Game on

If I had to describe myself, if I had to include in my profile a small statement about what I represent in my little corner of the D/s blogosphere, I would say that I am "a cheeky submissive". I say this because I have no doubts that I have a naturally submissive nature, comfortable at the bottom of the relationship and not the top. But, as well, I love a joke, a laugh, a giggle. When I take myself or anyone else so seriously that the fun is very far from the surface, I've lost the plot; the reason for being here in the first place.

I can't tell you how disappointed I am when I go to the trouble of being cheeky and no one even notices. I look carefully for the line drawn in the sand, and then I tiptoe right up to it, observe it closely and when no-one is paying too much attention I put my big toe just over it, just a smidgen. Damn! Nobody even cared. What to do? What to do? So, now I pick up my whole foot and I plant it quite firmly over the line. He has to notice that, surely. And, he does. Oh joy! The game is on.

There is nothing more fun in the whole, wide world that repartee with a dominant type of man. They know you are leading them down the wrong path. Do they go there with you? Of course they do! They love it, too.

So, you are having a conversation and there is lots of give and take and you are more like a naughty little girl and a naughty little boy having lots of fun in the school yard. And, then, out of the blue comes a reminder of your place:

"Yes"

"Yes what?"

Now, you know what you are meant to say. We all know what comes next. But, it is so tempting to say something that you are not meant to say and see what happens...

You say,

"Yes, King Poobah"

There is no answer. You start to get a little sweaty. You start wondering what the response is going to be. You may not like it. The seconds tick on. Tick tock. Tick tock. You think better of it.

"Yes Sir"

The conversation rolls on.

I could be good all the time, I suppose. I could say all the right things at just the right time. I could be earnest and respectful, diligent and knowing of my place, twenty four hours a day. But then, who'd swat me down? You see, even that's fun for me.

There is a time and place for everything.

"Def. Def."

But, if you are not having some fun, it's time to re-write the rules of your game.
