Next Gen VR (closed for Goldenbraid)

Samuel Cormanay III had been a genius all his life and so it was no wonder he started to study at the MIT. His first field was computer science because that was the future apparently. His parents were rich so rich that he could afford his own laboratory are home and didn't had to interact with many people outside of his parents and teachers.

Then his parents died in a tragic accident and he sank into deep depressions. Why had that happend? After some weeks nearly catatonic he got new purpose from the idea to finding out what had cause the accident. Apparently his father had suffered some kind of mental breakdown and steered their car over a bridge because his brain wasn't working right. He switched his field of experience to neurophysiology in the hopes of getting the brain to project images and emotions outwards. After months of experiments he found out that perhaps he could do the opposite of that, projecting images and emotions into the brain, read the reactions and record them, at least in theory.

The next setback was the fact that he had neglected his body. That he had gained weight and wasn't really that presentable wasn't a problem for him at all, that his back started to act up and that the hours bend over his desk without any exercise took a toll on his body to a point where the pain was to much and he couldn't continue to work was. When the day came that the pain as there right after he woke up he knew he had to change something. He hired a personal trainer and got not only back to work slowly, he also gut back into shape. He still was miles away from being buff but the pouch was going slowly away and he took greater care of his looks as well, even tough he wasn't going out.

Now his was 27, rather normal build with short blond hair and a neatly trimmed beard. His grey eyes still showed a bit of sadness even when he not thought of his parents which he still missed. He could work again on his project and even though his personal assistant Edward - who had been in his fathers service as well - and his person trainer Jorge tried to get him to live his life a bit more and go out perhaps trying to find a woman he was was afraid that the emotional baggage would hold him back.

And then he was done. Without even realizing where his project had gone he had build a server and 2 headsets that connected to this server. The headset where kind of a VR set but much more advanced. Two people could experience an environment together and in theory it should feel like they really where there. Now he just had to test it. He had kept his project mostly to himself and was not ready to test something that could disclose his inner feelings to someone he knew. He needed someone who was emotionally detached from him but ready to experiment a bit. Then he got a wild idea. He still was a man and he still had needs even if he didn't go out, so he watched porn. There was one actress who he liked very much and it took just minutes for him to find out his address. It was a gamble but he was willing to take it. He put the headset in a box with a note that read:

I would like to test something, I promise it will not be dangerous
Please put this headset on. You should be seated and alone but of course you can ask someone to look after you after some time

Signed: An admirer

He did put her address on the box and handed it of to an courier service that would keep his own address secret. Then he prepared the server with a setting. A small tropical island with the perfect climate, a small forest with some birds but no other animals. Beaches with white sand, a small mountain with a waterfall that emptied into a shallow pool and a small modern house with a kitchen, a bath with a large tub and rain shower and a huge bed in the central room. Moss covered path connected everything and a soft wind should make it feel even more realistic.

Then he set up a signal that would trigger when she put on the headset and went back to work.

Charity Williams had gotten into 'the Biz' young. When puberty hit, she blossomed like a force grown flower, within a year she had the figure of a girl past eighteen.... which of course lent to much rumors of her being sexually loose during high school. Half the guys had swore they had been with her by the time she'd graduated.

Sadly it wasn't hard for people to believe, long legs, D-cup breasts, a very voluptuous figure without getting into the 'junk in the trunk' size, pretty face and of course blonde hair.... though it was more dirty blonde.... still nature had given her all the gifts of a temptress. At least that what a lot of people told her time and again. Hell her manager Jake played up the fact... her first film for him had been called 'Charity gets Dirty'.

She was now twenty-five and pretty popular in the porn industry, though lately Jake had been taking wilder and kinkier film ideas for her, like he was trying to keep her name hyped up or something, though if her popularity was slipping it didn't show in the fan mail she got. She still got tons of requests of autographs, souvenirs, marriage, love letters.... far cruder love letters.... and constant picture of guys dicks with pleas to put them into one of her films. That was why the box with some kind of machine in it caught her attention.... and confusion. She was tempted to ask Jake on his impression, but he always disappeared with packages saying they needed checking for safety and over half she never saw again, especial the ones with sweets and such.

So she put it aside out of sight till she was alone and could look it over more carefully..... finally one evening taking a chance and donned the headset.....

It had been two weeks since he had send the package and by now he was certain that the device either had been lost, broken or Charity had put it away somewhere never to be used again. He worked on a third device just in case but also got more simulations ready perhaps to present them to some company so he could sell his idea? He was lost somehow. His drive to help people somewhat diminished be the realization that what he had at hand was more entertaining then helpful. Perhaps he should try to make a lot of money from it and use that to further studies into mental illness.

So he was surprised when the alarm got off. Okay, someone had put on the headset, but was it her? He had programmed it so the person would appear on the beach in simple white summer clothing. A white flowing summer dress for a women, white khakis and a white shirt for a man. What the person would look like depended on the self image he or she had. He grabbed his headset, sat down on the bed and put it on.

He appeared at the point where the path led away from the beach and look apprehensively in the direction where the entry point for whoever had the other headset was. He was wearing the white summer closing he had programmed for the male form and otherwise looking like himself.

It was her alright and she looked stunning. The sun caught in her blond hair and the dress flowed around her perfect body in a very suggestive manner. He knew that the interface was good, he didn't just know HOW good it was.

He took a step towards her and greeted her.

"Hello Charity, I'm Sam and you are in a simulation. I wanted to make something clear from the beginning, this is purely voluntary. If you want to leave you just have to concentrate a bit and you will fell the headset on your head again. Then you can take it off and the simulation will stop."

He took another step and continued: "If you chose to stay I can show you around and explain a bit more."

 

[Goldenbraid]

Charity looked about a bit confused. She was standing on a beach it appeared, in a while summer dress, pretty much looking completely normal, though she'd swear as her hair blow slight about it was a bit blonder that usual.

As she stood there another figure appeared, a guy about her age she'd guess, short blonde hair and a bit of a beard, wearing white summer like clothes too, and he stepped towards her, greeting her by name. "Hi Sam. This is a very real feeling sim.. ula.. tion." She said a bit unsure of things, but as he told her, she could feel the headset when she concentrated so relaxed some.

She smiled at him. "Well some explaining would be helpful i'm sure."

Sam moved closer to her and and to suppress a gulp. She was even more beautiful then he imagined. The Sand under his feet felt warm but not hot. The simulation was simply splendid but the next test was the one he was most curious about. He reached out with one hand indicating that he wanted to lead her around.

"This is the point. The simulation should feel real. Not just sight and hearing but also smell, touch and everything else."

When she took his hand he could feel her skin, smooth and warm from the sunlight. A tiny harmless spark moved between them, nothing that would startle her but still enough to be recognizable. He turned to the moss covered path and continued.

"And I'm kinda a fan of yours and to I thought it would be nice to test it with you."

His other hand pointed to the path.

"May I show you around then? The simulation is limited but I think it is quite nice."
