Author's note:
Thanks to everyone who read the previous parts! After a bit of a hiatus from writing I'm glad to see people still enjoy my stories. This chapter has less action compared to the previous two but will serve as a build-up for the upcoming events.
----------------------------
The girl in front of Thomas was standing with her arms crossed. She was wearing a tight spandex jumpsuit and she looked like she'd caught Thomas stealing the most precious cookie from her jar.
"Well, did you lose your ability to speak along with your judgement? What the heck are you doing?"
"Uh, I dunno," Thomas answered, not knowing what exactly she was referring to. He'd done so many things he wasn't supposed to do it was best not to admit to any of them.
"You just decided to leave semen-covered gear in my control room? Really? Is this what they teach you in basic? I swear, I am so close of kicking you off my squad right now."
"Sorry, um," he looked at her spandex-covered chest, trying to ignore the breast-shaped bumps underneath and focus on the name plate. "Sorry, miss 207. I didn't think clearly."
"I can see that. You know, it's normal to end up with contaminated equipment. Everyone loses control every now and then. I mean, at least you didn't ejaculate on, or in, anyone. But come on. You need to call the maintenance crew to clean the gear, and that sample sleeve must be sterilized along with the legitimate test equipment that you somehow managed to use properly."
"Sorry. Sorry. I seem to have forgotten some things."
She breathed deep a few times, closing her eyes. She looked to be in her early twenties. Pretty face with shoulder-length blonde hair. And that spandex suit was not hiding many details.
"It is fine, 2077. I know basic training is kinda...basic. But here at operational units we have rules that must be followed. What if a breast measurement is corrupted because you didn't reset the instrument after use? A female agent may be having developmental issues and we don't catch it because the measurement was wrong. Then we will have a flawed agent that can be a risk to the authenticity of the simulation. Then what?"
She looked at him.
"I don't know, miss."
"Well...then...I don't exactly know either, but it's not good! Just try to focus on your work, please."
"I will. I promise."
"Much appreciated. Oh, and 2077?"
"Yes?"
"If you feel you gotta empty your...you know...before a mission, just use the Spa. Surely they at least taught you that?"
"Uh...I don't think they did."
"Figures. Speaking of...why do you have sim clothes? Are you heading there for the night?"
"Sim clothes...oh right, yes, these authentic college student clothes I'm wearing. Yes, I am planning to do something in the, erm, simulation. Absolutely."
"You don't need to be weird about that. I go there occasionally myself. Just get your ass back here tomorrow like 90 minutes before your shift and find me in the office. I'll show you the Spa You have the 10 PM shift again, right?"
"Yeah. Uh, which one is your office again?"
"Very funny, 2077. Obviously my office number is 207. Well, have a good night."
"You too, boss."

Thomas showered for a good hour, trying to jerk off again but unable to do so. His dick was too sensitive to be touched and absolutely refused to get hard. After cleaning his body, but unable to purify his tainted soul, Thomas stumbled to his dorm room, ignored the noise complaints from his roommate, and went to sleep.
He slept nowhere near enough and was still half asleep when his 9 AM math class started. His mind was going through the events of the last night. When he got to Christine and Lara he couldn't avoid developing a raging boner, but was lucky to be wearing a very baggy hoodie that hid it well.
The TA, Lina, was from one of the Eastern Europe countries that Thomas could never remember. She was wearing a tight black skirt and a white button-up shirt that was very form-fitted around her midsection. He'd have to check her last name from the syllabus in case he'd have another chance to visit the monitor room.
After class Thomas headed for an early lunch, and almost choked on his noodles when Christine suddenly sat opposite to him.
"Hi Thomas, can I talk to you?"
Whatever her reason was, it wouldn't be good.
"Yeah, yeah, of course."
"I want to talk about yesterday."
"Yesterday...um...which part?"
In theory she should have no memory of what happened in the room. But he didn't know that for a fact.
"When you asked me out, of course."
Phew. Not too bad.
"Right. That."
"I just don't want to have any awkwardness over that. I really like you as a lab partner and want to keep working with you. But right now I'm not in a good place to start any new relationships. Another time...maybe. You are funny and nice to me. So really, it's not you, it's me, okay?"
His mind had zoned off, reconstructing the scene from last night when he had almost came on her face. After measuring her breast size and pubic hair length.
"...Thomas. Did I hurt you?"
He snapped back to reality.
"Oh no no. Sorry, I was just thinking about math homework. I understand. I promise there will be no awkwardness from me. I won't do anything weird or anything like that."
Aside from jerking off to your naked body when you are in trance, of course. And your roommate's.
Her mouth turned into a smile. "I'm glad! Thanks Thomas. I felt bad about it but I also didn't want to make any promises that I might not be able to keep. Or lie to you."
"Thanks, Christine. I appreciate your honesty. Thanks for letting me down nicely."
"Thanks for understanding. Anyway, I gotta go now. See you later!"

After his lunch Thomas thought about going to his dorm room to jerk off while his roommate was in his chess club meeting, but he decided to do his homework early for once. When he was done it was already time for dinner. Another bowl of overpriced student restaurant noodles later he walked to his new "job".
Control Room 8 was empty again. His bag was in the room, but he could tell it had been moved. He opened it and saw the contents cleaned and neatly organized. Ready for another adventure whenever duty called.
He grabbed the tablet since it felt like the right thing to do and headed out to search for the office 207.
