In a Galaxy Not So Far Away:- A USB Tale

Post by Stormtrooper1990 »

Following on from my cosplay related story set during the E3 gaming convention, I now turn my attention to another thing that is close to my heart; Star Wars. Here self proclaimed super fan Adrienne Tyler has been thrown out of the annual May 4th Star Wars Convention at the LA Convention Centre, before she could have the chance to meet her idols. But Adrienne refuses to be denied and inspired by a particular scene in A New Hope she comes up with a bold plan to infiltrate the convention. Will she get to meet her idols? This is her story…


Outside The LA Convention Centre, Los Angeles, California, Saturday May 4th 2024 11:00am


“For the third time, Ms Tyler! You are not getting into this convention!” Snarled the beefcake security guard, an ebony skinned heavy set but muscled man who crossed his arms, forming a barrier with his equally imposing partner; a lean and handsome dark haired man. “Yeah! The studio warned us about you! The crazy super fan who got a restraining order and a ban slapped on her skinny ass because she stalked Mr Lucas, Mr Filoni and the entire cast!” He said with a smug look. Adrienne, a slim pretty girl of 21 with her honey blonde hair braided into pigtails and big blue eyes flung her arms wide in exasperation. “Come on, that was all a misunderstanding, they all love me really. I mean how the hell was I supposed to know that Daisy Ridley would be out in her backyard sunbathing completely naked?” The two men glanced at each other at the mental image before turning back to her. “You're not getting past us, girly! Now get lost! There's a queue forming behind you.” The dark skinned guard said stoically, remaining unmoved by Adrienne's pleas.


She roared in frustration before waving her right hand across. “You will let me into the convention. Now” The two men looked at each other before bursting out laughing, Adrienne went a bright shade of red as the queue behind her joined in. “W-what?! Are you some kind of nutjob?!” Choked the black security guard with laughter as his colleague tried to contain himself. “Haha! This isn't the…hahah!…movies, little girl! Now go run along before we call the cops!” Adrienne gritted her teeth. “I'm Adrienne Tyler and I will get into that convention!” she pointed an accusing finger at them. “Mark my words! You simple minded cretins won't stop me!” Stamping her feet, she brushed past a fan dressed as Chewbacca, leaving the crowd to jeer and point their own fingers behind her back.


Stalking away from the main entrance, Adrienne was seething. How dare they laugh at me? Those muscle bound jocks who've probably haven't seen any of the movies or all of the series. I mustn't give up, Luke and Han found a way onto the Death Star to rescue Leia by using stormtrooper disguises. Wait?! That's it! My way in! Stopping, she scanned around looking for some stormtroopers, and sure enough she saw a group of about three girls, judging by their slender feminine profiles under their white armour, walk towards her chatting excitedly passing dangling from around their necks. They all had the telltale blue markings on their arms, helmets and breastplates of Vader's loyal but fanatical 501st legion, themselves the largest band of elite stormtrooper cosplayers in the world. I would have joined them but they turned down my application because of my criminal record, the fools. Fortunately, all the girls looked to be her size but there was no sign of them splitting up until the girl on her left glanced at her phone, giving Adrienne an opportunity.


“Hey guys, I just need to text Josh and let him know we've made it.” She said, her local accent tinny under her helmet. “Yeah no problem, Leanne. We'll see you by the front doors and wait up for you.” Her friend in the middle waved as Leanne disappeared into the alley. Waiting for two other stormtroopers to walk past her, Adrienne stalked after her.

Side Alley, 11:12am

Seeing the young stormtrooper with her back to her, far too distracted by her smartphone, Adrienne took a small length of loose aluminium pipe from a nearby skip. Testing the weight, Adrienne crept up quietly behind the unsuspecting Leanne. Don't turn around. Please don't turn around… she thought anxiously as the girl at last finished her text. Damn, it's now or never Adrienne. Lunging quickly, she swung the pipe aiming for the weak spot at the base of the neck between the helmet and rear backplate. Leanne let out a short tinny squeak of pain as the blow connected, collapsing onto the concrete in a clatter of armour that sounded like a bull in a china shop where she remained still on her belly. The stormtroopers phone shattered close by as it fell from limp fingers.


Adrienne gasped in shock, dropping the pipe and bringing her hand to her mouth. “Oh my god! I have killed her!” Quickly she knelt by the prone form, pressing her fingers to Leanne's neck to check for a pulse. “Oh thank god!” She breathed with relief feeling a weak but steady rhythm. Rolling the unconscious girl onto her back, Adrienne pulled off her helmet. “Wow you're cute.” She quipped seeing the face of a young woman not much older than herself, with gentle rounded features and high cheekbones with short shoulder length dark brown hair, tied into a ponytail a single piercing through her left nostril, who looked peaceful as she slept. “I'm really sorry about hurting you and stealing your clothes but I really need to go in and see them in the flesh. I know a fan like you would do the same in my position.” She smiled, caressing Leanne's sweet face before she stripped off her leather jacket, blue jeans, sneakers and Star Wars t-shirt.


Now wearing just her black t-shirt bra and black thong with the rebel alliance logo in red on the gusset, Adrienne looped the convention pass over Leanne's head before carefully removing each plastic armour plate from the black body glove, impressed by the girls dedication and eye for detail. “These must have set you back a fortune online. Good on you, trooper. Again, I’m so sorry about all this…” shaking the feelings of guilt from her mind, Adrienne rolled Leanne onto her side, unzipping the bodysuit from the rear and peeling it from her slim athletic body. “Whoa! Sweet undies, sister! Did you get these online as well, I wonder?” She cried seeing the underwear of the scantily clad Leanne, who was only dressed in her thin white cropped vest with the imperial logo flashed across her young buoyant C-cup breasts, the nipples peeking stiffly through the fabric and showing off her pierced trim navel. And a sexy white g-string thong with the face of a stormtrooper flashed across the front, protecting her modesty. “I would so steal those, honey if the thought of taking your undies wasn't so unhygienic.” Adrienne chuckled as she pulled on the body glove before attaching on the armour plate a piece at a time.


After pulling on Leanne's helmet Adrienne knelt by the cute unconscious underwear clad brunette. “I guess I should tie you up now. That's what they would do in the movies, right?” Taking her Star Wars t-shirt, she sighed reluctantly, tearing up her favourite shirt to bind Leanne's wrists and ankles before gagging her. Then scooping up the bound naked girl she opened up the dumpster. “Here, sweet Leanne. I suppose you should count yourself lucky that it isn't a trash compactor and there isn't a dianoga to eat you.” She gently lowered the girl into the dumpster, then tossed in her broken phone along with her own discarded clothes. “But on the flip side, you'll probably end up discovering an incredible new smell. So sorry about that. Anyway, thanks for your costume fits me like a glove. May the force be with you, Leanne.” With that she closed the lid on the unconscious naked girl. Checking that her rifle was securely holstered, Adrienne walked out of the alley.


Outside the Convention Centre, 11:18am


“Hey Leanne. How's Josh? Is he still mad at you?” Asked the lead stormtrooper, voice slightly distorted by her helmet as Adrienne approached them shrugging. “Guy’s a total asshole. He'll never understand what it means to be one of us fans.” She lied mimicking Leanne's voice, which wasn't difficult thanks to the helmet. The other girl, dressed as a 501st scout trooper and who was slightly shorter, clapped a hand on her shoulder. “Ain't that the truth. Come on, times a wastin’. Let's get inside before they start the competition without us.” Excited, her two companions turned to the very same muscle bound oaths who had denied Adrienne entry. “Let us pass or face the might of the empire!” The lead stormtrooper said imperiously to the men, the ebony skinned guard snorted with laughter, checking their passes as his leaned companion rolled his eyes. “Ooooh scary. Go on get out of here…” they both stepped aside letting the girls pass. “...fucking crazy fans.” He muttered under his breath.


Suckers. A disguise works every time, just like on the Death Star. Smiling under her stolen helmet, Adrienne followed Leanne's friends into the Convention centre bouncing on her feet with anticipation.


The Convention Centre Foyer, 11:25am


“Look, we've made it! With five minutes to spare!” The leader stormtrooper giggled as she and her friend dragged Adrienne towards one of the large function rooms. “Look, what are you guys talking about? We're are we going?” The scout trooper cocked her head. “Are you joking? It's the annual Best Dressed Stormtrooper awards!” She gestured to the sign which read ‘Best Dressed Stormtrooper 2024’. “We've spent months creating these suits and you've haven't shut up about it. Legion pride is at stake!” The two girls did a fist bump. Adrienne nodded, repeating the gesture. “Oh yeah, sorry. Now I remember. It's the heat, making me forget is all.” Sighing, Leanne's friends grabbed her hands and led her inside. I really need to ditch these guys or I’am not going to make the 12:30 press conference with Lucas, Filoni and the others.


Conference Room 1A, 11:30am


“Good morning, my fellow imperials and welcome to the 2024 annual Best Dressed Stormtrooper awards!” A man dressed in a very life-like Darth Vader outfit, complete with voice changer, said to the cheering crowd of stormtroopers of different regiments and disciplines, as he gesticulated on the stage. “So shall we get this show on the road!? In memory of Emperor Palpatine, may the cosmos rest his soul even if money grabbing Disney execs didn't.” That drew laughter from the crowd, including Adrienne herself who could only agree. “So let's see our five candidates. Step forward onto the stage.”


“Break a leg, Leanne.” The scout trooper said, pushing Adrienne forward. Taking a deep breath she walked onto the stage to a loud applause, taking a bow she saw the four other candidates approach the stage; the first a shoretrooper from Rogue One, followed by a sexy looking Spec Ops Deathtrooper clad in imposing pitch black armour, a royal guard resplendent in red armour and cape and finally a snowtrooper straight from the battlefields of Hoth. The five each swapped friendly nods and greetings, Adrienne noting that the Deathtrooper and Shoretrooper were also women. Vader clapped his hands together. “ Excellent! Now for our first round of three. The candidate must recite the imperial oath of allegiance. Those that do so in a clear and imposing way will receive the maximum amount of points. So up first is the Shoretrooper. Take it away, trooper…” Adrienne shuffled her feet nervously. Looks like I have no choice but to participate, hopefully it won't take too long. Huh, I hope no one has found Leanne yet or I will be in serious trouble…”


The Side Alley, 11:33am


Feeling a sharp pain in the back of her neck, Leanne Kowolski’s doe shaped blue eyes fluttered open. She panicked as her eyes became accustomed to the darkness. What the fuck happened? The last thing I remember was texting Josh then a stabbing pain at the back of my neck, then I woke up here. Wait? Is this a dumpster!? What the fuck am I doing in a dumpster?! Looking down at herself, she screamed, finding her armour missing and her limbs bound and mouth gagged, hands resting in her lap. Oh my god! I’am naked! Where is fuck is my armour? Did some bitch knock me out, steal my armour and left me trussed up in a dumpster?! Like some Thanksgiving turkey? I thought this only happened in the movies! I have to get out of here, find help.

“Mmmph!” Leanne screamed through her gag, growing bright red from the effort mixed in with the anger at her absurd situation. After hearing no sounds of rescue, Leanne sighed. God damn LA, nobody notices anything. What if I kicked the dumpster? Someone's bound to hear that, surely? Laying on her back, the bound brunette tucked her feet and kicked hard twice the blows sounding like the ringing of church bells. Feeling jarring pain in her feet and ankles, screamed for emphasis. “Hmmmlp!” But still no rescue came. God damn it! I can't just give up!

Looking down at her ankles, Leanne noticed that the binds for her ankles had come loose. She could move her legs! Maybe the binds aren't so tight after all? I can get out of this! Noticing that her wrist binds were only frayed bits of torn t-shirt, the young brunette pulled at the binds with all her strength, eyes lighting up with hope as she saw the tear get wider and wider, before a ripping sound heralded her freedom. Pausing to massage her sore neck and wrists, Leanne tore off her gag taking a breath of foetid smelly hair, regretting it almost immediately. Not wanting to be in this rat trap a moment longer, she pushed upon the lid with a grunt blinking as the light from the California sun assaulted her eyes. Jumping out wearing just her scanty underwear, Leanne cracked her neck before running out of the alley towards the front entrance.


The Convention Centre, Front Entrance 11:40am


“So yeah, I was on the beach for at least 5 minutes and did like a hundred pushups. Then before you know where you are, I’m surrounded by hot chicks.” Ebony skinned security guard Billy Dee smiled as he showed his friend Harrison the footage of himself on muscle beach, surrounded by nubile young women in bikinis. “Dude? What's your secret? I go to LA fitness on Olympic and never seem to pull any girls. Despite being so shredded?” Before he could answer Billy Dee looked up smiling as a cute brunette dressed only in her Star Wars underwear, looking distressed and very angry approached them. “Hey Harry.” He gestured with his head to the girl. “What's wrong with this picture? Girl's on a nature walk.” Harrison sniggered his eyes on the brunette’s buoyant breasts and travelling hips. “Looks like we've struck gold.” He smiled as the scantily clad brunette stopped in front of them.


“Don't you look a little…underdressed, honey. There's a strip bar just down the road.” Harrison chuckled, as the girl went bright red covering her modesty with her hands, feeling Billy Dee's eyes all over her. “What?! Shut the fuck up and stop staring at my tits! My name is Leanne Kowolski. Some crazy girl cold cocked me in the alley and stole my armour and pass! You must help me get them back!” The dark skinned security guard's eyes widened. “Shit. Really? Are you for real?” He turned to Harrison. “I thought this sort of thing only happens in the movies.” Leanne put her hands on her hips, grinding her teeth. “Well it's very much real, assholes. It just happened to me. So will you help me or not?!” She added irritably. Harrison then sighed, facepalming.


“ Oh crap! We just let in three girls who were dressed as stormtroopers. What if it’s that crazy fan from before? That Adrienne chick?” Leanne gasped in shock. “You're saying this crazy bitch stole my gear and is in there with my friends, Jodie and Peyton right now?! Get the fuck outta my way. I'm getting my armour back with or without you! And I know just where she's going to be.” Angrily she barged right past them, marching towards the front entrance. Quickly the two men fell into step behind, eyes firmly on her tight pert ass. “And stop staring at my ass! Or I will sue the both of you!” She roared, pushing the doors open, startling a group of jedi knights.


Conference Room 1A, 11:45am


“Well it looks like our servants of the empire have given it their all, impressing us with their imperial oaths of allegiance, marching skill and marksmanship. But of course there can only be one winner…” Darth Vader said to the cheers of the crowd of stormtroopers below the stage, including Leanne's friends. Adrienne bounced on her feet glancing at the table behind them, where a small trophy, shaped like the imperial wheel with a Stormtrooper helmet in the middle stood. Actually, it would be nice to win something for a change. I haven't won anything in my entire life. The sound of Darth Vader clearing his throat drew her attention. “The winner of the Best Dressed Stormtrooper 2024 is-” Suddenly the sound of the double doors bursting open drew everyone's attention. To Adrienne's horror there stood Leanne, face flushed red with anger wearing only her underwear flanked by the two meatheads from the front door.


“That's my armour, bitch! You stole it from me!” She screamed pointing an accusing finger right at Adrienne who began to back away as the two security guards ran towards the stage. Peyton, dressed as a scout trooper, looked at her friend. “Leanne?! What the hell!?” Jodie, the other stormtrooper, looked back at the stage. “ She's an imposter! For the honour of the 501st, get her!” The whole crowd of stormtroopers surged forward like a white tidal wave. Reacting quickly, Adrienne tipped the table on the advancing security guards making them stumble before leaping off the stage and running pell mell out of the rear door.



The Convention Centre Foyer, 11:51am


Not stopping to take a breath, Adrienne weaved through the bustling crowds of fans and cosplayers trying to collect her thoughts. Oh shit, I thought I bound her up tight. Well it doesn't matter now, I need to get out of this outfit and find another before I get arrested. Looking around she weighed up her options, there were many potential outfits she could choose from but this was too public she needed a discreet opportunity to steal another outfit. Then she noticed a girl wearing the armour of Bo Katan Kryze, from the Clone Wars animated series and The Mandalorian, walk towards the ladies bathroom. The distinctive white owl detailing on her sky blue spartan like helmet was what gave it away. She was also wearing a matching breastplate, jetpack, greaves and a brown leather utility belt and holster, underneath which was a dark navy jumpsuit. Adrienne grinned under her helmet. Excellent, I always liked Bo plus the helmet should hide my face and evade those meathead guards. Taking a look around making sure the coast was clear, she followed Bo Katan into the toilet.


Ladies Bathroom, 11:56am


Taking off her helmet and vambraces, Bethany Evesham rinsed her hands under the tap before splashing water on her face, breathing a sigh of relief as she felt the cold water caress her skin. Ah, that's better. I love wearing the armour and feeling like a Mandalorian but it can get mighty stuffy in there. Looking up at her reflection, Bethany grinned, liking what she saw. At 23 she was a looker with pretty tomboyish slightly squared features, slender cheekbones and bright hazel eyes with short ash blonde hair cut into a pixie style. Looking back down, she switched off the tap then felt a sharp pain on the back of her head. “Ugh!” She cried collapsing to the ground unconscious with a crash onto the tiled floor, laying on her side.


Lowering the stormtrooper rifle, Adrienne knelt by the unconscious girl checking her pulse. “Sorry about this…Bethany.” She quipped reading the name on her pass. “But I need your costume.” Holstering the rifle, she took Bethany's ankles and dragged her into the nearest cubicle.


Seating the unconscious blonde onto the toilet bowl, Adrienne slipped out of her stolen stormtrooper armour taking a deep breath as she pulled off the helmet. “Oh it feels so good to breathe air again, if only for a little bit. Anyway, I’m ready when you are Bethany.” After pulling off the girl's greaves, Adrienne straddled her, unclipping the breast plate and jet pack at the shoulders, unbelting her holster before unzipping the jumpsuit from the rear. She peeled the garment from Bethany's shoulders, peeling the garment from her slender shoulders and down her slim, lithe body smiling at the girls choice in underwear. “Cute panties, sweetie. I always wanted a pair of Grogou panties. But don't worry you can keep yours” She quipped, admiring Bethany's slim body clad only in her lace trim black camisole and pink trimmed black bikini cut panties with Grogou patterning protecting her modesty.


Quickly dressing in Bethany’s Bo Katan costume, Adrienne felt her tits perk up at the sight of Bethany's nipples peeking through her thin camisole. “Uh, I never thought stealing other girls' clothes would turn me on so much. Boy it's such a rush!” She tapped the girl's cheek as she bound and gagged her with toilet paper. “Well thanks for your outfit. And sorry for breaking the Mandalorian code by seeing your face, but I will keep it between us.” Giggling she closed the cubicle door on the unconscious Bethany, slumped on the toilet.


Looking into the mirror, Adrienne pulled on the vambraces then took the helmet with reverence and gently lowered it onto her head. Taking a deep breath she looked at her reflection. “This is the way.” She grinned as she turned leaving the ladies bathroom.


The Convention Centre, Main Foyer, 12:02pm


As soon as she walked back into the foyer, Adrienne had walked straight into the two meatheads searching for her. “Wait a second.” Said the dark skinned guard holding his arm out. “You didn't happen to see a girl dressed in stormtrooper armour with blue markings swing past here did you?” Thinking quickly, Adrienne chuckled, shaking her head . “Sweetie, it's a Star Wars Convention. You can't swing a dead cat without knocking over a few of the Emperor's finest. No, I haven't seen your stormtrooper. Can I pass now?” The security guard raised his arm as his partner looked at her figure appreciatively. “Have a nice day.” He said as Adrienne quickly brushed past them, briskly walking around the corner towards the auditorium feeling the man's eyes watch her backside travel.


Harrison smiled as he watched the skintight profile of the girl disappear around the corner, with a dreamlike look on his face. Until a sharp elbow to his ribs brought him back to reality. “Knock it off, Harry.” Billy Dee glared sideways at him. “We can stare at the ladies all day after we find and arrest that crazy chick.” Massaging his ribs, Harrison cocked his head. “Hey now. Do you hear that? It sounds like a girl screaming but it's all muffled.” Straining his ears, Billy Dee's eyes widened in shock. “ It's coming from the bathroom! Come on!” The two men stormed into the bathroom.


Rushing into the toilet, they followed the muffled cries coming to the third cubicle along. Taking a deep breath, Billy Dee pushed open the door to reveal a bound blonde girl dressed only in her black underwear, Stormtrooper armour scattered at her feet. “Mmmph!” The girl screamed indignantly, growing a bright side of red. Taking in the attractive sight, the ebony skinned guard pulled down her gag “Mmmph- stop staring at me you damn perverts and help me! Some crazed girl must have knocked me out and stole my costume, one that took me 3 months to make!” Harrison sighed, facepalming. “Oh crap!” He said as Billy Dee got on his radio, calling for another paramedic.


Access Corridor to the Auditorium, 12:10pm


International mercenary and occasional assassin, Chloe Tanaka smiled as she took in a display of movie posters from episodes 1 through to 9. It makes a nice change from wearing something I didn't lift from a pretty little corpse, one I made myself. In fact her outfit; a long black hooded robe with a plunging neckline,that hid her mixed raced features but showed off her bared shoulders and arms, almond shaped brown eyes and shoulder length jet black hair, loose trousers and boots, complete with red lightsaber was a tribute to the sexy sith girls from the Old Republic MMORPG. Plus I'm just a sucker for bad girls, hell I’m dating Lexi after all.

It was Lexi who laughed the hardest when Chloe revealed her secret, but Chloe had simply told her that the only thing she liked other than sex and killing and stripping girls was Star Wars. Man if I were a sith and could crush a woman's throat with the force? Imagine the possibilities. Feeling a sense of arousal at the thought, Chloe turned to see a girl with an amazing slim figure and dressed as Bo Katan Kryze approach her, glancing nervously over her shoulder.


Adrienne sized up the cute Asian girl dressed in sith robes as she approached her. She's a little smaller than me but that hood should hide my face, I need to be quick in taking her out. Those two knuckle draggers could be right behind me. “Hey! Great Bo Katan costume, it really brings out your figure, babe.” Adrienne nodded, taking off her helmet. “Thanks, sweetie! I’m really sorry about this, but I really need your outfit!” She said before smashing the helmet across the girl's face with a dull clang, letting out a cute grunt of pain the sith girl was sent crashing to the floor unconscious. “Sorry honey, I'm really in a hurry.” Putting the helmet back on, she took the stricken girl by her ankles dragging her into a nearby broom cupboard.


Quickly and reluctantly, Adrienne stripped off the Bo Katan costume then knelt by the stricken girl brushing aside the guilt she felt at the large red bruise forming on her sweet face. “It's nothing personal…Chloe Tanaka.” she whispered, looping the Asian girl's pass over her head, unlacing the brunette's boots, pulling them off before unclipping her belt and whipping down her loose trousers from around her waist and down her long tanned legs. She blushed at the girl's choice in underwear, a solid red g-string thong with ‘sith in the sack’ stenciled in black across the small gusset, as she yanked off Chloe's robes eyes widening in surprise at the girls choice to go braless under her outfit. “Good on you for being brave.” She quipped admiring Chloe's small but firm breasts with dark brown rose petal areolas and trimmed toned body.


After getting dressed in Chloe's outfit, Adrienne took some duct tape from a shelf taping up the brunette's wrists and ankles, then tapping the girl's bruised face and gagging her with a strip. As an afterthought, she pocketed the tape before picking up the lightsaber and resting it on her shoulder. “Sorry about all this, Chloe. But I have to meet Lucas and Filoni, and nothing will stand in my way. Farewell.” With that she swept from the broom cupboard and quickly headed for the auditorium.


Outside the Auditorium, 12:17pm


Seeing a large crowd of cosplayers gather outside the glass doors leading to the auditorium, Adrienne shouldered her way to the front where a young man dressed as an imperial officer stood guard. Upon seeing her and glancing at her pass, he shook his head barring her path with his hand. “And just where do you’re going lady sith? This is for VIPs only.” Adrienne put her hands on her hips, keeping her hood up. “Oh come on, man. We are all fans here, right? Let me pass.” The man crossed his arms getting into character. “Yes we are but no VIP pass, no entry.” Stamping her foot, Adrienne raised her hand gripping it in an imitation of Vader's force grip pointing it at the man's throat. Behind her the crowd roared with laughter. “If only right? No pass, no entry, dark lady of the sith.” The officer laughed mockingly. Burning with both frustration and embarrassment, Adrienne barged her way through the crowd.


Stalking away from the laughing crowd, Adrienne spotted an attractive young woman with long ash brown coloured hair braided into the style favoured by Princess Leia in Return of the Jedi, angular features and prominent cheekbones with pale green-hazel almond shaped eyes. The girl was clad only in the iconic metal bikini worn by slave Leia and not much else showcasing her amazing trimmed figure, save a red VIP pass dangling between her ample C-cup breasts. Adrienne grinned. It looks like the force is with me after all. She thought as the Princess Leia cosplayer entered another ladies toilets. Gripping her stolen lightsaber, feeling it's weight Adrienne followed Princess Leia.


The Auditorium’s Ladies Bathroom, 12:21pm


Dropping her metal loincloth between her ankles, 22 year old Michelle Forrester let out a sigh of relief emptying her full bladder. It's a good thing I went before the big press conference, since I don't want to miss a moment of the new announcement they will be making. She had received many appreciative stares from men and even other women, which didn't phase the young woman from Calgary one bit. I thought the yanks would be more prudish, what with the new president but I'm glad to be proved wrong. Damn I feel so liberated in this outfit, just like sexy Carrie herself may she rest in peace. Feeling the last of her urine leave her bladder, Michelle cleaned herself then pulled her loincloth back up around her hips and flushing the toilet. Opening the cubicle door, she had taken barely a step before feeling a sudden blow on the back of her head. Letting out a small pained squeak, the last sensation the pretty brunette felt was the tiled floor rushing up to meet her then she lost consciousness.


Lowering the red lightsaber, Adrienne knelt by the unconscious girl breathing a sigh of relief as she checked her pulse then glanced at her VIP pass. “Michelle Forrester…well unfortunately for you cutie, our paths crossed but the force guided me to you. Let's get you naked, babe.” Rolling the girl onto her back, Adrienne took her by her bare ankles and dragged her back into the cubicle. After straddling the unconscious Michelle, she stripped off her stolen sith girl disguise before removing the cosplayers faux brass bracelets and anklets.


In no time at all, Adrienne had stripped the unconscious Michelle, surprised to discover that the girl had gone fully commando under her costume. “Now that's dedication! I have to match that myself.” Taking off her own underwear, Adrienne slipped on the accessories. “You're a true fan after all, I'm sorry it had to be this way, Michelle.” She remarked to the unconscious naked woman, slumped on the toilet bowl with her legs spread wide exposing her small pink clean shaven womanhood. As she got dressed in Michelle's costume, Adrienne admired the brunette's firm, pert breasts with puffy full perky areolas and the curves of her plum shaped ass.


After copying Michelle's Princess Leia hairstyle, Adrienne taped up the girl's limbs with duct tape before gagging her. “Thanks for the costume, sweetie. With it I can finally meet my idols. You cannot know how much this means to me! May the force be with you, Michelle.” Giving the girl a parting kiss on her forehead, Adrienne closed the cubicle door and skipped from the bathroom with a spring in her step.


Outside the Auditorium, 12:27pm


Making her way to the front of the line, Adrienne flashed a wink to the same man who had denied her entry holding out the pass. The guy stood open mouthed as his eyes travelled to her breasts, a lustful gleam in his eyes. “Cool outfit, sister! It really brings out your…um…features.” He stumbled on his words as Adrienne giggled. “Why thank you, lieutenant. I’ve only just got it.” She joked with disguised irony, yanking back her stolen pass playfully. Walking past the officer, Adrienne felt not only his eyes on her ass but the entire crowd. Feeling immense satisfaction, she pushed the door into the auditorium pleased that her gambit, her own infiltration into the death star had paid off.


Corridor Access To the Auditorium, the Same Moment


“How hard can it be to find one girl dressed as a fricking Manda-whatever? Hell, we even spoke to her!” Cried security guard Billy Dee as he and Harrison walked down the corridor leading to the auditorium. Harrison sighed, pinching his nose. “ I'm pretty sure that she went down this corridor. Damn we better get this girl before the stormtroopers get a hold of her, they are pissed and one of them has already called the cop-.” “Wait! Shh!” Hearing a low muffled sound, Billy Dee shot his hand up. “Do you hear that? It's coming from this cupboard.” He asked expectantly, a huge grin flashing across his chiseled features. “Let me guess? It's another naked, tied up girl?” Putting his hand on the door knob, the ebony skinned guard pushed the door wide open.


“Well, well. It must be our lucky day, eh Billy?” Harrison chuckled as they were greeted by a taped up half naked Asian girl of mixed descent, glared up at them with daggers wearing nothing except a red g-string thong. The girl groaned with pain as Billy Dee ripped the tape from her mouth. “I swear to God that if I get a hold of that fucking Mando girl, I’am going to wring her scrawny little neck and strip her corpse to get my outfit back!” She snarled with barely contained menace. Suddenly the two men looked at each other feeling an odd sense of fear. “So are you two just going to stare at me like a couple of clowns who've never seen a naked woman before? Or will you get me some goddamn clothes?! Believe me, I’m more than capable of doing that myself but you look like you have enough trouble as it is.” Chloe Tanaka winked at the two. Harrison turned, speaking into his radio to get a paramedic as Billy Dee worked to remove her binds.


Outside the Auditorium, 12:35pm


“So now we are looking for a sith girl, wearing a hooded robe? This just keeps getting better and better…” Harrison muttered under his breath as they stood outside the Auditorium. They had left the scary Asian girl, who had identified herself as Chloe Tanaka, in the care of paramedics. Billy Dee placed his hands on the back of his head. “She has to slip up sometime, we're this close to nailing her!” A woman's high pitched scream suddenly drew their attention to a nearby ladies restroom, glancing at each other they shrugged rushing inside.


They came to a young woman painted blue wearing a skimpy outfit and what could only be described as plastic head tails perched on her head, standing by a very naked brunette who she was freeing, a sith costume and lightsaber spread around her ankles. “Oh thank god! I came in here to pee and I found her trussed up and completely naked.” Tears were streaming down her face. “Please! Help me! M-my name is Michelle Forrester and some crazy girl stole my Princess Leia metal bikini that I spent 6 months m-making!” She let out a choked wail. “There, there. These guys are here to help. Aren't you?” The blue painted girl glared at Harrison as she comforted the naked girl. “Harrison blushed, turning away. Billy Dee flashed her a sympathetic smile. “Sorry honey, but this is important. What else did she steal?” Michelle wiped her tears away and let out a low shuddering breath. “M-my VIP pass! I was going to sit in on Dave Filoni’s press conference.” Without a word Billy Dee stormed from the bathroom with Harrison quickly in tow. “W-wait! What the hell?! Aren't you going to h-help me…” Michelle said weakly to their backs. The Aayla Secura cosplayer shook her head taking out her phone. “Typical men. Don't worry, Michelle I will if they won't.”


Just as they reached the doors to the auditorium, the two guards came face to face with a single LAPD officer, a pretty blonde woman with her honey blonde hair tied back into a bun and big blue eyes, wearing a short sleeve black uniform with white undershirt. The nameplate on her breast read ‘Austin’. “Officer Austin LAPD. We’ve got reports of a young caucasian female assaulting women and stealing their costumes. What's the situation?” Billy Dee filled her in on the crazy super fan and her antics and her description. The officer pinched the bridge of her nose. “Seriously? And here I thought this sort of thing happened only in the movies. LA. It gets crazier by the year. Well at least she won't be easy to miss.” Sharing a laugh with the young officer, they followed her into the auditorium.


The Auditorium, 12:38pm


Adrienne bounced in anticipation with the crowd as she watched George Lucas, with his patriarchal features and Dave Filoni with his cowboy hat and moustache, walk onto the stage to a rapturous applause. The self appointed super fan cheered with them as they took their seats. “Thank you, our loyal fanbase, for your continued support!” George shouted over the din of the cheering throng, before turning to Dave Filoni. “Yes! You are the very heart and soul of the franchise! Now for the part you've all been waiting for! We are pleased to announce the production of three new- " “You're busted!” Adrienne heard an all too familiar voice followed by a soft hand being placed on her shoulder.


Gulped she turned to see the two meatheads, accompanied by a pretty blonde cop who forced her hands into cuffs reading her rights, smug looks on their faces. “You can't do this!” Adrienne cried as she was being dragged away, the shocked crowd parting before her. “I only did what any loyal fan would do! George! Dave! Help me, please!” She pleaded with her idols as they leaned forwards whispering in each other's ears, before watching her with curiosity. “I said you had the right to remain silent.” The officer snarled, dragging her kicking and screaming out of the auditorium. “I wish to God that you'd exercise it.”


Outside the Auditorium, 12:45pm

Adrienne sighed as she was placed on the backseat of the police cruiser. She paused to look up at the officer. “That's a nice uniform, officer.” The cop shook her head, gesturing to her sidearm. “Don't get any ideas, sweetie. Or it's even longer in jail for you.” Slamming the door shut, Officer Austin got into the driver's seat and started the engine. Leaning back into the seat, Adrienne grinned as the convention centre receded in her window. “The force is still with me…” she uttered under her breath, hoping that like Princess Leia in the death star someone would come to her rescue.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY!


FILONI MAKES SURPRISE ANNOUNCEMENT AFTER CONVENTION INFILTRATION


By Casey Bosworth, Film and Television Correspondent


Following the bizarre arrest of 21 year old Adrienne Tyler, a local from West Hills for the gate crashing of the annual May 4th Star Wars Fan Convention and assault and robbery of four innocent young women, Mr Filoni the chief creative director of Lucasfilm made a shock announcement which we can exclusively feature below:-


"In light of the recent events and arrest of Ms Tyler, I become inspired by her daring and resourcefulness. Therefore it is with great pleasure that I announce that in the upcoming new series and movie trilogy we have decided to include more female to female disguise scenes in the series. We believe that is just the injection of inspiration that the franchise needed in this difficult time of economic uncertainty. Plus, it will underline the studios commitment to gender inclusivity. And I will petition the City of Los Angeles to allow Ms Tyler a position on the crew as an expert creative consultant, as her skill and resourcefulness will allow us to accurately represent these scenes which are so criminally underused in cinema. Thank you and may the force be with you!"


The victims and their families have reacted angrily to the announcement and plan to protest Ms Tyler's bail hearing. LucasFilm as offered to pay reparations for any distress or injuries sustained but Daisy Ridley reportedly walked out of filming Episode X when the news broke. E! Weekly will of course keep you updated on the progress of this bizarre Hollywood story.



Turn to pages 2,3 and 4 to get the gossip on the new upcoming series and film trilogy.

People either commenting this is not a movie or this stuff usually only happens in movies… a STORMTROOPER being mugged… The meta comment is strong in that one!

I said it before, I said it again, cosplays are a great way to bring diversity – plus this made me realize just how limitless the Star Wars universe is in terms of “stealable” outfits. Even stormtroopers appears to have an infinity of variations!

A great story. The fact it gives so much time and exposure to one victim of a uniform theft really sets it apart and gives it its own flavor. Leanne’s parts were clearly my favorites. From her squirming in her bonds to actually freeing herself to her being mocked due to her underwear to her jumping on the set to confront her impostor. The victim coming back to confront her impostor – when she’s not a uniform thief herself that is – is actually quite the rarity, and felt like a breath of fresh air.

(Bethany is a close second though.)

Those two guards were also quite funny to watch – it’s pretty clear they don’t care much about Star Wars, they’re only doing their job to watch a building, and they’re roped into crazy shenanigans involving scantily-clad (and naked) girls and weird-sounding sci-fi names. At least they get to ogle at pretty scantily-clad girls... and get berated for it. True anime protagonists! They’re practically begging for their own spin-off!

Though Adrienne is a good character too. Quite an excellent “joke” protagonist – the perfect main character for a humorous story. Still realistic enough to be a plausible ‘loony fan’, and her being actually concerned she didn’t kill the other girls and even a bit apologetic (and appreciative) towards her fellow fans gives her some sympathy. At the same time there is something a bit parodic with her. Her odyssey is fun – with her mugging more and more people while those poor guards are struggling to catch up with her – in every meaning of the word.

I know the fact the guards find/rescue the girls almost immediately after they’re mugged is a joke, but at the same time given how crowded those events are, this must actually be one of the most realistic USB stories ever! :lol:

(I think there may be a typo or missed word? The story says Bethany’s mouth is taped but she is bound with toilet paper. Isn’t it the other way around? The limbs are taped and she’s gagged with toilet paper (and tape)?)

I’ll admit I felt a bit mitigated about the addition of Chloe Tanaka as guest star. On the one hand, there is this inherently ironic (ironically funny?) situation of a badass assassin chick who’s in the wrong place at the wrong time and actually gets bested by some loony fan. On the other hand, this specific story’s tone leans clearly on the light-hearted side – almost meta-parodic at some point – so having Chloe abruptly show up, privately thinking to herself how much she enjoys killing and wishes she could force-crush throats, only to return to the zaniness right afterwards felt a bit like a brusque tonal shift. A minor detail, but if I had one criticism it would be that.

The ending made me realize we don’t have many stories in which the USB protagonist actually loses. (Well, ‘loses’ – given the epilogue maybe Adrienne will see it as a win.) But it fits the general tone of the story, and the fact Adrienne is a bit of a gag character. That epilogue was the icing on the cake. Oh, we can only dream one day some executive will see the light...

Hi Rufus

Glad you enjoyed the story, I must admit those comments by different members of the cast referencing that USB only happens in movies ( which we know is completely untrue ;) ) was a sudden inspiration of when while I was writing the story and I'am glad it's been well recieved. :D


No argument here, as a crazy ( not as crazy as Adrienne mind you :lol: ) Star Wars fan I heartedly agree. I think it's because of the nine movies and countless series that have followed is what makes Star Wars so versatile when it comes to highly stealable uniforms from very pretty girls. Whether it's the Empire, First Order, Rebel Alliance or the resistance there's just so many for a fertile imagination to chose from.


Thanks, I wanted to write something a little different from my usual works by adding more discovery/aftermath scenes and really go to town on the victims. I'am glad you enjoyed Leanne, her scenes and eventual confrontation with her imposter where an absolute joy to write, and make me chuckle whenever I read them back. Indeed, it's not a variation commonly seen in many USB scenes for a victim to confront the thief, whether in mainstream or in literature. So I thought it high time to redress that imbalance and I'am pleased it's been warmly recieved.

(Yeah, I don't know which was more titillating; seeing Leanne in her imperial knickers or Bethany in her Grogou panties. It's was so difficult to chose, but the hot brunette wins every time. :lol: )


I enjoyed writing Harrison and Billy Dee, particularly enjoying the irony that while they are names after two iconic actors of the series, they are beefcakes who really don't like nerds or Star Wars. Just to ordinary dudes thrust into the crazy world of USB and loving every minute of it, despite being two steps behind of Adrienne, at least they got to ogle and save pretty damsels in distress. Which would be any man's dream. And who knows, perhaps they will end up at a Star Trek event and deal with an equally nutty fan there, I'am not ruling anything out.


Indeed, it was my intention to make Adrienne a sympathetic, if a little bit loopy. Someone that they we can all relate to whether we are Star Wars fans or not, we understand the lengths that some people may go to see their heroes. Not only did I want to highlight Adrienne's newness to the whole USB thing by making her an amateur but her innocence as well. It was clear that she didn't want to harm or kill her fellow fans but did what she had to do and still had her humanity intact to check their pulses, which is another rare detail you don't see in non-lethal USB either. Still, I'am glad you liked her. It was a pleasure for me to write her journey and daresay I had a tremendous amount of fun.


Thank you very much, rufus for the high praise! It's much appreciated. That was my intention to not only have the discovery scenes as a little dig to the guards being Johnny on the spot but to make the story as realistic as possible. Since this is a crowded place and not much room store tied up naked girls. :lol:


( Actually I just checked that over and I think you might have Bethany mixed up with Michelle. Adrienne got the duct tape from the broom cupboard and used it to bind both Chloe and Michelle with it. Bethany was only tied up in toilet paper. I hope that helps to make things clearer. Sorry if there was any confusion.)


With Chloe's guest appearance, I wanted to highlight just how evil and unsympathetic she is so her, a badass assassin getting taken down was meant to be both cathartic and irony at the same time. To highlight the humour at such a tough chick getting her arse handed to her by a crazy fan. Perhaps I should have made Chloe a little less menacing, but then I would have I wasn't doing her justice. Still, I appreciate the criticism and I will take it on board.


If only we could dream that some studio executive will see the potential in USB and it can finally be taken series, but for now we have to make to with the writers and the artists of our little community. ;) Yeah, I feel that stories were the protagonists loses ( Well like you said, with the epilogue, Adrienne will see it as a win-win, since she's will be living the dream) are a welcome change of pace to write. For the epilogue, I have to thank a good friend on discord for the inspiration. It was his suggestion to have the silver lining and with whom I worked so closely on this concept.

I'm more partial towards redheads, personally, but I won't discriminate. All cute girls are welcome in USB stories. And also all plain ones. All girls are welcome in USB stories! :lol:
It was clear that she didn't want to harm or kill her fellow fans but did what she had to do and still had her humanity intact to check their pulses, which is another rare detail you don't see in non-lethal USB either.
I remember it was a staple of trackman's Clone Saga, to showcase the redemption of Angel. From a writer's perspective, my guess is it's for pacing reasons and to avoid repetition and redudance. After all, there are only so many ways to describe a woman checking an other woman's pulse.

Call it willing suspension of disbelief. It's a bit like chloroform and hitting someone on the head or the neck to knock them out. In fiction, chloroform is a foolproof harmless way to put someone to sleep, and you won't get anything worst than a migraine after a non-lethal hit. But in real life, chloroform is actually a lot more dangerous, and if someone stays unconscious more than few seconds after a blow to the head, then it's the sign they probably suffered brain damage. However, we're all so used to these tropes we never question them. And it's easy to see why. Those tropes are great writing tools.

But isn't toilet paper too frail to restrain someone?

Quite often small details make all the difference. My guess is that just removing her inner-thoughts (fantasies?) about how she loves killing people and just keeping her comment after she's rescued that she'd kill the one who stole her would make the tonal change lesss palpable. I think what makes this detail so noticeable in spite of its short length is the back-and-forth. There is this "in-between", a bit like the uncanny valley in visual media. We get a sudden dark turn but the story then back-pedals too quickly instead of keeping the new mood.

I remember for instance the mood whiplash of In the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time: The story begins non-lethal and quite light-hearted - then there is the reveal Lepettilier had been murdered and Kaitlyn had mugged the assassin, but the rest of the story actually keeps this new darker mood until the end.

Now you're talking, I happen to be partial to cute redheads myself, ;) . And I don't discriminate either, plain girls can be cute as well ( like a certain match girl for instance, ;) ) but I generally prefer cute girls. For obvious reasons. :lol:


Yeah, I only featured it twice in Adrienne's case in order to keep the pace and avoid repetition. Since the reader will probably just picture her checking on Chloe and Michelle automatically out of habit.


That's the thing with real life, it can all bring us back down to earth with a cruel bump knowing these facts. Like when I used Laudanum in Red Rock, I was aware of the drugs reputation but in the realm of stories it was just a powerful sedative. As writers we don't question a blow to someone's head or the use of Chloroform since if we did than we wouldn't be able to write and do what comes naturally to us; to bend the truth a little.


That's was kind of the point. You're right toilet paper is too weak to bind a girl with but Adrienne is an amateur, and she doesn't know that. After all, she's new to this whole USB thing and isn't an expert like say Chloe is. But her using the duct tape later on, highlights her growing confidence with the art of disguising.


Yeah, I probably dived two quickly into making the mood dark with Chloe's scene them backpedalled just as quickly. I can't change it now, since what is written is written but I will keep in mind about what you said about tonal shifting in my upcoming works. It's similar to what we've been discussing in our PM's.


Thank you. I enjoyed writing In the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time. I felt that I did a good job in starting that story with a light hearted slant but with my surprise twist at the end with Lepettilier's murder ended the story on a much darker note and I stuck with it in the epilogues. I perhaps could have done a similar thing here but somehow it didn't feel right to go dark with this particular story.

Sorry, I think I'm probably nitpicking a bit on that one :P , but then wouldn't Bethany have broken free by herself without needing to be rescued by the guards? I see the point of showing Adrienne is new at this, and the narrative progression of her character, but someone (even someone who never showed any interest in bondage or USB and the likes) thinking toilet paper can actually restrain a person seems a bit far-fetched... It is, after all, an everyday appliance. I don't think you can even knot toilet paper without tearing it... Especially the cheap ones in public buildings... Personally, I think it'd be more realistic if she grabbed the duct tape at that moment.

Then again, it's only a detail, it doesn't change anything to the general quality of the story, but you could say it really caught my eye. :P

I indeed much prefer that this story remained light-hearted - the beginning was too humorous for a dark outcome to be satisfying, so the ending you proposed was perfect. In The Wrong Place at the Wrong Time, the first part wasn't as zany and humorous as here, so the mood whiplash was a surprise and a twist, but not one that was detrimental to the story.

It's not a problem, I don't mind a little nitpicking now and again. :P I think we can apply that willing suspension of disbelief in this context, we all now that toilet papers utility as a bondage tool would be far fetched but I used a little writers discretion and made it a convenient writers tool. In my defence, Bethany was discovered pretty quickly by our plucky guards and didn't have the chance to break out herself. Had the intrepid twosome not been there, then Bethany probably would have broken free and alerted security anyway.

That's good to hear. After all it's not everyday a couple of guys discover a scantily clad girl bound up with toilet paper. :P So I can see how it caught your attention.


Thank you, you say that it was a spot of darkness in a lighthearted story. And I'am glad to hear that you found the ending perfect, which nullified the impact of Chloe's appearance. Indeed, that was exactly the kind of time I wished to set for In the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time. It wasn't zany but not exactly dark either, so when I deployed the twist it only enhanced the ending of the story. Which I'am quite proud of, myself.

My guess is Bethany is ALSO new at this whole "USB business". Nobody told her she was supposed to struggle! :lol: Or alternately, she's secretly an avid reader of USB tales, so she assumes she was assaulted by a USB pro and therefore didn't attempt to struggle because in the stories the extra characters don't stand a chance of freeing themselves and have to wait to be rescued - hence why she only "MMMMFFFF"-ed for help! :lol:

Now, wasn't planning to dwell on that once more, but I had to play this joke to the end. In fact, I wrote to bounce back on an other comment you made - the idea of a sequel featuring a Star Trek convention. That would be quite the delightful idea for a sequel gag story.

Like, after being given probation thanks to Lucasfilm, Adrienne doesn't exactly learn her lesson and ends up infiltrating a Star Trek event. This could be a way to make jokes on the long-standing rivalry between Star Wars and Star Trek fandoms. The story would remain as light-hearted as this one (non-lethal, no underwear steal, not too much nudity).
The joke could work either way: Either Adrienne is actually also a secret fan of Star Trek, and wants to meet the executives to make a passionate plea about how the two franchises should bury the hatchet and work on a giant crossover, only for things to spiral out of control in true USB fashion. Or she tries to sabotage the event, but to keep in with her nice (or at least not-so-mean) if a bit loony personality, it would be by doing something benign like putting laxatives in the main guests' drinks to ruin their conference or something like that.

It pains me as a Star Wars fan, but when it comes to mainstream USB scenes, Star Trek has the superior one... Just compare that missed opportunity with the Doctor Aphra comicbook... (Yes, that scene frustrates me so much, I keep featuring that cute blond girl in my stories. But I digress.) As I said, compare that missed opportunity with the Doctor Aphra comicbook...

(On a side note, those blue-skinned alien babes are stunners. Wish the focus of the aftermath was on them, but I won't complain. At least we get a glimpse of them tied up and unconscious!)

Nobody told her she was supposed to struggle! :lol: Or alternately, she's secretly an avid reader of USB tales, so she assumes she was assaulted by a USB pro and therefore didn't attempt to struggle because in the stories the extra characters don't stand a chance of freeing themselves and have to wait to be rescued - hence why she only "MMMMFFFF"-ed for help! :lol:

Now, wasn't planning to dwell on that once more, but I had to play this joke to the end. In fact, I wrote to bounce back on an other comment you made - the idea of a sequel featuring a Star Trek convention. That would be quite the delightful idea for a sequel gag story.

Like, after being given probation thanks to Lucasfilm, Adrienne doesn't exactly learn her lesson and ends up infiltrating a Star Trek event. This could be a way to make jokes on the long-standing rivalry between Star Wars and Star Trek fandoms. The story would remain as light-hearted as this one (non-lethal, no underwear steal, not too much nudity).

In Bethany’s case, I would say that it's more likely the former. :lol: She represents one of my favourite types of victims, that you may have seen with my discussions with meditions. The cute girl next door type who just living her life, attending the conference but is thrust into the "USB business" the hard way. Not expecting that on that day some crazy fan will knock her out and steal her clothes. So overwhelmed was Bethany that she forgot to struggle and free herself. Or alternatively, Bethany is the submissive type and quite enjoyed being all tied up and stripped which may explain why she didn't call out right away. ;)



Now, I like the sound of writing a Star Trek convention follow-up featuring Adrienne and the poor put upon guards, Harrison and Billy Dee. Of course I would totally keep the zany, light hearted feel, with the non lethal, and not much nudity ( I was even thinking of referencing the fan theory about TOS uniforms having underwear that's part of the uniform, much to Adrienne's surprise and showing just how dedicated cosplayers are.) Now even though I like Star Trek too, I would like to differentiate this concept by having Adrienne do the latter and sabotage the event, because of the fan rivalry. And I think that her spiking the main guests drinks with laxatives like you envisioned suits her loopy but nice personality to the ground. This time of course she's learned her lesson and won't get caught again. Perhaps, another guest victim from my line-up to mirror the Star Wars story as well? I will send you a PM with my thoughts in more detail and you can tell me what you think?


Yeah, when I looked up that Doctor Aphra scene I so wanted to see an aftermath of that cute blonde worker all tied up in the alley, sleeping in her white camisole and bikini cut panties. But alas, they teased us and left us with just that thought in our imaginations. I mean sometimes we like that but we USB guys have needs.... :lol:


I remember we discussed this scene during the review of Ellana's simulation story, and I just love my blue skinned alien chick's ( or perhaps a green mistulan chick too ;) ) But yes, the only criticism I have of that scene is the presence of the male victims and the lack of focus on those cute blue skinned alien girls. But seeing them all trussed up, and probably naked is a plus so I'll take it. :P
