At first, I felt conspicuous hanging naked from the front of Vick's pants. I tried to cover myself but no one noticed me anyway so I relaxed. Instead, I just held onto Vick's pants so I wouldn't flop around too much.
We got to the theatre and despite my small size, I had a good view so I sat there and watched the movie. I was distracted however because I really wanted to reason with Vick but that wasn't happening. I could hear Jeff and Vick whispering as Jeff tried to explain fear to Vick.
Then Vick pointed to someone nearby and said, "That man wants to be a tree. Should I oblige him."
I looked at where Vick was pointing and there was a man who was very sad. He wasn't alone. His girlfriend was enjoying the horror film immensely but the man was miserable.
Jeff said, "I don't know yet. Let's look for additional signs of what he wants."
I was shocked that Vick listened to Jeff since Vick didn't seem to listen to anyone else. "Jeff, why are you letting him do this to me?"
Jeff started stroking me with his fingers and I'll admit that it felt very good. It felt like my entire body was one big erogenous zone and I was being masturbated. Jeff said, "Vick always knows what we want even if we don't and he just wants to make everyone happy."
I said, "But he listens to you. Why would you give him advice if he was always right."
Jeff said, "I didn't say he was always right. I said that he always knows. You can think of it like making a wish on a monkey's paw. Are you familiar with a monkey's paw wish?"
I said, "Yea, be careful what you wish for, you might just get it. A monkey's paw wish is when you get exactly what you wish for but something about the wish goes wrong. Usually it's because the wish is interpreted too literally."
Jeff said, "Well Vick is like a monkey's paw wish but a little different. Vick doesn't interpret wishes too literally but he can make mistakes when filling in the gaps."
I asked, "Gaps?"
Jeff explained, "Let's say you wished for a cake to appear in front of you. Do you know what ingredients you want in the cake? Do you know how long the cake should have been baked? Is the cake supposed to float in mid air or should a table appear beneath the cake to keep it from falling on the floor? When we fantasize about something we don't fantasize all the details. We don't plan out exactly how our fantasies are supposed to work, we don't consider the long term consequences, and we don't work out how our fantasies will interact with the real world. Those are the gaps in our fantasies. Vick is pretty good at filling in those gaps. He is extremely intelligent and very good at working out those details, consequences and interactions for us but he does sometimes make mistakes. Like that guy over there that wants to be a tree. Does he want to be a tree temporarily to get out of the current situation that is making him miserable or does he really want to be a tree for the rest of his life? Vick needs to figure that out before granting the man his secret desire."
I said, "He made a huge mistake with me. I don't want to be his dick."
Jeff said, "Yes you do. We've been watching you for sometime. You don't want to be a dick permanently but you do enjoy this. You're just scared and that's something I'm trying to explain to Vick. He knows what fear is because he's read the definition in a dictionary but he's never experienced fear. So he doesn't understand why you would protest so loudly against something you enjoy so much. It's also why Bruno and several others are afraid of Vick. Bruno is afraid of his own desires."
***** Meanwhile *****
On one side was an idyllic forest, the kind of forest one would imagine in a fantasy setting. On the other side was a road but not an ordinary road. This road was a thousand miles wide and a million miles long. In between the forest and the road stood a short old man. He looked like he was thousands of years old, all bent and wrinkled. He wore red and black.
While he stood there, he waited as a tall woman on a giant donkey arrived. The woman was slender and graceful with long, creamy hair. She wore a mostly white pant-suit but over this she also wore a long, light, open mage robe. Her clothes were mostly white but had blue moons and yellow stars in various places. Her name was Vive Cyoc. After she arrived and dismounted, the donkey shrank to a normal sized donkey and wandered off.
The short man spoke, "Thank you for coming. I am very concerned about Vick's activities. I think he is being abusive and should be stopped."
Vive said, "Vern Cyoc, I am frankly getting fed up with your attitude. You think that everyone who doesn't do things your way is being abusive."
Vern said, "But Vick has seduced a human to be his boyfriend. He's using Jeff."
Vive said, "Vick and Jeff are not boyfriends. They are just having fun together. You are just mad because you want Jeff turned into a female so you can use her. You've got it in your head that females are to be used and that it's somehow against nature for females to not want to be used."
Vern said, "No I don't think that way at all."
Vive said, "I'm a telepath just like you. I know how you think."
Vern said, "But I was right about Dewey and Jimmy. When a Cyoc seduces a human male, it's abusive."
Vive said, "You were right about Dewey and Jimmy but I already knew about them before you did and prevented that situation from being abusive. Besides, Dewey just needed time to mature a little. I will probably allow Dewey to see Jimmy again after Dewey has matured. As for you, you were demoted for a reason. I've noticed you lurking around interfering, trying to make a Cyoc's life go the way you want it to go. You need to live your own life and stop interfering with other Cyoc's or the ruling council will strip you of your power. Now go away."
