squirming on Juvia's part, her mouth popped free of Lee's cock. Erza promptly swooped forward to take him into her mouth. She had done this before, and she could do it again. She drove her face down into his groin, closing her eyes and using Requip to switch into something rather more sensual than her armor, a set of red lacy lingerie which she had selected (with some assistance from Ur).
Lee groaned in pleasure at that, and for whatever reason, the pulsing in between her thighs changed in its particular texture for just a few seconds - then Juvia suddenly leapt into action, positioning herself between Lee's thigh and cock, suckling on his balls, their faces absently brushing against one another. The strange (but, admittedly, quite pleasant and intense) throbbing between her legs grew more intense, so much so that her thighs began to wobble with desire.
Konata, whose naked body was draped across Lee's, mumbled softly as if she was just waking up. Her eyes fluttered open, and she looked down at Erza as she yawned. Erza could feel her cheeks becoming as red as her hair, as Konata took in the sight of her, on her hands and knees beneath Lee, forced to share the task of pleasing his cock with another woman she had hardly gotten the chance to know. She could no longer resist the urge that had been building inside her, and she reached one hand down between her legs, beginning to shamefully masturbate as she sucked on Lee's cock.
Lee's fingers had been stroking through her hair with a soft, almost tentative reassurance, as if he truly had never meant to hurt her. Now that she was masturbating, though, he had begun to gather her red hair up into a long ponytail, kindly working to keep it out of her eyes. His grip held her down, grinding her into his pelvis, his hips occasionally bucking up against her face as Juvia had to work hard to continue to lick and suck on his balls. The rough treatment only intensified Erza's arousal, and her hand began to move frantically inside her sex, the wetness that was developing far greater than any she had ever known when masturbating on her own.
Lee suddenly began to pump her up and down his cock. She could have easily defeated his meager strength with her own, but she didn't, allowing him to frantically fuck her face, claiming her throat for his own, despite having clearly done the same with Juvia only a scant minute before. That thought was what drove Erza over the edge, a low moan escaping her throat even as it was repeatedly cut off by the thick feeling of Lee's cock inside her mouth, her whole body twitching as the overpowering wave of pleasure took her to heaven.
"Mmm... what a maso," Konata mumbled lazily against Lee's chest, as she continued to cling to him. Somehow, despite the fact that she did not know what that word meant, and that Konata clearly said it with contempt, Erza's own orgasm became even more intense, her eyes crossing. Lee did not let up even for a moment, despoiling her throat for his own selfish pleasure. Even Juvia seemed shocked, pulling away to watch as Erza's mouth was used roughly and thoroughly by the man she loved.
Then, suddenly, she felt that thick, sticky cream of Lee's burst forth from his cock, spraying across the inside of her mouth. It clung to her palate, stained the back of her throat, made her eyes cross in pleasure as her thighs continued to wobble in the midst of an intense and powerful orgasm. Her fingers remained plunged inside her as he simply ejaculated, so much and so forthfully that it filled her mouth, that some burst forth from her lips to spray down across his cock, hitting his thigh, the bed beneath him, his pelvis.
Juvia responded to that by hungrily moving to lick up every last droplet she could get to, noisily slurping on Lee's bare flesh as she did so. When he was at last finished, Lee gently pulled Erza off his length, lying her down to rest on her side, head against his thigh as she panted. Watching Juvia clean his cock with her mouth and tongue, slurping and lapping at his bare flesh, only made her hand inside her groin grow more frantic, as if it had a mind all its own. She watched in silence as she recovered from that incredibly intense orgasm, as Juvia ran her lips and tongue up to the tip of his cock, and then back down to the base, nuzzling at his thighs.
* * *
My divinely-blessed sexual instincts had seemed to do their part to satisfy Erza's particular needs. I had worried when she had arrived on the scene unexpectedly - Juvia's fellatio was quite intense, loud, and very distracting. But it appeared that she enjoyed threesomes to an even greater extent than I, an incredible feat befitting a woman of her stature. As Juvia lazily licked me clean, and I gently pet both women to reassure them of my tender affection for both, Erza spoke.
"Ah! Lee! I had hoped that we could go - on a picnic together. I had even brought what was we need, over... but if you would rather stay in bed, then we can do that instead."
Despite her words, it was clear to me she had truly been looking forward to a picnic, so before Juvia could begin a second blowjob, I gripped her blue hair and forcefully placed her in a position on my other thigh, mirroring where Erza was. For a moment I stared down at both beautiful women, Juvia naked, Erza in some incredibly sexy yet tasteful red lingerie, and then I spoke. "Certainly. Where are the things necessary?" I asked. "I shall get myself dressed." I then had to disentangle myself from no less than three women who clung and laid across me.
"It's right outside," Erza said, Requiping herself back into her armor and dusting herself off. Juvia slipped away as well, starting to search for her clothes. I idly tossed her bra and panties to one side so she could actually find them (I had taken them off at some point during her early morning fellatio, which she had actually arrived to in her underwear, and hidden them beneath my pillow).
"Then let us embark on this grand adventure!" I said, hurriedly using my time manipulation magic to cleanse my body of any exhaustion and sweat, then again to get myself dressed. Erza took my hand in hers, simultaneously fierce and loving, dragging me alongside her to the front of my home.
Towering above me, wide as a SUV is long, stood a great pile of luggage. I stared at it in silence for a moment, then Juvia burst through the door. "Please, allow me to come with you, Lee! I promise to be appropriately kind to Erza as long as she doesn't try to steal you away from me!"
"Erza?" I asked Erza who turned to me. "Can Juvia join us?"
"Of course. She is my guildmate! This is a special day, Juvia - it will be my first picnic!"
"Ah! It will be my first picnic too!" Juvia agreed instantly, turning to me, eyes hopeful.
"It will be mine as well," I agreed easily. It would, so far as I remembered. "Luckily, I think that Erza brought enough with her for the three of us to have a picnic together."
"Mmuh," came a voice from the house. "Four of us," Konata said, wiping at her eyes, having gotten dressed. Juvia gave her a glare and a pout but didn't argue.
"All the better!" I declared, before the two could begin to antagonize one another unduly. "Fortunately, the great Erza Scarlet has prepared more than enough for all four of us," I said, gesturing to the great pile of luggage that Erza had brought along.
"Oh, no," Erza said, shaking her head solemnly. "This is only just barely enough for the two of us. I will have to prepare even more if this shall be a four person picnic! I apologize for not anticipating this possibility when I came home. It should have been easy to predict that you would have taken on another lover while I was gone, and both she and Konata would want to join us for our first picnic!"
She began dragging the luggage behind her. Despite its size, her pace was exactly the same as if she had been walking unencumbered.
