shiny new world

[mrsparkle]

Sadde's running.

Not for any particular reason, just because it's faster. He's been meaning to go to one of the capitals for a bit and now, he supposes, is as good a time as any.

And eventually he's not running anymore, because he's close enough to civilisation that someone might spot him. Not that he wouldn't be able to notice them by scent before they saw him, but still. And as he makes his way to the Norway capital at this more leisurely pace, he notices the tiny, shiny key. He walks towards it and picks it up and immediately notices just how magic it is. He can tell by the way the key feels like things, and different things depending on where it is.

He verifies that what the key feels like is consistent in absolute location by waving it around a bit and seeing that the same place always feels the same. "Huh," he murmurs to himself.

He straightens up and thinks. The first obvious thing to try is seeing whether it opens any doors - a universal skeleton key sounds like the kind of thing a magical key could be - but the second obvious thing can be tested right there and then. He pushes the key into thin air with some purpose, as if he wanted to unlock an invisible door, and then turns it, et voilà, the faintest of door-shaped outlines appears before him.

He locks the door, and it disappears. Unlocks it again, and there it is. So he pulls it open and sees-

The wings up actually fold up pretty small.

But Cam doesn't like sleeping.

[mrsparkle]

Then coffee breaks will be the only breaks they'll be having!

[from_scratch]

Cam adulterates his coffee with enough cream and sugar not to need separate meal breaks, so yep!

[mrsparkle]

And an eidetic memory does not mean he'll try everything exactly once, even though he does seem to like variety. An eidetic memory does mean he will never forget what Cam's favourite things are, though, and since making Cam happy is one of the ultimate goals of his life, those will be particularly frequent.

He really won't suggest anything particularly kinky for at least a week.

[from_scratch]

Cam does not see it as urgent to bring up again in that time.

[mrsparkle]

Yeah, neither does Sadde.

After exactly nine days, however, during one of their not-quite-refractory pauses: "So, about kinks..."

[from_scratch]

"I am pretty vanilla, honestly, left to my own devices, but that doesn't necessarily mean I can't play along."

[mrsparkle]

"I'll definitely not do anything you don't want to do, of course," he's quick to reassure this angel from Heaven- er, demon from Hell. "Aaand from our interactions so far I would expect you to prefer tying me up as opposed to the other way around?"

[from_scratch]

"I mean, if you're really keen to tie me up I don't mind, per se, I just can't promise I won't find the entire thing inherently silly in a way that I might not necessarily find the reverse."

[mrsparkle]

"And you'll raise your eyebrow at me if I do, won't you."

[from_scratch]

"Probably? Why?"

[mrsparkle]

"Because it's unbearably sexy and would also send me into subspace faster than it'd take for you to actually finish the expression."

[from_scratch]

"Really."

[mrsparkle]

"Yeeeeees, really," he says, melting a little bit.

[from_scratch]

"And now I assume you want me to tie you up."

[mssparkle]

"That'd be a nice start," she says.

[from_scratch]

"Oh, so I shouldn't just attach you to the bed and go watch the third act of Atriama you distracted me from a week ago?"

[mssparkle]

"Hmm, well, that wouldn't be quite in the spirit of the game. There are a few adaptations that could be made to that plan."

[from_scratch]

"Oh?"

[mssparkle]

"Well, see, if I were tied up and then you went ahead and let me watch you," and she reaches down to demonstrate what exactly she'd be watching him do, "that's one fun possibility. Edging is a personal favourite, and there are seeeeveral ways to do it."

[from_scratch]

"Hmm."

Fun fact: he doesn't have to actually know how to tie a knot to appear one.

[mssparkle]

That is a fun fact! Sadde's having fun. She's perfectly okay giving Cam suggestions about several things he can do with the power to appear anything he wants.

[from_scratch]

Cam's suggestible. And he can sure raise one eyebrow independently, lookit him go.

[mssparkle]

Yes, that's a great thing about him, she really approves of it. With this and some more added spice, Sadde can definitely occupy the rest of the month if Cam wants to.

[from_scratch]

Cam is actually going to get sort of tired of being constantly sexing Sadde up after week two.
