Week 3 Tracy's Date: After Lunch

Carla stopped before the door she was pretty sure lead into the pub, glancing over at the fuck off big ass window at the end of the hall to double check, before taking a closer look at the doors new ornament. "Since when has a wreath been on here?"

"It wasn't here yesterday." Candy said as she walked up beside the black haired singer. "Looks kinda Christmasy with the berries and pine cones."

"But not the pentacle." Gabriella finished.

Kim nodded, that was not something you normally saw on a wreath, and it wasn't even snowing anymore. "Is that what you call that? Shouldn't the point be down anyways? That's how they always put it on metal albums."

"It's a Yule Wreath. Point up for a pentacle, it's Wiccan not Satanic." What Misty didn't know is why it was on the door into the pub. Waking the musicians after a nice soak in the hot springs they'd spent lunch as a group, then decided to head up here as one as well after hearing Candy's news about a new bounty.

"Huh, well I trust you to know the witchy stuff Misty." The redhead gave the shorter woman a friendly grin. "It's all just spooky stuff to throw on a album cover to me."

Carla scoffed. "We don't even do that shit. A bit of gothic script for the album name and a picture of the band is all we've ever needed." She pushed open the door and whistled. The door wreath wasn't the only decoration.

Walking into the room she looked up at the big fir tree the tables had been moved to make room for that now took up the center of the room. Not decorated like a Christmas tree either. More pinecones like the wreath, but also a bunch of white and yellow roses with a huge golden rose up top. "More Yule decorations." Misty mused. "The tree is particularly odd."

"Why's that?" Candy, who had been buzzing about the tree, sprang back to full size to ask.

"It's a symbol of rebirth and the sun, not things I'd normally associate with Shar of all people."

Kim turned to the green haired woman who was looking about in wonder. "You didn't know about this Evy?"

Evelyn could only shake her head. She knew Shar certainly had her own reasons to be celebrating rebirth though, having recently pulled her lover back from the abyss. She reached out a hand towards the tree and ran her fingers across the vibrant green needles. "It's still alive." She whispered to herself.

"No shit? Well that's certainly something. No presents under it though." Carla had kind of hoped if the big woman was doing weird pagan shit again there'd be gifts at least.

"There might still be." Misty had wandered over to the big fireplace. The huge roaring fire was normal, but the mantle had been covered in a plethora of candles. Some red, but most also white and yellow. "The gift giving of Christmas began as a Yule tradition. Most of it did really."

Kim had stuck close to Misty, as close as she could while staying within ten foot of Carla anyways... She seemed to know the most about this kind of stuff. "That explains while it looks so similar. Makes me want some traditional eggnog."

"There's plenty of rum, maybe there's some nog in the fridge." The couple ran off behind the bar while Misty made her way over to the bounty board where Gabriella was standing. Sure enough below the leash walk, milk bath, and oral sex bounties was the new one. Have a contest for best cheerleader outfit. All the names save theirs and Tracy's were signed up for it.

"I noticed Stacy managed to sign up for the oral sex bounty again." Misty smiled.

"She must have grabbed it last night expecting Tracy to take her today. So are you nervous about this contest? Are we even going along with it? You hardly need the points and it's not like I'm winning." Gabriella laughed self deprecatingly.

Misty turned to the once older woman and took her hands, looking serious. "Don't say that! You are beautiful and could absolutely win. Just because you haven't been saddled with ridiculous breasts doesn't mean you can't win."

Gabriella leaned forward and hugged the other woman. "It's okay dear. We both know Laura appreciates your figure, and I do as well. Where are we even supposed to get outfits anyways?"

"Everyone who is signed up for the contest will be given the opportunity to design her own outfit of course." The two separated and whirled to look up at the tall redhead who now stood behind them.

"And this will be when?" Gabriella asked sternly. "The other bounties cleared after twenty four hours."

Shar waved away the professor's concern. "Group bounties don't fade like the regular ones, as any number of you can sign up. As for the outfits anyone signed up can go to the Events kiosk and design theirs, alone. They will be delivered the day of the contest, which will be decided by a consensus of the participants. Which is so far looking to be on the day of Carla's date. You could have asked Evelyn if you had concerns."

Carla and Kim walked up then, each with a large mug of frothy white liquid. "Seriously? We get to do the contest on our date? That's fuck'en great!" Kim nodded along with her wife, excited both for showing off and the orgy after.

"Only one at a time?" Misty asked.

Shar nodded. "No cheating seeing what each other comes up with dear. Blessed be." And with that she was gone.

Misty shrugged at their departed host and looked back to Gabriella. "It's not like we can lose points." She said and pressed her thumb to the board, which added her name to the list.

"Fair enough." Gabriella added hers as well.

"So how the fuck are we supposed to go one at a bloody time then?" Kim asked the green haired woman, who had her own mug of the potent nog the red head had mixed up.

Evelyn took a deep draught of the frothy brew and blinked at the taste as warmth spread through her chest. "You count as one contestant." She reminded the duo.

"Oh right, I keep forgetting that." Hearing the pub door bang shut Kim looked over and realized the pixie was gone. "Ha! Looks like Candy's getting a jump start on everyone."

"Well it's not like she can have some eggnog." Carla said, thinking of how the blonde was pregnant with twins, and shook her head.

Gabriella rolled her eyes. "You don't have to add rum to it."

"Then what's the point?"

.

"So it seems that this Sally really went with the game part of game show then." Laura quipped.

Tracy nodded, missing the sarcasm. "Yeah, great isn't it?"

Anna shook her head. "No it is not. They all lost their bodies. None of them looks like themselves anymore, we've all gone through some changes but we're at least still us." She'd worked damn hard for her body, to have that all snatched away to be turned into some game character? No fucking thanks.

Tracy frowned at the tall woman. "I suppose that is a valid point. They didn't have any say in what they got and it would suck to end up with something from a game made for 'modern audiences' but they all did okay. Sally's got taste, she's a real gamer. Chun-Li's plenty ripped."

"And Asian, I'd prefer to stay Hispanic thank you very much." She sure as fuck hadn't wanted to be turned green.

Tracy shrugged, she didn't think being Irish/Norwegian was anything special to hang on to. "What if the sisters had been twins?" Stacy interjected. "They'd have lost that, would you want that?"

"Well no, I suppose not. But we're not exactly a perfect match anymore and look they got Peach and Daisy right? That's close enough for sisters. I'm telling you Sally's cool, she'd totally have picked twin characters if they had been. You don't see any of them freaking out over being body swapped so I'm sure she picked people that weren't so stuck on their old looks."

Laura put a hand on her sisters arm, it was obvious their attitude about Sally's season was bothering Tracy. But not everyone saw being 'upgraded' as a good thing like she did. "I'm sure it's fine. As you said they seem to be handling the change well. Though some of the transformations not so much."

"Yeah Sally's def a bit of a prankster, I will say I'm glad we don't have to beat a game to get in our rooms."

"Or be tortured by the furniture." Stacy quipped.

Tracy rolled her eyes. "Okay okay, so Sally's season's not perfect. I'm sure there's tons worse though. Wait until you check out Sage's dumpster fire next."

Somehow Laura didn't think Shar was showing her sister any of the really bad seasons.

"Do. Do you think we could see the one my grandmother was on?" Susan asked hesitantly.

Suddenly looking a bit pale Tracy turned and hugged the extremely busty woman. "I don't think that's going to be on here, I'll have to ask Shar."

"It is not something to be watched lightly." The blue skinned woman suddenly standing by the couch told them. "But may be available soon if you really wish." She told Laura with a serious look on her face.

The redhead was puzzled. "Susan's grandmother was on a season of Harem Hotel?" Anna looked equally puzzled.

"I told Tracy and Stacy about it, I just recently found out about it from Shar. She's buried here, in the rose garden."

"Oh shit!" Laura and Anna both leaned over to hug Susan, and the teal haired woman in her lap. "That must be hard on you."

Susan shrugged. "I never knew her, she disappeared when daddy was just a child. No one remembers her and all her pictures and portraits were wiped clear."

"That's weird. My father's aunt disappeared like that too." Anna said, looking spooked.

Nimue nodded at the tall woman. "Yes, she was taken for the show as well."

"What?! My great aunt was taken for one of these maldita espectáculos de terror?!" Laura was spilled out of Anna's lap as she stood to confront the blue haired woman. "Was she turned into a fucking video game character?!"

"She was not on Sally's show, she was on mine."

"You kidnapped my grandfather's sister?!" Anna towered over the blue skinned woman, who looked up at her calmly with emerald green eyes as the Hispanic woman's fists cracked with the effort of holding herself back.

"I did. And Sharron herself. And it all went horribly wrong. I'll ask her if you can see it for yourself." And she was gone.

Laura was up and hugging Anna, pulling her face gently down to look into her own eyes. "Anna? It's going to be okay. Talk to me baby." She didn't want to even think about what could happen to Anna if she attacked Nimue.

"Sharron, she said. Shar was on her show? As a contestant? What the fuck is going on here?"

Susan shook her head, still cuddling Tracy on her lap. "Shar became a host with the wish from Nimue's show, and she was killed for it. Shar was injured bringing her back."

"She was killed?" Holy fuck, Anna thought, even the hosts weren't safe around here. Maybe didn't even have a say in who was taken, but she still didn't have to like it. Anna rubbed one of Laura's cheeks. "It's okay chika. I won't do anything stupid. Not any more stupid than normal anyways." They both laughed and got back on the couch with the others. "Still it's odd, both of us having family on the same season as Shar."

Tracy looked up at Susan and shrugged, the busty woman nodded. "More than odd. Everyone on that show was related to one of us, Shar is Laura, Tracy, and Stacy's Father's aunt."

"The fuck?!" Stacy was livid. "I'm related to that crazy bitch?!"

Laura was stunned. All of them? What did this mean? "Maybe we do need to see this season, but definitely not tonight. Lets watch something besides harem Hotel and take our minds off of this, okay Tracy?"

"Suits me, I so do not want sexy times derailed over this. How bout more anime? Something lite about a moron and his harem of sexy women?"

Laura rolled her eyes, of course Tracy wanted to watch a harem anime. "That's fine." She'd confront Shar, or Sharron, over this revelation later.

For now just some mindless fun would do.
