Trials and Transformations

"And we're back!" The contestants looked around, disoriented. Clearly some things had changed during the time dilation, as the stage that had been set up for their contest now looked a lot more like that of their debut, though this time with stools instead of cages for them. An enthusiastic waving of Rahne's hands indicated that they should sit, which the exhausted Annie and Sigrid did eagerly.

"Firstly, apologies for the issues with the voting platform! Those should not be a factor in future." Rahne seemed nervous. The producers clearly were not happy with her for this.

"Now, onto the transformations! We're going to announce the transformations in reverse Best Contestant order! Get a bit of tension building as we head towards the winner. So, let's start with our least popular contestant! This contestant was, far and away, the least popular, with the overwhelming majority of last place votes! And, gang, let me tell you, it was not even close. Let's welcome up to the stage: Annie!"

A harsh spotlight slammed onto Annie's face. She blinked a little. She wasn't expecting to be the favourite, but she had, at worst thought her chances were more 'below average' than 'dead last'. The short redhead froze.

"Come on, Annie! Don't want to make the audience hate you more than they already do!" Annie, still a little in shock, slowly pulled herself up onto her exhausted, now trembling, legs. She gingerly stepped up next to Rahne.

"So, firstly, you'll be picking up a five Victory Point penalty for being so damn unpopular. How do you feel about the whole situation?"

"I, uh..." Annie wasn't the greatest public speaker at the best of times. "I don't understand."

"Well, if I were to guess, I would say the audience are punishing you for your promiscuity! Bit weird for the audience of a sex show, but you do you fans!"

"I-I didn't know." Annie mumbled

"I think it's a bit late for intent. They just don't like you. Hell, it wasn't even like you were all that polarising. Your votes were, overwhelmingly, negative. People don't like what they've seen of you so far." Annie stood there, tears welling in her eyes. She couldn't understand why Rahne was being so demeaning towards her, given that Rahne had to have known this was a possibility and still took advantage of her.

"As for your results, yours were split dead even down the middle, a perfect fifty-fifty split! Which means it's now time for a Harem Hotel classic: a dual transformation!"

Getting Caught/Rule 34 – If it exists, this contestant will get caught masturbating to porn of it! This contestant will feel compelled to indulge in one of the kinks they’ve developed for one hour, every day. If they choose to indulge whichever kink they consider most ****, there’s no chance at being caught. A kink in the middle of the extremities has a one-in-three chance, and the mildest kink will result in a two-in-three chance to be caught. Further, masturbating to porn of a kink, instead of physically indulging in it will double both the porn watching duration and increase odds of getting caught by 66.6% (For example, watching porn of their mildest kink will result in being guaranteed to get caught and a 33.3% chance of getting caught twice!)

Annie's welling tears began to slowly roll down her face as she mentally cursed them for escaping her eyes. This had gone from two potentially rough transformations to one brutal combo.

"Oooh! That looks nasty! Hope the audience is happy with how that turned out!"

All Annie could get out while trying to hold back a full blown cry was "W-why?"

"Well, you also had some issues with your voting, so, to make it up to the audience, who, to remind you, seem to really dislike you, we decided to make the fusion extra harsh, instead of, say, just having you get caught masturbating to weird porn."

Annie just looked at her feet. Just like when her mother shouted at her when she was younger, Annie thought the only real move here was to just avoid eye contact and wait until it's over. Nothing she could say or do would change it from here and the more she talked, the longer the humiliation would last.

Luckily, her tactic worked quickly as Rahne got sick, or potentially nervous, about the dead air. "Well, back to your seat! Let's find out who's losing three VP!"

Annie left the stage far faster than she approached it, **** to get out of the spotlight. She sat down and took her glasses off, wiping her eyes on her sleeve. To her right, Sigrid reached an arm out to her and flexed her calloused hand open and shut, as if to say, "I'd put a hand on your shoulder if I could reach you from here".

"So, next up is a contestant who is probably getting used to being on the bottom! It's one of our competition's last place finishers: Kate!"

Kate tilted her head back and let out an exasperated "Fuck!" as the spotlight hit her. She got to her feet and approached the host. "I'm fucking sick of losing."

"Oooh, that sounds like someone is going to push hard for the next competition! Here's hoping you can turn it around! Ready for your transformation?"

"No." Kate said with her own smirk, enjoying her defiance. "But fuck it I guess."

"Your transformation was also a close one, with What Are You Doing? hitting an early lead. But, dragging over the line with a small, but clear, victory was..."

Lights, Camera, Action! – Pointing a camera at this contestant will cause them to briefly lose partial control of their body. A stereotypical porn situation will play out with this contestant as the star. They will still have control of their actions, but will find themselves unable to not eagerly participate in the scene. Anyone else required for the porn scene will find themselves aroused, consenting, aware of what’s happening, eager to participate and compelled to record the sex via photo or video.

"Fuck it, I guess. Sure." Kate just shrugged.

"You seem okay with this." Rahne's statement definitely felt more like a question.

"I mean, the idea of losing control of my body sucks. How often am I really going to be on camera though?"

Back on the stools, Mia suddenly put two and two together, realising why the producers had made Kate her roommate. "Oh no..." she murmured.

Back on the stage though, Rahne wasn't going to let the opportunity slide. "Well, if you're so sure it won't be set off a lot, let's take the moment to show the audience what will happen!" Rahne pulled out a phone and quickly snapped a selfie with Kate in the background.

The moment she was recorded, Kate felt a schism within her. It was weird, feeling like she had a whole new set of memories, her true ones fading to the side. Now, Kate believed herself to be a porn actress, though the details of her life as a porn star were fuzzy, and incomplete. She was not a fan of her purple haired co-star, and the game show host setting was a little unusual, but hey, a paying gig was a paying gig. And this set had at least let her wear normal clothes. She'd thrust her chest out and put on the classic, naive, stereotypical porn persona to get through the scene.

"Oh no! I don't wanna lose any points!" The assembled contestants went a little wide eyed seeing Kate's demeanour shift so suddenly. "I really wanna win! Rahne, isn't there anything I can do for some extra points? Anything at all?"

"Come see me after the presentation." Rahne said, aware that Kate wasn't herself, but finding the idea of making a sex tape pretty enticing anyway. "I'm sure if you work hard, we'll find a job you can perform to earn some points."

"Okay!" Kate walked back to her seat with an exaggerated, sexualised stride, sitting down and twirling her hair around her finger.

Rahne, being magical, was aware of what was happening and powerful enough to stop it. "Now, just because sleeping with me has clearly hurt some contestants in the past, let's just end the scene here." Rahne snapped her fingers and Kate's personality overtook the role. Her posture shifted immediately as she flipped off the host.

"You okay?" Danni quietly called from the next seat over.

"Yeah, it's fucking weird though." Rahne looked at them with a raised eyebrow as Kate responded, much in the way a teacher might at the girls talking up the back of class. "I'll explain later."

Rahne moved right along. "Next up, we have Kate's co-conspirator: River!"

"Figures." River trudged their way up next to Rahne.

"So, now that you're down a victory point for your trouble, do you regret sabotaging the other players in the competition."

"You're sure I'm just not middle of the pack?"

"Looking at that contest and how far ahead first place was in the polls? You absolutely shot yourself in the foot."

"Well, then, honestly, and it's probably not doing anything for me making it up to the viewers, no, I don't regret it. I need to get someone to make a master cum so I can relax. After that, I can relax for long enough to go about making it up to my fellow contestants."

"Well, speaking of other people fucking the master..."

Vicarious Bliss – This contestant will feel double the sexual pleasure felt by anyone being fucked by the master. However, any orgasms that would be felt by that person are not experienced by this contestant. They’ll feel the pleasure crest, but never go over the edge.

"I guess I'll just have to hope the master cums easy."

"You don't seem too upset."

"Look, I should be; and I probably will be once I've lived with this for long enough to forget I had another option. But, and I can't stress this enough, right now I just want someone to make the master cum."

"Well, let's hope we can get your mind off its one track!" River returned to their seat, content with the result. Having dodged the further delay to their orgasm, their anxiety now directed itself to the order of dates.

"Now! Time for the last member of the trio, Danni! Come on down!"

Danni stood and walked over to Rahne. "So, Danni, do you regret joining in the with others, knowing it may have cost you victory points?"

"Do you really think it hurt us that badly?"

"Looking at how far in front first was? Yeah. It really did."

"I dunno, it's the first week. They barely know us. It's some reason to not like us. I'm sure this isn't going to be a long term trend for us."

"A bold assumption to be making."

Danni rolled her eyes. "What else should I do, take it personally?"

"A very resilient attitude! Let's see if your transformation changes that! Overwhelmingly, the most one sided poll, with over 90% of the vote, it's..."

Miami 2 Ibiza – There’s more than one place to party! No longer just limited to club looks, this contestant will now add slutty festival rave outfits to their wardrobe! Bodysuits, bikinis, fishnets and all other typical festival fashions are about to become a frequent outfit choice!

Danni gave a small fist pump.

"You seem happy with that result."

"With slutty fishnets as clothing? I'll stick to the clubbing fits. But, honestly, this has just given me access to shorts and the ability to wear a bikini to the beach. I'll take it."

"Well, let's see what you've won!" With a snap of Rahne's fingers, Danni's clothing began to shift. The short skirt she'd selected for mobility fused together in the middle, turning into a pair of truly tiny dance shorts that a good third of her asscheeks poked out of. Danni hadn't even really paid too much attention to it other than the physical sensations as her top shredded itself and spun into smaller and smaller threads, ultimately becoming a fishnet bodysuit that, thanks to the size of the shorts, all the contestants sitting behind her could tell was thong backed. This was not the only garment to wedge itself between her cheeks, as her underwear became a bright, neon green g-string bikini, the straps of which also proudly protruded from the shorts. This was matched with a skimpy little bikini top and, in a weird sensation as they were smeared across her nipples out of nowhere, two alien pasties. She also felt a lot more solid as the heels she'd worn were replaced with big chunky platform sneakers.

"What the fuck!" Danni attempted to cover up for modesty.

"Don't worry! All your other other outfits have remained as normal. We've even generously provided two extra rave-ready outfits for you!"

"Oh, gee, thanks!" Danni's voice dripped with both sarcasm and embarrassment. "Can I please get out of this spotlight now?"

"Of course! But don't get too comfortable! You'll be returning for your Master Transformation momentarily!"

Danni had already turned to leave the stage as she responded with an unenthusiastic, "Can't wait."

"Next up, our first contestant earning points today, it's Mia!" Mia hurried up to see Rahne, hoping that the faster it started the faster it would finish. Sigrid sat confused. She had assumed she was probably in third; Rahne's description of how popular first was making her think it was well out of her reach. Now she was just confused. There was no way she would win a popularity contest, right?

"So, Mia, top half of the contestants! And that's your first victory point too! How do you feel?"

"Um, good?"

"You should feel good! This is a win!"

"Yay?"

"Yay indeed! Let's see what the audience decided for you:"

Its A Great Way to Practice – This contestant is going to be compelled to stream live once per day. They will be assessed based on user engagement. They will be instinctively be aware of the current engagement level in order to help with this. Low engagement will result in a temporary punishment once the stream is over; some of which are a major risk for challenge days! And, just to make it clear what is most likely to result in higher engagement, they will be immune to any sections in a terms of use document for their streaming site regarding sexual content.

Mia was already nervous. She was never good at public speaking, and now she'd have to be compelled to go live on the internet and, what, talk and entertain people? And that's the optimistic best case scenario?

"So, how do you feel about it?"

"Not-uh, not great."

"You mean you don't like the idea of being a famous streamer?"

"I-I don't like the idea of being famous. At all."

"Then why compete in Scrabble tournaments? Why not just stay home and play anonymously online?"

Mia's brow furrowed. Then she opened her mouth to talk but nothing came out. She really didn't have a good answer for that.

Rahne smirked. "I'll let you sit back down and think about that."

Mia almost aimlessly floated back to her seat, her worldview shaken, in response.

"That leaves our second place finisher, which will also reveal who came first, but we'll get second out of the way now. Our second place, earning three VP, is Nat!"

Sigrid stood up and took a few steps forward only to see Nat had done the same. "Oh... Oh!" Her moment of confusion and exclamation of clarity passed, and she hurried to sit back down, embarrassed, but also just completely bewildered at the idea that she could not only be popular, but the most popular?!

Meanwhile Nat, almost worried she'd made her tits too small by mistake and misheard her own name, had slowly made her way up to the stage. "They went with the lips, didn't they?"

"Hold your horses there, Nat. We haven't even asked how you feel! Second place! That's a big deal!"

"It's great? I don't really know what response you're looking for."

"I'm looking for honesty."

"Then, honestly, this contest has ruined my life too much to care about three arbitrary points."

"Well, I do appreciate the honesty! Let's move on to the transformation, and, you called it!"

DSLs – Ah, the classic bimbo feature. This contestant will gain some thick, plump lips, perfect for blowjobs! In fact, we also got rid of their gag reflex! To make sure they take advantage of this new feature, this contestant must perform one blowjob daily or the remote that controls their transformations will teleport to a random location in the Hotel twisted all the way to one side chosen at random.

Nat felt her lips swelling outwards. Relaxing as she was, she felt her lips sit in a natural pucker, as though they were shaped to give her that stereotypical bimbo duckbill face. She tried an exploratory lick of her lips and found she could just barely get her tongue all the way up her top lip it was so thick and swollen.

"Woah tha-" Nat paused, thrown off by the feeling of trying to talk with her new lips. "Whu. Whu." She was experimenting, discovering the sensations she previously would have ignored by default.

"While you're playing with your new lips, I'll remind you, you've got until the end of the day to perform a blowjob, or that remote you rely on will be sent somewhere at random!"

Nat, not willing to embarrass herself further, just glared, rather than trying to stumble through learning the new sensations of her lips.

"Take your seat Nat, we've got a winner to chat to!" Nat and Sigrid walked past each other as the blonde sheepishly took the stage.

"So, as your little snafu earlier would suggest, you didn't expect to win. But here you are with five whole victory points to show for it! How does it feel?"

"Con-uh," Sigrid swallowed. Their mouth was really dry. Was anyone else's mouth really dry? "I'm going with confusing?"

"Is that a question or a statement?"

"Confusing. Winning was- is, sorry, confusing."

"Oh? And why would you be confused?"

"I guess," Sigrid paused. It is, after all, hard to phrase your anxieties out loud with people watching. "I guess I'm not used to people liking the six-foot-two blacksmith over, say, the petite nerd, or the skinny gym girl."

"Well, then you're lucky our viewers aren't completely concerned with looks! I'd explain why the fans seemed to like you, but I'd hate to have your competitors mimic you and become too similar!"

Sigrid couldn't even respond. The idea of people trying to mimic her to be more popular was so fully anathema to her self identity she almost tried to reject the idea outright.

"So, while you're trying to wrap your head around winning," Rahne said, filling the dead air. "Let's get your transformation sorted!"

Black Lipstick – This contestant will be compelled to add heavy make-up to their daily routine, especially a heavy black lipstick. Get used to waking up early!

Sigrid exhaled. Both of her changes were pretty minor, especially compared to Annie's double up, but she was still relieved at getting the lighter of her two transformations.

"The audience definitely threw you a soft ball there!"

"Yeah, um, thank you?" The show was clearly being recorded somehow, but with no visible cameras, Sigrid didn't know where to look and address her gratitude.

"I'm sure you're very welcome! Go back and take a seat, and then let's have a chat with our challenge champion again!"

Danni was covering up her chest still, feeling very exposed in the tiny bikini. Still her and Sigrid swapped spots at the front of the stage.

"So, Danni, you'll be receiving the first Master Transformation, as a contestant, in the history of the show. How do you feel about that?"

"Uh, honestly, I kinda don't know the history of the show to know how special that is."

"That is very fair! Well, as a show that exists outside of space time, it's technically impossible to know how many seasons proceeded yours as they all occur simultaneously, and also never; but, from a pseudo-linear perspective, there have been around thirty-five to forty seasons before this transformation."

Danni was too busy trying to wrap her head around the first half of the sentence to fully acknowledge the number at the end of it.

"Uh... okay. Then... wow?"

"Good answer! So, let's show you what each of your transformations have become!"

SUPERSTAR: The hotel now has everything this contestant needs to be a famous musician! The multi-purpose room has been transformed into a state of the art recording studio, and the penthouse suite should give an appropriate rock star vibe. All they need now is a harem full of groupies!

Superstar - Muses - Where would any famous artist be without their inspiration? This Master is about to have six different sources. Whenever a member of the harem makes this Master cum, the Master's musical talent, capability for good original ideas and motivation will all double. It will then deteriorate back down to its original level at a rate of (0.5 * Original Talent Level)/Hr. And, just to make sure the harem are appropriately inspiring visually, not just physically, the harem will all be subject to the master's previous contestant dress code standards.

Superstar - Merch Table - Ah the concert and festival staple: the Merch Table! The hotel now has a booth where the harem can now purchase merchandise in support of this Master. BP used for the purchase will be given directly to the Master. To incentivise purchase, anything bought at the merch table is exempt from the Dress Code rules.

Danni was actually stunned. She'd assumed they'd just give her a cock and be done with it. "Does this mean I'm free of my dress code?"

"It absolutely does!" Rahne clicked her fingers and Danni was back in the t-shirt and cargo pants she'd worn to work, now blissfully clean and warm.

"Oh my fucking god I've missed pants."

"I'm sure your harem will feel the same way once the week is up!" Danni turned to her fellow contestants, turned soon-to-be-harem, with an apologetic look as Rahne snapped her fingers again.

"Oh for fucks sake!" Kate felt her pants shrink and shrink and shrink, turning into a festival ready pair of leatherette booty shorts and their top turn into a mesh bodysuit. Platform sneakers and a black bandeau top finished her look. Meanwhile, Mia was feeling her pleated skirt get shorter and her comfy sweater evaporate, revealing a little spaghetti strap bustier top.

Sigrid had gone from elated at her win to shouting "No, no, no, no, no" as she watched her pants disintegrate into fishnet thigh highs and her top turn into a strappy leather harness over a studded black bra top. She was so tall, she hated showing off her legs, she felt they just made her feel even taller. Contrastingly, Nat just let her new thick lips part and let out a sigh as she accepted the bubblegum pink halterneck tying itself onto her. It had only been a few days, but given her constantly changing body, Nat was already just done with transformations.

Annie initially thought she'd gotten off pretty light, given the radically more provocative outfits her new colleagues were in. Her black dress had a high collar and long sleeves. That was until she realised how short and how see through it was... and how skimpy the bikini they'd put her in underneath it was. She could only presume this was actually a festival outfit.

River couldn't really decide if they were relieved the hotel had put them in shorts or offended. They were non-binary, they still wore skirts! Just not skirts as short as what the others had been put in. Or crop tops as short as the one currently revealing almost all of their stomach. They had literally never been clubbing, but the crop top and tiny denim booty shorts they were currently clad in definitely wouldn't have been their first pick.

"Now, Danni, ethics dictate that, regardless of how much you appreciate the aesthetics of your fellow contestants, you're not going to honestly tell me if you think they all look hot right now."

Danni raise her eyebrow. This was clearly a trap. "I mean, I'll say it: they're all beautiful."

"Yes, but the audience want to know if you want to fuck them."

Ah, there it was. "I'm not going to answer that."

"No. But your new appendage will!" With a final snap of her fingers, Danni clenched her legs together as she felt her underwear swell forwards.

"Ohhhhhh..." It was intensely pleasurable as she felt the nerve endings of her clit stretch outwards. "Fuck!" Danni grabbed her crotch, only to find what felt like a respectably girthy girlcock, rock hard and pushing proudly and visibly forward into her cargo pants. After a few deep breaths, and her girlcock stopping its growth, Danni stood up. It was big. Danni had her share of hook-ups in the past and she would have been pleased to see a tent this size in a pair of pants before. It was much less hot to her when it was her own pants.

"I think she likes you gang!" Rahne called up to the Harem. The six remaining contestants were fidgeting awkwardly, trying to preserve some amount of modesty and definitely avoiding their new Master's gaze... and also avoiding looking towards the south pole.

"So! The you have it! We finally have a master this season! How will our first week of dates go? How will our contestants handle the new dress code? Will the audience come round on Annie? Will Sigrid lose their favour? We'll find out next time on Harem Hotel: Battle Royale!"

Annie - 10 VP (-5 VP)

Kate - 8 VP (-3 VP)

Nat - 6 VP (+3 VP)

Sigrid - 5 VP (+5 VP)

River - 2 VP (-1 VP)

Danni - 2 VP (0 VP)

Mia - 1 VP (+1 VP)
