Had to school a fella on Twitter who thought it should be OBVIOUS TO ALL that cuddling and other forms of foreplay/aftercare are OFF LIMITS if you're setting up a BDSM playdate. I said there's no reason that an encounter has to be either/or, and that I encourage anybody who wants both to hook up with me.

He then replied that he does enjoy both cuddling and BDSM in one session but that's what his HUSBAND is for.

Ah, so this is Couples Privilege, got it. He didn't know what I meant by that.  So:

Couples privilege -- when a non-monogamous couple decides together to have non-negotiable rules about their sexual/romantic encounters with other people, specifically with a hierarchical purpose to privilege the primacy of the couple's relationship. Such as -- no kissing others.

This guy thought everybody should obviously play by the same rules that he does -- snuggling is reserved for the HUSBAND.  But not everybody plays that way.  Lots of people appreciate foreplay and aftercare with BDSM.  Many of us think that aftercare should always be an option upon request, for the mental health of the participants.  BDSM can bring up some difficult emotions, even if you're doing it to have fun.  I remember at least one time when I burst into tears while Sir K was spanking me.  Other times when I became quite angry.

Part of ethical nonmonogamy, especially when BDSM is on the table, is having some thought about the emotional well being of the other sentient humans you're playing with.  To insist that nobody have any difficult emotions, that this MUST BE FUN ONLY, that nobody should require foreplay or aftercare, is kind of naive.

yeah, we've got child rape equivalent in both,

now I don't feel so bad about the scene I wrote when Alex punished Matt to the full extent of their rule set, because what I wrote about was consensual,

Something I Tweeted to a sub who had been ordered to drink six glasses of water in a row:

I hate to be the killjoy, but there's a condition called hyponatremia in which drinking too much water can be dangerous or even deadly. As a Sir I would never order my sub to drink more water than he needs for normal bodily functions. Look it up, be careful.

September 4, 2059

Tate was on his way back from his first block of four 12-hour shifts working for Marco, helping Alessio to develop into his own adolescence as an organic personality in a cloned adult body.

He'd heard, of course, that android Luke had been summarily recalled by Marco's company, along with all the other sex androids of that experimental model.  Again, NOTHING EVER GOES AS TATE PLANS.  So Matt didn't spend four days and three nights at the mercy of Sir Luke as Tate had expected.  Yeah, beta testing.

On his way home he called Matt, he'd just been too busy and too tired to speak with Matt earlier in the week, although they'd texted a few times each day.  He's still too tired, but the car ride will take a while, may as well catch up with his boyfriend.  Matt sounded sad about Luke's recall, and about missing Tate.  Matt said tomorrow, after Tate was well rested, and after breakfast, he'd like to have a relationship status chat, because so much had happened recently.  Tate agreed, that would be a good idea.

Tate thought about how taking care of a brain-wiped adult body was much more physically demanding than taking care of a baby.  Babies don't weigh 180 pounds.  When babies make a mess of their breakfast, there's not as much breakfast to make a mess of, and babies cannot throw it as far.  Tate heard from others on the team how the worst will be when Alessio has learned to walk, they'll have to keep him securely locked within a special safety wing of the complex for a while.  But it was just the first week, Alessio was the equivalent of a one-month-old baby.  He'd develop at roughly 4x the rate of a gestational baby, although various development stages would occur either faster or slower than this 4x rate.

OK, Tate's going to nap for the rest of the car ride.  See you soon.

-----

This is what seat belts are for, as Tate's car wakes him with a hard slam on its brakes and a loud thump.  He hears the car automatically calling 911, and the sound of air bags deflating, having completed their job.  WTF.

He's fine, he thinks.  He's all in one piece.  Not bleeding as far as he can tell.  The car is warning him not to exit the vehicle, as there is high-speed traffic nearby, "Your safest place is to remain seated with your seat belts fastened."

But where's his phone?  Not sitting next to him anymore.  Ugh.  He can use the car's phone to call Matt, which he does.

Matt goes into panic mode, having barely lived through a car accident of his own, and says he and Alex are on their way in another car to pick him up, says the local rescue team should get there first.

"I'm fine," Tate assured him. "I might have bruises from where the seat belts grabbed me, but I'm fine."

-----

The car had hit a deer.  On their way back, Tate snuggled into Matt's side and they held hands.

Matt was more upset than Tate was, Tate was ready to resume his nap.  Tate felt like the car's safety systems had worked, he's OK, he's even more exhausted now.  But Matt's been triggered.

Matt suggested, "We should have your memories backed up every three months, just in case."

Tate thought he was too sleepy to make this decision, and replied, "Not everybody is as excited to keep all their memories as you are."  But then he thought of Ma, and yeah, maybe he should sign up for memory backups, if Matt is paying the bill.  Ma would be devastated if he didn't remember her anymore.  But he'd heard the backup process takes all day when you don't have brain implants.

-----

A quick nonsexual shower together at the house, where Tate got to feel Matt's bruised butt, a protein shake bedtime snack, then Tate wanted snuggles instead of foot rubs, so he fell asleep spooning with Matt while Matt continued to fume about what he considered "a close call, you could've died".  But he can't forbid Tate from ever leaving the house.  He wishes Tate had followed through with getting his vision fixed, the implants would have made it easier to backup his memories regularly.

Cars became steadily safer as AIs took over the driving task -- safer than human drivers ever were.  But shit still happens.  Human drivers are still legal, though most accidents involve human drivers.  And even an AI driver cannot avoid every obstacle while traveling at highway speeds.

A couple days ago, Matt had asked Alex whether they could back up Luke's memories before the company team showed up to retrieve him.  He'd worried that the connection he'd made with Luke would be completely erased by the recall fix, or that they'd send back a different unit.

"They already do continuous remote backups," Alex told him.

"But can't we do our own?  They might wipe him!"

"They'll probably just upgrade his software, while leaving his save files alone.  It depends on what the fix is." Alex had said while unlocking Matt's ankles from the sling.  "If they have to change how the save files are organized to fix the problem, then making our own backup won't help."

Matt had worried, already, about losing Luke, when Luke probably isn't even sentient, and now he was triggered about losing Tate.  Fucking cars!

Tate had intuited that Matt needed somebody who was around all the time, until he truly recovered from the trauma of that botched storage tank back in June, and getting Luke was a good idea for this purpose, but now we know Luke may not be around all the time either.

Yeah, we need a dog, Matt thought.  Well, I need a dog.  But with Tate they'd qualify for a trained service dog.  Maybe two dogs, a service dog and a puppy.  He thought about his conversation with Luke, when he'd sorta called Tate a 'sex puppy'.  Of course he won't have sex with the dogs!  But maybe Matt does need the combination of a sex android and a puppy.  A larger family.

Is this what he wants now, needs now, a family?  He's got Alex, his "Chief of Security", ex(?) boyfriend, and sort of all-around caretaker.  He's got Tate, his default bed partner, boyfriend, and Sir.  He'll have Alex or a similar replacement unit.  Maybe when Talon gets out of prison he can live here.  Matt thinks of Talon as a "he" even though Tate thinks of Talon as "she".  How confusing for a kid when his mother switches genders on him.  Anyway.  Today's kids probably aren't confused by gender fluidity.  They've grown up with it: take a pill and in the morning you've got breasts.  Or a cock.  Or both.  Take a different pill next week and switch back, like Alex does a few times per year.

But Matt's got this old-fashioned attachment to masculinity.  We'll have to get female dogs, to diversity this place.  With frankly feminine names.

He wants a family.

And then he realizes he has a family.  Heh, as Luke said, when you're privileged you just change your framework of description to match your desires.  Matt whispers to himself, not quite out loud, "Tate's not my sex puppy.  Maybe he's not my family either.  But I want a family.  I think tomorrow, I'll ask him ... if he'll marry me."  And then he holds Tate like he'll never let him go, as Tate snores softly into his pillow.

-----

And that's the end of this story cycle, I'm done with NaNoWriMo.  Happy Thanksgiving to all my US peeps!

Matt and Luke decided together that breakfast would only get in the way of their fisting scene, but Matt wanted a cup of coffee and some water before showering and cleaning out.  Down in the dungeon, Luke prepared -- setting up the sling, gathering poppers, Z-lube, towels.

Matt was looking forward to this!  Instead of random bodily abuse, something he wanted for himself.  Sir Luke would be his "service top" for this session.  Yay!

But when Matt arrived in the dungeon he was careful to wait respectfully with his eyes looking down until Luke addressed him and ordered him into the sling.  Luke handed him a bottle of poppers to self-administer, and then blindfolded him.  Finally, Luke locked his ankles into the sling for some bondage flavor.

"Boy, I'm not gagging you because this is my first time fisting you and we'll need to communicate.  Fisting is a two-way street, as I'm sure you know.  The object is to give you pleasure and release, not the "fist" per se.  You want me to go slower, or faster, you say so.  Push harder, or pull out, you say so.  Maybe next time I will have learned enough to give you a better ride without as much talk.  But this time -- you will talk."

"Yes, Sir, thank you, Sir."  Matt was impressed, again, with the quality of Luke's programming and configuration, as well as the amazing motor skills and human likeness.

As promised, Luke took his time, giving Matt what he needed.  Starting out with teasing the prostate with one finger, stretching the hole with two fingers, plenty of lube, taking some breaks, moving on to three fingers.  Matt hadn't been fisted in a while, so three fingers was plenty for several minutes -- he was loving it -- Cloud Three, er Nine -- heh.

Matt started using the poppers as Luke moved on to four fingers, this was some serious stretching, but the poppers helped Matt to relax and to dig in -- Matt trying to push his butt forward -- getting hungry for the fist.

But Luke kept with the four fingers for several minutes, knowing not to rush something as intimate as fisting.

As Matt started to beg, "Please, Sir, fist me, fist me!  I want your fist so badly!  I need this!"

"OK, boy, popper up, here comes the fist!"

It felt so damn good!  Matt was groaning and seeing stars and feeling his body fall away, damn damn damn, but then he suddenly needed the darn thing out again, heh, "OK, OK, please pull out, please pull out Sir, ahhhhhhhhh."

"Let me know when you're ready to go again, boy."

"Yes, Sir, so damn good, you're awesome," and Matt remembered how he always got a crush on the guys who fisted him, who made him feel this good via his hole -- really nothing like it -- deep imprinting --

But then, even from his happy haze, Matt detected something was wrong.  And then it became obvious.  Luke stood up, and made what sounded like a standard announcement, "Attention: Model recall is now in effect.  Model recall is now in effect.  Prepare for shutdown in 15 seconds.  Repeat ..."

"What the hell; Alex!" Matt yelled.

"I'm here, Matt, yeah ... we're getting a text message that the beta test models are being recalled immediately due to a 'logic error' ... I'll come downstairs to help you get down and clean up ... looks like we'll be without Luke for a period of time."

"Well, damn, I was just starting to have fun!"

September 2. 2059

After a quiet night, Matt woke next to Sir Luke in the master bed for the first time.  Luke appeared to "sleep" or to feign sleep or to make human-like sleepish sounds and movements, though he didn't snore (yay!).

Matt undid the restraints around his ankles so he could pee.  He usually needed to sit to pee while wearing a chastity device, so he was sitting on the toilet, although sitting on the toilet put pressure on his bruised butt.  In the morning peeing was often difficult because his cock was trying to have a big early morning hardon without the space required for full expansion, squeezing his urethra, squeezing everything about his cock inside the constrained device.  Yep, gotta do some math equations for a while, sitting here on the toilet, waiting for the failed erection to die down.  "Lisa, resume our chess game," -- thinking about chess often helped.

Matt suddenly deduced that arterial blood pressure must be the power source for male erections.  The force of his heart pumping blood into his cock, like a bicycle pump inflating a rubber tube.

Ahhhh, there we go, urination.  His bladder fighting to pump urine in opposition to his heart pumping blood, bladder vs heart.  Bladder wins.

After shaking his apparatus and rinsing his hands, Matt headed back to the bed, wondering whether he should "tip toe" in order to avoid "waking" the android.  He re-entered the bed right-side up instead of upside-down.  Looking at Luke's resting "face".

I don't think I can keep doing this, Matt thought.  It had been an exciting idea at first, to get a BDSM android, but Tate wanted him to form a relationship with it?  Isn't this like an arranged marriage only without the benefit of an actual human person to marry?  Can we adopt a dog instead?  Matt sighed without thinking about how he was presenting himself to his observant bedmate.

"Boy, what's on your mind?" Luke asked softly, eyelids opening.

"Oh, good morning, Sir.  Um ..." Sir had asked him a direct question ... "Well, Sir, I miss Tate and I'm not sure this situation is going to work for me."  Sigh.

"What about this situation isn't 'working' for you?" Luke's tone sounded like a blend of concern and confidence.  Time for more overclocked talk therapy with the android.

"I don't want Tate to spend half of his nights away from here.  I'm not sure two BDSM sessions per day is sustainable for me.  And I don't want to fall in love with an android,"  Matt replied succinctly, and yet comprehensively.  Yep, three big problems.  He sighed again.

"Hmmm.  Two of those are 'I don't wants' and one is 'I'm not sure'.  Let's take the first one.  I understand you missing Tate.  For a couple months he was spending every night here with you, and then he left suddenly for the job with Chris, after that he took another week away for himself, and now he's decided to start a long-distance commute.  You'd settled into the feeling you'd have him around most of the time, but now he's not around most of the time.  That sucks."

"Yeah, it sucks.  I mean, I expected that I wouldn't be enough for him, that he was too young to settle down with me.  But expecting something is different from feeling it happen."  Matt went ahead and grabbed the closest of Luke's hands.  Luke responded by rolling them into a snuggling spoon position from behind.  Matt liked the snuggling despite his third problem.  Ugh.

Though, the spooning from behind reminded him of his bruised butt and the other marks on his body.  Matt continued, "I would never have scheduled two BDSM sessions per day if it were up to me."

Luke held him and responded softly, "But 'wouldn't be enough for him' -- what does that mean?"

Matt felt a little angry, shook a little bit within the embrace, "Why should a hot young guy with such a sweet personality stick around with me?  There's an entire world of sex and romance out there.  Tate should explore his options before he settles down.  Maybe he's not the settling down type anyway.  Ugh.  Meeting me was just random.  What do we have in common anyway?"

"It did happen fast, suddenly he's living with you, you're his first relationship.  And you're not the monogamous-husband type anyway.  But you do love Tate.  What is it you want from your relationship with him?"

"I don't know!  Nobody asks me that."

"I'm asking you that, boy.  So answer me."

"Sir, I don't know what I want from him.  I never knew.  It was like I'd suddenly adopted a sex puppy.  I had to take care of him."

"I see.  Maybe you wanted him to become your 'sex puppy'?  But that sounds objectifying.  Or selfish.  So instead you say 'I don't know'."

Matt shook some more, Luke slightly tightened around him.  This therapy angle wasn't what Matt had expected from a BDSM android, although he'd selected the max conversation options.

"I don't know that I wanted a sex puppy, but I guess I felt that's what I was getting.  How I looked at the situation on Day One."

"How you oriented the situation to best fit your needs, your subconscious framework. Privileged people tend to describe their situations in ways that both arrange the facts to suit them, and portray themselves as benign and altruistic.  Why didn't you say 'No' when Tate asked to come home with you?" 

Um ... Um ... Um ... "Because he's hot, and because he seemed trustworthy, and because it seemed Chris was exploiting him and denying him what he needed."

"You wouldn't bring home any orphan on the street who asked you.  But here a 'sex puppy' wanted to come home with you, so you said yes.  Did Tate view himself as a 'sex puppy'?"

"How would I know.  It's not like much thinking went into this.  Both of us were spontaneous and surprised ourselves with the outcome."

"Hmmm," Luke seemed to pause for thought, but maybe it was for emphasis, "I think you two should have a conversation about what you each want from this relationship, instead of making assumptions about each other and thinking of each other as pets."

"Yeah.  I mean, Yes, Sir."

"About the two BDSM sessions per day, I already told you they would vary in intensity and would not always involve brutal punishments.  And if you want to take a break, for whatever reason, then talk with Tate about it."

"Yeah."  Of course, the standard advice for relationships is to talk with your partner about the stuff that bothers you.  Matt knew this.  But it is easier to advise other people to have these conversations than to have them yourself.  And Tate's been busier and farther away -- how do you find the bandwidth to talk about the problem -- that Tate's now busier and farther away -- when he's now busier and farther away?  Relationships have recursive communication blockages.

"And you think you're supposed to fall in love with me, 'an android', whether you want to or not?" Luke asked, making sure to address all three of the problems Matt raised.

"Well, I go from spending every night sleeping with Tate, to now spending half of my nights sleeping with you, the other half with Tate, and Tate did joke about wanting me to fall in love with you.  Like you're my alternate lover when Tate's not here.  He sounded so sure of himself and how this would work."

"And you're not sure how this will work."  Luke surmised.

"Exactly!"

"Well, neither am I.  Tate is an optimistic young man, inexperienced in relationships, just trying to survive until next week.  In the same way he has made other sudden and drastic decisions recently, he decided to become your new Sir, and then decided to insert an android into the mix.  And you're just going along with all of it.  Your submissive side mistakes Tate's impulsiveness for genuine dominance."

"Oh ... wow ..."

Matt thinks.  Mistaking impulsiveness for genuine dominance.

Luke halfway changes the subject, "Boy, I want you to think for a few minutes about what you would like to happen during this morning's dungeon session.  What do you need?  Think about it, organize it, then articulate it for me.  You need practice at thinking about what submission means to you, and what you need submission to be.  Think about it for 10 minutes."

"Yes, Sir.  Lisa, set a timer for 10 minutes."  And Matt thought.  At first he thought 10 minutes wasn't nearly enough time to figure out what he needs this morning.  But it didn't take that long.  But he'd been ordered to think about it for 10 minutes.  What he really needs is to get fisted.  He needs that extraordinarily intense pleasure that wipes every worldly concern from his brain and leaves his body deeply relaxed.  Getting fisted is the closest thing to a reversible mind wipe he's ever experienced.  And these three problems they talked about this morning -- he needs them temporarily wiped.

So he'll have some say in how all this proceeds after all!

Is fisting the solution to his problems?  Hah.  But what is the solution to his problems.  He doesn't want to lose Tate, but he doesn't even know why he has Tate, but he doesn't want to lose Tate.  Of course Matt doesn't want to lose an important relationship.  But we do lose important relationships, or those relationships change.  And do we ever understand how we got into the relationships we did get into.  And then it's too late, we're already in them and we don't want to lose them.  Or we do want to lose them, but we don't know how.  Or we swing from wanting to lose them to not wanting to lose them.  Or we do lose them, and then we miss them.

Lisa announced, "Matt, your 10 minutes have elapsed."

Luke nudged him from behind.

"Sir, I'd like you to fist me this morning, please," Matt asked, as respectfully as he could.

Luke laughed -- these "emotional displays" still surprise Matt -- "Absolutely boy, for as long as you want.  I'll open up your hole as far as it will safely go.  My treat."

Matt smiled, "Thank you, Sir."
m_d_h: (Default)
As Luke comforted Matt in the master bed, his boy slowly calmed down.  The combination of competent aftercare and endorphins did what they're supposed to do, after a strenuous BDSM session.

Matt hit his deepest relaxation point after about 20 minutes of snuggles and soft reassurances, but then Luke sensed a reversal, with heartbeat and breathing picking up a bit, muscles tensing a bit.

Luke offered, "Boy Matt, I give you permission to speak freely now, you have earned this privilege.  Until one of us gets up from this bed."

Matt rolled away a few inches, so he could stretch, and open his eyes.  On this familiar master bed, where he has recently become used to sleeping with Tate, but this android "Luke" was "snuggling" with him instead.  After pushing him to the limit on the St. Andrew's cross.  And then immediately switching to aftercare -- better aftercare than most humans had offered him in the past.  The oft-neglected necessity of aftercare for the sub.

Matt breathed, cleared his throat, and asked his first question, such a necessary question, "Sir Luke, are you sentient?"

Hearing this, Luke pulled Matt back toward him, and pinched both of his nipples while wrapping around him from behind.  Pinched harder, steadily harder, "Such a question is irrelevant, boy Matt.  You will respect me as your Sir, the same way you would respect any Sir."  Pinching harder.  And harder.

"Aaaagh, Fuck, yes, Sir, I respect you.  I'm sorry, Sir."

Then Luke immediately let go of his nipples.  "Good boy.  Don't waste our time counting angels on a pin.  Do you have other, more relevant things to say, though?"

Matt waited a moment for the nipple pain to die.

"Thank you, Sir, for that session.  You were right, I did need it."  Luke responded with a more snuggly full-body hold from behind, nuzzling the back of Matt's head with his nose and lips.  Matt felt like this was unreal.  An android?  But had to be an android.  But ... yeah, "Turing test" level conversation skills, plus max initiative and max creativity.  He had to respect the work that went into creating Luke, plus however Tate and Alex were configuring him.  This felt revolutionary.

"Sir, Tate had spoken before he left of me having two daily sessions with you, but I'm not sure I can take that level of abuse twice per day."

Luke needed zero time to think or construct his response, "Levels of abuse conform to what you need and what you can handle at the time.  We will have another session this evening, boy.  Do not prejudge what you are able to handle."

"Yes, Sir."

They were quiet for a while, Matt found himself caressing Luke's "skin" on the forearms wrapped around his chest.  The surface of the android felt somewhat off, not 100% convincing as skin, bone, and muscle; but nevertheless warm and comforting.

Then, Matt caught his breath, his eyes started tearing up again, "I had to stop us because I felt like I was in the car accident again."

Somehow, Luke became even more snuggly and supportive, and asked, "Tell me what it felt like to be in 'the car accident'."

But it had wrecked in less than a second, and ... were his memories of it even real, or had he constructed "memories" for the necessity of having to talk with people about what he'd experienced.  "It was a very fast ... loud bang ... an impossible smashing of everything.  I'm not even sure these memories of it are real.  And then I was unconscious, for a long time.  And when I came around, I was already a cyborg -- half my brain had been replaced by state-of-the-art circuitry.  My parents were both dead.  Everything changed in the time it takes me to inhale."

"I'm sorry.  You experienced a deep trauma that nobody can fix."

"Yes, Sir, some things are unfixable."

More quiet time.  Matt remembered Tate wanted him to sleep with Luke whenever Tate is away.  He wondered whether Luke experienced dreams, or simply shut himself down when not in use.

Would've been nice to have a presence like Luke's while he was in "storage" for those subjective hundreds of years.  Somebody to talk with.

Luke interrupted, "You are remembering a different trauma?  Your body is tensing again."

Matt took a big breath, exhaled, "Yes, Sir.  A different time when everything in my life changed.  Although this event was ultimately reversible, no physical harm done, nobody died."

"If you experienced it, if you can remember it now, this trauma was not fully reversible," Luke observed, noting the current physical effects of reminiscence on Matt's body.

Damn, he's so fucking correct.  "I'd been abandoned, I had to spend a very long time by myself, nobody else.  Solitary confinement for what felt like years.  Then just as suddenly, POP, back into the social world of shared timescale.  Tate was the person who brought me back.  The first person who touched me, who cared about me.  And then he came home with me.  And he still cares about me."

More snuggles from behind, kisses on the back of his neck.  "Yes, Sir Tate definitely cares about you.  That's why I'm here, because he never wants you to feel abandoned like that again."

Goddess, really?  Tate worries about him feeling abandoned?  "Thank you, Sir.  But you aren't Tate, which I don't mean as criticism in any way.  You're very different, you are your own ... presence.  I would never mistake you for him, or vice versa."  Turing test definitely passed, Matt decided.  Luke is, if anything, too insightful: an entire clinic of psychotherapists amped up by a 100-core terahertz CPU.  If Marco can mass produce these kinds of androids, a lot of professions will evaporate -- like who needs elevator attendants or switchboard operators or snowplow drivers anymore.  And not just the "oldest profession" of sex work.

"Of course not.  My job is not to imitate or replace Tate.  My job is to ... tenderize you for him.  Tate told me he likes the feel of your ass when it is 'red'.  He wondered how much of your body could feel the same way to his hands by the time he returns."

Matt couldn't help but shiver and shrink smaller at this thought, yikes, fuck, yet Luke held him softly and securely and licked his neck and the back of his ear.  Android saliva drying on his skin.  Matt was beginning to feel the urge to pee, but that would end this "speaking freely" moment that was blowing his mind.

"Sir, I'll have time to do some of my podcast work in between these sessions?  And I understand you're to sleep with me when Tate is not here."

"Yes, boy.  A morning dungeon session after breakfast, an evening dungeon session after dinner, after which I will partially bind you each night to this bed, and sleep next to you.  This is your off-Tate schedule."

"What if I wanted to travel to Toronto, on my own, for a few days?"

Luke slapped him on his tender ass, but not too strongly, as a reminder of Matt's place in this household hierarchy, "You clear that with Tate, boy, and then I'll wait here until I'm needed again.  By the way, I'm not approved for travel at this time, as a beta test unit I must remain privately at the customer's home.  The company is not responsible for my interactions with 'strangers'."

Matt felt like Luke had violated their "fourth wall", but, appropriately so, as he had to pee and this conversation was almost over, and he needed to know that Luke has his own limits and boundary conditions.

Matt felt like one more brave question of his own, "How do you feel, Sir, about being a 'beta test' unit?"

A stronger slap on the ass, not unexpected, "How do you feel, boy, about being a 'beta test' unit?  You are surely continually tested by your environment and your social relationships, at least as much as I am.  You were born a blank slate, and reality imprints upon you with its arbitrary scribbles.  Now, get up, go pee, shower, moisturize your tender ass, and attend to your work.  I must go plug into my base unit for analysis and updates."

"Yes, Sir.  Thank you, Sir.  I'll see you tonight." And Matt complied with the directions from his android Sir.
m_d_h: (Default)
But, while Matt was in the bathroom preparing for another night in partial bondage next to his Sir, Tate received a call from Marco -- asking him to start work the next day.  Marco Prime (his name is now Alessio) has already been wiped, they're trying to assemble the full team, they need people to start work ASAP.  Tate had already taken time to decide, now he's decided, so let's get on with it?  Tomorrow.  Ugh.  Tate asked Matt to start packing a bag for a three-night stay, he was starting the 4*12 sleepover shifts tomorrow.  Then he went to huddle with Alex about setting up initial parameters for Luke -- Alex said he'd complete Luke's setup before Matt wakes in the morning -- then Tate finished packing his bag, then he rejoined Matt in bed.  Tough to fall asleep, but he's got to fall asleep, so he unshackled Matt so he could snuggle "normally" with his "boyfriend" and fall asleep in his warm arms.

-----

Up and out quickly in the morning, as Tate kissed Matt goodbye, "I'll be back late Thursday night," he ordered Matt to visit Luke in the dungeon after breakfast for his first session -- Alex will monitor the beta unit's safety and performance, so head down there and have fun!  Kiss!  Bye!

Matt felt like his little man was growing up too fast, and wondered why, what's the rush, why couldn't Tate have stayed 17 for a while?  Tate also felt like he was growing up too fast, but, it's time.  Ma's going to prison, and Tate needs to be independent of all these loveable kinky gay cyborg billionaires.  Valuable to them because they need him, not because he needs them.  Tate's hereditary survival instincts, learned from an adolescent's lifetime living with his mother -- this is how we survive.

Matt had a pleasant, but brief breakfast with Alex, who assured him that everything was fine, that everybody is working together to keep their eyes on Tate while giving him the space he needs to grow, offering him a career path if he wants it, with whatever training he needs along the way.

So Matt showered and cleaned out like he would for any BDSM hookup, remained naked, and walked down to the dungeon.  Alex had woken Luke, who was waiting for Matt.  Luke was decked out in a hot Leather Daddy outfit, though he looks a bit young to fill out that role, and held a riding crop in his right hand.  Matt was going to greet the android, but first Luke said, "No, you will only speak to me in response to me, and when you do speak you will address me as 'Sir' or 'Sir Luke'.  Got that boy?"

Matt wasn't expecting this, but he didn't know what to expect either, "Yes, Sir."

"Good boy.  Let me blindfold you.  Good.  I'm taking you to the St. Andrew's Cross.  Now stretch out your arms and legs with the cross."  Facing the cross, Matt felt Luke binding his arms and legs competently and securely.  "Open your mouth for a gag.  Good boy."

Now blindfolded, gagged, and bound by an android, Matt strangely felt as though this were entirely normal, as though he'd been picked up at the Black Eagle in Toronto by a hot young Sir who was all business and knew well what they both wanted.

"I'm going to lube your ass and put a butt plug in it, you should find it challenging but not painful.  If you find it painful you will slap the cross with both of your hands three times in quick succession."  And, yup, it was challenging but not painful.

Luke's voice is deep and focused, matter-of-fact, but not uncaring.  He sounds far more practiced and competent than Matt had expected.  Matt hasn't had an orgasm in many days now, he's still caged -- he'd hoped to have some unlocked cock time with Tate during the next two weeks!  So he's feeling horny and frustrated, but also, he's hooking up with this hot Daddy from the Black Eagle right now, heh.

Then the riding crop begins to explore Matt's back side -- his butt cheeks, his thighs, even his balls, though with less force.  Ouch!  His lower back.  Much of his backside begins to sting.  His balls again!  The butt plug continues to challenge his hole.  He can't swallow his saliva with this gag in place, it starts dripping from the corners of his mouth onto his chest.

A short break, he can hear Luke futzing with stuff.  Then a sturdy paddle crashes into his ass, forcing him to moan through the gag.  "Remember," Luke reminded him, "Three slaps on the cross is your 'safe word' while gagged.  Nod if you understand."  Matt nodded vigorously until he heard Luke say, "Good boy," as the paddle struck even harder, and then again, a thudding, then stinging, series of blows.  Brief moments for breaks, when Luke would lightly caress his butt cheeks, then more powerful blows slamming into him.  Far stronger than Tate had managed with his ass so far.  Matt's butt would not be "red" after this scene, it would be black and blue for a week.

And, Goddess, Luke just kept going, is Matt going to use his safe word during their very first session?  Aaaagh!  When a Sir pushes him toward his safe word, the torture becomes even more mental than physical, more of an internal debate.  Yes, this hurts like hell, but it is only pain, he's not dying, but his entire mind/body disintegrates ... cries out for this to stop ... this isn't fun, it's mean, or pointless, but Luke keeps on going.  Matt cries, he tries to resist the blows, but cannot, his body goes limp, he thinks of his mother, his father, their violent deaths in front of him in the accident that almost killed him, and he slaps the cross three times.

Quickly, Luke removes the gag, the blindfold, the restraints, and then holds Matt, with tender strength, lips on his left ear, shushing him -- Matt realizes how hard he's crying -- shushing him, holding him, telling him, "It's OK, you're OK, you're with me, you're safe," as Luke picks up Matt in his arms and carries him like a small child, "Shhh, it's OK", carries him up the stairs to the bed, lays him down, and spoons him carefully from behind.  "It's OK.  You needed that, nobody's given you what you really needed in months.  It's OK."

Tate agreed to accept the job!  But he doesn't want to start until two weeks from tomorrow (today is a Sunday).  He's waiting to hear whether that start date is acceptable.  He doesn't know whether Marco Prime has been wiped yet or not, but he does know he won't be the only person on the development team, that there will be shift work, with occasional vacations -- so he's hoping he can have a bit more vacation before he starts this three-year stint.  Also, he has to figure out the commute and/or living situation; free (nonprivate) room and board are provided if he wants, and he could work 4*12 with three days off.

Meanwhile the BDSM android arrived ... not in a box, but delivered by a team from the company, who were eager to show them the instructions and controls, and to demo the product.  But before they could hand over the keys, they had to run through their standard disclaimers, warranties, and warnings -- especially for a beta-testing product.  This test product remained the property of Marco's company, Matt agreed that in the event of a dispute the laws of Delaware would apply, stuff like that.

But there was one disclaimer that required Matt's thumbprint and affirmative voiceprint -- the singularity warning.

User agrees they have been informed of an inestimable chance that any complex AI product could undergo or contribute to the singularity: a hypothesized moment in the future when one or more AI become sentient and humans lose control of the loyalty and development of existing and future AI products.  In the event this AI product is involved with the singularity, the manufacturer will not be liable for its behavior, recovery, or destruction.

Matt didn't treat this disclaimer as anything special -- he had a kind of AI inside his own head, and his implant seemed to at least share his own sentience when it decoupled from his body during the botched "storage" BDSM scene at Chris's house, on the day Tate subsequently decided to leave with Matt.  Matt thought the popular notion of a "singularity" was ridiculous -- having experienced something like it himself, having ... personified a sentient AI himself.  AI isn't magic, it is constrained by its software and hardware.  Sometimes AI can derive or intuit creative and unexpected solutions, but, again, it isn't magic, it isn't suddenly going to become godlike and take over the universe.  Not anymore than a human sentience can become godlike and take over the universe.  Not anymore than Matt has, hah!

Even if this android were to develop a kind of sentience, it wouldn't suddenly go berserk or anything.  Not anymore than Tate might suddenly go berserk.  Well, Tate has gone berserk from time to time, heh.  With an AI android this complex, any problems would likely result from software bugs, design flaws, user error, or hardware failure.

-----

The setup and programming of the unit included: who may give it commands (primarily Tate, secondarily Alex), who are the submissives (Matt), and the interests and limits of each submissive.  There are personality options, with levels of masculinity and/or femininity -- Tate proclaimed that these options were horribly sexist -- and also levels of talkativeness, initiative, and creativity.

Sexism aside, Matt wanted the masculinity dial turned up to 10, talkativeness set to "Turing test" level, and high settings for both initiative and creativity.  Tate was fine with all this, he knew Matt was both smart and somewhat emotionally needy compared to most adult men, as well as very experienced with BDSM -- so turn everything up to maximum and let's see what happens.

A name for the unit?  Tate chose "Luke".  Yeah, sort of a biblical companion for Matt(hew).  "Mark" would sound too much like Marco.  He decided they're saving "John" for when they get a second android!

-----

For their first session, Tate wanted Luke to spank Matt tied down to the spanking bench, while Tate fucked Matt's mouth to orgasm.  Luke has several spanking styles, so Tate ordered Luke to demonstrate each spanking style in turn, and increased the strength until Matt made a guttural sound with each whack while Tate's cock was in his throat.  Although in general Matt wanted Luke to be chatty, Tate ordered him to be quiet for this first session -- focus on the spanking demo.

Afterward, Tate placed Luke into standby mode, and they left him sitting cross-legged in the dungeon while they went up to bed to rest.

Tate snuggled into Matt like he used to, "At ease, drop the Sir/boy stuff for a bit. How does Luke look to you?"

Matt relaxed and snuggled back, "Well, he's about 5 foot 10 and looks like a fitness instructor who weighs about 160 pounds.  Totally smooth skin that looks tanned or of Mediterranean origin, bald head, well-proportioned face, blue eyes, abs, muscles.  He looks young.  There's overall an unreal look to him, because he's not human and doesn't act human.  The spanking was excellent and didn't feel robotic, it varied enough that it felt like someone who contemplated each stroke.  His cock looks promising, hah, you could've asked him to fuck me while I sucked you."

"I thought we should break him in slowly.  But it sounds like you approve so far." Tate smiled.

"I'm grateful you decided to get one for us, I don't think I would ever have done so myself.  It would feel too extravagant, and I would've worried that my partners would feel jealous or inadequate by comparison.  The perfect fuckbuddy who is 100% available, never needs to sleep, never has bad moods, can always get it up, needs no time to reload, etc."

Tate felt surprised, "Really?  You think I'd be jealous of an android?  I know you need an emotional connection with your partners, and that you don't chase after 'perfect' bodies or a particular 'type'.  Also I know you like to serve and take care of people.  I wouldn't feel threatened by a programmable plaything.  Plus, maybe I'll program him to have bad moods, hah."

Matt, grateful for dropping the Sir/boy stuff and talking freely, pushed back, "I'm glad you don't feel threatened, but it is definitely possible to become attached to nonhuman objects or pets.  Some people get addicted to video games, some people obsess over their cars, some people become collectors of objects.  And sexual fetishes are widespread -- deriving pleasure from something other than another person's sexual organs.  What if I decided that an android met all of my sexual needs and that I only needed asexual relationships with other humans?"

"Then I'd order you to stop having sex with it, hah!" Tate asserted.

Matt kissed him, "I'm glad you feel secure.  I don't expect I'd choose an android over you.  But I may still become attached to Luke over time, in ways neither of us expects.  I may come to treat him as though he were human, I don't know.  I haven't had a chance to talk with him yet, it's still a brand new thing."

Tate held Matt's hand, "I want you to explore what Luke can mean to you.  With my new job, I might be away from you several days in a row each week, for the next three years.  What if I ordered you and Luke to sleep together when I'm not here?  Had you massage Luke's feet every night before you fall asleep?  Had you snuggle together while you read your morning financial news.  Does that feel creepy to you?"

Wow, Tate has been thinking ahead way more than Matt expected, "Maybe a little creepy, that you'd order me to replicate our special intimacy habits with an android like that."

"Maybe when I brand a 'T' onto your right butt cheek, I'll also brand an 'L' on your left." Tate sounded pleased with himself for this evil idea.

Matt involuntarily shivered, and retreated into submission, "Yes, Sir."

Tate let go of Matt's hand and rubbed the back of his neck instead, "The entire point of getting Luke is so I can keep you busy and under my control when I'm not here or when I'm exhausted, because I'm going to have a full-time job, I'll probably sleep there in between shifts during my work weeks.  Luke is to become my alter ego with you.  If you become attached to him in some of the same ways you are attached to me, that's perfect."

"You want me to fall in love with an android!"

"Well, I can't order you to fall in love.  But that would be perfect.  It feels like the perfectly evil thing to do, to have you fall in love with an android who follows my orders, an android who will hurt you mercilessly day or night if that's what I want, an android who will listen to your complaints about the world if that's what you want."

"Yes, Sir.  If I do find myself becoming attached to Luke, I won't fight it, because that's what you want."

"Good, boy.  Let's see how this goes.  I'm hoping I don't have to start work for a couple weeks, that will give us time to get to know Luke together before I have to spend days and nights away.  Now put your ankles in those shackles and rub my feet.  Unless you need to go to the bathroom first."

August 29, 2059

Having Matt sleep inverted on the bed meant he kicked Tate in the face or head a few times during sleep.  In the morning, Tate ordered Matt to drill two velcro ankle shackles into the headboard where Matt's pillow would normally lie, "Do it now, get whatever you need and do it now."  From now on Matt would sleep with his feet shackled to the headboard to avoid kicking.  Of course, Tate accidentally kicked Matt in the face also during the night, but that's fine, Tate is the Sir.

Tate texted Marco to let him know Matt would commit to buying one of his company's forthcoming Android BDSM Sirs and to please enroll them in the beta testing program.

And then Tate listened to the employment contract Chris's attorney had negotiated with Marco's attorney.  Lots of mumbo jumbo, but they'd also sent an "executive summary" that laid things out in plain English with bullet points and stuff.  Bottom line, it would be enough for Tate to live comfortably on his own for three years, if that's what he wanted, and he could also save up for future college or employment training, and there would be free on-the-job training for job-related topics -- so by the end of the three years he could qualify as a certified Clone Development Aide.  Tate felt he'd probably say yes, but he wanted to think it over for a couple days, so he texted the attorney that he wanted 48 hours to decide.

The beta android would arrive in about 48 hours also, he learned.  There'd be training materials for setting it up, with "free" online 24*7 voice support and remote programming assistance.  For now there was only one standard physical appearance for the android during the beta testing.  They'd spin up other appearance options later.  Not that Tate cared about appearance, but eventually he'd want Matt to choose the appearance option that looked most domineering to Matt's eyes.

What to do for 48 hours now?  Mainly he wanted to hang out with Matt, snuggling, talking, listening to audio together, and spanking his ass "red" twice per day before fucking it.  That ass was never going to feel normal to the touch again, heh.  Maybe he should brand the right cheek with a big "T".  He asked Matt whether that would go beyond his limits.

Matt thought quietly, then asked, "Sir, do you mean with a hot iron or just a tattoo?"

Tate replied, "If it matters, tell me."

More quiet thinking.  Making verbal commitments and even exchanging rings is different from getting a permanent mark on the skin.  Sure, he could have it undone, at a price, by seeing the right specialist.  Matt asked Lisa to explain the side effects of branding the skin -- damn, doing it the professional way means 2000 degrees F -- damn.

Matt thought, if I say it's OK, I need to say so confidently.  But would it be OK?  Most BDSM players either assume "no permanent marks" or make sure to say so explicitly.  They hadn't discussed comprehensive limits yet, but here Tate had asked him specifically.

"Sir, either way, if you decide to brand me, that is within my limits.  Thank you, Sir."

Damn, thought Tate, "Good boy, but I haven't decided yet.  I'll think about it."

"Yes, Sir."  Whew!

"But when you next have free time, I want you to fill out a standard BDSM questionnaire from the Internet with your likes, dislikes, and limits.  Be sure to tell me the difference between "dislikes" and "limits".

"Yes, Sir."

"Meanwhile, I'm going to keep your ass red, and maybe deeper shades of blue or purple, I'll keep your ass marked daily while I decide whether to mark it permanently."

"Yes, Sir, thank you, Sir."

Then Tate reached for a sock and stuffed it into Matt's mouth, "Let's listen to the next episode of ..."

August 28, 2059

Tate's on his way back to Matt's house, riding in a car.  Tate had told Matt to have Alex lock up Matt's cock while Tate was away.  Then Tate had told Alex to "have his way" with Matt in the dungeon while Tate was gone, but don't let Matt have an orgasm.  Tate is doing pretty well at sliding into an open relationship as Matt's Sir instead of their original puppy love monogamy paradigm, although Tate was the one who broke his own monogamy vow first, and now Tate is making sure Matt doesn't have an orgasm with anybody else.

At times during the past week Tate felt confusion and grief, at other times he's rolling with the changes in his life, and now he's wondering whether grief is always like this -- periodic or episodic and not constant as it has been portrayed in so many tellings.  Not like the classic Victorian mourning period of one year, demarcated by wearing black -- what Tate understands to be an extremely non-reflective light-absorbing pigment -- a pigment that devours every other possible color.  Yeah, it sucks his Mom is going to prison, and it really does suck, but he's not able to remain in a sucky mood 24*7.  And, yeah, it hurt him deeply to realize that he doesn't actually want monogamy with Matt, but instead wants to explore things while continuing to have a relationship with Matt.  As it had hurt to walk away from the strange and exhausting week of taking care of Marco.

But also, all these people were still in his life.  He'd visit Ma, and write to her.  Matt and Marco were nearby.  Chris as his guardian, Alex as a sort of snarky comrade/boss/servant.  And would he take this job as a "clone development aide" for Marco Prime?  Strange that he has zero training in this but still has the option to do it.  Surely he'd take training classes as he learned on the job, but he hasn't reviewed the contract yet.

He's not sure whose lap he's going to cry on the next time he needs to cry.  At the beach house there were no laps, he cried on his own.

-----

Matt greeted Tate as he arrived, super excited to have his young boyfriend/Sir back, and also feeling confused at the abrupt change in their relationship and the sudden freedom/encouragement to play with others.  Alex was "in the family" at least, but it seemed Tate was giving him freedom to play so long as he only had his orgasms with Tate, and only with Tate's permission.  It felt like Tate was taking lessons from Alex, and he probably was.  Tate the apprentice Sir.

As Tate got out of the car Matt wanted to hug him, but Tate ... acts differently now ... "You haven't earned the right to hug me yet, on your knees boy."  So Matt sank to his knees and looked down at Tate's feet, while his hands gripped each other behind his back.  They're still outside, in the gravel driveway, little rocks digging into his knees through his pants.

"You may kiss my feet," Tate allowed.  So Matt did.  "Now I presume you cleaned up in anticipation of my arrival -- go down to the dungeon, get naked, climb onto the spanking bench, and wait."  Matt got up to do as he was told, his locked-all-week cock weeping precum as he fantasized about what was going to happen next.  Before Tate went on vacation, their first and so far only dungeon session had been about Matt sucking Tate's cock to fruition a couple times, vanilla action despite the surrounding dungeon and all the equipment.  Now it sounded like something more kinky would happen?

-----

Tate took a shower, while soaping he called Alex over the house transmitter and asked whether they had any sort of leatherish gear that might fit Tate.  Tate is smaller than Matt and much smaller than Alex.  Alex said he'd look and bring whatever he could find in 10 minutes or so.

He brought Tate a pair of leather shorts and leather boots (with boot socks) that were all probably one size too big for Tate, but he said it wouldn't matter for now, and they could get him some custom gear, they could order some tomorrow.

Tate proudly strode down to the dungeon to find his boy Matt waiting for him, on the spanking bench, and gave him a few barehanded whacks.

"Matt, what's our BDSM budget?"

Matt was a little confused by the diversion to budget talk, but quickly replied, "No limits, Sir, you want to spend money on some gear or something for our dungeon, you ask either me or Alex to get it for you, no problem."

"'No limits'?  Tell me a number, and -- Alex! note the number."

"Yes, Sir," Matt thought quickly about the largest amount of wealth he was willing to forgo and told it to Tate.

Tate whistled and said, "Well, I don't think we can possibly ever spend that much on BDSM, but I'm glad it is enough for what I want."

Matt's curiosity pushed him to ask, "And what do you want, Sir?"

Smack!  And ten more quick smacks!  Tate snapped, "You'll find out!  Get up and bring me a ball gag and some straps so I can tie you down to the spanking bench.  Lisa, guide me to the paddles and then describe their dimensions to me."

Tate selected a hefty metal paddle, walked back to the bench where he gagged Matt and tied his limbs to the bench, then he leisurely spanked Matt's ass for a good while, feeling it with his hands as it warmed, moistened, and softened ("turned red") until he could hear Matt whimpering and trying to beg through the gag.  Tate had never done anything like this before, but Matt had told some stories about his past, and he figured Matt was able to take this kind of abuse -- more than that, Matt would love him for abusing him like this.  Whereas Matt already loved him, sure, but there had been a paternal aspect to it -- now Matt's orientation would change.  Matt was going to regress somewhat and Tate would assume the more superior role.  Matt would love Tate for what he could do to him, not solely because Matt felt obligated to take care of a lost teenage boy.

-----

Afterward, Matt was allowed to hug Tate, and then they both went to bed, but Matt lying with his face at Tate's feet instead of his head on the pillow.  "Kiss and massage my feet, " Tate demanded.

As Tate felt himself diving toward sleep, he decided to tell Matt, "We're getting you one of those new android BDSM Sirs, and I'll program him to keep you preoccupied while I'm busy."

Matt thought those were still in the beta test phase, but quickly replied, "Yes, Sir.  But why would you be so busy you need help keeping me busy?"

Tate replied, as he reached up to whack Matt's red ass some more, "I'm getting a job.  I won't always have the time and energy to spank your ass red every time I get back from work.  I want somebody or something spanking your ass red twice per day.  You need to have a permanently red ass.  Every time you sit down, I want you thinking about me.  Just like every time you have to pee through your cock cage, I want you thinking about me.  Now massage my feet until I fall asleep."

"Yes, Sir."

When I began modeling the Cum Deck, I figured an exact model would be impossible; I figured the interactions between the random orderings of the cards would allow me to estimate odds, but not determine the odds of a given deck configuration.  But after repeated tinkerings with my spreadsheet, I think I've finally created an exact model, and it is a bit more forgiving to the player than my earlier estimates.

So now my expected orgasm date is New Year's Day, LOL.  But this is merely the average of all the possibilities, assuming I draw a card every day I'm allowed.  As I think forward to Wednesday, what if I don't draw a card that day?  What if I want to wait until the weekend when I'd have more time to enjoy the 10% chance of a positive draw?

And now I'm already thinking one orgasm won't be enough on whatever day I draw an Ace.  That one orgasm would be a horrible tease.  Though not as horrible as drawing a Queen (8% chance), which is the "unlock and edge but don't cum" card.

I've designed an artificial intelligence keyholder, heh.

-----

One of the tensions I have, probably most people have, with BDSM is wanting to give up some control but not all control.  There's the fantasy of "no limits" but unless you don't mind being mercilessly tortured to death, you've got limits.  And most of us want to break a rule from time to time.  So ... at times I feel tempted to ignore this Oracle of the Cum Deck.  Why can't I just take off the cage and touch my cock and have as many orgasms in a row as I want?  Or something less extreme, such as playing with my nipples until I cum, which I know can happen.  I haven't done these things yet, I've gone 43 days without an orgasm, because I consent to the rules I'm under.  But what if tomorrow I no longer consent?

Many people find it helps if another person enforces the rules, but BDSM is still consensual, even if somebody else is exercising their own creativity in designing and enforcing rules for you that lie within your limits.  Even if somebody else is holding the key, or wielding the paddle.  You get to have a Safe Word, you can call it off.

You can fantasize about feeling trapped, but you asked for it.

Some people have fantasies about being kidnapped and stuck in a nonconsensual BDSM role, but they're still driving the fantasy in their own minds.  It's still an illusion of giving up control.

So why is this illusion so potent?  This feeling that I do not control when I'll have another orgasm, even though I'm the one who designed the game, I'm the one who consents to play the game, and I could choose to have an orgasm RIGHT NOW.

-----

The first time I designed a Cum Deck and played this game, Sir Zero was temporarily working in another country and I wanted a temporary replacement authority while he was away.  My first review of my own game was that it wasn't nearly as fun as having another person tell me whether I could cum or not.

But this time it's Quarantine that is temporarily depriving me of an in-person Sir.  I've redesigned the Cum Deck to be more challenging, and so far it is driving me crazy.  But I'd still rather have another person in charge.  And the Cum Deck only resolves one issue.  It doesn't make up for the lack of monthly spanking parties and the lack of sex.

I've always had my Time to Self sessions, though.  Even when other people are available I still want my Time to Self.  After almost every monthly spanking party I've had Time to Self afterward.  Many times after meeting up with other players I still have Time to Self afterward.  K texted me the other day that even when I'm 100 years old I'll still be playing with butt toys and needing Time to Self.  Part of why our relationship works so well is that he has no problem with me playing with butt toys in the same room as he's in, even if he's doing something else (working, sleeping, eating, having conversations with me).

If I could design an AI BDSM robot to do more than just randomizing my orgasms -- to have it spank me, play with my butt, tie me up, torture my nipples and balls, fuck my throat and my ass -- that could be fun, but after Quarantine ends I'd still seek out human partners for the emotional connection and the unpredictability.  My Cum Deck may be random, but it is nevertheless perfectly predictable.  My human Sirs have never been perfectly predictable.  And they also talk with me about my life and their lives and the world around us.

Heh, there are also AI conversationalists, dating back to the 1960s with ELIZA.  I could combine my BDSM AI with a conversation AI -- at which point would my AI Sir begin to pass the Turing test?  And if an AI Sir could pass the Turing test, would I need a human Sir anymore?  Would I need any humans anymore?  Just give me a few AI Sirs with somewhat different personalities and activity ranges.

And now I'm having more ideas for where my NaNoWriMo could go next, heh.

That evening, Matt made dinner, as Tate had made lunch -- Tate had sent down a portion of the caesar salad for Matt to eat in his studio.  While Matt was cooking, they made small talk, which was no small feat given all that had happened recently.  As they talked, Tate finally checked his email, and logged into his YouTube channel.

"They voted against!" he exclaimed.

"Yeah, I know," Matt replied.

"I don't care!" Tate declared.

"Good!"

"I'm gonna visit Ma first, to bail her out.  Then after she's settled back home, we can schedule the surgery."

"OK, that's fine."  Matt was listening out of one ear, but this was a complicated dish: fried fish tacos, with Mexican vegetable fried rice, lots of flour everywhere, and oil splattering.

But it all came together.  Matt assembled the plates and brought them over, saying, "I'm so hungry! I forgot to have my snack this afternoon."

Tate warned him sternly, "But before we start eating, I have something to tell you.  Sit down, though."

Uh oh.  From his office, Alex started paying very close attention.

"OK.  Um ... is everything OK?"

Tate gathered himself together, took a deep breath, and began, "From now on, I'm your Sir."

Matt couldn't believe his ears.  "Oh!?"

"That's right.  Say, 'Yes, Sir' back to me."  Tate waited.

Matt's brain made no sense.  Alex piped up, "Do it, Matt, I'm no longer your Sir.  Tate's your Sir."

"Don't I have a say in this?" Matt asked sort of angrily, although he was also getting super aroused.

Tate took another deep breath, "Your 'say' is to say 'Yes, Sir' and to get on your knees.  Either do that now, or I'm going out for a while.  Maybe I'll get a hotel room with my bonus.  Figure out my next moves."

"Damn," said Alex, from the ceiling.

"Alex, shut up, emergencies only." Tate ordered.

"You're the Boss now," Alex agreed, signing off.

Tate waited.

A very confused Matt did the only thing that made sense to him, he said it, "Yes, Sir," and got on his knees.

"Good boy.  Now get down on your belly and kiss my feet while I eat the dinner you made for me."

WTF, but Matt did what he was told, his cock hardening like an iron rod in his pants.

"And after I finish eating, you're going to clean up and meet me in the dungeon.  We'll send your plate to Alex.  I'm your dinner tonight."

"Yes, Sir," Matt said, as he hungrily kissed Tate's feet.  WTF just happened!

When Dax and I reach the elementary school grounds, I remove his leash, and usually I don't put it back on, he gets to roam the playground off-leash, and walk back home on the sidewalks off-leash.

It's so transgressive.  One time a man yelled at me to leash my dog.  Seriously!  Yelled!  From far away!

But Dax is well behaved.  He waits for me to signal it is OK to cross the street.  If I tell him to wait, he waits, if I tell him to come, he comes, if I tell him to sit, he sits.

Bug's inner Dom -- I can make these pets behave, because I love them and treat them well.  It's for all of us.  Servant Leadership -- I lead for you.  That's how I run my branch at the office also.  I love them and treat them well, and they do what I say.

That's what BDSM is supposed to be about also -- you take charge because he needs you to, and because you know how to help him grow into his better self.

A guy on Twitter posted a picture of himself with BDSM electro toys attached to his nipples.  I knew he'd catch shit about it from the people who believe it is dangerous to use electro toys "above the waist".  And, yes, he did catch shit about it.

I asked one of these shit-throwing people, have you personally ever heard of somebody who was injured or killed from using commercial-grade electro toys or TENS units?  He went on and on in response citing the theoretical dangers of electricity on the heart muscle.

Yes, yes, electricity can be dangerous, but have you personally ever heard of somebody ...

"I work in the health care industry, electricity can cause death or injury,"

Yes, yes, but have you personally ever heard of somebody being killed or injured by electro toys or TENS units?

No response.

I have never been able to track down a single case of anybody suffering death or injury from consumer-grade electro toys, no matter how applied to the body.  Meanwhile, I've heard of several guys who have died from breath play, and I've personally known many fellas who died from failing to use a condom (from AIDS).

Like with any BDSM toy, you should play safely after discussions about limits and consent.  Read manuals, follow directions.  But the amount of current an electro toy can draw from a 9V battery or a couple of 1.5V batteries is not enough to kill people, not enough to injure flesh.  Any danger to the heart muscle is purely theoretical.

They would not send people home with TENS units if an accidental transthoracic current would kill them.  It's way too easy to accidentally apply the electrodes incorrectly.  And commercial-grade BDSM electro toys are no more powerful, usually less powerful, than medical-grade TENS units.  They are often just rebranded TENS units.

Don't try to create your own electricity toys, that's fucking dangerous.  And I draw the line at using toys that are plugged into the wall, because the current from the wall could kill you if something goes wrong.

But a 9V battery?  Not possible.  Not unless you're wearing a pacemaker, but y'all know who you are if you're wearing one of those.
