Last post by Zeedrot - December 16, 2025, 05:48:58 PMQuote from: feline on December 15, 2025, 12:21:34 PMYou know, I just got back here from doing quite a lot of reading and commenting over on DA, so looks like I will be back to DA again soon, since I am really curious to see where you went with this nextYou are going to have to do something a little crazy to move this forward, given how far things have already gone, so I am not expecting something tame and sensible
*looks around nervously* um...about that. Lol
In all honesty when my audience over there started asking for a sequel and I said I would, my first thought was "well, shit, how am I going to up the ante in this logically and not make it too absurd, and write a proper conclusion?"
Whether you read it here or there I'm sure you'll see I didn't quite pull it off lol. There are some logic leaps and the shifting emotions of the characters probably are a bit sudden for some folks. That said, it seems like most people still enjoyed it for what it is, and it is more of a proper conclusion at least.

Pet & PonyGirl Stories / Re: Testing the Queen's Pony G...
Last post by feline - December 16, 2025, 04:43:08 PMI am going to have another go at commenting as I read, so hopefully the comments will make sense. First up, the title and story tags are drawing my eye, and giving me quite a lot of hope... pony play can be fun, but magic... now you really have my interest, since if this is set in a world with magic, suddenly you can do all sorts of things that otherwise don't make sense, or need far to much time trying to set up and explain. Instead "it's magic", and on to the naughty fun!
Off to a good start, nice world building, and a lot of history between our two characters. The history speaks to a lot of trust on Sylvae's part, which is going to be important if things are going in the direction I hope they are going I also like the suggested dynamic of the tiny Dana ordering the much larger, stronger and more dangerous Sylvae around 
Half way across the world... not sure merely eager to help out really properly describes this! It does beg the question of how helping out normally goes, since this level of eagerness almost suggests desperation, rather than simply helping out a friend while in the neighbourhood...
Watching the two of them talk, Dana rambling without actually offering up any relevant or useful details, and Sylvae calling her darling, it makes me think of a married couple who are quite in love with each other, rather than just friends.
The drawings showing the requested device, so clearly showing Sylvae in the restraints, play into this sense of a deeper connection between these two women.
EIGHT hours walking in a circle... training enchantments... it seems the queen really is serious about pony play, this is WELL beyond a "pony girl outfit", but it is also nice to know that I did get the right idea about the large circle in the middle of the room, it did suggest one of those horse walking in circles devices. But this is only the base outfit?! The scroll bar position makes me think we are not going to get through all of the extra bits, not in good detail, but time will tell.
Clinically professional about a naked Sylvae, makes sense in a professional setting, but still not really forming any good mental model of the sort of relationship these two have, since there are clear hints of kinky toys being tested in the past, and the eagerness and pet names suggest a very intimate relationship, but other things don't.
Ah... wanting and praying that Dana would look at her with longing, well, that actually gives us firm, if very surprising information about their relationship state.
The nerves at having the blinkers put on are well done, and fit well with the very environmentally and threat aware woman we started the story watching, which Dana almost seems quite unaware of
The attunement time requirement seems random, but that's magic for you! The do it yourself, and seal without coming off for a time enchantments fit with the plans so well, and make a lot of sense
The warm reaction to being called a good girl, just after the demeaning communication method is agreed upon, most sexy
Obvious logical point, one assumes the queen will be able to secure herself to the training rig on her own? Also, editing point, missing closing speech marks here:
>> "Alright let's get you hooked up to the training rig and try a few circuits around the circle before applying the last couple adjustments. Sylvae wondered what adjustments would be necessary, but decided she would just have to wait to find out.
I think I have another editing point, since "tittering" seems the wrong word here:
>> After a few rotations Dana seemed satisfied, and she stopped the device. Sylvae came to a halting stop tittering in the boots slightly.
perhaps you were going for shuffling, or something like that?
OUCH!!! All that pain, partly because you weren't given all the instructions! Not fun!
Given Dana knows what the system is designed to do, how it is designed to reward the correct walking, she seems surprisingly unaware of the inevitable effect of all of this pleasure poured, forced even, into the pony! Mixed into this is the effect of Dana getting all firm and commanding, an interesting and heady mix!
Good to see Dana finally putting the pieces together and understanding what is happening, and the effect of the orgasms on our "pony" here!
Come the end, really enjoyed this! It feels sort of romantic, but also sad in the sense that Dana really does seem quite oblivious to the major feelings her "friend" has for her! Even after various sexually themed tests and experiences! Assuming there is a follow on part ever, I wonder if the mysterious patron will do anything to help nudge these two closer together.
From a logical point of view, I was left with the impression there were "loads" of extra bits that went with the outfit, but we didn't get loads of extra bits, just the expected bits. Also no mention of how the queen would connect herself to the walker, but that bit is hardly required or important.
I did love the imagery and feelings that all of this evokes though

General Discussion / AI-assisted Submission Guideli...
Last post by teanndaorsa - December 16, 2025, 10:47:51 AMOkay, so this post is going to add some guidelines relevant to use of AI in submissions to the Plaza. This is something that's picked up in recent months, so I want to set out our stall clearly in advance of getting any more submissions.
To be clear, I'm not talking about AI-generated images which authors often like to include in their stories. We don't publish those - partly because I'm uncomfortable with how they have scraped original, copyrighted works and imagery without permission, partly because I'm not keep on too much imagery for hosting and aesthetic reasons in what is primarily a text-based medium. The only imagery I'll host with stories are commissioned works and self-drawn / captured images. If someone wants to post a link like "inspired by this image" where it's hosted somewhere else, that's about as far as I'll go.
Much, much fuzzier is the use of AI tools to assist in text editing. Obviously I encourage use of spell checkers and grammar checkers, and to some extend modern AI tooling is just those but on steroids. AI tools are super-tempting for people to use, especially when they are not confident in their own writing skills. Just plug the ideas for your story in, and out pops well-written prose. And if they actually worked like that, I wouldn't really have a problem with them at all. Less spell-checking, grammar correction and copy-editing for me: great.
The issue is that, used poorly, they don't work like that. When you generate a story a few paragraphs at a time, that section will probably be consistent and correct in and of itself. But I'm seeing submissions where it flails wildly from past tense to present tense; where the first-person viewpoint shifts from one character to another with no warning; where the punctuation style is wholly different; and where the same words and phrases are used over, and over, and over. That last one can be especially bad, I've seen whole paragraphs repeated three, four times in a six-thousand word story, like ChatGPT only knows one sort of orgasm and by golly it's determined to tell you about it, the same way every time. But humans are pattern-recognition machines, and they spot that repetition, fast. At best, they just get temporarily confused, like "haven't I read this bit already, did I get lost?" At worst they cringe and close the story, mentally dismissing it as repetitive, incoherent rubbish.
Several authors now have put submissions in along the lines of "English is not my first language, but AI lets me write the stories I've always had in my head". Again, I don't have a problem with that, I'm glad it's now a possibility. But it only makes the real problem worse: to use AI tools effectively, you have to properly read what they produce, and edit to correct the problems with it. That's still probably easier than writing the text from scratch, but if you can't read English well, you won't be able to do that. But it is absolutely possible, given enough effort. There have been submissions where the author has been clear they use AI to help, and had they not said so I wouldn't have been able to tell. That is the quality bar that I am looking for: not noticing their use.
More generally, I am not volunteering to be your writing partner. Please do not ask me to just "make the edits as I see fit", I simply do not have the time. Just because I am able to spot these problems, does not mean that I can effectively change the writing to remove them. This is an order of magnitude harder than the copy-editing tweaks described earlier in this thread, and it is nigh-on impossible to do without assuming the intent of the original author. It is something that the authors have to do themselves, as part of their writing, or in collaboration with an editor they have found for themselves.
With that in mind, authors should bear in mind that I will refuse submissions that have these sorts of quality issues in them, even if it makes me sad because I want to read the ideas they contain.

Last post by feline - December 15, 2025, 12:21:34 PMYou know, I just got back here from doing quite a lot of reading and commenting over on DA, so looks like I will be back to DA again soon, since I am really curious to see where you went with this next You are going to have to do something a little crazy to move this forward, given how far things have already gone, so I am not expecting something tame and sensible
Yes, the idea of the hotel doing this is "unrealistic", but its the sort of unrealistic that works in a story. Any business that attracts new customers needs a hook, a reason to draw them in, and the reputation you have in certain circles is going to be one such hook. So the reader has to suspend belief a bit, but there is a logic to all of this, it isn't totally crazy and stupid, so we can accept it and work with it.
For the staff at the hotel, this is work, it is what they are paid to do... it is going to loose all the excitement and passion real quick, when most of the time it's people just groping in the dark for something they read in a bad book, so the sense that it came across as a chore really works well and makes the world feel "real" to me
The air conditioning unit, at first I just took it as building background and depth, but when you cycled back to it, I thought this was brilliant, since it tied the story together, giving it a sense of being one cohesive whole
I think the over confident Dom is a very good point to explore... there is being confident in what you know you can do, but being confident outside your area of knowledge... that isn't confidence, that is stupid and possibly even wilful arrogance, with someone else's safety at risk! So seeing Jo feeling out of her depth, while also being encouraged and rewarded with such positive reactions, seeing her getting caught up in her own feelings of pleasure and passion, going with the flow then coming to her senses... this felt like a real person going through real moments, trying to do her best for everyone. She was deeply sympathetic, someone I really felt for and wanted to see do well, she was trying so very hard, putting so much effort into something so often empty and unrewarding, she deserved to really feel passion and delight in all of this for once!

Maidbots.net stories feedback / Re: No Longer Alone by Gromet
Last post by feline - December 15, 2025, 11:19:53 AMI find myself really quite torn on this story. On one paw, I love and adore the wonderfully romantic feelings forming and growing between the wife and her robot... I do wonder to what degree these feelings can ever be reciprocated, to what degree the robot can be considered to have feelings, but the love, safety and happiness that are happening are strong, moving and quite undeniable.
Yet at the same time, every time I feel this, every moment of delight and happiness makes me wonder what about her absent husband, the relationship that you can almost feel dying as this new relationship grows and blossoms.
So a lot of feelings, but many of them quite mixed, but the new relationship really is quite beautiful

An 18 year old homeless girl lived with her 70 year old homeless girlfriend in an empty, remote and quiet homeless camp in an forest and one day had the the woman and the girl been going back to the camp with two shiny, clear, round, blue and very thick balloons with very wide rubber necks from an new nearby suburb toy store that had an opening party. The sleepy girl and the sleepy woman was at 3AM rubbing their hands against the shiny, very badly stinky, loudly squealing, clear, round, blue and very thick balloons with very wide rubber necks against an big pile of 5 bags full smelly, 50 year old unused food that laid in an dusty and mold and asbestos filled freezer from 3AM until 7AM non stop. Then was the woman and the girl grabbing the shiny, very badly stinky, loudly squealing, clear, round, blue and very thick balloons with very wide rubber necks from 10AM until 1PM in the remote and quiet and forest. The sleepy girl and the sleepy woman was at 1AM blowing air in 2 shiny, loudly squealing, clear, hissing, growing, round, blue balloons until the very thick balloons got very wide rubber necks and again was the woman and the girl rubbing their hands against the shiny, very badly stinky, loudly squealing, clear, round, blue and very thick balloons with very wide rubber necks against an big pile of 5 bags full smelly, 50 year old unused food that laid in an dusty and mold and asbestos filled freezer from 1AM until 4AM non stop.
