An oversight is quickly corrected

As Carissa gets her equipment sorted and prepares to start in Gloria, you suddenly realize a flaw in your grand scheme: Amy has the ability to transfer your power because you gave if to her earlier. When you wrote on her that her skills were really your skills, it gave her license to write on your behalf. Well, you haven't done that with her mother yet. Any tattoo that Carissa makes will be her own work and carry none of your power. You have to fix this. Now.

You walk over to Amy and whisper to her, explaining the problem. She understands immediately. "Mom's not going to let you write something on her, Ryan. This is all... well... she's still trying to absorb it, you know? She's not going to join the harem - not on her own." She giggles.

You think about that a moment. It's true, Carissa is unlikely to let you anywhere near her with your marker... Then it dawns on you. Amy. She can do it, just like she did for her sister, Olivia. Amy's smart though, she's already a step ahead of you. She's pulls your marker out of your pocket and looks at you, smiling mischievously: "You need me to do it, don't you?" She chuckles and walks over to her mother. You watch as there's a brief conversation and then Amy writes something on her mother's arm. Her mother looks down at her arm and then at you briefly, and then nods to her daughter before starting her work on Gloria. Amy walks back over to you with an absolutely huge, shit-eating grin. You're almost afraid to ask.

"You're dying to know, aren't you?" She shoves the marker back in your jeans pocket, her hand lingering inside the pocket for a few extra seconds... She pulls her hand back and pinches you lightly, then leans in to whisper: "I wrote: 'Ryan Ferro's skills - and refusals.'"

She laughs evilly as your brain churns, trying to unravel what she just did. She goes back to Kelly, who's nearly done, and continues to glance back at you as you work it out.

It's clear that her mother's skills should transfer your power now - although it's mostly untested. You know that what Amy writes has the desired effect - her sister Olivia is clear evidence of that - but can she force the skill transfer too? The theory is sound but... well, you guess you'll just have to wait and see how Gloria is after she's done.

As to the other part... Amy wrote that Carissa's refusals are now yours too. What does that mean? Does it mean that her mother can't refuse something... or someone? You blink. Damn. You get it now. Gods you feel slow sometimes. Amy is laughing, she can tell you just figured it out. She glances at you and just nods. She made it so her mother can't say no to you. Or to anyone else, unless you allow it. Lust suddenly drives your brain straight over the cliff as you lose yourself imagining all of the fun you'll have with her soon. You make a mental note to thank Amy later - and to make sure you stay on her good side.
