“Are you sure this is gonna work?” Jake asked, looking up from the bed.
“Dude, for the last time, yes!” I said, shaking my head in frustration. “The bed has been modified to even out your pale skin, firm up your muscles, and smooth out your face. Trust me, you’ll look unbelievably sexy.”
“Yeah, alright,” Jake said. “I’m skeptical about anything you helped build, but I suppose if this thing has already modified half the engineering department with no issues, then it really does work as designed.”
I couldn’t help but smile. “That’s the spirit, roomie,” I said, closing the lid on him. “I’ll come check on you in ten minutes, okay?”
Of course, what Jake didn’t know is that his initial skepticism was actually the right reaction, just for all the wrong reasons. The bed was going to work exactly as promised. But inside of the face lamp, I’ve added some hypnotic LED patterns.
Ten minutes later, my sexy new boy toy was completely blank and ready for programming. Best. Roommate. Ever.
