**Gonuts: The Prologue**

BWHAM! A loud bash sounded through the fully occupied meeting room. For Ashley a bit unexpected, especially from Brad. Brad, the shy guy. The skinny, pale looking brown head with big nerdy glasses normally never expressed himself. But now? What’s happening.. Brad should be part of the IT department, and not the R&D department. It doesn’t fit his appearance she thought to herself, her mind wandering of from the actual meeting, no let’s say clash around the big white meeting table.

It wasn’t a normal meeting and it definitely wasn’t a quiet one. No, the middle-sized company they all worked for, a software company specialized in mobile entertainment needed something new. Their old school flying pig simulator wasn’t hitting high scores anymore. What they needed was very simple: money. They needed more income. Well, needed or wanted are complete different things. The company was insanely rich. It earned a lot of money on its successful hyped game, but it wanted more Ashley thought. She didn’t know the owners, but they sure as hell were greedy. Nobody knew the owners. Nobody cared. Nobody, but one, the VP, saw them once in a while.

We need something fun. We need something tailored to women. Brad said in a loud tone after he bashed his fist on the white table. It was his only option, otherwise all the colleagues would ignore him. He knew he was known as the shy guy. The out of the book IT nerd. He was hoping that the very cute looking intern with her long red curly hair, red eyebrows and a face without makeup but so beautiful to die for would finally notice him. He wanted the attention from all of his colleagues, but he craved the attention from Ashley the most.

He knew all too well that the flying pig thing on phones wasn’t all too catchy for all their female customers. He thoughtfully analysed it’s performance. He had to. He spend nights logging user entries and reading reviews. To get more attention from Ashley, he needed to do something cool. Not boss her around. He needed to come up with a cash register breaking idea. And maybe, with some luck, he would finally get the attention from his colleagues on this table that he deserved. He did deserve to be here didn’t he?! Or why else was he around this table?!

Ashley looked up and saw everyone gaze in almost horror. What the shit was happening here. Brad, that cute IT nerd was starting to stutter. I…I… I have an idea… Just tell it Brad! Ashley thought. She found the silence in the room a bit to uncomfortable. You know that moment when someone is silent in the middle of a conversation a second too long? That kind of uncomfortable.

Well.. Tell it! Emma almost screamed through the room. Yeah, tell it Brad another colleague of him, Winston said. The conversation was about to go totally sideways. He had to act now or he would never have the chance to present his idea.

Well… Well…. Why not make something more female oriented. Let’s face the facts.. Flying Pigs are funny, but not that funny at all.. He paused for a few seconds to see if anyone had any objections so he could stop now. What did he start. What did he do? Nobody said anything. No, they were listening. This didn’t make him feel better though. He was anxious. He looked to the right and there she was. Shining like a sun, Glowing like a star. My god, Ashley was so beautiful. He couldn’t fail in front of all of his most important colleagues. He couldn’t fail in front of her.

I researched what we did already. I searched a lot on the internet. With a lot, I mean a lot. I surfed the internet, I navigated the browser pages. And with that I can now proudly present you my idea. I’ve called it Gonuts. And yeah, the pun is totally intended. And with that Brad gave the signal to get everyone thinking. Gonuts? What could that be Ashley thought. Collecting some nuts? Maybe a kind of nut eating flying squirrel simulator? After all, the company was known for flying animals. If they should or not, that didn’t matter. No that couldn’t be it. Ashley thought as she scrapped her throat. Sorry! I had to! You got my interest and I think you have everyone else’s as well. Tell us Brad, Gonuts? A flying squirrel maybe?

Brad didn’t respond. Her voice vibrated in his ear canals. He loved it. Her voice was that cute. It was like he was melting as an ice cream on the beach under the hot sun. Brad? Did you get that Brad? Ashley said. He got out of his dreamy state. Ye..Yes Ashley. He actually didn’t know what she said. He was to dreamy. However, he thought maybe the answer would present itself if he just continued. So he did.

Well. When you strip everything out the app is very basic. It is a list of tasks. Tasks people can create in the app for points you can buy or earn by completing tasks. Those points can later be used to buy certain cool things, like concert tickets.

But back to the tasks. A task can be done by two types of users. You have a “Receiver”, or a “Kicker”. With the word Kicker he took a sip of his half-filled glass water. He knew this needed some explanation. Please do not be scared for this. It will sound strange, but I am willing to prove the concept. It will work.

The tasks would be about torturing guys private parts, humiliating them or just using them for fun. This sounds a bit strange, but in a “dare you try the app” form, it could work. Couldn’t it Ashley?

Ashley, as student and intern Marketing for the age groups 18 till 24 responded with a nod. Yes. It could work. Everyone loves a dare. Especially males. They will do everything to get things they need. From concert tickets to just a ride to work. They want to show their big balls. Not physically, but being a macho is kind of important. Well, not for all of them, but certainly a big group. Yes Brad, this could work. The last sentence she ended with a small wink she hoped only Brad would notice.

You are SICK! Jonathan screamed. This is not something responsible to do! We cannot and will not do this ever! He almost attacked Brad, at least it looked like this, hinging over the table. Now the meeting turned into a huge catfight.

Hey! You don’t get to decide that alone! Emma said! Besides, we kinda like the idea of it while looking at Lena and Ashley. They both nod. Ashley knew she liked it. She kinda found it strange that Brad brought this up, but it spiked her interest. She made a small mental node, visit Brad later to try some things out.

The meeting was one big mess after that. Until everyone heard a beep. The big screen on the wall turned on and the speakers started crackling. Well I think this idea is kind of cool could be heard with a light male voice. Ashley was wondering, who was that? She never heard that voice? Me too! Let’s do it said a second female voice. With that Jonathan jumped up. And we?! How are we supposed to vote for this?! It hurts US, not the females!

I do not care, was banging through the speakers. Meanwhile Ashley was filling her creative mind up with some ideas to have fun with Brad..
