Reading new Rules

Current Curses:

Lucy:

• Biggest Slut [Level 2/4]: User is compelled to constantly adjust her outfit, so that it always is the most revealing one in range. Greater levels of this Punishment give an increase in range. [Current Range: The same section of the building.]
• Cold Front: Permanently erect nipples with heightened sensitivity.
• Dancing Queen: Dance when music is played.
• Desirous Deception: User gets aroused whenever she tells a lie. Noticing someone telling a lie has the same effect on the User.
• French Introduction: Introduces self with heavy french kissing.
• Head Girl: A build up over time of desire to suck cock. Can never refuse a request to give a blowjob.
• Lesbian Tendencies: User will casually preform lesbian acts with the women around her. User is made bisexual. The acts may be a conscious or subconscious decision.
• People are Starving: Loves the taste of semen. Will consume if they see any.
• Sissy-phus: User can only become less aroused by orgasming.
• Truly Fanatic: User gains a **** desire to have sex with anyone even remotely famous they meet.

Current Synergy: Cum Slut (Head Girl + People are Starving): User can not consume any normal food. Instead the User requires to consume semen.

Mia:

• Beat Face: Permanent makeup completely covering face.
• Inked: A Variety of slutty tattoos on the body.
• Say Cheese: User orgasms when she or someone takes a picture of her.

Current Synergy: None

Sabyne:

• Baby got back: Increased ass size with a rounded shape.

Current Synergy: None

'I actually enjoyed it. It wasn't a fake enjoyment, like the App causes, I don't think it was.'

It was no realization Lucy could believe to possibly be true. She must be missing something, perhaps it is just the App that makes her think it was genuine enjoyment, or perhaps the App was interacting with her most basic instincts. Like how one could hate a certain food like hell, but make that person starve just long enough, and that same person would find this awful food to taste like the most wonderful thing in existence.'Yes, perhaps I was just hungry enough.' Lucy was not sure if this was possible to be true, or if she was just trying to convince herself that it was.

Returning to her room, Lucy was greeted by both Mia, who in the meantime had returned, and Sabyne, who had just woken up. Mia, who had positioned herself somewhat distanced from Sabyne, still keeping her right cheek hidden from Sabyne's and Lucy's views, stood up from the bed she had been sitting on.

"What was that just then? Where did you go?"

"I... I'd rather not talk about it..."

"Well bad luck, you kind of have to. You said it's the App, that means it's gonna happen again, right? We have to be prepared for that, we need to know what's going on!"

At that point, a still somewhat sleepy, Sabyne slipped herself into the conversation.

"The app? What app?"

"THE App!", both girls exclaimed in unison. Sabyne's complexion turned more pale than Lucy would have thought humanly possible.

"Oh, fuck! That wasn't a dream, wasn't it? ...oh, fuck..."

Lucy, trying not to answer Mia's question truthfully, and being aware that lying was not a good idea due to Desirous Deception, decided to use this short conversational detour to her advantage, and completely derail it toward a different topic.

"Yes exactly, that App. And you know what's weird? That it has yet to **** us to play again. It should have already done it by now, so why hasn't it happened yet?"

This visibly concerned Mia.

"Right..., umm, Lucy, you've had it longer than we had it. Any idea what could cause it then?"

"I..., I don't know."

"Well, maybe it's over. Maybe it won't do more to you, to us. Think positive."

Lucy looked at Sabyne in disbelief, mentally preparing to lecture her about the witty and manipulative malice that permeates every aspect of the App and why such a suggestion is probably the most unrealistic example of wishful thinking Lucy had ever experienced, when suddenly all three girls noticed a malicious notification, emerging audibly from each of their phones. Thus, Lucy merely replied to the point.

"Think of the App as the devil in... in digital. You've just made the devil angry."

And with that remark, all three girls sat down and started their new rounds.

Lucy obviously did not pay any attention to Mia or Sabyne, she could not help them, she had to help herself. She did not fail as fatally early on, as she did most of the time. Actually, Lucy was doing quite well and managed to get just the right combos she needed. She managed to get the necessary points to win and still had about a third of the time left. 'Mia! She does not know how to play, no one warned her of the traps and such!'

Lucy rushed over to Mia, sat down next to her and gave her some rushed advice whilst involuntarily groping Mia's left tit, but to no avail, she could not save what had already been lost. Inevitably, Mia groaned, recognizing her defeat. The despised three choices appeared on the screen:

'Jail Break', 'People are Starving', 'Unknowing Flirt'

Lucy's phone simultaneously vibrated, but Lucy ignored it for now. Recognizing that Mia's facial expression appeared somewhat helpless, Lucy gave her some advice:

"Okay, no idea what Jail Break or Unknowing Flirt do, but People are Starving makes you love cum. Really love it. You'd have to eat, I mean drink, I mean... you know what I mean, and you would do it automatically."

"But... but why do I have to choose? I... don't want to choose..."

"You have to, or you'll get all three. Like last time."

"Fuck, so... uhm... I mean I don't want random strangers start flirting with me. I don't want anyone to notice me, I don't want anyone to see these..."

Lucy understood Mia's attitude, she herself did not know how she would have dealt with such tattoos if it had been her to get that Curse.

"What about Jail Break? What does it do?"

"No idea. These names are always so cryptic. Wait, remember Jake? You know, that wannabe nerd who made a huge thing out of breaking his phone when he tried to hack it. I don't remember what he tried to do, but I think he mentioned the word jailbreak. So..., maybe something to do with the internet?"

"Hmm, you mean like, it sets me up with an OnlyFans?"

"I don't know, it might be something totally different. This is just a guess. Probably a bad one..."

"Well, I guess I'll go for it. Not that I have a good choice..."

One tap on a Punishment and with its application its description was unlocked:

'Jail Break: User's breasts will fall out the top or bottom of shirt at random intervals.'

Mia let Lucy read it, who promptly judged its effects.

"Definitely not anything I had expected. This could get annoying, though it depends on how the App defines random intervals..."

"Annoying?!"

"Well, trust me, it gets much worse..."

Lucy notices her phone still vibrating, yet chooses to still ignore it. Instead, she moves over to Sabyne, who has yet to make her own choice. Looking over Sabyne's shoulder Lucy could read:

'Always Open', 'French Introduction', 'Rough Trade'

"Hmm, never seen the first or the last one, but French Introduction makes you make out with..."

"Yes, yes I remember. You've shown me..."

Again Lucy's phone vibrated once more. And this time Lucy took the time to check it out.

'Alliances between players never prosper. Instead of winning 3 Tokens please pick one of the following Punishments to be added. The Punishment will also be applied to the other guilty party.'

A shocked sigh escaped Lucy's closed lips. With dread she read the Punishments from which she will have to select.

'Follow my Lead', 'Goldfish Brain', 'Town Bicycle'

With not enough time left on the counter to properly think about her options, Lucy ruled out both Goldfish Brain and Town Bicycle purely due to their name and thus selected Follow my Lead.

Before Lucy could read the description of her and Mia's new Punishment, she got approached by Sabyne.

"So, uhm, my name's Sabyne."

"Yeah, I know, you alright?"

Sabyne waited for a short moment before answering

"...Huh..., so, what's your's?"

"Uhm, Lucy? Don't you r-"

And with that both girls lunged forward, arms open, letting their lips touch in the most erotic lesbian make-out that Mia had ever witnessed. It took the girls almost half a minute until they were able to release themselves from their lewd display and for Sabyne to speak again.

"So that's how it works."

"You chose French Introduction, didn't you? You didn't forget who I am."

"Yes, it seemed like the safest option, how often do you need to introduce yourself to people? Especially in a country this uhm, reclusive? I wanted to test-, find out how it works before, you know, before having to on the outside."

"Couldn't you have at least, I don't know, warned me beforehand?"

"Thought you would appreciate it."

"Now why would I?"

"Hmm, you other Curse, what was it? Lesbian Curious?"

Before Lucy could respond to this blatantly wrong statement by scolding her friend about how this perhaps already constitutes as ****, and how the App may affect her behavior, but how that does not mean that it affects her feelings toward such an act, a third voice interrupted the exchange.

"Uhm, guys, why did I just get another Curse? One more than I should have?"

"Oh, I know why... I'm sorry..."

"What have you done!?"

"It's uhm... It's because I helped you. The App didn't like that and we both got a Punishment for that. The same in fact."

"So, it's because of your help, that I now have to ask other people to have sex with me?!"

"Uhhm..."

Lucy took a short moment to avert her gaze to her phone, skimming the description of her most recent Punishment.

'Follow My Lead - Whenever the User propositions others for sexual acts, the more degrading these are to herself the more irresistible will be the temptation for the propositioned. As the user gets more aroused, she will find it harder to resist tempting others.'

"...yes, I-, that's what happened. I'm sorry Mia."

Mia in turn, turned herself away from Lucy in an obviously both offended and dismissive manner. Sabyne eyed Lucy with a meaningless look.

"Come on, let's not do this. We are in this together. We can't fight each other, not now. We have to work together to defeat this App, if we even want to have a chance. Together we can be stronger."

And just the moment in which Lucy had finished her last sentence, three phones suddenly, simultaneously vibrated, Gem Ladies notifying its three gem ladies of their newest changes to the rules:

'Welcome to the Threesome Mode BETA edition. This new and exciting Mode works just like the Gem Ladies you are used to but was optimized for the ideal 3-player experience.

1. The game will automatically start for each player at the same time. A countdown of at least 10 minutes will inform all players in advance.
2. Winning a round will grant you 1 Threesome Point, losing one will remove 1 Threesome Point. It is possible to have negative values of Threesome Points.
3. After each round a 1-minute duration will be reserved for the Punishment Selection. The Punishments will only be applied once this duration is over.
4. When a player has won a round, each player may choose one Punishment to remove from every winning player.
5. If multiple players choose the same Punishment, the winning player will not receive any Tokens for the "wasted" selection. If the winning player does not possess any Punishments, she will also receive no Tokens.
6. When having lost a round you may choose your own Punishment.
7. If exactly 2 players have lost a round, they will choose each other's Punishment.
8. Failure to play a round will result in 3 random Punishments being applied.
9. Failure to complete the Punishment Selection in time will result in your selection being randomized. Additionally, you will also receive each Punishment that was applied this round.
10. The Threesome Mode goes on for 5 Rounds, the winner may choose 5 Punishments to remove from themselves and 1 to remove from every player that did not lose the Threesome Mode, while the player with the worst positive score and any player with a negative score will be declared loser and get 3 random Punishments applied.
11. If there is a tie in the first place, no one will be declared the winner, and thus no one can remove Punishments.
12. If there is a tie in the last place, multiple players will be declared losers.
13. After concluding the Threesome Mode, any player with a negative score will get the amount of negative Threesome Points applied in random Punishments to them.
14. You may choose to play other rounds in normal mode in between the automatically starting rounds, however these rounds will not be counted as Threesome Mode rounds.
15. The player with the lowest score may also challenge another player to a Duel Round. Before the duel, each player chooses one of their Punishments to be transferred to their opponent if they win. A Duel Round has no requirements to win, instead it is won by the girl that performs better. The girl that loses the Duel will additionally gain one more Punishment applied to her, chosen by the winning player out of a random selection of 3. If the player that initiated the Duel Round wins, she gains 2 Threesome Points. There are no additional rewards for winning a Duel as the challenged player. A Duel Round may only be played once in between each Threesome Round, thus a maximum of 4 Duels can be fought during one Game of Threesome Mode.
16. If multiple players share the lowest score of Threesome Points, no Duel may be fought. Instead, each of these players may choose to gain 1 Threesome Point in exchange for also gaining 2 Punishments.
17. Synergies, when unlocked, will be voted on by all players. If the result is indecisive, the receiver of the Synergy may choose. They can also be changed by a majority of players in between rounds, though only once per player.

Have fun playing this new and exciting version of the game. First round starts in 40 minutes.'

'Now this is just great.'

=====================

Finally, the 3-player mode. This is what I've been working up to. This is why and how the girls will receive much more Curses very fast. I hope I didn't over-complicate the rules too much, though I still wanted it to be unnecessarily devious, and deviously complicated, it's Gem Ladies after all...

duduvar, I hope you'll like how Follow my Lead will be applied. I might even apply Matchmaker in the future, though I can't promise yet. I also really like your other suggestion. I'm not yet sure who will get it, but I have some ideas that could end up making this Curse really devastating. Regarding your question about French Introduction, I hope this chapter explained how I interpret this Punishment to work, though I have observed other authors interpreting it differently. Guess it's just one of those inconsistent Punishments...

Calldy, I like the idea of the "truthful tattoos", though this seems very specific to her current situation. If I'll use it might even let her believe it to be true, i. e. let her question which of her sex partners have actually been sex partners, and which of them were just made up by the App. That Synergy suggestion sounds similar to the new Patient Zero Punishment in tf-mistress' section of Ramona. I might use that one instead. The cum targets are also interesting, though I can't figure out which effect they could add...

SoapInAss, thanks also for your three suggestions. Chains & Whips Excite Me sounds like a more **** version of Rough Trade. I might still go for the latter. Similarly, Dick-tatorship seems similar to Punishments like Command Zone, Praying at the Altar, Yes (Wo)Man, or What ever you say, it is obviously only half as big in scale, I might use it since it wouldn't necessarily change the dynamic between the girls too much. Ask And Ye Shall Receive sounds very good, just the perfect amount of cheesiness that I really want it to appear, though it is also very specific. I'm not sure how I can make multiple instances of coin flips believable, though I have an idea, I am just not sure if it would be over the top. Still, I'll try my best to work it in.

Please write suggestions for curses and story in the comments if you got any. I'll try to include them. Feedback is greatly appreciated.
