39 9.1 Pillow Talk Under The Stars

We find Stanley and Ezraphel in the same position they usually end up in when alone together with nothing in particular to do nowadays. That is, laid out butt naked and sweaty with an overwhelming air of satisfaction between them. Tonight however they switch things up by camping out in the backyard laying on an extra thick futon to soak in the cool air while gazing at the darkened sky and wondering to themselves just when it actually got dark.

Now that he wasn't in any danger of losing his sense of self through corruption and actually had the ability to meet the sexual demands of Ezraphel Stanley has more or less embraced his new role as the thirst quencher for his Lilim girlfriend. Sex has now become a major part of his life and Stanley can say with the utmost certainty that it was a much welcomed change.

When people say sex relieves stress he thought they meant cumming since there was always that release of pressure from the act but that wasn't the case. Sex, the act of love making or just plain old fucking was damn therapeutic in a way masturbation just could not compare. Also there is nothing on this earth that can compare to the sensation nutting inside Ezraphel.

Straight up!

He is pretty sure that not even guys who got their virginity taken by other Mamono experience what he did with Ezraphel. Their first time in particular was still vivid in his mind and stuck out as something special despite the numerous times they did it afterwards. The first time Stanley came inside Ezraphel he experienced a Doctor-Strange-type out of body experience where his mind ascended to the higher realms and Stanley, he shit you not, actually saw God.

Whether it was A God, The God or a fucking ROB he did not know but this higher being (who looked less like a person and more like a humanoid silhouette comprised of stars and galaxies) met Stanley's gaze for a brief moment before chucking up a deuces. Then Stanley fell back through the cosmos and into his mind again. When he came to he realized he had been gone for a literal minute and Ezraphel hadn't noticed but that was only because he was still cumming inside of her.

Stanley never told Ezraphel about his experience. It was partly because he didn't fully believe it was real and partly because he was high on life right now and questions on the existence of a hypothetical supreme being would just harsh his buzz.

Ezraphel was also high on life right now as over two months of hard work and tedious drama culminated into what has become the best two weeks of her life. The most satisfying part of this all was that she didn't even need to use any charm spells (not that she would). This vigorous sex marathon was all her Stanley's idea as he took advantage of the 'full access' she gave him to make some of the oddest yet undeniably delectable suggestions to spice up their Honeymoon.

After the initial 'marathon phase' as he called it, they were able to control themselves enough to not spend days having sex with reckless abandon. Not that they don't have sex all the time, it's that now they don't lose themselves in the process…for the most part. As wonderful and fantastical as having sex for days on end sounded on paper the reality of such a thing is unfortunately a lot less so. No matter how much Mamono are able to survive and thrive on spirit energy the same could not be said for humans or even Incubi with demonic energy.

While Mamono mana can revitalize a man's spirit energy and ignite their sex drive, humans and by extension Incubi aren't built like Mamono and thus with each subsequent absorption of demonic energy there is a diminishing returns effect on their stamina and mental faculties. Also, no matter how miraculous demonic energy may seem it cannot be substituted for food and water.

In the case of Mamono while it is rare for the average Mamono to experience it, there is such a thing as too much spirit energy. Different species of Mamono can handle different amounts of Spirit Energy intake and it really depends on how quickly that species (or individual) can process the spirit energy into demonic energy and add it to their reserves. As a Lilim Ezraphel can do this rather quickly but even for her having too much before she could process would result in what the Succubi refer to as getting 'cum drunk'.

It is exactly what it sounds like and yes, Mamono can literally get drunk on cum.

It lasts for about as long as it takes said Mamono to process the excess spirit energy and if it turns out she can't then it is advisable for her stop or seek medical attention. Of course pausing long enough for a Mamono to process this spirit energy or worse, stopping outright, is made more difficult due to the mamono herself. Being 'cum drunk' is one of the most addictive feelings a mamono could go through and they are usually very insistent on staying that way for as long as possible. At that stage their partner (or partners) would be hard pressed to stop the Mamono or even themselves from indulging further.

Ezraphel had the absolute pleasure of being in this state several times throughout the week and it was only through her constitution and Stanley's assertion on moderation that allowed her come down from that most glorious high. And speaking of being high, even without the excess spirit energy Ezraphel was feeling rather 'high' on the tingling between her thighs right now.

The Lilim was at last content with her life, at least that should have been the case yet for some reason she could not help but feel something was missing from all this. For the life of her Ezraphel could not put her finger on it though, for what could be missing? She and Stanley had reaffirmed their love for each other, there were no personal walls between them and they have hot, sticky and lovey dovey sex every day.

Really, what else could she possibly be missing?

Whatever it is she could sense the discontent in her Stanley as well. It was the reason why she was thinking about this so much! The question isn't 'what does Ezraphel think is missing in this relationship?' it's 'what does Stanley think is missing in their relationship?' and it was driving her up the walls since he kept pondering about it.

"Hey Ez?"

"Yes, my love?"

"Ever feel like there's something missing?"

'Oh gods, here it comes'

"I don't understand what you mean?" she lied a bit nervously.

He did not make mention of her tone and continued to stare into the sky "I mean, you think we're moving too fast with our relationship?"

Somewhere in the background of the Lilim's mind the chibi Ezraphel that had been soaring through the sky in content caught turbulence got struck by holy lightning and crashed in a burning heap like a scene straight out of a cartoon.

On the inside she went 'WHAT!?'

On The outside she gave a forced smile "w-what are you saying Stanley, we are not going too fast."

If anything they weren't going fast enough.

"Yeah no I think we're definitely going too fast."

'WHY!?' she internally cried.

"We skipped a few things."

The internal crying paused 'huh?'

"Huh?"

"We've never even been on a date."

Ezraphel opened her mouth, closed it then opened it again with a tentative question "date?"

"Yeah" he gave her a look "don't they have dates in your world" he paused "what would you call it, courtship?"

"I know what a date is Stanley. We do have those…" she trailed off.

"Oh, I'm surprised you didn't even try to plan some kind of romantic evening together."

Of course Ezraphel would have gotten around to doing that but "we are on our Honeymoon. Couples do not usually go on romantic outings until after this."

"I'm pretty sure a Honeymoon is the perfect opportunity to go on romantic outings Ez."

"…not for Mamono."

"Okay now I know you're making that up."

"Am not!"

"Are too. Mamono go on about love so much why wouldn't they go out on dates for their honeymoon?"

"Because then they wouldn't have time to get to know each other…by having lots of sex."

"…"

"…"

"Wow."

"What?"

"Nothing, just…your culture is really weird."

"Your culture is 'really weird' Stanley" she retorted with a huff.

"Wait do you mean 'my' culture as in Earth or just human culture in general?"

"Yes!"

"…okay I'll give you that" he admitted easily enough.

"Hah!"

"But you seriously don't see how ridiculous a relationship is when the couple starts off with sex first then get to know each other after they're married?"

Ezraphel was confused now "what is so ridiculous about it? Mamono have the ability to instinctively choose the right partner to suite their taste and are able to further adapt to their partner's personality traits afterwards."

"And if their partner turns out to be the worst person?"

Ezraphel gave a mysterious smile "we have our ways."

"You use magic to alter their personalities then" he spoke it as if stating a fact with no particular emotion or malice behind it.

Ezraphel winced knowing how he is against tampering with someone's mind "I was referring more to our presence having a positive effect on men. Even without magic men cannot help but fall prey to our charms, we are more than just 'fiends' using magic to entrap men and have our way with them Stanley, we have an instinctive near mastery of the art of seduction."

"Is that what happened to me?"

Ezraphel gave a coquettish grin "why? You mad?"

He gave her a brief deadpan stare from the corner of his eye before looking back up at the sky "I guess not but you do use magic to alter a man's perception if he isn't to your liking."

Ezraphel lost her grin "I will admit that there are Mamono who are less respectful of a human's individuality and will freely use magic to alter their mind to suite their taste"

'Or for their own amusement' Ezraphel thought whilst the memories of a Mindflayer came to forefront of her thoughts.

Perishing those thoughts Ezraphel continued "in some instances altering their minds is the best for everyone" she defended "would you rather have a psychopath influence a naïve yet powerful Mamono?"

Stanley's mind immediately went to a Joker/Harley Quinn situation where the 'Harley Quinn' is a powerful Mamono who could do a lot of damage if influenced by her 'Joker' Husband to commit atrocities.

"Point"

"Anyway that was not what we were originally talking about" she said with a huff.

"Oh and what were we talking about?"

She gave a coy smile "you were about to ask me out on a date."

"Really? That doesn't sound like something I would do" he replied conversationally while adopting a pondering look "nope I don't think I was going to do that, Ez"

"Yes. You. Were~" she sang with teasing smirk.

"Nooo" he dragged out "I was asking why you haven't taken me out on a date."

Ezraphel's jaw dropped and she sputtered somewhat "i-it is tradition for the men to take the women out for a romantic evening."

Stanley gave a shit eating grin and spoke in with an announcers voice "welcome to Earth where Women's Rights, Gender Equality and Fem Nazis have made it so that I can have my wife take me out on a date without taking any blows to my manhood. Also I'm paying for it either way so…" he paused to stretch "manhood secured~"

"…I was correct in my earlier words, your culture is weird."

"Ezraphel you know me" his eyes narrowed "you probably know more about me than I am comfortable with."

"I have no idea what you mean" she said diverting her eyes.

He didn't believe her one bit, even he would notice there was something afoot with how in sync she seemed to be with his thoughts lately.

"Anyway, I already told you how terrible I am with relationships. A romantic date is impossible for me" in that he has no motivation to even attempt to plan such a thing.

"Then why mention it at all?" she was quite content without knowing that.

"Because I cannot help but want to have some form of normalcy in this relationship" despite also being somewhat content.

"I did not expect this from you Stanley" that is, making an effort to bring something to the relationship that would inconvenience him.

"Me neither" he agreed "I guess this is just one of those things where you have to experience it for yourself to really know what you'd do."

If this was pre-relationship/virgin Stanley he would have said he would be content with the sex and not bother dating if he didn't have to.

"I still believe you should be the one to take me out Stanley."

"I hear your words and so I would like to present my counterpoint" he paused dramatically "we could plan our date, together?"

"That…is a wonderful idea~" she gushed and gave him a kiss.

"I know…"

Stanley wasn't going to take on the arduous task of actually planning something romantic. He swore to himself at the beginning that he would not stress about stuff in this relationship and just have Ezraphel lead. Then he realized he would be the one to pay for whatever inane and expensive thing Ezraphel suggested and so thought up a compromise that would be less taxing on his wallet.

"I think my work here is done" he made to sit up only for a sinuous tail to wrap around his torso and drag him back down. Once down Ezraphel straddled and loomed over him like a sexy specter of the night.

"Now who said your 'job' was finished Stanley~"

Oh shit she was giving him the look.

Stanley started sputtering "o-oh come on Ez! I came like nine times just now! What time is it anyway?"

In response she conjured a clock "7:47pm" she said before tossing the electronic to give the trapped man beneath her a salacious grin "that means we have 4 hours and 13 minutes to work on breaking your record before the day is officially over~" she sang cheerily.

"B-but that's impossible" he whimpered.

Two hands caressed either side of his face "do not worry Stanley, I believe in you."

"That is not-oooh~" his retort cut midway into a moan as he felt himself slip into her, a feeling that he will never get used to.

Ezraphel was in rapture "ah~ back where you belong and I won't let you go until you break that record~"

"But you said-ah~" again he was cut off when she started bouncing.

"I believe in you! Go for ten Stanley! GO.FOR.TEN~"
