As you reach the deck, you see Alice manning the helm, also essentially nude. A check of her stats shows that she is your shipwright and helmsman, and she's grown to level 3. A check of your own stats show that you've reached level 5.
Speaking to Alice, she asks you where you want to go. She presents you with three options. You can go into port to trade, raid a small village, or rob a merchant ship.
Meanwhile, in the real world
Clara returns to the apartment to find Annika watching over you and the computer display. "She's still in there? Guess that she's enjoying it."
"Oh, she definitely is," Annika replies, indicating a wet spot on your pants. "But I'm getting worried. She's....I think she may be stuck. Or at least has no sense of real time."
"That could be. I'll try sending her a message." Clara starts typing on the computer. "Oh shit."
"What?" Annika asks, clearly concerned. Then she sees the settings screen Clara has pulled up. "What?! She seriously has to win to be able to leave? Why did you even ADD that option!?"
"I'm sorry!" Clara replies, almost as panicked as Annika. "It was an idea I was messing around with recently, I didn't think I'd actually included it in this build.....and because I haven't fully adjusted it yet, I can't just switch the setting off."
"Then what do we do?!"
"To start, let's get her clothes off of her. She'll end up with a nasty rash if she stays in something that wet. And then...at least one of us may need to go in with her."
The girls work together to undress you without removing the neural link from your head. Fortunately, you wore a buttoned blouse, which has become soaked in sweat. "Damn, Ann, I said this before, but you've REALLY got a hot mom, and you're lucky to take after her."
"I know," Annika replies. "I always loved going to the beach or the pool because I knew that I'll probably look like that at her age." After they work your pants off, they both admire your naked body. "I haven't seen her naked since I was still young enough that she'd bathe me. But hey, she walked in on us naked AND having sex, so this is more than fair."
"Right," Clara agrees with a tight smile. Both are still worried about you, and are trying to ease the tension with their light banter. "Ok, you go toss those into the wash for her while I get our stuff set up. And bring some towels," she adds as Annika steps out of the room. "Stick one under her sweet ass for any further messes, and have one for each of us, because we're probably going to need them."
