AUTHOR'S NOTE: The stories contained in this series are not so much chapters of one continuous storyline, but rather different circumstances build around the same concept. For that reason, they can be read in any order.

My dreams have always led to new perceptions of reality, and the one epiphany that came over the course of a week, two weeks ago, changed my life completely.
Whether it drew me to build one machine that could both replicate and merge copies of a person or merely allowed us both to experience one shared, reliable dreamscape where such a machine or concept is possible is irrelevant. What is relevant is that both my girlfriend and I are jealous creatures, and we have taken full advantage of such a concept.

As we walked out of the fetish store together, new strap-on attachment in her hands and my wallet a little lighted, she bounced in her steps.
"What has you so giddy."
"I just can't wait to try it out."
"So we'll go straight back home, skipping the rest of our errands. I expected you might want that."
We reached my car. "No, I said I CAN'T WAIT," she replied sharply, shoving me against the hood of the car. Dropping the bag, she reached around my waist, unfastening my pants and jerking both of them and my underwear down hard enough to bring them both to my ankles.
"Stay there."
"But..."
"STAY. UNDERSTAND?"
"Alright."
Jill spanked me. "What do you say, Jack?"
"Yes, Mistress. Sorry Mistress."
Her voice immediately softened. "That's better. If you're good, I'll give you a nice treat."
"Thank you Mistress, you're too generous."
"Don't discourage me." The edge in her voice started rising again.
"Yes Mistress."
"Much better."
