Frolicking Hotel Foxes (A Lore-Friendly Star Fox Story)

Frolicking Hotel Foxes

(A lore-friendly Star Fox Love Story)

Author’s notes: In time for August of 2024, once again, I am called to write this. After all, there is no true appreciation for Krystal or any of the other Star-Fox ladies. If there were, then there wouldn’t be any of the horrid fucked up shit involving them and, really, all other characters. Kram, give me a fucking break. It’s nothing but a fucked up, horrid excuse to reduce the pure Cerinian to nothing but sex, which is not her character at all. That also goes for my Fara, the beautiful Fennec who is mine and mine alone. And don’t get me started on Fay, Miyu, Katt, or even Fox, Falco, Wolf, and the rest. None of them wished or ever wanted to be mindless fucking machines, gender bended, and all the things I despise and hate that I see of them out there that’s lewd, crude, disgusting, horrid, and most of all fucked up. All done by those not fit to call themselves humans or even true fans of the series.

That’s why I do what I do, not only to stand out and not follow the crowd, doing the same shit so many others do, but to show the canon and otp stuff while also showing what it means to truly love someone, a series, and treat both it and its characters justice. And since Krystal, for example, loves and is with Fox, then that means showing why they work. Katt with Falco is another, but seeing as how Fara has my heart and love, then that’s who she’s with, leaving Miyu with Panther and Fay with Bill. If things were different regarding who had my affection, I would have worked it out. Somehow, I highly doubt things would be different no matter if things changed. So, the truth and real stories will keep coming out, even if characters like Wolf are with someone like Luna.

That’s why I say, to all those who’d rather follow those who are horrid and not artists and writers, then you’re on the wrong side. And to AT (Who anon goes by the name Guest), who keeps up with those worthless comments, you’re still wasting your time as I’m not listening to your bullshit ranting. As for the rest who only read but don’t get the message, or those who do and get it, I certainly hope you enjoy this story, one that takes place six months after Summer of Love. This one is a story I’ve had in my head for some time, and now I have the chance to write it. And I’m not going to stop with this; I’ll keep going for as long as I can. There are still many more tales to be told, and I intend to do what I can.

Throughout life, everyone had to deal with the unexpected. From little curveballs to the ones that completely threw lives out of whack for the worst, nobody could predict every possible outcome. For the minor inconveniences, one could only roll with the punches. But even then, sometimes things kept piling up and became too much to deal with. That was how it was for Fox McCloud as the tod was stuck in a hotel lobby on Corneria at the present time.

His right foot was tapping with impatience and irritability, his arms crossed, and he had a frown on his muzzle. Fox was displeased by the planet's situation, even if what had happened was beyond anyone’s control. Fox was usually the kind of guy who liked things to go well for him and his team. The tod could be flexible, but what had happened didn’t leave him in a good mood. Even if what happened was horrible.

It had all started as just an ordinary trip to the planet, just him and Krystal. The Great Fox needed supplies to keep her and the crew going in space, and it was the two foxes’ turn. Every member rotated between this task as purchasing and gathering needed items could become a real hassle. At least it wouldn’t be just the tod and pure Cerinian, as they met up with two more who had the same task for their team’s mothership. Nicholas McCoy and his girlfriend, Fara Phoenix, had also come to Corneria for supplies as well. It had all been arranged by a video call to go on the shopping spree, just the four of them. With two extra pairs of paws, it meant more help, being able to carry additional items, and having other beings to talk to. They agreed to meet after lunch on the planet’s surface.

This arrangement suited all for foxes just fine because all of them, and those on their teams and in the Lylat, knew nothing fucked up would happen. Firstly, Fox and Krystal had never met Fara until working with Star Flight. The Fennec hadn’t dated the tod, only heard of what he and his team had done during the Lylat Wars. Besides, the one Fara had fallen deeply in love with was Nicholas, the long-haired yellow fox. These feelings were returned in full by the leader of Star Flight, both foxes finding who they wanted to be with forever. Another reason why fucked up shit wouldn’t happen was due to Fox and Krystal not only dating but having found the one for them. Ever since their confession at that resort, the tod and pure Cerinian found themselves head over paws in love, finding sheer bliss and joy with each other. Neither couple would suddenly cheat, or worse, swap or share, as that was fucked up and disgusting. If anyone so much as mentioned such a thing, all four foxes would have given the death glare, snarling that shit never happening. Especially as neither tod, but especially the ladies, weren’t and never would be bi, gay, or pan. Everybody was straight and always would be.

The two couples met as arranged, lists at the ready. Although there had been a significant number of things and stopping at a number of shops, the group managed to get everything. But right after the last item was purchased, things went south. Whether due to recklessness, drunk driving, being sleep-deprived, or something else, nobody was sure. But a deadly wreck had fucked everything up. It wasn’t just the sheer size of it, but one of the crashed vehicles had rammed into something that ended up exploding. A few more explosions then went off in a chain reaction, causing significant damage to a part of Corneria city. This shocked the entire planet, the teams who watched the news from the mother ships, and the shopping foxes. The incident would go down as one of Corneria’s worst disasters, not since the war against Andross or the Aparoids.

Fox, Krystal, Nicholas, and Fara were out of harm’s way when it happened, reassuring those who called on their phones that they were alright. However, the blue-furred fox quickly closed her telepathy abilities off, as being able to pick up on thoughts and emotions would have been a terrible idea for Krystal. Nicholas did the same thing due to being a part of Cerinian with the same mind-reading abilities as the Cerinian vixen. Even so, the group saw the other civilians in a state of panic, fear, dismay, and grieving. It was horrible to watch. But with it came a price, and many places on the planet were shut down, and the whole planet was locked down. No ships could enter or leave for 24 hours while this mess got straightened out. Those who had a home were instructed to stay there for this lockdown period, and all guests to find a place to stay. As fortune would have it, all the hotels and motels on the planet hadn’t been destroyed, but the supplies needed to be dealt with first. While Fox took care of finding a place for the items, Nicholas and Fara were tasked with locating a hotel for the group. The latter, acting quickly enough, had managed to reserve a room before they all promptly filled up.

Since the room wouldn’t be ready for another two hours due to the emergency, the supplies were dealt with next. It hadn’t been easy and a pain in the ass, as getting to the place required navigating through major traffic and moving the items into the right place, which had taken a couple of hours. By the time the foxes got to the hotel, Fox’s fuse had gotten way shorter, his impatience about to burst forth. Sensing this through gut feeling, Nicholas told the tod that he and Fara would handle the check-in part for their hotel room. Fox had just grunted his approval, figuring it was for the best to let more cool-headed ones handle this. Although they didn’t let it show, even Nicholas and Fara felt the tension themselves.

In the present, Fox was still tapping his foot, clearly not a happy tod. He understood the terrible feelings that came with what had happened but was a bit upset that such a thing had turned this shopping trip into a nightmare. It had even wrecked the evening plans the vulpine had in mind for his girlfriend Krystal. His thoughts turned to her and all the happy moments the pair had shared since becoming a couple. Ever since confessing their feelings of love during that trip six months ago, the tod and pure Cerinian had been riding what felt like a cloud that soared to the heavens. Such a state of being overjoyed happened after waiting so long, with only their fantasies, wishes, and longing occupying their hearts and minds. Now that Fox and Krystal were dating, the foxes felt they had so much to make up for with the time lost.

For Fox, every day and night spent with the blue-furred beauty was like living in a dream and paradise at once. The vixen felt the same way about having him as hers, as Fox was the only thing that could bring light into her life. Nothing seemed to matter when the Cerinian lost everything, from her family, planet, and people. Krystal was left to wander the galaxy, trying to find someone or something. That is until the fated day Fox rescued her on Sauria. The Cerinian discovered her purpose in life through the vulpine, falling for him at first sight.

Since hooking up, the couple had opened up, sharing everything they loved about each other while having loving moments. It didn’t take long for the foxes to be comfortable with PDA, but they were amazed at how naturally things came when dealing with the chemistry, love, and romance they shared. From snuggling on the couch and holding paws to swapping taste and saliva while making out, things only escalated to being fantastic. While Fox and Krystal didn’t agree on everything, as they had their flaws, their relationship was healthy and strong, something so powerful that it couldn’t be broken by anyone or anything. The two could always work out any disagreements that would arise, always trusting the one they loved no matter what. Even if so many were against being together, Fox and Krystal would fight against the hate, supported by real friends, fans, and team members.

Their love kept blooming into a field of blooming flowers, evident by seeing Fox and Krystal glow with delight. It fueled the foxes’ work to get stronger and protect each other, and it also kept building up to something that was a priceless treasure and brilliant light. It was precisely what the other couples on the teams had, even if a few were farther along due to having started sooner. Only recently had Fox and Krystal gone the next step in their relationship. The desire and longing to go further had always been there, but after hooking up, the need had charged and built up until it became too much to ignore. The vulpine had been uncertain, even with his Cerinian girlfriend dropping hints she was ready for sex. Fox could vividly remember her bending over on purpose to entice him with her delectable rump, to letting him check her out in clothing that showed her delicious curves off. The tod then broke, unable to hold it in, and one night, while in a passionate embrace with Krystal, had reached with his paws to grope that hot piece of ass that was his only.

Feeling what her boyfriend did, the pure Cerinian turned her seductiveness up to an eleven, both foxes becoming horny as fuck. Fox carried her to his bed, with nothing held back as their clothes were torn off. Krystal was protected and on the pill, safe from anything the tod gave her, as the couple passionately made love long into the night. It was something both had dreamed of for far too long, not only consummating their relationship but also becoming ever-lasting mates. It had been one magical and magnificent night, seeing his Krystal fully nude as she saw her Fox in nothing but his bare fur. What only sweetened the time shared was the vixen giving the vulpine her virginity, something the pure Cerinian had dreamed of doing since realizing she loved him. There were no regrets with such a decision.

Fox and Krystal quickly got used to the other while fucking, often going at it like animals in a rut every single night. All that lust and need for their mate held back for so long caused the sex to be like an engulfing inferno of passion, true love, and romance. The two couldn’t get enough from the other fox and doubted they ever would. The lovemaking was kept only in their room, bed, and shower, as after that first night of sex, Krystal moved into Fox’s room. The vulpine had been planning on engaging in sex with his Cerinian after the shopping trip. But after what happened, the tod disliked that his plans had gotten ruined. Even if in his heart Fox knew there was more to romance than sex, he still didn’t like the situation. If anything, he at least was grateful she was going through this with him.

In the present, Fox felt her mind's familiar and beautiful touch. Krystal often did this to share another personal connection with the guy she loved. Like her voice, sensing her in his head was a soothing presence that could calm him down. The tod’s eyes opened, seeing the pure Cerinian’s blue-green eyes looking at him with concern. “Fox, are you upset over what happened?” the vixen asked mentally. “You seem quite agitated love.”

The tod exhaled, facing the love of his life, speaking out loud. “Sorry Krys, I’m not well actually.”

Krystal took his right paw into hers, squeezing it affectionately. “Then what’s troubling you?”

Fox’s cheeks tinged with red while looking to see if anyone would overhear them. Although the vixen could have read his mind, the Cerinian would never do that. She respected her mate’s privacy, only communicating with him mentally to reassure him or when they couldn’t speak. “Forgive me babe, this might sound selfish on my end. But the truth is, I was planning for just the two of us to spend time in our room after this. You know…” He did a quick glance down her front and back up to Krystal’s eyes.

The Cerinian’s cheeks got spots of red as she got what the vulpine implied, giggling like a schoolgirl. “You are such a naughty and bold vulpine, aren’t you Mr. McCloud?” Krystal said, getting a playful, smug smirk on her muzzle. Her slender arms wrapped around Fox’s strong right arm. “Even with what’s happened, you still can have such dirty thoughts?”

He knew that the Cerinian was only teasing as the blue-furred vixen had told him with her mind and voice time after time that since it was Fox thinking such things about her, she didn’t mind. It was due to true love, and if anyone else said such words, there would be two very pissed-off foxes. After all, only the vulpine would fuck her like she would fuck him. Fox only fantasized about him doing her good, never once thinking of sharing and swapping with another and her in the same go.

The tod got a smirk of his own. “Can you blame me sexy? I know for a fact Krystal, you’ve also had such thoughts yourself about just me with you. Plus, can you blame me for how beautiful you are now with what you’re wearing?”

The Cerinian glowed with happiness as her plans for what to wear had worked to please her mate. Krystal had gone in black jeans with matching shoes. A red t-shirt covered the vixen’s upper body, modest in design that covered up her bust. However, it seemed no matter what the blue-furred beauty wore, Fox swore she could look good in anything as her sexy divine curves also seemed to be shown off for him. But the tod never forgot to remember the true beauty Krystal had wasn’t her looks, but her mind and personality. Fox loved the vixen for everything she was, both physically and what made her who she was. That touched the Cerinian’s heart, for she loved her mate back just as intensely for all the same and right reasons as well.

She knew that Fox had sworn to treat her like a goddess queen, someone who should never be viewed for only just their body and means for sex. The vulpine has always respected and valued her opinions, thoughts, and feelings, which was part of why it had taken so long before the two engaged in sex. That’s what made it even better with waiting so long and also due to true love. Unlike the sick fucks and freaks out there who weren’t true fans and didn’t care about Krystal’s wellbeing, Fox did and would fight and kill if that’s what it took to protect the Cerinian. She was like that as well, albeit a little less extreme.

“Well, you certainly look handsome in my eyes,” Krystal cooed, eying what Fox wore. The tod was in regular jeans, his shirt being the same green like the usual outfit he wore. Despite the more civilian-like look, the t-shirt still clung to Fox’s body, not hiding the muscled chest he had acquired from years of being a mercenary. Something the vixen was all too familiar with now as not only was Fox a perfect pillow to sleep on, but Krystal had seen all of it in full glory while in their bed.

The couple chuckled, booping noses. Fox felt the negative waves plaguing his body evaporating. “Thanks for that, Krystal; I feel much better now,” he said.

The vixen kissed his right cheek. “You’re quite welcome, and I’ll do it again and again. Just like you can always comfort me, I’ll always be there for you.” The tod wrapped her right arm around Krystal’s slender waist. The Cerinian leaned into him. “We’ll get through this honey, and make the best out of this awful situation. Besides.” Their eyes met. “Better that we’re stuck together, and Nicholas and Fara are here too. It could be much worse going at this alone or being stuck with someone you or I hate.”

Fox and Krystal glowered as they both knew just what these things were. Since both foxes were straight, it never made any sense to put them with someone of the same gender. The vulpine never would do anything with Falco or Wolf, as those guys were also straight and had their own lady each. The lupine had never been gay, so it was an enigma why others would ever think up that horrid shit. Even if the leader of Star Wolf did call Fox pup, that was to be insulting, if anything. Plus, he had Luna McCay as his girl and mate.

The tod also despised fucked up gender-bending and the wrong genitals, never once wanting to be a female or wear a fucked up Zero suit from a bounty hunter that never would belong in the Lylat. Growing to giant size was also fucked up and never would happen. Just like how Fox would never fuck any of the other ladies, so no Miyu, Katt, Fay, Fara, and especially not any female that didn’t belong in the galaxy. Just like how a yellow-furred digital being with purple gloves or a vixen who raced with a mole under her left eye would never cross paths with any of the teams. The former was not a slut or someone interested in anything sex-wise, while the latter was straight herself and had a husky mate and boyfriend.

Krystal had it just as bad, if not worse. Too many only saw the vixen as something for sex and never carried about her as a being. She also despised and hated gender bending and wrong genitals. Being straight, the Cerinian never wanted to be anything but female. Krystal also would never be bi, pan, or lesbian, just like the other ladies on the team. There was no disgusting sex with them as each of them had their own guy. There would never be swapping, sharing, or cheating, just like how Krystal would never be fucked by horrid tentacles, have ugly and disgusting lactating tits, or be gangbanged. Fox hated all those things as much as she did, especially when the Cerinian was placed with the wrong being. Falco, Wolf, and Panther would never fuck the blue-furred beauty, just like how a racing tiger and a thieving raccoon who didn’t belong in the Lylat wouldn’t as well. Slippy, for some fucked up reason, was included, but the frog had Amanda and wasn’t a sex god with a massive dong that could cum for hours.

What was even worse was putting Krystal with the wrong lady, as all of them were either asexual or straight with their own guy. Panther had Miyu, Wolf had Luna, Falco had Katt, Fara had Nicholas, and Slippy had Amanda. Even Lucy Hare had her own guy, so that rabbit was not an option. This extended to other ladies who never would run into the teams. If that happened, they were most likely fakes and be shot on sight. Like the same yellow-furred digital being who never would be a lesbian or an animatronic wolf from a pizzeria that was a horrid cunt bitch. More ladies who Krystal would never interact with were a white-furred space cat with different mental abilities who would never fuck Slippy, a vixen maiden who lived in medieval times, a blue-haired vixen who was a cop, and especially not a white-furred hellhound that was taken and a straight female. The first example had her own crush on a different male, the second had her one true fox vulpine love, the cop vixen had the same raccoon thief as hers, and the hellhound female was in a pleasant romantic relationship with a green-furred male hellhound.

Just as nasty were tentacles that Krystal destroyed whenever a chance came up. Nothing like that would fuck her holes. Just like how horrid aliens wouldn’t touch her, and definitely not dinos or scalies. Sharpclaws were included, as those dinos never had sexual impulses ever. Krystal and Fox, really all of the teams, were horrified and disgusted by such things. But none more so than the so-called fans who were only sick fucks and freaks. Like a blue-haired vulpine that would never fuck the Cerinian or be her biggest fan. Worse of all was a so-called legend that had Krystal’s name. There was no such legend, just another disgusting horrid thing that showed almost nobody carried about her but only wanted to see her fucked, which was wrong. To that, the teams said fuck the fake legend, like there was no legend involving her or the white-furred space cat. Just like how the blue-furred vixen would never appear in a life game that made no sense at all. Especially not with a smoking goat cunt and a white-furred wolfess who was a supposed witch when none of that shit existed in the Lylat.

At the end of the day, what mattered was Fox and Krystal only needed the other, for nothing else would claim their hearts, minds, bodies, or souls. They had been born to find each other and stay in a loving relationship for eternity. In the present, the tod smiled at the vixen, placing a kiss of his on her cheek. She murmured with happiness, wrapping him up in a hug. “Let’s put those things aside for later; we’ve got enough trouble at the moment,” Krystal said, laying her head against Fox.

His paws held his Cerinian close, stroking her back. “Yeah, it’s better to deal with one pain at a time.” Their eyes locked. “As long as I have you, I can get through anything.”

“And likewise, no matter what, I’ll always love you Fox, and stay by your side. You’re the only one for me to last for eternity.”

“And I can’t be without you in my life. I love you more than life itself, the only one I want to be with forever.” The foxes smooched before turning their heads to see how Nicholas and Fara were doing, as that pair had been at the front desk for quite a bit.

“Oh? I think they’re finished,” the pure Cerinian stated. The couple decided paw-holding would be better when engaging with the other foxes. Fox saw that Nicholas and Fara had mixed emotions dancing on their muzzles while holding paws. The tod wasn’t sure if they had been successful in getting a room. He hoped at least the four wouldn’t be spending the night outside.

The other pair approached, and Nicholas took a breath. “So then, what do you want?” he asked. “You want the good news, the bad, or the worse? Pick your poison.”

Fox studied the other tod’s face for a moment, trying to figure out which would be the best choice. What the vulpine saw was another male whose orange fur was lighter in the shade than the former’s. His long yellow hair was tied up in a ponytail that went well with the square framed glassed riding on Nicholas’s face, with his green eyes being lighter in color. A scar on the right side of the chin gave the part Cerinian some features that added to his looks, something obtained from an old fight. Like Fox, Nicholas’s arms and chest were well-defined and muscular from years spent living the life they did. Around his neck was a necklace with a dangling cross, etched with line work like Krystal's staff. For today, the part Cerinian tod went with a black-colored T-shirt and matching jeans.

“I guess the worst news,” Fox said.

“So we’re basically stuck here until eleven in the morning,” Nicholas stated. “Traffic on and off Cornerian will resume then. Good news is, me and Fara were luckily able to get a room. Bad news is, all four of us have to share it.”

Krystal and her mate exchanged worried looks. “Like one bed?” she asked.

“No, thankfully it has two beds, each one able to hold two.”

Fox and the Cerinian let out sighs of relief. “Thank god,” he stated.

“I’d certainly say so,” Nicholas added. “Let’s just count ourselves lucky that Fara and I could get a room that worked. I’m just glad we called this place when we did before it quickly filled up.”

“And best it’s you two stuck with us,” Krystal said.

“It sounds like it’s for the best. Honestly, I think it could be much worse for all four of us.”

“Well, I’m just thrilled my guy here kept a cool head while talking at the front desk,” Fara said, giving her boyfriend and mate a glowing look of pride. Her left paw in his right gave that part of him a loving squeeze. “At least we can spend tonight inside with the one we love rather than in the freezing dark of night. I imagine with things shaken up it’ll be hairy. I would rather be safe with Nicholas by my side, even if it means sharing a room with others.”

The fennec beauty’s green eyes danced with joy, her thick, bushy tail swishing as Fara could get like that around the part Cerinian she loved more than life itself. Anyone who wasn’t a fucktard or asshole would think it was cute, as the vixen was also quite a beauty herself. Despite not having natural hair like Krystal or Nicholas, and being the shortest of the foxes at 5’5, none of that made her any less in the part Cerinian’s eyes. Fara’s chest and ass were just as rounded and developed as Krystal’s, her curves sexy and hot. Her light-brown fur was gorgeous, something Nicholas loved to stroke, lick, and kiss.

The tod with yellow hair grinned, pecking her on the cheek. Fara giggled, her cheeks gaining two tiny patches of blush. “Well spoken gorgeous,” Nicholas said, a glowing look of love in his eyes. It was hard for him not to, as he loved her beautiful mind and personality. Of course, what Fara was wearing wasn’t lost on the long-haired vulpine. The Fennec wore jeans that fit her curvaceous legs like a glove. A purple-colored T-shirt was on her upper body, exposing some of Fara’s lovely midriff. This wasn’t a way to outdo Krystal, as the Fennec was highly confident in her looks, and Nicholas only had his eyes for her like Fox only did for the pure Cerinian.

A thought then struck Fara. “Oh yes, aren’t we forgetting to hand something over to them Nicholas?” she asked.

The part Cerinian tod blinked before getting what she meant. “Oh yes, sorry.” Fox and Krystal were given the needed card keys to enter the room. “Now then, something else needs to be dealt with. If all four of us are stuck here tonight, we’ll need some items like toothbrushes. There’s a store in the hotel that carries such things that me and Fara here will hit. Is there anything we can get you two?”

Fox and Krystal gave a list of requested things that were easy to obtain. The four foxes then split up, with the tod and pure Cerinian going to the room first. Located on the fourth floor, the pair were primarily quiet. The blue-furred beauty had a dilemma. Although she was grateful to at least have a room and bed to share with Fox, they would have company, which meant having sex with her mate was going to be nearly impossible. Krystal already missed and longed for Fox as the lovemaking with him was a special thing they shared. They had never missed a night, and not engaging in it felt foreign and off. “At worst, if me and him must wait, it’s only for one night,” the pure Cerinian decided in her head. “For now, I’m going to just wait and see what happens.”

Meanwhile, Nicholas and Fara had reached their destination, a convenience-like store inside the hotel. The two couldn’t help but notice not just the lack of other customers but also the fact that the few that were shopping moved somberly and hurriedly. “Hard to believe how crazy things have gotten. I never would’ve guessed we’d be stuck on this planet some hours ago.”

The brown-furred vixen squeezed the tod’s right paw, which she held with her left. “It’s horrible; I’m just thankful we weren’t near the wreck.” The beauty’s green eyes met his. “At least we have each other babe.”

Nicholas cracked a grin while grabbing a couple of shopping baskets. “You’re damn right on that gorgeous.” He took another look around. “At least if there’s one small good thing with this, it’s shaken everyone up, and I’m not catching any guy checking you out big time.”

The foxes glowered as that had been one issue during the shopping trip. Fox and Krystal had dealt with the same thing: jealous single guys glaring at the vulpines because each had such a gorgeous vixen as a girlfriend and mate. The four foxes also could sense the vixens were being looked at in a very unflattering way, causing Fara to get closer to Nicholas and Krystal to get closer to Fox. Both tods had glared right back, growls of protection and procession resonating from deep within their chests. Nicholas’s tail had wrapped around the brown-furred vixen while Fox’s had gone around Krystal, both males daring anyone stupid enough to try anything. Only someone deaf, blind, and dumb would have been foolish enough.

Even if such a thing was a pain to deal with, the vixens had been touched to hear that kind of growl. Krystal felt even more special as it showed how much Fox loved and cared for her as she did with him. For Fara, it was more than feeling special; it also brought relief, joy, and deep adoration that Nicholas cared for her that strongly. Although the brown-furred Fennec had confidence in her beauty and looks, there had always been doubt about the part Cerinian loving her back. Nicholas seemed so out of her league when first falling in love with the long-haired tod. But he proved to Fara that he did return her feelings just as much, the two foxes becoming blissful and content after becoming a couple. Even now, after how long they’d been dating, their love and chemistry were still strong.

Neither the Fennec nor part Cerinian once thought of breaking up at all. But that didn’t mean things had been easy when it came to dealing with the fucked up shit that infuriated the foxy couple. For one thing, Fara had never dated Fox, but like all the other ladies, she would never be bi, pan, or gay, only straight. Wolf had never dated the fennec beauty, and none of the other guys or ladies had fucked her. Just like how no scalies, tentacles, and every other horrid and fucked up disgusting thing that Fox and Krystal hated had gotten to Fara. Both she and Nicholas despised those things with burning anger. Just as much as the wrong male fucking her like a cunt of an orca or the same smoking faggot goat with the cunt she-wolf witch that never would be in the Lylat. Another would be that racing tiger and vixen with a mole under her left eye. Both of them had their own loved one, and if they, or any of the things mentioned, showed up, all would be killed right on the spot. Fake things were never welcomed or beings that had ill intent.

Nicholas and Fara then returned to the present, smiling at each other. “I think that’s enough about worrying about shit that we can deal with later,” the vulpine said. “Fox and Krystal are waiting for us with the needed items.”

“Yes,” Fara agreed, but she then frowned. It wasn’t lost on her boyfriend.

“What’s wrong babe?”

“Nothing, just…” Her green eyes glanced down Nicholas’s front for a second. “I’m happy we have a room, but the one small regret is that we’re sharing it with two others. I hoped that after shopping, we could’ve had a loving night in our bed…”

The long-haired vulpine kissed her head. “I’m with you there sexy. We haven’t done it in a bit so the urge is there. But we have to respect Fox and Krystal. After all, it’s not just to prove we’re not all sex addicts that will fuck anyone and anything. I don’t want to put those two in a situation they wouldn’t want to be in. She’s not a slut after all, just like you dear.”

Fara nodded, getting close to him. “I understand,” the Fennec replied. “I guess it’s best just to see how it goes tonight. And at worst, if we have to wait until tomorrow, then so be it.” Her muzzle got a seductive grin, “Promise me sexy that if we wait, you’ll take me to sequel town when we get back to our ship.”

“You got it hot stuff,” Nicholas said, kissing her again, the two foxes laughing.

“That’s why you’re the best thing in my life,” Fara said, looking to the tod with adoration. “You know how to make me feel so much better.”

“Same here. You’re really amazing Fara, and I love you.”

“I love you too; I love you so much.” The pair pecked each other on the lips, heading to find the needed items. They kept close, but the Fennec did grab some other items just in case, as the store had them. It was better to be safe just in case, even if there weren’t any plans for things to get steamy.

Upstairs on the fourth floor of the hotel, Fox and Krystal had arrived at the door the card keys would work on. The tod held his up to a round black pad and saw it light up green. Grabbing the handle, the vulpine held the door open for the pure Cerinian. “After you,” he offered.

“Such a gentleman,” she cooed, walking past the tod and flicking his side with her tail. Fox was right behind her.

The couple turned the lights on and spotted the two beds right away. As mentioned, they were both big enough for two beings each, spaced out so nobody could touch the other. That meant no fucked up foursome would happen. The colors for the sheets and many comfy pillows were white, nothing too fancy in terms of the designs. The floor was carpeted and dull red, matching the two longue chairs placed by the large window to the left of the beds. The tan-colored curtains were drawn in with the unit to control the heat and air-conditioning right below. In front of the beds was a large metal dresser with the standard big-screen TV all hotel rooms had. Neither Fox nor Krystal felt like turning it on and seeing the status of things, so the foxes peeked in the bathroom. Made of white titles and porcelain, the sink was large enough for two, reflected in the size of the shower. Standard like hotel ones, this one was entered through a door made of thick glass used for showers. The set of towels guests could use were hanging on racks, laid out in neat rows.

“Pretty standard,” Fox said.

“But perfect for our emergency situation,” Krystal added. “Sometimes simple is better than fancy.”

“Yeah.” The tod gave her a sympathetic grin, taking her paws into his. “I know it’s not like the resort we all went to six months ago, but as long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters.”

The blue-furred beauty’s muzzle burst into a loving smile, her eyes shining. “That means so much to me Fox, and why you’re the only one I need. Nobody else, least of all those sick fucks and freaks, cares about me like you do.”

“Fucking A on that. Plus, we didn’t deal with idiots gazing at you like they wanted to get with you.”

“Works for me even if the current situation is horrible.” The foxes then realized they were alone in this hotel room. Both sets of cheeks began to acquire blush as their eyes looked at the one they loved. The minds of the tod and vixen suddenly brought memories of them making love, both feeling a stirring need to do it right now.

Fox’s eyes then noticed a hotel menu hanging from the wall, reminding the tod that nobody had anything to eat since lunch. “Oh!” he stated, snapping Krystal out of the need for sex with him. “Uh, should we order something to eat? I’m sure Nicholas and Fara will be starving as well.”

The pure Cerinian realized the wisdom of her boyfriend, nodding in agreement. “Sounds like a plan Fox.” She sent the tod a wink. “Although, I think you were just now thinking some dirty thoughts of us doing it like I did.”

The poor vulpine burned red. “Well, it’s hard for me not to,” he mumbled, rubbing his head awkwardly.

“It’s perfectly normal sexy,” Krystal reassured him. “We are alone for now. At worst, if we have to wait until tomorrow, then so be it. Promise me if we return to the Great Fox, you tend to my needs in our bed, as I will do with yours.”

“Deal.” The foxes smooched, pleased, and turned their attention to the hotel menu, which had the food items offered for room service.

The pair sat on the lounge chairs, looking over the food choices. They had only been at this for ten minutes when Nicholas and Fara entered. The part Cerinian and Fennec had several bags with needed items for the night and some drinks and snacks. “Hey you two!” the vulpine with glasses said. “Looks like you’re already settled in.”

“Perfect timing; me and Fox were thinking of getting room service,” Krystal said.

“Excellent; I’m getting hungry.”

Fara and her boyfriend handed one bag to the pure Cerinian that contained her requested items and another that contained the things Fox told them to get. The group of four then reviewed the catering menu, deciding what to have for dinner. Krystal made the order by phone and was pleased that the food would arrive promptly. Everyone else was too after being informed by the pure Cerinian.

Nicholas and Fara checked the bathroom quickly while Fox and Krystal reviewed the night’s items in the bags. Everyone was pleased with how things were despite the plans derailing. The part Cerinian and Fennec then joined the other two, sitting on the bed closest to the lounge chairs.

“So, what now?” Fox asked.

“Well, how ‘bout we catch up?” Fara suggested. “We haven’t had a chance since the trip to the resort.”

“Didn’t we do that during the weddings recently?” Krystal said.

“Not quite,” Nicholas pointed out. “We did a little but were more focused on other important team members then.”

During the trip at Shining Star Resort, it wasn’t just Fox and Krystal who had experienced true joy and happiness by finally becoming a couple. Panther had proposed to Miyu, and Slippy had popped the question to Amanda. Both ladies accepted, with all the teams attending each wedding. The amphibians had gone first, two months after the vacation, giving the lynx and jungle cat time to prepare for their special day. The green-skinned frog had been a nervous wreck, but Slippy’s nerves evaporated once he saw the pink-skinned female walking down the aisle in her wedding dress. All the guests could see how overjoyed the newlyweds were during the event.

Panther and Miyu didn’t have their wedding until a month after the frogs returned from their honeymoon. Since first laying eyes on the lynx, the jungle cat had done all he could to win her heart. Once they became an item, Panther never so much as glanced at another lady, keeping all his attention on the member of Star Flight. Sure, he, along with Fox and Krystal, did remember how Panther had flirted with the Cerinian in the past. But the foxes saw the jungle cat had changed for the best by being loyal to Miyu. There were things with the lynx that the Star Wolf member came to love with all his heart. Just like he had qualities Miyu found attractive.

The love the two felines shared was felt on their wedding day. Despite Panther looking sharp and handsome, the lynx shone with her beauty despite being somewhat of a tomboy. The lynx was so beautiful and ladylike on the special day, wearing a strapless wedding dress, complete with flowers to match. Nobody even considered wrecking the wedding like with Slippy and Amanda. When it was over, the guests all waved the newlyweds goodbye, and Panther and Miyu blasted off for their honeymoon.

It was wonderful to see the two couples tie the knot and to see another new couple attend the weddings as well. Wolf had gone to both events and was clearly very happy to be in a relationship with Luna McCay. Those wolves had also confessed their feelings of love at the resort, showing how even someone like the lupine could find true love and romance. It made sense in one way, given how he was straight and not for some fucked up reason gay. He and Fox would never be together, and Wolf would never be with any of the other ladies but Luna.

What happened next still came as a surprise, even if it was suspected it could happen. Amanda and Slippy revealed she was pregnant with the green-skinned male’s child, and both adults were ready for such a responsibility. Then Panther and Miyu shared the news the lynx was carrying the jungle cat’s little one. One might wonder if the Star Wolf member would be a good parent, but he proved in many ways that he was ready for parenthood like Miyu and excited and happy to be a father. As for the ladies, they were overjoyed to become mothers themselves. Some might say both couples were crazy for wanting a kid, but neither carried. Each child had been conceived with true love, which was far better than a fucked up rape or getting pregnant by the wrong male. The most important thing was neither Slippy nor Panther planned on running from this, which was far worse than anything else. For now, it was a matter of waiting for the nine months to go by and for the moment of truth when Slippy and Amanda, along with Panther and Miyu, came face to face with the little bundle of joy each lady was carrying.

“I’m thrilled with how great things are going,” Nicholas said. “I always knew they were during those weddings.”

“They were wonderful,” Krystal added. Fox nodded in agreement.

“Honestly despite those being real ones I’ve attended for the first time in my life, I actually enjoyed myself,” the leader of Star Fox said. The tod smirked at the pure Cerinian. “Maybe ‘cause I had you with me during each event.”

The blue-furred fox blushed and let out a small laugh. “Well, you were quite the looker to me during those events babe. Not even Panther could have torn my gaze from you. And Slippy? He looked nice, but my heart belongs to you.”

“I’m really glad that jungle cat found someone to love like Miyu,” Nicholas said. “It was evident from the time they met they would become an item. Sure, we’ve all seen him flirt. But it’s evident Panther knows what lines not to cross, even to this day.”

“It got on my nerves when he tried flirting with Krystal,” Fox stated. “But me and her hadn’t hooked up yet during the Aparoids invading the Lylat. I know it was after that he met Miyu and focused all his love on her. I’m still a little surprised he’d settle down, much less end up becoming a father. He’s changed a lot.”

“I think we’ve all changed because of true love,” Fara said. “Think about it, are any of us or our teammates the same since finding that?”

The four foxes pondered this for a moment. The Fennec made a good point, as Fox’s and Krystal’s lives would be so different had they not met. Perhaps dying of old age alone or killed in combat. Nicholas and Fara might have ended up in the same place, or perhaps with someone else. But things had happened for a reason, a force more powerful than any fighter, weapon, or leader. Something that worked in mysterious ways that could make it so one found the being they were supposed to be in love with. And it was this that had enabled Fox and Krystal to be together, like Nicholas and Fara were an item. Just as it was for all the other couples the four foxes knew.

“Still, do you think Panther will make it with Miyu?” Fox asked.

“I know he will,” Nicholas replied. “I was there when they first met. I saw the sparks of them smitten with each other. It was real, and I can tell you this: he knows the guys who run away are cowards. What’s worse is running away from a lady who’s pregnant with your child. They may be first-time parents, but I saw Panther's look when he saw Miyu. He’s got fire, devotion, love, and protection to protect her and their kit inside that lynx. They’re going to make it with being a married couple and raising a family.”

“And if you think that’s surprising, how about Wolf with Luna?” Krystal added. “I mean, I’m grateful and happy he found someone as he’s not gonna be with anyone else.”

“I guess even someone as hardened as him could find someone to love,” Fara said. “I for one am glad he did. Do I look like I would ever date that lupine?”

“Uh, hell fucking no,” Nicholas growled in anger, as everyone knew what that was about. The part Cerinian’s voice then went back to normal. “Even so, Luna must have been able to see the parts of him in a way nobody else could. Sure, me and Krystal can read his thoughts and emotions, but that she-wolf had no such abilities. Sometimes your gut and heart are the way to go, which paid off for both of them. I suspect Wolf also saw some things in her he hadn’t seen before in a lady that struck a chord with him.”

“Well, they did appear to be very happy as a couple at the weddings,” Fox said. “He seemed to be giving that usual hard version of his smile. But the way I caught his gaze on her, I saw a burning fire of deep love, protection, devotion, and loyalty. I’ve never seen Wolf have that before.”

“They’re both wolves; it’s part of the reason,” Nicholas explained. “There are those among part Cerinians that have that kind of love for their mate. Just like how you and Krystal look at each other, it is the same deep, devoted emotions that Fara and I have.”

“They might seem unlikely, but clearly, they belong together,” Fara concluded. “As long as they’re that, that’s all that matters.”

“Well I think we can all be happy with how things have come out for all of us,” Krystal said. “Even if there are those that hate who’s with who, and others will try to show or say otherwise with fake fucked up things, everyone’s with who they’re meant to be with.”

“Speaking of that, I wonder whose wedding we’ll go to next? ” the Fennec asked, generally curious.

“My money’s on Bill and Fay being one couple,” Nicholas said, smirking. “What about you Fox? Who do you guess?”

“I think Falco and Katt might,” the leader of Star Fox answered, grinning. “He might seem unlikely, but given his bond with that feline, it wouldn’t surprise me. Like Wolf and Luna, Falco being truly in love didn’t seem likely, but it shows that even he can find someone.”

What nobody said, even if they were all thinking of it for a couple of seconds, was how it was also better since every couple was made of straight beings. Nobody would be bi, pan, gay, or even thinking of swapping, sharing, or cheating. That was just fucked up and disgusting, allowing none of the hated stuff to interfere with the romantic relationships. The foxes’ thoughts were interrupted as a knock on the hotel room door was heard. “Ah, that must be our food,” Nicholas said, getting up to answer, tipping the runner who had brought it. The payment for it had already been dealt with when Krystal had phoned in the order.

The part Cerinian returned to the others with the takeout bags, distributing the orders among the group. Everyone was pleased that the food was hot, as indicated by the heat felt with each bag. The mouth-watering and delicious scents soon filled the room as Fox, Krystal, Nicholas, and Fara extracted the goodies. They also got the drinks out, and the first tod suggested a little toast to boost morale and spirits. The other three agreed to this.

“To better days,” Fox stated.

“And to a brighter future for all of us,” Nicholas concluded. The group drank and began to eat.

The food was delicious, the heat filling their bodies with warmth. It brought a sense of peace after the crazy events of the day. Here, the group of four began to talk a little more about themselves. Although Nicholas and Fara knew how Fox and Krystal had met, those two were curious how things were going in general ever since the tod and pure Cerinian had hooked up. Nothing when it came to sex was divulged, as what the leader of Star Fox and his girl did in their bed was their own damn business. But the pair were happy to share the happy moments with the two Star Flight members, like dates they had managed to go on.

“I remember when Nicholas took me to that place,” Fara said after Fox and Krystal finished speaking of their latest date. The Fennec vixen got a dreamy look when recalling her sweet memory. “It was just one magical night for me.”

“You were quite lovely and beautiful yourself,” the part Cerinian added, nudging his mate playfully with a smirk. “I still remember that dress you wore. You shinned brighter than any gem or lady there sexy.”

Fara blushed with happiness, nuzzling her mate affectionately with her head. “Sounds romantic,” Krystal commented. “I can see even more why you two are a cute couple. Even if there are those who’d loved nothing more than to tear you apart like me and Fox.”

“We’re stronger than anything they can come up with,” Nicholas stated. “And we have friends and allies who support us being together. Seeing others step up and help more and more does remind me that not everyone’s against the love going on. It’s a matter of finding the right beings.”

Fox nodded. “Then consider two more supporters.” Here, he grabbed one of Krystal’s paws, squeezing it. Her eyes met his, already knowing what was on the vulpine’s eyes without reading his mind. “You and Fara have always been great to me and Krystal here.”

“I think it’s only fair,” the pure Cerinian added.

The long-haired vulpine and his vixen nodded. “We’d like that,” the brown-furred beauty said. “It’s been so tough at times, and just having true friends support me and my love for this fox here is a blessing.”

“You’re right on that,” Nicholas added and then grinned. “It makes what happened before us hooking up seem like child’s play.”

“What do you mean?” Fox asked, confused. “You two are so close; it was easy to confess, right?”

At this, the part Cerinian and Fennec laughed, like remembering an old joke. “No, actually it wasn’t,” she explained. “But thinking back on it sounds silly.”

The pair then summarized how they met and fell in love to the other foxes. Nicholas had arrived in the Lylat with three others, Ben, Cody, and Kira, from a different system. The other members of Star Flight had all been gathered, with Fara being the one the part Cerinian became smitten over when first meeting. However, Nicholas had sworn, when he realized he loved Fara, to never use his mind-reading abilities to peer into her head to see if those feelings were returned in full. The long-haired tod had more respect for the brown-furred vixen for one thing, unlike the sick fucks and freaks who only saw her as a disgusting sex thing. But Nicholas also wanted to reap the reward of having her as his girlfriend by doing it like any other guy would. Through his actions and observation, the leader of Star Flight got closer to her, eventually confessing.

For Fara, the vixen had worked hard on her skills as a pilot and was a perfect fit for Star Flight. But when it came to Nicholas, the Fennec felt he was too good for her and out of her league. Nicholas was so good-looking to Fara, someone who wouldn’t even give her a second look. The Fennec felt so plain. But the vulpine not only told her otherwise but also showed through his actions. To Nicholas, Fara was the most beautiful female he’d ever seen, one who was amazing and someone who could make him happy forever. The Fennec glowed with happiness when they did hookup, finally seeing what Nicholas meant.

From then on, the two foxes strove to show why they were meant to be together and grow stronger as a couple. They had even met the other’s parents, and both dads and moms were happy to meet the one dating their child. What Nicholas and Fara didn’t share in this story was they had also gotten into bed, losing their virginity to each other. That suited Nicholas and Fara just fine, as nobody or anything else would fuck or touch her. By the time the part Cerinian and Fennec had finished talking about themselves, the foxes had finished consuming the food, leaving a bunch of trash to deal with. “Is it alright if we clear this?” Krystal then asked, noticing the mess. “I’d rather not see it first thing in the morning.”

“Yeah, sure, if that makes you happy,” Nicholas said.

“Here Fox, why don’t you help me?” the blue-furred beauty suggested to her mate. He got her drift, helping the pure Cerinian gather the discarded bags and empty bottles.

A place to throw away the trash was found after quite a bit of a walk down the hallway. The foxy couple didn’t mind, as after hearing Nicholas and Fara summarize how they got together and seeing the Fennec and long-haired tod being quite lovey-dovey, the two members of Star Fox felt the need to talk. “Can I ask you something Fox?” Krystal asked her beloved.

“Sure,” he replied. “You go first babe.”

“Well…” The pure Cerinian paused for a second, thinking of how to ask. “I guess Fox, how much have you thought about us in the future?”

The tod blinked, taken aback. Not only had he meant to ask her the same thing, but it changed everything. “Er, can I ask where did that come from all of a sudden?”

“I think after the weddings we went to and seeing Nicholas and Fara be that happy as a couple has given me pause for thought.” Her lovely eyes looked into Fox’s green, showing how serious Krystal was. “I know we’ve only been together for six months officially Fox. But I’ve loved you for much longer. You know I have ever since we met on Sauria when you rescued me, I’ve loved you and only you. You’re all I want and need in my life. But there’s other things to consider. You know, like…”

The vixen didn’t finish, getting a smirk. “Like what?” Fox asked, not quite sure what his mate meant.

“Like what Tricky said about our honeymoon.”

The poor vulpine went bright red, remembering that embarrassing comment from that dino. Krystal laughed with loving amusement as it was so cute to see Fox get that flustered, just like before they hooked up. “You’re never gonna let me live that moment down, are you?” the tod grumbled.

“No, but I love it when you fumble like such a dork,” the pure Cerinian teased, getting a loving, amused look on her muzzle.

The foxes had finally reached the area they needed to go, disposing of their trash. He didn’t say anything, just thinking. Finally, the tod spoke. “I don’t know fully what our future holds Krys. But I know I’ve loved you ever since I laid eyes on you.” Their paws came together. “My feelings will never change as nobody else in the Lylat or anywhere else will have my heart but you. I know I want to be with you forever.” His arms brought the beauty in for a hug. “I don’t care what’s coming or how difficult it’ll be. But I will fight for us no matter how long that may last.”

Krystal blinked back tears of happiness, returning the hug. “And I will do the same,” she whispered. “No other will have my heart, body, mind, or soul but you Fox. You once told me you couldn’t be without me. And I can’t be without you too.” The two pulled back to boop noises. It caused them to grin like idiots. “I want you forever to Fox. Although seeing some of the others getting married and now having kids, can I ask your thoughts on those things? I won’t get mad with anything that you say.”

“I don’t know right now about them,” Fox answered. “Getting with you has been in my heart for so long that I haven’t thought much about it. I honestly don’t know how I’ll be as a father. But I always live by what mine said and did.”

“I know that all too well love,” the pure Cerinian said. “Just like I’ve told you about my parents and people. I know if they were still alive, they would think you are a worthy mate for me.”

“And my folks would love you to death. Well, not as much as me.” Fox smirked. “Even so, I know one thing I’ll do if it should happen. Krystal, if somehow, by accident or choice, you somehow got pregnant with my child, I would never leave you to fend for yourself. I would stay and help you raise him or her. Running off like that is not only one of the worst things a guy can do to a girl, but I know my dad wouldn’t have with my mother.”

Krystal gasped with happiness, throwing her arms around her boyfriend and mate. The vixen smothered him with kisses and licks, her tail swishing so fast that it looked like it would pop off. “Ohh, oh Fox, thank you for that!” the pure Cerinian cried joyfully. “Hearing you say that reassures me that I was right with falling in love with you!”

The foxes met in a kiss, one that solidified their bond even more. “You’re perfect for me,” he stated. “Just like I am for you.”

“You’re damn right on that.” Although Fox and Krystal sometimes disagreed, they could always work things out. What they had was healthy. “And when it does come time for us to say ‘I do’ to us having kids, we’ll know when the time is right. Don’t worry; I won’t go off the pill until then. At least I know I have the best mate I could ever want and need in my life. I love you.”

“I love you too; I love you more than anything.” They kissed again, happy and content. The pair made their way back to the hotel room while holding paws. Fox and Krystal were grinning from ear to ear, figuring they would settle down for the night with snuggling.
