Transcendental Obfuscation
Why we will never know why...
Author's note:
A light look at some popularly accepted mythoi and what might be the "real" story behind all those unexplained disappearances... written with tongue firmly implanted in cheek. Intended to be read that way. Cheers...

"Under no circumstances are you to tell him."
"But he'll figure it out soon enough."
"I doubt it. Human males aren't all that smart."
"I don't know... This one might be. He's already been testing his restraints."
"That's just an innate nervous response. To being restrained."
"I don't know... That was a pretty crafty look there, while he was ogling you."
"He wasn't ogling me. He was staring stupidly. And besides, all human males ogle naked females."
"Not all of them. Remember that one subject, Bruce?"
"That one wasn't right in the head. And I'm not talking about his sexual preferences, either. There was something seriously wrong with that creature."
"I'm telling you, this one's going to figure it out. You might as well let him go now, and get it over with."
"No. We're not done getting his baseline. Though we probably should sedate him. A little
Pulveris Vitae
, perhaps?"
"Only if you want him to cum his brains out in his sleep."
"It is
orgasm
. Only if I want him to
orgasm
while unconscious. Fine.
Somno Capturam
, then. You know, your disrespect for our ways is what keeps you from getting promoted."

George woke with one hell of a hangover. And he couldn't remember
why
. Of course, remembering
anything
with that vision of loveliness standing next to the bed that he didn't remember being in, either, was going to be difficult.
So what
do
you remember?
he chided himself.
Well certainly not
that
! Let's see...
He was walking down the street and someone called to him from an alley. Something about taking off his sandals, which was weird, because he was wearing penny-loafers. He couldn't see whoever it was very clearly, so he went over to get a better look.
That's when he saw the big mahunga ladder reaching up into the sky, with the fairies or whatever they were ascending and descending, and some dude with big wings and a righteous deep bass saying something about being with him...
Wait, no... that was the dream. The one after somebody anointed his head with a rock.
And then he woke up here. Strapped down. Naked. With a goddess hovering over him.
Okay, George, don't say anything
, he'd thought.
You'll just sound stupid. But man... there's got to be some way to get out of these restraints...
Then she was joined by another one.
Two! Two of them! Oh, my God! Those towel-heads were right! I wonder where the other seventy are? And how the hell do I get these straps off? They're like bloody Velcro!
Then the one came over and offered her tit. Well, hell! Tied up or not, he wasn't about to take a pass on that! She had luscious breasts and he...
...fell asleep fairly quickly.

"Which team needs more practice?"
"I don't know. They both do. The succubae are almost as good at draining libido as the malakhim are at restoring it."
"Well, I don't feel like getting written up again, so warm up the JV. We'll give him to the Suckers first. Then the JV can practice putting him back together. And find whoever recruited this one and point out that Jacob laid his head
on
a rock. He wasn't laid out
by
one."
"Fine. I'll go tell 'em. But I'm telling you... this one is going to surprise you. He almost had one of his hands free."
"Put him in the Garden of Ormon and remove his restraints. I'm sure they'll find him."
"Ormon?"
"Yes, Eden is down for maintenance."
"Again?"
"Yes, again. Now just do it."
"Hey! That would make a snappy slogan!"
"Would you just..."
"Going."

George thought it was strange when he woke up strapped to the table. Now he was
really
confused.
He was lying on his back in the middle of a bunch of lush, soft grass with an outrageous erection. And he didn't remember
why
. Again.
This time, though, there wasn't a goddess standing over him. Or Vestal Virgin. Or whatever. A chick more beautiful than any porn star he'd beaten off to. So he started looking around.
A grassy meadow, woods all around. A sky bluer than any he ever remembered. The muted call of birds and the low buzz of insects. And something watching him from the trees. Something with red eyes. Something he suddenly felt very uneasy about.
Of course, all that went the way of his gonads when she stepped out from the tree line. And it was definitely a She. Even at a hundred yards, he knew a She when he saw one. Like a Bruce Colero painting. The curves. The boobs. The long blonde hair. The barbed whip-like tail...
