Fade out, then fade in on interview.

Nikki: How did you like the shoot today? [Laughs]

James: It was really fun! I’m really glad that this finally was able to happen. I feel like we’ve been talking about shooting for—

Nikki [whispering]: Forever!

James: —Forever, yeah

Nikki: [Laughs] Yeah, it’s great that it actually happened. [Laughs]

James: Yeah, that was very, very fun.

Nikki: Yes.

James: How did you enjoy the shoot?

Nikki: Really, like, oh my God, so good! I’m still really cum-drunk right now, which is great! I squirted everywhere, which—

James: Yeah, I’m still covered in your squirts; I’m feeling very anointed, very blessed.

Nikki: Thank you! Thank you.

[James laughs]

Nikki: Yeah, it was really awesome. Like you said before, we had been talking about doing something, and shooting, and I’m glad we finally did it, and it was well worth the wait. [Laughs]

James: Absolutely!

[Fade to video. Nikki is mostly offscreen. James is kneeling between her legs, fingering her vigorously. Nikki is moaning loudly.]

Nikki: Oh, yes! Oh, thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

[James laughs as Nikki squirts profusely.]

Nikki: Oh yes! Oh! Oh!

[Nikki sits up slightly, sticking out her tongue. James puts his hand near her mouth, and she licks it.]

James: Clean up your mess.

[Fade back to interview.]

Nikki: What did you find more—or most—challenging about the shoot?

James: I mean, it was pretty smooth today. I’m having a hard time thinking of anything, other than that it had to stop at some point.

Nikki: Yeah! [Laughs]

James: I don’t know, did you find anything particularly challenging about today?

Nikki: Actually, yeah, I can’t really think of anything that was really challenging. It was a really great and easy shoot, and it’s really nice and refreshing to have those days where it doesn’t feel like work, or you know, it doesn’t feel like you have to muscle through something, and I feel like it flowed really well, and it was an easygoing day. [Laughs]

[Fade to video. Nikki is going down on James. Both are moaning, and Nikki starts gagging as James thrusts. Fade back to interview.]

James: So, what are your safe sex practices, and why?

Nikki: [Laughs] I usually get tested at least once a month at the very least. On more—on like the more—what is it? I can’t talk—on the more frequent occasions, it’s every two weeks. [Laughs] There we go! And, yeah, that’s my way of safe practices. In other occasions, sometimes, when it comes to hands and stuff like that, sometimes I like gloves, just ‘cause I like the feeling of gloves better. And putting condoms on toys and things like that, especially toys that are used by multiple partners, and those are my safe sex practices, because those have just been the things that have made me feel more comfortable, and feel like I’m protected when I’m engaging with other people. What are your safe sex practices, and why?

James: For me, I get tested very frequently, I’m currently on Truvada, and yeah, a lot of it’s about communication, and learning what’s about sex, and making sure everybody’s on the same page about what feels good and safe for them.

[Fade to video. Nikki is preparing to take James from behind.]

James: Can I get the lube? Should have put it over here. Not that we’re probably gonna need it [unintelligible, due to laughing]

Nikki: [Laughs] I don’t think you’re gonna need it!

[Unintelligible, multiple people talking and laughing simultaneously.]

Offscreen: Is that quick-drying, or?

James: Actually, it’s a water-based—

Offscreen: Okay.

James: Since it’s a silicone toy.

Offscreen: Sorry. Anyways!

[Nikki laughs, and runs her hands over her breasts, then smiles at the camera.]

Ofscreen: Safety!

Nikki: Safety!

James: Safety in all forms!

[Nikki laughs. Fade to interview.]

James: So, yeah, why do you continue to do porn?

Nikki: [Laughs] I continue to do porn because it makes me feel good about myself. It is a way of expressing my sexuality and expressing the beauty and the comfort that I feel with myself with other people, and I really like doing it in the ways that make me feel comfortable, and not necessarily adhering to what society says I should or shouldn’t do, but doing what feels good for me. And that’s why I continue to do porn. Why do you continue to do porn, James?

James: I love porn as an artistic medium. I get to do things that I don’t know if it would be possible otherwise, and I like having that kind of control over my creative license and image, and expressing myself in that way, because I’m a very sexual being, and I like being able to show other people that. [James and Nikki both laugh] Yeah, and also, to add my own voice in the mix of what’s possible for somebody with my body and sexuality, and express that. So, those are a lot of reasons, and also, it’s just fun!

Nikki [whispering]: It’s really fun! [Laughs]

[Fade to video. Nikki is on all fours. James is pounding into her from behind. James cums loudly and continues groaning.]

Nikki: Yes! Yes! [Both groan and moan] Oh my God, yes!

[James pulls out, caresses Nikki’s vulva, then leans forward as Nikki sits up. They kiss passionately. James caresses Nikki’s body. Fade to interview.]

Nikki: Is there anything more you’d like to say about today, or porn, or life?

James: Sure! Yeah, I mean, last time I was here, I was pretty convinced that was going to be the last time I was going to shoot for CrashPad, so I’m really grateful that CrashPad’s still here, and still keeping the dream alive, and asking me back to be a slut on camera. [Nikki laughs] So that’s something that’s really special, that this space still exists, and I really appreciate that.

Nikki: My closing statements—I’m also really happy that CrashPad is still around. It was one of the first places I shot when I was newly getting into this industry, and it makes me really happy to know that even like seven years later, it still is that safe space, and that place where I can just be me. And it’s really great, so yeah.

James, offscreen: Awesome!

[Fade out.]
