Writer’s note: I won’t have anymore time to play other games with Shas before phase 2 ends, so I made this the last chapter of Kadmus LLC arc. Hope y’all enjoy.

The lho-stick smoke danced in the purple and pink rays of the holoscreen in the middle of the small room, embracing the 3D projection of the sultry pin-up dancing in a loop, with more than a few glitches. An incense-like smell filled the circular space, engulfed the minibar, slithered along the faux-silk covers of the round bed and the faux-faux-silk cushions on it, covering the far more lascivious smell that could be otherwise be felt there.

Warm steam was rising out of the bathroom door, toghether with the perfume of exotic soap. The gentle noise of the shower mixed nicely with the soft electronjazz music coming from under the stained sofas that lined the whole apartment.

Jay stretched her massive arms and rose out of the sheets, shooting a last glance at the setting sun out of the 360° holowindow on the ceiling and a longer glance at the petite japanese keisotsu laying beside her, a deadringer of the one taking the shower at that very moment. She struggled to remember their names. Tai and Sai, maybe?

No matter, they would always let her chose how to call them.

A third one, identical to Kai and Sai, rose from the pile of soft sheets on the bed and hugged her from behind, caressing her deltoid “so, let me get this straight” he started, softly “you basically are one of the three bosses of Kadmus Zaibatsu?”

“Zaiwhatnow?” chuckled Jay “Zaidon’t know what you are talking about, but yeah, basically I am one of the bosses, I own a whole 2 shares of the company.”

She giggled at her own play on words. She cherished the chanche to talk normally and not pretend to have a room temperature IQ, from time to time.

“Two shares-u is not that much Jay-san” said the third boy, pouting “you basically own, like, one person worth”

“I am my own boss then” boasted Jay, reaching back to grab him, Kai she decided, and pulling him over her shoulder onto her lap with a powerful, fluid movement “and I can do whatever I want”

While Kai was busy blushing violently, Sai, next to them, gently awakened and reached to Jay’s thigh “Whatever-whatever?” he asked softly

Jay grinned and leaned into Sai for a kiss “whatever I so wish for” she growled into his ear “and you are just as mine as those two company shares are”

Their giggling was abruptly stopped by the doorbell, hooked up to override the music system and catch everyone’s attention with a chord of pure silence, sure to interrupt any fun. Which it did.

Jay scoffed and stood up in her full nude glory (as she herself referred to it), scooping Kai up from her lap and putting him, butt naked as well, over her shoulder. Whoever was bothering them at this hour, was going to get a nice show.

In a few steps she crossed the room, surrounded by the little screams and laughter of the three keisotsu, and opened the apartment main door, which was cleverly disguised as one of the couches. The scene beyond the threshold never failed to amaze Jay, no matter how many times she’d seen it.

The Cloud-LXIX hotel was composed by a series of scaffolding and independent rooms, interconnected by bridges. The whole thing was engulfed by holoprojections, much like the ones in Chalcis, set to mimic a sunset over the clouds, giving complete privacy from ground level and reasonable privacy from other rooms. All in all, it built a very beliaveable illusion that the whole hotel was floating inside and over golden numbus, just like in that ancient historical human documentary, Star Wars.

Most notably, there was nobody on the bridge outside the door.
