This is my entry for the '
2022 Literotica Geek Pride Story Event
!' Although it features many of the characters from my 2021 Geek Pride entry, "
Predators
," this tale can be read on its own.
I hope this tale properly maintains a sufficient sense of geekiness but also exhibits the requisite pride in being a geek. I won't define the term upfront, rather, the words to come will have to carry that burden.
Thank you for reading.

"I'm seeing pings back," the thin and dark young man said with enough volume to carry over the noise of three racks of computers and storage bays and the room fans that kept the air moving, "we have connections."
"Booting up last pair," a deeper voice without the slight accent from an unseen speaker responded, "let me know when you see them, Javi."
"Be nice when we get this all set and can work upstairs," Javi said, "it's too damn noisy in here!"
"What? I can't hear you. These discount computers are making too much noise!"
"We don't write the checks, Dark Star, we just meet the supplier in dark alleys."
"Indeed. I have green, Javi... check it then lets get the router going."
"Pinging..."
Javi hit the enter key and watched the green letters and numbers. He wondered who'd just entered the server room but didn't take his eyes from the screen. Umbra and Dani hadn't come in today to instead spend their time studying algorithms in the Uni library and neither had their putative boss Asha. She'd taken the day to meet with his brothers and inspect the demolition work his cousin was doing to prep the site for their custom car shop that she was financing.
"Sixty-eight...," he said.
"Sixty-eight, back at ya," came from the hidden speaker.
"Is Asha trying to kill you two with hypothermia?" It was a woman's voice, husky, smooth.
Javi turned.
"Hey, Miss Penelope. Computers like it cold. But it's only about sixty, we just need to mix in a bit of the outside air. Won't need the air conditioning until next summer. Oh, hey, sixty-nine!"
"Well," Penelope said, "that sounds like a good idea. Now, you two, I have hot cocoa. And marshmallows. Get out here, Dark Star."
She set a large thermos and a plastic bag of white cubes on a small desk as Javi stood up and stretched his back. The second young man stepped around a bank of computers and their collections of blinking LEDs.
"Whoa, that's quite the coat and hat, Boss," Dark Star said, "but... uh, your legs."
She laughed and reached into her brown, furry coat, and pulled out three plastic mugs as a cascade of dark brown hair shook under the equally furry hat. Both young men's eyes went to her chest as her movements spread the flaps of her coat. She laughed again and stood with her hands on her hips.
"Don't worry, the fur's fake. It IS 'no pants day,'" she said, "but you two have special dispensation. You can wear kilts next time."
"Uh, we substituted with no underwear," Javier said and he glanced at his crotch as he noticed his friend doing the same, they caught eyes and both shrugged before they offered soft grunts as they looked through the woman's transparent white blouse and the pale blue open cup bustier underneath it.
"Ah, it's so nice having straight boys around," Penelope said in a cheery tone as she looked at each male crotch as she uncapped the thermos and poured steaming, brown liquid into the three mugs and she set the thermos down and grabbed each coat flap and held them wide, "but if you need to cut some glass, let me know. This cold air has me hard as diamonds!"
She dropped the coat and grinned as both young men stared and tore open the bag of marshmallows and offered it. Javier and Dark Star let out slow exhales and grabbed a few each and dropped them into the hot cocoa. Penelope popped a marshmallow into her mouth but took only the one.
"Oh, ah, this is delicious," Dark Star said, "did you make this?"
Javier offered an enthusiastic nod after his own sip.
"Hell no," Penelope said and added an exhaled laugh, "Gerald claims it's his mother's recipe."
"A man of many talents," Javi said, "no wonder Dani wants to, uh..."
He bit his lower lip as he looked at Penelope. The woman smiled.
"She wants him to fuck her brainless," she said, "and to get that cute genius to brainless would be a hell of a lot of fucking. I hear she's been diligently practicing, but I fear it might be in vain. Unless a genie turns her into a guy."
"She's still very determined about it," Dark Star said as all three tapped mugs, "but, Boss, aren't your legs cold."
She shifted and pushed her left leg through the long slit in her knee-length skirt to expose the top of the stocking and above that bare skin that was visible to the fold where thigh met hip.
"These stockings are quite warm," she said, "and, I don't have to work in here! Now, on that note, why are you two in here?"
The two young men looked at each other and Dark Star huffed.
"We have no idea how Asha got these new computers," he said, "each server has eight processors that can barely see the 'bleeding edge' in the rear view mirror. Five years ago, most of this tech didn't exist. But, these cost... uh, hell of a lot!"
"And you guys unloaded them off a truck in a dark alley at one a.m. Not like we're paying retail here. But, yeah, Leather Boy stole the tech from the aliens," Penelope said and both young men grunted, "yes, that's where he got it all. Trust me on that. Posted it on the internet whatsit that we're all having to use now."
"Uh, yeah," Dark Star said, "hopefully we'll meet him and Devil Girl. Umbra plans to fuck both of them."
"She'll have better luck there than Dani with Gerald," Penelope said, "when they get back from Mallomar. But, for now..."
"Oh, yeah. So we're testing these out, we have the new router set up. Once we're sure it's all hooked up and working, we can mostly work upstairs or even from home. Those new Super Red Fruit computers Asha bought for all of us... she shouldn't... uh, spend so much."
"Don't worry about that," Penelope said, "like you said, she knows how to get discounts. What's a router?"
"It connects that new T-one line, uh, yeah. The upgraded internet link we had Asha get for the lab here. It'll handle what you did before, but it's also optimized to the exchange in New York. But... uh..."
He furrowed his brow and sipped at his cocoa as Penelope and Javi looked at him. Then he looked at the far wall until the older woman focused his attention when she shook the thermos. He smiled and she refilled his mug.
"Ok. Even with the T-one, we have an issue."
"Oh? Asha promised me you four were the best there were."
He smiled at her. "Oh, we're that. But it's the speed of light. We're... not close to New York. Our packets will just take longer, even avoiding TCP like we plan to. And Asha wants 'high frequency trading.'"
"I won't ask what tee see pee is," she said with a laugh and Dark Star added a chuckle, "but, is anyone else doing this? For real?"
He looked at Javi, who spoke quickly and grinned. "I still don't know what the fuck we're doing."
"Yeah," Dark Star added his own grin, "NO ONE knows what we're doing."
"Umbra and Dani are working out the stock analysis and predictive algorithms, and you two convert that to code and get these systems optimized for them and for talking to the boring-ass mainframes in New York. And we take advantage of rapid and tiny fluctuations in stock prices to make millions."
Both young men looked at her. Then at each other before they both nodded at the woman.
"This idea might've started with a certain redhead with the most awesome rack around, but that doesn't mean I haven't been paying attention."
"Uh," Javi said, "your rack..."
"Is pretty spectacular, too," she used her free hand to hold a coat flap open for a moment and grinned, "but something about these machines?"
"We need to redo chunks of the operating systems," Dark Star said after his and Javi's eyes were freed when she let her coat mostly cover her chest, "since we don't need everything and some of it'll get in the way of analyzing and predicting trades. But we've already designed most of that and can do it remotely once this is all up. We're moving stuff into our new apartment, but next week is dead week, then finals. So we likely won't be ready for trading until end of January but no classes between Christmas and New Years so we should get lots of it done."
"When Asha first tried to convince me about this," Penelope said, "she warned me it might take a year or more to get set up..."
"Uh, well..."
"Then she found you four. Hey, isn't Umbra running her train in January? I promised her I'd arrange for a few guys I know to join in. Just need the date."
