The Two Companions 
By Rondori (godan5@comcast.net)

***

Using the characters and setting of the TV series 
"Firefly" and the movie "Serenity" Post BDM: in which 
Inara teaches a couple of novices the tricks of the 
trade. This is the story of a very high-class courtesan 
set in a far off solar-system called the 'verse' which 
was settled by Terra-forming colonists who arrived in 
vast colony ships two centuries before when earth's 
ecosystem failed. (FFM, bi, intr, swingers, voy, sci-
fi, parody)

***

Prologue: When the original colony ships had arrived, 
the society was largely egalitarian due to the long 
shipboard confinement and huge sacrifices and death 
rates involved in terraforming and settling the raw 
worlds they found. Sacred prostitution by both males 
and females was seen as a public service and was 
actually done on a rotating basis among the whole 
population on some ships and in the early colonies.

As the core worlds gained in prosperity, the companions 
began to be elevated in status. As the clientele gained 
wealth and status, the guild chose to bar from their 
membership all but the most highly trained companions 
and excluding the more common prostitutes that serviced 
the working classes. The companions also began to 
incorporate elements of geisha and Greek companion 
standards and practices.

The settlement of the rim worlds also saw the rise of 
neo-Puritanism and the consequential rise in 
discrimination against the common prostitutes in their 
midst. The companions of the core worlds continued to 
rise in status while they in turn elevated the cult of 
Isis to ritualized ceremony with few actual believers.

The rim world colonists who largely came from the poor 
classes of the core worlds looked back with nostalgia 
on the culture and glamour of the core worlds and 
especially the companions.

With prestige, the guild gained power and became a 
significant player among the power elite. People who 
know how to manipulate lust, desire and considerable 
funds have to operate in the real world if for no other 
reason than self protection.

And for self-protection, the guild had always 
maintained an elite group of covert agents drawn from 
within their own ranks who discreetly provided 
protection to the companions. Of course, all companions 
were trained in a variety of self-defense arts 
including weapons. It was a point of honor that no-one 
ever robbed or forced a companion against their will 
without suffering severe repercussions including death. 

Unlike the corporations, with their top-down 
hierarchical organization, the companion guild was 
always run by an association of elected officials with 
leadership coming from the most skilled practitioners 
and teachers of the sexual arts: that is: the 
priestesses. Like traditional prostitutes, most 
companions were female and the males as they got older 
tended to gravitate towards administration or 
enforcement.


Setting: Inara's shuttle:

As Inara sat in the pilot's seat, going through 
preflight check, flames lanced past her cockpit window. 
Like the true professional she was, she was extremely 
thorough. "I see Kaylee tightened up those coupling 
sleeves. I don't detect even the slightest leak." Their 
friendship and the adoration of a young mechanic meant 
that her shuttle always received loving attention. 

Inara paused to look outside at the flames blasting 
past the window and admired their beauty and thought 
once again "This is what the first astronauts must have 
seen". And with each buffet of flame she thought "There 
but for the buffer dampening shield, I would just be a 
puff of ash".

River's voice came over the intercom. "OK, Inara our 
speed is dropping down to MACH two and you're good to 
go". 

"Thanks Mei-mei, undocking, three-two-one undocked." As 
the shuttle cleared, Inara pulled up on the yoke, 
kicked the rudder and pulled a complete Immilman turn 
and headed towards her appointment. She then pulled a 
barrel roll out of sheer exuberance.

One thing that Inara had never confessed to Wash, Mal, 
or even River (though she was sure River knew) was that 
she loved to fly. Just then River's voice chirped 
"Yahoo, cowgirl – have fun."

"Thanks, I'll do my best. See you at the rendezvous. 
Out." As she hung inverted in the sky over Boros, Inara 
thought "Worlds like marbles in the sky and stars like 
dust beneath her feet" Such was the glamorous life she 
imaged when she set out to become a companion.

Of course, life these days was different. Ever since 
Miranda, she had become known as 'that Companion' who 
had helped to embarrass the Alliance and the major 
corporations who were running the government. Since 
most of her wealthy clients were corporate or 
government connected, and the point of having a 
companion was to show off their conspicuous 
consumption, Inara was suddenly without clients. Being 
publicly connected to a known terrorist (who obviously 
hated freedom as the corporate media put it) was not 
something they could afford. The plebs lionized Inara 
and her charms were publicly sung about and often 
embarrassingly exaggerated. But plebs could not pay her 
fees, nor could she cut her rates without violating 
guild law.

Inara had decided to utilize a little known pro bono 
clause because it was considered temple duty and 
released her from guild dues and fees. Inara would use 
her considerable skills and talents as a relationship 
counselor. This was also to mollify Mal's puritan 
prejudices. She conveniently neglected to mention that 
her services would include sex therapy.

Inara had always enjoyed the relationship and couple 
client classes at the training house and as a companion 
she had often been hired by celebratory couples for 
special occasions. She remembered with pleasure a 
unique night with two male dancers whose stamina was 
prodigious and only rivaled by their sweet nature and 
fashion sense. 

Speaking of which, she could use a relationship 
counselor herself for her relationship with Mal. They 
were strongly attracted to each other but they couldn't 
seem to get past her profession and his Puritanism. But 
that would have to wait; right now she had to earn a 
living. 

As she dropped in towards the town of White Pine, 
Boros, she couldn't help but notice how raw the world 
looked. Terraforming had stabilized Atmo and gravity 
and accelerated soil formation. But the soil was only 
inches thick and would not support real vegetation. The 
local community was operating under a boom economy due 
to rich and rare mineral deposits. Consequently local 
government employees were relatively impoverished. 

A couple she interviewed over the cortex both worked at 
the local terraforming quality control testing lab. On 
any settled planet they would have been comfortable 
middle class, but on this planet, planetary inflation 
had pushed them into poverty. Consequently they now 
qualified for pro bono services when they applied for 
relationship counseling.

During separate interviews Inara had established that 
the relationship was going on seven years with one 
child. They remained loving and committed to each other 
but somewhere the sex part went south. He complained 
that she was repressed and inhibited and the pressures 
of work left him with little time for romance. She 
complained that he often seemed disinterested and that 
when they did make love he was often finished too soon 
and she was left unsatisfied. 

Both of them seemed intelligent and described 
themselves as open-minded both were also overawed that 
a glamorous and legendary companion would deign to give 
them counseling and amazed that her fees were so 
reasonable. 


As her shuttle entered the landing pattern for the 
white pine spaceport she noticed the usual cluster of 
rough housing in cheap bars and casinos and brothels. 
They had grown up between the port and the workers 
quarters which were laid out in the traditional pattern 
of the terraforming authority with another cluster near 
the local mines and processing mills. 

Inara thought. "Oh well, this is how Londinium and 
Shinon had started out hundreds of years ago."

Once landed she contracted with a healthy looking and 
good natured Pedi cab driver who gave her a running 
commentary on the local sites such as they were. She 
had chosen a nondescript traveling cloak with hood and 
a sturdy traveling kit on wheels that Book had given 
her as a parting gift.

When she had arrived, Inara paid her driver and 
announced herself. She then greeted her clients in the 
traditional manner. Their child had been sent on a 
sleepover with trusted friends. 

After they welcomed her in, and they shared tea, Inara 
silently appraised them: Gabriel was a tall, muscular 
good looking man with a good mixture of African 
ancestry and Mocha colored skin. Harmony was a willow 
thin oriental of striking beauty. Both were obviously 
techno-geeks. Gabriel hid his nervousness and 
discomfort by being over solicitous and was obliviously 
relieved to be sent off on a superfluous errand. 

Inara and Harmony settled into girl talk and while the 
chatted; Inara asked her how she felt about her 
sexuality. Harmony replied that she had been raised in 
a traditional Chinese household with repressed 
sexuality and her few experiments in tech school were 
brief and unsatisfactory. She always felt that she was 
unattractive and that men felt intimidated by her 
intelligence. Inara laughed and stated that based on 
her looks, brains and grace, Harmony would have been 
considered as an obvious candidate for companion 
school.

Harmony blushed at the compliment and Inara took her 
hand in hers and said "Let's make you beautiful for 
Gabriel." While Inara supervised her toilette, she 
selected several items of jewelry for Harmony including 
toe rings and a belly necklace that would compliment 
her long delicate toes and tiny waist.. Inara also 
selected perfume, aphrodisiacs and sex crèmes. 

As Harmony dressed, and Inara washed, they talked about 
the life of a companion. It was clear that Harmony was 
starting to display a schoolgirl crush on Inara. She 
also confessed that she was secretly disappointed in 
her first encounter that Gabriel was a virgin with even 
less experience than she; however, his good looks and 
sweet nature had won her over.

Inara laughed and clapped her hands "Excellent, It 
looks like we have our work cut out for us, don't we?" 
Harmony charmingly blushed and smiled at the floor. 
When Gabriel arrived, Inara sent him into the shower 
with a simple garment and instructions to shave and put 
on a very small amount of his best cologne. When he 
emerged, they were all dressed in a simple toga-like 
silk garment that was clasped at the shoulder, the 
standard companion training outfit for the sex 
practical labs.

Candles had been lit, and Gabriel stood there in awe of 
the two beautiful women who stood in front of him, the 
glamorous companion and his suddenly gorgeous wife. 
Perhaps it was the aphrodisiac scented incense that 
Inara had lit or the seductive perfume that his wife 
was wearing. Inara then had Gabriel light a recently 
purchased pipe full of spice weed.

Inara then told them that they should consider 
themselves companions in training and that she would be 
their instructor. "Now I realize that we are all clean 
and relaxed, but I want to teach you how to wash each 
other's feet." Inara then taught them her specialty by 
example and had them repeat on each other and then on 
herself.

When they were pleasantly relaxed, Inara began to 
describe how beautiful she thought Harmony looked that 
night. She praised her shiny blue black hair and the 
smooth texture of her "old ivory" colored skin. "Now 
Gabriel, I want you to forget everything you know about 
Harmony and approach her as if pleasing her was the 
most important task of your life." 

Gabriel nervously swallowed and nervously reached out 
towards his wife. Inara was secretly both amused and 
touched at the slight tremble with which he stroked the 
mother of his child. Inara then had him approach 
Harmony from the back and smell her hair and neck while 
he stroked her arms and pressed her palms to his lips. 
At Inara's command, he loosed the clasp at his wife's 
shoulder and began a light massage and kissing of her 
back. "Now, Harmony, I want you to turn to Gabe and let 
him look at your breasts. Gabriel, really look at them 
and worship her perfectly conical breasts with gentle 
kisses and caresses" Inara again smiled inwardly at the 
tender and marveling manner that these life partners 
were treating one another.

As Harmony lay back on her bed, Inara had Gabriel kiss 
down her torso to her stomach and remove the rest of 
her toga. At that point Inara poured a small amount of 
a liquid into Harmony's navel that she had been warming 
against her own skin. She told them that it was an 
aphrodisiac and would increase Gabriel's stamina when 
he licked it out of her belly button. 

Inara instructed. "Now I would like you to kiss down 
one leg to her toes and then back up the other leg."

As he neared the juncture of her thighs, harmony began 
to open up her legs. When he hesitated, Inara asked 
Gabriel how much he knew about cunnilingus.

Gabriel turned a pleasing sort of pink and stammered 
"Next to nothing." 

Inara smiled "Good, I prefer to pour into an empty 
cup."

"Before we begin I want to stress that we will only be 
working on basic techniques that will be easy to repeat 
and that you will both enjoy. More advanced techniques 
are often complicated and stressful for beginning 
students of the sexual arts. Now, watch very carefully 
as I demonstrate because you will have to repeat the 
procedure." With that, she began kissing and licking 
around Harmony's bush, working her way to the soft and 
sensitive skin between her legs and mons. 

When Inara had approved Gabriel's attempts to copy her 
and Harmony was starting to moan, Inara took out a 
small vial filled with glittering dust. Unscrewing the 
cap, she extracted a feather and used it to lightly 
dust Harmony's nether lips. "This is an antimicrobial 
and antifungal herbal mix which will reduce friction 
and increase her sensitivity and tastes good to boot." 

She then lowered her head and with an open mouth, blew 
on Harmony's mound. Harmony groaned and raised her sex 
to Inara's lips. The companion lightly flicked her 
tongue up and down Harmony's labia. Harmony began to 
tremble and collapsed back on the bed. Inara looked up 
into Harmony's lust lidded eyes and turned to Gabriel 
"Now you try." 

As Gabriel began to imitate her, Inara guided Harmony's 
hand to top of Gabe's head in order to guide him in his 
ministrations to her now swollen and gleaming lips and 
protruding button. With both Inara and Gabe lying 
between Harmony's bent knees, the companion couldn't 
help but notice Gabriel's growing bulge pressing 
against her leg. "Now Gabriel, aren't you sorry you 
didn't try this before?"

Gabriel tried to respond but it came out something like 
"Yesh mamm"

Inara laughed "Don't try to talk with your mouth full." 
When Inara moved up to tell Harmony not to press Gabe's 
head so hard she placed her hand on Harmony's bicep, 
Harmony suddenly grabbed Inara's hand and pulled it to 
her breast. She arched her back, clamped her thighs on 
Gabe's head and began to buck up and down while her 
eyes rolled wildly in her head. Suddenly, she screwed 
her eyes shut and her face flushed scarlet while she 
gave a wild and beautiful scream of pleasure "Lao-tyen 
boo!" and collapsed back on the bed like a rag doll.

Gabriel looked up in surprise and Inara said "I think 
that's enough prep work Gabe, just hold her and let her 
catch her breath."

Harmony tremblingly pulled Gabriel into an embrace and 
kissed him "Xie-Xie, honey that never happened before!" 
Then she turned to Inara and kissed her too and gushed 
"Xie-Xie, Inara, Runtse de SHANG-DEE, you are a 
wonderful teacher!"

Inara nodded her head modestly "No, I just had good 
teachers." She paused. "Well, if you are ready, it is 
your turn to be the student and Gabriel will be the 
subject. Gabe, sit up and let Harmony take off your 
smock."

Gabriel complied and the lifted garment revealed a very 
large erection. As his face reddened under Inara's 
gaze, she commented "Well, Gabriel, your 'Trumpet' is 
very impressive but let's make sure you don't sound it 
too soon." Gabriel laughed and Inara could see the 
tension go out of his shoulders. "Now Harmony, what do 
you know about felatio?"

It was Harmony's turn to look embarrassed " Well, my 
girlfriend and I tried to experiment on a male techie 
back at the U." when Gabriel looked astounded, she 
defended herself "Look, honey, nothing happened, he was 
too drunk to even get it up."

Inara exclaimed "Excellent, another tabla Rosa to work 
with. Harmony, I want you to start with Gabe's chest, 
lick and kiss him, paying particular attention to his 
very sensitive nipples." While she was dong this, 
Gabriel attempted to fondle Harmony's breasts. Inara 
swatted him away "She's the student and you're the 
subject, wait your turn." 

When Harmony inquired if she too would be drinking from 
Gabriel's navel, Inara replied "No Mei-mei, orgasm just 
gives women more energy not less; besides, with Gabe 
here at full gantry, I doubt if you could even get to 
his navel." 

Harmony laughed nervously "I don't even know where to 
start."

Inara smiled "Start by kissing and licking in large 
circles everywhere but his genitals, gradually weave 
your net tighter and tighter. Remember, you are not a 
dog and this is not a bone. Instead, think like a cat 
playing with its' prey." To Gabriel's alarmed look, 
Inara calmed him with "It's only metaphors, silly."

When Harmony had worked her way inward but still 
hesitated, Inara approved "Good, now let me apply this 
gel. It will reduce his sensitivy and it's anti-
microbial and I think you will like the taste." With 
that she applied the gel with both hands and her 
fingers laced and working them up and down in a 
swirling pattern (thinking, "Sweet Buddha, this thing 
requires two hands!"). When it was completely 
glistening, she cupped her hands under his basket and 
lowered her mouth to gently blow up and down his shaft 
then lick with a flickering tongue back up to his 
glans. She slowed down to bathe the head and then to 
pop it into her mouth like a large ripe strawberry. The 
sight of the beautiful companion performing expert 
felatio held both her clients in complete awe.

When Gabriel began to rapidly pant and twitch, Inara 
gave the base a firm squeeze and raised her head to 
look him in the eye. "Daoist health theory states that 
the ratio of your wife's orgasms to yours is in direct 
proportion to the health, longevity and the sexual 
prowess of both of you. Therefore, the more you can 
hold back, the better it will be for all concerned." 

Inara then turned to Harmony and releasing her grip on 
Gabriel "Now you try, and remember to monitor the 
tightness of the skin of his basket and tighten your 
grip on the shaft when he starts to get excited." 
Monitoring Harmony's technique and offering helpful 
comments, Inara noticed that Harmony was spending too 
much bobbing of her head up and down and trying to jam 
as much as possible of him into her mouth. "No Mei-mei, 
"that technique will produce a tired jaw and would only 
be useful in getting him off which is not what we are 
striving for, is it?'

"Sorry, Sufi, I was just getting into it."

"Well, that's enough hors 'd orderves; let's move on to 
the main course. I want you both of you to lie down on 
your right sides with Harmony in front." "Harmony, 
place Gabriel's staff of jade between your legs and 
apply this lubricant to him while working your cinnabar 
gate against him as you rock back and forth. Both of 
you should use your left hands to touch one another 
because it's the best path to the right brain and 
that's the quickest way to learn body skills."

When Gabriel finally did push into Harmony, she saw 
Harmony's eyes glaze over and her lids grow heavy with 
lust. When he had achieved full penetration, Inara told 
him to stop and just experience the moment and the feel 
of his wife and to carefully explore her cinnabar gate 
while Harmony should cradle his sack of gold in order 
to appreciate his virility and to monitor his 
excitement.

"Ok, Gabriel, now pull out until only the head is still 
in and make small, shallow thrusts alternating with 
slow deep penetration in a ratio of seven to one. 
Gradually decrease the ratio until its all deep and 
then reverse the process. This will produce a pattern 
of peaks and troughs to her arousal."

Inara watched with approval and smiled with amusement 
when she noticed that Gabriel was silently counting his 
strokes. She reached over and slapped his butt "Lighten 
up Gabe; this is a dance, it's not a formula. Listen to 
the music and pay attention to your partner." 

"Don't worry; it's also the way he dances." Gabriel 
laughed and Harmony panted as she threw her leg over 
his and clasped him closer. As the two of them began to 
work together, a sweat formed on their bodies. 
Increasing their pace, they began to syncopate until 
Harmony suddenly froze and reached down to squeeze 
Gabe. "Not yet, please Bao-bei, not yet." When they 
began anew, Harmony looked up at Inara and with a mix 
of gratitude and pleasure; she grasped the companion's 
hand.

Inara returned the clasp with a tender touch and for a 
moment there was a silent communication and celebration 
of the sexual spirituality and communion with the 
Goddess that was the highest form of the companion's 
art. As Inara gazed down on their mutual writhing, she 
marveled at how beautiful they were in both raw 
sexuality and in the tender mutual labor of love and 
how unlike her wealthy core clients and their posturing 
and pretense. The sight, sound and smell of good sex 
surged over her washing away all her detached and 
critical reserve.

Just then Harmony's face clouded over and her eyes 
rolled back in her head. Pulling her husband into her, 
she cried "now, Bao-bei, for sweet Buddha's sake, now!" 
Both of them gave a mighty roar and shuddered and 
jerked to a powerful climax. Inara's own vagina 
clenched in sympathy and she trembled in the sudden 
wash of feeling. Harmony turned to Gabriel and gave him 
a long tender kiss and then pulled their teacher to her 
to deliver the same kiss. "Sufi, please join us." 

Inara smiled "How could I refuse such wonderful 
clients? But as your teacher I need to remind you that 
once I was as green as you and that only through long 
practice with a light heart can you become the great 
lovers that lie within you."

The companion then dropped her own garment to reveal 
the loveliness of her olive skin and the perfection of 
her body. And with a feral grin and a twinkle in her 
eye she lay down beside the lovers. "Now let's have 
fun, shall we?" 

With the dawn, Inara slipped out of her new friend's 
home still tingling with the feel of shared delight 
(and Gabriel's 'horn') and not a little of the 
tenderness that comes with a good workout. She stepped 
to the Pedi cab stand buoyant but tired and noted with 
surprise that her Pedi cab driver was still at the curb 
sitting with his conical hat pulled down over his face. 
As she stepped closer, he rose with a sly smile and she 
noted with alarm that it was not the same man and took 
a step backwards only to feel the slap of an expertly 
applied cosh to the base of her skull from a second man 
who had slipped up behind her. As she slid towards 
blackness, she thought "How stupid...."
