FYI/PLOT.
This story is from a 2nd person perspective but I might shift into 3rd at certain points. Whether you like to see the main character as "You" or an NPC is up to the reader.
It takes place in an alternative universe where humanity transitions into a new form through the means of genetic engineering.
While some prefer to keep or maintain their natural form (to the extent of protests and revolt against government policies), others are more than happy to 'donate' their body to 'science'!
The vast majority of the population has adopted 1 or more 'mutations and modifications' to their genetic code. Usually, in the form of minor tweaks or additions to their DNA, others are more 'progressive/experimental or as the resistance likes to call them: "Mod Junkies, freaks mutts and Animals".
These range from 'kemonomimi to full-blown furrys'. What used to be mere fiction and fantasy little more than a century back became an inevitable reality over the last few decades, much to the despair of the "Pure Breds" (The resistance, who insist on keeping humans "Human").
The developments in both the scientific and the fields of biology are progressing exponentially.
In part due to the development and implementation of A.I. along with the growing number of 'test subjects' although companies tend to prefer terms such as volunteers, or their latest marketing term: Furry's, The Pioneers in the next step of human evolution.
While most of the modifications are legalized and government-controlled and implemented by a select few companies there are some alternative 'black market' mods available for those that know were to look.
Although most of the 'illegal' part comes from the lack of research and testing which usually comes from the government-selected and therefore legislated companies.
One such company is "Slut.Co" a Mega Corp that has solidified and dominated the industry due to its monopoly privilege, if you had to pick a company that had all its success to tank due to capitalism it's them.
What started as a hook-up-app, became a worldwide 'escort service' known for its wide variety of options. Anyone, anywhere in the world is able to order an escort as if it were a "Build-a-bear-Russian-mail-bride" which to no one's surprise dominated the industry.
Down from the simplest kinks and fetishes, ranging from the variety of blondes, brunettes, ravens or redheads and all the other colors a rainbow could provide. Whether you liked natural eyes or boobies or artificial.
A petite sub or an dommy-mommy. You could even turn your amazonian warrior queen into a submissive slave, or your fair princess into a girl gone wild.
Over the years their business seemed to stagnate.. not that they had anything to complain about, they dwarfed the competition by far.. if any, most of them got swallowed and reformed by the megacorp or failed to stand a chance to get any kind of foothold on the market.
However, this still disturbed the perfectionistic CEO and their insatiable hunger for wealth. Newspapers and artists often referred or depicted them as new age "Scrooge McDuck", wich fast-forward to this day was little from reality as they'd gained a Duck mod or two..
All of this was made possible due to their expertise in marketing and modding (and their massive investments into research for gene modding). They were allowed to set up their own practice in the name of science and began research of their own.
Long story short.. With bottomless pockets and the greatest minds and computers it was not nature that found a way.. but Slut.co
Corporate greed drove them into targeting any part of the population they could and started providing mods and services for the biggest and smallest niches of clientele.
Thus the company rapidly branched of into various child companies such as Bouncy-Bunny, Puppy-and-me, Aviana-Wings, Aqua-Drome, and Build-A-Bull (incorporated).
One of their latest additions is: M.A.R.E.inc. But things didn't stop there.. They wanted to be able to sell mods, services, and goods all parts of civilization. Not just target the adult industry but young and old alike, they wanted to reform and controll the world, and to do this the future ceo-overlord
a.k.a. "Scrooge" knew they had to get a foothold in politics to push their own agenda and so they pressed for reforms in law, and financed the research necesary to create a new reality that would shape the future of humanity.
While the government was more than happy to receive their share of wealth it had come to a point where it became imposible to stop the corporate greed, as they'd accumilated not just an army of supporters but a millita itself, while it never came to an actual war or insurgency.. our 'infamous scrooge' became a 'benevolent' dictator. Benevolent as they still allow public votes and rights, the only changes are the enforcement of legislations in favour of their own needs and desires. These developments all started out in their home country, soon the international market.
And to no ones surprice their political interest followed suit, as of today they are considered "King of the world".
Now that you know the general world setting we can begin our journey. The main character (You/They):
Start out as a female in her 20's with long ass-length hair complimented by your bright blue eyes and a lite physique, a look reminiscent of Rapunzel.
A nickname your friends often refer to you with, officially your passport reads: "Aeylin Faith, Female 24-caucasian, 184cm (6'0.5") citizen of Iraleth.
You currently rock some cute B-cup's about the size of fine mandarins or a small (yet beautiful) Orange, however most of the male..and female gaze is drawn to your ample butt which sways elegantly from side to side. As if sculpted by the devine it's complimented by your well-toned thighs and long legs, if you'd had the confidence you'd make a fine model for the catwalk, today your neighbors treat the trottoir you Strutt on as such.. Hastily you make your way inside, all these prying eyes are not meant for your poor introverted brain and anxious heart. You huff a relieving sigh as the lock clicks closed and you drop the backpack of your shoulders, finally relieved from the weight of your heavy college books. As you take of your shoes and put them on the industrial-styled shoe rack you slip into your fluffy loafers, each adorned with floppy rabbit ears and button noses. If it were a weekday you'd take the bag upstairs but you'll do so later during the weekend. It's Friday around 7 pm and you deserve to rest. Besides, you could use a drink or two, and you haven't had dinner yet so you make your way up the slim stairway of your apartment. Your entire "house block" consists of all these small apartments, they remind you of the houses you've seen in the book "The streets of Amsterdam" which is likely where the architect took inspiration from. They are perfect for 1 or 2-person-sized families and college students, especially located close to public transportation and close proximity to the city center and factories neighboring the city itself.
The nature of Iraleth forces things to be clustered together, cities formed around oases, lakes, and rivers as the mountain ranges in the north-eastern hemisphere separate its major cities and the deserts in the south create it's own unhabitable zones where only one major city and yourself reside "Iraleth's eye", a vast oasis city, canals dug in ring shapes reminiscent of 'Atlantis'. Over the years you've noticed many inspirations in the city's architecture drawn from books yet given their own twist and creative vision. While the climate in the city is fairly humid and tame (due to the "Sun-dome", a glass coupe that encases the entire city, the main reason why the city remains to this day as it functions as a miniature biome. The glass can be tinted when the sun's rays prove unforgivingly harsh and the pollution levels are filtered by massive vans located at the outskirts of the dome. Artificial rain or fog ensures perfect humidity for both the ecosystem and its inhabitants. With the only way in or out of the system being the hyper-speed train most residents permanently remain within "The eye", after all the eye sees and provides all..
Your thoughts come back to the present as you open your fridge and find yourself staring at the empty top shelf to once again realize you need to remember to stock up your beer shelf before the weekend starts and not after. Maybe that's for the better.. alcohol isn't the best type of medication after all, even though a drink or two couldn't hurt.. too much?
*PICK: (I might eliminate or add other options/paths) for now just 1 :)
BEER - Hack the system and flash cool some beer with an ice trick.
RUM - A pirate's life for me, drunk up me hearties yo-ho!
WHISKEY - Smell is everything but what today.. Scotch or Bourbon..
WHINE - and dine, I'm ffff..fancy!
WATER - is love, water is life.
