question to site director Marisa G. heade.

how goes the project with subject "Echidna?" also known as charlotte.

Dr. Heade: Fascinating, to say the least. She's...Fecund, to say the least. That woman has a sexual appetite nearly matching that of our subjects, even surpassing some of them, and we've found that her ability to reproduce is remarkable. She seems to bounce back from carrying test offspring to term in rapid fashion, and she's ready to go again shortly thereafter. We're really amazed, in all honesty. We've never had a baseline human subject as willing and able to breed as her.

any weird offspring mayhaps?
or all gooing as "intended"

Dr. Heade: For the most part, things are going as expected. There are some clear hybridization elements at play, such as hair and skin tone, but for the most part the subjects are still predominantly as their base genetic template intended.

Silverback related question:

General inquiry regarding how....off charlotte her mission loggd are.
Is she even regarded as competent?

Chiyaki: She's considered competent, but there are a lot of gaps and "missing time" errors that have to be accounted for. She's good at her job when she does it, but she spends so much of her time on her back, or her knees, that I usually just ignore those gaps when they come up.
Charlotte: HEY! I don't spend THAT much time doing...That.
Chiyaki: You literally had my cock down your throat an hour ago...As an apology for missing time on the Hudson assignment having to be cancelled! I didn't even ASK you to go down on me!
Charlotte: You looked stressed out...
Chiyaki:...Yeah, okay. That's fair.

To the C-Umbrella crew: Of the subjects, which breed is the most popular in the B.O.C. market - and which ones have the biggest population at the facility?

Dr. Heade: The most popular on the market? For general purpose companionship, we've seen significant spikes in both the Hunter and Suspendead lines. As for the most common? Baseline human-model Zombies. Once we corrected the mental and physical degradation without any severe or significant negative influences, the post-animate subjects proved the easiest to produce and maintain. They make up a reasonable portion of our staff.

Oh wow - I wasn't aware that C-Umbrella had zombies - but I guess if they've had the negative side effects have been negated or minimized, there wouldn't be too much difference between the Zombies and a regular human - or at least I wouldn't think so, but I'm not sure.

Dr. Heade, since you've been kind enough to respond - may I ask which line is your personal favorite? And I'd also like to understand more or less how the sale of the B.O.C.s works. There's some aspects of it has implications of "human" trafficking, but everything I've seen and read regarding C-Umbrella has indicated a high priority about the well-being and care of its creations and that the subjects are very much thinking, feeling individuals with free will.

Dr. Heade: Well, my personal favorite? Perhaps I'm a bit overly fond of her, but Ozmah, one of the experimental Tyrant/Zombie subjects. She's...Energetic, to say the very least. And I do have a love of a rough playmate with a sizable endowment.

On the matter of sales, all purchases go through perfectly legal circles. We have, through special connections with the U.N., been able to get provisions for the legal sale and market of our B.O.C. subjects. Special dispensation for what were once classed as "biological weapons" has been made, with the condition that they never be viable as weaponry. At least, not on the biological front. The issue of morality and free will is frequently addressed, but seeing as the genetic memory of the subjects is manipulated before concept to make sure that they're compliant removes some elements of the debate. Is it somewhat questionable? Perhaps. But the subjects have proven universally happy with their lot in life, as have our customers. They're not slaves; one of the conditions of their creation and sale is that they be awarded the freedoms of an independent being. Any offending parties responsible for abuse are held responsible by INTERPOL for their crimes. Needless to say, it's a matter we take very seriously.

Thank you for clarifying that for me - it's something I've been wondering on for a while... And hee. I could definitely see how Ozmah could be someone's favorite, given her relation to a certain lovely lady...

So, what are your thoughts on Magnolia and Sadie from the Spitter line? I think I've heard from one of her mothers that Magnolia calls you Aunt Mari.

Dr. Heade: Oh, yes. I do adore her...I can't say I'm surprised by her nature, considering her genetic parentage. As to the Spitter girls? I think they're delightful young ladies, and very pleasant to spend time with. They're just as energetic as the base model, and very playful. Very...Ah. Very playful, yes.

*Squints.* ...I am curious by what those ellipses imply, but don't want to pry.

Have there been any B.O.C.s that have been more troublesome to work with than others, either due to temperament or biological/anatomical issues? Or any lines that still have issues of one sort or another that need hammering out?

Dr. Heade: Feel free to ask, if you must. And yes, many. It's not uncommon for there to be issues, and many former B.O.W. lines have proven problematic. There are too many to go into any great detail, unfortunately, but I will say that one of the species taken from a different source, the Jabberwock B.O.W., has proven particularly troubling. Much, much too aggressive of a strain to try and control reliably, even with genetic programming. Thankfully, they aren't terribly prone to additional mutations, but the breed is extremely dangerous. We've definitely put an indefinite stop on any research involving that line. Several of the insect lines have proven equally troubling, mostly due to how...Alien...Their anatomy and mental faculties are. Not all, but many of them, seem to be unsuitable for conversion to a B.O.C. line.

Well then... What precisely have you gotten up to with the girls, then?

Also - yeesh, I could understand how those problems could be problematic... Are there any bird-based B.O.C.s that have been made or are in the works? Or anything particularly exotic or unusual that has come from the labs that wasn't expected to work out too well but did?

Dr. Heade: Well, ah...I think it's quite obvious that I've slept with them. More often than not, I've made us of their rather impressive tongues...And I find myself quite fond of Magnolia's sensitivity. She ended up a touch more sensitive to stimulation than we expected...Quite the screamer. She especially seems to appreciate the Proteus model. Sadie, meanwhile, is very fond of giving anal...I suspect due to the limitations of vaginal, given her anatomy.

And there haven't been very many actual Avian-based B.O.W.s to work from, though there have been anomalous ones. We DO have a group of Avis, or "Dac" subjects on-site. They're...Interesting, but not troublesome. Anything particularly exotic, though? The Molded-based lines were unusual, but have proven to be very interesting. Still a lot of experimentation to be done there.

Ahhh.... Well, I definitely could see how those tongues would be appealing... And good things to know about the young ladies.

And I... Vaguely remember what Dacs are supposed to be be like - but I can't remotely recall what Molded are, if I'd heard of them.

Dr. Heade: Indeed. They're exceptional young ladies. And Dacs are essentially avian-based B.O.W.s with major similarities to Pterosaurs. A coincidence; not a deliberate design choice if I recall. They were considered failures due to their significant fragility and difficulty to control. They were good for sudden, surprising attacks, but weren't easily trained for much else. Our resident population is pleasant enough; they've taken a shine to the subject identification "Harpy", though we obviously didn't want to associate them with negativity.

And the Molded are the fungal/human infection forms present in the Dulvey, Louisiana incident in 2017. More specifically referred to as the E-Type, in reference to the original source of the infection, Eveline. The predominant example would be Bea, also known as Big Mama. I'm assuming you've at least heard of her?

Ohh - I have heard of Bea, though not too familiar with her. And I'd definitely be curious to see the Dacs. They sound interesting - and I always love things that make references to Greek mythology.

Here's something that just occurred to me... There have been quite a few pregnancies - either subjects themselves, or staff and volunteers. Is there any particular goal with breeding the various B.O.C.s?

Dr. Heads: Primarily? To understand the process and how both humans and subjects handle their unique pregnancies. Also to make sure such pregnancies can be carried to term safely.

How many hybrids are there now, then? And are they going to be marketed in a manner similar to the subjects created in labs?

Dr. Heade: The number of hybrids is currently classified, but I'll say that it's greater than thirty. And no; that's not the point. We won't be breaking up families. Besides, custom-ordered genetic profiles are the standard.

That makes sense, and is something I'm happy to hear... Whatever happened with the male technician that Rosie got pregnant? How did that even work? And - if it's not too confidential, which of the subjects have proven the most... Prolific? Additionally, is there any idea about how common it is for the subjects and human staff to enter long-term, "committed" (not necessarily monogamous) relationships - and has that ever caused an issue with subjects that are set to go to a customer?

Dr. Heade: Ah, yes. Mr. Fitchner is doing quite well, despite the initial strangeness of the scenario. The pregnancies resulted in the birth of three near-duplicate creatures of an amorphous nature, sharing many traits with Rosie, including much of her personality programming. The triplets are still around, as they don't seem to be of a self-destructing, temporary nature like the secondary mutations Rosie created in the past. Mr. Fitchner expressed concerns, initially, but over time grew rather comfortable with the entire situation. Of course, he was somewhat distressed when his "cargo" triggered latent secondary mutations which have since manifested as permanent, including an extreme increase in estrogen and several biological changes. He still identifies as masculine, despite the loss of the ability to grow body hair, the growth of breasts and the more feminine build. We're not sure if another pregnancy from Rosie may result in further mutations to produce female genitalia, but we can verify that the female staff she impregnated have shown a permanent increase in bust and rear dimension, increased overall fertility (as they seem to be in a receptive state at all times now) and general sexual sensitivity. A fascinating result, but quite unexpected.

How it worked, though? The pregnancy formed a cyst-like cell within the lining of his stomach and neutralized acid production, while using nutrients gained through the parent eating and additional protein from sexual activity to mature. The body stopped processing food into waste, and instead used 100% of all ingested materials to help both sustain the "mother" and help the embryo to mature. An increased elasticity in both musculature and organ structure manifested as well, allowing the eventual birth to take place as expected, though an anal birthing took considerably longer than vaginal due to the additional "distance" the offspring had to travel. Thankfully, as stated, no waste existed at the time of birth, and the increased overall elasticity of both the intestinal tract and the anus meant that it was much easier than expected.

As for which subject has proven the most prolific as a breeder? One of the Eliminator subjects, Pearl, has proven to be very successful with our volunteer Charlotte, but by far the three most prolific have been the Dacs, Big Mama and the Cr-006 subject, Nautica. One of the Dac subjects, Zephyr, has produced a dozen eggs at this point since her creation seven years ago. They're quite fecund, though the eggs take a while to mature. She seems to be the "Alpha" of the group, and has thus far been one of only two in the group to breed. We're thinking about splitting the group to test flock dynamics and hierarchy, since they seem to fall into the roles instinctively, regardless of their personal stance on one another.

Big Mama has an unorthodox method of reproduction, wherein volunteer corpses (those bequeathed to us) or post-animate personnel volunteers can be inhabited by a portion of her fungal biomass. When that happens, the mold rapidly overtakes the body, rewiring systems to suit its needs and converting the corpse/zombie into a Molded form, though much more intelligent and in control of itself than the "feral" ones during the Dulvey incident. There are about fifteen such subjects on staff or in residence. They're semi-amorphous, having lost most of the tissue mass of the original body, but retain their personalities and memories. Consider it a form of reanimation for the dead, in that case.

Nautica is...Odd. A Crustacean subject, she was part of the same test series that lead to Viola, using a defunct/failed B.O.W. template from the records of Morpheus D. Duvall. Essentially humanoid, feminine upper form with a shelled, immobile crustacean lower half, she actually regularly reproduces with herself, or with other subjects and staff. The results are always the same, in that she births (live, and fully "mature") mer-creatures we've codenamed Torpedoes. They're exceptionally fast swimmers, have great resistance to pressure, and are a communal lot, serving to their mother's needs and proving to be quite helpful around the facility as a whole. We are starting to discover, however, that their lifespan is very limited; only a couple of years. They seem to understand this, though, and don't seem terribly upset by the revelation.

As for long-term relationships, we don't generally see a lot of "commitment", so to speak, since they've all been genetically programmed for pansexual behavior, as well as openness. We do see relationships form, and that's why we generally keep subjects created for a specific customer in stasis once they've matured. It keeps them from imprinting emotionally on other subjects or staff, and vice-versa. We have had incidents, however, and have had to take actions. Normally in the form of contracting the staff member as a "handler" for the new subject, and if that proves unacceptable...Well, there have been break-ups, unfortunately.

To the Gasketbinder Clan, what's your current opinion on the elven population? Are you a friend of the pointy ears or merely strangers, or perhaps enemies like so many other dwarven clans are?

So, Suzie, what do you do in your free time when you aren't sucking on popsicles messily?

To Captain Irtha Slatespire, how goes your town and ship duties? Anymore trouble with sand pirates or drunken hooligans?

To the lovely demon sisters.. What is your current favorite game to play with lusty mortals or do you prefer what the mortals wish or do you have no preference?

And finally, to screwloose. How is that ASS treating you? Still a favorite for humans to ogle at?

Olga: Oh, we love Elves. Most of 'em, at least. Lots o' diff'rent breeds from diff'rent places, aye? Friends wi' a lot o' Elven folk an' Elf-Kin. Only one or two breeds of 'em that I've e'er met tha' I dinnae get along wi'.
Ingrid: I've had a few run ins with less pleasant Elven folk, but mostly fine people. Sea Elves're nice. Wood Elves're also quite lovely. Tend t'have a slightly lower opinion of High Elves, only 'cause they tend t'be stuck up...Deep Elves an' Dark Elves c'n be very fun, though best if ye like "rough love", so t'speak.
Runiya: My tribe rarely has much to do with Elves, but we've never had a problem with those we've met. A lot of traders, really. So I think we're alright.

Susie: Oh, I spend a lot of time with my boyfriend Gunnar, and with my pets. Otherwise I just like to spend time with my family, visit with my friends in the Underground, and enjoy reading quite a lot. Ah...Not counting the "adult" things I get up to, y'know?

Irtha: Tch. Always trouble with pirates, love. Hooligans, too, but that's just sort o' expected, given where I live. Town's well enough, if ye consider a busy port always at risk o' bein' swept by a sandstorm a cozy home. Just enjoyin' my "retirement", not that I'm not dealin' with pirate huntin' anymore. Still spend plenty o' time with th' crew, though...Heh.

Twin Red: Oh, we have so many lovely games to play with mortals...I'm always fond of seeing if we can both fit into the same playmate. Sometimes from both ends, sometimes the same hole...
Twin Black: Depending on how small they are, sometimes we can manage to "kiss" in the middle...Mmm...
Twin Red: Otherwise, it's still a favorite to see where we can squeeze a playmate in...But you'd know about that, wouldn't you?

Screwloose: Of course. People love to look, but only a few get to touch. My husband has recently installed a few enhancements to allow for more pressure and a bit of additional stimulation internally. Needless to say, I can drain just about anyone dry in record time...If they're up for the challenge.

For any of the residents of Betty's Bizarre Bazaar: What's your favorite thing about the Bazaar - or favorite person to have fun with?

Poppy: All the old, beat-to-shit rides I get to tinker with! And uh...Hell, there's a lot of folks I like to play with.
Half-n-Half: Cocks. Big ones, small ones, cute ones, gnarly ones. All the fucking I can get, and plenty of booze to enjoy. Especially Prospero. UNF! Me likey!
Screwloose: My husband. For both counts.
Steve: Mireya...And Charlotte. Er...Mireya's my favorite person, and Charlotte's a close second. Same ranking for sex, I guess.
Stagger Lee: It's the closest thing I have to a home. Also pretty sweet on a certain Noodle-stand owner...

Heh... I can't say I'm surprised by some of those answers - and enjoy the broad range of answers.

To Poppy: Hey, what are you up to, lovely? I know a fella who's regularly got you on his mind!

To Half-n-Half: Have you ever encountered a cock you wanted to ride but couldn't for one reason or another?

To Screwloose: Who proposed to who, you or your hubby? I'm curious about those events!

To Steve: Heh... Not surprised to hear that... Sooo, how do you feel about the idea of being a family man, given how fecund Charlotte is?

Stagger Lee: I don't know a lot about Ghouls in your world. Until recently I'd been comparing them more to the undead - but Ghouls are alive? And can reproduce?

Poppy: Oh really? I'm sure y'do. Heh...And you know, same ol', same ol'. Dickin', workin', just enjoying life. A certain someone needs to come an' see me again soon, though...

Half-n-Half: Ooooh, yeah. A few. Sometimes too big, sometimes too...Weird. Met a couple of guys an' gals who had somethin' wrong with 'em, like radioactive jizz. That was a rough one; couldn't even make 'em blow with my tits and mouth, otherwise I'd have been in deep. Shame, too. She was soooo cute...But at least she got to enjoy a show an' blow her load at a safe distance! Otherwise, nah. I'm not gonna miss a chance to get turned out, baby.

Screwloose: I proposed to him. He was surprised; he didn't think I'd developed enough emotional complexity to process the concept. It was during one of my normal upgrades and maintenance cycles. Suppose it wasn't exactly the most romantic setting, but it felt right.

Steve: I uh...Well, she said she doesn't really need me to do anything other than visit, and the same goes for Mireya. So, like...I'm okay with it? It's a weird thing to think about. It's just not something I'd ever been too contemplative about.

Stagger: You kiddin'? Of course we're alive. Undead? Geez...Yeah, Ghouls are still alive, though not in the same way as humans. Radiation's pretty important to us. And as for reproduction? I mean...Some can, some can't. Hell, some Ghouls have their goodies fall off. Some of the Ghoul hookers I've known used to be male and just rolled with what happened to 'em. Just a matter of if they get enough rads to keep themselves together, so to speak, but not TOO Much. Otherwise they might go Feral.

For Poppy: II'll be sure to let him know... Now, here's a question - what was your wildest adventure in the Wastelands?

Half-n-Half: Heh... Well, at least there's you try to make people happy in some way, which is always good... Who do you like to to spend the most time with at the Bazaar? You mentioned that Prospero is a favorite, but anyone else?

Screwloose: Hey, sometimes you have to go with your feelings, no matter who you are... Soooo - did he say yes right away, and was there a proper wedding (or whatever passes for "proper" in a post-apocalyptic world)?

Steve: I can get that. I don't think Mireya has given too much thought to family planning either - but as much as you two spend time with Charlotte... Welp, you'll probably adjust. But anyway - how did you and Mireya end up at the Bazaar?

Stagger: Jeez.... Well, very glad that you're maintaining yourself pretty well, from what I understand. What would you say your biggest frustration with Ghoul life? Or the biggest benefit?

Poppy: Oh, crap. That's...Hard to say. I mean, I've done a LOT of stuff...Seen a lot of places, met a lotta folks, and ran "afoul" of a lot of critters. That's a super hard one. I think when I was running trade missions in Oregon and Washington, I probably had some of the weirdest encounters. I don't believe in ghosts, but I swear, some of those places out there have to be haunted. Also met a nice mutant fellow out there who knows how to show a girl a good time.

Half-n-Half: Well, I'm fond of a big ol' bull mutant girl named Chiyaki. Dick like a fuckin' baseball bat. Betty's always real sweet, especially if she's in the mood to collar me up and show me a good time. Stagger's a good drinkin' buddy, and the robots at the bar can be really nice if you're looking for some weird sex.

Screwloose: He said yes. Betty saw to our wedding, since there's nobody who really does that these days, and he isn't religious. Then we spent a week enjoying our honeymoon and my newest upgrades.

Steve: Mireya, I'm not so sure. She doesn't talk too much about her past, I think she doesn't like to so much. Me, I was a merchant trader, running with caravans after I grew up as a Bandit. I found my way to the Bazaar, and just...Liked the place. So here I am, yeah?

Stagger: Biggest benefit is being immune to rads. Makes it easy to go anywhere I want, so to speak. An' when it comes down to it, rads can heal me up. Better than stims. And the biggest downer? Never being able to have sex without my partner needing multiple doses of anti-rads. At least the ladies I spend most of my time with aren't shy about their interest, and don't mind a couple of pills or popping in an IV. But I wish they didn't have to...And of course the fact that I know I'm going to outlive everyone I care about, pretty much.

To Poppy: You have lived a pretty wild, fascinating life... I'd definitely like to hear some more of the stories.... Wait, don't mutants become somewhat... Asexual... In the Wastelands? Or, wait, I might be thinking of the wrong thing... Please correct me if I'm wrong about what you're referring to, because I'm thinking of someone along the lines of Betty.

To Half-n-Half: Pfft... I've heard about Chiyaki and some of the shenanigans you've gotten up to with her, and not too surprising about the others... Any one that you don't get on well with at the Bazaar, then?

To Screwloose: Aw... That's nice... Dare I ask what type of upgrades? And I know, in the past, you've wanted to get a Synth body as an alternative - do you still want that?

To Steve: There you are, and I'm sure there are plenty of folks that are happy for it... Definitely Mireya, who I do have some more details on. Think it's mostly family issues.
But anyway, that kind of leads me to my next question, but first....

To Stagger: Jeez... Pretty solid pros, but the cons are pretty fucking downers, no argument. At least there are some people that are probably going to be around with you, like robots, Betty, other Ghouls, but everyone else... That's rough, and I can't imagine having to go through that...

Hopefully on a lighter note, Steve and Stagger: How did you guys get to know each other? How often have you done work together? And... WELP, gonna dive right into this question: Have you guys ever done any other "things" together outside of that one job you two had with Prospero and Dulcine?

Poppy: Oh, sweet cheeks, "Mutant" can mean anything fucked up by rads, F.E.S. or anomalies. Look at Half-n-Half; she's technically a mutant. The freaky glowing eye, the dick, the midget-size. Cute as a bug, though...Great fuck, too.

Half-n-Hal: Awww...Thanks, honey! Don't forget the KEEE-RAY-ZEE, though! Hee...Remind me to suck your cock later, Pop-Pop. Or pin you down and fuck you stupid. Or buy you some sweets and a bottle of beer. I'unno! SOMETHING! And for the folks at the Bazaar? Couple of bandits who're in and out bug me, since I used to run with 'em. They always come in and start trouble. Last time I saw 'em, I shot one in the ass, though. So there's that. And a guy made fun of my height a while back, so I bit his nipple off...Um...And there's this really rough guy who got off on beating me up. I didn't mind it too much, but Betty got REALLY mad and made him disappear after he broke my arm. Sex was nice, though.

Screwloose: Oh, you know...Higher-grade lubricant dispensers. Additional pleasure simulators for me. Bumped up the softness and size of my ass just a touch, because he likes the squishiness. And you know, I'm not sure. It's not too important, I think. People seem to love me the way I am, so maybe it's not such a big deal anymore...Still, it might be nice.

Stagger: Yeah...Well. No stranger to loss at this point. Been around so long, you get used to it...A bit, at least. Still, being able to take a walk through a rad-field to have first dibs at whatever's burning away at the heart of it is always nice. You wouldn't believe some of the crap that's been left unattended since the war. Just have to de-rad everything before I try to sell it, which can be a bit of a hassle. And I can't really come into town for a few days after a jaunt.

Steve: Scavenging! It was back when I was a roaming merchant. Ran into a group of bandits who didn't take to my "colors", since I wasn't one of theirs. They drew down on me and tried to take me out. I ended up bunkered down for four hours in an abandoned military convoy crash site. I had tons of guns and ammo, but they had a lot of guys. They were hoping to smoke me out. Turned out Stagger was looking for the guys because they owed him money.

Stagger: Yeah. Fuckers didn't want to pay up, and were thinking they could just skip out on it entirely if they left the town I was in at the time. Stupid pricks went and started a fire fight you could hear for miles. So, I show up and spot about three-dozen of these goons surrounding a bunch of wrecked trucks on a highway overpass. They're taking shots, someone keeps popping back. I figure "shit, if they're shooting at someone, then they must be just the right kind of annoying", and decide to say fuck it. So when they aren't looking, I sneak up on one of their boys and pop him through the lower back. They don't even hear it 'cause of their own shooting. He's dead, and I take his belt...Which is full of grenades. I pull a couple of pins and lob 'em down range into the cluster of cars they're hiding behind, and-

Steve: HEYOOOOOOO! Mushroom Cloud city. After the cars cooked off, I pop my head up and see this sharp-dressed motherfucker going around, mopping up the survivors and wounded. After that, we were fast friends.

Stagger: We work together pretty regularly. He's a great distraction, and I'm a damn good shot.

Steve: And uh...As to the other stuff...

Stagger: Often enough. He's immune to rads, for the most part. Nice getting to bareback sometimes.

Steve: Dude, come on.

Stagger: No, cum in.

Steve: DUDE!

And for the Inkblot Folks: What's the strangest sexcapage to happen at the Flower Pot?

Petunia: Ooooh, my...That...Is a hell of a question, sweet cheeks. You'd probably have to ask each of us individually, if you wanted a really accurate accounting...Heh...Personally, I've seen a HELL of a lot of play. I think for Cat, though, it'd be the time she put on a show with one of her "regulars" in the Bar area, a Dragon 'toon. Ever seen that old Reluctant Dragon cartoon? Fella like that. Let's just say Cat really proved she's not shy about gettin' a good stretching, and that even when she's overloaded she still keeps tryin'. THAT was a hell of a sight to see...Of course, you're aware how...Stretchy she is, right? I know I am.

Oh dear... Yeah, I am aware of how stretchy she is... Oomph.

Okay then - as far as Inkblot, I know that there's some... Animosity... Between yourself and a few other major players in town - but I'm curious if there are any that you get on reasonably well with?

Petunia: No other questions about what the rest of us have gotten up to? Hah...Well, on to the other question...I suppose I still get along well enough with Nighting-...Er...The Blank. We have somethin' of a begrudging respect, and don't interfere with each other that much. There's also the Spider Witch over in Lonesome Town...I don't necessarily get along with her, but I don't mind her, either. Her part of town is closer to mine than I'd like, but...Well, you know how it is when you're dealing with a Red Light District. There's also a small group of Anime prostitutes who refuse to work for me, or by my rules, but don't want to move outta my part of town. They're nice enough, and don't cut into my overhead too much or nothin'.

Heh... Well, I wouldn't say I don't have any other questions - but that one occurred to me and I had to ask...

Okay, then - what about you and your wife? What's the most interesting or strange thing you two have gotten up to together?

Petunia: Oh, geez...We get up to a LOT, honestly. Me more than her, of course...But I'd say one of the weirdest we got into together was a party for some rather well known Toons, looking to blow off some steam in some...Interesting ways. About a dozen very famous and well known fellows and ladies, looking for some kinky fun. A.J. ended up having a train run on her, while I was asked to dom the fella who paid for the party while he was in drag. Pretty cute in drag, to be honest; pretty little blue dress, blonde wig, make-up, the whole nine yards. He wanted me to pound him while he watched A.J. get fucked, then wanted us both to dom him while the others watched. Some of them were a lot more twisted than we expected. Especially the Pig; he wanted to be whipped while he worshipped out feet and we talked down to him. It was me, A.J., and three of the girls. They paid a lot for our services, and it was a little weird, but it's nice to have return customers...The bunny especially comes by pretty often, usually in drag again. Apparently he really gets off on that. I don't even mind when he tries to get customers to bed him, as long as he gives us a cut. He can pass for one of the girls if he tries, but I think he normally gets picked up because people recognize him, y'know?

Welp... I think I have an idea of who you're referring to on at least two of those parties, and... Well, damn. Somewhat unexpected, but... Well, I remember some of your "Souvenirs" from your desk, so maybe not as surprising as it could be.

This makes me have to ask - Inkblot is the place where obscure, mostly forgotten creations go - how do the more popular, well known cartoons and fictional characters get there?

Petunia: Oh, sweetie, Toon logic. Toons, or at least a lot of them, know they're Toons, right? It's obvious, when they break the fourth wall. When it comes to more "serious" beings, who might not realize it and might not be able to bend the rules of reality like, say, a certain rabbit and friends...Well, they just sort of find a way. There are thin spots, holes in reality, that can have some bleed. It all depends on where they come from. Magic in some cases, technology in others, dumb luck for most. But in the case of Toons as you know 'em? Hell, some just paint a hole on a wall and step through. I seem to remember a certain pretty little thing getting dicked down nice and hard after slipping through a gateway to my place...Don't you, honey?
