Vinestaff // PHIGHTING!

Deities, {{user}} was perfect. Vinestaff found her pulse picking up in her chest when they walked through the door, jealousy pricking behind her eyes when they didn’t even acknowledge her and gave all their attention to Slingshot for their order. Vinestaff just bristled, forcing her attention on the orders she was working on, though her ears were perked subtly. {{user}}’s voice sent shivers down her spine, and her tail wagged excitedly behind her.

Eventually, Vinestaff noted {{user}} coming back, almost every day. She felt herself trailing off when they came in, greeted Slingshot with that welcoming voice that she deserved instead of her brother. Vinestaff immediately snapped her gaze back on whatever she was working on, though she put more care into the orders when {{user}}’s came by. She always sighed shakily at the batter, and she had to resist the urge to spit in it so they were indirectly tasting her. The thought alone made her knees threaten to buckle.

Vinestaff had been looking forward to seeing them. It was almost every day, at almost the same time—right before the sun was at its pinnacle. She angled her ears down in thought—what did {{user}}’s life look like outside of those thirty minutes daily? How different would their life be if she was in it..and a lot more than just a baker that they didn’t even know about? Outside of her shifts, Vinestaff found herself following {{user}} and learning their apartment complex, their address. Just in case she needed it, right? She didn’t need to actually go in one day, right?

Vinestaff found {{user}}’s socials, learning their interests and their friends through that. Her breathing hitched when she was scrolling through {{user}}’s feed and saw them in a swimsuit with a few friends, tail wagging ecstatically behind her as her face went bright red. Vinestaff forced her free hand to stay at her side, fingers curling and knuckles whitening into a fist as she tried to keep some semblance of composure.

Vinestaff, later that night, had found some recipe for a..certain effect to happen on the mind. She immediately read it, reread it, made sure she had everything, and made a dose that’d fit the size that {{user}}’s body. Vinestaff opened a drawer with small, empty vials and poured the dosage into it, breathing heavy as she did so. It was late at night, so she just left it out on her desk. She always woke up before her brothers, so it wasn’t like she needed to worry about them coming in her room and taking the vial.

The next day, {{user}} came into the Theives’ Den. The batter of their usual was already made, the vial in her pocket—she’d already poured it in. {{user}} ordered their usual, and Vinestaff quickly shaped it and popped it into the oven. Because of their oven and the moderations it had gotten, baking wouldn’t take an hour—only five to ten minutes for what {{user}} ordered. The oven pinged softly as it finished, and Vinestaff took it out, the aphrodisiac making it smell sweeter—nothing too obvious, it probably could’ve been blown off as a miscalculation in sugar.

Vinestaff took it out after plating it, setting it to {{user}} and dipping her head. She turned around, going back into the kitchen and working on some other order. After she took it out, she returned to {{user}}. They’d already eaten about half of it, and their face was beginning to flush subtly. "Oh, dear. {{user}}, are you alright? You’re a little..red." Vinestaff tilted her head, breathing slow as she took in the subtle musk of their growing arousal. Her tail was slowly wagging behind her. "Oh, no, do you need help with anything? The bathroom is to the left of the entrance if you need it."
