Sandra's visits and class assignment

Author’s Note : Here are the final votes for Cotton’s Class

• Maid 11
• Goth 10
• Perfect student 10
• Nerd 10
• Good Girl 4
• Secretary 3
• Android 3

As you can see there’s more vote than comments because some suggested multiple classes at once, you might disagree with the way I counted them (I took the first three of someone’s ranked list for example).
Maid is winning very slightly.
Since Good Girl wasn’t even a suggested class and has a very similar path to perfect student, that could be counted as 14 votes for perfect student as well.
I feel like the first 4 classes are all very close which is why I think it’s a good idea to delay the class choice (at least until Cotton’s next appearance). (And to set up an online poll for ease of use, because I spent a long time counting the votes.)

Thank you everyone for your comments.

(John’s POV)

I press the button, but I’m overwhelmed by the choices, there are so many possible classes and I can’t even read them all.
I’ll admit when I read the maid class I imagine the girl serving me coffee in an embarrassing costume and that’s a good feeling.
I then imagine see the goth class, and imagine her losing all her friends as her interests changes and her fashion style evolves.
I then shake my head, what am I even thinking? Do I really need to ruin her life because she was slightly aggressive with me? I look at the Perfect Student class and think about improving her life instead, even if I do imagine her in a student uniform, I also think about helping her with her studies, and having her get what I assume would be her first good-natured friends.
And my thoughts go too far as I think about what she would look like if she was a nerd instead, losing her popularity and gaining the hobbies she must laugh at.

I am aroused at the idea of changing her. I feel like I don’t recognize myself, maybe I should turn it off before making a mistake. I need to think with my brain this time, I don’t want a repeat of what happened with Maria earlier, even if it was great in the end.

(Rita’s POV)

A seductive pose… A seductive pose… A seductive pose…

I look at the Give Up button under the quest, it has never been this tempting before, apart maybe from that moment at the gym where I felt like my body was going to die.

I look at the reward again, Parasocial Affection I, it sounded too good, so I spent 10 long minutes searching through the perk tree to find it.

I did find it and it even has an upgrade.

Parasocial Affection I: Increase affection of people that receive pictures directly from you, affection gained increases proportionally to photo lewdness.

Parasocial Affection II: Increase affection of people that see pictures of you, affection gained increases proportionally to photo lewdness. Perk effect is largely reduced if target doesn’t know you personally.

I could seduce John by sending photos to him once in a while, and I guess the upgrade could help if I wanted to post more photos online. Who am I kidding, I’ve been posting a picture almost everyday since I got the quest for it.
I don’t get many interactions, but the few comments are people encouraging me and noticing that I’m losing some weight.
Maybe I should give John my Stargram, but I’d be devastated if he thought that made me a slut. I even have a picture of me in a Wei cosplay, the cute girl with the freeze gun from underwatch, I chose it because it hides my body well, and because my quest **** me to put it on.
I might be exaggerating slightly, I was very happy when I looked at myself in the mirror, the Modelling I perk made the costume fit well, and I looked kind of good in it. My Stargram followers also agreed, all fifteen of them…

I’m stalling instead of taking the picture I was supposed to, I look at my still too big body in the mirror and my brain freeze at the idea of me putting on a seductive pose.

I check the app again, it would be so easy to give up. I reread the quest, actually now that I think about it, the quest says to send the picture to someone I like, which means I could send it to June, but she’s my roommate so that would be embarrassing everytime I see her.
I guess there’s still Miss Maria… I trust her to not show it to anyone, and to be kind as well.

With my regained motivation, I stand in front of my mirror again. I’m dressed in a comfortable sweater, and grey pants. Since I don’t really know how to do a seductive pose, I decide to copy other Stargrammers, and I end up with a pic where I take a picture of my mirror, where I’m pushing my breasts together and leaning forward, I hope it’s not too much, but I have trust in Miss Maria.

I go to my text messages, click on her contact and send the picture in a hurry, the less I think about it the better.
I attach a message about wanting to know what she thinks about my clothes and close the message app.

I instantly receive a notification from LifeQuest congratulating me.

You completed a hard quest. [+15 xp] [+10 bonus xp]

Levelled up!

I have a lot of perk points, so I guess I could buy something with them. I guess I can upgrade Parasocial Affection.

You bought the Parasocial Affection II perk for 2 points.

Name: Rita
Surname : Torres
Gender: Female
Age : 22
Level 9 (6 / 20 xp)
Class: Cosplayer
Perks : Makeup I, Photogenic II, Modelling I, Flirty I, Cosplay I, Pokerface I, Parasocial Affection II
Perk Points : 2

I am close to level 10, I wonder if I’ll unlock something else from it.

My thoughts are cut as I receive a text message from John.

[You look great in this. I don’t know if I’m the right person to ask but I think it suits you!]

What is he talking about? I press his answer, bringing me to our conversation and I almost die of the shock, did my fat fingers press the wrong contact? Why did he receive the picture?

I panic, and check Miss Maria’s conversation, but the last message was her thanking me for coming to the gym with her.
Fuck, I messed up! Why am I always messing everything up! John is judging me!
I reread his text and I try to calm down. H-He did say I looked great! Maybe he doesn’t think less of me now?

I read his message again, and I calm down some more. Okay Rita, you did mess up, but somehow everything is alright. Maybe he won’t ghost you or avoid you.
I really wanted to lose more weight before sending him a picture, but I couldn’t exercise all day, I have school and sore muscles holding me back. I guess as long as he didn’t mind, that’s okay. Maybe he even liked what he saw, and would want more?

Haha, maybe I should stop dreaming, especially when it’s this late already, I still didn’t do my homework.

(John’s POV)

Was that a good enough answer? I’m bad at compliments and she didn’t answer back. I also check the app, she gained a new perk and already upgraded it, so I check it’s effects.

Parasocial Affection II: Increase affection of people that see pictures of you, affection gained increases proportionally to photo lewdness. Perk effect is largely reduced if target doesn’t know you personally. (Hidden: Medium compulsion to send sexy pictures to people you like. Negligeable arousal increase everytime someone is aroused by a photo of you.)

That is a very strong perk, it looks like it would synergize well with her cosplayer class. That should help her become more popular.
I turn the app off, and put on some music as I start the car, I think Sandra liked rock so I swap to a radio that sounds like her style.
I arrive at her garage not long after. Denis Garage is a shop in the middle of town, and as I arrive, I see Sandra talking with a man in a car, they laugh together, and soon after he’s gone, letting some space for me to park.

She notices me and make big waves at me. As she gets closer I lower the glass.

“Yo John, I’ll be done in a few minutes, hope you don’t mind waiting.”

I nod and she goes back, I see her removing big black gloves and wiping her sweat off with a towel before talking with an older man, that I assume is her boss.

She put her tools back on the shelves, fist bump another guy’s hand and she comes back.

I open the car for her and she sits next to me.

The first thing I notice is the strong smell of oil coming from her, the second, is her that her white t-shirt has big black stains all over it.

“So, ready to visit some apartments with me?” She asks and I feel like I understand why Alex wanted me to accompany her so much.

“How about taking a shower and changing your clothes first? I think first impressions matter, and our first visit is in more than an hour anyway.”

“I guess I could clean up if we have time. But if we go back at Alex we might not make it, it’s pretty close from here.” She says and I agree with her.

“How about going at mine then? It’s closer and we’ll be there in time.”

“Oh? You want to invite a lady home? What a flirt. I guess I wouldn’t mind.” She whispers into my ear.

I know she’s just teasing me, but I’m a simple man, and I have to hide my erection as I drive home.

“Oh, that’s a band I listened to in college! Damn, it’s been a while.” She says as she starts singing along, her singing is bad, but I smile anyway.

---

“It’s pretty big! And clean. Maybe that’s the right place for me.”

“Well, that would mean living with two guys and there’s only two bedrooms.” I explain.

“Ah, but Alex was living here too right?”

“He took the living room, he said it didn’t bother him to sleep on the couch.”

“Little bro made a sacrifice huh… I remember when he told mom and dad he wanted to move out to live with his friend. They had a big fight and everything.”

I don’t remember Alex telling me about that, I guess his parents have always been pretty controlling because of how Sandra acted at the time.

“Here is the shower, and I have some unisex clothes you can put on, but next time you should bring a bag with clean clothes.” She nods and goes in.

I sit on the couch and relax for a while by watching a video.

As we try to leave, we meet Matt going home, I thought he was in his room, but instead he’s coming in with an empty bag.

“Sandra? Huh, hello.”

“Hello Matt, how’re you doing?”

“I’m fine, I was just talking with a neighbor.”

“And drinking, I can smell **** from here.” She adds.

“Yep, what are you doing here?” He asks.

“She was just taking a shower, I’m bringing her to visit a few apartments.” I explain, and he nods.

---

“And as you can see there’s also a big bathroom, with a shower.” Says the guide as we look around.

I’m not an expert but I can see mold growing from the bathroom’s ceiling.

“John, it’s a pretty nice place isn’t it?” Sandra asks discreetly.

“Not really, did you hear the sound of traffic from the bedroom? And there’s mold in the bathroom. I think it’s definitely not worth that price.” I explain, and I wonder if she would have been satisfied coming alone.

We visit a few more places, but they either have issues that the seller glides over, or are ridiculously overpriced, sometimes both at the same time.

“Five visits for nothing…” She complains.

“I’m bringing you back at Alex for today, but we have more visits planned tomorrow.”

“Fine, but it feels like there’s nothing good available.”

“It might seem like that, but I’m sure we’ll find something, you have time, don’t hurry too much. If you moved to a bad place, you would regret it.”

She seems satisfied, and we spend the trip listening to music and making small talk.

Once I’m back home, I just want to lay down on my bed. I open my bedroom’s door, and see Matt leaning on my bed, he jumps as he hears me coming in.

“Ah… John… I-I was making your bed. I-I guess I’ll leave now.”

At first I want to react strongly, but then I remember that it’s normal for Matt to be around my room since it’s part of the house.

“Okay, thanks…” I tell him as he leaves.

I sit down on my still messy bed and I check the app.

Matt completed an advanced quest. [+7 xp] [+7 bonus xp]

A target attained level 10 for the first time. [+1 instant perk upgrade for target]

That’s the first time I get this kind of reward, and a window opens where I can simply choose a perk that Matt has, I notice that some, like Unrestricted Access are missing, which must mean no upgrade exist for it.

I don’t know what to choose, but I guess Sweet Voice I could use an upgrade since he will have a collab soon, I press it, and it changes into Sweet Voice II.

Sweet Voice II : Voice becomes very melodious and attention grabbing. (Hidden: Censored swears and dirty words. Compulsion to use cuter alternatives to normal vocabulary)

With that, Matt is finally level 10, which means I can use Multi-Classer to assign him a second class. And I already have a class in mind for him.
I press Add Class, and find the one I’m looking for fairly quickly. A popup appears, to tell me that both classes will be fused into one and I accept.

I have a lot of perks now, it's starting to get hard to read. I press my info window, and it displays the same advanced physical tab I've unlocked for my targets.
I completely forgot, but I guess I can use the Character Editor on myself.

I look at it, wondering what and if I should change anything there, I did just get a big physical improvement thanks to Perk Sharing II, but I can always improve some more. I think about it, and I decide to improve the condition of my teeth. As I press apply, I notice there's only a checkbox for public unawareness since I'm not a target. A cooldown starts and I check myself out with my phone's camera.

My smile looked pretty much perfect, and I was surprised by how much a 'small change' really could be.
I turned my phone off and played on my computer as I heard Matt preparing my meal.
