A Candy short drama in V acts

She's not real

Name: She's not real
Genre: Fantasy

A man in a headset browses a menu of dream women, then picks the one who is not listed.

The premise

A newcomer puts on a headset and wakes inside a dream that lists a gallery of fantasies: the strict boss, the friendly neighbor, a pal's mom, a gamer and others. He ignores them all and chooses the woman who is missing from the list. She informs him that the dream answers to her, and that nobody simply walks away.

Best seat for viewers wholike a virtual fantasy game where the most intriguing player refuses to follow the script.

Act IEpisode 1, free with no account

The player tries the headset for the first time and is welcomed by a gallery of options with their names and types. He looks past all of them and picks the one woman who is not listed. She tells him she is not on offer and that this dream is hers to command. He decides he must wake up and get out, and he starts looking for a way back.

Act IIEpisode 2, free with a Candy account

Back in the dream, the player asks where she has gone, and the answer is that she is not available, though someone else is. He is being watched, and she says so. No one gets past the menu, she tells him. He insists these women are not real to him, and she turns that around. She offers one night on her terms and warns him to keep up.
