Things get Steamy

Opening the door to your bathroom, you are met with the sound of spraying water. There, in the fogged glass of your shower door, you can see EV3's nude silhouette. Her ass slightly presses against the glass and she's running her fingers through her wet hair.

You open the door and step inside. A somewhat soapy EV3 smiles at you warmly and moves over, making room for you. Water cascades over you both. The temperature is just right, hot but not scolding.

"It feels so real." You close your eyes and tilt your chin up, feeling each individual droplet patter against your face. "I never questioned this, but how does the system even know what my shower looks like? Let alone my apartment? Everything feels and looks the same."

EV3 pauses her lathering and responds. "It's pretty complicated but consider the system like a framework. It has a basic shape to it, but in order to make it as realistic as possible, it draws on your subconscious to fill in the gaps."

"So, it's reading my mind?" You aren't so sure if you are comfortable with that.

"Not really. It's not like, actively monitoring your thoughts or anything, more like using your brain as a catalogue. When you touch me for example." EV3 grabs your hand and holds it to her wet breast. "The system sends out a ping into your brain and flags the appropriate sensations, the smoothness of my skin against yours, the warmth of my body under your fingertips, things like that."

"So, my VICE apartment looks like my real apartment because that's what my subconscious projected when queried?" You ask, wrapping your head around it."

"Exactly." EV3 runs her soapy hands up your chest.

"Huh, I guess I'm cool with that. Does that mean I'm limited by my own experiences?"

"Missing or any additional required information sends a request back to VICE's central servers. They compile and log their own databases." EV3 slips around you and starts washing your back.

You sigh contently as EV3 works her way up to your shoulders and begins massaging you with a surprisingly firm grip considering her delicate arms.
