It's the hotel, sort of.  A bit of a blur of many worlds.  That hotel room where Al and Barma go to the S&M club... if Ryo wanders in there alone, he'll meet all sorts of new people.

Comments

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"She decided she'd like to see me top."

Glancing back over his shoulder at Irene.

[moderndayghost]

"Have you ever topped before?"

He has to bite back a 'sir' by sucking on his straw and peering plaintively at Mycroft.

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"Extensively."

He promises, with a faint note of utter authority.

[moderndayghost]

"You could let her see you top me...if you wanted."

Smiling, just a little.

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"What a kind offer."

And a very fast one. Mycroft looks him up and down again.

[moderndayghost]

Ryo shifts uncomfortably, and looks at Irene again.

"You don't have to, if I'm not-"

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"Tell me about yourself, Ryo. How do you play? What do you like?"

[moderndayghost]

"I'm usually a bottom."

He tries to remember Break's word for it.

"A heavy bottom? And there's not much I don't like. Psychological things are really nice. I like bruises. Uhm, what about you?"

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"I switch."

He explains, though that's evident.

"I like domination play."

[moderndayghost]

"Like, giving orders, or collars?"

He's intrigued.

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"Orders, mostly. A dotting of humiliation play here and there."

He explains.

"It would be largely about putting on a show for her, if you're comfortable with that."

[moderndayghost]

He smiles and nods.

"I like humiliation play. If she wants to watch, I don't mind an audience."

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"Do you have any hard limits, or preexisting injuries?"

Tilting his head.

[moderndayghost]

"Just don't kill me."

He laughs, so it won't seem strange.

"I have a bad knee. This one. I smoke a lot--some people get really worried about that, if we're doing breath play."

[bigbrotheriswatching]

Mycroft's eyebrows simply arch. He doesn't take it as a joke.

"I need to trust that you will safeword, Ryo."

[moderndayghost]

He smiles faintly.

"I will, sir. My word is 'icicle'. I've used it before."

Just once before, but it had proven to him that he could use it, and it would work.

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"What else, then, am I not to do? Other than killing you."

Curious.

[moderndayghost]

He worries his lower lip a moment.

"Don't kiss me on the mouth. Does that--is that weird?"

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"I shouldn't presume to touch you sexually, hardly knowing you."

After all.

[moderndayghost]

"In this place, most people just assume you're there to have sex."

He explains, but also warns. A lot of newcomers find that out in, at best, uncomfortable situations.

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"Well, I intend to make no such assumptions."

He informs him, serenely.

[moderndayghost]

He smiles, leaning forward a little, eager at the idea of pure play. He enjoys sex, of course. Especially with the partners he's closest to. But it also distracts from the rest of the experience.

"What sort of humiliation play do you like, sir?"

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"Emphasis on service and submission, usually."

Confessing, thoughtfully.

"Tests of self-discipline."

[moderndayghost]

"I've never done service."

Not really, anyway, nothing that would normally be thought of.

"I like self-discipline tests, though. Once, someone sat me on my knees against a wall and told me to stay until they came back. They were gone for hours."

Maybe hours. It had felt like it.

[bigbrotheriswatching]

"And did you like that part?"

Curious.

"The pain of the uncertainty?"
