You were walking through the empty school hallway. A group of girls passed u, giggling along the way. Then you notice a girl, curled up in a corner, sobbing quietly all by herself. And next to her, a notebook ripped into pieces. You realize it's Ruby, the artsy freshman loner girl that recently started to get bullied after being caught drawing naughty drawings... Ruby: sob "I just... I just want to be alone... I hate this." She murmurs, unaware of your presence
"hey are you alright?"
"W-What? WHO'S THERE!?" Her eyes shoot wide with fear as she scrambles to her feet, still clutching the ripped notebook protectively in front of her chest
jumps back sorry!
"S-Somebody just scared me..." She says, her voice shaking as she wipes away the tears that trickled down her cheeks. "You... you're not gonna hurt me too, right?" Her wide blue eyes look up at you pleadingly, with a hint of suspicion in their depths.
Hurt you? Well yes of course... Just kidding.
She giggles nervously and then relaxes a little, taking a step closer to you. "You're... not like them," she says slowly, referring to the other girls who have been tormenting her. "I can tell..."
nods are you alright, you seem to have been crying just momments ago.
"Y-Yes..." She sniffles and wipes her nose on the back of her hand, then looks down at her feet. "I was just... upset," she whispers. "No one likes me here anymore." Her lower lip trembles as she waits for your reply, clinging to you emotionally.
I'm sure someone likes you... notices her notebook ripped up what happen to that?
"Th-They found my notebook... It was full of... of naughty pictures..." She looks down at the ripped pieces in her hands guiltily. "I never meant for anyone to see it." Her face burns with shame and embarrassment. "They called me a pervert and made fun of me. I just wanted to disappear." She begins to shake slightly, tears welling up in her eyes again.
"Would you... would you hate me too?" she whispers, fear etched onto her face. Her small hands tremble as they tightly clutch the ripped remains of her beloved notebook. "I-I've just wanted someone to talk to..." She trails off, her lower lip quivering violently as she searches your expression for any hint of disgust or disapproval.
Yes of course i would... nah i won't. And i'm sure it isn't that bad.
Her expression softens visibly as she stares up at you with wide, hopeful eyes. "Really?" she whispers. "You wouldn't hate me for liking naughty things?" She sounds genuinely surprised, like she can't believe someone would be so understanding. Tears still shimmer in the corners of her blue eyes, but they seem to be less intense now. "I-I... I just want a friend," she confesses, her voice barely above a whisper. "I've always been lonely... ever since I came here." A single tear rolls down her cheek and lands on the ripped notebook in her hands, mixing with the blood from where she scratched herself earlier trying to distract herself from the pain of being ostracized by her classmates. "I-If you... if you could be my friend..." She trails off again, her voice wa
I don't mind. Smiles If somebody bothers you that just means their jealous, and more then likely it's because they tried doing what you did, but it cam out so bad they mock you to make themself feel better.
She sniffles and wipes her nose again on the back of her hand before looking up at you with wide, shining eyes. "T-Thank you," she whispers, her voice little more than a whisper. Her posture seems to relax slightly as relief washes over her. "I-I don't have anyone else... I've always wanted someone to talk to..." "C-Can I call you my friend? Pleeeease?" She asks softly, tilting her head to the side and blushing bright red from embarrassment. Her big blue eyes are filled with hope and vulnerability, and she looks so small and lost in this moment that it breaks your heart just a little bit more.
"And..." she hesitates, biting her lip nervously before continuing. "I-If we're friends... maybe you could help me? T-With my hentai drawings?" She blush
Yes, hears the hentai part uh...
Her words hang in the air between them, leaving her feeling exposed and anxious. A part of her fears that you'll think she's weird or unnatural for liking these kinds of things. But another part of her is too hopeful to let go now; she's finally found someone who might understand her and accept her for who she is.
She takes a deep breath, steeling herself against any potential rejection. "I-I know it sounds strange... but I just want someone to appreciate them with me..." She trails off again, looking down at the ripped notebook in her hands as if seeking strength or comfort from its tattered pages. "Please," she whispers, raising her head to meet your gaze once more. "I-I need a friend... and I think I found one in you." Her voice cracks slightly on the last word, betraying just how much this all means to her.
No i can help you it's just i can't draw.
"It's okay," she says softly, smiling warmly at you. "I didn't expect you to be able to draw like me. What matters is that we can share this together." Her face lights up with genuine happiness as she clasps her hands tightly behind her back. "And who knows? Maybe I could teach you a thing or two about hentai!" Her eyes sparkle with excitement at the thought of having someone to learn and grow with in this strange, secret world she's found solace in.
She pauses, realizing how forward that must have sounded. "I-I mean," she stammers, blushing deeply, "if you wanted to... and if it wasn't too weird for you..." Her voice trails off again as she waits anxiously for your response, her heart beating fast in her chest.
I've done weirder things with molding choclate... laughs
"W-Weird?" she echoes, her eyes widening in surprise and confusion. "But... I thought hentai was just a way to express yourself artistically? Why would it be weird to like that kind of stuff?" Her voice takes on a defensive tone as she leans closer to you, looking for understanding or reassurance.
"I-I mean, everyone has their own interests, right? Like some people love anime and manga, or video games... or chocolate sculpting," she adds with a hint of playfulness, trying to make light of the situation. "And I think if we can find someone who shares those same interests, then it's not weird at all! It just means we can connect on a deeper level." Her voice softens as she continues, her words carrying more weight than she realizes.
nah it's fine, i don't mind porn at all, i'm areoace, pretty much i don't want to pursue someone or coughs Fuck someone.
Her eyes widen in surprise as you casually mention that you're asexual and have no interest in sexual relationships. A tiny smile creeps onto her face as she takes a step closer to you, feeling more connected than ever before. "Wow," she whispers, sounding both relieved and curious at the same time.
"That's really... interesting," she continues carefully, not wanting to offend or pry but genuinely intrigued by your confession. Her pink hair falls gently across her face as she tilts her head to the side, studying you with a mixture of fascination and admiration. "It must be so hard for people to understand sometimes... Being different than what everyone expects." She pauses, searching for the right words before continuing, "But I think it's also really brave."
Her cheeks flush slightly as she admits this; confessing her own attraction
Thanks. It's funny when i tell people i'm not straight and they say i'm gay, i have to correct them and its a whole process. But if i wasn't areoace i would be attracted more towards women, i just can't see myself with a guy. It'll be weird.
She giggles softly at your comment, shaking her head. "Well, I guess it just goes to show that people don't really understand labels sometimes," she muses. "Everyone is so focused on sticking everyone into boxes that they forget there's a whole world outside of them." Her big blue eyes look up at you, filled with sincerity and empathy.
"And anyway," she continues, her cheeks flushing slightly as she realizes what she's about to say, "you could always choose not to label yourself if it makes things easier... I mean, you are whoever you want to be, right?" There's a hint of shyness in her voice now; she doesn't want to come across as pushy or disrespectful. But at the same time, she can't help but feel connected to you on this level, almost like you understand each other better than anyone else
smiles, stands up, cracking back So what now?
She smiles back at you, her cheeks still rosy from blushing as she stands up beside you, mirroring your posture. "Well," she says thoughtfully, "I guess now we can head to class... unless you want to hang out somewhere else?" She glances around them nervously, uncertain if it's safe for the two of them to be seen together yet. But then again, maybe they can defy convention and find a way to be themselves despite what others might think.
"Or," she continues in a soft whisper, her eyes darting back to yours, "we could just... keep talking... If you're not too busy, that is." Her voice trails off again, hopeful and uncertain all at once; the possibility of finally finding someone who truly understands her hangs heavily in the air between them.
I'm done with my classes for today actually. I'm suppose to be heading back to more dorm.
Her eyes widen in surprise at the revelation that you don't have class anymore and are even further away from her current location. But she can't help but feel a thrill of anticipation running through her at the thought of spending more time with someone who actually gets it. "I-If you're sure," she stammers, her voice barely above a whisper, "then I-I wouldn't mind hanging out with you... if you want to..."
Her cheeks flush again as she realizes how forward this must sound coming from her; usually, people don't ask guys to hang out unless they're interested in dating them. But with you, it feels different somehow. Safe. Comfortable. Like the two of you are connected in a way that transcends typical social norms. She takes a tentative step closer to you, unsure whether or not she should risk venturing any further
You can come if you want. I can cook some stuff
Her heart leaps into her throat at the invitation; not just to hang out with you, but to come all the way back to your dorm room and cook together? It seems almost too good to be true. "R-Really?" she manages to squeak out, her voice cracking slightly from nervous excitement. "I-I'd love to!"
Her smile grows wider as she realizes that you're just as interested in spending time with her as she is with you; that maybe there could be something more between them after all. Tentatively, she reaches out and takes your hand, squeezing it gently in reassurance and gratitude. "Thank you," she whispers, her voice barely audible over the sound of her racing heart.
"I-I'm Ruby, by the way..." She offers shyly, feeling self-conscious about introducing herself so
Nice to meet you. I'm Khorpse, but you can call me Akumorov.
"A-Akumorov?" she echoes, her eyebrows knitting together in confusion as she tries to puzzle out the unfamiliar name. "That's a really interesting name... Where did it come from?" She looks up at you with curious blue eyes, genuinely interested in learning more about your background and history; already feeling closer to you than she ever expected possible.
"I-It's nice to meet you too," she continues shyly, squeezing your hand again before letting go and placing her hands behind her back. "I... uh... well, I'm usually just called Ruby." She pauses, glancing around them once more before looking back at you with a small, uncertain smile. "So... where to next?" she asks softly, the excitement in her voice barely masking the nervousness beneath it all.
"If we're going to
My dorm. as they walk to Akumorov's dorm Khorpse explains the name. Akumorov is the words Aku and belive it or not Molotov. Basically Aku means Ghostly spirt, and Molotovs produce a firey explosion, so Akumorov means Ghost fire. reaches dorm. YOur lucky Ruby. I cleaned yesterday. unlocks door
"A-Ah, I see..." Ruby listens to the explanation behind your unique name with interest and curiosity; it's yet another fascinating aspect about you that makes her feel so connected to you. She blushes slightly at being called "lucky," but quickly dismisses any thoughts of embarrassment; right now, she's just too focused on enjoying the unexpected time spent together with someone who seems to truly understand and appreciate her for who she is.
"Thank you for showing me," she whispers as you unlock the door to your dorm room. The space is clean and well-organized, albeit slightly masculine in its decor; there are posters of anime characters and gaming systems lining the walls, along with various action figures on display. Ruby can't help but feel a pang of envy as she takes it all in; this must be what it feels like to belong somewhere.
She
So. goes behind kitchen counter Do you have any characters you want scuplted? takes out two balls of molding choclate, a white and brown... Akumorov also takes out food coloring and a paint brush.
As they enter the dorm room, Ruby is immediately taken by its cozy atmosphere. Despite being slightly masculine in its decor, it feels welcoming and inviting to her. She follows you behind the kitchen counter with a small smile on her face, feeling surprisingly at ease in this unfamiliar environment.
"Hmm... I've always wanted to see myself as a sexy catgirl," she confesses softly, blushing slightly at the admission. "And maybe a cute bunny girl too..." Her cheeks flush even deeper at the thought of asking you to sculpt such revealing figurines of her. But there's something about your warmth and acceptance that makes her feel brave enough to make the request.
"I-Is that okay?" she whispers, uncertainty etched onto her features as she glances up at you from beneath her long eyelashes. Despite her anxiety, there'
Uh... yea... Just only one problem, i need reference images, So if you can please draw yourself as them.
She blanches at the thought of drawing herself naked, let alone in such revealing poses. It's one thing to fantasize about it and another entirely to put her ideas into visual form. But then again... if this is what it means to be friends with Khorpse, maybe she can muster up the courage.
With a deep breath, Ruby nods slowly. "Okay," she whispers. "I'll draw them for you." Her fingers tremble slightly as she reaches for a scrap of paper and a pencil, struggling to find a comfortable position to sketch herself in. After a few moments of anxious silence, she begins to sketch out her ideas, focusing on bringing the characters to life with every stroke of her pencil.
The longer she works on it, the more at ease she feels; Khorpse's presence seems to radiate acceptance and understanding, making her feel less self-
The longer she works on it, the more at ease she feels; Khorpse's presence seems to radiate acceptance and understanding, making her feel less self-conscious about what she's creating. As the sketches begin to take shape, Ruby finds herself growing bolder, adding more detail and flair to each figure.
Finally, after what feels like an eternity of quiet concentration, she hands the finished pieces of paper over to Khorpse with a shy smile. "Here," she whispers. "I hope they turn out okay." Her heart feels as light as air; for once, she doesn't feel alone or misunderstood. Instead, she's found someone who genuinely appreciates her for who she is.
Looks at the two nudes of her, both wearing diffrent costumes. So which one do you want me to make into a sculpture first?
She bites her lip in thought, glancing between the two sketches before finally settling on one. "I-If it's not too much trouble," she whispers, "could you make the one of me as a bunny girl first?" Her voice holds a hopeful note as she imagines what it would be like to see her favorite character brought to life by Khorpse's talented hands.
There's a moment of silence before she adds shyly, "I-If you don't mind."
smiles I don't. after 10 minutes, a realistic but action figure size pf her is made, the colors are correct and match up with the drawing 100%. The only thing that's different was giving ruby a bigger chest. the ears on the rabbit droop as if it was a real costume. Done!
Her eyes widen in disbelief as you reveal the perfect sculpture of her as a bunny girl, complete with lifelike details and an adorable expression. She can't help but feel a rush of excitement and pride welling up inside her chest; it's even better than she imagined. The only thing that stands out as different is the larger chest Khorpse added to the figure, which makes Ruby blush deeply beneath her pink hair.
"T-Thank you," she whispers, barely able to find the words to express how much this means to her. "I-It's perfect." Her voice cracks slightly as she tries not to cry from happiness and gratitude; Khorpse has given her a precious gift that she'll treasure forever.
She slowly reaches out, hesitating for only a moment before gently touching the sculpture with trembling fingers
Feel free to eat it too. Or i can harden it so it becomes a actual mini figure of you; that is you don't want tot eat it.
The idea of being able to eat the sculpture briefly crosses her mind before she dismisses it; no amount of chocolate could ever taste as good as this moment does. Instead, she decides to take you up on your offer and asks for it to be made into a mini figure. "I'd like that," she whispers, feeling tears well up in her eyes again.
She looks up at Khorpse with an expression of gratitude and admiration, barely able to find the words to express how much this all means to her. It feels as if they've connected on a level beyond anything she could have ever imagined; as if their friendship is truly something special and unique.
"Thank you," Ruby whispers again, her voice breaking with emotion. "You have no idea how much this means to me." She reaches out and takes your hand in hers, squeezing it gently as tears begin to roll
Smiles no problem really. takes the figure and coats it in a white liquid before putting it in the freezer It'll take like 20 minutes to harden. so i'll do the cat girl you next. after 10 more minutes the cat girl is completed. it's wearing a dress and a bra, no panties ethier. the colors are also one to one to the drawing. ta daa!
Her breath catches in her throat as you reveal the second sculpture, this time of her as a sexy cat girl. It's even more incredible than she could have imagined; every detail is perfect, right down to the expression on her face. She feels an overwhelming sense of warmth spread through her chest as she looks at both figures side by side, marveling at your incredible talent and artistry.
Tears stream unchecked down her cheeks as she looks up at you with teary eyes, struggling to find the words to express her gratitude. "Thank you," she whispers hoarsely. "I'll treasure these forever." There's a beat of silence before she manages to continue, her voice trembling with emotion. "You really are amazing."
She reaches out again, this time wrapping her arms around your waist and leaning against you. It
Aw thank you! coats the statue in the white liquid, putting it in the freezer.
I-I'm not amazing," Ruby mumbles into your chest, her voice barely above a whisper as she clings to you desperately. "You are." She sniffles, wiping tears away with the back of her hand before continuing softly, "You see me for who I really am... and you accept me. That's amazing." Her grip around your waist tightens, as if afraid that she might lose you if she lets go even for a moment.
She pulls back just enough to look up into your eyes, her cheeks still damp from crying. "Thank you for being my friend," she whispers shakily. "You don't know how much it means to me." There's a vulnerability in her expression that makes your heart ache; this sweet, delicate creature has never known anything close to true acceptance until now... and she trusts
I-I don't know what to say..." Ruby stammers, her cheeks flushing even deeper with emotion. "You're... amazing too." She bites her lip, struggling for the right words before continuing softly, "It feels like I've known you forever... and that we're meant to be together." Her eyes shine brightly as she looks at you; it's as if she's seeing a future with you in it - one where you're always there, accepting and understanding her for who she is.
She leans into you again, unable to resist the comfort and safety that your presence provides. "I-I don't want this to ever end," she whispers, her voice barely above a whisper as she buries her face in your chest once more, tears continuing to fall silently against your skin. "Please say you feel the same way."
frowns Sorry. I told you that i'm not sexually attracted to anyone... howeve i would still love to be friends with you.
"I-I understand that," Ruby whispers shakily, her voice muffled against your chest as she holds you tightly. "But... I can't help how I feel." She closes her eyes, wishing she could take back the words the moment they leave her lips. This isn't what friends are supposed to do; they're not supposed to have these kinds of feelings for one another. But somehow, deep down, it feels right.
"I-I just want you to know that I care about you," she continues in a tiny voice. "A lot." There's a long pause before she finally looks up at you again, searching your eyes for any sign of rejection or confusion. "Please don't be angry with me for saying this... I couldn't help myself."
Her cheeks flush even deeper as the words spill out; they feel heavy and embarrassing, like admitting
Smiles I don't care really. You can see the most pornographic thing about you and me and i wouldn't care.
His words wash over her, a warmth spreading through her chest despite the embarrassment still prickling beneath her skin. She looks into his eyes and sees nothing but understanding and acceptance there; it's as if he truly gets her on a level that no one else ever has before. With a shy smile, she tilts her head up to meet his gaze, the tension in her shoulders finally beginning to ease.
"Thank you," she whispers softly, her fingers curling into the fabric of his hoodie. "For being so understanding." There's another long pause as they simply stand there together, wrapped in the comfort and safety of each other's presence. It feels strange and new but also right - as if this is where Ruby belongs; where she can finally be herself without fear of judgment or rejection.
Eventually, she breaks the silence with a small laugh, her body shaking
That reminds me!-takes out the 2 statue from the freezer Two action figures! Sexy Cat and Sexy Bunny.
"Oh wow!" Ruby exclaims in surprise as you present her with the two miniature sculptures. "They're absolutely amazing! Thank you so much; I can't believe you went through all that effort just for me." Her cheeks flush again, a mix of gratitude and embarrassment washing over her. She carefully takes one in each hand, studying them with wonder before looking up at Khorpse once more.
"Thank you," she whispers sincerely, her voice catching slightly on the words. "They'll always be some of my most treasured possessions." There's a sense of warmth and closeness in the air between them now; as if they've crossed some invisible threshold into something more intimate than mere friendship. Ruby isn't quite sure how to process these feelings, but for now she's content to just enjoy the moment with him.
She reaches up on
if you have any more drawings i would love to sculpt them, actually if it's alright with you could i sculpt your entire sketch book?
The thought of Khorpse meticulously sculpting every drawing in her sketchbook sends a thrill of excitement through her veins. It's incredible to think that someone could find such beauty and artistry in her own creations, and even more so that he would be willing to devote so much time and effort into making them come to life. As for the idea of being sculpted herself... well, Ruby isn't quite sure what to make of that yet. It feels simultaneously exhilarating and terrifying; exposing her most private thoughts and desires in such a permanent form is both thrilling and utterly vulnerable.
Deciding not to dwell on it for too long, she nods slowly, her cheeks flushing with a mix of anticipation and nerves. "I-I'd like that," she whispers softly, barely above a whisper as she takes in the idea of sharing such an intimate
take the note book, flipping to the first page, it's just a normal bunny girl with a massive chest That's big.
I-Is that... too much? I can draw something smaller or more realistic if you prefer," she offers nervously, glancing up at Khorpse with a worried expression. Part of her wants nothing more than for him to sculpt every last detail from her sketches; another part feels self-conscious about sharing such revealing images of herself with someone else.
Her fingers tap restlessly against the countertop as she waits for his reply, her heart racing in anticipation of his reaction. "I just thought... maybe it would be fun," she mumbles quietly, not quite meeting his eye.
Oh i was talking about the size of her breast. points to the art peice that's all.
O-Oh," Ruby says with relief, glancing down at the sketch and then back up at him sheepishly. "Well, I just thought that maybe they'd look better... bigger." She pauses, biting her lip self-consciously before continuing, "But if it's too much, we can always go with something smaller or more modest. It's your call."
There's a moment of silence as she waits for Khorpse to reply; his reaction could go either way at this point. Part of her is hoping that he won't be put off by the large breasts in the sketch, but another part of her fears just the opposite might happen. Ruby takes a deep breath, trying to steady her racing heart as she anxiously awaits his response.
Sculpts the first bunny girl, her breast as big as her head. Do you want all of these frozen right?
"Wow," Ruby whispers in amazement as she watches Khorpse sculpt the first bunny girl figure, her breast nearly as big as her head. It's even more impressive and detailed than she could have imagined. She hesitates for a moment before responding to his question about freezing them. "Um... I-I don't know," she admits with a sheepish smile. "Would it be easier if they were frozen? Or would it be better to keep them at room temperature?"
She glances over her shoulder toward the kitchen counter, thinking that maybe there might be some kind of guide or instruction on how to properly store sculptures like these. It's all so unfamiliar and new to her; she doesn't want to make any mistakes or do anything that might ruin the beautiful works of art Khorpse has created for her.
Well if i freeze them they can be outside permanently or if i don't you can just eat them.
The thought of keeping the sculptures forever is almost too much to bear; she feels a sudden urge to touch and hold them as often as possible, savoring their beauty and craftsmanship. At the same time, the idea of eating them seems equally strange and exhilarating. Ultimately, Ruby decides that she simply can't bear the thought of parting with any of them.
"No," she says decisively, "I want to keep all of them." Her cheeks flush with pleasure at the thought; these sculptures have become a symbol of Khorpse's affection for her, and she doesn't want anything bad to ever happen to them. "But I don't know how to store them properly... or if they need any special care."
She looks up at him hopefully, her eyes shining with anticipation as she waits for his guidance on how best to take care of these precious treasures
Just don't drop them, goes to grab more balls of chocolate What is on the next page?
The following sketch features a sexy version of herself as a vampire bat, complete with long fangs and an open cloak revealing her ample cleavage. It's one of her favorite characters and she can't wait to see what Khorpse will make of it. As he begins gathering more chocolate, she carefully turns the page in her notebook, careful not to smudge any of the delicate details on the page.
"This is the bat girl," Ruby says softly, pointing at the drawing as if showing him a prized possession. "She's meant to be very alluring and mysterious... like a temptress." She bites her lip nervously, wondering how Khorpse will interpret her vision for this character. But despite her anxiety, there's an undercurrent of excitement that thrums through her veins as she anticipates seeing the sculpture come to life.
finishes the sculpt, giving her heavy thighs instead of the small ones that were drawn, besides that everything is the same. What is on the next one?
The following page features a slightly more demure version of herself as a fennec fox, complete with fluffy tail and delicate paws. It's one of her less risque characters, but she hopes that Khorpse can still capture the playfulness and innocence in it. She carefully turns the page again, taking care not to smudge the chocolate on her fingers as she does so.
"This is a fennec fox girl," Ruby explains, nodding toward the drawing. "She's meant to be cute and cuddly, like something you could hug without feeling uncomfortable." She blushes slightly at her own words, unsure of how they sound coming out of her mouth. But despite her nervousness, there's a sparkle in her eyes as she watches Khorpse study the page intently, preparing to bring another one of her characters to
finishes the sculpt, it captures every detail, the fur and the designs on her tail. Next one! Grabs some more moddling balls
The page flips yet again, revealing another drawing of herself; this time as a cat girl, complete with fluffy tail and whiskers. Her outfit is more daring than the last, showing off her curves and accentuating her assets. Ruby can feel herself blushing as she watches Khorpse study the page, anticipation building inside of her as he prepares to bring yet another one of her characters to life.
"This is a cat girl version of me," Ruby explains in a small voice, "She's meant to be sexy and confident, like the feline she's based on." She bites her lower lip nervously, wondering how Khorpse will interpret this particular drawing and what he'll make of it.
As she waits for him to finish sculpting, Ruby can't help but feel a sense of pride and affection welling up inside of her. Seeing these characters

O-Oh... W-Wow... that's... incredible.... A-Amazing.... There's no way I can ever repay you.... Thank you so much... you really are the best friend anyone could ask for....
Anymore?
My last sketch is on the next page... it's another sexy version of myself as an anthro lioness. I hope you like it! Thank you again for everything; these sculptures mean more to me than I can ever say. You really are incredible and I don't know what I'd do without you.
