[GAME LOADED. WELCOME BACK!]
He looked at the time seeing it was merely four in the afternoon as he pulled up at Liquor Mart. The oyabun had not been here in weeks, but the place was fine and one of his men was there acting as security.
"Mr. Santos, hey." Taeko said, coming up.
"Taeko, how's things?" Mr. Santos asked.
"Good." Taeko mused.
"I noticed that you never bothered to ask me if I wanted to sell your brand of liquor. But you let Mr. Chen to sell your booze at a ridiculous markup price." Mr. Santos said dryly.
"To be fair, I owed Chen at the time but seeing that he's pulling that shit. He can get the rest of my silver quality wine. Because thanks to some improvements, I sell gold quality at a minimum now." Taeko mused as Mr. Santos cackled.
"I figured you'd want to sell the wine through us given…your bar. You'd want people to buy bottles and people are going to Chen…let's fix that." Mr. Santos said. "But before I give the ok, I'll need an investment and a bit of a favor."
"Let's hear it." Taeko asked before being shown to the office.
"I heard you're growing the green stuff, and I happen to have a cousin interested in making products from it. You know, gummies, brownies, and that stuff. I was wondering if you could sell your pot directly to him. He can set up here and we can partially convert the place into a weed dispensary. The place would be closed all week for construction of it, but it'd be well worth it. Much better than selling weed all over the place." Mr. Santos mused.
"Ok, how much would this be?" Taeko asked.
"120,000 Gold. Santino has a license, but doesn't have a good consistent source of weed to make his craft. With him licensed, the feds aren't going to look into where he gets the weed from and you don't have to take any unneeded risks." Mr. Santos explained as Taeko nodded in agreement.
"One more question, so until the place is complete…I can just hold onto the weed. If this place is complete, where is the weed going to be brought to for him to work on? Here?" Taeko asked.
When Mr. Santos nodded, Taeko ponied up the money immediately.
"Excellent. You won't be getting your cut of the profits for a bit, but it'll be made up.
[Liquor Mart will be upgraded, come next week. So your asset gains will be frozen until then!]
They shook hands and left as Taeko munched on a [Maple Bar].
"Damn, that's good." Taeko said getting in his [Banshee].
He drove over to his [Weed Farm] after having a quick call to Velma, to find Chloe running things as usual.
"I have an announcement." Taeko said as the crew stopped. "There is going to be a change…so we won't be going all around to sell the weed. No, starting next week…we'll be offloading it to a dispensary on my ownership. So less risk involved, everyone still gets paid. Any questions?"
"Do we get discounts?" One worker asked.
"Velma's going to be here to talk to you about that." Taeko asked. "Any other questions?"
"What about supplies?" Chloe asked.
"Yeah, I'll still deal with that, but after talking with Velma…that job will be shared with the kobun to do on occasion. So don't fret over that." Taeko said. "Anything else?"
"Would it be okay to sell this extra weed? We didn't make it, one of our guys managed to win it in a card game. Seeing that you're not selling…on the streets."
"As long as you can deliver on it without police attention…but if you want to use the connections for me and my guys, I want a cut of that sale, especially if you stored it here!" Taeko said as the workers sighed but agreed. "Good. Here's 2,000 Gold, Chloe. Order a pizza for everyone to have. My treat."
He gave the money to Chloe as the crew all thanked Taeko before he left. Next up on his list was Kiba's Keep, which he found to be going on business as usual. As was XanTech, so he went to the Verona Beach Apartments. Going into his manager's office, he checked on the status to see what could be improved. The default room was a lavish one with five rooms; 2 bedrooms, 1 kitchen, 1 living room, and 1 wardrobe/bathroom with all rooms connected through a main hall. Frankly, 600 gold was way too cheap for it…but he did not want to raise the rent unless he upgraded something so he looked. Seeing that he could improve the laundry room, add a rec room, up the rails to gold, and add a few things to the pool were all options…he opted to pay for them all which cost him 200,000 and 30 [Gold Bars]. However, he'd pay and up the rent to 1000 gold. That was still a mercifully kind price, but it was a reasonable one that he could profit from. At least his per tenant bonus went up to 250. There was a knock on the door to which Taeko opened it to see Sebastian.
"What up?" Taeko asked.
"Just checking in. Got the notice about the change in rent, and I wanted to let you know that me and Lin are moving out." Sebastian remarked. "She and I are looking to be homeowners."
"Got a place in mind?" Taeko teased.
"Yeah, a pretty sweet stilt house on sale." Sebastian said. "I did a few jobs for the realtor and he's handing them to us for a sweet price."
"Look at us, we're almost family men." Taeko joked.
"Yeah, I kinda doubt Maru will be down for kids…" Sebastian joked back.
"Oh definitely, it'll be Penny first. Whether it'll be Abigail or Maru next depends on whether they want to have them or the condom breaks." Taeko said as he laughed. "But I kinda expect Maru to last in wanting a kid."
"Figures. Speaking of Maru, I'm giving her my former apartment." Sebastian said.
"No issue at all, just make sure she signs on the form of transfer of lease before her birthday." Taeko mused. "When are you and Ling moving out?"
"Today, actually." Sebastian said.
"Ok, you and Ling should get to it. By the way, I just found a source for [Void Eggs]." Taeko said, piquing Sebastian's interest. "So I'll be raising Void Chickens."
"Awesome. I'll consider buying those…they're a bit more spicy than regular ol' eggs, but the health benefits are there. Just don't turn them into mayo, only goblins like that. But collectors will want some of it. Later, man." Sebastian said before leaving.
Elliot had called as soon as he left and Taeko put it on speaker.
"Elliot. What's the status?" Taeko asked.
"Excellent news, he's agreed to the deal. Your product's quality was good and very concentrated…so he can water it down to make pens with decent quality ink. He's agreed to the price and I'll send your share of the money. Just have the bottles sent to me and I'll handle the deliveries." Elliot said as Taeko's phone buzzed that he received 1,800 Gold.
"Then we're in business." Taeko said happily. "I'll have a batch for you again soon. Later, partner."
Taeko hung up glad to have a working deal and another legit business avenue. He left the apartment building looking up at the sky.
"Well, things are working out. I'll check the trailer park another day…" Taeko thought.
Taeko received a text from Chloe to pass by to pick up some money and she drove on over. Chloe came out to toss him the cash, bills that equaled up to 20,000 Gold. He drove off going straight to Calico Desert as the sun was slowly starting to set. Parking his car, he walked over to Rahasaya.
"Taeko, what can I do for you?" Beli asked.
"Looking for a few things. [Winter Seeds], namely. And…are those [Sandfish] in that tank?" Taeko said looking over.
"Yeah, Seri fishes as a hobby. Want one?" Beli asked.
"Yeah, just five [Winter Seeds] and [Sandfish]. I'll trade two [Diamonds]." Taeko offered.
Beli accepted as they traded. He'd saunter over to the Oasis to see Sandy and Angel. Angel was quick to say hello as Sandy looked wistful asking how things were for Taeko.
"I got this!" Taeko said showing his [Club Card].
"For the thing in the back. Well, tell me what you're in for when you come out." Sandy said as Taeko went ahead to the back where the bouncer guarded the entrance.
"I got the card." Taeko said showing it. "Mr. Qi's expecting me."
"Of course, welcome to Qi's Casino." The bouncer said before pulling a ninja vanish.
Taeko didn't bother to question but went in through the door.
[Cues Casino BGM: Sonic Advance OST - Casino Paradise Act 1]
The casino had a purple space theme to it alongside several people who clearly had cash to burn playing slot machines or playing blackjack. He noticed elves, humans, and even goblins.
"Mr. Maelstrom, you're here at first. It's good to finally meet ya, kid. Welcome to my exclusive clubhouse. You've got the 'spark'... that's why I singled you out. What spark? Ah... The conduit of mystery, of art... People like us have a responsibility to keep the world alive, to give folks a taste of the extraordinary. You see, kid... The world's like a bowl of rice. It's got substance, but it ain't worth nothin' without a good, zesty sauce. That's where we come in. Didn't you ever wonder who put those treasure chests in the old mineshaft? I like to give people surprises. You'll understand someday. Just keep doing your best and never give up." Mr. Qi said with a smirk.
"Well put, and well said." Taeko said.
"By the way, thank you for buying and improving the Mirage Motel. Some of my 'friends' here are more than pleased with it." Mr. Qi said before showing Taeko how things went in his casino.
Taeko wanted to stay, but he had things to do along with commitments to keep.
[BGM Ends]
He left about to leave the Oasis only to stop, remembering he had stuff to buy.
"Sandy, I need about 50 [Starfruit Seeds]." Taeko said putting 20,000 Gold for her.
"Have fun with it." Sandy teased giving it to him.
Before getting in his car, he collected as much [Cactus Fruit] as he got see.
He headed home getting his car in his garage. He checked his [Bundles] list seeing that he was so close to getting two of them done. Getting the [Pufferfish], a bottle of [Maple Syrup], and his fishing supplies, he got in the [Caddy] and rode off to the Secret Woods. He arrived to find a bear. Of course, given he punched monsters on a daily basis and killed enough gangsters to rank with the GTA protagonists…he wasn't too scared. Then the bear asked for the syrup to which he gave him before the bear spoke, bestowing Taeko with a blessing.
[New Perk! Bear's Knowledge - A gift from nature, the skills to allow you to sell salmonberries and blackberries for triple the price!]
"Salmonberries? I mean, blackberries I'm happy for…but…um thanks, I guess." Taeko said as the bear left.
Taeko was thinking that was a total wash but simply went to the pond to fish. He fished up a few [Carp] before getting his desired [Woodskip], a pair of them. He'd hurry to the golf cart and race off to the mountain to get to the mines. Parking the cart in front, he went into the mines and straight to the elevator to go down to the twentieth floor…remembering the lake there. Getting the [Ghostfish] wasn't too difficult at all…leaving Taeko to happily leave the mines and drive right on over to the Community Center. With the four needed fish, he entered them in the [Speciality Fish Bundle] , completing it and being rewarded with five [Dish O' the Sea].
"Ok, I just need to complete the [River Fish Bundle], [Ocean Fish Bundle], and the [Mountain Fish Bundle]. I need a sunfish, shad, tiger trout, bullhead, sturgeon, tuna, red snapper, and a tilapia. Ok, I think I saw Krobus did sell fish. May as well go see him." Taeko said before leaving.
He was able to drive right into the sewers via the second accessible entrance in the forest. Parked up near Krobus's place before approaching the shadow being.
"Krobus, you sell fish?" Taeko asked.
"Normally on Wednesdays. I do spend some time on Tuesday doing some fishing…I got some leftovers. Need anything specific?" Krobus asked.
When he told him of what he was seeking.
"I got some old [Tiger Trout] you can take off my hands…I can take down your phone number and call to get any of what you're looking for." Krobus offered as Taeko handed his number to him. "Today's special is an [Omni-Geode]. 300 Gold."
"Done." Taeko said he would pay for it as he got the geode and the fish. "Thanks, Krobus."
"You're very much welcome, friend." Krobus said.
"Well well…looks like I was sensing right." Dondrin said, revealing his presence. "I…it can't be…you're the…one..the mutant who saved me."
Krobus looked at Dondrin and he looked shocked to see him.
"So can I get some context?" Taeko asked as Myth teleported into the room.
Before Myth could speak, Krobus spoke up.
"I abhor conflict, but I had won in the war between his people and mine. As you're well aware, a proxy war caused by the elves. What the dwarf and you don't is…I'm a deserter." Krobus said to the surprise of Dondrin. "I didn't agree with the fighting…and we were getting unclear reasons as to why. Just that the Dwarven people had WMDs tailored to Shadow people…all intel from the elves. But the elves of old took advantage of old hate to drive the people to fight. War is…when the young and stupid are tricked by the old to kill each other."
"We did bad things in the war…" Dondrin said.
"Things that haunt us, things we regret. But to why I deserted…actually has to do with Dondrin. I don't know if it was Dondrin's family or not…but I came across a group from my unit. After you walk into a house, you see two children, all sitting neatly at the kitchen table, each with their throats cut and their hands chopped off, I realized that the creatures that could do this don't have souls. The less said about the mother the better." Krobus said with a shaken look as Dondrin ran to the river flowing in the sewer to vomit.
Dondrin lumbered back as Taeko gave them one of his expressos to which the dwarf drank.
"In a rage, I murdered my former countrymen and fled…in the process saving Dondrin. I just kept running…until I was out of the country." Krobus said.
"All this time, I thought you killed them…" Dondrin said with a sigh. "The irony…how small of a world that we meet like this."
"If it makes you feel better, considering Puritas is no more…and the elves don't have the influence to pull shit like that again…you two can find some semblance of peace." Taeko said sympathetically.
"I was worried about a fight…I'm glad that's not the case." Myth said. "Dondrin, how about I take you out for drinks? You look like you need it."
"Aye." Dondrin said before leaving with Myth.
"Are you going to be okay?" Taeko asked Krobus.
"I will. At the very least, I can now live without fear of an assassin coming down my neck." Krobus said. "But you should go…I think I'll call it an early night and get some sleep."
Taeko left unaware he had done a heart event, until he drove out of the Sewers. Evening fell into night as Taeko arrived at the Stardrop Saloon trigger another heart event, this time with Gus.
"Taeko." Gus said as he took a seat on the barstool. "How's the town businessman doing?"
"Good. I had forgotten to tell this while you were here with Willy. But I liken you to the pot of sauce I was making in the morning. You're a new ingredient, one that could ruin or improve the flavor. But I've come to see you as a good friend and so has Cosette." Gus said "I found this while cleaning the Saloon. A [Mini-Jukebox]."
Gus gave it to him citing that Taeko would find a use for it and gave him the 'recipe' to make more of them.
[You can now craft Mini-Jukeboxes!]
He figured he could add one to his apartment building's rec room.
"Shoot, I need to check on the one in RC." Taeko thought before Elliot interrupted his thought.
"Taeko, my good friend. Shall we have that drink?" Elliot said.
"Of course…" Taeko said as Elliot ordered [Pale Ales] for them.
"A toast!" Elliot said as they got them.
Taeko was given a few choices from the Game, and chose to say 'To their friendship' which netted him 50 friendship points.
"To us!" Elliot said as they clinked glasses and drank. "Ah…life doesn't get any better than this."
"Yeah, Pelican Town is never boring. If it's one thing I've come to learn, it can always get weirder." Taeko said as Elliot.
"I'm surprised that you got Clint a woman in his life…he seemed so lonely." Elliot said, spying Clint and Kaia having a drink and chatting.
"Yeah, so there the elves. A chunk of them…fucking thristy. Kaia's just upon the few who can actually have a healthy relationship…and admit they are thirsty." Taeko mused.
"Well, I'm glad for him. He needed happiness in this life." Elliot said.
"You know how it is…" Taeko said with a cheeky look. "Either way, I have to bounce…I have to see someone who's been waiting to see me."
Taeko left driving up to the railroad up the mountain and parked near the spa. It was finally time and he was a bit nervous. However, he relaxed himself and went into the men's locker room. He changed into just a pair of sunset floral board shorts before going in. The pool was quiet as he sat on the edge and Penny arose from the water in a light blue island print string bikini and a spot of red lipstick on her lips.
"Hey." Penny said sitting next to him.
"I also feared you'd go all red eyed and hungry on me." Taeko said lightly.
"That was because I didn't know how to control myself." Penny admitted. "It's one of the reasons I've been hesitant to be intimate. I don't want to risk hurting who I love."
"I love you too, Penny." Taeko remarked. "I know the feeling…we all have to control our strength to protect the ones we care about."
"It's a bit hard to deal with my sharpened senses at times…you smell pretty good." Penny said, biting her lip. "Biting you…"
"It's ok, Pen. It's ok." Taeko said as they shared a kiss.
The kiss that would get a bit more heated as both parties slid their hands to feel the other up. Penny had taken a dip in the water before to hide how soaked and eager she was looking forward to this day.
"Taeko, there's something I really want you to do…" Penny said. "You know what a mating press is…"
"Penny, I knew you were eager to have children already." Taeko teased as she blushed.
Thoughts of him pinning him down pumping her full of his baby batter got her body hot as she panted a bit. Her helping him to breed Abigail and Maru were in the back of her mind. She loved him…and definitely wanted his babies. It didn't help that Taeko was already up and taking off his shorts, with her member in her face.
"Oh, the smell…" Penny thought before stroking it gently.
"I do want kids…but I know you're not ready. Neither am I." Penny admitted. "But let's focus on what we're going to do now."
"Going for the press still?" Taeko teased.
"Save that for the far future, Taeko." Penny said, throwing off her bikini. "Let's focus on the now."
Taeko admired her body which was clean shaven down below
[Cues BGM: The Isley Brothers - Between the Sheets]
She started to pump it up and down slowly. Taeko moaned in response, she started to pump faster, grip his dick harder. His long pulsing member felt red hot in her hand…but she knew she wanted to make sure he was primed ready. Given the eyes on her lithe body warmed her up as her nipples stiffened. She stroked his shaft for a few moments before moving her hand up to the head, she pressed her thumb into it gently, then gave the glans a few more gentle strokes. Soon Taeko grunted, letting his cum fly, right over shoulder splattering on the floor. Penny looked impressed with the volume.
"I've been holding that one for hours." Taeko said. "But now I'm ready."
"Have a seat then, my love." Penny said, gesturing to the beach chair.
He took a seat as she sauntered up to get on top getting his length position as she slowly let it enter her. She winched from the pain as he was far better than her fingers as she took it inch by inch. With it all, she slumped over, ending her chest against his chest. Not that the couple had an issue as he began thrusting into her. A tight fit but she was slowly making it work lifting her behind up and down, juices spilling out of her and onto him.
"I'm so glad I waited for the perfect moment…" Penny moaned out. "Just you and me…"
She had the urge to bite him among the kisses she planted on his neck, but she held back her fangs.
"Hey Penny, remember when you said you wanted a mating press?" Taeko said with a grin.
Penny blush before squeaking as she was flipped over with her back to the chair as he was on top of her.
"Future's now, P." Taeko said before going faster.
"Fuck!" Penny hissed. "Taeko, you cheeky cad!"
The sound of slapping flesh rang as Penny moaned for him to keep going. Her body trembled with pleasure as she mewled for more. Her fingers dug into his back, but it was not enough to scratch him. Her opening clamping down drove Taeko to thrust even harder. Sweat pooling down as Taeko hit the limit. He had forgotten that Penny was a virgin before this…."
"I'll give it to you…you lasted ver-"
"I'm cumming!" Penny yelled, spraying his crotch. "But don't stop! Fill me up! BREED ME!"
Not long after, he hit his climax, driving in deep and spraying her insides with his seed as Penny's eyes rolled back as she was in pure euphoria. Taeko groaned as he pulled out of her and got to his feet. Semen spills out of her as shakes on the chair.
"That was…intense." Taeko said as Penny nodded in agreement.
"It was perfect." Penny said, stumbling a bit to get up. "Don't worry…I'm loaded on contraceptives. What I said was in the heat of it."
"Shit, we left a mess and…SHIT!" Taeko said, sensing others. "We're going to have company."
[BGM Ends]
Taeko snatched up his shorts to put back on as Penny was hurriedly getting her bikini back on. Given who was coming through the men's locker room, Taeko slipped out the women's with Penny who only took her purse, phone, and keys in the rush. Taeko was so glad for the Game at the moment before driving away with Penny in the golf cart.
"Now that the spa's accessible, we can…Oh sweet Yoba." Lewis said, seeing the mess.
"Looks like someone was having fun…and ran when they heard us." Marnie said before looking at the seed and the trail of it. "Damn, he has to be cumming buckets. Who do you think it was?"
"Well I'm not going to bother look into that…I…"
"Here we are, Kaia…the Spa, perfectly for us to…" Clint said only to see the mess. "Mayor Lewis!"
"Shit! Do all the men in this town cum like that?" Kaia said as Lewis blushed.
Outside, Taeko had driven Penny to the beach for her to get to her houseboat. She kissed him goodnight as she drove away. Exhausted, she went inside to get into the shower.
"Best night ever…"
Taeko had returned to the Spa as he really felt bad for leaving the mess. He came to find Kaia, Clint, Marnie, and Lewis working to clean it up.
"Taeko, I…"
"I should be cleaning that…that was me." Taeko said.
"What do you eat, Taeko?" Lewis asked in both horror and amazement.
"Look story short, Harvey thinks I'm 'too healthy'." Taeko said.
"That's an understatement." Kaia said. "But hey…we all have a funny story…and I think I let this slide. Go home, Taeko."
"Yeah, I don't mind too much." Clint said dryly. "I owe you for this lovely picture in my life."
"I do, mind." Lewis said, a bit annoyed.
"But we'll let it go just this once." Marnie said, eyeing Lewis. "We owe him all, considering you know."
Lewis looked at Marnie in confusion as she mouthed something that got Lewis to agree. With that, Taeko left. He cleaned up in the locker room, changing into a pair of gray sweatpants, a pair of SubUrban white flip-flops, and a white tank top. He returned home…looking at the time to see it being close to nine. Getting the sixteen bottles of [Mead] from the kegs, he went down to the cellar to get the now iridium quality [Mead] replacing them with 12 bottles made from the kegs from the shed. The four extra he'd kept as he had loaded the [Cactus Fruit] into the kegs and placed a dozen [Strawberries] in the preserve jars to make jelly to sell for tomorrow.
He went to the greenhouse planting the [Winter Seeds] before going out to the field to plant the [Starfruit Seeds] in the remaining spots with a dash of [Speed-Gro] he crafted. Thanks to the perks and a dash of that, he'd only need one day for them. He loaded up the selling bin with the [Mead] he made, a dozen [Diamonds], and went inside for a few other things to sell. In the process, finding things in his freezer he forgot about for bundles. He gathered those and all the silver quality wine he had left packaging it for Chen. With the selling bin having what he wanted to sell, he drove over to the Community Center to drop before coming back home to use the [Geode Crusher] on the [Omni-Geode] only to get ten pieces of [Coal].
"Tomorrow, I'm going fishing bright and early." Taeko said. "I need to give those bundles asap."
With that, he kicked off his sandals and flopped onto bed.

(A/N: Wednesday turned into a pretty big four parter, but it worked out as this day was nothing but spicy stuff all day with a big finish. Penny and Taeko had their big moment and Taeko has popped the cherries of all three of his girlfriends. (*cheers*) Though, I think Penny probably got the best of him all considering. On the other side of things, Taeko finally has gotten two of the Galaxy weapons. Yeah, Raikiri's going to the wayside now…and so are his knives considering the Galaxy Dagger. Tomorrow, Taeko focuses on finishing the fishing bundle.)
