Friends among humans

The goblin sisters Orkra and Tirkiz are just relaxing in their home, when suddenly their father Grozog approaches them.

Hey, I've been thinking about something.
I guess you're old enough to get to know humans.
And I heard there's a school. That's a place where you can get to know a lot of humans around your age.
you're probably old enough to get to know humans. And I heard there's a school, a place where you can get to know a lot of young humans around your age.
And they even accept all humanoids there.

Oh, sounds interesting. I never heard about humans before.

Are we supposed to eat them?

Then they probably won't allow you to live among them anymore.
So if you want to try one, rather do it in secret.

Okay, let's to it in secret then.

Or maybe it's best not to eat them at all.
At least until we know them.

Yeah, I think you're smarter than me.

And maybe we like them, just like we like each other.
Then I wouldn't want to eat them.
Not eating them at all would probably be the safest way.

We'll see.

Tirkiz just smiles.
She still wants to try them.

A few days later Grozog walks his two daughters to the school.
It must have been a long time since they left their cave the last time.
They don't even remember how it looks outside.

So they're walking on a sunny day under the blue sky on green grass, and push each other for fun.

And after walking for a while, they enter a town.
And there they soon reach a huge building.
That's the school.
Grozog already registered them, so they can just go in.

Just do what everybody else does if you aren't sure.
Today there's the introduction meeting.

They enter school together and most of the humans, who actually don't look too different from goblins, gather in some huge hall inside that building.

What?!? Are we really supposed to eat them?
I expected something else...

See!

The sisters also follow the humans into the hall.
It seems like most of the humans try to keep a little more distance to them than to other humans
Probably because they don't know goblins.

There are a bunch of seats in this hall. And humans are sitting on them. So they both also sit down next to each other.

Humans are not sitting close for a while.
Most of them seem to avoid them.
But soon some girl around their age sits down next to Orkra.

She just looks to them quickly, but doesn't really mind them.

Orkra, though, can't stop looking at the unknown person so close to her.

After a while the girl notices the stare.
She looks at Orkra, not really sure what to do.

Hi!

Hey.

I'm Elora.

Tirkiz leans over her sister.

I'm Tirkiz. And this is Orkra.

Oh, okay.

She doesn't seem that interested.

So what are we waiting for?

Just a welcome speech.
Then we'll get assigned to classes.

Soon an ugly looking human in front of them starts to talk and they listen to his speech.
They don't know yet that's just what humans look like when they get older.

They learn more about this place and soon get assigned to a class.
Since the sisters are sitting next to each other, they'll be in the same class.

For the first few days, they only visit school, sit down and do what they're supposed to do.
But soon they start to talk more and more with the humans.

One day Elora and Orkra are standing in some corridor together.
She's in the same class, too, so they already talked a few times.

I'm glad I found somebody like you. I never had a friend before.

So you already consider us friends?
We never met in private.

Does that really matter?
We get along well, don't we?

I guess you're right.

But if you like, you can still visit me.

I'm not sure about that.

Why that?

To be honest, the first time I saw you, I was a little scared of you.

You were the one who sat down next to me.

I was late, so I didn't really have another choice.
But I think, you're okay.

From now on, they almost spend each break together.

So, is it really true that you're a goblin, Orkra?

I am!

But goblins eat humans, don't they?

Sure, they do. Are you interested?

Elora already is scared.

No!!!
So you would eat me?

I don't think so. I never ate humans before.

Orkra smells at Elora.

On the other hand you smell very delicious.

Orkra giggles, so Elora joins in.

You know that this counts as murder here, right?
And murderers get killed here.
They would likely kill you.

I know. If I ate humans, everybody would be scared of me.
They are scared of me already.

But they won't be if a human like me spends more time with you, right?

And so Elora spends time with Orkra more regularly.

Another day, Elora approaches Orkra during break.

Hey, would you like to visit me?
We're friends now, so we probably should also spend time together outside of school.

Sure, sounds fun. I never visited a friend before.

Nice. But don't eat my family.

Elora giggles.

It only takes a few days until Orkra actually visits Elora at her place.
Just after entering her flat, Orkra already likes it there.

Oh, it smells nice in here.
Your family must be delicious, too.

No, no! That's not what they are there for!

Orkra laughs cheekily.

Yeah, I know...

Suddenly some small person passes by.

Who is that?

He's my little brother.

Oh, could I taste him?

I already told you. Don't eat my family!

Just a little bite. Maybe one hand. Or one foot.
Nothing more. That's all.

Elora looks annoyed at Orkra.

Would you like to live for your whole life with a hand or foot missing?

Probably not.

Then just don't do such a thing to him.
I want to be able to trust you.
But your attitude makes it difficult.

I'm sorry. You can trust me.
I would never eat somebody without asking you.

Great! Just don't hurt my family.

I'm happy with other food, too. You know?
I'd probably eat anything.
You know, I never ate humans before. I don't even know how to start.

Then I probably was scared for nothing.
But you're a goblin and I still don't know you that well, so I have to be careful.
I hope you get that.

Sure.

Let's just go to my room, okay?

Orkra follows Elora into her room.
Elora lies down in her bed to relax.
Now they're completely alone.

It's really nice here. I don't have my own room.

Sure. That's pretty common.

The room smells like Elora.
And Orkra also likes to look at her just lying there.
She would be a perfect prey.

I'm really getting hungry now.

You want me?

You would let me?
No, we're friends. I can't.
Do you have some food here?
Or maybe, would you actually...?

Of course I wouldn't let you eat me.
And sorry, we don't have food right now.
Can you wait until dinner?

Okay.

Then Orkra gets into the bed with Elora and cuddles her.

Hey, what are you doing?

She struggles a little.

I just wanted to cuddle.
What else would we do in the bed?

Oh, I already thought you would just...
No, sorry. I know you wouldn't.
It's okay. I just didn't expect it.

Elora also hugs Orkra, and they cuddle.

After a while Orkra grabs the pants of Elora and tries to pull them down.

Elora giggles.

Hey! What are you doing there?

I thought, we should get more comfortable.
Or should I get naked first?

No, we won't get naked here!
I don't know what you do at home, but you shouldn't do such things here.
Would you like me to show you what we usually do when we meet?

Sure.

Elora gets up, leaves the room and soon comes back with a board game.

Let's play this!

Orkra doesn't know board games, but after Elora explains her, it's a lot of fun to her.
She almost doesn't want to stop.

After a while, the mother calls them for dinner.
So they go down and eat with the rest of the family.
The food is much more delicious than anything Orkra had at home or at school.

The family is a little uncomfortable, but also interested to get to know her. So they ask a lot of questions.
And Orkra is eager to answer them all.
She tells them a lot about her life at home.
Somehow she doesn't get to talk about the kinky things they're doing at home. They don't ask the right questions, and it doesn't seem relevant to her.

After dinner Orkra wants to go home again.
Her father might be mad if she doesn't come home at night.

Before leaving, Orkra and Elora hug and promise to be good friends.
Orkra wants this to be a long friendship. Even if Elora must be delicious, she doesn't want to eat her.
