#1 of The Golddroid

My first writing submission in a long time!

This is my part of a trade with the amazingly wonderful and sweet Golddream from FurAffinity. He'll also be doing story commissions for me in the near future, but I wanted to give him a bit of a gift to show my visions, as well as show everyone else the kind of writing I'm capable of.

This would be an example of a "short", or $20 commission.


So, today is the day! Lurdanjo thought to himself. If he had known even for a split second just what would happen, he would have reacted a bit stronger than simply sitting in his living room chair reading the newspaper and just barely giving a glance at the date. Yes, he knew about this day for a while already, but it was a silly announcement, nothing that could be that exciting.

He knew what he liked, and he knew what he considered to be absolutely astonishing. No one else's version of 'astonishing' would excite him nearly as much, and so when he was told about the exciting offer to take a part in, he only agreed because it felt like an adequate time waster. At least that's what Fertilis Spa seemed to want him to think at the time. The draconid didn't know much about the place other than that it was an all-male retreat for adults and seemed to offer extensive programs for entertainment, enrichment, and pleasure. Danji knew a thing or two about pleasure and had many kinky ideas of his own, but nothing that could be offered in real life.

Indeed, his real life was filled with doubt and uncertainty. Never feeling comfortable enough around other people, especially the types of males that he desperately craved, he often resolved to being "forever alone", a teasing label he accepted with bitter humor. Perhaps it was just as well, because he wasn't all that interested in real life sex anyway. Too many complications, too many disgusting tendencies from other people, too many worrisome feelings afterward.

And yet that was what the spa had presented for Lurdanjo to enjoy. Some kind of experimental procedure that would start with a delivery and end with him as "the happiest man in the world". Right, he thought to himself with a growing smirk, drumming his slender fingers against the chair's armrest. Oh, and there was that whole spiel about magic-infused nanotechnology involved, too! The draconid barely even believed in magic, only knowing it as a means to an end for elemental control and, under extreme circumstances, mild alchemy and molecular arrangement, but he was sure that, by definition, it wouldn't work very well with nanotechnology. Even letting alone that nanotechnology existed yet, he knew that magical capabilities were limited to an organic user and there had never been a single recorded instance of elemental power or alchemy working with technological devices.

So it wasn't a surprise that his expectations were this low. He had been burned before, and it seemed nearly impossible to change that trend this late. He had lived 21 years with failure and broken promises, to abandonment and betrayal. Some pleasurable experience was not going to suddenly turn him into the happiest man in the world. At least it was free.

A knock echoed across the room, the familiar sound of knuckles rapping across the worn out wood of his front door. Looks like it's go time, Lurdanjo decided, rocking forward to throw his feet onto the floor in front of him, standing up and stretching his arms before making his way to the front of the small apartment, past the kitchen area.

First he decided to look through the peephole. He never quite knew what to expect when someone knocked on his door anyway, and he wasn't used to having visitors, so it was good to check. In the fisheye lens was... well, the figure was too tall to see too clearly, but what was visible at that moment was a rather large and brawny chest pressing out a striped button-up shirt. Definitely a representative from that spa!

Lurdanjo shrunk back in his stance, shaking mildly as he thought about opening that door. He always felt vulnerable anyway, but especially so in front of, ironically, the ones he felt most physically attracted to. He loved the sight of a big muscular guy, always watching for those gorgeous pecs and biceps at the beach, and had great fantasies of just curling up in those huge arms in love and safety, but had long given up on that fantasy. He had to, it simply wasn't very realistic to think of someone that amazing having such personal love for him.

Wrinkling the side of his mouth, he shook his head silently, reaching for the doorknob and opening the way into his small apartment. "Hello?" he asked as politely as possible, but his heart was still racing with uncertainty and a slight tinge of fear.

The man before him was unquestionably handsome, and wore a bright, calming smile on his face. "Hello! I'm from the Fertilis Spa. I believe you were expecting me?"

"Yeah. You're here for that demonstration, right?"

The corners of the larger male's mouth curled upward into a warm grin. "I am. Please, may I come in?"

Might as well let him, Danji figured, nodding and widening the door, first unclipping the dead bolt and chain locks, gesturing for the representative to come in, who did so immediately. His large feet strained the boards of the floor underneath the old carpet, causing a soft squeaking noise with each step. Closing the door behind them both, the draconid took a closer look at his guest.

He was a dragon, much like Danji, but that was about where the similarities ended. Golden colored flesh-like scales adorned his entire body, topped off with short, sharp black hair, trimmed as if fresh from the armed forces, with a figure to match! Even with full clothing on, it was easy to tell just how impressively healthy and muscular he looked. His arms rippled with great strength as they swayed back and forth in his stance, large golden hands topped out with five digits and intimidatingly sharp little claws on each end. His eyes were a haunting icy grayish blue in color, matching almost seamlessly with slitted black pupils that somehow radiated such energy and care in them, almost instantly putting the smaller draconid at ease. In his hand was a small briefcase, also an icy gray-blue, with the golden Fertilis Spa logo printed on the front.

Lurdanjo directed the golden dragon to his couch, as he feared that the visitor was almost too large for his regular chair, standing at almost seven feet tall. As the guest sat, the smaller draconid looked at him intently, curiously, crossing his arms over his chest with a raised eyebrow, not showing infinite patience.

"Allow me to get started!" the golden dragon stated warmly, a bellowing deep masculine voice that seemed meant to seduce the smaller dragon, and it was strangely effective. He set his briefcase on the glass table in the center of the living room, pulling his arms back slowly, deliberately, those massive biceps plainly visible through the dress shirt fabric. "So, how much do you know about the program you will take a part in?"

Danji took a seat in the original chair he had started in, crossing his legs and propping up his goatee'd chin on his intertwined fingers. "Umm, not terribly much. Something about offering a unique companionship program based on the," Lurdanjo started playfully gesturing with his fingers to show his enthusiasm, or sarcastic lack thereof, "-amazing- breakthroughs in magic and nanotechnology! Heh, not sure how that will really apply to me."

"Well, sir, today is your lucky day, because...!"

The smaller draconid interrupted impatiently. "Yeah, I know, you wanna sell me admission to your spa or something. Look, I don't make all that much money, I think it's pretty obvious from the conditions of this place here. I don't think I can afford it. Scratch that, I -can't- afford it. Even if it seems cheap, even if it's only twenty dollars a month, I assure you that it's too much."

That didn't stop the golden dragon from smiling. "I assure you, Lurdanjo, that you can. For you, what I am offering is completely free of charge."

Danji quirked his eyebrow again, eyes widening a little. "Yeah? How do you even know my name?" Well, of course, he came to his house and had his basic information, but still! "And what's your name, anyway?"

That smile never wavered. "All in due time, sir. Please, let me show you what I've brought with me, it will explain everything."

A briefcase had hardly ever explained everything in the past, but Lurdanjo was too ingrained in the fellow draconid's gorgeous masculine voice, charisma and warmth oozing out of every syllable, to protest it. The two large thumbs pressed against the unlocked tabs of the briefcase, springing the hinges upward with a pleasant metallic slapping sound, then both hands wrapped around the sides, lifting up the front. Inside would explain everything.

Not at first, though; the briefcase merely contained a few pages hastily clipped together and what looked like a smart device with a five by three inch touchscreen. The golden dragon carefully took both out, offering them to Lurdanjo with a smoother curl of his smile. "Go on, take them."

Danji complied, tilting his head in confusion as he grabbed the pages first from those large golden hands, gazing at the first page. At first it looked like some boring official form, with at least a dozen areas already highlighted to initial and sign, with the Fertilis Spa logo all over the place. There was another strange logo there, too, one that read "MERVAS" and had a strangely rigid peacock tail logo design to the right of the lettering. It looked like an official company, but he had never heard of them before.

"Look, I really don't want to sign anything before I know what I'm getting," Danji sighed.

"You can wait until you've read the rest of the documents there and have had some experience with the product," the other simply stated, leaning forward.

"Right, okay. Let's see here..." Lurdanjo peeled the first page away and tucked it into the back of the stack, straightening them on the table before reapplying the paperclip. It read:

"Congratulations on your acceptance of your very own piece of Fertilis Spa!

"THE GOLDDROID"

MALE FETISH AND LOVER'S MODEL

CLASS "SUPREME"

We earnestly hope that you will enjoy the first of our greatest class of companion and entertainment androids yet! Please read on for your first-run basic-start instructions."

Now that eyebrow had quirked hard enough to give the poor draconid a headache. "Umm..."

The golden dragon grinned softly, perfect white teeth showing confidently, yet his eyes were kind and gentle. "Do you understand, now?"

Lurdanjo flipped the page, skimming:

"There are four classes of companion and entertainment android, in order of luxury and capability. They are Basic, Expanded, Deluxe, and Supreme. Although the basic looks are the same, each class offers more capabilities, more intelligence, and better overall quality.

You may also have chosen between a standard model, a lover's model, a fetish model, or a combination fetish and lover's model. Depending on your preferences, your android may

experience great amounts of mental, emotional, and intellectual growth. This is normal."

The draconid chuckled. "What the heck is all of this? It's gotta be some sort of joke." The more he thought about it, the more it made him feel sick to his stomach that someone would play such a cruel joke on him, getting his hopes up for something that seemed so amazing.

"It's no joke," the golden dragon uttered, extending his other hand to give Lurdanjo the touch pad device. While he did so, his eyes seemed to grow more vibrant, perhaps excited.

"Okay, and what's this?" Danji uttered, taking the device in his hand. It, too, had the Fertilis Spa logo and MERVAS logo on the back, the entire front taken up by a capacitive touch screen that booted up as soon as he held it. There were a staggering number of options and applications on it, but the one that caught his eye was the "New to MERVAS?" button, as well as a small spinning model in the upper left corner. His finger brushed across that model, and it quickly zoomed in to fill the screen.

With the most realistic rendering he had ever seen, a three dimensional model of the golden dragon in his living room, set to a neutral pose, rotated with its arms outstretched to its sides. Around the model were pieces of three dimensional text that rotated not quite in sync with the figure, pointing to various sections of the dragon's body. Some lines would disappear and be replaced with other lines, giving up to the second updates on the dragon's vital signs.

The draconid's heart raced, eyes wide as he looked up to his guest. "You... you're..."

The golden dragon beamed proudly, his eyes suddenly and unmistakably glowing a bright blue light from underneath the flesh of the eyeball. "I am the newest and best in the line of Fertilis androids, manufactured by MERVAS. And, if you will have me, I am yours."

Danji's jaw dropped. "You... that's impossible, androids can't exist yet!" He seemed flabbergasted, not quite prepared to debate that possibility, however.

The golden dragon returned to that peaceful smile, setting his massive arms down on the couch around his body. "I detected a possibility of you not believing me. I can prove it in any way you'd desire. Go on, ask me to do something, anything. I will obey your every desire and wish so long as it does not put you or others in danger. You may also do anything you wish to me, and I will not object. Anything at all," that last line oozed out of him with heightened seduction.

Only time would tell just how depraved Lurdanjo's fantasies would prove to be, and just how much capacity the golden android would have to accommodate his every desire...
