Text - Backdated mid-Cordis Cycle (8/8)

[pishirogane]

Greetings. I can't say I have formally addressed or utilized the network properly before, but the time has come where it's become necessary I do so.

My name is Naoto and I'm currently working on a project another individual and myself have concocted a few months ago. It's finally reached a point where I must request for several volunteers. In this stage, we're seeking individuals who have been Moonblessed by Iris.

If you're interested, please contact me for further information.

[ringlette]

Thank you! And yes, I am available now. Do not feel rushed if you have other things to do, though.

[pishirogane]

It's alright. It's one ingredient missing from dinner so we'll manage.

[ringlette]

Tres bien. I'll be over there shortly!

[ In all her regality, Marie reaches the location indicated to her within few minutes. After checking multiple times that she got the address right, she presses the doorbell and beams at the person when the door is opened. ]

Bonjour! You're Naoto, right?

[pishirogane]

[Whoever Naoto was expecting, it really wasn't someone like Marie. Though, she does keep the surprise off her face when she answers.]

That's correct. Are you one of my volunteers?

[ringlette]

[ An energetic nod, her large hat bobbing along. ]

Oui! My name is Marie and I'm one of the Iris moonblessed. Pleased to meet you!

[pishirogane]

Pleased to meet you as well, Marie-san. Do you have any questions before I get it?

[ringlette]

Oh, there is none! I only hope my contribution will aid everyone in the long run. That is all.

[pishirogane]

Hm... Well, yes, we hope for that too. Wait here a moment and get it.

[ringlette]

Certainly!

[ And she does as told, stepping inside and waiting patiently. She'll be a perfectly good guest. ]

[pishirogane]

[Leaving Marie to the living room, she would return shortly with a box marked by lavender.]

Here it is. There's instructions inside, but I can provide a basic run-down of what it can do if you'd like.

[ringlette]

[ A soft blink of confusion, as she gazes over to the box. ]

Oh...! A simple run-down would help me definitely, if you may!

Oof, this got buried

[pishirogane]

Very well. As the first prototype, there's no unique shape about it; however, you can alter the texture between the standard toy smoothness or make it appear and feel like it's real. Second, the temperature can be raised or lowered, but it's limited to keep it from accidentally scalding. Third, length, girth, and curve can be changed as well depending on preference. Last, but not least, it does vibrate.

More on how to utilize these functions and the Chroma consumption is provided on the directions inside the box.

[ringlette]

[ ... Oh. Marie lets out a hum of profound understanding. ]

In other words, this one inside the box is a dildo?

[pishirogane]

Yes, it is.

[She hadn't wanted to say it really out loud in case they were overheard.]

[ringlette]

[ Well, bingo! She picks up the box, holding it in one arm while the other is placed on top, like she's about to open it. ]

May I have a look?

[pishirogane]

... I suppose you could. It's nothing particularly unique.

[She's not sure why she wanted to see it right now...]

[ringlette]

[ For science!

Marie opens the box and collects the dildo carefully. She even undoes one of her gloves to feel the texture. ]

It looks just like a normal toy indeed! To think it can be used any way we like... what a great invention!

[pishirogane]

That's the hope once it's actually completed. Each Iris is different so attempting to make one device to that fulfills all or most of them will take time and further testing.

... Right, on the instruction sheet as well, there are a few questions that I'll need answered. That can be done either by mail or messenger.

[ringlette]

[ She stops her "testing" touch, raising her eyes back to Naoto. ]

Oh! Alright. I shall make sure to place my answers down to the best of my abilities, to help you with the project.

[ It's why she's here. And after finding out what it's about? She's even more eager to give her feedback. ]

[pishirogane]

[It would be a smooth surface, but not slippery. A little lubrication might be required.]

Thank you. I'm not expecting feedback immediately, but if you could manage to report following the upcoming cycle, that might provide the best data.

[ringlette]

Of course! I will properly make sure of the time given to me.

[ She decides that Enough touching and puts the toy back in the box. ]

Thank you for giving me a chance, Naoto! If there is nothing else, I can leave now.

[pishirogane]

No, that's all. If you have any questions, feel free to message me.

[ringlette]

Tres bien! Let us talk again soon, dear Naoto!

[ With a content wave, she daintly makes her exit, box settled securely under her arm. ]
