Reviews for Four Play

By : Acelordofthemorning

    The story opens with Lucy and Jasmine in a cafe. The two wanted to catch up - or more accurately, Jasmine did - after Paisy became canon and Abbey went MIA. Lucy proceeds to ignore most of what Jasmine is saying for the better part of this intro, preferring to catch the readers up on current affairs, where the characters stand, ensuring the reader knows that all the story's players are legal virgins. Important stuff. Also Lucy did something with Jessica? The details are left to the reader's imagination.

    "The thought of him [Mike] happy with Sandy smoldered within her [Lucy] and she wished every day that it she was with him and not that harlot."

    All goes well until Lucy sees Sandy outside the cafe window, and proceeds to ditch a very confused Jasmine without so much as a word to chase Sandy into the crowd. She catches up to her at a wishing fountain, where she mockingly acknowledges Sandy, only to be met with polite confusion. A plot forms in her mind, and she introduces herself as Sue. Sandy admits that she's going to be meeting Mike at a hotel soon, and just then Jasmine catches up. Lucy whispers to Jasmine, telling her to play along, an act which, in accordance with traditional stageplay asides, Sandy obligingly neither notices nor questions. Lucy introduces Jasmine as Amaya, and the three depart to the hotel Mike is going to be meeting Sandy at.

    "Sandy managed to find the room that possibly had sixty-nine painted on the door...She inserted it [the key] into the lock and twisted, opening the portal and ushering Lucy and Jasmine in with a smile."

    This is where things get interesting, as it becomes clear that the story is a metaphor for the European colonization of the Americas and the following few centuries. The three enter the hotel room, and Lucy, representing England, becomes immediately jealous of the beauty, grace, and...natural assets of Sandy, who represents the Native American people. She begins to form a full plan, and makes a bold-faced lie - that Mike (who represents the "American dream" - more on this later) has made love to her, betraying his promise to be faithful to Sandy, reflecting the falsehoods the European settlers told the Native Americans to make themselves appear more desirable. A despairing Sandy asks how it happened that Mike would make love to "Sue," and Lucy begins to tell her the false story, mimicking the actions of Mike, which are pretty goddamn lewd so I'm not gonna go into that in detail here.

    "Lucy drank in her [Sandy's] tears like the sweetest nectar...Against her better judgment she began to stroke her hand on Sandy's thigh."

    So far we have left Jasmine out of the picture, but this is where she begins to be drawn in. As befits a representation of African slaves, it is hardly even her choice - Lucy (England) seduces her into betraying herself, until it is no longer possible to stop (reflecting the rise of the slave trade in Africa as run in part by Africans attempting to turn a profit or diminish the resources of rivals), and she joins Lucy and Sandy to create a lesbian threesome.

    "She [Jasmine] stared in horror as once again she was thwarted by her own impulses and the sounds of the two white cats making out became all she could hear."

    It is at this point, roughly halfway through the story and similarly close to the American Revolution, that Mike - who you will remember represents the "American dream" - appears, and is understandably shocked to find a lesbian orgy consisting of girls he knows, two of whom he didn't even expect to be present. His characterization is nothing less than spectacular, with the author drawing from many subtle clues and hints to his innermost thoughts and personality traits to deliver such lines as "Okay, okay, did I just walk into you three having lesbian sex?" and "Sandy please, please don’t cry." which both quite clearly scream Michael in a way that only a true reader of Bittersweet Candy Bowl could pull off.

    "There was nothing to say. Mike had just walked into three girls he knew very well performing oral sex upon each other in a triangle formation."

    Upon seeing Mike, Sandy and Jasmine - the two victims in the westward expansion - hide themselves out of fear and shame, while Lucy, the instigator, simply smirks, asking him if he likes what he sees. Sandy begs for forgiveness, crying and insisting she only wanted to share what he had shared with Lucy previously. Mike insists Sandy is the only girl for him, and she demands he prove it, recalling the final, fruitless attempts by the Native Americans to push the European settlers out of their lands before they were (in this case, literally) fucked by the American dream.

    "Sandy gasped at finally seeing her boyfriend's cock and her body wriggled in anticipation and fear of what she was about to share with him [Mike]."

    At this point, African slaves are being imported in larger numbers than before as the colonies take off, reflected by Lucy pushing Jasmine to timidly ask if she can join in, a proposal which Mike accepts at the urging of Sandy. An irritated Lucy watches from the sidelines, wishing she were in the middle of the action - this is the point at which the American Revolution begins, and the colonies have poor relations with England. But even as she loses her hold on Mike, she begins to plan for the future, bolstering relations with the Jasmine (the Africans), who Mike is eating out, with a passionate make out session.

    "With the steel in his [Mike's] heart he thrust with his cock and tongue, both girls quivering in joy."

    Although Lucy desperately wants to be the center of Mike's attention, she realizes now is not yet the time, and instead refocuses his attentions on Jasmine and Sandy, trying to bide time so that she can make her impact later, reflecting England attempting to trivialize the American Revolution by creating alliances with the Native Americans to cover the gaps left by their troop deployments to France.

    "Feeling left out, the other two girls moved in like flies on a sensual pile of manure."

    Finally, it's Lucy's turn - England wants its colonies back. She finally engages with Mike in a direct fashion, displaying a surprising knowledge of sexual techniques not present in the other two participants. This time it's different - where the previous engagements were gentle, loving even, this one is violent, a shocking display of animal instinct, reflecting the raw emotion present in the American Revolution, as loyalist neighbors often took up arms against their revolutionary friends.

    "Mike began to pull out, looking concerned, but she [Lucy] grabbed his hand, and looked at him sternly through tear stricken eyes. "Don't you...dare... jerkface." "

    After the wild night is over, the three women split apart from each other, tied together by the pain and love they've endured at the hands of Mike, Lucy and Jasmine leaving the two lovers alone in their hotel room, as they had initially planned. Sandy discusses how things have changed and how she is surprised to find herself not displeased, and asks that Mike stay close to the other two, as she will always love him but won't always be there for him - a very true statement, considering the eventual fate of the Native American tribes.

    "Maybe it was for the best that it happened like this....I didn't even mind as much seeing you have sex with the other two, although I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little jealous..."

    Following through with his promise to Sandy, Mike goes to meet Jasmine at her batting cage practice (which, as BCB fans know, is the only thing Jasmine ever does when she's not at school). Jasmine is initially terrified, unsure how to deal with Mike after their relations together, but he reassures her that he is going to be there for her, and that Sandy has told him to make sure not to neglect her. The scene closes with the two making love, hinting at the continuing issue of slavery in America even after becoming its own nation.

    "Looking up to him, she couldn't help but remark at how green his eyes were in the night."

    The only loose end left is Lucy, who we meet mid-conversation with Mike over the phone. The pair are in much higher spirits, until the topic of their continued relationship comes up. Mike goes silent, before explaining what he'd previously told Jasmine, that Sandy had urged him to reach out to the two of them, offering to sate their desires. Lucy gives it a length of thought, enough to make Mike worried, before declining him; she's already had her chance, and it's Sandy's turn. Besides, she's fucking preggo with his baby and that's all she wants because apparently Lucy is a BABY CRAZY SEDUCTRESS WHO WANTS TO TRAP MIKE'S KID IN A BROKEN FUCKING HOME, uh, this reflects the gradual positive shift in relations between America and England.

    "A dual set of laughter echoed at the utterance of these words; the absurd ending of the story bringing the dialogue to its hilarious conclusion. Thus both participants were set into a jubilation that furthered the light-hearted nature of the scene. In other words, they were having a fun conversation."

    In conclusion, while I disagreed with the interpretations of the characters, I felt that it was a very well set up to be construed as a metaphor.
