Go to the store

Greed is a powerful thing. So is lust. And right now, both of those feelings are working in tandem. Because, I know, at best, I may only find a couple toys that I would want to use by going through those boxes, and that even if I only had begun to scratch the surface with these two, they are still only two women. The idea of having so many more women on retainer of different body types, ages, races/ethnicities, and, potentially, species is too tempting not to see through. Even if I’m not going to bring them all to life right now. Not to mention, there are so many new toys out there compared to when I was a kid. So many new shows, movies, video games, etc. have released merchandising that I can take full advantage of.

I explain my decision to Bo & Jessie, and while they are just a bit disappointed, they completely understood. They also reminded me that, yes toys and dolls can be used, but there are other things that fall into the category of being able to be brought to life: keychains, piggy banks, figurines, etc. As long as they meet the appropriate criteria.

I leave the talisman at the house and drive over to the nearest department store to begin my search. When I finally arrive, I start doing the math in my head about how much I can spend today. I get a cart and think about what aisle I want to stop by first, keeping in mind that the magic of the talisman doesn’t just work on toys, so there’s a few options.
