Some Mending, Some Management, Some Meeting

Glitterdust

Glitterdust yawns, opening her jaw as wide as it goes. Passing out on a bed is sooooo uncomfortable. She tries her best to stretch out the kinks in her spine. Next time, ask MY sex bud to push ME onto the floor. Or better yet, onto the pile of treasure I laid out for MYSELF. The princess is doing sword maintenance, her bra armor suddenly much fuller than last night. She’s almost as big as MY MtF goddess!

“Hey, Aelene! Thank you for last night! Was I a good sex bud dragon or the best sex bud dragon?”

“You were... acceptable. You would not happen to have Identify on your spell list? I’d like to see what improvements last night made to my weapon.”

“Nope. Sorry. Despite MY awesomeness, I outsource MY need to appraise magic items in MY treasure horde. I am sure Daphne can do that for you.”

Glitterdust then rolls out of the too-soft bed and starts to roll around on the floor, trying to get her back into proper alignment. Aelene continues to focus on her maintenance, not saying a word. Sooner or later, the big, sexy dragon feels like herself. She thereupon crawls on all fours to nuzzle into Aelene’s metal panty covered crotch.

“Do you have time for one more romp with ME before breakfast?”

Aelene sighs. “No, Glitterdust, I do not. However, if you can behave, I could use your firepower on my date today. A sexual romp is sure to end up on the itinerary. Would you like to join me?”

A chance to seduce MY MtF goddess? And all I have to do is be nice? “Okay!!!!!!” Glitterdust wags her sexy dragon tail, her spines wiggle with glee.

“Good girl. Come along now. We have to check in with Daphne before Lady Harper gets back.”

Daphne

“You have a very strong grip, Ms. Daphne. My thorax is aching.”

Daphne lets go of the wasp-girl, who does look not particularly happy about being used as a cuddling device overnight. She apologizes, “Oh, oops, sorry. Would some raw fish for breakfast help?”

“No. My kind are nectarivores. Only sugary liquids for me.”

“Heh,” Daphne giggles, “Harper doesn’t exactly believe in carbohydrates, but I’m sure she’ll manage to let you eat. Did you at least think about my advice while I cuddled into you?”

“Yes. It is an acceptable plan of attack. I will follow through with it. In the meantime, I am in need of some sustenance. Shall we procure some victuals?”

“Sure. I can eat. And since Skye isn’t here right now, I can totally pig out on a whole fish or two and she can’t complain about my eating habits! Let’s go!!!!”

Daphne is so excited that she falls out of bed. Honey is a little more dignified as she carefully lifts herself off of the bed and daintily stands up. She does look a little crunched in spots on her thorax and a wing is at a bad angle. The wasp-girl winces in pain as she tries to flap her wings. The buzzing sounds off, somehow. “Yes,” she mutters, “you have a very strong grip. I shall need some assistance in mending myself, I think.”

Oh, shoot. “If you can find a seat in the cafeteria, I’ll fetch our healer bunny. Be right back.”

Daphne clumsily runs to the next room over (only falling over twice!) and knocks on the door. A very grumpy looking Josie opens it a minute or two later. Explaining the situation, a still half asleep Tina is dragged to the cafeteria. They see a Honey, oozing some bright blue liquid through several cracks in her thorax, drinking a Mellow Yellow. “Closest thing to food I could find. Still hungry.” she notes.

That wakes Tina up. After a few uses of Tina’s healing magics, Honey looks better. “Sorry for hugging too hard.” Daphne apologizes again.

“No worries, Ms. Daphne. A brief squeeze of that strength is fine. One lasting for several hours was not. Now we know. And thank you, Ms. Campbell, for your assistance. It is appreciated.”

Tina beams at the gratitude as Josie rolls her eyes. “You are way too calm about the fish nearly killing you, Bug. So, who’s cooking breakfast?”

“Ooooh, I know how to make Pop-Tarts!” Tina blurts out.

“And I know how to select and eat raw fish!” Daphne offers. Daphne then heads to the kitchen to do exactly that. She’s not too concerned that no one is following her. She heads straight to where the fish is stored. Oooooh, look at that tasty, tasty squid! That one is mine! Let’s see what the others could eat...

Harper

The date party gets back to the unreality of the Harem Hotel at 8 AM, which is a little later than when promised but not too big of a deal. After a quick, no-nonsense shower alone, she spends a few moments checking messages and notifications in the pool while the others get ready for the rest of the day. From the sounds she can barely hear in the water coming out from the bathroom, they are having a little bit of nonsense in the shower. Not enough nonsense to trigger anything, but some.

The key notification to check, of course, is Tercanonehtar’s free level on Harper’s character sheet.

Tercanonehtar (Level 3): Finesse. Versatile (3 slashing, [3] radiant). 2 slashing damage, [3] radiant damage. This longsword can be used as an arcane focus. Leveled spells cast through this weapon gains [+3] damage per level of the spell. When an evil aligned creature is struck by radiant damage through this blade, that creature cannot have their HP or max HP increase in any fashion for the next 1 minute. Such creatures also suffer [double] disadvantage when casting magic on their next turn. If the creature critically fails to cast a spell due to being struck by Tercanonehtar, they will suffer [6] radiant damage per level of the spell, in addition to other effects. Leveled items can be increased by meeting set conditions. To Level: Do what the sword’s name tells you to. Again.

Okay, so more bonus damage. Looks like further levels will add to the disadvantage from casting. Ooooh, bonus damage if they fail to cast badly enough. And it looks like Tercanonehtar isn’t capped to 3 levels like the other leveled magic items? Good to know.

Harper hears noise coming towards her, so she quickly closes her character sheet. Scarlet is the first one out. Once Harper gets out of the pool, the oread gently wraps her arms around the sea elf’s neck, apologetically asking, “I have a feeling you may be tired of me checking, but how’s the soul damage pain?”

Harper pats Scarlet’s hand as she answers, “Don’t apologize for caring about me, love. 2 or 3. We had an extra big dose of treatment last night, but we should probably broaden the dose to include the others. I don’t want to drag Skye out on every date from now on in case I need an emergency treatment. If it gets unmanageable, you’ll be the first to know.”

The two head to the living area and take a seat. Scarlet adjusts “the dosage”, only for Mattie and Skye to come out of the bathroom. Mattie struts out with the confidence that only comes from post-orgy bliss, wearing nothing but a towel wrapped around her hair to let it dry. She sits on the couch across from Harper with a smirk. Skye is a little less confident, but her smile lights up the room regardless. Skye takes a seat right by Harper, resting her head on her wife’s arm. Harper opens up to let the drow lean into Harper’s breast instead.

“Sooo, I’m naked all day, unless either the catsuit decides to let me put it on early or you have a sudden clothes shop open up, but at least I know you enjoy the view, Sarge.” Mattie decides to emphasize her statement by uncrossing her legs in dramatic fashion. Skye coyly nuzzles into Harper as the other 2 women chuckle. “Feel up for a little DM action before we head downstairs?”

Tablet out. Time to get to work. After walking Mattie through the options, she prefers the extra damage from sneak attack and uncanny dodge from 2 levels of rouge over the bonus ability check for others from 2 levels of artificer. Either way, she’d get a feat. She picks up the Piercer feat, buying a respec to move the modifier bonus of Elven Accuracy to Intelligence instead. Mattie isn’t super excited that she has to focus exclusively on artificer if she wants the capstone of her subclass, but hearing that she can make 2 cannons at once (with simultaneous firing capacity) sells her on the idea.

Mattie: -40 BP

Daphne: +4 BP (Commission)

Skye weirdly decides to split her levels between rogue and ranger. She grabs uncanny dodge and bonus sneak attack damage from her rogue level, then a teleporting in darkness ability from her ranger one, plus Aid as a ranger spell. Scarlet’s singular monk level gives her the ability to understand the intent behind all spoken languages, which is maybe more exciting to Harper than it is to Scarlet. Then again, she already knew all the languages we all speak right now.

“I’ll hit my level up right before my date. Mattie, wanna show me some make-up tricks?”

Mattie: +4 VP (Brought Mistress to Orgasm [Make-Up Lesson] x2 [first time contestant participant])

Skye

Harper looks so pretty!

Skye is in awe of how her wife looks after that last make-up session. She understands what make-up does, but this time seems different. More intense. Like something clicked into place with that last orgasm. Skye is so distracted by Harper’s beauty that she nearly falls down the stairs. The sea elf catches her and pulls her in close.

“Focus, my lovely little drow.”

Ms. Mattie lets out a low whistle. “Check out the new statuary, Sarge.”

Skye turns around to see that a new statue is in place, on the right side below Tina’s. Harper is hugging Scarlet’s leg as they smoosh their special places together? Skye is confused by it and looks to Scarlet to see how she should feel about it. Scarlet and Harper are both laughing. So, Skye is happy for Scarlet.

“Hey Sarge,” Ms. Mattie notes, “Old one’s gone.”

Harper rolls her eyes, “Of course, you’d keep looking at the gross boy ones, Cap’n.”

Skye remembers that it’s Aelene’s date day. She wants to check in on her before they go on their date. With a kiss and a wave, she says goodbye to her wife, then she heads down the stairs. Yesterday went great! I can’t wait to tell Lady Aelene about it!

Honey

Honey buzzes through the hallway, splitting off from the others as they leave the Kang-oo’s. She watches Skye bound towards the cafeteria, politely waving at the little drow. It feels good to fly. The sound of her vibrating wings always calms her nerves. She sees Harper and the others descend the stairs in the lobby.

“Hey, Blue,” Mattie asks, “You lose your shirt?”

“Oh, Ms. McMattersen, my kind normally do not wear clothing. I wear a blouse just to meet human sensibilities. Since none of you seem bothered by nudity, I figured there was no need for me to continue being clothed.”

Honey watches Harper as she explained things. There is a hunger in the sea elf’s eyes. Time to push the advantage, she thinks, asking, “Ms. O’Connor, would you please join me in private for a few minutes. There is a situation that you could assist me with at the Kang-oo’s.”

Giving her elf and oread a kiss goodbye each, Harper offers her arm. Honey awkwardly accepts it. Honey buzzes beside the walking sea elf. They enter the gas station, her case of mesquite sap smoothies still placed by the checkout lane.

“My problem is that the checkout lane here does not receive my currency. The cafeteria does not stock acceptable foodstuff for me.”

Harper looks at the case, then looks at Honey. She looks contemplative. After a few moments, she states, “Wow, your kind actually operates just on sugar. Well, let’s fix your problem. Ms. E?”

“Please don’t...”

Instead of the scary cat, a very large-breasted mermaid appears out of a scary water tube from the ground. “You know, Harper, you don’t have to go above my head every time. What do you want? We have a meeting soon and I got to prep for it.”

Honey explains the situation to the buxom mermaid, who looks annoyed. She shrugs her shoulders, “So?”

Harper also looks annoyed. “And you wonder why I keep going above your head, Ariel. Honey needs to be able to eat while she’s on set representing my interests as my lawyer. She already said she has a per diem to cover these sort of expenses. All you have to do is to either allow the system to accept it or just set up some accounting doohickey so you can charge her account on the backend. So, do it.”

“No. If you want your lawyer to eat, you can buy her food.”

A melodious voice from above declares, “I’m on it, Ms. O’Connor. Kang-oo’s is updating the checkout PoS software now. Give it a try, Ms. Honey.”

Honey buzzes over, lugging the heavy case of mesquite sap smoothies, and rings it up. Success! Honey cracks open the case, pulls a can out, and pockets the rest in her inventory. Pulling a straw out, she opens the can, inserts the straw, and starts to slurp. Mmmmmm.

Harper offers her arm again as the two exit the gas station, heading back towards the others in the bathhouse. “Thank you, Ms. O’Connor. I appreciate your efforts. Was this experience pleasant for you?”

“You were pleasant. Ariel continues to frustrate. Anything else I can do for you?”

“Not at the moment. I will let you know when that changes.”

Aelene

When Lady Harper returns to the bathhouse with the good barrister Honey, they all gather around the sea elf. Everyone (especially Aelene) wants their levels.

The good luchtoni Josie gains quadruple critical damage, plus the ability to spread her particular brand of bloodlust amongst the harem. A potentially dangerous combination, but one Aelene could plan around in combat. Her vorpal blade could be used as a strength weapon and the bloodlust would grant her advantage like she gets for elven accuracy. Having the option to use both the enlarged and regular forms with equal advantage is a tactical plus.

The good hoppalong Tina gains a whole slew of spells, as the blessing Eilistraee has granted her increases. Of note to Aelene is Revivify. An incredibly expensive spell, but one that can return a recently fallen person back to life. She also seems excited by “being able to send magic texts through my book!” I suppose that could be useful, assuming our phones do not work.

The good mermaid Daphne only gains 1 level, but that gives her the Elemental Adept feat for Lightning, plus a couple of spells. Seeing the effectiveness of Daphne’s spellcasting and battlefield tactics, Aelene is sure the mermaid will make much use of that feat.

The good dragon Glitterdust also only gains 1 level, but she gets Mass Suggestion? Aelene does not particularly see the tactical advantage of that spell. The dragon thinks strangely. She spends more time trying to show off her new collar than she does improving herself.

Finally, it is Aelene’s turn. She waited quite patiently. An extra use of Indomitable is nice, as is the extra HP. The good mermaid Daphne already explained that the extra level to her vorpal sword increased the damage from the enlarged mode and gave the weapon the thrown feature in reduced form.

Lady Harper mulls over her options, selecting Plane Shift and Teleport as her 7th level spells. Odd choices, when the mythical Delayed Blast Fireball is right there. Still, Lady Harper seems to know what she is doing. And, with that, the host mermaid Ariel appears and the meeting begins.

Ariel

“Hey, Harper, see the new decor in the bathhouse?”

Harper looks around and sees the statues of herself. Ariel snickers as the sea elf glares at the obnoxious dragon. Ooooh, boy! I can’t stand the bratty lizard, but she is quite the expert at generating some drama!

Before Harper can chew out Glitterdust, Daphne has to ruin her aunt’s fun, “Hey, Beloved, before you go a little too mean on Glitterdust again, those statues are different than the ones she bought for you. She got the unboxed one for us so we can cuddle with you when you’re gone. It’s kind of sweet, in a way. And I will admit to having the unboxed statue give me a hug or two.”

That deflates the drama before it really started, “Glitterdust, come here.”

The dragon hestitantly shuffles over to Harper. Harper wraps her up in a hug. “I’m sorry about yesterday. I shouldn’t have snapped at you. It wasn’t your fault that I was in that state and I shouldn’t have taken it out on you. Please forgive me.”

Glitterdust just keeps nuzzling into Harper’s almost respectable breasts until the sea elf coughs. “Oh, sorry. Sure. Just keep hugging ME, MY Harper.”

“Good girl. Still don’t like the Japanese porn face one. Find a spot for it with the others I told you I didn’t want to see.” Glitterdust grumbles as she mopes over to pocket the ahegao statue.

“With that out of the way, welcome back, Mistress and sluts! We are officially halfway through the round, and lots of movement on the old leaderboard this morning! New first place girl and everyone is officially safe until the endgame, provided you don’t do something dumb like try to kill your owner. Irene, if you please!”

The leaderboard populates on the reappearing screen:

• Scarlet 149 VP 359 BP

• Skye 137 VP 210 BP

• Tina 136 VP 260 BP

• Aelene 136 VP 14 BP

• Mattie 122 VP 34 BP

• Daphne 120 VP 325 BP

• Josie 109 VP 150 BP

“Congratulations to Scarlet, for using her time on another girl’s date to hopscotch over said girl to take the lead! Way to angle-shoot there.”

“That was not my intention, Skye.”

“It’s okay, Scarlet. I’m glad you made my wife happy.”

Man, these sluts are not pulling out each other’s hair like they should. It’s like they are trying to be some sort of family? Dumb sluts, you are supposed to be entertaining the audience. Garh! Maybe this will rouse some drama?

“Next item up on the agenda: your Mistress got a couple of feminization transformations evolved since our last meeting. Her boobs reached max size, despite promising to let my runty little niece balloon them up after the end of the second round and her make-up transformation completed. Let’s put the results of that betrayal, plus the other update, on the board!”

“Auntie, stop trying to stir up trouble with my harem-sisters. When Aelene and Mattie got added, things changed and I’m okay, especially now that I get to see the results. Love the big boobies, Beloved!”

They then all turn to see the evolved transformations:

A Girl’s Breast Friend – The Mistress’s has maxed out her breast size, now she gets a reward. While her nipples remain extra sensitive, her D-sized breasts are an envy to behold (as far as tiny tittied elves are concerned). When exposed (or when her outfit accentuates her breasts), Harper now has proficiency in Persuasion checks.

Make Up Your Face – The Mistress has maximized her make-up transformation, now she gets a reward. In addition to keeping the facial features of a runway model, Harper’s make-up is now permanent and capable of styling itself. The make-up will automatically coordinate with her outfit (if worn), plus her nails and hair. She will always look her best. +1 Charisma.

C’mon. Someone start a fight! It’s not that fucking hard!

“Okay, so it’s Aelene’s turn to take Harper out on a date. Surely, the sheltered princess that has never been on a date before will give us an entertaining train wreck. Oh, before I forget, we have been paying attention, but we forgot to record a batch of Mistress payments and Beckie brain-fryings, plus yesterday’s non-meeting meeting goofed that too. So, here is us displaying three days worth of that stuff. Enjoy!”

As Ariel dives away, shouting, “And that skank Arabella wants some fan mail, so get some work on cross-promotion, sluts!” the screen displays the forgotten funds and the 4 lost IQ points. Ariel is annoyed. Isn’t the whole point of this show is to watch them tear each other apart?

Beckie: (Brain) Pop Survey Progress: +4

Harper: +160 BP (+80 BP earmarked for contestant modification)
