Another different idea.

(May 5th) Oh Christ, my writing got longer. Anyways to cover all 92 days or so, I will have interactions of a lot of mamono. It would be like that story made specifically to have interaction for every mamono, except I might actually pull it off. Anyways ciao.

Journal Entry #1

My name is Anna. I am a human female. This a really awkward way to start my journal. At least it will keep me interested while in Antartica though. Heard the wifi can get spotty.

If anyone ever finds this, the person reading has obviously been snooping around. Probably my brother again. If that's you, Danny, close this before I slap you on the face. If it's not, then don't worry about the slap. It's just that my brother can go to such lengths to touch my stuff purely just to bug me...

Anyways, I obviously did something right this school year, because I got a grant from a big organization. Wooh! Unfortunately, to get the grant, I have to spend like 3 months at this facility at the south pole to help out with research. Six if I want to double how much I get. Now, not many would want to go down there, even for college money.

Then again, not many have been offered 200 thousand for just 3 months down there. Hehe...

So yeah I accepted it me. I'll probably read my own writing later and regret it...

I'm writing at the airport now. I'm supposed to wait for these escorts or something to the private jet to fly me there...oh I think that's them now. They have big fancy suits on. Bye for now.

I put away my journal as two men in butler clothing came about and bowed. I waved, but they said nothing and simple gestured to follow them. "Oh, ok." I got up and extended the handle to my travel bag, walking behind the two men. They lead me down the terminal, into a car that took me to the private jet parked in front of the hanger. Soon, I was quickly on the plane, in the air and on my way to Antarctica. "This feels weird pampering me right before I go into a probably freezing place..." I mumbled to myself as a butler walked beside me. "Would you like anything madam Anna?" he said, holding a notepad and a fancy looking pen. "Em...do you serve any pasta with marinara sauce?"

"It shall come out to you in a second," the butler responded as he went in the back. Not a minute later he had come back with a steaming hot plate of spaghetti with meatballs and marinara sauce and placed it down on a table that was in front of me. "Thank y-" I stopped because he had suddenly disappeared. My guess was that he was just one of those butlers that are good at their job but you can never find them. Not that it mattered. There was a nice plate of pasta in front of me! Now that I noticed, a Marvel movie was playing on the tv above me a few feet away. They were really trying to pamper me.

Between the movies and food, it was a while until I noticed ice forming on the windows. I looked out as I saw the ocean give away to the ice caps and snowy desert tundra that was Antarctica. A sense of loneliness came over me, as I realized I would be spending the next three months in this landscape. I hoped that there were other people with me, or at least a pet or game console or something to keep me busy. The jet started descending onto a runway I recognized only by the layer of salt and the tire tracks. After a surprisingly smooth landing, the door opened and the stairs extended down. The butler helped me off the plane, then immediately closed the door once I was all the way down the steps.

"Wait, aren't you coming with me?" I asked.

"Good luck madam!" Was the first and only time he spoke anything. Almost immediately the jet's side engines started again. Panicking, I started running back up the steps, but the plane had already started moving. At that moment, it was already off and in the sky, leaving me stranded on a runway with almost nothing surrounding it.

Scratch that. I just took a look around and there is literally nothing. Oh god...

"Anyone?" I screamed out to nothing. I was waiting for at least some response, but nothing came. Not even the threating roar of squeal of some antarctic mammal. I was completely alone. Frustrated, I yeeted my suitcase with all my might away, then chase after it. I thought I was going to die, so I might as well throw a fit while I was already in my winter clothing. I went to pick up my suitcase to throw it again, but then I saw something beside it. It was a metal door, the kind you would find on a submarine in a movie. "What the fuck?" I took a step to it, stopping when I heard the familiar crunch of a mix of a cobblestone walkway and pebbles. Using the feet to dust away the layer of snow, I saw that there was a path here. Someone had forgotten to clear it.

"Or something..." I said to myself. Then laughed. This wasn't a movie! That couldn't happen! Sure I'm probably stranded here and the whole grant thing could have been a lie, but surely it couldn't be that ridiculous. Good to have a sense of humor though. Almost makes me forget that I'm probably going to die out here and I'm underreacting.

Turning the metal wheel, I pulled open the door, hearing it open with a creak. Inside was a walkway that went south, reachable by only 10 steps down inside. Picking up my suitcase, I dusted it off and went down, hearing the door close behind me. Before I was in complete darkness, lights on the walls came on, lighting my way down the hallway. I continued walking down, jumping apprehensively at every tiny noise that went on. Soon I arrived at a door called "Barracks". Opening it, I saw nothing but a light switch. Turning it on, I gasped at what I saw.

It was much like a bedroom, except much bigger than that. Beside the bed, there was a workspace with an already working computer, a bathroom on the other side, and a door to the kitchen to eat. It all looked freshly updated and painted, like a hotel before the next guests come in. I spent about an hour looking around at everything until I noticed the letter sitting on the keyboard. I picked it up and read it.

Dear Anna S., you have been chosen as this year's participant in the Antarctic sector of the grant. Congratulations! You will spend the next few months working in close proximity to the inhabitants of the facility. On the back are directions to the next letter, which go in further detail. Remember, before arriving, you have signed a waiver listing important things. Things such as you must fully complete the 3 months to earn the scholarship. Things such as you can only share general details of your experience with anyone, and the full story must only be given to certified officials of the company with level 5 clearance.

P.S. Any transformations, alterations, or injuries you undergo during this assignment is not our liability, and can not be used as a basis to sue in court as stated in section 3, article 2, subparagraph 6.5.8. Now enjoy your first day! By this guess, it must be exactly 6 am of the time reading this letter(despite the constant sunlight). That means the alarm should ring right about...now.

At that moment, a sharp beeping sound pierced the quietness of the room. I covered my ears wincing in pain, then turned around to see the clock going off on the table beside the bed. I turned it off, ending the painful noise.

"That was weird how the letter got that right..." I remarked as I look at the time on the clock. 6:00:35. They had gotten it exactly right, or close enough to make it seem like I was being...well watched. Now I could investigate, or I can instead just follow the note.

...follow the note. I'm still kind of scared of this place.

6:05 am, November 1st 20XX

After a quick shower, I went into the kitchen to see what to eat. After searching for a while, I concluded that the kitchen was completely empty.

Great. Oh, wait there is another letter here. Ok, let's see...

You have now probably finished exploring where you will be living for a while. Impressed right? At our company, we wanted to give our participates a comfortable experience, and in your case, a place that won't freeze in a sub-zero tundra. Think of it as a nice apartment in NY.

The roof's metal layer will open and the glass layer will show a nice sunny day in about 3 hours to wake you up, then close at around 9 to help you sleep. Of course, you don't have to follow the cycle. Now, on to eating...

You have also probably seen that the fridge is empty because that was where this letter was. In a sense, getting food will be related to your tasks to interact. The kitchen is mainly for storage and cooking, noting the stove. Now please follow the directions back of this note to find the directory. It will take you to your first task, whichever habitat you choose.

-Lescaticorp Inc. Office of College Affairs

P.S. By habitat I mean living quarters

"I guess as long as I get something to eat," I said to myself as I looked on the back. On the back of the paper was a list of instructions on which way to go to reach the directory. It looked like one of the papers you would download off a map website back in the 2000s. Strangely Nostalgic. As I walked down the hallways, I felt myself going further and further down under the icy surface. The metal insulating walls gave way to normal, colorful hallways with wooden flooring and windows to peer into, although there were curtains behind the windows so I couldn't see much. It took a while, but I had found the directory. It was basically a tablet on a pedal-stool in the middle of a four hallway intersection, the way I came from labeled "Management". The other ways were labeled "West Wing, "Commons", and "East Wing".

Looking at the tablet, it had weird names for the species on this facility. Not knowing what to choose from first, I just picked the first one, named "Akaname". Instead of showing directions, a piece of paper came out from a slot on the side of the tablet.

Ah, so you're one of those alphabetical people. Anyways, you must interact with at least once a day. That's all since this paper isn't as large as the last two. K k.

"Hmm, that doesn't sound so bad," came the completely wrong words from my mouth since I'm looking at this in hindsight. Looking at the directions on the back of the note, I took the left wing and started my venture...

8:37 am, November 1st 20XX

Turns out, finding the Akaname room wasn't as hard as I thought. Then again, it was literally the first thing in the directory for habitats...

Unfortunately, the habitat area was apparently big, so it took a while for me to find the right door. During that time, I kept myself busy with looking at the decorations on the wall. A lot were paintings from what seemed to be labeled "Zipangu" but I didn't know where or what that was, so I didn't think much of it. Maybe a local area where the species was found?

Another thing I did was to keep writing in my journal that I took with me while walking. Sure I bumped into the walls while writing, but it was worth it. Eventually, I reached the door. It looked like a regular door, which caught me off guard because I had thought that it would be outfitted with at least a strong lock or a window or something. I opened the door, seeing a swampish environment, with a bed floating in the pond in the middle. Everywhere there were the types of trees and flora I would only see in pictures of jungles. I wondered how they even kept these things alive under a giant shelf of ice as I looked at everything, recording some drawings in my journal.

I was so into it that I sensed a rustling of leaves behind me, but I was too enraptured in recording my surroundings that I didn't pay any attention. That was when I felt something wet and slimy touch my shoulder. I quickly turned around in surprise, tucking my notebook under my shoulder and holding my pen as a weapon, although a not very effective one. I averted my eyes for a quick look on my shoulder, seeing a few drops of saliva left on it. It felt weird, but strangely soothing.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" I said, looking around me as I waved the pencil-weapon to and fro. I spotted movement in a bush a good dozen meters away from me and started walking forward. "It's ok little creature, I won't hurt you. I just want to be friends with you," I tried, wanting to appeal to it's softer side so it doesn't run away(or eat me if it was deadly enough).

"I know you won't, but I'm not a creature. I'm a woman thank you very much!" the cre-I mean person said from inside the bush.

Wait...person?

I stopped dead in my slow advance, staring with disbelief at the bush. Did he or she just...talk? I watched as a lady in a revealing, see-through silk kimono stood up and walked out of the bush, smiling at me. She seemed to be shorter than my 5"6' height. Her hair looked shiny but grey and uncut, and her eyes matched her color. Pointy ears wiggled up and down occasionally as she internally examined me herself.

"Seeing how you're human, you must be the new subject for us. What's your name young one?" She asked walking over to a large open flower and sitting on the center, patting the part beside here. Still confused an a little apprehensive, I walked over and sat, but left some room between us in case. "Um, my name is Anna. What's yours?"

"Nameru. So, you have just gotten here?"

"Well, yes. Although the plane ditched me so I don't have much of a clue about this place."

"Well, this is abroad housing facility for mamono," Nameru said. I swear she moved a fraction of an inch closer but I don't know. "I would go on, but all the information is listed in that weird, really long paper they make you sign before you can come here."

"You mean the EULA?" I responded. "No one reads that thing. Why would they put stuff there when they should know no one reads it?"

"That does sound accurate. I don't think I could manage reading it without falling asleep." She giggled, almost sliding off the flower on accident but holding on to my arm for support. "Well, we mamono are from another world, and this entire thing is mostly to see if in the case of a global emergency, say an em...war, we could move here to integrate with the humans and such."

"Another world? They didn't mention that on the website. Then again, everyone would think it was a joke program, so it was probably for the best. Do you know what I'm supposed to do here then?"

"Probably. Something along the lines of checking the control rooms occasionally to make sure of no problems, and spending time with us. Other than that, I have no idea." Nameru shrugged for emphasis, then started sniffing my shoulder. "Another question, when was the last time you took a shower?"

I blinked twice in confusion. "That was a weird question to ask, but em...I would say the morning of the day before I got onto the plane. Probably more than 24 hours ago."

The Akaname smiled, her eyes turning a sultry look. "No wonder the smell coming from you was so heavenly. May I clean you up?"

Now, in the maybe 3 hours I've been here, this was I think by far the weirdest thing that one could have asked me. That and that my stinkiness smelled "heavenly". However, it sounded like she had a bath here so...

"Sure, I guess I need one anyways." The sultry look on her eyes got lewd as she scooted over, closing the few inches between us to virtually nothing as her body pressed against mine. "Well, we can't clean you with clothing on right?"

"Oh yeah, I guess not." This was my first "mistake", taking off my clothes. Weirdly, how did I not feel hot wearing a sweater and jeans?

My second was letting her lead me to the pond in the center, where she pulled me into the water. The water felt like a hot spring, easing away my tension and helping me relax by melting all my stress away. She slipped in beside me, still wearing her kimono, although now that it was wet I could see through it easier than before. "Aren't you going to take off your own clothing?" I asked her. She shrugged. "Do you know what we Akaname are known for?" she said, practically glowering by now. "No, not really.." I responding, starting to inch away but she grabbed both my hands, keeping me in place.

Actually, I probably could have overpowered her but I don't know. I didn't have time to think about it as she pulled me into a deep kiss, pinning my arms down under the water and wrapping her legs around my body. Now definitely unable to move, I had no choice but to let her kiss me and wait till she pulled away. That was when I noticed something going down my throat and gagged. It was then she pulled away, her extended tongue quickly retreating back into her mouth. "Oh, my bad I overestimated your gag reflex. Are you ok?"

I coughed for a second, wondering what just happened. Nameru swam behind me and patted my back to help apologetically. "Something went d-down my throat and came back up," I said in between coughs. "Sorry, I just thought that I could kiss you will my tongue fully. Forgot that you're not used to it at all."

"T-tongue?" I said, partly confused. A long, slimy tongue than slide out from between her lips, not stopping until it appeared to reach her legs under the water. "Akaname use their tongue to lick all over one's body, tasting their filth. It's why I asked you if you had cleaned yourself lately." Nameru than swam backward and hopped onto her water bed, probably feeling bad about almost choking me on accident. "I probably should have asked straight up instead of kind of luring you into a trap...I'm sorry." I watched her awkwardly shuffle on the bed, then hopped on beside her naked and all. "Well, you can try to ask now if you want," I offered, seeing if I could make her feel better. Her elvish ears perked up at the sound of the offer but she didn't turn around.

"Hmm...well you like licking em...human filth right?" I tried again, not really knowing what to do here. I raised my arm, showing my armpit. Luckily I cut the hair or else that would be awkward. Nameru sniffed and turned around, seeing my arm raised. "Are you sure? I really don't want to hurt you," she protested one last time, although she was edging her face pretty close to my armpit by now. At last, she took a lick and looked at my chuckling face. "What? It giggled when you did that..."

"Oh, o-ok..." Now reassured she fully immersed herself, wrapping her tongue around the base of my arm and moving it back and forth, trying to rub all the "filth" she was referring to off my arm. It felt like a nice relaxing mix of stretching and a massage. Also wet and slimy, but that part wasn't a bother. All the while I watched, sometimes laughed every time she hit a sweet spot as she moved down my arm, leaving a coating of viscous saliva once she finishes with one section of my arm and moves to the next. In a few minutes, she had reached my fingers, crisscrossing her tongue in between each one of them conscientiously and not relenting until each one was done.

"Ok, your arm is clean. Covered cutely in my saliva, but clean!~" she said, already looking at the other arm, her eyes glowering again. She started to reach for it but then put her hand down and looked at me in the eye. I nodded then layed flat on my back on the bed to relax, while Nameru indulged herself licking all over my body. I probably fell asleep around this time, since the saliva left on my body felt really warm...

I woke up to a weird sensation coming from my crotch. At first, I thought it was just another wet dream, but as my subconscious slowly faded, I started to realize the sensation was there, and it was growing fast. I opened my eyes and looked around, seeing multiple Akaname swimming and playing around the pond. To my right, a particularly young one had fallen asleep with my middle finger in her mouth. Careful not to move my right arm too much, I sat up slowly, seeing Nameru staring at me from between my legs, and another who was licking the bottom of my feet. Whatever happened, this had gotten weird.

"What the..." were the only words that came out my mouth. The one licking my foot caught my eye and froze nervously, going to my left side and sitting beside me as if nothing had happened. "Nameru, what had happened while I out?" She blushed, her ears lowering at my stare.

"Her tongue is currently inside you right now, cleaning your womb," the one on my left side had said, then hopping into the pool before I could even react to what she had just said. I looked at Nameru and blushed too, now feeling flustered. "T-take it out..." I said, Nameru nodding and starting to slide her tongue out of my cunt. That only triggered a wave of pleasure from inside me. I lost control and fell back on my back, holding my mouth shut with my free left hand. Once it subsided, I took it off and looked back at her, panting. She was still staring at me, waiting for the right time to continue taking her tongue out. Thinking about it for a second, would it really be bad for her to get me off while l- ok yes that does sound bad.

On the contrary...I get to get myself off and she gets to clean my womb. Don't know why, but win-win...right?

"Y-you can keep going with t-the cleaning..." I said, immediately covering my moaning mouth again as she pushed her lengthy tongue back in. She moved down past the cervix and into my womb, cleaning whatever she was cleaning off and inadvertently replacing it with a coat of her own saliva, just like she had done with my arm. No mere human's tongue, shall I ever get a chance to try one, would have compared to this. In mere moments, I had reached my limit and came, covering her tongue with my own secretions. That only drove her on, now cleaning up that from my insides until it was completely free of filth. Now Satisfied, she pulled her tongue out of me, giggling as she looked at her free tongue, now covered in a thin hazy layer of what she had collected.

She moved beside me and safely removed the one on my right off my finger, replacing the vacant space with her own. "Thank you for your excess spirit energy. I didn't expect you to let me take so much, but you did. Are you ok?"

"Y-yeah...just need some more rest..." I lied. My face was red as a tomato and I was in the middle of an afterglow. What I needed was someplace cool, and maybe some food. Also youtube but asking for that third thing may be too much. Nameru gently lowered me back into the pond, the cold water hitting me like a spring. It somehow sped up my recovery to the point where I could move without feeling pleasure, which was weird. Now that I could move, I could ask the oh so important question of-

"What is the spirit energy you were talking about?" I said, getting a tilt in response until she remembered I wasn't from where she was from. "Oh, it is part of this life force that flows through everything, human or mamono. When you peaked, you released so much onto my tongue. Say, you don't feel anything weird right?" Her face suddenly changed to one of concern. "No, not now. Why?" I responded.

The Akaname exhaled with relief. "Oh god. Before I go show you where you can go to eat like you wanted to do, how about another deep kiss? I mean if you want to..."

Journal Entry #2

So, we ended up kissing for another hour before we finally put back on clothes. Turns out, her tongue can clean the inside of your esophagus too. Don't know where she learned that control...

Right now I'm writing this entry in the plaza. Under all the ice is an entire palace it seems. The company makers somehow got light to shine down here underground as if we were actually top ground. It also feels comfortably warm even though there is barely any insulation, but I do know a little of geothermic energy so we must be deep underground just enough to feel it. What else to write in here...

Oh yeah, I also made a friend. Nameru. She keeps trying to peek inside my journal but so far she hasn't gotten the chance yet. She also really likes to lick me clean. I might visit her again, maybe in my free time. Speaking of which, she's going to show me around the garden after we finish eating. Good thing too, because more 'mamono' are starting to come in. Some stare at me. It's weird.

I closed my journal and followed Nameru. I saw creatures of all shapes and forms, but they all at least had the figure of a woman. They all looked at me as I passed, making remarks on me and beckoning me to come to them. Nameru noticed and grabbed my hand, keeping me going as she lead the way to the garden. Once we got there, she took me to a section that had a bunch of fruit and vegetables that have already been grown. "I hope you mind being a vegetarian for a while before you get the other foods..." she said as she handed me a basket. I smile and thanked her, then started picking what I needed, plus some wheat for if I can make bread later. "Now what? Is this stuff free?" I asked her.

"Nope, now we go over to the Alurane to pay for the food!" She pointed over there at the counter, where a large flower seemed to be. Its petals were closed as if it was winter which is, geologically, the most accurate thing I have seen so far. We walked over the flower, Nameru knocking on the petals. "Hello? We would like to buy some fruit."

Two of the pedals slightly parted, showing two bright purple eyes shining in the darkness made by the shadows of her encasing flower. "The payment?" Nameru extended her tongue, somehow maintaining and perfectly preserving some of my secretions and saliva on it. She raised it until the tip was only a few inches away from the floor. Then, a green hand extended from the flower, running a light finger over the tip of the tongue like an inspector. "This is rich in spirit energy...where did you get this Nameru?"

"My friend Anna." She gestured to me, waving awkwardly. All the petals suddenly opened, revealing a bountiful green woman with vines providing the only coverage to her private areas. "Anna...wait, it's that time of the year already?! Now I get why you could have come across so much of it!" The woman extended a vine, coiling around my leg, then around my waist, only stopping once it was pressing against my mouth. "I know this may seem a little awkward, but may you lick the vine?" The Alurane said, licking her own lips as if waiting for something. I obliged, quickly licking the vine enough to cover part of it with saliva then closing my mouth. The vine retreated back into the flower and dipped itself in the nectar, the nectar glowing with the added spirit energy. The Alurane tasted some of her own nectar, smiling as bright as the glow. "Yes yes, she will do...well your groceries are paid for goodbye!"

Just like that, the flower had closed again, leaving an air of silence around for a while. At least I know where to get groceries now, and I spotted some cocoa beans I could come to get later...

6:48 pm, November 1st 20XX

Journal Entry #3

I now have an idea of where to go around the commons. I was able to bring back a lot more than food, and for some reason paid a lot with my saliva. I don't know what it is about me that calls for this but I just got an entire jug of milk, a blanket, a basket of groceries(and a basket to use, of course), and much more.

For example, I found these really cool flowers that light up for some reason. I think the person that was selling them said something about Demonic Energy? Either way, I placed them around the dorm, so now my bedroom is going to look really cool in the dark when I fall asleep.

Also, now I'm trying to make honey nut cheerios. The stuff around the marketplace might work, but I'm going to write it down here just in case for later modifications.

1x cheerio mold

2x cups alurane nectar(trying this before honey)

10 pounds worth of packed and rinsed wheat

This failed the first time I tried, but the 2nd I found a technique that worked. Soon I had a bowl's worth of plain cheerios. I was mixing in the nectar when I heard a knock on the door. Confused on who would even come here, I opened the door. There were a little girl and a slightly larger boy looking at me. The girl had a blue and white dress on, and the boy for some reason had a pink dress that went down to his ankles. Both had horns, wings, and a tail on them so they were probably mamono. "Hi," I said, waving to the two of them. The Alice waved back and scooted behind the boy, who was a bit nervous himself but didn't(or at least tried not to) show it.

"We were wondering if we could play with you for a while here with you," the boy said, twidling is fingers together. "Um, sure you can. Come in," I said, going back into the kitchen to continue mixing the nectar into the Cheerios. Once I did that, I put the bowl into the microwave and came out of the kitchen back into the main room. The two seemed to be playing pattycake on my bed. Bored, I decided to sit and watch. "So, how did you find this place?" I randomly asked, the girl apparently not noticing me until now. She ducked behind the bed, peering over to watch from the relative safety of the headrest.

"We em...followed you here," the boy said, his tail going back and forth nervously. "Don't you two have a place to be?" I asked, slightly annoyed that they did that without telling me. The boy looked down into his lap. "We...we just wanted to see the new one."

"Ok, but you could have at least asked. What if I had mistaken you for someone bad and hit you?"

The boy seemed to droop more. At least his remorse feels sincere. "We're sorry...may we sleep with you tonight?" The boy said, barely making his question audible. It left me silent, wondering why they would even ask that at this point. Bewildered, I looked behind the bed. The girl was still here, staring at me. I reached out a hand to her, putting on a smile. She obliged and grabbed it, and I lifted her from there onto the bed. "Now, I don't have the heart to kick both of you out, and you apparently don't want to leave. So after I finish eating my cereal, I'm going to bed. You can sleep with me. Ok? Ok." I then went back into the kitchen to eat my cereal. Once I was done, I came back, seeing the two already asleep. I turned off the lights, changed into my nightgown, and slide in between them. I felt them move against me, hugging me like I was a giant teddy bear. Smile from the embrace, I fell asleep.
