More bad news

You find a Family bathroom in one of the slightly-creepy shortcut hallways and duck inside for some privacy. Might as well actually use the bathroom while you're here, but you bring your phone on the toilet with you.

Hannah Starshine level up! 2 points received. 5XP

Status updated. Effects available after the subject has rested.

Poison registered. 8 points received

Oh right. Well, that confirms you touched Hannah long enough to level up her voyeurism. Hopefully you unlocked something that can curb her obsession with you.

Now that you know what a subject registration is worth, you can also deduce your totals without even scrolling down (59xp, 48 points) and simply head straight for the subject tabs, starting with your sister’s.

Level 5 - ???

You feel a pang of guilt as you remember just how aggressive you were with her. You didn’t mean to tear into her that hard, you just lost yourself in the moment. It’s not like You haven’t ever checked Her out before.

Oh well. No amount of kicking yourself is going to undo the level-up. You tap for more details, fingers crossed for something you can use to diffuse the situation.

Level 1 details

Passive:

Subject will unabashedly leer at the User and other subjects, and her attraction to the User deepens if she sees the User in risque clothing or states of undress

Active - Peeping Tina:

Condition(s): Subject is within 100 meters of the User, and does not have current line of sight on it.

Effect(s): Subject will attempt to stare at the User without being seen doing so, until either 5 minutes pass or the User acknowledges her presence, whichever comes first.

Cooldown: 30 minutes

Oh no. ‘Unabashedly leering at you’ is the exact opposite of what you wanted. This definitely makes the problem worse. You were hoping this app would have a solution for you, but it looks like updates are gonna be slower until you hit the next milestone at 80xp. Fine, you’ll just have to come up with a solution to this yourself. You check out what info you have on Poison while you brainstorm.

Wow, a few things to unpack here. First of all, you didn't know the purpose of the 'Role' field was to call you out. Demigirl isn't on your list of preferred subject genders, so either setting that preference doesn't actually do anything, or the KDK's gender detection system is sophisticated enough to understand that demigirls are included under the significant overlap between ‘women’ and ‘lesbians.’

You haven't heard of an accomplice kink before. You spend several minutes fruitlessly trying to look up the term, until you realize you’ve spent entirely too long in a bathroom. You probably aren’t going to find it with the meager resources your phone provides.

Hopelessness encroaches as you take in the combination of bad news on Hannah's page and the absolute inscrutability of Poison’s. You decide to focus on what you can actually do. You don’t have any new ideas on the Hannah front so you keep that aside for now. One thing you can do is try to figure out what “Kinksense” even does. It was certainly no help with Poison.

Figuring people-watching is a good place to start, you circle back to the busking mime. At least they expect someone to stare at them. You feel a little bad using a complete stranger to test for kink, so you make sure to drop a few quarters into the upturned hat on the floor. The mime makes an appreciative gesture. You carefully study their performance. It’s pretty good as far as mimes go, but something about their interpretive dance makes you think they’d rather be in a bathroom urinal. Wait, that made no sense. That had to be a Kinksense thought! Thank the universe for granting this mime a love of watersports. If it were a subtler kink, you might not have noticed.

Your new superpower speaks in the same voice as the rest of your thoughts, making it difficult to identify. Seems like the best way to practice will be to try it out on as many people as possible. You spend the next few hours until Hannah’s shift ends trying to find a way to separate your newfound intuition from random mental noise.
