Three cuddly things were snuggled up to various parts of my anatomy. It was too soon to open my eyes, as I didn't want to dispell the wish I had that they were 3 seperate, willing women. Thus, stillness and deep breathing was to remain my cover for the moment.

Let's see if I can figure out what's going on. More doggone plots around here than in a new cemetary. Hmm. BabySub is now Mobius' kitten slave, but she's gone AWOL. Myya is tracable into the Wizard's room, up to a spot; then she disappears. I rescue a lady in distress, somehow contact with her CHANGES me after causing a *hellacious* headache, the remnants of which still echo between my ears. In spite of whatever happened in the night, and, perhaps, *some* sleep, anyway. I still need a bit of 'the hair of the dog' to clear my head.

"Dee?" "Yes, beloved?" "Could you bring me a tall glass of ice cold 'hair of the dog'? That's a" that's a far as I got. "Yes dear. I don't prepare it for you often, but when you ask, you need it. About 5 minutes dear, I'm not near the Gin." "But Dee, that's ridiculous! There's a bottle right here in my room!" "Yes dear, I know; unfortunately I'm outside with the dogs." "Errr...Right. Outside dogs." "I'll hurry, old dear one."

Wait a minute. I just SPOKE with my beloved Dee. I thought she would be one of the ladies on the bed here. But she's not. She's outside. But I just spoke with her in a whisper. And heard her answer. Yah.

I shelved that topic fairly quickly, as that way lies madness. I'm sure when I really wake up this will all make sense. Or perhaps I'll be chasing a rabbit with a big hat and pocket watch. Too much, too fast. Putting my mind in neutral, I endeavored to return to sleep.

Way too soon, I felt a delicate touch on my calf. I whispered, "Who's there?" and it turned out to be Dee with my hangover remedy. She placed a pill in my hand; I could feel the 'B' of the aspirin, and swallowed it down dry. Then I felt the poke of the B12+ shot, and last the cold glass was placed in my hand, full of a silver gin fizz. I finished downing 'the hair of the dog', and thanked Dee. She silently dashed out of the room. Glancing at the clock, I saw it was ten. Morning or evening however, I had no idea. Lifting my head, I saw Elizabeth in all her glory, sound asleep on her back. I saw Ruby in a similar position, and also a truly unusual face... nearly elfin. Petite and pretty. Blonde was likely her natural color, but not this blonde. Closer to a honey blonde would make her stunning.

Very quietly, I whispered, "Who are you, my dear?"

She answered she was called "littleslut".

"And are you?"

"Indeed, Lord, at times I am. I love every kind of sex I've tried, and I've researched for myself to prove I've tried every kind."

"Too early in the morning for a riddle; you sound like the Cheshire Cat, my dear. Come closer and show me some of your abilities." She did so, amazingly for me, as she showed me four times. Hmm. Something is rotten in the state of Denmark here.

Let's see: extra hands I don't have, talking to people not in my presence (and hearing them respond!), hearing the thoughts of that Jade person, now 4 orgasms in what, half an hour? I hate to do this, but it's time for Ruby and Elizabeth to supply me some answers.

I rolled over and nibbled Ruby on the nipple, gently, so she'd just waken. Her eyes flew open and softened when she noted my smile. Leaving her to finish waking, I rolled over to do the same to Elizabeth; her reflexes were just a little different. Sadly for me, that is. Her hand was instantly awake, and had an affinity for my closing my windpipe at the moment. Eyes clearing, she saw my delicate shade of blue, and released me at once.

One more to add ot the list. It stopped hurting as soon as she released me. I mean no residual pain at ALL. And I never bruised; I checked later. Another anomoly.

After everyone had taken care of that first urgent morning need, I gathered them together again.

"Ladies, I have always stated I will believe 3 impossible things before breakfast. I've counted six today, and those are only the ones I've managed to figure out by experience. At this point, somebody owes me an explaination!"
