Loading... please wait.

I don't sleep, of course, nor do I raid the fridge. But that leaves me with several hours of nothing to do. I don't want to turn on the TV - it might wake Jessica - so instead, I clean. I am going to be living here, after all.  I move slowly, taking ten on stealth. I don't have a great modifier on it yet, just a +2, but with the -10 "sleeping" penalty to Perception and the walls in the way, that's fine for not disturbing Jessica. And I don’t make a sound when casting thanks to the Telepathic Casting ability. And I have sixty foot darkvision, so I don’t even bother with the lights.

I make a great discovery while cleaning: Jessica's house has rats. Yeah, normally that's bad, but I can use the experience.  I can see better than they can, but my aim isn't great. I miss with Acid Splash on the first try… but I'm already hiding, and it takes a bit for the rat to figure out where to run. It doesn't get a chance to decide, as my second shot hits. Squealing in pain, the third shot ends the fight… but I still need to stomp on the rat's head a few times to actually kill it. Acid Splash is a really weak spell.

I then dispose of the rat in the trash, clean up the blood… and raid the fridge for bait. Rats usually live in nests, you see.  I warm up some leftover General Tso's Chicken so it's fragrant and put the plate on the floor. And wait.  I'm a poor shot, so I miss a lot… but rats are hungry, and I removed all the other sources of food they might have in the house. So they just keep coming back. And Mending fixes what little damage my misses make to the house.

My bait and kill program nets me twelve rat corpses by the time Jessica gets up and turns on the lights… where of course she finds me, sitting in the dark, staring intently at a plate of leftovers on the living room floor, a room that is otherwise immaculate now. Seems she sleeps naked normally, and hasn't gotten used to having a houseguest yet. I enjoy the view, and don't plan to draw attention to the fact that I was a guy a week ago.

And yes, her carpet matches her drapes.

"What are you doing?" Jessica seems to be slow to wake up.

"You have rats!" I respond, excitement in my voice.

"Oh," she sounds annoyed, "I guess I need to call the exterminator again."

"No! Don't do that! It's a good thing. Let me kill them!"

Her brain clearly still booting up, Jessica insists, "But we need to get rats quickly, otherwise they'll breed and wreck the house."

"I got a dozen already!  Just let me take care of them.  I can use the practice!"

"Wait… you said you needed ten to level up…" Ah, good, she's starting to connect the dots.

"Right. You already have rats, so you don't need to buy them."

"Isn't that the same outfit as yesterday? Trouble sleeping?" Seems her brain is starting to fire on all cylinders.

"Yeah, I wasn't tired, so I started doing housework, and got a bit excited when I found you had rats." Not technically a lie.

"So you haven't gotten any sleep, and you're level two now?"

"Yeah. I should rest so I can make use of my new powers," This one is true. I need to spend some time worshiping myself, designate myself as my high priest, summon my new eidolon, rest and re-prepare spells… I have a good ten hours lined up. Well, three, after I'm my new high priest and can make use of Recuperation. It cuts out most of the rest time.

"Great. Well… I need to get to work. As long as you're fine… but you really need to rest. All nighters are not good for you."

"I'll go upstairs now," I verbalize as I suit actions to words. I watch her walking towards the master bedroom as I start to head upstairs.

Upstairs, I do my mental level up paperwork, going through a bunch of prompts in my head like a video game, and then spend some time praying to myself (yes, it’s weird, and totally not intended, but within the rules), and then bless myself as my high priest. Feeling the power flow, I meditate for an hour, refreshing myself. I then take an hour to prepare my new spell loadout, and a minute to summon my new eidolon meatsuit. While doing all this, I listen as Jessica gets in her car and heads to work. She doesn't spend much time at home in the mornings.

However, after that three hour routine, I'm stuck on what to do.  If I do any housework now, Jessica will scold me for it. I don't have any ID yet, so I can’t go job hunting. Hmm.

I go ahead and check out the bathroom. It's a bit dusty from disuse, but otherwise fine. A sink, a toilet, a medicine cabinet, and a small shower with a seat. I guess Jessica doesn't come up here much. I take a shower - I don't really need it to get clean, but I always enjoyed hot water before.

It takes a bit for me to find a setting I like on the shower head. My new skin doesn't like the harder push anymore. Which is amusing, as I just picked up Hardness 20 from a theoretical CR 2 Adamantine Animated Object (it needed some drawbacks to keep the CR down,but those don't affect me, as I didn't buy them myself).  Those hits from the rapist wouldn't even touch my HP now. To hurt me physically takes over 20 damage in a single blow, because the hardness reduces basically all incoming damage by that amount. A rifle could do it on a critical hit, but nothing short of that should scratch me now. Yet I still feel everything normally. The water feels especially good on my chest. Mmmm…

I stop when I run out of hot water, and - my chest starting to ache a little - I dig out the pump Jessica bought me yesterday. It doesn't come with instructions, a hazard of used goods. Still, how hard could it be? Looking at it, I find it's a clear cup attached to a small device with a dial and three settings - namely: 'Off,' 'Pump,' and 'Let down.' The first two seem obvious, I wonder what that last one is?

Figuring the tube is where milk will come out, I go sit down in the shower, put the cup to my chest, aim the tube at the drain, and flip it to 'Pump' - and nothing happens. Ah, the battery must be dead. Well, it came with a charger… I connect it, and try again. It starts sucking, and in moments I have a slow stream of milk coming out. Feels OK. Kind of nice. Odd though, I was getting it out faster by hand with the video instructions… maybe the other setting? I flip it over to 'let down'...

… and I'm glad I'm sitting already. If I wasn't, I would have fallen. It's a vibrator, and for whatever reason my new chest is at least as sensitive as my old shaft. I know this isn't normal - most girls simply tolerate chest play, they don't get anything out of it - but I'm not most girls. I need to milk myself regardless, so I start to bite my lip, then realize: I'm alone in the house, and the nearest neighbor is quite some distance away. There's little reason to hold back.

I let loose, moaning like an actress wanting an award from AVN. Heat builds quickly in my middle as milk comes out of my chest in earnest, and in maybe five minutes, I feel an earthquake as I scream out my pleasure and drench the seat in the shower. I feel another building almost immediately, and a few minutes later, I see stars as I go off again. And it doesn't stop. I go off a third time before the milk slows down to a trickle and I shut off the pump. As I bask in the afterglow, I realize something:

I have three more jumbo jugs to empty.

I confirm a few things experimentally as I finish: First, my sensitivity does not fall off with use; the last ride of my milking session buries me in pleasure just as much as the first. Second, my new body does not tire; if I weren't out of milk, I could do that again. Third: I can still count to twelve when I'm distracted.

I turn the shower on, and use the flexible head to rinse the milk and my juices off my body and down the drain. I lose my balance when the stream of water crosses my lower lips. I may want to try that again later, but not now. I dry off and get dressed, using Prestidigitation to "clean" the water from my hair.

Still floating on cloud nine, I check the time: It's only been about five hours since Jessica left for work. Which means I don't need to worry about her coming home for another three to five hours.

Hmm… Wild Arcana lets me spend Mythic power to cast any spell of a level I could cast from my class list whether I know the spell or not - and at a higher caster level as a swift action to boot; Versatile Spellcaster plus Heighten Spell lets me cast spells a level above where I have spell slots, so that's currently 2nd level spells; Generic Spellcaster gives me access to the Druid, Cleric, Wizard,and Sorcerer spell lists - all the big guns of casting; and Mythic Outpouring means I never run out of Mythic power.

I'm also a lot stronger now, physically.  The Synthesist Summoner uses the Eidolon's physical ability scores while merged, and I have a full progression on it thanks to the Expertise option from Mythic Traditions. So I'm rocking a Strength score of seventeen now - that's not professional bodybuilder level, but I should be able to dead lift like 260 pounds. Of course, I look like I'm inside a transparent plastic suit. But Disguise Self fixes that right up, will last a good forty minutes, and I can renew it as often as I like with but a moment's thought.

Did I mention I love cheese when I don’t need to worry about breaking a gaming table?

Of course, I have to know to renew it. Maybe a watch that can be set to chime every 30 minutes? A phone is probably easier to rig… two more things I don't have the money to buy.

But after the hour I just had, that doesn't bother me. I'll have some ID in a few days, and I'm sure I can do something for money. Maybe dancing? I don't have ranks in Perform, but I have really good Charisma, and the Divine Insight spell should make up for the ranks and then some. Maybe a circumstance bonus for having an exra pair. And I'm a guy. I don't really care if anyone sees my chest.

Those thoughts in mind, I head outside to explore the grounds. Maybe I'll find some snakes….
