Retro Futurism: Designation Day
Added 2020-07-08 12:01:00 +0000 UTCHello! I hope you're all doing well!
This is a story I've been holding onto for a little while now, but I'm excited to share it with you all. It's a oneshot, to tide everyone over while I finish up our next multi part story, but that doesn't mean it's not important in its own way! This is going to be the first story in a new setting.
Retro Futurism isn't exactly divorced from my other work, mind you. In my mind, it's what the world of my Stepfordization and New Edict stories becomes in the distant future. Inspired primarily by retro futuristic science fiction, like The Jetsons and Fallout, but with lots of lovely kinky material to work with! This particular story is, I think, a perfect introduction to this world, and all the basics of it.
These are some of my inspirations for the bodysuits/rompers seen in this story. I wanted something that was evocative of the 50s space age idea, while also being fairly uniform in nature.
Here are the dress inspirations as well!
And of course, some inspiration for the Retro Futurism world itself!

You've always been practically the best at stepfordification fiction but this is pretty inspired, especially with all the different roles. Seeing bimbos and housewives together in the same world isn't something that happens often lol. I do hope to see what those drones entail in a future story. And bimbos too but that's a personal preference haha. Candi/Chelsea prequel pls ;P But in all seriousness this is pretty great. I will say that I wish we saw more of Marnie as a housewife though. My only issue is that the payoff, (if you will) doesn't have as much punch? as the build up. That's not to say it's bad, it's great and wonderfully done, but my personal critique/feeling is that while both the build up and pay off are fantastic, I do wish for some more of that aftermath. Reap some more of that harvest after the sowing. But again, personal feeling, your work definitely doesn't suffer without it anyway so feel free to disregard. Either way, hope to see more :) And sorry for the essay lol <3
