"Thanks for the night Lynda, I had a great time!"

"So did I! I didn't think opera would be my thing, but it was nice getting to wear this dress outside of work!"

"Half the audience certainly seemed to enjoy the show you put on in it."

"Don't sell yourself short Aurora! You were getting just as many admirers."

"Oh, I know I look good, but it's hard to compete with you."

"Do you want to?"

"Do I want to what?"

"'Compete' with me. It's our third date, and I'd like to invite you back to my place."

"Lynda! Are you asking..?"

"Yes. I know you've thought about it. There's more than just physical lust in your appreciation for my work-of-art body."

"But... what... Can I ask you back to my place?"

"Not since I asked first. Come on Aurora, you knew from date one this is where it was going. Come back with me. Solidify our relationship."

"And myself."

"Sort of? You're more hollowing yourself out."

"... what's it like?"

"I'm amazed it's taken you this long to ask that. It's amazing, I can feel eyes on me, and they feel incredible! I'm sure you noticed, but I froze up during the performance. That was to keep myself from screaming out in pleasure from all the people watching me instead of the stage."

"And what's it like being touched?"

"If I'm frozen? Pure heaven. I exist for dressing time. And even when I'm mobile, sensations are enhanced. Your hand in mine is giving me a good buzz."

"And you don't get bored?"

"Nope, I can people watch, or be watched by people, or let myself drift and have my vibrating stand kick in."

"Vibrating stand?"

"Aurora, let me fill you in on all the juicy details of life as a mannequin..."

....

"We're here Aurora."

"So we are."

"I've shared everything about my life since being changed. And I want to say one more thing before you make your decision: I've enjoyed our dates, I like you, and I can say I'd have dated you even if I wasn't being rented out."

"Awww. That's sweet Lynda. I'm glad I rented you over the other mannequin in the store."

"Other mannequin? Oh! Hellen's just a mannequin, she can't be rented."

"Really? She looks so real!"

"My owner sculpted her himself, he's got skills! She's part of the reason I let him change me."

"Well, between Hellen and you they're hard to deny."

"Are they enough to entice you to come in?"

"Lynda..."

"Aurora. I'm almost out of energy and need to get to my stand. Please. Join me."

"Give me your hand Lynda."

"I hope this isn't a goodbye..."

"Lynda, I want you to feel my soft, warm hand one more time."

"Aurora..?"

"Because soon it will be nothing more than plastic, just like yours."

"AURORA! Ooooh! I'm so happy!"

"Hey, hey, calm down. I can't have you running out of energy before you help me onto a stand."

"Right right. Sorry. Come in! Come in! You're going to look so amazing in plastic."

"I hope so. I'm still a bit apprehensive about thiiiii...:

"Sorry, I really am low on energy. I had to use just the stand-tip. You won't fully transform until our owner properly poses you and installs you on a stand tomorrow, so I'll balance you with your arm around me. My default pose should be fine to hold you up. Goodnight Aurora! We'll have to wait for our fourth date for what we both want to do."
