    Instead I took a deep breath and forced myself to say, “That’s great. I’d love to.” After all, both Sir and sage knew about computers. They’d be able to help me.
    When I got home, the two of them were in the living room. They both jumped a little and looked at me with identical “surprised innocence” expressions when I walked in. I was immediately suspicious, but too keyed up by my new job duties to spend much time thinking about it. I made a move to remove my clothes, but Sir stopped me.
    “We have other plans tonight,” he said. “But tell us your news before you explode.”
    I wasn’t exactly sure how he knew I had something to say, but Sir always had a way of reading my mind.
    “Guess what I get to do?” I said, pretending to puff up my chest in pride. Their guilty looks changed simultaneously to curiosity. Really, sometimes I would suspect they were actually twins separated at birth if that wouldn’t have made it incredibly disgusting to watch them have sex.
    “What?” sage asked, interested.
    “I get to research products for us to carry in the store.” I couldn’t help feeling a little proud of myself, even though I still wasn’t sure I could handle the assignment.
    Sir’s eyebrows went up. “Really?”
    I wondered if he was considering, like me, whether I would flop at it, and my spirits went down a little. I gave him a helpless-little-girl look through my eyelashes and said, “Sir, can you show me how to do that?”
    sage rolled her eyes a little, but Sir laughed and squeezed my shoulders. “You won’t have any problems with it, but yes, I’ll get you started,” he said. “Now go do whatever you need to do to get ready to go out.”
    I looked between him and sage in surprise, but she gave me an enigmatic smile. “You don’t need to change,” she told me, picking up a bag I hadn’t noticed on the floor and patting it. “I’ve got everything you need.”
    I didn’t think it was a normal dungeon night, but I suspected that was where we were going. We stopped to eat first, and I told them all about the store, Debi and Tina, how I wasn’t sure I was going to get along with them, and the funny things Geri did. I felt a little guilty about it, but I suspected a lot of her quirks were for the purpose of being noticed and talked about, so I thought she probably wouldn’t mind too much.
    I tried all the way to The Keyhole to coax Sir into telling me what was going on, but he shook his head and smiled. When we got to the club, there were only a few cars outside, so it definitely didn’t look like a normal night. sage carried a large bag, which she pushed into my hands as soon as we got in the door.
    “These are for you.”
    Sir nodded when I looked at him, so I took the bag into the bathroom and opened it to find all the puppy gear I’d collected over the last couple of months: ears, tail, knee pads, “paw” gloves, as well as a see-through beige bodysuit that sage must have bought. I put it all on and looked in the mirror appraisingly. It might have been a little vain of me, so I would never have said it in front of sage, but I really looked good in my puppy gear. Not that she had any interest in puppy play, but I knew she was sensitive about being a little heavier than me. I tried not to talk about clothes or sizes or anything like that around her. She was certainly pretty, with her thick dark hair and almost black eyes, and definitely much more intelligent than me. But she seemed to have an inferiority complex about not being tall, blond, and skinny. I know those are supposed to be the perfect traits, but anyone who is tall, blond, and skinny can tell you that’s not the only thing you need to be happy in life. There are thousands of gorgeous blond actresses who have learned that it takes a lot more than that for success. sage had a lot going for her, including looks, but she just didn’t seem to believe me when I tried to tell her that.
    When I came out, I stopped at
