The geek never gets the hot girl. Everyone knows that. Sure, Lenard does finally get Penny in "The Big Bang," but everyone knows that show is fiction. The geek may be good looking in his own right, or he may not be – but society has determined that regardless of his looks, he can never rate over a three. Even if his money can double that score, he will never land a babe above a 6. How do I know? I was always the geek.
In high school, I found myself fascinated by the sciences. I wanted to know everything. I excelled in my classes, and so was largely shunned by my peers. I had hormones just like everyone else. My body underwent the same change everyone else underwent, and I researched it to understand it. I was fascinated by the encyclopedia entry entitled "coitus," which reported that "the intense movements of the penis inside the vagina may lead to a mutual orgasm, which is generally very satisfying for both individuals." Do you want to know why I remember that 1980 encyclopedia entry? It was the closest I got to sex my entire high school career – unless you count my hands and the lingerie section of the Sears and JC Penny catalogs.
Girls tended to run away if they saw me coming. I had no natural social graces. I never got learn any, because I never got to interact with the opposite sex in a normal way. And so I stayed at home – sexually frustrated and repressed. I fit in the only place I could – in my classes. I excelled, and went off to college where it was more of the same. Do you know how many girls were even enrolled in my Physics department? Four. Two were physically nondescript, and I can't even remember what they looked like. One was a very sexually confidant thin blonde that only spoke to me once in four years – and that was to tell me how she was willing to sleep with the professor to get an A in his class. The other one – well she was the stuff my dreams were made of. I don't remember her name anymore, but she was olive skinned with a flawless complexion, endless green eyes, thick wavy hair, and a scent that lingered in the room when she left. She left shortly after I arrived. Often.
All of this is to help you understand what shaped me – what made me act the way I did. I had red blood just like any other guy. I was good enough looking that I was picked as a doppelganger for Richard Dreyfus. I bet my dick was bigger, too. I studied sex enough to become an expert with the few women that would have me. But I always wanted more. I always figured it would never happen, either.
After earning my PhD in Physics, I took a research position with a well-known University. I won't tell you which one because it is not important to the story. I also don't want anyone from there to figure out who I am, and lay claim to the invention that changed my life: teleportation across time and space.
I'd like to say that I studied the fabric of time until I understood how it could be warped and twisted at will. The fact couldn't be any farther from that. I got lucky. I was in the right spot at the right time to take advantage of the side effects of the apparatus my fellow Physicists were building in the room above me. They were unexpected, unusual, and completely unnoticed by anyone else. My colleagues were trying to isolate antineutrinos, but stopped the experiment when they were unsuccessful. I noticed that a banana on my desk was in a different spot and less ripe one day than it had been the last.
I told no one – but three months later, I had a working pocket sized prototype teleportation device that could move me and anything within 5 feet of me at will through time and space. I won't bore you with the details of how it worked, because you either wouldn't believe me or you would – and either of these would be bad for our story which involving healthy doses of teleportation and a significant bit of willing suspension of disbelief.
Any geek worthy of the name has thought of what to do if he can move through time: get rich. I decided that the best product to peddle across time was Viagra. Think about it. It's small, cheap, and a complete miracle in previous civilizations. Kings would pay almost limitless riches for its effects – for what good is being an all-powerful sovereign with the right to fuck the most beautiful girls in the kingdom if you can't harden enough to penetrate them?
I secured my stash of pills from a dubious online supply house that charged a buck and a half a pill. With the help of Google translate, I managed to print out a stack handbills that explained in great detail just what one could expect from my wares. I decided on ancient Sparta, the cradle of democracy. I stepped back 2700 years into the past – about a century before the monarchy dissolved into democracy. I picked this time, because the current 60 year old king had just married a young bride, and he had 10 more years before he would kick the bucket. Wikipedia is amazing.
I managed to find a market and distribute my handbills. They drew immediate attention. They were printed on the finest paper anyone had ever seen – and I was quickly summoned to the king. He was interested in my wares, and I gave him a sample, promising to return the following day.
That afternoon, I wandered aimlessly through the city, killing time. I followed my fancy through a different market until I came upon something I hadn't even considered – a slave auction. I had no idea how much was being bid, but the general idea was very clear. They bought and sold humans here. I resolved not to lose my teleporter – but I also began to question the wisdom of bringing back gold. I saw an old geezer smile in triumph and lead away his beautiful new girl with her hands tied behind her back, and I suddenly wanted in – in more ways than one.
The following day, I made my way back to see the king. They recognized me outside the palace, and ushered me in. The king gestured that he wanted more pills, and I showed him the remaining 2 dozen. He gestured to his money bag, wanting to know how much I needed. I shook my head, and drew a girl with her hands tied behind her back. I wanted a slave girl. Communicating this was surprisingly easy.
