***The story so far…***
NBPD Officer Holly Stone was under the sway of Detective Banter and the reality altering device he got from an odd scientist in exchange for avoiding arrest. The device appeared permanently keyed to only work on Holly, and Banter experimented with its capabilities by repeatedly changing Holly’s appearance, her attitude, and even managing to make it affect his wife by framing those changes in relation to Holly. Only Detective Banter knew the difference between truth and reality, and he controlled both.
***Part 3: Officer Holly Stone: Traffic Duty***
Holly Stone didn’t see Banter for a couple more days. He was in court testifying and their paths never crossed during shift change. She was settling in better, though still stuck on midnight. The guys still gave her shit, especially at shift change, some of them lingering to literally watch her shower. She had to put up with it. If her soaping her boobs after a shift in front of a handful of guys meant they would actually respond if she found herself in trouble on the job, so be it, a small price to pay. Of course, in those few days, she’d also given two more handjobs—what started as a smartmouthed joke, turned into a promise—everyone got one if they couldn’t keep it together. She wasn’t an idiot. She was keeping track of who she’d done it to, and she also could tell when some of them gave themselves erections just to get her attention. So, she was now halfway through the department roster, and while she should have given Barker his handy just to get him out of the way, in her mind, there was some pride in keeping true to your word.
