When her shift was over, Ranma didn't bother to change back into her normal street clothes; her bunny costume was so comfortable now that she just pulled on a long coat to be street-legal and went on her way, wiggling her little cotton tail under the covering and balancing perfectly on her high heels.
It wasn't until she looked into the bathroom mirror at home that she realized she had worn her bunny ears all the time.
Ranma undressed and carefully hung up her lovely costume, before changing back and slipping into his pajama. He dropped off to sleep the second he hit the bed.
While Ranma slept, his boss at the Bunny's Delight prepared the little voodoo doll for the next day's message.
He was rather proud of the idea, really. It combined old-fashioned voodoo magic with modern psychological knowledge, delivering subliminal messages through a magical medium directly to the brain. Exposing the doll to sights or sounds delivered these sensations to the target's mind on a subliminal level, but with a clarity of signal that was unmatched by other methods such as picture-splicing or subsonics.
Over the course of a single evening he had watched Ranko becoming not only used to her work costume but so fond of it that she wore it home. Now it was time for the next phase.
He moved the card with the previous message to the side of the "observation box", where it would remain in the metaphorical peripheral vision of the doll, keeping the message active and reinforced, while another one took the central focus: "I like it when men look at me. It makes me feel sexy."
The poor girl really needed to get over her repressive hangups so she could enjoy the attention of the customers, rather than just enduring it. This was the next step, and if she took to it as well as to the last one, she'd be ready before the week was out.
It was of course inevitable that Ranma would get splashed at some point during the day. It was simply a fact of life, and there was no way around it. The only unexpected thing about it was the way she found herself missing her bunny costume.
She caught herself adopting stances and moves out of her newly-fashioned Bun Fu school - wiggling her derriere more than necessary, as if she had a fluffy tail pinned to it, or walking on the balls of her feet, as if wearing heels. She put it down to her usual preoccupation with perfecting a new move, but she had to admit that it garnered quite a bit of attention from the males - and she found herself enjoying it!
Truth be told, Ranma had always been proud of the obvious beauty of her female form, and the effortless way she could use it to cloud men's judgment (as long as they weren't aware of the curse) gave her a sense of power. Now the stares that her wiggling, jiggling body got were a constant reaffirmation of this secret pride, when only a day before they would have been reminders of her shame at being cursed with such an unmanly form.
Every stare at her tight little butt, every guy who talked to her tits rather than her face, every time she felt a man undressing her with his eyes - it all fueled pride. Yes! She had a hot little body! She was the sexiest girl around, and she damn well knew it! Her nipples hardened at the unaccustomed sexy feeling, which only increased the number of lustful stares.
Man, she really wished she had her bunny costume, right now. That would really get her some attention. She couldn't wait for the evening, when she'd start her shift at the Bunny's Delight. She'd have those guys at the club all wrapped around her finger in no time at all with that hot little number.
The Master of the club watched as Ranma wiggled, jiggled, strutted and pranced between the tables. She was really lapping up all the attention she got. The hard points of her nipples were very visible through the cups of her costume - it was designed that way. There was no question at all, that the latest message had done its job.
The only times when the smile on her face froze a little were when one of the patrons got fresh with his hands and she couldn't evade it. At all other times the smile was definitely genuine. The girl was having a good time, which was always a very big plus. The customers can sense it, and that enhances the mood of the place tremendously.
Miss Ranko was coming along just fine.
