Ashton chooses Seth.

Ashton thinks long, but not very hard.

“Seth, take another effect.”

“WHA…? WHY ME? I JUST DID MY TURN.”

“Hahahahaha” Ashton doesn’t actually answer the question, but just starts laughing from Seth’s surprised reaction. The card Ashton held did also change. The two black spots on the back became filled. Seth’s game piece appeared in one spot and the color blue appeared in the other spot.

Jersey and Yonah let out a sigh of relief that they weren’t picked. With their anxiety washing away, Jersey had a question.

“What happens now?”

“Seth has to pick up that card.” Thomas points to the top of the deck and everyone sees that another card has been put into play. A blue one that was meant for Seth.

Ashton eventually stifles her laughter and asks Thomas, “What do I do with this?” holding up the brown card to her.

“I think you keep it, just like any other card.”

“Cool.”

Ashton tucks the brown card with her faded yellow card.

Seth seems quite angry with the decision, but isn’t actually holding a grudge. She knows it's a game and Ashton is being Ashton. She reaches down and picks up another blue card.

–

“Another card of blue,

A collection you’ve accrued.

Let’s get you out of this funk,

With a new outfit from cyberpunk.”

–

“OOOOO, I love Cyberpunk.”

“Jersey, you aren’t helping.” Seth quickly utters at Jersey.

“Sorry, but I’ve played cyberpunk if that helps.”

“Does it? I don’t know if this card is referring to the actual game or the genre.”

“The genre makes more sense in my opinion. Copyrights, ya know.”

“To be honest, I don’t care at this point. ‘I Continue’.”

The card’s color fades as Seth tucks it with her other cards.

“Oh, did we have to look away or…?” Before Thomas could finish her sentence, a bright neon light envelops Seth. Looking at her actually is blinding now. Everyone closes their eyes. The sounds of electricity zapping and arcing occur. After a few moments of what sounds like Seth getting electrocuted, the light quickly dissipates.

Seth’s outfit has received some modifications. She was still in a bodysuit, but the material seems to have changed to something that looks like carbon fiber fabric, but doesn’t like anything that currently exists. With sharp lines and patterns along her bodysuit, Seth’s bodysuit also tightened on her. The bodysuit now cupped her breasts and her waist much closer than her original bodysuit. The sides of her bodysuit at the waist was a different stretchier material than the carbon fiber weave. Seth’s jacket and sneakers did not escape this change unscathed this time however. Her sneakers disappeared to reveal shiny metal white heels. She lowered her leg and everyone heard the metallic clack her heel made on the hardwood floor. Her jacket also transfigured into a sleek puffier design that was made out of an unknown futuristic material. The biggest change that Seth noticed was the bodysuit’s collar now had small metal pieces along her neck and upper shoulders. It was quite snug along her neck, allowing for zero space between her skin and the collar. Metal bits shifted and moved when she turned her head around, still allowing full movability.

“WHOA!”

“Ima be honest, thats sick as fuck.”

“Easy for you to say.” Seth said in an uncomfortable tone.

While her previous bodysuit was considered snug, this one she would now consider tight. Every time she moved, she felt the futuristic material stretch with her, preventing it from tugging elsewhere. It was almost like a second skin with how it moved. While thin, Seth did not feel cold even though there was barely any material separating her skin from the air.

She stood up to see every nook and cranny of the enhanced and cybernetic outfit. She looked down to see how the fabric gripped her legs and thighs. She tried to see the back of her suit, but couldn’t turn her head enough.

“I can’t…see…hold on.” Seth said as she left the table.

She went over to the side room that Thomas hid in and used the mirror in there. She was surprised with how revealing it actually was. Away from the others and in front of the mirror, she set one leg on a chair and pushed her hips back. Looking in the mirror, Seth was blushed at the sight of her butt. The bodysuit was tight, but didn’t compress her cheeks, which allowed for an ample view of her ass. Seth felt a bit naughty in this pose, and once content with what she saw, she returned to the other room.

Sitting back down, Seth attempted to play off her change like it was nothing. While everyone was fascinated with Seth’s new outfit, she did not like the new attention.

“Alright, show’s over. Thomas, go.”
