D.E.M.O.N.S: Getting Summoned Weekly isn't so Bad

— Kat —

The group found themselves back at Sue’s place. Their shopping was done and they’d had a good time. Well, they hadn’t actually done much shopping but it was a good time regardless. Sue’s knew hair was glistening with a few specks of what seemed to be glitter scattered throughout it and really drawing the eyes. It also looked clean. Not that it normally didn’t, but… you could just sort of tell. It was definitely weird.

Still, it was a good time and Kat was curious about a few things before the left. “So, this has been good and I know you’ve answered a bunch of questions for us Sue… but how about a few more?”

“Urgh,” groaned Sue. “Sure I guess, what were you going to ask about?”

“Well… you!” said Kat after a pause, and with a big smile on her face. Lily was asleep in her arms and Kat was tempted to make Lily wave at Sue, seeing how shocked she looked. “I was wondering if you’d have much luck trying to re-invent yourself. It’s been a while since you set about it, butt I didn’t want to like… push or think we were forcing you to change,”

Sue seemed uncertain when Kamiko stepped up. “I… I’d also like to know. We haven’t really talked about it either… but um… you’ve implied you’ve been doing some things… at least…”

Sue smiled at her friends and pulled them into a quick hug. She was careful not to smother the sleeping cat too much when she did so. It wasn’t any fun if she wasn’t awake to be embarrassed about it. Besides Sylvie’s blush was enough for now. “I’ve tried a few things. Though, don’t make the mistake of thinking I’ve changed completely.

“I’ve taken a few missions and they’re all standard affair for me. I haven’t suddenly branched out into combat or something. Still, you know,” Sue glanced to the side a bit bashfully for once. “Anyway, I’ve tried a few things. I started off with sewing because I knew Kamiko’s sister was into design and I thought I could get some tips if I enjoyed it…

“But I couldn’t stand it. Kept pricking my fingers, I had to spend ages working out what sort of patterns I wanted and the end result wasn’t great. I know a lot of those things could be fixed with practice, but it’s practice I didn’t really want to do. So… I pivoted completely. This is meant to be a hobby so I tried to play some video games instead.

“That was… a mixed bag I guess? I kept getting sucked into the… more lewd games because I was always interested in what sort of kinks they’d cover but… eh not only was it no real substitute for just having sex I also didn’t feel it was different enough from normal so I tried to play less sexual games…”

Sue coughed lightly, a bit of blush on her cheeks. “I may have decided to pick a rather popular multiplayer game and it turns out I can swear with the best of them. It was a… heart bounding experience that’s for sure. I have never been so angry in my life. I mean… I enjoyed it… I think… but I was super angry even when I wasn’t playing the game. Though I DID learn a bunch of creative profanity so I can’t say my time was entirely wasted,”

Kat winced, picturing a particularly ‘funny’ game in her mind. “Perhaps it’s for the best that you didn’t stick with it…” Kat didn’t want to imagine what Sue would be like if she’d played the game for a few months, or heaven forbid. Years.

“Yeah well… after that I decided to take a pottery class based on a suggestion from my mother. It was… calming, but also very messy and I didn’t exactly have ‘pure’ thoughts for most of the three classes I went there. I mean… you’re playing with grey gloop and trying to turn it into mostly cylindrical stuff. The temptation to just make a dick out of it was practically overpowering.

“Still, I think, it’s the one with the most potential. Maybe if I make a few lewd things and get it out of my system I can start to properly relax. Just running my fingers along the stuff as I try to make it into something real? It’s actually quite relaxing even if it’s not as easy as you’d think. Takes a surprising amount of work… but it doesn’t really feel like it. So… yeah pottery, something I might get back into.

“Um… what else did I try? I did end up in a naked art class because I misread what the class was about but I didn’t even do any drawing. The model that was meant to show up just… didn’t and they needed a volunteer to replace them and well,” Sue shrugged. “It’s not like I’m particularly shy. Ended up standing around for a few classes actually,”

Kat thought about what to say to that. She had a few potential issues… but in the end she just asked, “Did you at least get paid for that?”

“Yup!” said Sue with a smile. “I mean, I considered just doing it for free but when they asked me to stick around for a second class I asked what my rate was going to be. Ended up with two Fireplace for the day which is pretty good in my opinion. Oh and I got a refund on the money I already paid which was like ten Candles,”

“Well as long as they paid you then I think it’s fine,” said Kat.

“I agree,” added Kamiko. “It would’ve been rude if you missed out on your session and didn’t even get paid for it,”

“Eh I wouldn’t have been too fussed over it but yeah I made good money for not all that much effort. It does mean I missed out on learning how to paint but… meh,” Sue shrugged. “Um… I also took a cooking class but that was pretty meh as well? I know how to make some basic foods already and the class I signed up for was for people who couldn’t cook at all it turns out so… yeah that was a bit of a waste.

“I thought about going for something more advanced but I had no real idea of how advanced I actually was on that front so I just ended up cancelling the other two cooking classes I had scheduled and took a bit of a break, went on Contract. That sort of thing,”

“That’s still a fair bit of stuff,” said Kat.

“Oh well it’s not everything!” insisted Sue. “I did try out a few more little things here and there. Spend the afternoon at an arcade but I think I’d rather just game at home then that. I spent another afternoon playing volleyball but even that was a bit rough for me. My team mates were a bit too… into it. Um… what else…

“There was that wine tasting seminar I went to but… couldn’t really taste the difference if I’m being honest and it was overpriced. I only went because my parents had been called into work and needed something to do with the tickets. I had one, and I gave it to one of my older friends to see if she was still a shithead… she was. Oh this was while you guys were away saving the world if you’re wondering why I didn’t invite either of you. Not sure how I’d work out which to pick anyway…”

“Hey it’s fine,” said Kat. “While I’ll just about always be happy to spend time with you, I’m not going to be annoyed if you go off with other people. That’s… not really how friendship should work. It’s probably not healthy to be so regularly joined at the hip the way me and Lily are but well,” Kat finished with a shrug.

“Yeah… just…” Sue shook her head. “I mentioned I took another… ‘friend’ along right? Well it was a pretty convincing case as to why I stopped hanging out with them. It was… not a fun time so… yeah thanks for being great guys,”

“No problem,” said Kat and Kamiko together. Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire

“Is there any other hobbies you’re thinking of trying?” asked Kat.

“Well I was thinking golf might be nice for a sport… but I’m not sure how well I could play with my tits in the way. I had enough issues with volleyball and I’m pretty sure tennis would be an awful idea. Maybe croquet? Not like I have a mount for that though… um… yeah a few things I’ve considered but I’m really not built for sports so I think it’ll have to be an indoor activity or straight up combat but even that,” Sue shrugged.

“Yeah, your tits are a bit big for a lot of things,” said Kamiko with a blush… but without stammering! “You could try chest binding to help… somewhat but I think even then you’re just… too large in the chest for it to be comfortable,”

Sue shrugged, “Yeah that’s not really news to me,”
