ORIGINAL: ImaginativeWhims ... and now that I have it, I'd like to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for complying as requested. Now, that wasn't too bad was it? The meat and potatoes: Looking down at her there on her knees in front of me, eyes on the floor, it's so quiet that all I can hear are the birds chirping outside the window and her soft sobbing. I haven't raised a hand to her, nor have I taken off my belt, but she kneels there crying nonetheless because she knows she's broken my Cardinal Rule: Don't make me repeat myself more than once. I like to think myself a fair man, I tend to reward good behavior and a job well done lavishly. If I asked that something be done a specific way or within a specific time frame, and my expectations are exceeded dramatically, I've even been known to ask my pet what fantasy I can fulfill for such wonderful work. On the other hand my punishments are equally dramatic... small infractions leading to regular activities being done while blindfolded or having a single limb tied... larger infractions leading to the exclusion of favored items and activities. Break my Cardinal Rule, and the most painful, destructive, soul-wrenching punishment will fall on you: My Disappointment. To Disappoint your Master is to lose a small portion of that connection with Him, to distance yourself from His attentions. The query: Fellow members/friends/family of CM I pose to you two scenarios - For those Standing: How severe was it for them when they knowingly broke your Cardinal Rule? (I won't ask what it may be for some will not wish to share.) For those kneeling: How severe was the punishment when you knowingly broke Their Cardinal Rule? (You just had to test the waters, didn't you? You just had to know how far you could push...) I get your theme and that I don't much care for hearing my own voice repeating itself. But underneath the fancy wrapping, your version seems to habitate the passive/aggressive extremities for my liking. And I prefer to keep anger out of it.... Focus.
