Yeah? And he tricked you into doing that? Maybe learning from him isn't the best if that's the case? But I understand feeling alone.
[God, he hates this, but he said he'd try to be more open minded.] Is there anyone else here? In Duplicity? Have a similar problem? Gilia or someone? Might have some experience you could learn from?
I've already talked to Diva about it. She commiserated. Then said it sounded like Elias was my eldritch 'father.' Like she's a 'mother' to those she turns. So...
I won't complain if you want to come with me. Just... [A worried expression darkens her features slightly.] I don't know what's going to happen, and I don't want you to react poorly if something bad comes out. Like... I dunno. Shock collars or mind fuckery, I guess. I don't want you to get into trouble, too.
[She moans against his lips, stretching out her body so that he can work on her pants. There's a thought in the back of her mind that maybe she needs to just start wearing more skirts despite the fact she wears plenty. Then again? Having Tim work at this makes her want so much more. A reward, maybe. Sasha breaks the kiss briefly. She grins.]
Well, unless you have some other toys hidden around here? [He's mildly disappointed to have to push off of her, but he knows he'll be back soon enough.] I have something that might work. [Quickly he snatches up his pants and starts to pull his leather belt out of the loops.]
The people she turns? [Ugh. He hates the turn this conversation has taken.] What are they? A werewolf? Vampire? Either way, I guess they would know, but that's really weird to think of the big boss as your daddy.
Just remember, I suppose, no one says you have to listen or like your family.
Whatever happens? [He pauses to take her hand and bring them up to his mouth. Gently placing a kiss on each of her knuckles before he continues.] We'll get through it together.
The gift basket that arrives comes with a note. One that Jon hopes will fool Tim and Sasha into thinking this is just Duplicity nonsense and not Jon trying to step in while they're dealing with the Chevalier's extortion:
Dear TIMOTHY STOKER,
Due to your satisfactory performance at Camp Harmony, you have been randomly selected to receive this GOURMET GIFT BASKET. Thank you for reflecting the appropriate values as a DOMINANT.
Been practicing. [He says with a bit of a chuckle. Pulling her pants down with his hands. He kisses her along her jawline, down her throat, between her breasts, and down her stomach as his hands push her pants down.
As his continue their downward trail he will eventually reach her panties. Here he nips at them with his teeth. Shimming his way down his hands pull on her pants and his teeth help her underwear down at the same time.]
Or you'll have to come to my place. [He nearly bounces as he jumps back into the bed with his belt in hand.] Hold your hands together for me? [He wants her to participate. To make sure she really was okay with this before he moves forward. At any point if she says stop he will immediately do so.]
Jon is in luck. Tim is completely fooled by the ruse as he accept the gift basket. It means he suspects everything to be drugged with aphrodisiacs and is only mildly disappointed when the food turns out to just be food. It is really good food. The chocolates don't last very long.
I might have a collection at my place. [He admits with a sly grin as he slips his looped belt around her wrists.] Now, if this gets to be too much at any point? You say stop and I'll stop and let you go. Alright?
[There's no real shock collars, per se, at Sasha's punishment. She's given a bracelet that does send shocks if she forgets to address a Dominant in proper fashion. Something to the effect of, I'm hungry and I would like to have dinner. If it pleases you, Sir. Or Madam, depending. Fail? There's a shock of a reminder to mind her manners from the bracelet. It's all about as exciting as sitting through a boring lecture, but Sasha recognizes that it could be so much worse. Only three days of irritating.]
She was also born into this. She didn't have a choice like I did.
[Even if he's been told by others it wasn't really a choice... Gertrude had likely been faced with the same at the end and gone a different direction.]
It's nothing you need to solve, Tim. Just something I think about now and again. It would be nice to have someone I trust who gets me more than the rest of you do.
