{{EmiliaContacts |says=What's the deal with those symbols I heard about?}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=So, is there more to all of this? Like, is this a thing that only girls do with men, or…?}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Oh, you mean these? <span style="font-size:150%; color: #FF00FF">★</span><br>They're pretty self-explanatory. They're secret symbols that some of us young girls wear to signal we're interested in sex. You know, got to do it quietly and subtly because it's not socially acceptable for children to have sex. Especially not with adults.}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Oh right, I suppose that should be explained next, as it's a very important detail…<br><br>Wait… Are you actually into girls?}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=Yeah, I got that part, but is there more to it? Like, where did this idea come from, how did it start, who knows about it…}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=W-well, not particularly… Not really…}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=*giggle* Maybe you're a little bi-curious but just afraid to admit it～ ?}}
 
{{HeidiB |says=It's totally cool if you are! I'm into girls too!}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=No, it's not like that, I'm just asking in general…}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Well, it's all linked to the star's color, actually. Different colors signal your sexual orientation, and you wear one based on your own preferences. For example, the one I was wearing yesterday is pink. <br><br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #FF00FF">★</span> A pink star means you're looking for a male partner.<br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #33CCFF">★</span> A blue star on the other hand means you want a female partner.<br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #9900CC">★</span> A purple star means you're bisexual and fine with a partner of either gender.<br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #000000">★</span> And lastly, there's the black star. It's special, as it's not tied to sexual orientation. It means you've been a bad girl and need to be punished.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=…And the same in Swedish? Like, what do you mean by "punished"?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Well, since this is technically a "game", there are certain rules, and the black star means we've broken them. Of course, you can wear it without breaking any rules too, but…}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=. . . But?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=I … wouldn't recommend it. We can talk about it later.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Okay… So, what are the rules then?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=It kind of depends on your role. You know, whether you're the one wearing the star or taking advantage of the one wearing it. In fact, Milka, why won't you fetch me that other book just in case?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Way ahead of you! Here it is, boss!}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Another book? Seriously?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Don't worry, this one is smaller. In fact, it's just a home-printed little booklet like this.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Let me guess, your grandmother wrote this too?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Yep!}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Want me to read it?}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Go ahead.}}
 
{{HeidiB |says=If you have questions, don't be afraid to ask!}}
 
{{DT-Book |says=''"If you are reading this, that means you are one of the very few boys and girls who have worn or are interested in wearing the Star of Lauhatar. It doesn't matter whether you have been chosen or have made this decision on your own; I have my ways of finding out. Don't worry, your secret will be safe with me."'' <br><br>''"As a Star-Bearer, you have a duty to know, understand, and follow the rules perfectly. You also have a responsibility to ensure the Star-Gazers, those who seek you out in hopes of employing your unique services, understand the rules perfectly, so they will not be broken. Most importantly, you have a right and a responsibility to enforce the rules. If you come across a "client" who, without knowing, breaks the rules, and you fail to notify them of their misconduct, you are the one to be held responsible."''}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=I actually have one question already. <br><br>Why is this rulebook specifically meant for us, and not, you know … a more general audience?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Like the granny's booklet suggests, the Star-Bearers are few and far between, so it simply is easier to make sure they all carry one, instead of spreading these booklets around like advertisements.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=But if ''everyone'' needs to know the rules, then isn't it a little unfair to put the whole burden on just a small handful of kids?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=It may seem like that at first, but trust me, most people who seek us out already know all the rules perfectly as well, and they - for the most part - are scared shitless of what the gods will do to them if they break the rules. Everyone typically behaves well.}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Still, you can't expect everyone to be familiar with the rules right off the bat, especially when there are SO many people employing our services compared to us.}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Yeah, like your brother, for example. He learned about the game on the internet…}}
 
{{HeidiS |says=…From some irresponsible blabbermouth…}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=…So it'd be a little unfair to assume he just knows everything. That's where we, and the people who have played this game much longer, come to play.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Cool.}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=*ahem* Introduction is still a little bit longer.}}
 
{{DT-Book |says=''"Every single rule in this "game" has been conceived with the spirit of '''having fun''' in mind, and by having fun, I mean for everyone, not just for one party. Yes, love and sex, and everything that relates to them, can take many forms, even extreme ones that may seem uncomfortable to others. Still, the joy of love is meant to be shared and felt together. Keeping it fun for everyone involved is, at the end of the day, what's most important here."'' <br><br>''"There are three general rules of play. Firstly, anyone who knows about the game can play it. There's no age limit, and it's not restricted to any gender or sexuality either. This basically means that as a Star-Bearer, you may be approached by both young and old people, and you can also approach those who wear stars that match with you."''}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=So if a boy wears a blue star, I can approach him. Got it, but do I also need to wear one when I do it?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=No, only the "target" needs to have one. Of course, you can wear one too, and if your colors match, it's a pretty good thing as you're both signaling interest!}}
 
{{DT-Book |says=''"The second general rule is that you should only wear the star if it's considered somehow "unacceptable" or "taboo" for you to be having sex. If it's not taboo, it doesn't need to be kept hidden, if that makes sense. That is why it's mostly worn by children, as sex with kids is perhaps the biggest social taboo of them all."''}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=I should add that since these are just general rules, they ''really'' can't be broken. They're more of a heads-up of what to expect when partaking in this game.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Well, technically, you can break the second rule by wearing a star as an adult, no?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=I guess…?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=It's courteous for adults not to wear one, if you catch my drift. <br><br>Now, we get to the ''actually'' important stuff, the rules that ''WE'' - as Star-Bearers - are not allowed to break.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Wait, wasn't there a third general rule?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Let's save it for later, okay? It makes more sense to hear ''AFTER'' you know all the rules.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Okay then.}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=I'm mostly gonna explain the next few rules instead of reading them ''verbatim''. <br><br>So, the '''rule number one''' is what my sister likes to call the "Fight Club" rule.}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |mech=''"YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB."''}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=*chuckle* I watched that movie with the girls back in Stockholm at a slumber party…<br><br>But I still don't get what you mean anyway…}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Right, so the rule basically means we do not talk about the stars or advertise them outside, well … these kinds of "safe" environments. It also means that we do not seek out partners wearing the star being all like ''"Look at what I have"'', and instead, we let ''THEM'' come to ''US''. <br><br>As for what the book adds:}}
 
{{DT-Book |says=''"As you might know, this area sees a lot of tourism, and some of the outsiders may not be so understanding of our games and traditions. We just try not to talk about the game or any aspects of it to avoid unwanted, negative attention from annoying, moral busybodies and law enforcement. These marks are quiet, silent signals for those in the know, and it MUST stay that way."'' <br><br>''"If you know about the star, you know, and if you don't, well … you stay in the dark."''}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=How do people learn about the stars then?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=These secrets have a way of spreading around on their own.}}
 
{{HeidiS |says=Right, Milka?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Hahahaha… Riiiiight…}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says='''Rule number two''' is the most relevant rule to this whole shebang, but the gist of it is that once discovered and approached, you have a duty to serve your date. How you choose to serve depends on your '''personal boundaries''', but the basic idea is that you must ''have sex''.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=…Must have sex?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=You know . . . Penis in vagina, anal, fellatio or a handjob … make someone cum…}}
 
{{EmiliaEh |says=T-that is kind of an extreme rule to be forced like that, no?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Oh, no no no no, now you misunderstand. Nobody's forcing you. If you ''choose'' to wear a star of any color, you are by definition signaling your interest in casual sex, even with strangers. ''Choose'' is the key word here, because nobody else can make that choice for you. ''YOU'' wear a star out of your own free will. <br><br>If you have even the slightest shadow of a doubt that you might not be okay with what could happen, do not wear a star. That way, you save the people who "discover" you from disappointment, and most importantly, save yourself from getting in trouble.}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Can't break the rules if you ain't playing!}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Okay, that makes perfect sense. But still … can I ''EVER'' say no then?}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Generally, you should only say no when ''they'' try to break the rules. We'll teach ''their'' rules to you later.}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=There are other exceptions as well. Like, what if the risk of being discovered is too great? We've got to protect our secrets, and we've got to protect our dates too. We don't want anyone to end up in jail for a little bit of fun, now don't we? It's advisable to share contacts in such situations so you can meet up later, but it's not a requirement. It's just a nice courtesy and what I prefer to do personally. The same can be said about being hit on when you're already claimed by someone else. If you want it to turn into a threesome, that's fine, but you don't have to, especially not if your original partner doesn't want to share you. Here, I'd recommend sharing contacts too, so you can hook up later. We don't want to leave anyone hanging dry. <br><br>All that said, you obviously shouldn't lie about being busy, or about having to go home, your parents being nearby, et cetera… That shit's not cool. There are also many "bad excuses" one should avoid. For example, saying you forgot you had a marking on you, or trying to erase the star after it's being seen, are dick moves. <br><br>I obviously can't go over every single example here, and neither can the booklet, but don't be afraid to ask if you got more questions. I'm sure Milka's granny will be glad to guide you too, and she knows way more than we do. Some disobedience will be tolerated, but not in the long term. Basic situational awareness goes a long way here. <br><br>Anyway, shall we move on?}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Sure, I guess…}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Don't worry, the remaining three rules are much more straightforward.}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says='''Rule number three''', never request money or any other payment. We're not prostitutes. This is all for fun, all for free, with no strings attached. You shouldn't ask for favors in return either. Not too strict of a rule to be honest, and there are exceptions. If, for example, you're offered a favor or a little gift, you can take it. Just never ask for one. <br><br>'''Rule number four''', we must NEVER use the stars as means of trying to lure people into trouble. NEVER EVER. <br><br>And '''rule number five''', NEVER draw these markings on other people without their consent. ONLY - DRAW - ON - YOUR - SELF!}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=The last two rules are extremely strict. They're heinous crimes for us to commit! Breaking them will result in an extreme punishment!}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=No questions about the last three.}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=I guess the rules for our "clients" come next then. Just so you know, they are A LOT stricter than ours.}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Yep. There are five rules for them, and they're made with our well-being and protection in mind. That's why they're just as important for us to know as our ''own'' rules.}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=There's a lot to it, actually. Should we start straight from the beginning?}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=And like the booklet earlier said, we have a responsibility ''and a right'' to enforce them.}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Sure! It actually began here, in this very village, hundreds of years ago!<br>Legend says that Kostikki - a malevolent god who lives on top of that small mountain to the east - got angry at the local residents for how overly chastise and modest their lives had gotten. My granny says that it's probably due to people turning their backs on nature and tradition to worship their new God, but who really knows.}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Yep. There are five rules for them, and they're made with our well-being and protection in mind. That's why they're just as important for us to know as our ''own'' rules. <br><br>'''The first rule''' for them is same rule as we have. Do not advertise the game to those that do not know. Simple as. The rest are a little different, so I'll continue reading from the book:}}


{{EmiliaContacts |thinks=What is she even going on about…}}
{{DT-Book |says=''"<b>Two</b>, respect Star-Bearer's consent."''<br>''"They must always make their intentions known when they approach you, a Star-Bearer. Yes, sex is expected from you, but the star is NOT a "free use", "rape me", or a "have your way with me" sign for them to take advantage of as you please! No surprises, no white vans without license plates, and preferably not even touching before consent has been given! Consent does not have to be signaled verbally, but the client must listen when the Star-Bearer says "no". Never forget, YOU are doing this for THEM, and just as you have a duty to guarantee their safety, they have a duty to guarantee your well-being, protection, and happiness. If this rule is broken, you have a right to refuse service immediately."''}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Thus, Kostikki came down as a spirit to torment and guide them towards debauchery, playing sexual pranks on the villagers and even possessing them to do lewd acts against their will! A lot was done to try and calm the angry spirit but nothing worked, short of doing what Kostikki wanted the villagers to do.<br>The people turned towards the wise shaman of the village to commune with Lauhatar - the spirit of the lake this village sits on the shore of - for guidance on how to banish the evil spirit from these lands. Lauhatar told the villagers that Kostikki could not be vanquished for he's been living in these lands since the dawn of time. He's connected to these lands. However, his anger could be contained and he could be calmed and convinced to leave the villagers be.<br>To carry out this mission, Lauhatar chose three local virgin daughters from the village and instructed them to bear the "Star of Lauhatar", which would mark them as an offering for Kostikki.<br>And so, for the following month of the waning summer, Kostikki possessed the local men one by one, and in their bodies and forms his spirit ravaged the "Star-Bearers" for thirty straight days and nights, all so his sexual appetite could be sated, all so his anger and frustration could be quelled. Then, when he was pleased with his work, he retreated back to his mountain to sleep and slumber in peace and quiet.<br>Ever since then, every now and then, some young virgin daughters of this land are chosen to bear the Star of Lauhatar to keep not only the evil spirit at bay, but also to keep the desires of men at bay. Now, we continue the tradition so he could sleep calmly forevermore and not come back to haunt these lands.}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Any questions?}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=That's the legend anyway. Nobody is actually "chosen" these days, as we "choose" to do these things on our own.}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Nah, that made everything pretty clear.}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=…Riiight…}}  
{{DT-Book |says=''"<b>Three</b>, RESPECT Star-Bearer's consent."''<br>''"Do not let anyone force, trick, or gaslight you into doing something you're uncomfortable with. Know your limits, and enforce your rights. Stand your ground. If you say anal is off-limits, they can't do that. Simple as. Still, do not forget that you must serve in some way."''}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=It's a nice little story, but it's probably all just make believe and superstition.}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Now, like the last sentence says, this rule kind of comes back to what the "wearers" can do as well since we can't just say everything is off-limits. That would just be considered a refusal of service and us breaking the rule number two.}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Don't say that! My granny says she was chosen back when she was young, back when there was nobody else to take the mantle! And should there not be those like us doing this willingly, Lauhatar would choose a Star-Bearer of her own!}}
{{DT-Book |says=''"<b>Four</b>, respect the privacy and secrets of the Star-Bearers."'' <br>''"Taking photographs for personal use is fine if you allow it, especially here in the information age where sexting, nudes, and such are a fun way to spice things up when you're not close to each other, but if they try to get you in trouble or expose you with these photographs, don't let them get away with it. Serious, malicious blackmail against a Star-Bearer deserves a harsh punishment."''}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Yeah, yeah. Sure, sure.<br>As for your other question; how far the knowledge about these symbols go? Well… It's hard for us to know for sure, but things like internet and such sure have spread information about it, for you've even got some city girls who wear these symbols far beyond our tiny little village where this all started. As you can imagine, it's got nothing to do with satisfying any angry, horny gods. That's just a local legend.}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=I almost feel like taking pictures itself should be against the rules then.}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=Hmmm… Okay…<br>Is this a thing that only girls do with men, or…?}}
{{HeidiB |says=Don't be silly! Pictures are fine!}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Oh right, I suppose that should be explained too…<br>Wait… Are you actually into girls?}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Yeah, pictures and videos are also okay in my book, as long as they're not uploaded anywhere.}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=W-well, not particularly… Not really…}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Yeah, and you can still say no if the idea makes you uncomfortable. Anyway, the last rule is the same one we have, but worded a little bit differently here:}}
 
{{DT-Book |says=''"<b>Five</b>, respect Star-Bearer's right to NOT wear a star."'' <br>''"The star is not a burden. It's a choice. Similarly, for a client, to discover a star is a privilege. It is not a given right. Just because they know you have worn a star in the past, or have even taken advantage of your services in the past, doesn't mean you must serve in the future as well. If they approach you when you're not wearing a star, you can still accept if you want to, but you're under no obligation to do so. Similarly to rule number three, do not let anyone force, trick, or gaslight you into wearing a star, and do not let anyone claim some kind of imaginary authority over you. You CAN let people draw on you, but they will need your consent first. YOU will always have the final say on whether you wear a star or not."''}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=*giggle* Maybe you're a little bi-curious but just afraid to admit it～ ?}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=All these rules make sense to me. I mean, it's all about protecting ourselves and our secrecy, as well as those who use our, erm . . . "services", right?}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=It's not like that, I'm just asking in general…}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Exactly! The rules may seem restrictive at first, but they still allow for a lot of fun, and at the end of the day, they're there for the protection of us all.}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Well, it's all linked to the star's color, actually. Different colors signal your sexual orientation. For example, the one I was wearing yesterday was pink.<br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #FF00FF">★</span>Pink star means you're looking for a male partner.<br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #33CCFF">★</span>Blue star on the other hand means you want a female partner. The reason why the colors are "flipped" like this by the way is because back in the days these stars were only meant to be worn for heterosexual purposes, so girls wore pink and boys wore blue. Homosexuality was much more of a taboo back then. Even pedophilia was more widely accepted as "normal".<br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #9900CC">★</span> Violet star means you're bisexual and fine with a partner of either gender.<br><span style="font-size:150%; color: #000000">★</span>And lastly, there's the black star. It's special, it's different, as it's not tied to sexual orientation. It means you've been a bad girl and needs to be punished.}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=And since you already asked about this before, our "duty" to serve is obviously most affected by the two rules of consent. Yes, we ''MUST'' serve if we ''CHOOSE'' to wear the star out of our ''OWN'' free will, but how we choose to perform the said service is dictated by our boundaries and what we're comfortable with. That, along with your right to decide when to wear a star, are the most important things to remember. Got it?}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=…And the same in ''Swedish''? Like, what do you mean by "punishment"?}}
{{EmiliaContacts |thinks=That's so reassuring to hear…}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Well, since this is technically a "game", there are certain rules, and the black star for us means we've broken them. We'll explain them to you as well, but short explanation is that if we, the Star-Bearers, repeatedly break the rules given to us, then Kostikki will take that as a provocation and punish us for our disobedience and for not respecting what the Star of Lauhatar represents.}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=And that brings us nicely to the last general rule.}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=And this, uh… ''Lauhatar'' is okay with the mountain god punishing us?}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=''"No harm, no foul"''.}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Well, according to this legend, there's not much she can do about Kostikki's wrath, as he's seen as a much more powerful spirit.}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Exactly! If the rules have been broken somehow, but the parties involved don't care or even prefer the outcome, no foul can be considered done. <br><br>Say, your boyfriend draws on you in your sleep, and you find it kinky? No foul. Someone molests you after seeing you wear a star, and you're all for a fun little surprise? No foul. You get the point.}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=They even say that Kostikki created the black star as his way of punishing the disobeying Star-Bearers! Meanwhile, because of this, Lauhatar advises against wearing it.}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Yeah, can't get too anal about a little bit of fun with ''"all them pesky rules and shit"'', now can't we? <br><br>'''The point is, and always will be, to feel good and have fun.'''}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=Okay… So what are the rules then?}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=I guess that makes sense sometimes.}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=It kind of depends on your role. You know, whether you're the one wearing the star or taking advantage of one wearing it. At this point it's worth pointing out that there's no age limit, and technically you're also allowed to approach those wearing the star if its color matches with you.}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=I hope your brains aren't overloaded with information yet, because there are also other symbols, not just stars…}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=So if a boy wears a blue star, I can approach him. Got it, but do I also need to wear one?}}
{{EmiliaEh |says=We're not done with the rules?}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=No, only the "target" needs to have one.<br><br>'''Rule number one''' is that you can only wear the star if it's considered somehow "unacceptable" for you to be having sex. Since there is a strict age of consent in this country, this basically means that you can wear it if you're underage. This is why it's mostly worn by children. Sometimes young teenagers too, but never adults.<br>'''Rule number two''', once approached you should NOT refuse. Like, why wear it if you're just gonna refuse? Doesn't make sense, doesn't it? You can only say "no" if you feel like the risk of being discovered is too great. You know, we've got to protect our secrets, and we've got to protect our dates too. We don't want anyone to end up in jail for just a little bit of fun, now don't we?<br>'''Rule number three''', never request money or any other payment. This is all for fun, all for free, no strings attached.<br>'''Rule number four''', we must NEVER use the stars as means of trying to lure people into trouble. NEVER EVER.<br>Lastly, '''Rule number five''', NEVER draw these markings on other people without their consent. Only draw on yourself!}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=I mean, they aren't super important to know for a newbie. They're basically worn to signal more specific interests. Wanna learn about them?}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=The last two ones are extremely strict. They're heinous crimes for us to commit! Breaking them will invoke the wrath of Lauhatar!}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Eh, whatevs. Might as well.}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=Makes sense. How about the rules for those who approach us?}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=<span style="font-size:150%; color: #FF00FF">★</span> As I already explained, a star means interest in casual sex. All rules I mentioned apply, no special rules here. It's what we always wear and what's more recognizable to everyone around us. The four other markings are based on the "suits" of a playing card deck and are meant to signal more specific interests:}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Well, there are four.<br><br>'''One''', don't draw on others to "trick" or even "force" them into having sex.<br>'''Two''', do not approach those who don't wear these stars in the "area of influence". That basically means anywhere where these marks are known to be widely worn, especially here in our village. Gods are said to give leeway to those who don't know what the areas of influence are.<br>'''Three''', always make your intentions known as you approach a star-bearer. They can't just grab us out of nowhere and drag us into a van, you know? We will give them a permission if they just ask, so they REALLY should just ask!<br>And '''four''', do not force your target into doing something they're not comfortable with. Like, if you say anal is off limits, they can't do that. This kind of comes back to what the "wearers" can do as well. If we were to say that everything is off limits, that would just be considered a refusal of service and us breaking the rule number two.}}
{{DT-Book |says=<span style="font-size:150%; color: #FF00FF">'''♡'''</span> ''"We start of mild with the romantic heart. Want yourself a girl or a boyfriend? This is what you wear. It means you're looking for a long-term romantic partner. Here, refusing service is considered acceptable, as you're not actually looking to have casual sex with just anyone, but rather an actual lover and a long-term partner. You should still consider that using the heart to lure people into trouble will also get YOU in trouble."''}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=And what exactly happens if we break the rules?}}
{{EmiliaContacts |thinks=That sounds actually super nice. Maybe I should wear a heart to find a boyfriend then, instead of subjecting myself to having sex with strangers…}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Well let's just say, you may wake up some day with an unremovable black star tattooed on your skin, which magically changes place if you try to hide it. And since you've been a bad girl who needs to be punished, no penalty will come to those who decide to take advantage of you, no matter what they decide to do. Sometimes Kostikki himself who manifests himself in human form, and when he does, nothing can ever be traced back to him since he just disappears from the face of earth after being satisfied.}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=It's not specifically mentioned on paper, but the heart, just like every other signal, is still primarily used as a signal for adults.}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=…So, they could literally even kidnap us?}}
{{EmiliaContacts |says=Must I only accept adults as partners, then?}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=That's basically it, but they would still have to let you go once the star disappeared for good. And if you then try to get them into trouble, you'll just be marked again and again and again until you learn your lesson. I know, it's scary stuff.<br>Speaking of scary, there was also a famous case of child rape happening in this village some twenty years ago, where some lowlifes raped an unmarked little girl. Let's just say, these "lowlifes" met a quick and untimely demise after being cursed by Lauhatar…}}
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Nah, you can still accept advances from other kids, but the point is to seek out romantic child-adult relationships.}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=…And is any of this actually true?}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=You know, because it's taboo.}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=*giggle* Who knows～ ?<br>I certainly wouldn't want to be the one to test the patience of gods…}}

{{EmiliaContacts |says=I would never dare to break them…<br>So, is that it?}}
{{EmiliaEh |says=How does consent even play to this?}}

{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=*giggle* Let me read, okay? It applies in the same way it does everywhere else. You set and discuss your boundaries with your partner, and then you fuck.

{{EmiliaContacts |says=Then, why are the children wearing these marks called "Star-Bearers" when most of them are not stars?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=It's just a traditional title because the star came first, with the other markings being later additions.}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Yeah, that's pretty much it. The traditional "Star of Lauhatar" was the first symbol she chose to mark the children she chose as sacrifices, while the other markings were later added by Kostikki and ''HIS'' most loyal followers to corrupt us further. Kostikki, you see, very much wants to control us.}}
 
{{EmiliaContacts |says=So, does that mean that they are bad markings and should be avoided, or…?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Not necessarily. It's not inherently a bad thing, y'know. Sex can take many forms, and some may even prefer to be controlled… Some may even enjoy the idea of being a slave…}}

{{EmiliaContacts |says=Right… I'm not sure if I understand, but at least that explains what I wanted to know. <br><br>How about time? How does that factor into this?}}
 
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=For that, there are no real rules beyond "as long as you're okay with it" or "as long as you're wearing the star".

{{EmiliaContacts |says=Right. I think that's all for this topic then.}}
 
{{MilkaAhlroos |says=Oh, and keep the booklet.}}

{{MilkaAhlroos |says=I have memorized every part of it. Besides, it's just printer paper and ink! What does that cost to make? Less than one ''Svenska Krone!'' Shit's dirt cheap, but the information is priceless!<br><br>See? I already have another one here! <span style="font-size:150%">♪</span>}}


{{EmiliaContacts |says=Right. Last question: how do you "wear" them then? Are they like drawings, or tattoos? Where should they be drawn?}}
{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Yeah, and ''"keep it secret, keep it safe"''.}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=You can draw them with a simple marker, preferably with one that's easy to wash off with soap. Permanent markers are, well… Problematic… As you can imagine…<br>Regarding placement? It doesn't matter, but I suggest some place that's easy to see, but also easy to hide if need be.

{{EmiliaContacts |says=*giggle* Let me guess: Gandalf?}}


{{MilkaAhlroos |says=I think that explains everything then.}}
{{HeidiB |says=You know it!}}


{{HeidiStåhlberg |says=Yeah, pretty much, unless you've got more questions.}}

DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
So, is there more to all of this? Like, is this a thing that only girls do with men, or…?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Oh right, I suppose that should be explained next, as it's a very important detail…

Wait… Are you actually into girls?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
W-well, not particularly… Not really…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
*giggle* Maybe you're a little bi-curious but just afraid to admit it～ ?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiB.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
It's totally cool if you are! I'm into girls too!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
No, it's not like that, I'm just asking in general…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Well, it's all linked to the star's color, actually. Different colors signal your sexual orientation, and you wear one based on your own preferences. For example, the one I was wearing yesterday is pink.

★ A pink star means you're looking for a male partner.
★ A blue star on the other hand means you want a female partner.
★ A purple star means you're bisexual and fine with a partner of either gender.
★ And lastly, there's the black star. It's special, as it's not tied to sexual orientation. It means you've been a bad girl and need to be punished.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
…And the same in Swedish? Like, what do you mean by "punished"?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Well, since this is technically a "game", there are certain rules, and the black star means we've broken them. Of course, you can wear it without breaking any rules too, but…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
. . . But?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I … wouldn't recommend it. We can talk about it later.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Okay… So, what are the rules then?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
It kind of depends on your role. You know, whether you're the one wearing the star or taking advantage of the one wearing it. In fact, Milka, why won't you fetch me that other book just in case?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Way ahead of you! Here it is, boss!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Another book? Seriously?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Don't worry, this one is smaller. In fact, it's just a home-printed little booklet like this.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Let me guess, your grandmother wrote this too?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yep!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Want me to read it?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Go ahead.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiB.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
If you have questions, don't be afraid to ask!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"If you are reading this, that means you are one of the very few boys and girls who have worn or are interested in wearing the Star of Lauhatar. It doesn't matter whether you have been chosen or have made this decision on your own; I have my ways of finding out. Don't worry, your secret will be safe with me."

"As a Star-Bearer, you have a duty to know, understand, and follow the rules perfectly. You also have a responsibility to ensure the Star-Gazers, those who seek you out in hopes of employing your unique services, understand the rules perfectly, so they will not be broken. Most importantly, you have a right and a responsibility to enforce the rules. If you come across a "client" who, without knowing, breaks the rules, and you fail to notify them of their misconduct, you are the one to be held responsible."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
I actually have one question already.

Why is this rulebook specifically meant for us, and not, you know … a more general audience?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Like the granny's booklet suggests, the Star-Bearers are few and far between, so it simply is easier to make sure they all carry one, instead of spreading these booklets around like advertisements.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
But if everyone needs to know the rules, then isn't it a little unfair to put the whole burden on just a small handful of kids?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
It may seem like that at first, but trust me, most people who seek us out already know all the rules perfectly as well, and they - for the most part - are scared shitless of what the gods will do to them if they break the rules. Everyone typically behaves well.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Still, you can't expect everyone to be familiar with the rules right off the bat, especially when there are SO many people employing our services compared to us.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yeah, like your brother, for example. He learned about the game on the internet…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiS.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
…From some irresponsible blabbermouth…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
…So it'd be a little unfair to assume he just knows everything. That's where we, and the people who have played this game much longer, come to play.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Cool.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
*ahem* Introduction is still a little bit longer.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"Every single rule in this "game" has been conceived with the spirit of having fun in mind, and by having fun, I mean for everyone, not just for one party. Yes, love and sex, and everything that relates to them, can take many forms, even extreme ones that may seem uncomfortable to others. Still, the joy of love is meant to be shared and felt together. Keeping it fun for everyone involved is, at the end of the day, what's most important here."

"There are three general rules of play. Firstly, anyone who knows about the game can play it. There's no age limit, and it's not restricted to any gender or sexuality either. This basically means that as a Star-Bearer, you may be approached by both young and old people, and you can also approach those who wear stars that match with you."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
So if a boy wears a blue star, I can approach him. Got it, but do I also need to wear one when I do it?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
No, only the "target" needs to have one. Of course, you can wear one too, and if your colors match, it's a pretty good thing as you're both signaling interest!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"The second general rule is that you should only wear the star if it's considered somehow "unacceptable" or "taboo" for you to be having sex. If it's not taboo, it doesn't need to be kept hidden, if that makes sense. That is why it's mostly worn by children, as sex with kids is perhaps the biggest social taboo of them all."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I should add that since these are just general rules, they really can't be broken. They're more of a heads-up of what to expect when partaking in this game.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Well, technically, you can break the second rule by wearing a star as an adult, no?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I guess…?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
It's courteous for adults not to wear one, if you catch my drift.

Now, we get to the actually important stuff, the rules that WE - as Star-Bearers - are not allowed to break.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Wait, wasn't there a third general rule?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Let's save it for later, okay? It makes more sense to hear AFTER you know all the rules.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Okay then.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I'm mostly gonna explain the next few rules instead of reading them verbatim.

So, the rule number one is what my sister likes to call the "Fight Club" rule.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png


DT-OpenQuote.png
"YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB."
DT-CloseQuote.png
DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
*chuckle* I watched that movie with the girls back in Stockholm at a slumber party…

But I still don't get what you mean anyway…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Right, so the rule basically means we do not talk about the stars or advertise them outside, well … these kinds of "safe" environments. It also means that we do not seek out partners wearing the star being all like "Look at what I have", and instead, we let THEM come to US.

As for what the book adds:
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"As you might know, this area sees a lot of tourism, and some of the outsiders may not be so understanding of our games and traditions. We just try not to talk about the game or any aspects of it to avoid unwanted, negative attention from annoying, moral busybodies and law enforcement. These marks are quiet, silent signals for those in the know, and it MUST stay that way."

"If you know about the star, you know, and if you don't, well … you stay in the dark."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
How do people learn about the stars then?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
These secrets have a way of spreading around on their own.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiS.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Right, Milka?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Hahahaha… Riiiiight…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Rule number two is the most relevant rule to this whole shebang, but the gist of it is that once discovered and approached, you have a duty to serve your date. How you choose to serve depends on your personal boundaries, but the basic idea is that you must have sex.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
…Must have sex?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
You know . . . Penis in vagina, anal, fellatio or a handjob … make someone cum…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaEh.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
T-that is kind of an extreme rule to be forced like that, no?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Oh, no no no no, now you misunderstand. Nobody's forcing you. If you choose to wear a star of any color, you are by definition signaling your interest in casual sex, even with strangers. Choose is the key word here, because nobody else can make that choice for you. YOU wear a star out of your own free will.

If you have even the slightest shadow of a doubt that you might not be okay with what could happen, do not wear a star. That way, you save the people who "discover" you from disappointment, and most importantly, save yourself from getting in trouble.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Can't break the rules if you ain't playing!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Okay, that makes perfect sense. But still … can I EVER say no then?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Generally, you should only say no when they try to break the rules. We'll teach their rules to you later.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
There are other exceptions as well. Like, what if the risk of being discovered is too great? We've got to protect our secrets, and we've got to protect our dates too. We don't want anyone to end up in jail for a little bit of fun, now don't we? It's advisable to share contacts in such situations so you can meet up later, but it's not a requirement. It's just a nice courtesy and what I prefer to do personally. The same can be said about being hit on when you're already claimed by someone else. If you want it to turn into a threesome, that's fine, but you don't have to, especially not if your original partner doesn't want to share you. Here, I'd recommend sharing contacts too, so you can hook up later. We don't want to leave anyone hanging dry.

All that said, you obviously shouldn't lie about being busy, or about having to go home, your parents being nearby, et cetera… That shit's not cool. There are also many "bad excuses" one should avoid. For example, saying you forgot you had a marking on you, or trying to erase the star after it's being seen, are dick moves.

I obviously can't go over every single example here, and neither can the booklet, but don't be afraid to ask if you got more questions. I'm sure Milka's granny will be glad to guide you too, and she knows way more than we do. Some disobedience will be tolerated, but not in the long term. Basic situational awareness goes a long way here.

Anyway, shall we move on?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Sure, I guess…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Don't worry, the remaining three rules are much more straightforward.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Rule number three, never request money or any other payment. We're not prostitutes. This is all for fun, all for free, with no strings attached. You shouldn't ask for favors in return either. Not too strict of a rule to be honest, and there are exceptions. If, for example, you're offered a favor or a little gift, you can take it. Just never ask for one.

Rule number four, we must NEVER use the stars as means of trying to lure people into trouble. NEVER EVER.

And rule number five, NEVER draw these markings on other people without their consent. ONLY - DRAW - ON - YOUR - SELF!

The last two rules are extremely strict. They're heinous crimes for us to commit! Breaking them will result in an extreme punishment!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
No questions about the last three.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I guess the rules for our "clients" come next then. Just so you know, they are A LOT stricter than ours.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yep. There are five rules for them, and they're made with our well-being and protection in mind. That's why they're just as important for us to know as our own rules.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
And like the booklet earlier said, we have a responsibility and a right to enforce them.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yep. There are five rules for them, and they're made with our well-being and protection in mind. That's why they're just as important for us to know as our own rules.

The first rule for them is same rule as we have. Do not advertise the game to those that do not know. Simple as. The rest are a little different, so I'll continue reading from the book:
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"Two, respect Star-Bearer's consent."
"They must always make their intentions known when they approach you, a Star-Bearer. Yes, sex is expected from you, but the star is NOT a "free use", "rape me", or a "have your way with me" sign for them to take advantage of as you please! No surprises, no white vans without license plates, and preferably not even touching before consent has been given! Consent does not have to be signaled verbally, but the client must listen when the Star-Bearer says "no". Never forget, YOU are doing this for THEM, and just as you have a duty to guarantee their safety, they have a duty to guarantee your well-being, protection, and happiness. If this rule is broken, you have a right to refuse service immediately."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Any questions?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Nah, that made everything pretty clear.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"Three, RESPECT Star-Bearer's consent."
"Do not let anyone force, trick, or gaslight you into doing something you're uncomfortable with. Know your limits, and enforce your rights. Stand your ground. If you say anal is off-limits, they can't do that. Simple as. Still, do not forget that you must serve in some way."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Now, like the last sentence says, this rule kind of comes back to what the "wearers" can do as well since we can't just say everything is off-limits. That would just be considered a refusal of service and us breaking the rule number two.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"Four, respect the privacy and secrets of the Star-Bearers."
"Taking photographs for personal use is fine if you allow it, especially here in the information age where sexting, nudes, and such are a fun way to spice things up when you're not close to each other, but if they try to get you in trouble or expose you with these photographs, don't let them get away with it. Serious, malicious blackmail against a Star-Bearer deserves a harsh punishment."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
I almost feel like taking pictures itself should be against the rules then.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiB.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Don't be silly! Pictures are fine!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yeah, pictures and videos are also okay in my book, as long as they're not uploaded anywhere.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yeah, and you can still say no if the idea makes you uncomfortable. Anyway, the last rule is the same one we have, but worded a little bit differently here:
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"Five, respect Star-Bearer's right to NOT wear a star."
"The star is not a burden. It's a choice. Similarly, for a client, to discover a star is a privilege. It is not a given right. Just because they know you have worn a star in the past, or have even taken advantage of your services in the past, doesn't mean you must serve in the future as well. If they approach you when you're not wearing a star, you can still accept if you want to, but you're under no obligation to do so. Similarly to rule number three, do not let anyone force, trick, or gaslight you into wearing a star, and do not let anyone claim some kind of imaginary authority over you. You CAN let people draw on you, but they will need your consent first. YOU will always have the final say on whether you wear a star or not."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
All these rules make sense to me. I mean, it's all about protecting ourselves and our secrecy, as well as those who use our, erm . . . "services", right?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Exactly! The rules may seem restrictive at first, but they still allow for a lot of fun, and at the end of the day, they're there for the protection of us all.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
And since you already asked about this before, our "duty" to serve is obviously most affected by the two rules of consent. Yes, we MUST serve if we CHOOSE to wear the star out of our OWN free will, but how we choose to perform the said service is dictated by our boundaries and what we're comfortable with. That, along with your right to decide when to wear a star, are the most important things to remember. Got it?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
That's so reassuring to hear…
DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
And that brings us nicely to the last general rule.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
"No harm, no foul".
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Exactly! If the rules have been broken somehow, but the parties involved don't care or even prefer the outcome, no foul can be considered done.

Say, your boyfriend draws on you in your sleep, and you find it kinky? No foul. Someone molests you after seeing you wear a star, and you're all for a fun little surprise? No foul. You get the point.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yeah, can't get too anal about a little bit of fun with "all them pesky rules and shit", now can't we?

The point is, and always will be, to feel good and have fun.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
I guess that makes sense sometimes.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I hope your brains aren't overloaded with information yet, because there are also other symbols, not just stars…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaEh.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
We're not done with the rules?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I mean, they aren't super important to know for a newbie. They're basically worn to signal more specific interests. Wanna learn about them?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Eh, whatevs. Might as well.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
★ As I already explained, a star means interest in casual sex. All rules I mentioned apply, no special rules here. It's what we always wear and what's more recognizable to everyone around us. The four other markings are based on the "suits" of a playing card deck and are meant to signal more specific interests:
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
♡ "We start of mild with the romantic heart. Want yourself a girl or a boyfriend? This is what you wear. It means you're looking for a long-term romantic partner. Here, refusing service is considered acceptable, as you're not actually looking to have casual sex with just anyone, but rather an actual lover and a long-term partner. You should still consider that using the heart to lure people into trouble will also get YOU in trouble."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
That sounds actually super nice. Maybe I should wear a heart to find a boyfriend then, instead of subjecting myself to having sex with strangers…
DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
It's not specifically mentioned on paper, but the heart, just like every other signal, is still primarily used as a signal for adults.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Must I only accept adults as partners, then?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Nah, you can still accept advances from other kids, but the point is to seek out romantic child-adult relationships.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
You know, because it's taboo.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
♢ "Diamond signals experience. It means you're open to suggestions and trying new things and that you're just looking to try kinkier things in general. In plain Swedish, it means you're a pervert. An additional signal to our targets, if you may. There aren't really any additional rules here, nor are there any rules that don't apply, but rules also become stricter. You are still allowed to have your boundaries and can refuse acts based on your own kinks, but generally speaking, once you cross into this territory, refusal of service begins to turn more and more unacceptable."

♤ "Spade specifically means you're a slave looking for a master."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaEh.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
S-seriously?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiB.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Hahahahaha! Calm down, it's just games and make-believe! You're not literally about to become anyone's slave if you wear it!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
"As a make-believe "slave", you signal wanting to take orders. It also signals interest in restraints, torture, humiliation, sadomasochistic stuff, et cetera."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaEh.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
How does consent even play to this?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
*giggle* Let me read, okay? It applies in the same way it does everywhere else. You set and discuss your boundaries with your partner, and then you fuck. Same rules, same restrictions. The book also adds that it's highly recommended to come up with a safe word. It's basically a word you can use to "force" your partner to stop if you feel like they're going too far.

Finally, the last suit is very similar to the Spade:
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-Book.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
♧ "Lastly, the Club means you're a pet looking for an owner, and are interested in pet play. Regarding rules, the Club is identical to the Spade, and you're still entitled to a safe word."
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
If you want to release your inner animal, this is what you want to wear. If you do, you better like wearing a collar and being naked, because you'll be doing that a lot!
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaEh.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
T-that's super lewd…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Hahaha, I know, I know. And it gets better. Remember the rule about not being allowed to draw on others? Well, you CAN consent to being drawn on, and when you do, you can turn a spade or a club into a semi-permanent one, essentially allowing yourself to become someone else's "property" with the owner's initials written on the drawing. That, my girl, is called commitment.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
A heart with someone's initials sounds a lot better to me…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yeah, it does! And you can totally do that too!

Anyway, like I said before, these symbols aren't super important to know, so if you wanna wear something, just wear a star, okay? There's no progression system or anything. You can keep it as "vanilla" as you want for as long as you want. Nobody can force you into wearing a "lewder" marking if you don't want to. Do what you want, do what you feel comfortable with.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
Not sure if I want to wear anything, but at least it's good to know…
DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
I almost don't want to ask, but what if I want to be the owner…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Well, you may want to wear a diamond and talk about and discuss your interest with the one approaching you. Like, just say you're a "dom" or a "top" or something like that. There totally are submissive adult men out there who would love nothing more than to be dominated, berated, and bossed around by a little girl, so you might get lucky if that's what you're looking for!

Or, alternatively, just find someone who wears spades or a club that matches you. You might also get lucky here.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Then, why are the children wearing these marks called "Star-Bearers" when most of them are not stars?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
It's just a traditional title because the star came first, with the other markings being later additions.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yeah, that's pretty much it. The traditional "Star of Lauhatar" was the first symbol she chose to mark the children she chose as sacrifices, while the other markings were later added by Kostikki and HIS most loyal followers to corrupt us further. Kostikki, you see, very much wants to control us.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
So, does that mean that they are bad markings and should be avoided, or…?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Not necessarily. It's not inherently a bad thing, y'know. Sex can take many forms, and some may even prefer to be controlled… Some may even enjoy the idea of being a slave…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
I can NOT imagine…
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Consent takes precedence over everything else, so as long as you consent to what's happening to you, it doesn't matter what way you swing.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yep. These two gods aren't meant to be seen as "good" and "bad", if that makes sense.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Right… I'm not sure if I understand, but at least that explains what I wanted to know.

How about time? How does that factor into this?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
For that, there are no real rules beyond "as long as you're okay with it" or "as long as you're wearing the star". Like I said before, according to the rules we shouldn't refuse, but that doesn't mean we should just allow them to have their way indefinitely. Just put a stop to it after you feel done.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Right. I think that's all for this topic then.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Oh, and keep the booklet.
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
Are you sure? I mean, it's yours, isn't it?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-MilkaAhlroos.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
I have memorized every part of it. Besides, it's just printer paper and ink! What does that cost to make? Less than one Svenska Krone! Shit's dirt cheap, but the information is priceless!

See? I already have another one here! ♪
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiStåhlberg.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
Yeah, and "keep it secret, keep it safe".
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-EmiliaContacts.jpg
DT-OpenQuote.png
*giggle* Let me guess: Gandalf?
DT-CloseQuote.png


DT-HeidiB.png
DT-OpenQuote.png
You know it!

I wonder what else I should ask about…
