lukecat Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 Jus Tan nervously refreshed his email account on his web browser. This has become his habit every morning right after sipping on piping hot black coffee his mu would make him, ever since he had graduated from university about a month back. Recently, his Facebook feed constantly bombarded him with news stories about how fresh grads in Leo City were unable to secure decent-paying corporate jobs, and that made him question his career aspirations. Never the bright kid in class, he barely made it into the country’s top high school, Rigour Institution, through fluke. But since then, his classmates had superseded him in terms of nabbing prestigious scholarships and moving onto high-paying white-collar roles. The past four years of University were even tougher for Jus, as he spent four years barely passing in the Biotech course at Leo City Technological University (LCTU) while dealing with his personal demons and an awful breakup. It was Wednesday, 26th of March when Jus’ eyes beamed. A new email popped in his inbox, the title read ‘Re: Biotechcorp internship opportunity’. No way, he thought. Biotechcorp is Leo City’s leading firm in biotechnology every biotech graduate wanted to work there. Jus already felt too old for an internship but he knew the only way he could get his foot in the door of Biotechcorp was to apply for an internship. If he could convert the internship into a full-time role, he would become a valuable asset for any biotech company, all eager to learn the secrets behind Biotechcorp and its genius founder, Jonas Li. naked_boi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbm Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 (edited) What's the sci fi part? What about this? Biotechcorp expands it's business and creates a new bio-engineered material like the symbiote in Spiderman series but much smaller and not sentient. It's skin coloured and merges itself with the wearer's dick to make it bigger and harder and last longer. A bio cock sleeve. This product aims to compete with existing drugs on the market sildenafil(viagra) and tadalafil(cialis) to address erectile dysfunction. Biotechcorp needs staff to develop this new product and Jas Tan seems to be a suitable candidate. The company founder, Jonas Li, is directly involved in this product development as it is on the cutting edge of biotechnology.

lukecat Posted January 15 Author Report Share Posted January 15 Jus excitedly clicked to open the email. The writing was terse and to the point, summoning him to Biotechcorp’s Changi Oscillate building for an interview in two weeks’ time. Not much information was given, except he was assigned an ID number 54524. “How impersonal,” Jus muttered to himself. Still, his heart skipped a beat as he had been facing nothing but no-replies ever since he mass applied for jobs upon graduation. Well, certainly Jus could have worked a little harder with his cover letters but there were reasons why he barely scraped past his academic life with borderline passes. He was a smart but lazy student beset with way too many self-doubts. To make matters worse, Jus had a tendency to overanalyse things instead of taking action. Excited by one of his few job-internship replies , Jus decided to treat himself to some fast food breakfast as a means to celebrate. After throwing on a hoodie, jeans and sneakers, Jus exited his apartment and strolled towards the nearby mall with a food court, some local fashion brands and the fast food joint King Burger. It has been awhile since he left his house and the sun felt good on his skin although it was a tad bright. Still, Jus enjoyed ogling at the scantily dressed girls in workout attire and felt a little rush of blood down to his pelvis, a feeling that had eluded him for months. He grinned to himself as the familiar smell of the mall’s stale aircon greeted him as he stepped through its automatic doors. Inspired by the nostalgic feeling, he shot a quick text to his buddy, Bru, informing him about the internship offer. As soon as he sat down with his Ecstatic Meal consisting of soda, fries and a double cheeseburger, Bru replied him, “Eh, THE Biotechcorp?” “Yup.” Jus replied. “Cool, cool! Catch up soon?” “Anytime.” Just as Jus wanted to close his flip phone and chew down into his burger, the screen lit up with a call from an unknown number. Usually, Jus ignored these calls due to most of them being insurance companies looking for new clientele, but something told him to pick this one up. “Hello,” a faint voice spoke. “Hi,” Jus replied, slightly annoyed. “Jus Tan?” “Speaking.” “We received your resume for the research assistant role at Zeologies. Are you still looking for a job?” “Yes,” Jus’ voice immediately perked up. “Yes I am.” The lady at the other end of the line went a pitch higher. “We know this is a little bit of a rush but we would like to meet with you this afternoon, is that okay?” Jus hesitated a little before he replied, “Um, yeah sure.” The conversation ended with Jus taking down vital information of where to report later. The interaction left him feeling a little odd. Now Jus had to make the tough choice of considering a prestigious internship at Biotechcorp or getting some adult money at Zeologies. Anyhow, it seemed like his year had taken a positive turn. Jus quickly finished his meal and hopped over to the QuickCuts barber to trim his overgrown hair to prepare for the interview. He never really had the habit of grooming himself and even let a goatee grow out from his months of indolence. However, he noticed a rather long queue of seven people. What the fuck are people trying to cut their hair on a Wednesday morning, he thought to himself, I will just have to man-bun it. After putting on his nicest shirt and pants, Jus hyped himself up in the mirror, he kept his goatee thinking it made him look like a charismatic hippie inventor as he had imagined how the sort who worked at Zeologies to be. As he left his room, he still felt unworthy but he knew he had to put his best foot forward. Upon reaching the Zeologies headquarters, he was greeted by a familiar voice. It was the lady on the phone and she introduced herself as Phoebe. She only looked slightly older than him and was neatly dressed in what looked like an air stewardess uniform, with a red bow on her neck. Jus was led to an enclosed room that was mostly shrouded in darkness, but a man greeted him and introduced himself as Luc Teo. naked_boi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukecat Posted January 17 Author Report Share Posted January 17 “Thanks for showing up on such short notice,” Luc said as he cleared his throat. He looked about thirty something, a clean-shaven man wearing a lab coat over a pink dress shirt and neatly pressed black pants. Something about Luc’s appearance made Jus intimidated but he managed to squeeze his prepared speech out of his mouth, “I’m Jus Tan, freshly graduated from LTCU and am looking for a career in Biotech. I am well-organised and hardworking.” Jus knew he was lying about his aptitude but he really wanted a job. To his surprise, Luc responded with a cackle and motioned to a nearby chair, “That’s so formal. Have a seat.” The lights switched off and immediately a screen in the distant corner lit up. A film rolled about the history of Zeologies which Jus already knew all about. Yet in his mind, he knew Zeologies was nothing but a copy of Biotechcorp. As the movie came to a close, the lights turned on again and the silence was broken by Luc’s voice. “So are you keen to assist us in our research project?” Jus asked immediately, “Can you tell me more about it?” “Yes certainly,” Luc continued. “You see, it is less about doing the research but more of being the subject of research. But it also means you will be an active member of our faculty and all the perks that come with it.” That’s not what I expected, Jus thought, but he wanted a job desperately. “What is expected of me?” “A lot,” Luc replied with a laugh. “First, I need to run some diagnostics. Please remove your clothes.” “Wait,” Jus protested. “Why do I…” Before Jus could continue, Luc’s warm hands were feeling his neck and shirt, unbuttoning his top button. Jus grabbed Luc’s hand but he knew he was in no shape to fight off someone who looked like he obviously trained in the gym. Before more questions could arise in Jus’ mind Luc stopped and grinned, “We can do this the easy way or the hard way.” Jus almost had tears in his eyes. He kept reminding himself he was at a job interview although it felt like anything but. Fortunately, Luc stopped undressing Jus after his top two buttons. “Sorry I got carried away mister,” Luc apologised while straightening his shirt. “I just feel like underneath your dishevelled appearance, there is a beautiful specimen of a human being. Plus I was really excited to find a research partner.” Somehow, the compliment got under Jus’ skin. What felt like a molestation slowly ebbed into something more professional. Looks like he was just trying to do his job, Jus thought before he spoke, “I just don’t really feel confident about my body.” “That’s okay sir, you are a beautiful man,” Luc replied. “What?” Jus spit out, confused at how this professional setting turned into something so borderline perverse. Luc grinned, but it looked more sincere than creepy. “It’s kind of your fault. For including your photo in your resume. I just thought I had to meet you.” The lean man stroked Jus’ moustache tenderly and continued, “I do wish you were more clean shaven though.” “Err, I- I am straight,” Jus blurted out although slightly enamoured by the compliment. Luc cackled again with his annoying laugh before saying, “That just makes you more hot!” At this point, Jus assumed it wasn’t really a job interview. He was annoyed, disappointed and hurt. He stretched out his hand to pick up his briefcase wanting to leave. He took a few steps towards the door, the sound of his footsteps filled the room. Luc paced away from Jus stroking his chin. As Jus put his hand on the door handle, he blurted out, “So was this never really an interview?” The room went silent for a bit before Luc cleared his throat and spoke up, “Sir, you never gave me a chance to explain myself.” “You made me uncomfortable,” Jus said, almost shouting. Luc shrugged. “If you can’t take a little bit of discomfort, then you can’t work at Zeologies.” The comment struck a chord with Jus. Throughout the past few months, all he did was try to make himself feel as comfortable as possible, and it was miserable. There was no longer the structure of school to get him out of the house or the familiarity of a fixed schedule. He felt listless everyday and lost interest in most things. He let go of the door handle and asked pointedly, “Alright, what do you really need me for?” naked_boi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
