Claudia closes her eyes and moans softly as you stroke her thigh and she moves her head close enough to yours that you can feel her warm breath on you. From behind you, Sandy pulls up a bit closer, gently crushing her breasts to your back and places her lips at the nape of your neck.

>>Nimue [Stanley Sergeant]: I can be available to meet at either time. I will allow you to pick the place if you would feel safer.<<

»Stanley Sergeant [Nimue]: Hum, I'll…« Distracted by Claudia and Sandy, Cynthia shivers slightly with a slight moan. She quickly sends the remainder of her message before she gets too distracted to do so »Stanley Sergeant [Nimue]: I'll let you know. I'll decide around 21:00.«

Message sent, she shifted slightly in the bed, to grab Claudia's ass "Don't you ever have enough?" She kisses the top of Claudia's chest, on top of the breasts "Not that I'm really complaining, but still…" She turns her head to look at Sandy before Claudia gets to kiss her "And you're as bad as she is!" She turns to present her back to Claudia, moving a bit to get lower and lightly kisses Sandy's chest, teasing the nipples and nibbling at them. She raised her head "But I should probably stop that, or you'll think I'm rewarding that behavior…" Despite the words, it seemed pretty obvious she didn't plan on doing any thing of the sort, enjoying the effect she had on the two other girls.

You are rewarded by matching giggles from the other girls then moans from your kisses. As you turn to face Sandy, you feel Claudia's hands stroking your side and back and her lips gently caress your neck as she speaks in a low voice. "I am like a deprived kid in the candy store. I don't think that I will ever get enough of you two."

Sandy sighs as you release her nipple to speak. "Not sure that you needed to stop doing that, my love. Less talking and more kissing and sucking. Yes, much more."

Cynthia shivered slightly when Claudia caressed her neck. She glanced at Sandy then "Someone's being bossy..." She didn't seem to mind though, and continued to toy with Sandy's nipples, sometimes going a bit farther down, to kiss her belly, or her waist. It's only after a couple of minute, when Sandy can't take much more than that, that she licks Sandy's clitoris. Once. Then goes back to the belly and nipples. A minute later, she goes back down again, running her tongue on Sandy's labia, teasing. Finally, she focused on Sandy's clitoris, while her fingers explore Sandy's vulva, all the way to the entrance of her vagina, but never penetrating it.

Finally, when Sandy had reached the orgasm, she turned back to Claudia, kissing her deeply, then beginning anew with her. At some point though, while she was toying with her clitoris, she looked up "Can I... Are you...?" While the question by itself was less than clear, the position of her finger, on the vagina's opening, probably made it clear enough. It seemed to Cynthia that if Claudia's hymen had already been breached, then not going there would only be like doing half the job. She wanted to give as much pleasure as she could. And... Well, she was a bit curious. She didn't want to take the responsibility of the pain that would go with a first time though.

Your ministrations have Sandy moaning ever louder as you continue. Claudia is taking advantage of this by continuing to kiss and lick at your neck and her hand reaches around to fondle your breast. By the time you have Sandy gasping and quivering as her orgasm rolls through her, you are fairly well worked up as well. When you turn to Claudia you see a light in her eyes that seems to call to you. When you ask your question, she nods and whispers back. "It is alright, Cynthia. That was broken long ago by one of my earlier toys. You can do whatever you want to me. I assure you that I will enjoy all of it, but do expect similar treatment from both of us."

Indeed, Sandy takes that moment to gently slap your ass. "Darned right, you should expect something similar. Or, at least you should expect that once I recover from what you just did to me."

[Cynthia Rawson - 15:08, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1161

"Oh..." That seemed to stump Cynthia for a second or two. She glanced at Sandy, then nodded with a smile "I'm more than ready." With some concern though, she added "But no... Erm... Mine is... well... Intact still."

With that, she focused back on Claudia, knowing that Sandy would soon take care of her adding some spice to it. She didn't penetrate Claudia with her finger straight away though, instead playing around it for a little while. After maybe a minute, she poked at the vagina's entrance, then slipped the tip of her finger inside...for barely a second, before taking it away. Over the next few minutes, she started to do more, exploring, listening to Claudia's reactions, fully putting one, then two fingers in her, feeling around, etc. While she still licked the clitoris at some points, she also spent some time simply looking at what she was doing...and the effect she had.

Your touch causes Claudia to shiver with pleasure and she is more than willing to let you know what pleases her and what does not. You are actually doing far more to please her than not and there is little question that you are taking her to a large orgasm. After a few minutes, you see her stiffen then spasm several times as she moans for you to not stop. The moans become yells as she calls out your name and thrashes against your face.

She eventually pulls your fingers out of her and uses her hands to pull your face up to hers, kissing you feverishly then collapsing onto her back as she tries to catch her breath. "Frag. You two could make me forget my name. Seriously, though, Cynthia, you can still be pleasured a lot if you want to save yourself for the right guy, but I have toys that can get you past that whole hymen thing, if you are interested, of course. There will be some pain, but only good stuff after that. Your call."

[Cynthia Rawson - 15:54, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1162

Cynthia shook her head "I don't care about some "guy". It's just..." She shrugged uncomfortably. She just didn't want to hurt, that was all. Though of course... she couldn't exactly say it, could she? Instead, she just cuddled against Claudia and Sandy "Our guests arrive in an hour, we'll need to get ready. And get a shower... Or at least I have to, since I'm the one who invited them."

[Mercy]

From behind you, Sandy's breath is warm on your neck. "We will not force anything upon you, dearest Cynthia. I cannot speak to you about the pain you will feel, but I can tell you that for me, it was like a jot then done. I have experienced so much pleasure and joy since then, that the pain is long forgotten. But it does seem that you are saved from making that decision. That shower is large enough for all three of us to enjoy." Sandy brushes a hand across you breast and kisses your neck once more before crawling out of bed.

Claudia is still recovering. "What she said. I will join the two of you as soon as my legs allow me to walk. You are some lover."

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 15:54, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1163

Cynthia looked at Sandy, surprise clear in her eyes "Oh, I thought you didn't.... You hadn't..." She shook her head. Judging from the smile brightening her face, she rather liked Claudia's comment, which she showed by a quick kiss, before jumping out of bed, gathering her clothes and following Sandy to the shower.

They still had a bit more than an hour before her guests arrived, but she wanted to make sure everything was ready. Not that she had much fears there, nor was it really important. It was more of a work reunion than anything else after all. But... One way or another, they were still the first guests invited to the house. Plus, there was still the possibility that one of them made the shower a bit more than what it was supposed to be, so better be prepared.

The shower is indeed large enough for all three of you and, although there is a good bit of shared soaping up and rinsing off, there is little fooling around but several promises are made for later. After the shower, all three dry off then Sandy and Claudia walk off in their towels to their own rooms to dress. Within a couple minutes of them leaving, there is a knock at your door and you hear a woman's voice call out. "Miss Cynthia? It is April. I am here to help you dress. May I come in?"

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 16:14, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1164

Not really thinking about it, Cynthia answered "Sure." As April got into the room though, she turned in her direction with a start, covering her small breasts with the piece of clothes she happened to have in hand at the time, forgetting that she wasn't wearing panties at the moment "Wait, dress? Why would I need help to get dressed?"

[Mercy]

Saturday June 15th, 2075 1614, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle


April smiles at you as she enters the room then moves over to the tall closets that line the right-hand wall. Her eyes scan you as she opens the first one, showing four dresses on hangers. "You will be entertaining this evening, Miss Cynthia. You cannot go dressed as you are. Renee had these sent over for you and said that more will come as she gets them finished. Now, what do you think is best for today?" She takes a dress from the closet and brings it to you. Its earthy colors seem appropriate to the occasion as she holds it up to you. "I think this will do just fine, Miss Cynthia, what do you think?"

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 16:14, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1165

"Uh…" For a couple of seconds, Cynthia seemed at a loss for words, looking at the dress April was holding. Finally, with a sight, she surrendered, and dropped her arms to her side. She was looking pretty silly like that… She wasn't comfortable being naked - hell she wasn't that comfortable standing naked in front of Sandy and Claudia - but… She couldn't do much about it. Hell, the fastest way to get dressed was probably to let April do her things. As such, she barely glanced at the dress and nodded "Sure." Left to her own devices, she probably would have gone with a jean and a t-shirt. Well, had she owned any of course…

As she let April do her thing, she was for the first time glad she didn't have hair at the moment: at least that was one less thing for someone else than her to take care of. This was really going to get some getting used to… At least no one wanted to help her take a bath. Except for Claudia and Sandy of course, but that was special after all.

By the time April was done though, she was glad there was neither bra nor socks… It wouldn't have added much, but anything would have felt too much.

You probably could have managed to dress yourself, but certainly not as fast. When April finishes, she takes you to stand in front of a tall mirror. The image shows a very attractive young woman in a period dress. April stands just off to the side, giving her look a critical eye before smiling. "You are a wonder, Miss Cynthia. Serenity is very lucky to have you here."

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 16:30, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1166

Cynthia shrugged a bit uncomfortable "Yeah well, it's all in the dress..." She glanced mournfully at her head, wishing, again, that she had her hair. No matter what happened the next day, she had to find a solution. Hell, she refused to believe that Mages who could send fireballs and whatnot were not able to do something as simple as regrow some hair!

She shook her head. That was for tomorrow. For now... "Anyway, thank you." She went to fish for her boots and put them on, going downstairs then. She probably wouldn't have much to do, but she had a question. She looked for Blackmoor, and when she found him, asked "Say, is there a doctor in town?" After a small pause, she raised a hand "No, it's not for me. It's...curiosity for now." Well, it was a bit more than that, but she needed to know more before she could decide if the plan she had in mind was feasible.

[Mercy]

Saturday June 15th, 2075 1630, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle


Blackmoor nods. "Two, depending on what you need. Mama Lini uses her voodoo powers to help people, but if you are looking for medicine there is Doc Winston. He came from back East somewhere, but seems to know his stuff, nevertheless. He is a bit young for some folks' tastes, but I hear that the younger set likes him."

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 16:30, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1167

"Hmm." Cynthia nodded but didn't say much more than that. She doubted that Doc Winston would be able to meet the requirements of what she had in mind, but it never hurt to check. Though of course, that would have to wait some other time. When exactly, she didn't know, what with her going to New York in just a couple of days or so, but… Since it would depend on how things went regarding the farming stuff, she could afford to wait. Not that waiting was something she was good at, but considering she had plenty of things to keep her occupied, it probably wouldn't be a problem.

Though if she wanted to make her idea… her last idea to date… a reality, she would also need a lawyer. One whose focus was on corporations. That… Well, finding people like that wouldn't be that hard. Until she added some other requirements anyway. Like integrity, or the desire to work with - and for - a seventeen years old girl. And while she could imagine there were honest cops, honest lawyers? Not so much. After all, wasn't it their job to stretch the law into a pretzel? But like the doctor, it didn't matter until after the coming meeting.

Meeting she went back to prepare with a parting nod to Blackmoor and thanks. She sat in the living room, continuing her researches about farming and how much cotton and sugar cane could be worth nowadays. More precisely, she was looking at market state in and around Seattle for those two products.

~~~~~~~ OOC ~~~~~~~

Data search, farming, economics: 17d6t5 8 8d6t5 0 8d6t5 2, uh, let me edge that farming roll (even though I know that it's not really useful), limit of 6 on the data search.
Edge Farming: 8d6t5 2

So hopefully, Cynthia while not a professional, has some good understanding about farming and what could be reasonably expected from the fields (once she knows how much there are of those and their characteristics at least)

You know that it is tough to become an expert in farming or crop markets in a few minutes, even with the matrix at your disposal, so the best you can do right now is a good overview. There is a market for cotton, but it is a small one in Seattle, but the CAS has a greater need. If you had cotton cloth, though, the Seattle market would be more friendly to you, but still the CAS would be your biggest market. Seattle would have a good market for the processed sugar than for cotton.

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 16:40, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1168

That was pretty much what Cynthia had expected. Sugar could be used pretty easily, and pretty much anywhere, so finding a market for it was no big deal. Cotton though could only be sold to clothes producers. Of course, they could still learn that in addition to the fields, they - or the house to be precise - also owned everything needed to produce clothes. In fact, she didn't know anymore what would surprise her the most: if the answer was yes? If it was no? After a second or two to think about it, she shook her head, then got up. She could spend hours more on the subject and still not do more than scratch the surface. And since she didn't want to work the fields herself, what she knew already was enough for the time being.

So instead she went through the house, looking for something to do, poking her head in the kitchen to ask if everything was alright, then leaving quickly. Finally, after a couple of minutes, she went back to the living room and launched a puzzle game, one that wouldn't take too long but that she could stop whenever she wanted to anyway. It wouldn't be much more useful than walking aimlessly in the house, but at least she would enjoy herself until 16:00.

The kitchen is bustling and it looks like the cook has drafted some additional help for your dinner. Before long, Claudia and Sandy arrive in the living room with you and Blackmoor comes in to tell you that your guests are arriving.

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 16:55, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1169

When Blackmoor comes in, Cynthia nods and stands up "Thank you." She turned to the two other girls, and smiled a bit nervously "Alright then, let's do this." She led the way out of the living room then, to reach her guests… and try to see what they could do about the fields.

[Mercy]

Saturday June 15th, 2075 1655, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle


The other two smile as they stand and all three of you walk outside together. A group of about twenty adults and half that many children are waiting outside. A couple of large pavilions have been set up over a few tables and you see several of your maids milling about with trays of what looks like iced tea in their hands. The small crowd goes mostly silent when the three of you stand on the edge of the veranda and two men separate from the group and approach you. One is the man you had talked to earlier at the small village and the other is a very large, very muscular black man. They both stop at the bottom of the steps and remove their hats.

The black man is the first to speak. "Thank you, Misses, for the chance to meet here today to talk about the farms.'

[Imladir]

[Cynthia Rawson - 16:55, Saturday June 15th, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle] #1170

Cynthia took a few seconds to look at the scene, and nodded as both men came to greet them. "It's no problem at all." She paused for a second, then continued "I tried to learn a bit about farming, cotton and sugar cane, but it's probably not much. So how about you start by telling us what it the situation right now and what you're hoping we can do about it? That way maybe we can all get ideas on how to get there."

[Mercy]

Saturday June 15th, 2075 1800, Serenity, Cajun Town, Seattle


The two men smile and lead you to one of the tables, where they spend the next hour telling you about the crop situation. You find out that in the past, the cotton was picked and sent to the river village to be ginned and baled. Barges would come from upriver and carry the baled cotton off to be made into cloth. The sugar cane would be ground into raw sugar and sent downriver to be sold. In recent years, the owners of Serenity had been content to live off the past earnings and were not interested in keeping the fields going or in supporting the field workers and their families. You are told of some pretty severe hardships and how a number of the workers had left for other places.
