Monday Morning.
At six AM Gloria awoke in Piper's arms and stretched languidly. “Thank you Piper, that was the most delightfully unexpected night of discovery I have had in a while I really hope it wasn't just a one night stand.”
“Thank you Glory, and I am hoping we will be seeing more of each other, but I believe we have spent a rather pleasant evening seeing quite a lot of each other.” Piper said with a giggle.
“Indeed we did, but Tiff and I have to get home, we have things to do this morning, but this was soo worth it, thank you Piper, you and Max are amazing.” she drew the shorter raccoon into a kiss. Before pulling on her clothes.
“I'll get Y'all something ta eat.” Piper offered.
“No time I'm afraid, but thank you, you are a true southern Belle.” the badger said apologetically.
“Than I, shall go fetch your Vixen.” Piper grinned.
“Master Max,” Piper called softly entering his room. “Wake up call.” she trilled at seeing a very contented Vixen splayed across her master stepping over to the bed she caressed Tiffany's cheek until she slowly blinked awake.
“Oh, Morning Piper.”she smiled.
Mornin darlin, Glory sent me ta fetch ya, said y'all had places ta go and things ta do this mornin. Have a nice night?” she murred. The vixen nodded as she oozed slowly out of bed not disturbing the sleeping human.
“Oh Goddess Yes!” she sighed making her way into the living room where she had left her clothes.
“Damn Tiff you look like you had fun last night.” Gloria said as she drew her girlfriend into a hug.
“And ya Smell Well laid! Yeesh, did you go into heat last night?” the badger chuckled giving her a cockeyed glance.
“I think so, it was incredibly intense, he came all the way in me! Glory, actually stuck it in! I just about went out of my mind it was awesome.” The Vixen giggled “Thank you Piper for an amazing evening and I look forward to getting to know you both much better in the future. Max has pledged a bond of friendship, Glory, and I have accepted, he made it Very clear it's NOT claiming under the rites but if it's acceptable to you that as friends that maybe we could also be casual lovers as well?” the Vixen looked up at her badger who looked over at the raccoon who gave a nod of approval.
“Sounds fine ta me love. These are good folks I think a friendship with them would be a good thing, Sorry we have to take off early. Please explain it to Max and let him know that we will make it up to him next time. Thanks again for your wonderful hospitality Piper.” Glory kissed her warmly. Hugging the raccoon.
Piper sighed to herself. That, was a rather nice evening indeed, she thought seeing them on their way.
Francene Allgood drifted into work floating on a cloud of love. Her weekend with Frederick Farmen had been more of an unexpected love-fest than the mouse had ever planned upon. For she was well loved and filled with new memories and experiences. Returning to her wonderful love master Max and conquest sister Piper with a tail of love and passion worthy of a steamy romance novel. Did She have a deliciously erotic story to tell!
Gliding through the door she hummed a jaunty tune as she set about her morning routine making tea and checking correspondences.
“Morning Franny!” Piper called from above coming down the stairs to greet her conquest sister who looked incredibly happy this morning.
“Piper!” the mouse Squeed rushing to hug the raccoon. “Oh my goodness Do I have a story to tell you and Max What an Unexpected Weekend!” she laughed.
“Welcome home darlin that makes three of us sweet mousey I'll have ta tell Y'all about my adventure over at Pacific Pegasus Productions!” Piper squeed.
“Oh Piper, You did it! You actually did a screen test and everything? This calls for Tea! Tell me all about it.” The lovely lemony mouse demanded shepherding the raccoon into the kitchenette and installing her at the small table while she went about making morning tea.
“My weekend with Fred was far more passionate and revealing than even I would have ever expected, My goodness that man can really be surprisingly passionate for a person in his golden years. But I suppose there is something to be said for the longevity of humans, given us morphs at best have a fifty or sixty year lifespan, you and I would be in our prime. And I like to think enjoying this life to it's fullest.
“Oh indeed darlin. I am makin the mosta mah prime, I still can't believe I'm sayin it, but I am goin ta be a lil old Porn Star!” Piper laughed, “I'm twenty Sex, Might do this for five years, than maybe look to maybe try havin some kids iffin master Max would allow it. I would like them at some point in mah life,”
“That would entirely be your call Love Bandit, though I bet I know a handsome badger who would love to help give you some.” Max said joining his morphs. “Morning Franny have a good Weekend?”
“Good Morning Mister B! What a Weekend! I have a roll of film to develop. I only shot a Twelve shot roll in the SLR. Boy do I have an adventure to relate to you and Piper!” Franny beamed handing Max a cup of tea.
“Thank you Franny, standard 400 color film? ” Max asked.
“um, yes sir, I shot mostly digital got some intimate ones of Fred and myself, and one I'd like to make a couple prints from. If I could please?” the mouse asked her master.
“No problem, want me to run the processing and pull off a contact set for you?” Max asked his mousey.
“Thank you Mr B. I have a rather nice picture of Fred and myself I took as a memento that he thought it looked so nice he might like a copy for himself.” she smiled with a blush.
“Sure Franny, if you have your camera, we can upload them into the mainframe and print them out, I'd love to see what you got.” Max nodded
“Thank you sir, I...Fred talked me into doing...some modeling. Well posing.
“Oh?” Piper trilled her ears perking in interest. We still have to do a photo set posing riiiight sister?”
the raccoon trilled seductively. The lemony mouse blushed.
“Indeed we do.” Franny smiled at the raccoon. “And perhaps after hours we can work some time to set up an intimate little shoot for master Max.”
“”Thank ya Maxie, as for matchmakin with a certain badger... I will say, he definitely saw me as Motherhood material.” Piper smiled demurely. Franny gave Piper a loving smile touching her forearm
“Oh Piper, that's wonderful, Congratulations.” Franny Patted the Raccoon's arm fondly. Max tilted his head questioningly.
“Well I know when I told him that you were safe from accidental pregnancy he said if he decided to get you pregnant, it wouldn't be an accident. I guess that means you have definitely made an impression on him my dear.” Max smiled hoisting his teacup. “I guess we shall see what we shall see, I know we've talked about you wanting kids at some point and I am perfectly fine with that. Despite not being the marring kind myself, having you lovelies in my life works out fine for me. But what about you Franny, ever thought about starting a family of your own?”
“Actually mister B, like Piper I am in my prime, and still have some time to think about it. Back in Boston I had a few casual affairs, nothing serious, mind you; but only because I wasn't looking. I was being groomed to take over for my father as majordomo in running the Astoria Estate. But thanks to Winston's thoughtless indiscretion, they have forever lost this valuable highly trained and highly skilled resource. Their loss is my master's gain.
“Whoa, Running the entire operation? Not just for the household...” Piper asked.
“Correct. Overseeing the day to day operations of the main household, as well as the vacation properties, keeping track and setting up for all the various celebration and events and parties that occurred throughout the social seasons, maintaining the family guest lists, monitoring the society pages for any social faux-pas that may prove embarrassing. Budgeting the household accounts, maintaining a running knowledge of average costs for goods and services for things that may be needed. As well as basic investment and financial strategies for long term solvency. For example most mansions are kept in trust and have investment accounts that pay for all the taxes upkeep and maintenance from the profits of the investments so they cost the families nothing.” the mouse ticked off on her paws.
“Dang darlin we are gonna have ta talk on where I should stash the money I make from mah adult entertainment career other then stuff it in mah mattress.” Piper exclaimed.
“It would be a pleasure to advise you sister. And my services are always at Your disposal, master Max.”
“I...I had No idea Franny, My god I am soo sorry. You are so terribly underpaid for your incredible skill-set. I had no idea, once again I am a clueless idiot.” he chuckled shaking his head.
“No No, Please Master Max, you were the only one to give me a chance. For that I am forever grateful, and you Needed me! I can't tell you how wonderful that made me feel and... and you had Real Tea! I felt it was a sign. Besides I was sent a... rather generous stipend from Winston's father to make amends for his son's, Brashness, for, no one likes a scandal.” the mouse slowly smiled. “So I have been...well paid for. But. I am Now Yours and that unpleasantness has been washed away in your love. Master B, so now, I am in all things... Your mousy.” she smiled up at him.
“Thank you, Sweet Mousy mine. Did you know, you were the first Morph to walk through my doors? I Still remember that light blue sun dress you were wearing that day and your sunny yellow fur was just enchanting, you were like a breath of fresh air. And when you showed you knew how to make a proper pot of tea I almost hugged you! but didn't want to frighten you away. You were amazing and when you managed to sort out the mess that Marsha left the place. At that point I knew... and Now. Here we are.”
“Indeed we are. Looks like a quiet day, Here is my camera Mr B. I can't wait to tell you both about my adventures! I haven't had this much concentrated sex since my conquest!”
Max went to process the film and upload the digital images to the mainframe as the film processed he scrolled through the pictures, she had some very nice nature photography and a few, Hel-low! This must be the one she wanted printed, Franny sitting naked in Fred's lap with her arms around his neck. Very well composed for essentially an auto exposure selfie. A little color correction and this could be a very nice memento. He made the slight corrections needed to make the colors pop, and printed out two Five by Sevens and set them in simple studio frames. Then went and printed out a contact sheet for the color print film. Examining it she had at least one image in his professional opinion he would consider large print worthy. While the world of photography was moving into the electronic age he was still an adherent of the pure art. And this image his mouse snapped was Art. He printed out a Eight by Ten, Before returning to the girls.
“I believe these are the ones you wanted printed my dear sweet mouse.” he handed her the framed mementos.
“Oh Max, Thank you they are Wonderful! They came out better than I had hoped thank you.” Franny squeaked in elation.
“Dang darlin Y'all look downright naughty.” Piper grinned “Though Mister Fred don't seem ta mind one little bit now, does he?” she asked with a grin.
Franny blushed,
“Here is your contact sheet..” Max set down the set of images taken directly from the negatives from the film. “... and here is what I consider some poster worthy Art.” he set the eight by ten in front of his assistant. She froze, eyes wide slowly picking up the print in both hands just mesmerized at the image on the photograph. And she, captured, that image. Immortalized. For all time. A simple mouse morph, did...This.
“It's... it's amazing, it's...” she stammered.
“Art, Franny. That, is Art. And You made that. Well done my girl. Verry Well done.” Max beamed at the mouse who just looked up at him in shock. Soon it was replaced by a a slowly spreading grin as the reality sank in.
“Thank You. I... Mind if I give Fred a call and have him come down?” Franny asked.
“Not at all he can pick up his copy and if he would rather another size we can craft it for him while he waited, good idea Franny..” Max said as he and Piper compared notes on her Snoqualmie falls picture while she made her phone call.
Twenty five minutes later Fred Farmen was in the studio admiring the photograph, a wonderful memento. He was dressed casually in a short sleeved button down light green shirt and khaki dockers with tan loafers, the classic 'retired guy' attire. when the bell over the door sounded Fred gasped for standing in the doorway was a Gorgeous Skunkette who appeared to be in her early twenty's, wearing what could be best described as a modern take on a classic kimono in purple silk. Her long glossy black hair, hung loosely flowing around her shoulders, her bangs framing her bright blue eyes and a wonderful friendly smile.
“Pardon me please, but I was wondering if you good folks could possibly help me?” she asked, her voice, musical.
“Oh good lord, Suzy?” Fred asked in a hoarse whisper. The Skunkette slowly approached wonder painted on her face.
“My...My Grandmothers name was Suzy...Suzy Altos. I am her granddaughter. Sarah-fena. I came in search of the man who saved her life and changed her destiny. She told my mother and I of the great debt of gratitude we owe to this man that I chose to see if I could find him to tell him of the great things she had done with her life. Do any of you know a mister... Are You...You are mister Farmen, Freddy Farmen, aren't you sir?” The young Skunkette asked looking at the human very carefully, as if trying to match the reality standing before her with the myth and legend she had learned growing up told to her from her mother and grandmothers hand.
“Yes dear, I am Freddy Farmen and when I was sixteen I saved your grandmothers life after she was attacked by a group of hoodlums I nursed her back to health, cared for her, and... and loved her.” Fred paused and Franny lead him to the consultation area to sit. Offering a chair to the skunkett who sat across the table from the old human. “and then my mama tried to kill her for the sin of lovin me, but I tell you what, young lady!” Fred rapped the table with his knuckles. “Your Granny gave as good as she got by gum. Yes she did!and showed amazin restraint considerin she had teeth and claws at her disposal but chose not ta use em!” It was only when mama went for the kitchen knife that Suzy felt she had no choice left....” he paused Franny set a glass of water before him he took a long pull. And sighed heavily. Before reaching out and lightly touching the back of the skunkettes paws. And smiled.
“ Wellsir, Your Granny turned round and blasted my mama with every drop of skunk musk she could squeeze out then beet feet out the back door never ta be seen again!” Fred chuckled shaking his head. the Skunkette barked out an unexpected laugh. Covering her muzzle with her paws. As Fred continued.
“Mama didn't talk ta me for over Three months! And when she did she slammed the knife inta the table in fronta me and said 'It Never Happened!' and if she Ever caught me associating with another Morph, she'd publicly disown me. Well I tried ta find out where she went or what happened to her but never could. Back then it was a different time, folks really didn't like the idea of ...” Fred fell silent, the Skunkette nodded.
“I know... both my grandmother Suzy and my mother Allina told me what it was like back then. But, Grandma had a love of learning that was insatiable; you fed it, and it burned brightly her whole life. She instilled it in my mother, and she in turn instilled the love of learning in me, as well as the family debt of gratitude we owe to the man who's Unconditional love was never properly rewarded in my grandmother Suzy's time, or my mother Allina's time. So, this debt of honor, falls to me, Sarah-fena Altos, to repay the families obligation...”
