Sam and Victoria

Prologue

“Hey Sam?”

“Yes, Victoria?”

“There’s a project I was thinking about doing, and I was wondering if you’d help me. Only condition is that you can’t ask what it is before you agree to it.”

“Nnnnope!”

“I’ll show you my boobs.”

“Nnnn...well...hm...”

“It doesn’t involve you getting naked.”

“Will I have to interact with people besides you in any way?”

“Nope. No photos, no cross dressing, no embarrassing you in any way. Also no required sexual activities whatsoever.”

“...The word ‘required’ in that sentence gives me pause, but...hm...that does kind of cover any scheme I would expect you to cook up.”

“Scheme? Me? Why I’m just a sweet innocent Princess of Diamonds. I just love reading and studying and education, all that crap. So whaddaya say, Sammy boy? Can we shake on it?”

“...What the heck. All right. Deal.”

“Yes!”

“Now what’s the project?”

“Oh, we’re going to read a 70+ chapter erotic novel and review it together.”

“What?!”

“Come on, solar boy. Afraid you’ll like it?”

“No, I just...that’s a lot.”

“We’re not under any time limit. And as soon as we’re done, I’ll pay off my end of the deal.”

“I have to wait until we’re done? Victoria, that could take weeks!”

“Then let’s get started.”

“...fine. Okay. Jeez. What’s this novel anyway?”

“Cursed Punishment: Hard Candy Route by Gambio.”

“Wow. I don’t even know where to start with that one.”

“Chapter one.”

“...ha ha. You’re hilarious.”

“And you’re hot. So let’s get started.”

Part 1: chapters 1-15

READING MUSIC: BGM

“Dang, this story is huge. Vic, you really think we can finish this whole thing?”

“It’s only been a day and we’ve knocked out about a fifth of it. I think we can do it. Let’s take a break and review this part, doing it in pieces is the best move.”

“So the story is about Marcie, a nerd girl who ends up gaining power over her former bully, Gina. Gina has to do everything Marcie says because of a supernatural curse.”

“Right. So far, Marcie is using it to infiltrate Gina’s circle of friends, and gained an ally, Susan, and a ****, Cutie.”

“Marcie reminds me of you in a lot of ways, Vic. Bookworm, sadistic tendencies-“

“I do NOT have sadistic tendencies.”

“Really?”

“My interests are not so base, Mr. Winters. Don’t lump me in with some kind of dominatrix stereotype.”

“Huh. Do me a favor, imagine me, locked into a machine that keeps me on my hands and knees, with a stack of weights on my back. Every time I try to relax and catch my breath, a flogger automatically whips me until I get back to holding them up prop-AND you’re blushing!”

“I’m not!”

“So tell me, miss I’m-not-a-sadist, did you find yourself mmmenjoying these chapters?”

“...yes.”

“What parts?”

“Well, the author is good at playing on tension. You feel the weight of every order. Nothing is glossed over and it feels like Gina has a very realistic and in-character response to each one.”

“So you found all of mmmmenjoyable?”

“I’m going to mmmmkick you in the mmmmnuts if you don’t mmmmstop.”

“Fair. Question still stands.”

“No, I didn’t find all of it enjoyable. Gambio seems to have a definite interest in the scatological, which I can’t say I share. I like my porn to be...sanitary. The humiliation is quite well done, though.”

“I don’t know. I kinda dig the power dynamic between the two here. It’s always fun to watch a brat being punished. But I find myself feeling a bit bad for Gina. Could someone honestly be evil enough to deserve all this?”

“Dunno. What do you think of Marcie’s claim that it’s all platonic joy she feels from it?”

“Bullshit.”

“I agree. Also, use more polite language.”

“Now you’re just copying her.”
