Peer Review

You already know about my study into hotness. What you don't know is that the universe apparently wanted it peer-reviewed, because right on cue I got an invite to The Continental, for the next edition of VII Sins. This one was called Lust.

Now, I'm no stranger to sin. I just pick mine carefully. In fact I only really have the one. Vanity. Very manageable, very on-brand, mostly harmless.

Lust, though, didn't immediately register as relevant to my research, until someone mentioned in passing that the Baths of Tragan, where the event was held, are also known around The Continental as the Fuck Oven. Which, obviously, changed things. An oven implies heat. Heat implies hotness. Hotness is my whole field of study. I had to go, purely for science.

Dresscode was gold and red, less rather than more, so I found something that technically qualified as clothing and headed over.

The temperature was hot. The air was humid. And yes, I have to report: lust was, in fact, everywhere. It's always nice seeing familiar faces at these things. We swapped a few code words just in case, traded some tips and tricks, the usual. It's a supportive community. I feel very held.

From there I mostly just... indulged. And learned, once again, how little it takes to get seduced in a setting like that. It started low-key, Lola pulling me into a dance. The space by the pool isn't exactly generous, so there was the occasional touch, an apologetic smile, a glance held a beat too long. Then her partner Kirikou appeared, and it didn't take long before I understood exactly what was happening, with me conveniently positioned right in the middle of it.

The rooms and corners around us started producing sounds that suggested a very good night for everyone involved, and the pool was going to need attention in the morning. My girl Peanut wandered in not long after, which made us four, and from there it was less a scene and more a full ensemble piece, everybody trading places by the water.

I woke up the next day feeling pretty great, all things considered, and had to admit I hadn't paid much attention to the actual study material. So. Anyone want to help me go through the photos?
