Rhea bounded in through the main door, checking herself by catching hold of Terrence's shoulder where he sat on the couch and whirling around to drape
herself over him from behind. "Hi guys!' she chirped brightly as the door finished closing shut with a quiet thud.
"Hey, Rhea," Terr rumbled, accepting a quick kiss from her.
Lisa eyed the door, then Rhea, then lifted her chin a little to peer over the back of the couch at the bag dangling from Rhea's hand. It had the Second
Skin logo on it. She smiled and nudged Terr. "Looks like Rhea's got something new," she said quietly.
"Oh?" Terr craned his head to look. Rhea let go of him and stepped back, beaming.
"Check it out!" she said, whipping a light-green bit of cloth out of the bag. Terr boggled. Lisa grinned. Rhea stared at them expectantly, the
scrap of material dangling from her fingertips and appearing to float on the breeze.
"Are you going to put it on?" Lisa inquired, reaching out to close Terrence's mouth with a soft 'clop'.
Rhea shook her head. "No, silly! It's for you!" She tossed it to Lisa, who caught it reflexively and blinked. Rhea continued: "Since
Terr's a party pooper and won't let them brand things with his name," and here she stuck her tongue out briefly at Terrence, "the manager
decided that she'd do the next best thing. Most of the line doesn't have to be redesigned, fortunately. But they said 'Gamma Emission' just
doesn't have the right ring, so they just want you to model the products, maybe do a demonstration video for a couple of them -- I'd be happy to help,
of course."
Lisa blinked. So did Terr. Both their jaws sagged open. Terr got a far-away look in his eyes.
"And I talked to her a little bit, she knows a lady who does education videos -- that reminds me, don't let me forget to show you one of the tricks I
picked up, heh -- and she thinks the three of us would be great to star in one of them. Apparently --"
"WHAT?" Lisa and Terr, simultaneously.
"-- they're having a hard time finding a trio willing to do the Threesome vid who don't come across all sleazy, and -- what's the
matter?"
"The WHAT video?!"
"It's not porn," Rhea said, reasonably. "It's very artistic, really. And educational. Both. But mostly educational." She
winked at Lisa. "I know I feel a lot more educated now that I've seen one of them."
"NO!"
"Why not?"
Lisa glared at Terrence. Rhea giggled. Lisa transferred the glare to her girlfriend. When she spoke, her voice had taken on the flat tone she used to
indicate complete seriousness.
"No."
Rhea signed, but shrugged. "I didn't think you'd go for it," she said. "But it was worth a try." She came forward, bent down and
kissed Lisa softly, then leaned against Terrence and grinned. "I don't suppose we can convince you to try on the new outfit, at least."
Terrence's eyes widened. Lisa regarded them with a half-exasperated, half-amused expression on her face. Rhea blinked her lashes and mock-pouted.
"Oh, all right," Lisa grumbled. "I suppose, since you brought it all this way and all..." She rose and started for the bedroom.
"And I still want to show you that trick I learned!" Rhea called out after she'd gone. She grinned and turned to regard Terr fondly. His eyes
were still somewhat glazed.
Well, it was a very skimpy bit of nothing, Rhea had to admit. And she knew that Terr's imagination was both very visual, and very good.
"You know," she said conversationally, "it might be easier to convince her if you weren't so stubborn yourself..."
"What? RHEA!"
"Can't blame a girl for trying!" she laughed. "C'mon, let's go see what Lisa looks like in her new outfit..."
