But First! Another Test

I reminded myself to note down any new Normalities that I might have made throughout the day as I walked home. Believing that I got all of them I put away my phone and just enjoyed the walk through the Tokyo streets.

I was in such a good mood right now, a far cry from the moodiness I was feeling this time yesterday. Finding these earrings was probably the best thing to ever happen to me.

For the rest of the way home I decided to refrain from any more fun. I was a little bit tired and needed to rest. It wasn’t like cumming twice was difficult for me, though. I’ve had some lonely sessions that lasted for more than that, as sad as that is to admit. No, it was the actual pumping of the hips with that girl in the shower, probably coupled with the mental stimulation of the entire day that led me to feeling like I needed a nap.

Once I got home and received my sister’s kiss on the cheek, I went straight to my room to update my Normality journal and change out of my uniform and back into something casual. After that I spent some time in my room doing light exercise. I figured that, even if I was tired, I really did need the boost in stamina if I was going to be having sex a lot of the time, with a lot of people. I needed to be able to perform at Olympic levels.

While I was doing some sit-ups I once again found myself thinking about the potential of fucking my sister and mother. The whole taboo of it was concerning, but they were so damn hot. There was no way I couldn’t admit to that at least.

And it wasn’t like I really needed to resort to doing them since I could have anyone now. These earrings would ensure that I would never go without pussy again. I could literally build myself a harem!

But they were so damn hot!

Okay Naoki, calm down. You can’t exercise with a boner. So just calm down.

I took a breath and tried to leave off thoughts of my female family members for another time. I breathed in and out as I pulled myself up with my abs.

Once calm, another thought crossed my mind. These earrings… Was the power to make things normal, and the power to be seen as normal, separate? Did one earring do one thing while the other did another? Or were both powers residing in both pieces of metal? Did they only work if I wore the both of them, or could I wear just one?

Was there a way to test them?

I thought about it some more as I finished up my sit-ups. I did some cool down stretches and thought about taking a bath. Unless of course Airi wanted one first. Ah, but we probably had to wait for mom to come home so that the water wasn’t cold for her.

Then it hit me.

Okay, what if I took off one of these earrings and tried to make a Normality? And if it worked or didn’t work, I switched earrings and checked if it worked or didn’t work with the other one. If I’m right and if they had one power each then I’ll mark the earring somehow. Like with tape or something.

And a great way to test it was with the bath.

I removed the earring in my right earlobe.

“It is normal for my sister to offer sharing the bath with me when she goes to have one.” I declared.

Now all I had to do was wait for mom to come home, wait for someone to draw a bath and get confirmation.

Or I could find a better way without waiting for mom… Still a bath with my sister did sound nice. And of course, I didn’t necessarily have to have one with her. I worded it so that she would offer. I could always say no.

I took the earring I had taken off and put it in the top draw of my desk for safekeeping. Then I headed down to the bathroom for a quick wipe down.

Was there another way to test it, I wondered as I put the towel down and left the bathroom. I walked into the lounge to see what Airi was up to. Standing in the doorway I could see her on the couch watching T.V and texting on her phone. She was in a different pair of shorts and t-shirt from yesterday. Theses ones were light blue and white respectively. And she still showed a great deal of leg. Thank you Airi.

Let’s see…

What can I make her do? I looked around the room trying to find inspiration. But nothing really stood out to me. Looking back over to Airi and seeing her with her phone, I remembered the Normality I made about girls sending me sexy pictures of themselves if they had my number.

That’s it.

“It’s normal for my sister- and mother- to occasionally send me sexy pictures of themselves.” I said under my breath.

I wasn’t too sure if it worked since this may or may not be the right earring for the job. Maybe I should make a more immediate Normality.

“It’s normal for Airi to take this moment as an opportunity to send me a sexy picture of herself on the couch.” I said, also under my breath.

I watched for any indication from her that it might have worked. And sure enough I could see her posing while lying on the couch, angling the phone at herself.

Yes! So, either this earring was the one that could make Normalities, or they both did and I needed to test the other one to make sure.

I saw the camera flash and heard the shutter sound from Airi’s phone and knew that any moment she was going to send it to me. I moved away from my hiding spot and headed back upstairs to avoid having her hear my phone go off. I wasn’t sure if this earring would lend me that aura of normalcy that I enjoyed using today.

Once I reached the top of the stairs my phone pinged in my pocket. I hurriedly brought it out to receive my spoils. Sure enough it was from Airi. Once I opened up the message I saw it.

There she was staring up at the camera as she used a finger to pull on her top to reveal a great deal of cleavage. And I don’t think she was wearing a bra this time either.

Fuck.

I might actually end up having sex with her at this rate. Did I really mind though?

Fuck.

I put my phone away and dashed back to my room to switch the earrings. I went straight to the draw and removed the one I had on while putting the other one back on my other ear.

Okay, let’s see. “It’s normal for my sister to take this opportunity to send me another picture.”

And now I waited.

And waited.

I waited for a full minute and nothing happened.

With the other earring in hand I went back downstairs to check on Airi. And just as I suspected, she was still texting while on the couch with the T.V running in the background.

I checked my phone and saw no more messages from her.

“It’s normal for my sister to do five jumping-jacks right now.” I said.

And nothing.

Okay. That decides it then. The earrings each did their own thing.

Now how to mark them so I didn’t have to remember which one did what?

---

A few minutes later I managed to find a permanent marker and used it to colour on the earring that only gave me the presence of normalcy before putting it back in my ear.

Now that I knew that the left earring could help me make Normalities I resolved to always keep that one in. But now I needed to know if it could also produce that presence of normalcy or if that was exclusive to the other earring.

But how to test that…?

I would have to do something that would be absurd for me to do. Something that I normally wouldn’t do. Something so out of character for me.

…something like groping my sister. Like yesterday.

Ah, but wait! I already made a Normality about that, didn’t I? The one where I could do any perverted action and no one would be bothered by it.

Okay, back to square one. It would have to be something unrelated to the subject of perversion then. But what?

Something out of character… Something…

I tried to come up with something as I paced my room. I still had some time before mom came home and I didn’t really have to do homework now did I?

Okay, what if I did something silly? Something that would likely get Airi to raise an eyebrow at her brother’s antics. And then I’ll immediately make a Normality to avoid being embarrassed too much.

I could dance in front of the T.V. Or try my best English in front of her and end up butchering the language. Or I could randomly do jumping-jacks in the lounge.

Ugh… Just thinking about doing any of that stuff was embarrassing.

But if I wanted to know how to best use these earrings then I had to put my short-lived shame on the line. It’s not like I’ll have to endure hours of my sister laughing at me if I have these things.

So, I’ll just swallow what little pride I have and… dance… I guess?

Once she questions my sanity I could just say it’s normal for me to dance in front of the T.V if I wanted to. That should work. Hopefully.

I don’t want to get laughed at.

Whatever! It’s fine. It’ll be fine.

I took a big breath and removed the Normalcy earring once again before walking out of my room and down the stairs. I could still hear the T.V running as I got to the lounge door to peek inside. She was still there on the couch stretched out over two seats of it. Her back was to me.

I breathed again and walked in and wound my way past the couch. She looked up as I passed her but before she could say anything I had gotten to the T.V and broke out into the Shuffle.

It was the only dance move that came to mind.

“…Uh…um… Nii-chan?” Airi asked hesitantly.

I glanced in her direction to see her face in confusion, blinking owlishly at me. “Yeah?” I said as nonchalantly as possible.

“…” She stared some more.

“What’s up?”

“Are you… okay?” She asked doubtfully.

“Never been better.”

“Um…”

A moment passed with her just staring and trying to figure out why her brother had suddenly lost his mind. But her next question wasn’t really about me.

“Well, you’re kind of blocking the T.V…” Was all she said.

Oh, I see how it is. Her entertainment was more important than my apparent insanity. All right fine. It was time to stop this nonsense anyway.

“Didn’t you know that it’s normal for me to dance in front of the T.V if I wanted to?” I asked, as if it were a sane thing to ask.

I really wanted to laugh hysterically. And find a hole to hide in.

“Oh, yeah! That’s right. Why did I forget that?” Understanding dawned on her face as she said that. As if it made all the sense in the world.

I couldn’t help it and just laughed.

“H-hey! Don’t laugh just because I forgot something. That was an honest mistake.” She said indignantly.

“Sorry, sorry. My bad.” I conceded, even though I was still grinning madly.

I had stopped dancing now and moved towards the kitchen. I really needed a drink.

“I’m gunna get a drink from the kitchen. Did you want anything?” I asked as I passed her.

“There’s a bottle of green tea in the fridge. Could you bring that?”

“Sure.”

While in the kitchen I poured myself some orange juice and thought about Airi’s reaction. The confusion, I expected. When I made the Normality she immediately accepted it, and I expected that too. But when she got mad at me for laughing, that made me think of how she would have reacted if I had the other earring in. She wouldn’t have gotten mad. She would have been rather passive about the whole thing.

Big duh. I already knew that the earring of Normalcy would have that effect but at least I confirmed that the Normalcy only came from the right earring and not both.

The whole experiment also got me to realise something.

With both earrings on, I would never have a proper conversation. I would have no arguments. No one would laugh at my jokes. I’d barely even register on people’s radars.

In short, it’d be boring.

Of course, I could have fun with Normalcy at certain times like when I just wanted to do my own thing without having to talk things out with a girl. Like what I did with the Swimming club today.

But other times I might actually want to make an emotional connection. As hypocritical as it sounded coming from me.

The Normalcy earring would hamper that. So, I would have to keep that one in my pocket for the most part. Or in a container of sorts, so I didn’t lose it.

Oh well. Think about that later Naoki.

I put the orange juice back in the fridge and took Airi’s green tea out. I picked up my glass of juice and walked back into the lounge.

“Here.” I held out her tea.

“Thank you.” She said before taking it from me.

I stood there next to her and sipped from my orange juice as she undid the cap and drank from her tea. The sight of her putting the bottle to her lips was slightly suggestive. Especially from this angle as I could see down a little bit of her t-shirt.

I wondered what her reaction would be if I touched her chest right now. Even after making that Normality about everyone being okay with me doing that. I didn’t have the Normalcy earring on at the moment. Maybe she’ll have some kind of reaction, even if it’s not out of anger.

Thinking that, I put my orange juice down on the coffee table in front of the couch. I waited for her to screw the cap back onto her drink before I reached down and gently grabbed her left boob.

“Mn.” Came the sound of a slightly stunned girl. But other than that, nothing else happened. She did briefly look up at me, acknowledging that I was in fact the one touching her, before she went back to texting. It was almost the same as when I had both earrin—

“You know, if you really wanted to touch me, you could wait until we had a bath. I imagine it’d be easier that way.” Airi said nonchalantly. As if she had to deal with this sort of thing every day.

All I could think of was: Yes! So that did work! She reacted! She reacted! And she didn’t rip my head off!

I couldn’t deny the wash of accomplishment that spread all over me after being able to touch boobs without the Normalcy earring.

With these earrings, I could reshape my life to the point where I could do all these amazing things even without having to wear them all the time. Man, this really is some kind of cheat mode.

But I was okay with that.

“Hmm, that is tempting.” I replied to Airi. “But I’ll pass for tonight.” I really wouldn’t be able to hold myself back in that situation.

“Oh… Okay.” Airi said, her face falling a little. I noticed that and wondered if perhaps she was looking forward to sharing the bath with me.

“Maybe some other night, okay?” I told her with a warm smile.

“Nn,” She nodded at me, a little more cheerful this time around.

I let go of her boob and picked up my orange juice again. I left the room with it and headed back to my bedroom.

I had to update my journal and phone again. Plus, I had to upload all the photos I had taken today to my laptop. While I enjoyed them, of course.

---

Sometime later, I heard mom come back from work. I could hear her walk up the stairs after saying hello to Airi. Then she went into her room. No doubt to change.

I was still in the middle of uploading some images into my super-secret folder of dreams when my phone received a message. I had to wait until this batch of images finished uploading before I dared check it. I’ve never moved stuff from my phone to my laptop before. Never had a need to.

Another message came through a moment later. And the upload was three quarters of the way finished. Just a little bit longer.

I had a sneaky suspicion about what those messages could be. Or, rather, a sneaky hope.

And another message arrived just as the upload bar reached its completion.

Unhooking the phone I wondered why there would be three messages since I only got two girls contact info today. Maybe they wanted to send more than one at a time?

I checked my phone and stared for a moment. There were three messages alright. One from that Director lady and one from Sumire-chan. The other one made me remember the exact wording I gave for my sister to send her picture.

The third message was from mom. And she was in her room right now. Changing.

But first, I’ll check the first message from Minami-san. I tapped her unopened message and grinned like a maniac.

She was standing in what was presumably her bedroom taking a selfie of herself from head to toe. What she had on looked like what could have been on underneath her suit that entire day. And she looked damn sexy in them, a lacey grey bra and panties. The serious face was both funny, given the type of picture it was and that it was coming from a director of a school, and arousing, for the very same reason.

Next, I brought up Sumire-chan’s picture and was not disappointed.

She was standing in front of a full body length mirror with her camera pointed at it so she could get her whole body in the frame. She was wearing a set of racy blue underwear and had her hips flaring to one side in a very sexy pose. Her hair was down and over one shoulder with an expression that was intent, yet innocent.

Hmmm-hm-hm-hmm! Damn! Where did this girl even get underwear like that? She really didn’t seem like the type. But still, thank you Sumire-chan.

Next. Mom’s picture.

I tapped on her message and almost lost it.

Ohohoho fuck.

She sat there at the edge of her bed with another full-length mirror facing her. She wore black lace with a garter belt holding up black stockings. Her stockinged legs were on full display for me, along with the size of those tits! Her hair was also over one shoulder as she leaned towards the mirror with an expression so erotic that I contemplated barging into her room to take her there and then. To hell with taboo.

But I was more level-headed than that. Aggravatingly so. My body just screamed: FUCK HER! While my mind said: Patience, mini-me. Patience.

With a sigh, I brought out a box of tissues and studied over the pictures I acquired that day. Until dinner came around, then I ate with the family. All the while eyeing my mom even though she was back in casual clothes. Casual could be sexy too.

After dinner, I found the energy to “study” again before taking a bath alone. Returning to my room I finally allowed the day’s fatigue to take me to sleep.
