If this was going to be a raunchy party, Ryan wasn't going to beat around the bush. He punched in the address of Condoms-and-More into his phone, and quickly made the several block hike down to the seedier part of town.
He was a little surprised to see the trucks of several frat members in their driveway. Walking inside, he saw a few familiar faces arguing over toga sheets in the back. Well at least he wasn't the only one who needed to get a costume last minute.
He hadn't been to this particular shop before. TFU's house parties usually got pretty out of hand, and some drunkard occasionally ended up pantsless by the end of the night. Hopefully he could find something that wasn't too expli-
"Can I help you?" A middle-aged clerk in a leather jacket looked up from his magazine behind the front counter.
Ryan blinked, "Oh! Uh, I'm looking for a costume." He scanned the shop. There was an aisle dedicated to condoms, a few different variety of sex toys, and some aisle with a leather-harnessed mannequin as an end cap. "It's Halloween soon."
The clerk tilted his head, "This isn't a costume shop. There's like, role play stuff on the back wall? Most of its just cheerleader outfits though." He scratched one of his sideburns, "There's a few couples outfits that might have a guy-half? You'll have to buy both though."
Ryan gulped, "Err, I heard you rented togas?"
The clerk laughed, "Oh, you're with the frat guys! Why didn't you just say so?" He pointed casually, "They're over there." He leaned back in his seat, resuming his magazine reading.
"Thanks." Ryan turned, heading deeper into the shop. Judging from all the commotion, it sounded like they already might be pretty short on togas. Hopefully he'd be able to find something here.
The store was surprisingly big. Even if the togas were sold out, he might be able to throw together some sort of leather-daddy getup? Might be kind of expensive... Maybe he could get away with a collar and leash? Ryan started perusing the store, looking for anything promising before joining his friends over at the togas. Just as he was about to give up though, he bumped into something odd.
Smack dab in the middle of the dildo and flashlight aisle was a lifeless blow up doll. This one wasn't your typical vaguely blond and vaguely female shape though. It looked like a guy... and it looked like him?
The skin tone was right, it had his same jet-black hair, and the painted on eyes were even the same right shade of green. Ryan could see why it was on this aisle, the mouth was stuck in a large O shape, and there was a sizable piece of plastic perked up between its legs. Still, the resemblance of this thing was uncanny. He was almost considering buying it, just for kicks. Maybe it could come in handy tonight if he wanted a body-double for some embarrassing stunt they tried putting the pledges through?
He fidgeted with the plastic valve on the stomach, only to realize it was stuck firmly in the closed position. That was weird... He turned the toy over in his hands a bit more, only to discover there was a large silver zipper on the toy's back.
The costume's back.
Oh geez. So much for the clerk knowing his inventory. If he wore this, it was definitely going to be one of *those* parties.
