1. A Different Kind Of Dungeon Master

    ... responsibility involved. Rachel and the rest of our ever-cycling set of adventuring companions implanted fragments of their souls into these characters they crafted, and placed them freely into my hands. They gave me permission to break their hearts if the story and the dice demanded it, and when they were finished cursing me, they thanked me, for making them feel.
    
    The feelings were real, but I could always at least technically tell myself that it was “only” a game. “Only” make-believe.
    
    This time was maybe kinda-sorta a little less “only” than usual.
    
    The weight of that pressed down on me, but also steadied me, like one of those balance poles tightrope walkers used, as I took my last penetrative turn of the encounter.
    
    While I rubbed myself against the soft, wet, post-orgasmic walls of her pussy, Rachel hummed happily to herself, vocally registering pleasure of a new, languid, unurgent variety.
    
    I paid attention to every detail, trying to engrave them into my memory, every breath, every glance and smile she shot up at me, the smoothness of her skin under my fingers, and the snug curve of her around me.
    
    I didn’t even make it to fifteen seconds.
    
    The orgasm I’d put off for so many moves hit me like an avalanche, sending shiny blurs across my vision and making me clutch Rachel’s beautiful hips just to hold myself upright.
    
    I stayed where I was, floating in shimmering clouds of magic, until it felt feasible that I might be able to move without falling. Then I ...
    ... slid out of her, let myself collapse on the bed beside her, and reached down for the box of tissues I kept beside it.
    
    While we passed the box back and forth, cleaning ourselves, catching our breath, I pieced words together in an almost comforting act of habit.
    
    “At the same moment when Prince Bastidio finishes inside you, you feel a final, magical energy surge, emanating out of that same place,” I spread my hands outward to illustrate. “Then it stops. The waves already in progress continue to spread out toward the bounds of his domain, leaving a peaceful stillness in their wake. You get the sense that this place is now secure, for better or worse, at least for now.”
    
    Rachel rolled over and propped her head up to smile at me. For a moment, I thought she was going to tease me for bothering with the conclusion.
    
    Then she said, “What about the sins of that guy I was looking into? Earnest Kniles?”
    
    “You never figured out about that,” I said. “Maybe next session.”
    
    “Next session, huh?” Rachel asked with a significant smirk, brushing a lock of hair behind her ear. “Okay.”
    
    I lay back on the bed, and she cuddled up next to me.
    
    Our breathing synchronized, slow and steady, until I started to wonder whether she had fallen asleep.
    
    Then, “So, what now?”
    
    She was asking me. Not the demon prince Bastidio, not the DM controlling Bastidio. Just me. Just Seth.
    
    I felt my shoulders pull up toward a shrug, even with her head resting on my chest. Every functioning system ...
