My Head & My Heart

Nick took a long time to finish his tea. He didn’t even really like tea, as Dawn was well aware, but he did it out of respect for her efforts. He could see from her smile just how much it meant to her, for him to truly enjoy what she’d brewed for him. And he did like well enough.

Of course, he had another motive for dragging out his tea consumption.

Rose wants me to pick what transformation she should copy with her Method Acting transformation. She wants me to go with what I would find sexiest. But there are a lot of really sexy transformations to choose from.

His eyes met Rose’s from across the table, and she gave him a saucy wink. She knew how hard he was deliberating on this, and she was definitely enjoying it.

Should I just pick something at random? No, that wouldn’t be fair. I gave Dawn’s some serious thought, so I really should pick something for Rose seriously.

He tried to remember the exact wording of Rose’s bounty.

Use Method Acting to Copy a Sexual Transformation on your Night with the Master – 500 BP

So it has to be a sexual transformation. But what counts as a sexual transformation under that criteria, then? He wondered. I guess that means I can’t pick something that isn’t inherently sexual, like Kim’s Model Employee transformation or the one she got this round, that lets her pick up a rejected transformation. And while it might be sexy to have two cat girls, Dawn’s cat girl transformation isn’t really a sexual one, is it? No, the transformation has to be inherently sexual itself. So I suppose that eliminates clothing transformations as well. Not that she’d want me to pick one of those, given she’s already dressed up like Morgana.

That still left a lot of transformations to pick from. And like Dawn, Rose was putting a lot of faith in Nick, letting him choose which transformation she’d copy for tonight.

Because of Rose’s current outfit, the first thing that came to Nick’s mind was Morgana and her transformations. After all, if Rose was copying her style, she might want to copy one of her transformations as well, just to make the parallel even stronger. Was that fair to Morgana? Maybe, maybe not, but Nick wasn’t going to care that much about it.

Most body enhancement transformations, like Big Titty Goth Girlfriend or Gothicc were probably out then. They wouldn’t have much of an impact with Rose’s already amazing figure, especially considering the enhancements Vivian had made. Plus, expanding her butt might be an unfair advantage in the upcoming competition.

The first idea he had was Sotto Voce. Nick could feel himself getting hard again just at the thought of that one.

Dawn’s pheromones are arousing her, and the other girls including Rose. If I let Rose copy Sotto Voce, then she’d be able to arouse everyone even more with her words. If those transformations stack, then… wow.

It was an exhilarating thought, and a compelling one. Nick had half a mind to bring it up and see what the others thought, but he decided against it in the end. As sexy of an idea as Rose being able to arouse them all with her voice was, he had firsthand experience with how powerful that transformation was in Morgana’s hands.

And Rose didn’t know when to shut up.

Nope. He wasn’t taking that risk, no matter how sexy it seemed.

Besides, there were other transformations he could choose from, something like…

“Something the matter, Nick?”

Nick jumped, not expecting to hear someone talking to him. But really, he should have been expecting it. After all, he was the center of attention, wasn’t he? Everything in the Master’s Suite revolved around him.

So when Dawn asked him if anything was the matter, and he looked up to see all eyes in the room focused on him, he really should have anticipated that.

Nick swallowed and **** a smile to his lips.

“What do you mean?” He asked as casually as he could. “What would be the matter?”

Oh nice work, Nick. Very convincing.

Nick swallowed, knowing he sounded like an idiot. But he’d have to just take that on the chin.

“You look like you’re thinking about something perverted,” Holly said. A lewd grin stretched across her face.

Nick frowned. It was like she had a sixth sense for this stuff, as if she could just tell when he was aroused! Talk about infuriating. But he held his ground.

“It’s nothing that serious,” he said firmly. “I’m just giving some real thought to something I was asked about, that’s all.”

“Oh, you mean when Rose asked you to pick which transformation you wanted her to copy tonight with Method Acting?” Dawn asked, drawing the issue out into the light.

Thanks, Dawn.

Mary looked at Nick in surprise. “Wait, Rose asked you something like that?” She turned to Rose next, a look of amazement on her face.

Rose frowned. “Yeah, he did, so what?” She scoffed, scratching her cheek. “It’s not that big of a deal or anything.”

Mary frowned. She thought it was a very big deal, actually. But she also thought it was a good thing. “It’s nothing, I’m just… surprised, that’s all. I would have expected you to come up with some strategy to seduce him with your Method Acting transformation or something.”

Nick couldn’t help but smile. It seemed that, as usual, he and Mary were very much on the same page about things.

Nola laughed. “I think it’s really smart!” She said, complimenting Rose.

Holly nodded. Her eyes were sparkling with excitement. “It’s a great idea!” She nodded rapidly. “Just think! Nick gets to pick whatever he wants! The sexiest transformation out there to copy, whatever will turn him on the most!” She snapped her head around to look at Mary, her eyes practically drilling holes in the surprised girl. “Don’t you think so?”

Mary jumped a little. “Err, I guess, yeah,” she admitted with a shaky nod. “But why are you asking me…?”

Holly shrugged. “I mean, you are his wife,” she pointed out. “You more than anyone should know what gets him going.”

Mary turned scarlet and smiled at the same time Rose’s complexion turned ashy and she scowled.

Rose crossed her arms over her chest. “Oh, really?” She muttered sulkily to herself. “So that’s how it is, huh?”

Nick sighed. “Rose…”

“No, no, I get it,” she scoffed, waving her hand. “Mary knows you best, after all…”

“This isn’t about Mary and I,” Nick said, putting his foot down and bringing an end to that particular discussion direction. He looked adamantly at Rose. “This is about the two of us, Rose. You and me, and what WE want.”

Rose smiled a little when she heard that and blushed. But she quickly played it off with a confident sneer on her face. “Well, you’re not wrong there,” she crowed. “So go ahead, Nick, what are you thinking? Any killer ideas?”

Dawn winced. She knew that if Nick was still deliberating after everything, then he really was stuck. She could smell the decision paralysis coming off him in waves.

Or maybe that was the pheromones. Either way, she found it sexy.

“Maybe if we all talk it through, it could help,” Mary offered timidly. She didn’t want to upset Rose or anything like that, but she thought it might be a good idea.

“I think that’s smart! We can all pitch in, and help Nick come up with sexy ideas!” Holly needed very little convincing, obviously.

Rose bit her lip. She wasn’t sure how much of Mary’s involvement she was okay with, but if Nick wanted this… she would go along as best she could. “…Okay then,” she relented with a nod. “If that’s what you think is best, Nick.”

Nick really appreciated that Rose was trusting him with this. Really, he did. It helped him feel more confident himself.

But before he could say what he was thinking, Holly already seized control of the conversation.

“I think Rose should copy Vivian’s transformation,” she loudly declared. “Higher Breeding! The one that makes her have a breeding fetish! If she’s not going to get any use out of it, then someone should, don’t you guys think?”

“What!?” Rose turned bright red as she considered the implications there.

She wasn’t the only one. Mary’s eyes widened and her mouth twisted into a surprised “O” shape as she let Holly’s idea sink in. Her eyes slid over to Nick and she looked at him like she was giving this thing some genuine serious thought.

Nick really didn’t like that look in her eyes. Not one bit.

“Rose did get that boon,” Dawn recalled, smirking. She enjoyed giving the other girl some grief. Rose had been delighting herself in teasing Nick all through the meal, it was time she got some just desserts herself. “You know, the one that lets her control her fertility? I think that could be a very… potent combination.”

Holly and Nola joined the cat girl in a good session of snickering and casting knowing looks in Nick’s direction.

Nick’s eye twitched, and he tried to ignore how much his cock was reacting to that idea. He grimaced and felt his erection throb. Nope. It was just too hot not to think about.

“If… if we’re thinking about what would make Nick happiest… what would… turn him on the most…” Mary swallowed, her mouth feeling incredibly dry. She hadn’t expected this, not at all. For everything she’d said at dinner about wanting to keep things clean, now that they were actually talking about it, she felt her loins start to ache. She rubbed her legs together, doing little to quell her raging heat due to the skimpiness of her denim shorts.

This… this was too hot for her. Her heart was pounding with excitement as she found herself seriously considering it, even though she knew it was wrong. Rose… Rose wouldn’t want this… but she should… it… it would be for the best…

Nick saw the look in his wife’s eyes, and knew that Holly had successfully swayed her. She may have been able to keep from saying it aloud, but he knew what her heart wanted, and he couldn’t succumb. He looked across the table at Rose, who seemed to be stunned into shock. She looked almost numb, like she wasn’t sure what to say.

Not a great sign.

“Rose…” Nick’s voice cracked.

She jumped, coming back to reality. She looked at him with alarm, and… something else in her eyes as well.

Trust.

That’s right. Rose trusted me with this. She trusted me to choose what transformation she uses her Method Acting on. She knows that if I choose that one, the one Holly suggested, then she would most likely develop a breeding fetish of her own; and she knows that I have one, too. Between the two of us then… and with her boon… she would almost certainly give in, and then we’d… yeah.

Nick could see it all play out before him. If the momentum Holly and Mary had built up continued, then Rose would probably end the evening pregnant. She could put her foot down right now and say that was never going to happen, take back control over her transformation, but… she wasn’t doing that. She wasn’t saying anything at all.

Because she trusts me.

Rose was willing to go along with what Nick wanted. And maybe even willing to get pregnant, if that’s what he wanted.

That was sexy enough as it was.

“…I… I’m not going to pick that one,” he said, after far too long of a pause to not be suspicious.

Holly frowned. But she could tell Nick meant business. She sighed and shrugged her shoulders. “Well… I tried,” she said apologetically, looking at Mary.

Mary flinched. “Wh-what do you mean by that!?” She demanded. “You’re acting like that was MY idea or s-something!”

Holly flashed her a knowing look. “Come on… wasn’t it, though?”

“NO!” Mary screeched. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, and turned back to look at Nick. It seemed like she had more or less regained her composure, at least that’s what he hoped anyway.

“Nick, if you don’t want that, then it’s fine,” she said gently. “I’m just here to support your decisions. This is about what you want.”

Holly scooted her chair back and leaned over, peering around the table.

“…That would sound a lot more convincing if you weren’t dripping all over the floor.”

“HOLLY!”

“SHLLUUUURRRRRRPPPP!” Dawn loudly slurped from her teacup, having gone for seconds. That got everyone’s attention.

“How about one of mine?” Dawn suggested once everyone was looking at her.

Rose tilted her head to the side curiously.

“One of yours?” Nick asked.

“Earlier today, you chose not to upgrade Sexterity because you thought it would give me an unfair edge against Rose, remember?” Dawn reminded him.

Nick nodded slowly, seeing where she was going with this. “Oh… so you think that I should have Rose copy Sexterity, then?”

Dawn shrugged. “I mean… after we’re done here, we’re going to be moving on and getting to the main event… r-right?” She swallowed and glanced at Rose, whose cheeks flushed.

Rose glanced bashfully away for a fraction of a second before sitting up straight in her chair, not backing down to Dawn’s challenge.

Dawn coughed slightly, still a little embarrassed. “So what I mean is, if Rose, um, if she also had that transformation, then the competition would be pretty even, don’t you think?” She pointed out.

“Yeah, I guess so,” Nick agreed. It was definitely better than risking what would most definitely be something they might regret in the future.

“I-I don’t know about that,” Rose said quietly.

That surprised Nick, and not just a little. He looked at her. “Wait, really?” He asked, frowning. “Why not?”

If she was going to make her wishes known, why hadn’t she done that before? Why had she waited until now to say something?

Rose’s bashful expression returned. “Well, I mean… think about it, I wanted you to choose a transformation you’d find sexy,” she said quietly. “Not just for the competition or anything like that, I mean…”

She sat up a little straighter in her seat and her expression hardened. “…To begin with, I don’t like you looking down on me!” She declared.

The confrontational tone of her voice took him by surprise.

“What?!” He stammered in confusion. Where was this coming from now?

“I can beat Dawn fair and square, without that transformation!” Rose declared, crossing her arms over her chest. “Don’t think I can’t!”

Nick could see why she would feel that way. And she made a compelling case. He glanced at Dawn for a second, who just shrugged.

“…But also, um, the sexy thing,” Rose added. “I want you to pick what you want, Nick. What’s going to make the night best for you.”

“Yeah and Nick likes knocking women up,” Holly bluntly confronted her statement. She gestured to Mary. “Case in point.”

Mary blushed. Nick frowned.

“Holly, you’re just muddying the waters,” he snapped. “Stop trying to push an agenda and let me think, okay?”

Holly responded with a toothy grin. She batted her eyelashes, playing at being the innocent little thing they both knew she wasn’t.

But as bawdy as her suggestions may have been, it did help Nick refocus. And that was what he needed right now, honestly. He needed to refocus and get his mind back on the task at hand.

A sexy transformation that would improve the threesome… and also something Rose would appreciate. Something I would appreciate. Aggh, there are so many choices! Which sexy transformation would I like best? What should I… what…?

Nick wracked his brain trying to come up with a solution. If it was anyone else the answer would be easy- the best transformation for a threesome was one Rose already had, The Marital Aide. But he couldn’t just give her a copy of that. Now, if Sylvia was the person he was dealing with, and she wanted to copy a transformation with Method Acting, then her choice would be an obvious one. But that wasn’t the case here. If only there was another sexy transformation that would make things better for all of them, if only…

Wait… that’s it!

What a godsend. He had almost missed it, but there was a transformation that might make things better for everyone. And if it worked out the way he hoped it would, then it might even be better than Sotto Voce would be!

“You think of something?” Dawn’s tail flicked eagerly behind her and her ears twitched with excitement. She recognized that look in his eye, and she liked it. An impish smile touched her lips.

“Yeah, I… I think I have something,” Nick said, nodding. “I almost forgot about it, since, well… I didn’t want to think about it when it was given, to be honest. It’s… one of Sylvia’s transformations.”

Nick had been trying not to think about Sylvia in those terms; almost as much as he was trying not to think about any of Amelia’s transformations.

But remembering that Sylvia also had Method Acting had reminded him of her other transformations, and he thought it would be worth a shot.

“Sylvia’s transformations?” Rose frowned. “I don’t remember all of them…” She smiled a flirty smile. “…But if you want me to call you ‘Daddy’ you could just ask…”

“No, please, none of that,” Nick cut her off.

“Yeah, I don’t think that really counts as a sexual one,” Dawn agreed. Luckily, she DID remember all of Sylvia’s transformations. “I think I know which one you’re thinking of, Nick.”

Nick sighed in relief. “It’s the last one of her original five. Tantric Sex.”

Yep, just as Dawn thought. She wasted no time calling it up for everyone to check it out.

• Tantric Sex: Some call sex the ultimate act of getting to know another person. You both become a part of each other in the most meaningful way possible. In that sense, this transformation is the same way. Sylvia will feel all sexual pleasure she gets from any partner that she pleasures, and vice-versa, maximizing the pleasure for all parties involved. (Empathy)

Rose leaned forward, intrigued. “Ooh!” Her eyes brightened. “I completely forgot about this one!” She turned and looked at Nick. “Is this the one?”

Nick blushed and nodded. “I thought, um… since the three of us are going to be together, well… maybe it would be worth trying.”

With this, Rose could increase all of their pleasure even more. But in a way that required her to give it generously, rather than just talking, like with Sotto Voce. He hoped that would be good enough. And he was really excited to see the effects.

Rose smiled slyly beneath the brim of her hat. She was excited for the effects herself.

“Well, okay then,” she crooned, nodding eagerly. “I like the sound of this… you’ve got it, Nick.”

She copied the transformation, and her heart started to race. She stood up from her seat and walked around the table to approach him, heart racing from her amplified emotional state. Dawn’s pheromones were pretty potent.

“Let’s stop wasting time,” she breathed, leaning forward to show off her enhanced chest. “Let’s get this done already.”

Nick swallowed and nodded. His impatient erection throbbed in his pants, screaming the same thing at him.
