Eric night

(Eric POV)

Eric appeared in the Master bedroom next to Leo. He'd had a great day. He'd spent most of the day testing his wings on the moon. He hadn't noticed any major difference from being on the island. So, assuming the island wasn't on the moon. The wings weren't affected by gravity. This was fascinating. Magic made it possible to ignore a fundamental ****. Could she do the same for others?

The forces of weak and strong interactions would be difficult to study in this show, but he already had some ideas for electromagnetism.

He refocused to observe the room in which he had just appeared. It looked very similar to the red room he'd slept in earlier, the major difference apart from the color being the much larger size of the room.

Leo looked as if he hadn't quite recovered from our discussion. But he was going to have to make an effort, because if he didn't pull himself together, we were all in for a very bad time.

On the other hand, I also had to think of myself and ensure my own safety. It's going to be very difficult for me to win VPs given the theme of this show. I might even lose some easily. Eric thought, looking at Leo who was walking towards what appeared to be our dinner table.

After Daphne managed to earn VPs and it's unlikely, they did anything sexual together so it must be possible to earn some VPs without too much effort.

Eric then began to consider all the possibilities before concluding. Yes, this could do it, he thought.

"Looks like we're having lamb curry tonight." Said Leo.

"Is that really the subject you want to talk about right now?" Eric asked.

Leo looked at Eric awkwardly. He clearly didn't want to discuss the subject yet. Yet he'd find it hard to avoid. Eric decided to try and approach the problem from a new angle.

"I suggest we look at each person's VP count." Says Eric

"And how can we do that?" Says Leo

Eric sighed. Leo had completely forgotten about the tablet Nola had given him this morning. Eric took his own tablet and displayed the VP scores.

1st Daphne 2 VP

2nd Eric 0 VP

2nd Hanna 0 VP

2nd Abigail 0 VP

2nd Blanche 0 VP

6th Jessica -1 VP

"You can access it via your own tablet." Said Eric

Leo then took out his tablet before noticing his purchase options.

"It looks like you too can spend BP to buy transformations. What do you have in stock?" Eric asked, curious to know what Nola had in store for his big brother.

Leo began to scroll through the options. They were classified according to the participants they affected. Some could even affect the Master.

"What's in stock about me?" asked Eric. Maybe it was possible to get Leo to buy transformations for him.

Leo hesitated, then finally answered.

"There's a transformation called Belt of Abstinence" said Leo, a little embarrassed.

"Next," said Eric, feeling a little foolish for not having anticipated this transformation.

"The next one is called 'True Princess'" said Leo.

Eric hesitated, but he doubted it would be very useful.

"Next"

"You have a transformation called 'maiden source'. I think that's probably a reference to Ranma ½ " said Leo.

"Indeed, I expected that. For the moment it doesn't seem necessary for me to become a girl yet, even if it is temporary." Said Eric.

"You don't have to do this no matter what," says Leo.

"Leo, I thought I'd made it clear we're going to have to make choices and clearly I'd rather sacrifice my manhood than my brain." said Eric.

Leo didn't reply. He knew Eric was right, but he couldn't admit it.

"Take it another way. What's more important to you? What are you trying to protect?" Eric asked.

Leo seemed to consider his options. Eric didn't know what Leo would decide. Daphne was an obvious answer, but it lacked precision. What did he like about Daphne? her looks? her intelligence? her kindness? or something else entirely?

Eric decided to enjoy the food while Leo was lost in thought. The curry was excellent, not as good as their mother's, but very good. Anyway, a mother's cooking is unsurpassable, except perhaps a wife's cooking. After all, he was hardly in a position to be thinking about that, as he was barely 19.

"I don't know," he said. I'd like nothing to change, but I know that's impossible." Leo said.

Eric sighed. This was going to be a long one.

"Take the problem another way. You're a fit young man. You must have dreamed of love affairs, and knowing your taste in manga, you must have dreamed of a harem," said Eric.

"How do you know?" says Leo.

"Please Leo you can do whatever you want, turn me into a woman give me an abstinence belt but above all don't insult my intelligence. It's so obvious that everyone who knows you should know. But to come back to what I was saying, you've already thought about this kind of thing, what's been preserved, what doesn't bother you that it's changed?" Says Eric.

"I'm not sure what you're getting at" says Leo.

"Let's take a few examples. Would you rather have a young Abigail in your harem or a woman over 50 in your harem" says Eric.

"I..." Said Leo

"Another question, do you find Jessica more or less sexy with her big breasts?" asked Eric

"But ..., " Said Leo

"Don't you think white cat ears are cute?" Said Eric.

"It's okay, stop. I get it." Says Leo.

"Allow me to doubt it. But it's good enough if you think about it. Well, I'll leave you to it and take a shower. My wings are full of dust." Eric said, getting up and leaving Leo to his thoughts.

He entered the bathroom, which could only be described as immense. He undressed and stepped into the shower. Bathing was an option to be avoided with his new feathered limbs.

The warm water felt good. He cleaned himself up, wondering if Leo had finally come up with an answer. He'd test it soon. He stepped out of the shower and grabbed his towel.

He returned to the bedroom to find Leo sitting on the bed.

"So, Eric ... what the hell?" Leo said.

Seen naked by the Master 4 x 2 = 8 VPs for Eric.

"So that wasn't what Daphne did to earn her VPs. Interesting."

"Can you cover yourself with a towel please?" Said Leo

"Oh, it's okay it's not like it's the first time you've seen me naked." Eric replied

"It's true, but that doesn't mean it's a view I like" says Leo.

-1 VP for Displeasing the Master by showing him an uncomfortable view.

"So, you can both gain and lose VPs with the same action. It's fascinating." Eric said before covering himself with his towel.

"But why did you do that?" Leo asked.

"I told you we're going to have to earn VPs, and I guessed that showing myself naked would earn me a few." Said Eric.

Leo didn't answer and chose to try and fall asleep.
