a quick rundown on CUPIDITY

One of the most controversial (yet outwardly benevolent depending on who you ask) corporate interests present on  Mudjang is that of CUPIDITY, a 'business advising' bureau that specializes in what they call 'proactive soulmate hunting.'

They make their money primarily through their Contract Packages, which entail various forms of romantic guidance for the lucky sap with enough money to spend on them. The cheapest is a simple 1 hour session with an Advisor- using various arcane methods not quite known to anybody outside of CUPIDITY, they will tailor advice to each client that allows them to pursue a romantic or social interest with a higher degree of effectiveness. Generally, the advice is mostly benign- though for a premium, CUPIDITY will actively trawl the galactic net for information pertaining to the specific object of your affection.
From there, the contracts get a bit less... ethical?

If you're willing to pay a substantial fee, CUPIDITY's Advisors and Engineers will set to work trying to create the perfect circumstances for a date- while they will not provide a date, they will provide quite genuinely everything else, purpose engineered and scripted to provide an unforgettable experience for both parties. Plenty of perfectly healthy marriages have been kickstarted via a CUPIDITY engineered date.

If you've truly got bottomless pockets, however, you COULD contract CUPIDITY to do something well and truly invasive. Their Soulmate Connection Contract is the kind of expensive that's only available to corporate barons and economic wunderkind alike. Using proprietary information gathering and espionage techniques, CUPIDITY claims they will locate your 'social and biochemical soulmate,' somewhere in the galaxy. From there, a set of CUPIDITY Advisors and Engineers will relentlessly engineer your life for a full year from behind the scenes- every aspect of every moment, down to the way the leaves fall off of trees and even the ambient air temperature, controlled by one of their teams. This control allows them to effortlessly guide you towards your supposed 'soulmate,' and catalyzes meaningful emotional connection in 92 percent of ALL contracts.

What they neglect to mention in most ad copies is that there are roughly 90 'biochemical and social soulmates' for every person in the world. Most customers are unwilling to pry deeply enough to actually discover this fact buried within their contracts.




now you may ask: isnt that mad unethical and creepy?
