Max Intel: Melinoe
Chapter 6 - Goat
Max opened her eyes and the first glorious thoughts in her mind were of the women in her life now lying next to her. She held the two lovely visions in her arms and Max listened contentedly to their breathing as they slept.
Max felt so good about the fact they were now both with her; she also felt a strong desire to protect them and keep them safe.
In that regard, Max felt she could do better: she really needed data on Int Ops. Specifically, her status needed clarification so she could figure out what she needed to do to keep both of her ladies safe.
Her ladies... her family.
Max felt her wife stirring, so she looked her way and watched her yawn widely. Grass-green eyes tried to focus, then looked at Max.
She smiled. That smile melted Max's heart every time.
Joon kissed the breast she had snuggled up even closer to.
Max craned her neck and kissed Joon on the forehead. "Good morning, my love," Max whispered, "how do you feel?"
Joon winced a little, and whispered, "Kind of sore, I may have gone a little overboard last night."
Max made a comforting face and hugged her gently. Max whispered, "You looked amazing."
Joon smiled as she moved up to kiss Max, "So did you, I really enjoyed seeing you ride Ag's face like that."
They both heard purring and looked over at the steel-grey gilded with silver cat-eyes of their girlfriend.
Agatha smiled as she projected waves of affection over her bonds, "Good morning." Joon beamed and moved up further, dragging her large breasts across Max's nipples as she deeply kissed Agatha.
Max carefully cupped her wife's small round ass and was delighted she caused Joon to moan into Agatha's mouth.
When the kiss was finished, Agatha moved up to kiss Max and their tongues swirled briefly.
Joon slipped off the bed and padded to the bathroom and was followed by Max and Agatha a moment later.
During the morning toilet and wash rotation Max began to outline what she wanted to accomplish today and then asked what everyone else wanted to do.
Joon wanted to dig into medical, but offered to help in any way she could.
Agatha was interested in actually shooting firearms, and Max thought it might be possible if they moved deeper into the woods.
"All the guns?" Joon glanced at Max.
"I was going to just use the XR75's," Max responded.
Joon pursed her lips, "I did see some pretty big weapons down there." Joon mused.
Max glanced at her tiny wife, "Are you saying you want to shoot big guns?"
"Oh no, but I would like to watch you do it." Joon smirked, glancing at Agatha.
Agatha smiled at Max.
"We'll see." Max smooched Joon and Agatha.
They headed down to the cargo bay for the morning kata. Max thumbed the DNA lock on the bay door, revealing the dark but brightening forest. The morning chill rolled in as Max, Joon and the four Agatha limbered up.
Max stood tall and bowed.
The others bowed in response and the kata began.
As the kata progressed, Max watched the marked difference with Agatha's form. Joon's expression showed she noticed it too.
Agatha had surpassed Max in form and technique. Max realized she shouldn't be surprised, Agatha had one brief lesson with Howard and was able to absorb his kata.
After the third rotation had concluded and everyone bowed. Max and Joon came together smiling.
"She totally got that from daddy," Joon nodded.
Max agreed, "Yup, her kata is flawless now."
All four Agatha came together and stood before their girlfriends.
"Was that acceptable?" One Agatha asked, with a shade of worry on her face.
Max glanced at her wife.
Joon replied to Agatha, "It was perfect, now we just need to go over actual fighting stances and you'll be set.
Max nodded, "I'll work out something with Howard, It will pay dividends to have him instruct her with combat.
Joon thumbed the cargo door closed, stopping the relentless morning chill: her erect nipples were still sore.
All of them went to hot showers. Max, Joon and one Agatha in one and three Agatha in the other.
Joon commented, "I think we're in trouble if Ags decides to learn everything and take over the Federation.
Agatha gasped and her eyes got huge. "I wouldn't do that! Joon, I swear it!."
Max held up her hands in a calming gesture and a big smile on her face, "It's okay Ags, Joon was just fucking with you."
Agatha blinked, "Oh! okay..."
Joon hugged her girlfriend with a giggle saying, "Just try not to upstage me on guitar. I probably would not take that well."
Joon and Agatha giggled together at her comment as they rinsed themselves off, dried themselves, and dressed. Max wore her soft BDU's and Agatha her black pleated skirt and loose blouse. Joon wore a pretty dark green dress and some suede platform heels.
Everyone enjoyed a hearty breakfast. Joon insisted on making Max's favorite, her father's recipe for pain perdu. Agatha delighted in it.
They all cleaned up together after breakfast, chatting about clothes and accessories. Joon got an excited look on her face and went to the command cabin followed by an Agatha. Joon dug out the bag of stuff from PharMart and showed Agatha four high quality hairbrushes. Agatha beamed as her other bodies came into the command cabin.
Max went to the bridge, eased into the command chair, and started looking around the holonet. There were many scores of operations still underway in the Sol system and so many discussion rooms addressing the Admiralty's failures that Max had to just ignore them in her search to find any mention of the real facts about the TFN status.
She mulled over another reconnoiter of dark corners.
She decided yes, it should be safe because it was sterilized last time she was there.
Max just hoped she wasn't being stupid as she logged in as Ms_Muffit.
Ms_Muffit entered Dark Corners.

Joon was comfortable with people, she even liked most of them. Her music allowed her the opportunity to use her insights into people in general, it also gave her an excuse to observe them more closely without being obvious about it.
Agatha listened to Joon's observations while she was brushing out her long, glossy, beautiful hair.
"Max said there were all kinds of people, good and bad." Agatha stated.
"That's very true, most people fall in between those two labels though, and it can be flexible depending on what they have gone through or are going through."
Joon paused her lecture a moment, "Max did not have a good start in her life. Someone who doesn't know her might only look at her start and her job and say she was a bad person."
Agathas' eyes grew wide, "Max is not a bad person, Joon."
"From our perspective, no of course not," Joon responded. " However, Max did do a lot of bad things for our government."
"It would be difficult for a person to look objectively at what she did in her job and not think of her as a villain."
"Max was not doing those bad things because she liked it or wanted to, she was doing something called duty." Joon's mouth was thin-lipped and serious.
"Her reasons for being a villain, for duty, was to find justice for Deirdre."
Joon smiled, her serious demeanor melted away, "So sometimes good people do bad things, and bad people do good things, you should judge a person by what they have done but try adding the reasons for why they do them as well."
Agatha nodded gaining new insight into humans in general, as well as Max and Joon.
The four Agatha all braided their hair in a display of coordination where they started and finished in unison.
Joon beamed, "I love it when you do stuff like that, it's like a dance.
Agatha happily accepted the compliment.
"I'm going to go on patrol, do some research and go hang out with Max." Agatha announced.
"Great! I'm going to get in trouble in medical," Joon giggled and asked, "Want to help me?"
Agatha went to the bridge, two went to the armory and one Agatha nodded and followed Joon.
Small, but well equipped for a ship this size, the corvette's medical was designed to make use of all available space.
