"I didn't expect to see you so soon, Mary," Mina said, as she walked in. She was in a white terrycloth bathrobe and had her hair up in a bun. Mary could see that the door through which she entered led to the room she had been watching on the monitor. The large black man was still on the bed. "I'm glad you came, though. It'll give me a chance to get to know my new neighbors and insure my own safety."

"I was hoping you would be more fun than the other two. They are too serious for their own good," Mary responded.

"Yes, I could see that. Sabastian doesn't look like he's cracked a smile in century," Mina joked.

"Not with anyone other than Susan, anyway," Mary replied.

"Well, I noticed you watching me work for a little bit. I'm guessing Sin showed you around and told you some basics about our lifestyle."

"I did," said Sin.

"I hope she didn't go over the top, as is her custom. She likes to push the limits."

"She was just fine," Mary answered.

"See," Sin said, sticking her tongue out at her sire.

"Yes, and so mature, too. Sin, I'd like to talk with Mary alone."

"Yeah, I understand. Time for me to go."

"Thank you."

"No problem," Sin answered, as she left the room.

"I'm glad you came," Mina said, sitting next to Mary. The robe fell from one side, revealing her bare hip, but nothing more, as her legs were crossed. "I'm sorry that Sin was the only one available to show you around, however. She can be a bit over the top. I assume she explained that we give our customers memories of events that may or may not have taken place."

"Yes, she gave a brief overview of the process."

"Well, when Sin is in a particularly playful mood, she has a habit of making straight men think they have had sex with other men. Usually her client is, how to put it, on the receiving end. To make matters worse, she always makes them think it was the most incredible sexual experience of their lives."

Mary chuckled at the thought.

"It is funny on one level, but a bit unnerving on another. Sin has very strong mental and emotional powers, she should respect them more than she does. But then she is still young. She will grow up. At least I hope she does," Mina said with a chuckle, putting her hand on Mary's leg.

"So I'm here, I've been fed," Mary said holding up her glass, "what now?"

"Well, you have the quick overview of what we do, how about a more detailed description?"

"O.K."
