[Morning of Thursday, June 18]The rain's taken a turn for the steady; I can hear it drumming down, bouncing off roof and window. Waking up is a slow and drifting thing, curled up under the blankets with Iago's breath warm on the back of my neck, and I can't think of a damn reason worth moving or even opening my eyes

"Morning, luv. Sleep well?" I softly stroke her arm as I roll her over to face me as I grin sleepily.

Still... definitely need to lay things out for him today. Possibly later. "You've anything you need to be doing this morning?"

I smile. "Surely we could." I run one hand along his back; steady, sweeping strokes, a caress along lean muscle and sleek flesh. I'm sure I had my nails set to him last night, ecstatic scratches as I begged for his touch and heard him calling my name, but it's not done him any harm that I can see.
"I've news I should share with you, stormcrow, and a thought or two for the use of our time. D'you've a mind for one or the other?"

I grin eagerly as I watch her face. She enjoys a small bite of pain as much as I do. Nothing overwhelming but a small taste, to heighten the pleasure. How far will she let me go?
"Will you let me choose your forfeit, luv? Perhaps.." I'm tentative in my requests as I don't want to scare her but my curiosity regarding her sexual limits is piqued. "..perhaps, you're a naughty girl? You tell me what you think a naughty girl would deserve?" There. I've asked, in a roundabout way, and now she'll tell me how far she wants to go.

...well spit and staunchweed.
Shock goes through me like a plunge through the ice in winter, the suddenness of it enough to leave me numb rather than cold. "I d-don't..." I glance away from Iago's eyes, find myself looking at the fading bites and scratches across his arms and chest, and feel myself turn scarlet. Oh. Well, he'd not seemed to mind, but I'd never actually thought of any of it that way over the last week.
"I-I..." No recrimination in him, at least, but I'm still floundering for words, fighting the urge to tell him he's thinking of Wanda, not me. And feeling very, very naive indeed.
Breathe, Glass. I truly believe he'd not mean to harm you, whatever happens.
"Bartender," I say shakily, and the words stutter even though they come easier with my not looking at him, now that I can pretend they're about something else, "I believe you're disc-cussing a d-drink I've not tried yet. I've no idea how I'd t-take ( ... )

"I believe you're disc-cussing a d-drink I've not tried yet. I've no idea how I'd t-take to it, nor my tolerance." She's looking away from me. How shocked is she? More to the point, how opposed to the notion is she?
Gently tilting her face in my direction, I softly say, "Luv, I'd never force you to do anything you didn't want to do. You do believe that, yes?" I softly stroke her cheek as I continue. "I only ask as you seemed to enjoy a bit of roughness, as I do, sweet girl. I don't have a whip hidden under the bed, waiting for the right moment. That's much too far, in my opinion, luv. Plus, I doubt even my hide could withstand that kind of punishment." I chuckle and grin in amusement ( ... )

"I only ask so you have the option of deciding where you want to go and what you want to do."
"I don't know. I--truly, stormcrow, I'd not th-thought of any of it that way. It's--it's never come up." Iago's not my first, but no-one else ever went further than holding an arm hard enough to bruise, and none of them ever did anything but accept my scratching or ask me to stop, and that was where it lay. And of the stunning multitude of my trysts since I left Swansight and took to the road, none of them lifted me up and left me singing the way he does, left me feeling like I was sixteen ( ... )
