About this listen

Daedalus Tesla just wants to be left to his scientific research. The problem is, his Ontological Engine can only be powered by human beings in a state of extreme sexual excitement. And once you have one or two of those strapped down in your laboratory, people do start to talk.

To make matters worse, the ontological forces he is studying are strange and unpredictable. And the line between experimenter and experiment may blur quite unexpectedly.

The Ontological Engine is a skewed and sexy steampunk story like nothing you have ever heard before.

It was...something

It was short. The plot is.....barely there, I have no idea what the protagonist was trying to do. It was pretty clearly just a PWP, but the narrative voice was very funny, and I am sure Monsterfuckers would have a ball with this. Hotness....ehhh? *sceptical hand wiggle* I'm sure a lot of people will find this hot in some way or another, but it didn't do it for me. You do you, Geoduck fuckers, you do you. Someone should ABSOLUTELY draw one of his monstrosities, they sound somewhere between hilariously vulgar and adorable. The writing wasn't bad, just a bit pointless. There was no character arc, nor really a story arc.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
