This is insane! I've never seen anything like this!
That makes two of us… or three, I guess…
This actually can't be happening. This is my mom we're talking about, with our family dog, doing this kind of stuff… It doesn't even look like she's particularly disgusted by it or anything… No, she's actually smiling…
Now that I think of it, I know who that man is… I don't know his name yet, but he lives in the house next door with his wife and daughter.
I also have a feeling I've seen that teenage girl somewhere…
Isn't that the same girl that served us at that beach café?
But why is she doing it with our dog?!
W-what should we even do?!
What do you mean nothing?! This is insane! We've gotta -
Stay. Hidden.
And calm your pants already…
I… I'm sorry… I'm just so shocked…
So am I… I have so many questions…
And speaking of questions… did you know, Heidi? About Venla, that is…
H-huh? N-no, but I… I had my suspicions…
Not at all surprising to see Danny involved though.
Yeah well, it's HIS yard…
I-I mean… it's not surprising to see him forcing girls to do nasty stuff…
Oh come on now… Danny wouldn't go THAT far…
So you girls know that old man?
Yep, that's Danny, the local police officer. Your next-door neighbour.
B-but Heidi said "force"! T-they can't force us to do such things, right?
Well, no, obviously not… that was a slip of a tongue... there HAS more to this…
But… Milka is right. We shouldn't stick around to find out…
Yeah, better skedaddle before they find out they're being spied on…
Go get your swimsuit so we can get out of here…
Right, swimsuit. That's what we came here for. But still, how can I think about anything else but what I just saw… I've got so many questions…
I'm sure I heard the front door to my house open up. This bitch's exactly not being quiet, so it's possible someone could find out. Daniel said our other neighbors are nothing to be worried about in this regard, but it could've been one of my kids. Sven rarely leaves his room while gaming, and I can't imagine him going to the store either when he already has all the stuff he needs. It's more likely that it was Emilia. She could've come to visit with her friends…
Could she have heard or even seen what's happening? I hope not…
What're you zoning out about, Laura? Looking over your shoulder like that…
O-oh, it's nothing… I thought I heard something, but I may just be getting a little jumpy…
Do you think we could've been spied on?
W-well, maybe not spied, but… it's possible someone could've heard us and come to check what was going on…
Let me see, I have my motion sensor cameras connected to the app on my phone. It shows some alerts around the one that's pointed toward your backyard, but it's kind of hard to see based on this footage if anything's been going on.
Yeah, kind of hard to see with those bushes…
I'm not sure if I want Daniel getting suspicious of my daughter, but at the same time… Is there much I can do about this situation? I'm not sure if I should tell him I heard the door opening and closing or not…
He's going over to check…
Could it have been an animal?
Sure it could've. Bugs, birds, foxes, and hedgehogs can give false signals. Still, doesn't seem like there's anyone here though.
Maybe I'm just being paranoid then…
I think we're in the clear. I'm happy to put it behind us as a false alarm.
At least we made it to a safe place, if what my friends are to be believed. Lover's beach, was it? Maybe we can finally discuss this instead of just running away…
What was that all about? I'm still in shock! Could that happen to us as well!?
W-well, no… surely not… I hope…
It did look like she was enjoying herself.
Milka, how can you even be so calm about this?!
Huh? I mean, I am shocked. I've never seen anyone do it with a dog, but…
For a moment I thought that was normal here or something…
But it obviously couldn't have been rape either. I mean, did you
see her? Did you
HEAR her?
I know! She was moaning
soooo hard…
Yeah, she would've been screaming a different tune if she was being punished or forced…
I sure would've… but somehow… that sounds even more impossible.
W-well, people are into different things, so… maybe that's her thing…
Like, I know it sounds fucking disgusting! Humans with dogs? Seriously!? I mean, I'm not one to kink-shame or anything, but…
Relax, breathe, I know what you mean…
And it's not like punishments are real anyway, so that's off the table…
They are real! The rules
ARE real!
Oh, stop! The rules are just for fun, safety and protection!
Both of you stop… please…
*sigh* It's probably pointless to argue it since there's no way she was actually being forced or anything…
Yeah, and I'm honestly WAY more curious about your mother, Emilia…
Me too! I had no idea she was like that!
She was undoubtedly enjoying it as well…
Yeah, it definitely wasn't just Danny's scheme.
SHE was in it as well, making the dog do that stuff…
I can't believe it! That's my own mother! I've known her all my life…
She is an adult, and just as we keep secrets from them, they sure as hell keep secrets from us…
I… I guess that's true…
You also talked about that Danny guy, did you not? Something about him forcing girls to do nasty stuff, wondering if he could be punishing that girl and whatnot…
That's Danny, alright. Daniel Nilsen. He loves bossing people around.
You said he's a police officer?
That's actually the least important detail of him. He is what we call a "Joker".
Errr, he's been… how should I put this… hand-picked to represent Kostikki.
Meaning that he works in his name, enforcing his will and rule of law. His job is to find and punish those who break the rules. Jokers even wear a special eight-pointed star as their badge!
You sure market him well as a cop.
Hahaha, I know… but that's because he kind of IS like a cop!
But what's this about him punishing people then? I thought anyone could punish a person with a black star…
Yes, it doesn't
have to be a Joker, but according to my granny, the Jokers are usually the first ones to find out if someone's been bad and have an unnatural ability to find black stars wherever they could be hiding…
That really sounds like something you girls should've explained in detail before…
We didn't tell you because it's nonsense! Come on, Milka. Nobody is actually chosen by any gods. This is all just about having fun, and you know it.
No!
…I mean, yes, it is just about fun…
…But these roles are real! These gods are real, and the influence they have over this land is real!
You'll see the proof if you ever break the rules!
Nobody's gonna actually do that!
Why not? Are you actually scared?
You're scared that there might be some truth to this stuff after all!
Please, stop fighting…
Maybe there is a way to test it out without breaking any rules…?
*sigh* We've talked about that, but Milka's never gotten any ideas.
Emilia! Cover me up! Since you brought that up like the smart girl you are, maybe YOU have an idea!
You're
really putting
ME on the spot here? I'm the one supposed to be taught here…
Well, let me think… hmmmm…
You said something about an eight-pointed badge, didn't you?
If the Jokers are hand-picked by Kostikki, does that mean not just everyone can wear one? Is that a rule?
Yeah, it is a rule. You can't wear one if you're not chosen by Kostikki…
Maybe one of us could try wearing one and see what happens.
Fine then. This is stupid and nothing's gonna happen anyway.
Do it then. I dare you. Here's a black pen.
Why do you even have one with you…
You never know when it comes in handy!
Besides, the Joker's badge IS black, so you've gotta use it if you want to test Emilia's theory out…
This is so stupid and pointless… but my heart still beats a little harder just thinking about putting the black pen on my skin…
Now, let's see about this. It's a little bit more complicated to draw a star like this, but maybe if I focus on just drawing lines first, then move on to filling them… I can't make it perfectly symmetrical, but this should be good enough…
There! A black eight-pointed star!
…And? Nothing's happening.
Maybe it won't happen right away.
All I see is a black five-pointed star…
Is she kidding with me?
★ No… this can't be real…
I guess it did happen right away after all…
Fuck, fuck, fuck! Wash it off, wash it off quickly!
Oh, thank fuck it came off…
Oh my word, I thought I had been cursed…
I did see an eight-pointed star first, I'm sure of it. But since you could wash it off… you were simply warned…
That really just happened…
I… I'm sorry, I should've believed you…
It's alright. Most don't take this stuff seriously, so don't feel sorry.
Honestly, I also had my doubts about whether this stuff was real…
So, what does this mean for us?
W-well this means w-we must take this even more seriously…
I'm so shaken! I'm almost afraid to search my skin! What if I have a new one somewhere in my body? What if HE is gonna find me now!?
I should've just believed Milka… I'm so stupid…
Should we be worried about Daniel then? Since he's a Joker, I mean…
Not any more than you would normally. After all, Danny is still Danny.
But he likes to force girls to do nasty stuff, like Heidi said…
I mean, yeah, but he still can't go against our explicit boundaries. He must follow the same rules as everyone else does.
Still, like I said, Danny is still Danny. He
LOVES to take things far and encourage us to do perverted things. Even if we say "no", he won't stop trying. He might dial it down a little, but even still, he
won't stop trying. It can be a little irritating given how pushy he is, but he's ultimately harmless, so don't get too worried about him.
Yeah, I mean, he's scary, but… he's not awful or anything, just a little scary. Kind of like a "bad cop" from an American police drama or something.
Exactly! Harsh in his methods, but ultimately on the side of the law.
I've done it with him a couple of times, and it's always fun, honestly. He always makes me climax, which is a positive…
Same! I
DO have a soft spot for him…
Are there any other Jokers then?
Sure are! But I don't know most of them.
Maybe your mother's a Joker too?
Yeah, I doubt it. I mean, she just moved here. Granny says the gods don't trust outsiders all that much…
I might have to get used to the idea that my mother might be a Joker too, although if what Milka is saying is true… perhaps not? She knows her stuff, so she's probably right. Still, I had no idea mom would be into that kind of stuff as well. It was her secret to keep, one that I wasn't supposed to even find out, but how can you blame me? I didn't discover her because I wanted to…
Enough of that. Let's just move past what we saw and go about our day.
It's probably a good idea to keep this as a secret between us too…
No objections from me. And I should probably get naked and have you girls inspect me in case there's a new black star on my body…
So… you're suggesting that we change here?
Why not? We do it all the time. And Heidi, just draw a pink star back on your arm. If it disappears or turns black, you know you're still cursed.
★ There.
Doesn't look like anything's happening. I hope that means I'm in the clear.
It probably does since you always behave well!
Let's just get around to changing then, and at least try to enjoy our day…
