Not the "proper" thread, but perhaps Gromet can update the story link, when spare time appears. Given the forum has been wiped out, I sadly don't expect Gromet to have time for such niceties any time soon, a nasty business that!
So, onto the story, to be found here:
http://www.boundstories.net/storiesek/johnsonropefactory.htmlI am curious to know how the comments were leaning, since the story ends with a question about which way to lean the follow up part. Perhaps Jackie had read that and can fill us in?
I really enjoyed this story. The start point was a little "odd", it just made me smile and roll my eyes, finding out that the inspector was holding a grudge against the rope company for the lost bet, and holding the quality of the rope against them, as if weaker rope would have made an escape so much easier?! Really very silly, but exactly the sort of silly and emotional reaction and thinking that people are so very prone to, so while it was "odd" it was also really quite believable and real.
The setting and the adverts got my attention, sex sells, and here we are in a rope factory with a kinky lady... yep, my interest has definitely been grabbed
Looking back over events, having read the story, I can see just how well manipulated the whole situation was, but at the same time, given the absolute power the inspector holds, and the real and massive damage a recall, even an invalid and false one, would do to the company, the inspector held all of the cards.
Which begs the question, did she know anything about our saleswoman before approaching this company, or did she pick up on something and grab the opportunity when it presented its self? To me, this manipulation, and the clear sense of planning and a direction from the first day, the first step, says that she knew exactly what she was up to, and thus knew enough of the key details about our saleswoman before she started all of this.
Given the saleswoman's history of playing with some of the workers, perhaps that is how the information leaked. Probably not important in the grand scheme of things, but I am curious, and wonder if we will learn any more of the back story in the future.
I love the changing roles, and the emotions that go with these shifts and changes. There is enough detail to keep this sharp and clear, I can picture things so well, but it's the wonderful feelings, the shifting power, the total control the "shy and innocent" inspector has, who reveals her knowledge and experience, but only once it is to late to stop her...
and even then slowly, making sure that the bondage and the erotic haze keep her toy placid and in place until it is far, FAR to late do do anything about it.
Jackie, this won't be any surprise, I want a happy follow up. Playful sounds good, and is generally my preference. It sort of depends on how playful you are thinking. There is a sense of darkness that has slowly crept over this story as it has gone alone, that's part of its power, part of its emotional tone, but at the same time, the inspector has never really been cruel. Mean certainly, but never to much, never going to far, and I don't really want to see her loose that quality, I want to keep the happy playfulness of this, while also taking advantage of the naughtiness of this situation, the inspector and at least one other, with their helpless and very willing toy...
Plus all the rope they could ever want... yummy!
