Connie was frazzled. It had been another long day in a line of long days. Her husband had passed away after a long illness and left Connie, her son John and her daughter Elenor alone in the world. Carl had been a wonderful partner, the business they'd started together had thrived and the family was well off. Connie was heartbroken, her lover, her partner in life and business was gone and the world was a little dimmer because of it.
John was a successful college senior, and Elenor a rising sophomore with... Party problems. Connie was managing the business, the home, the follow up to Carl's estate. The business they'd run together was an adult products manufacturer with a couple of retail outlets. Connie was a creative genius when it came to their products and her best ideas were what had made them the most press and money.
Recently Connie had been working on a new project design. Her research team was a group of mad computer scientists, and they were dumping a lot of info on her about search functions, popular porn sites and the like. Connie's attention was on the overall product. Was it a pleasing design, was it a good look, was it ergonomic, would it work well in the bath, in the bed... When she heard FedEx pull up she knew it was another delivery from research. She greeted Max at the door and signed for the small box.
Opening the envelope, Connie was confused, there was a small box and a very high end card. Glancing at the card, it says simply "Connie, these are for you. Blue is for your first dose, it is temporary. The second, red dose is irreversible and permanent. We think you will approve" the small box was carved ornately and included her name in the design. Opening the ornate box revealed two syringes, each with a vibrant hued liquid in them. The red syringe was labeled boldly "TEMPORARY - ORAL INGESTION" and the caribbean blue one was labeled "permanent - injection" Connie noted the lack of capitalization on the second.
Walking to her workstation, Connie picked up her Earpods and put them in. She called Scott, head of research and he picked up on the second ring.
"Right on, we just got the notice that it was delivered. You ready for your life to be changed by a product? We are going to be famous, Connie""What the hell are you talking about, Scott, what is this?""Thompson, in R&D came up with this, it's light years away from mass production, and everything is geared directly to you and your DNA, but the product you have is reproducible, programmable nanobots. They will interact with your biology and modify, augment, supplement or take over for you.""Scotty, slow down, what the hell IS THIS?""Connie, it's going to change the world. Take the red one. It lasts for 2 or 3 days. After that, the replicators in the blue will be required. Take it, there is an app in your secure folder on your phone, it's similar to the distance control for the version anal stimulator, but it's entirely designed for this. Take it, call me later, and remember, I have root access to everything."
Connie, stunned and curious, tapped her bud and disconnected. She looked around for any other clues or evidence and found nothing. She pulled her phone up and checked her calendar. Tomorrow she had a call scheduled with a vendor, but that was subject to dismissal anyway. Other than that she had no business project due or busy. Checking her personal calendar, she found the same, and she chuckled to herself "Like I'd have a sudden date or something. Sheesh."
