Before The Meeting

Breakfast the next morning is a little tense. How could it not be? We’re all nervous about meeting Skylar’s parents. They agreed to meet us today, and Mia, Ivy and I wanna make a good impression. Skylar for her part, is nervous because she really wants her parents to approve of us.

She’s reassured us countless times that she loves us and will stay with us no matter what her parents say, but it’s still an important thing to her. After some quick discussion about getting ready and what time we should get there, we realise that we only have time to do a single dungeon this morning before we start getting ready.

We don’t want to test out either of the two remaining new dungeons in case they end up being longer than expected, so instead we go back into the skeletons dungeon, with the aim of collecting the rest of the frost armour set. We would do the ogres dungeon for the earth set for Paige, but she insisted we wait for her because she loves that dungeon, so skeletons it is.

Ripping through the dungeon, we defeat the boss, pick up the loot and get back to the palace in near record time. Unfortunately while we got the talisman, we didn’t get the ring that would complete the set for me. We can work on that another time. Ivy and I did level up though, and we sit down to talk about which stats we should raise.

“Most of our decisions up to this point on our stats have been about closing our weaknesses. The problem is that it’s not a good idea to balance our stats so much as we get to higher levels. We’ll always be weaker in some areas than opponents who specialise in certain areas. I don’t think either of us have any glaring weaknesses at this point, so how about we start investing in our strengths?” I ask Ivy.

She nods excitedly, very much wanting more power. “We will overwhelm those who seek to hurt or destroy us. I won’t let them win.” Ivy vows. I cuddle her tightly, feeling the same way. “We will protect what we love.” I reply, and she nods, her expression resolute. I open our character sheets to compare our stats and think about our builds.

After a few moments spent deliberating, I think out loud. “The way I see it, I’m going for a battle mage build, and you’re going for a near pure mage build. Your main stats at this point should be intellect and wisdom to help with your spell casting. Mine should be intellect and wisdom for the mage side of things, and agility because I prefer speed to strength.” I start, and Ivy nods, following along easily.

“Strength and endurance are secondary stats for you in this regard. With your already extremely high regeneration, we don’t need to invest much into either for them to be incredibly effective. Charisma might be useful if we ever get some sort of pheromones power for you.” I muse, and Ivy looks at me curiously. “Pheromones?” She asks.

I smile at her, finding the idea both appropriate for her, and pretty funny to imagine. “Poison Ivy from the comics has an ability to produce pheromones, which are chemicals that aid in her seduction and mind control.” I explain. Ivy shakes her head. “I don’t want to mind control anybody. I don’t want to seduce random people either. Only people we all love and want.” She states firmly.

I giggle happily, kissing her on the forehead. “I’m glad. Even if we did get an ability like that for you, none of us would want you to use it that way. It would more be a powerful tool to help disorient opponents. If enemies suddenly got too horny and attracted to you to attack us, it would make things a lot easier. Not to mention that it could be a fun thing to use during sex with us.” I tell her.

Ivy thinks on that for a moment and nods, smiling. “I agree. It would be useful and fun.” She replies, her eyes and expression changing for a moment to the sultry goddess that she is in the bedroom. My mind blanks and Ivy’s expression returns to normal, giggling happily. “F-fuck me, the effect you have on me sometimes.” I shake my head, my face reddening.

It’s Ivy’s turn to kiss me on the forehead. “It’s really cute!” She giggles and I smile happily at her. “In any case, your charisma stat could help with an ability like that.” I conclude, and she nods, trying to remain focused on the topic at hand. “My strength stat is high enough for the moment and thanks to mana shield, my mana bar can act as a second health bar.” I continue.

Ivy listens intently to my thinking out loud, and I have to hold back a smile. I love how she listens to me. “Because of that, my endurance stat isn’t as important any more, since raising my intellect can raise both my maximum mana and my effective health. Charisma and libido are both low priority stats for the moment.”

“With all that being said, I think our main focuses should be intellect and wisdom, with agility an addition for me. Agility is what I think I’ll focus on for the moment.” I decide, putting all 6 points in my chosen stat. That done, I turn to Ivy. “Your two choices as I see it are wisdom and intellect.” I state. “Agreed.” She states simply.

“Both will let you cast spells more often. Intellect gives you much more wiggle room with casting things than wisdom would, since your scaling for intellect is so high and your wisdom scaling is so low. But, levelling wisdom would potentially let you be able to possess plants infinitely, and if Gaia is generous enough, you might be able to infinitely heal us.” I postulate.

“That is an attractive prospect.” Ivy agrees, putting the tips of her fingers together and thinking on what I’ve said. I keep quiet, not wanting to voice an opinion and influence her decision. After a minute or two in thought, she looks up at me, having come to a decision. “Wisdom. I would really love to be able to posses plants and heal infinitely. I don’t know if Gaia will let me, but I definitely want to try working towards it.” She decides.

I nod wordlessly, putting her points into her Wisdom stat. With the stat allocations and goals sorted out for the both of us, we can turn our attention to getting ready for lunch with Skylar’s parents. Mia and Skylar have already headed off to shower, and before joining them, we check on our cats quickly, refilling their food and making sure they’re okay.

They seem to slowly be warming up to us, as they only back off a little when we approach to refill their bowls and check on everything. Neither of us move to pet them yet, we still want to wait and see if they’ll come to us eventually. If things keep going like they are, it’ll hopefully be in the next couple of days that they do.

The cats checked on, we join our girlfriends in the shower. It’s hard to avoid doing lewd things with each other. The glistening bodies of my gorgeous girlfriends bring those desires to the forefront of my mind, and I chase them away. We’re unfortunately here to get ready, not have fun, and we don’t have enough time to spare for that kind of distraction.

We dry ourselves off with the magical towels that came with the shower room in the palace. Each towel is a frosty blue colour, and has pretty designs on it that fit in with the icy theme of the palace and kingdom itself. They’re enchanted to dry our skin just about perfectly with only one pass over it. Very handy, no more drying too much or too little.

The towels are also extremely useful for drying our hair, working very well to dry the long hair that we all have. Much easier than letting it air dry or using a hair dryer. After we’ve all dried off, we start to get dressed in casual clothing. We want to look nice, but still dress fairly modestly. As proud as I am of being a whore for my girlfriends, we don’t want to project that side of things to Skylar’s parents.

We all choose to forego makeup for this particular outing. I’m quite happy with the outfit I picked, being a simple black skirt, leggings and a stylish black top. Mia wears a simple sweater with a shirt underneath, along with leggings. Ivy manifests a more modest version of her bodysuit, and Skylar wears a simple white top and jeans.

We’re all ready to go and we head outside, exiting our kingdom barrier. Skylar unlocks her car as we walk towards it. We all get inside, she starts the engine and pulls out of the parking lot, exiting the Fateweaver barrier and making our way onto mundane roads, towards Skylar’s house.
