This is the
third
entry in my series that began for the '
Literotica's 2019 Geek Pride Day Story Event!
' The initial entry was "You Promised Me Geeks" and the second was "You Promised Me Geeks 2: Asha & Tracy," in honor of the protagonists of these tales. 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.
These tales also intentionally intersect with the 'Chronicle: Mel & Chris' series in a shared universe (those tales are in the 'Fantasy & Science Fiction' category). The characters and events of the two will cross over but the characters will have their individual adventures and can be read in isolation.
Attentive readers will find at least one more intersection.
This story contains scenes that may be disturbing to some readers.
Thank you for reading.

Double Entry Bookkeeping
[End March, 1986]
"We're going here," Asha told Tracy as she slapped a photocopied picture on the table. The dark haired girl pushed aside her plate with its crumbs from the burger and fries she'd just finished. With Todd off the grill a week into spring quarter with his new job at La Caille she felt the burgers were no longer up to standard.
"Um, that doesn't look like any buildings close to here," Tracy said before she sipped deeply on her soda, "that in LA somewhere? You know I've never been and you promised to take me."
The picture portrayed a doorway with two square columns of stone each side of a pair of large, heavy wooden doors. Each column consisted of four circular columns that stood on plinths and surrounded by a series of square blocks with a few inches between each block. Above the doorway was an intricate sculpture of two figures and representations showing arts and crafts, along with a crown apparently representing royalty was Tracy's best guess.
"No, silly," Asha said as her voice lowered in tone and crimson hair bounced with her head shake, "this is the most amazing building in the world. Of course it's nowhere near a shithole like LA! Besides, we could've gone to LA over this past spring break, but you went to South fucking Dakota!"
"Excuse me for wanting to spend a week with my dad. It's a brand new complete T. Rex fossil they just found," Tracy said with an amused grin, "and also, your brother wanted to go. You could've come along."
"Yeah, bones. Cold weather. Rain. Mud. His kinds of things. How many of the crew wore five inch stilettos?"
"Stil...? No one!"
"Of course. So why would I go to a place like that?"
"Try it sometime, city girl, your brother was so cute, him and dad using tiny brushes to clean huge bones... And you got to go to Denver to meet Dave's parents..."
"At least it meant my brother was far away," Asha's smile had broadened at that, "and yeah, them and two sets of little step-siblings. What, a, well, interesting. Anyway, at least that meant your reporter girlfriend couldn't talk to me either. Back to this building. It's not in LA. This is the Chartered Accountants Hall, the world headquarters of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England & Wales," Asha's voice had deepened, become breathy. Her left hand had drifted off of the table.
"Um, ok, if you insist...," Tracy took another long, noisy suck on her straw while her slightly asymmetrical face danced with mirth as she stared at her friend.
"This is, oh, like, I just do NOT know how I hadn't heard of this building before," her voice dropped a note with every second word until it was little more than a husky whisper.
"England? Accountants?" Tracy took another noisy suck on her straw to fight back the laughing fit that suddenly threatened to derail this conversation. The cafeteria was sparsely occupied after the Monday lunch rush had cleared so there were few people she'd disturb. And her friend deserved to be disturbed.
"Of course," Asha said as her smile went wide, then she licked her lips and exhaled quickly, "it's in England. We're going to London. Their library has original copies of books by Luca Pacioli and James Peele! Five hundred years old!"
"You're touching your pussy, aren't you?" Tracy's grin finally broke free, but she kept the laughter silent.
"What? Oh, um...," Asha's arm moved in one last flurry then it brought her left hand back onto the table, "no, I'm not."
"Now you mean..."
"Well, it's Luca Pacioli, he invented double-entry bookkeeping!"
Tracy's sides shook but she still kept the laughter silent.
"Oh holy shit, double entry what?"
"Double-entry bookkeeping," Asha said, her voice still husky, "it's the entire basis of accounting! How can anyone not know that?"
"I got it, the whole double entry thing, THAT'S why you're so into accounting!"
Tracy closed her eyes and her entire body shook for a moment before her eyes opened.
"Like this fully inserted," she put her right elbow on the table, held up her hand in a fist, "and one of your butt plugs at the same time, huh? Or that game you play with Dave, his cock and your toys... double entry..."
"Huh? Oh..., um...," Asha stuttered, "well, hey, we're having a discussion about the wonders of accounting! Not what I like to do in my spare time!"
Tracy crossed her arms on the table in front of her, put her forehead on them and lost it, her hair a dark shield as it shook with the fit of laughter that finally broke through. Asha snorted, sucked noisily on her own straw until it gurgled loudly as the last of the liquid was drained.
Tracy raised her head, took a deep breath, her eyes dripped tears and carried on the laughter but she'd mastered her voice.
"Anyway," Tracy managed, paused, bit her tongue lightly, "Luca Packy double entry who? And where, London? You want to go to London?"
"Yeah, right after school ends. That's also when the Broiler gang supposed to be sentenced and I'm sure our intrepid girl reporter friend Jayne will want to interview us all over again about that little escapade. Instead, we can see Luca Pacioli, well, his books, he's an Italian master who described the accounting methods we still use! They have other stuff too! And we can go to see some shows, they have live theatre. Maybe we can find you a better ak TOR than your last one, since things not going anywhere with your chef..."
"Hmm... Hey, Todd's fine. He's just, like," Tracy's voice momentarily serious, "works all the time with his new job. And it's all the way south end of the Valley. I grew up that way but my parents long gone from there. He's a good fuck, just we never have time together. What about Dave? Or Aron?"
"Dave's going to be nuts finishing his dissertation, he'll be happy to not have any distractions. He's already freaked out. And dipshit is going to be in the mountains and deserts a lot."
"What? What's Aron doing?"
"A red headed angel has signed him up to do field work, tracking wildlife, studying animal shit, that kind of thing. It'll give him the material for his senior project and he'll get expenses and food and travel covered."
"Angel? Oh, Sam, from the Halloween party. What, they interested in each other or something?"
