Working Everyday

"Rosey, we have to clean the city stables today and would love some help." Maggie, the head maid, said. It was more of a statement then a request for assistance, and Nermeria found herself taking a second to refuse.

"Oh, well, I'm a bit busy...." Nermeria began to reply, cut off by Jermia, the shortest of the three.

"Just for a few hours Miss Rosey! Please!" She pleaded, hitting a cord with Nermeria, who found herself lose every ounce of resistance.

"Alright, but just for a bit. I'll go change." Nermeria found herself begin walking upstairs and stopped by the sound of Maggie's voice, who offered her a different uniform, citing the stables were too dirty to be wearing the usual affair. Nodding, Nermeria took it, and the second her hands touched it, the uniform popped onto her, no doubt from the 'helpful' magic of her current clothes.

She checked her GUI.

Reputation Check - Choice Locked! Due to reputation acquired titled 'Weak-Willed', you were unable to refuse Jermia's request for assistance.

Conditional Armor Change!:

Due to Perks/Buffs: Always Erect, Chesty & Ass-tastic!, Cleaners Uniform upgraded to Exposing Cleaners Uniform!

New Description!:

This uniform is designed for only the most professional of cleaners. Without a doubt, you'll be safe from all the muck and mess of the job. Of course, that would be if you hadn't modified it. With a chest and ass like yours, it looks more like you're worried about making sure the master/mistress of the home is satisfied with you.

Nermeria rolled her eyes, and felt like she was constantly rolling them as she walked with the gaggle of girls to the city stables. It gave her time to think and wonder about her plans for the rest of the day, even as she put up with the stupid new uniform. It was, much like the wench uniform, a small outfit which just barely covered up her nipple piercings. It's stockings and maid theme heels did not help matters, nor did the fluttering skirt which exposed her stocking covered ass. Whoever designed these stupid uniforms was going to pa.....

"Rosey, we're here!" Maggie said, waving a hand in front of her face. Right. Stables. Cleaning those.

The job was easy enough, considering everything. After cleaning a few of the areas (and being bumped by players much like she'd done to countless NPC's), Nermeria felt a pat on her ass, which made her turn around.

"Hey, Jermia needs help cleaning out the stable area. Head over there." Maggie said, smiling and getting a nod from Nermeria.

That section of the job was more then just hard: it was miserable work. In the combined sludge of the stables, Nermeria found it hard to think of her plans, especially as the somewhat annoying Jermia kept babbling about local gossip. How very.....annoying. As they were cleaning one of the stalls, a player came back with their horse, and quickly demounted it, throwing three copper at Nermeria and ordering her to clean and brush her horse.

Nearly standing up and shouting at him, Nermeria kept her cool head, and ignored the edict, merely pocketing the copper. She was no stablehand.

After probably deeply cleaning around 5 or 6 stables, Nermeria felt herself soaked in sweat, muck, and whatever else she'd accumulated. Vowing that this would be the last stall which she'd clean, Nermeria worked around the horse which was present in the stall, clad in gold armor and looking like it deserved a knight on it. Resting for a second, Nermeria put her hand against the armor, and felt a ding from her GUI.

Oh, not good.

Fuck. Fuck. Shit! Nermeria felt herself screaming. She didn't want to read on for the descriptions, not eager to learn more. She had to get out of here. Away from these jobs. Far away. Jermia, looking happy as she worked, did not seem to notice nor care about whatever was happening to Nermeria, especially as the girl struggled to walk forward. Holy fuck.

Her heels were thick metal now, and connected with a metal rod between them. She could barely walked, let alone run away and get the hell out of the this place! Still, she had to get out. What if she touched another piece of equipment on accident? How worse could the set get?

Not wanting to find out, Nermeria eagerly minced her way from the stall, falling straight onto her face a few times. As she fell forward for the 4th time, Jermia came over to her, bringing her back to a new stall, talking about how she must've been confused.

A player came into the stall. Nermeria froze, worried they might say something to her. As they dismounted their horse, a book dropped from their belt. Nermeria did not go for it. Not until her entire body was rocked with shock after shock, that is. It was telling her to pick it up. No, not telling. Making her. With shaking hands, Nermeria, felt her lean at the hip, grab the bag, and waltz over to the player. She sighed as he distantly thanked her, shook her hand, and left.

Until her GUI dinged once more.
