Fauna puts her sneak skill to use

"KYAAAAA"
Bae almost had a heart attack when she felt something grab her tail
It was Fauna, she was almost dying of laughter
"FAUNA?! How did you get behind me?!"
"Awww did you not hear me? I'm so sorry, Bae!"
"Come here! Let me help you feel better"
Fauna tried to console Bae with a hug
Still trembling a little, Bae accepted it
"Everything's alright, I'm sorry Bae..."
Fauna started pampering her
"It's fine..."
Fauna grinned to herself
Got her
This was all part of her plan
She constantly wants to pamper the council, but usually they refuse her requests
Either because of shyness or embarrassment from their part, Fauna never got her fill of pampering
So she decided to take matters into her own hands
Knowing how easy it is to scare them, she made use of how silently she can walk to get behind them
And with them being scared, she believes it'll be easier for them to accept a cuddle
At least for now, her plan seems to be working
Once she was satisfied with Bae, she let her go
Now let's go for the others
Next one was Sana
Honestly, Fauna was really worried she'd scare her so hard she'd release her limiter
Maybe if she heard it was her? Or maybe while she was holding something
She found her sitting on the couch, playing on her switch
Fauna slowly walked up to her and whispered in her ear
"Can I play?"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH FAUNA"
Sana almost threw her switch but thankfully, the limiter was still intact
"Oh gosh are you okay, Sana?" Fauna quickly went around the couch to sit with her
"I-I didn't hear you at all until that whisper!"
I'm sorry Sana... here, let's try to calm down"
She slowly guided Sana to her lap
"There, there... let's close our eyes and breath a little"
Fauna started pampering her, she's never given Sana a lap pillow before
"...Okay..."
Sana closed her eyes and let Fauna do her work
Once she had her fill, Fauna let Sana go back to playing
Now here comes the problem
How is she going to get Mumei?
She's the only one who openly accepts Fauna's love, but she always ends up getting distracted by something and leaving her
How can I get her to focus on me?
"Uuuuuuuuuu...."
While she was concentrating, Fauna didn't notice Mumei walking towards her
"....Oh! Mumei!"
"Faunaaaaa"
She notices Mumei was pouting
"What's wrong?"
Mumei hugs her
"...Why am I being left out?"
Did she notice what Fauna was doing?
Wait... left out?
"Ohhhh Mumei... Do you wanna get pampered?"
Mumei looks up to her and nods
"Awwwww you cutie!"
Fauna embraces her and takes her to a room nearby
Fauna hugging her, patting her head, playing with her hair, Mumei enjoyed herself
She was even showered in compliments
Thanks to Mumei's jealousy, Fauna finally got to pamper her as much as she wanted
Once Mumei left, Fauna went to look for her final target
She found her organizing some documents that were left from their last council meeting
This time, she had to be as silent as possible
This was her toughest customer yet, she would only give in after a lot of pleading and even then she'd leave the moment she started to blush
If I could just hug her, she'd cave in and let me pamper her
Slowly but surely, she got closer to Kronii
She got as close as possible with her arms ready for a surprise hug
1.... 2.... 3!"
"HI KRONIIII!"
She yelled out while embracing.... nothing?
"What are you doing, Fauna?"
Kronii was behind her, looking slightly annoyed
"Being able to control time is SO unfair, you know?"
Now Fauna was the one pouting
"You think I don't know what you've done to the others?"
"...I just wanted to pamper you...."
Kronii sighs
"There's no point in doing this"
"Yes there is! You guys deserve to be loved!"
Fauna got closer to Kronii, she looked away
"...I don't--"
Fauna stopped her before she started self-deprecating
"You DO, Kronii"
"You're so cute and sweet and kind and I can't help wanting to pamper you!"
Kronii was blushing now
"...Can't you let yourself be taken care of for a bit?"
Kronii looked at her, Fauna's pleading face inflicted a critical hit
"Pleaaaaaaase?"
"Ugh... Fine..."
Fauna gave her the biggest smile after hearing that
"Thank you, Kronii!"
She took her by the hand and led her to the couch
"No time stopping, okay?"
"What?! No!"
"I don't want you running away like you always do, Kronii"
".....Okay, okay... just... don't talk to anyone about this"
Fauna actually didn't expect her to accept that
"That's fine, this is staying between us"
Making the most of it, Fauna immediately goes for a big hug
"There we go..."
She noticed Kronii's heartbeat
It was getting faster and faster the longer the hug went
Fauna started giggling
"W-what?"
"Nothing, nothing, now come over here"
She let Kronii go and sat down on the couch
"Put your head right here"
Fauna was patting her lap
Kronii was beet red now, but she reluctantly did what Fauna asked
She started patting her head and humming a few songs
She noticed how Kronii was starting to get a bit drowsy
"You haven't slept that much recently, have you?"
"...Guess I haven't"
"Well since we're here already, you can close your eyes"
Fauna was now stroking her head carefully
"Maybe I will"
Getting treated by Fauna's kindness was still something new to her
Kronii felt like it was alright to let go for once
A little while later, Kronii fell asleep
Fauna was overjoyed now that Kronii finally accepted her pampering
With her objective done, she just focused on Kronii
She kept stroking her hair, enjoying how peaceful Kronii's face looked
A thought crossed her mind, it's something she probably won't get another chance to do
She decided to go for it
She leaned in and gave her a kiss on the forehead
"I love you, Kronii"
Suddenly, Kronii's face turned red
Fauna's face also turned red
"H-hey... Kronii...?"
".......Yeah?"
Too late for regrets now
"You can lean on me whenever you want"
"....Thank you"
Kronii didn't run away, but turned around to hide her blush
Fauna kept humming stroking her head
Now this really was something they'll never tell anyone
A moment only for them
