Respond in kind, with an open-mouth selfie of your own.

You think to yourself for a moment about how best to respond. You have no idea how any of this is supposed to work, but it’s remotely possible that MalO doesn’t actually know what you look like yet. If that’s indeed the case, then the best place to start would be with a selfie of your own. But if so… What sort of expression should you go for?

If this is your only chance to make the right first impression on your new… That is to say, you’d really like MalO’s first impression of you to be a good one.

After a few seconds of deliberation, you decide- for whatever reason- that the safest bet might be to do your best to mimic MalO’s own selfie. You don’t exactly have any impressive fangs of your own to show off, but hopefully he’ll be able to see the humour in it. Maybe he’ll find it cute that you decided to copy him…

After taking another look to make sure there’s nobody else around to see, you open the camera app on your phone, and switch to face-cam. The curiously-exciting image of MalO’s undeniably threatening maw is still burned into your mind, so you do your best to find the pose most similar to that.

Downward angle… Mouth, open… Tongue peeking out- just a little… And with just a touch of that half-lidded, come-hither gaze.

Does that look cute? You're not sure, but you do hope so… Come to think of it, this seems a bit racy when you're doing it… It’s like you’re trying to send a message, along the lines of “hello mister- don’t you want to find out what I can fit in here? I hope we’re a good fit for eachother, MalO…”

… Damn it. You’re over-thinking this, you’re sure of it… And there’s that tension again…

You need to get a move on. You can’t just stand here in the street, gawping at your phone forever. Someone will walk by sooner or later. You take the snap, open MalO’s app, and send it, without really checking how it turned out. That’s it- you’re done. No point worrying about it now.

You do open up the photo you just sent though, within the MalO app messenger. Might as well see how you look… You really do kind of hope MalO will think you’re cute… Hmm… Yeah, you have a feeling MalO will be able to tell how nervous you are at the moment, not that it’s the end of the world or anything… It's a little cute, you guess.

Although you hadn’t realised how, uh… Bothered you’d gotten yourself by the time you took this. You’re blushing in this photo- and noticeably so.

… And with your mouth hanging open like that… Invitingly, just like those eyes… Was this the kind of ‘good first impression’ you were going for?

You don’t have long to think about that, before you notice something's changed in the MalO app. Not a new photo- not yet, anyway- but… Oh? Oh!

Oh man, this app is cute! It seems there’s a suite of emojis you can use with the messenger, most of which are cartoonish representations of MalO (which is to say, they resemble a black dog’s head, except with an exposed skull where the face would be), with different emotional expressions.

And, it would seem, these can be used to ‘react’ to messages or pictures sent by either party- and MalO has done just this, for your selfie! Is that how MalO communicates?

His response seems to have been… Positive? Yes... Yes! He’s ‘reacted’ with a fluffy black heart, with doggy ears and a tail- just like the one on the app’s icon!

All of a sudden, you find that those feelings of nervousness- not to mention the lingering pangs of, well, mortal terror- are melting away, replaced by something warm and giddy! While you’re still reeling, his heart ‘react’ is then followed by a second, different emoji- and then… And then a third… Oh boy…

That second ‘react’ was one of the emojis of MalO’s face. In this particular one, he’s licking his chops suggestively, with that thick, versatile tongue of his… You’re pretty sure you understand the implication, and you have to admit, it’s giving you a much-needed boost to your self-esteem.

As for the third one, well… Um… Hehe… Yeah, there’s that blush again… Aren’t you the lucky one? You’re well and truly flattered... You’re guessing this means the ‘eggplant’ emoji is obsolete as of MalO 2.0.0, then?

That would be your assumption, based on the emoji he’s picked for you; of a sizeable, onyx-black, knotted cock- standing to attention above a fuzzy black ball-sack.

You're over the moon- it seems MalO has indeed taken a liking to you, to say the very least… A liking to you, and your big mouth, you’re guessing…

As you stand there, blushing and beaming like a love-struck teenager, your phone buzzes in your hand once more.
