Following Protocol

Description

Much of MirageCorp's production facilities are automated or controlled by simulated intelligence. Safety protocols and information-gathering is in abundance, always looking for more ways to eke out extra data on products, their crafting, and the facilitation of products to their destination. Microfactories on three continents can churn out custom-designed TapeBuddy products, often built with minor adjustments to comply with local law, or with the wishes of purchasers. For example, new features can be added on the fly, and production can be changed with only a few minutes of downtime. When a client requests a series of TapeBuddy drones that emit aphrodisiac-laden gas, or when an order comes in for DoubleWide (tm) shrink-wrapping tape, the changes can be made in days rather than months of tooling.

Still, products can be created in error. Small products are recycled, donated, or sold as defective for parts. 
Larger products are different.

When an item of a certain mass is created without permission, alerts go out. Security is informed. Has someone attempted to use a device for recreational purposes? Has an office romance gone wrong, resulting in someone being processed into a SureMaid (tm) branded neoprene mermaid? Or has there been a security breach, with someone attempting to escape with trade secrets? Has some young student decided to sneak into the MirageCorp building on a dare, and ended up encased as a living, latex-coated chair? 

Security does not always have responses in place to deal with such intrusions. Low-ranking security members, are, after all, drones - entities that blur the line between mindful and mindless, but always broadcast their appearance with squeaky motion and the click of heels and boots. 

If a product is created, but there is no sign of intrusion and no sign of an employee, then directions are not always clear. If someone has used the fabrication technology to create equipment, it may have been a mistake. If it has been used to create a custom item - such as a hood for one's own home use, then it may be an example of employee malfeasance (and will be dealt with strictly!) 

Or, if the machinery is used to create something even larger... the rules are unclear.

The individual in question appeared at the end of the 'short' assembly line, having taken two trips - through the fabricator and into the dressing loom. The loom, as is standard practice, had the individual triple-encased and processed in under ten minutes.

The tight red wrapping had her compacted, compressed, and restrained, with the tape practically gluing together within a few minutes of its application. Careful design and data-gathering allowed the tape mummification to reach nearly every nook and cranny - encasing every curve in a snug layer, and making absolute certain that although stretchy, the tape would be unbreakable.

The second two layers consisted of semi-shrinking smart rubber; one that went to the unit's neck and another that coated her entirely. Obviously, the result is very, very tight! Even with the subject's constant squirming and worming, the stretchy nature keeps her limbs from getting any work done; escape is possible, but not without lots of help. If anything, it just encourages more wiggling and more resistance.

The second layer also coated her face. Air-permeable but self-sealing, the wrap has shrunk to encase her face and hair as well. 

The unit's features
should be visible through the rubber encasement. Capable of some movement but limited, her frozen expression serves as a reminder of her past. Facial recognition has been unable to detect her identity, but the thick coating and what appears to be a layer of tape over her lips makes it somewhat difficult to confirm.

As such, the product - without a claimant, owner, and with no obvious order for it - has been relegated to auction. The price itself began at the absolute minimum - $1USD - and was open to the public. Marketing, somewhat confused, sought to maximize the profit from this unknown reject.

Branding has made this piece a hot commodity. Marketed as a 'pillow,' this unit can be touched, tormented, teased, and tested. In fact, the well-preserved and packaged unit is even displayed on a twin-size bed, to help compare for optimal usage. 

This particular unit is advertised as 'heated' as well as reactive; pinching its nose results in extra squirming, vigorous groping and physical contact results in a pleasant, melodic series of moans; and other reactions are available with proper exploration. Although an anonymous mistake, MCI employees are doing their best to follow the instructions of the absent CEO and waste nothing. In fact, with bidding starting soon, marketers are already preparing to offer a thorough demonstration and public testing of this one-of-a-kind 'misprint'.

Commission drawn by Dthorin and it turned out great!

In this piece, Phantom is the victim of a power struggle at the top of her company. When the dangerous Aria-Warden betrays her, she finds herself disappearing into her own machines! With no obvious rules for what to do with abandoned rubberdolls, she will be auctioned off. How could she possibly escape this mess?

...especially when Rossem-Klyn is currently the high bidder...
