Chapter 3 by WitchyWillow WitchyWillow

What's next?

Katrina Jacobs, the Closeted Office Exhibitionist (ENF, CFNF, OON)

Astounded was the only word Katrina could use to describe herself at the moment. When she picked up the notebook, she thought it was just a joke; she never expected it to actually work.

But work it did. The barista’s shirt had faded away in plain view only to spring back into existence when Katrina removed her rule. At first, she thought it might be some trick like an illusion but no one could have planned for what rule she would write down. No, this was real. Impossible but very, very, real.

Katrina’s spun with all the different thoughts of what she could do with this new power. The possibilities were limitless. It was like one of those crazy hypotheticals you find on the Internet landed in her lap. She could change her town, the country, or even the whole world. But what if she messed up? What if she trapped herself in a terrible situation or turned the world into some kind of nightmare? It would be all her fault. The world would be ruined and-

“Easy, girl, take a breath.”, she murmured to herself. She took one big breath and slowly exhaled. It was a practice she was used to at this point, one of the many tools that helped her get her life together in the past. She repeated the process until the fears whispering in her ear receded.

She could go slow and just add a few small rules to start. There was no need to change the world from the beginning or at all for that matter. Katrina started thinking of all the fun things she could use the Rulebook for. Truth be told, she was a little jealous of the barista. She had always been a bit of an exhibitionist but she never really indulged in it as she was too afraid of the potential fallout. That cute redhead got to be more exposed in that moment than most people are in their whole life. With the Rulebook, Katrina could have that for herself and then some. She took up the pencil again and thought about what to write next.

Old Rule (Coffee Stars): Female customers are only allowed to wear underwear while in the shop.

Katrina felt a chill wash over as she looked down and saw she was now sitting in her bra and panties. She looked around and while there were less women in the coffee shop than before, they were all as undressed as she was. Funnily enough, the female barista from earlier was fully clothed along with all her coworkers. Being employees not customers meant the rule didn’t apply to them.

Katrina had not intended for that discrepancy but it seemed only fair. The baristas didn’t deserve to be caught in the crossfire of her supernatural hijinks, and she liked the idea of getting some karmic payback with her own rule embarrassing her. The rule wasn’t fair to the other female customers but she could balance those scales later.

Now, Katrina knew for a fact that rules could affect her. She suspected that from the start, but it was always good to be thorough when working with world-altering powers. She wondered just how far those powers went.

New Rule (Coffee Stars): Customers can float napkins at their table by pointing at them. Katrina stuck her finger out at the napkin next to her drink and….nothing happened.

Not completely world-altering then. Katrina erased the rule with the butt of her eraser as she pondered her next move. She took a sip from her drink and grimaced. Empty. More caffeine would help get the creative juices flowing, but drinks were so expensive these days….not that that mattered anymore.

One rule is all it would take for her to get a free drink, but that felt too easy. Katrina got what some would consider a bad idea but it was too fun for her to ignore. She erased her rule about female customers and wrote one specifically for herself.

New Rule (Coffee Stars): Katrina Jacobs is only allowed to pay for products by relinquishing items of clothing to the store. All clothing will be held until she decides to leave the store upon which every item will be returned to her.

And just to cover her bases she added a second one.

New Rule (Coffee Stars): Katrina Jacobs is exempt from decency laws or rules at Coffee Stars stores.

Katrina scanned her surroundings for the upcoming changes. Clothes appeared on every woman in the store, except for her that is. Katrina flushed, squeezing her legs closer together. It was one thing to be in her underwear in public along with a bunch of other people. It was another thing entirely to be the only one showing the world their most private garments.

Katrina furrowed her brow, wondering why she started off half-naked, till she remembered she had already bought two drinks while at the store. Her clothes were probably behind the counter. She pursed her lips as she considered her empty drink. Was she really going to go through with this?

Of Course She Is
