How fair would it be to have a sub be everything you could possibly dream of, perfectly obedient and your every fantasy brought to life, but then you’re unwilling to turn the tables and be the Dom she craves? A submissive yearns for things just as much as a Dominant does. She—or he—has desires that should be validated and fulfilled.

A D/s relationship isn’t just an exchange of power. It’s an exchange of being everything the other person needs. A perfect give and take.

I used all the self-control I could muster to focus on that and not the admittedly dark thought tiptoeing along the edges of my mind:

Mm… this is going to be fun.

I snap out of the memory from hours ago as her response to the message I sent on Google Chat dings through.

RomanticSadist:

Hello, princess

Sienna:

48,809 words, Sir.

She also attached a photo of her laptop screen. At the bottom of it, she circled the word count in red. I flip to the other app to see what her previous count was, doing the quick math in my head, and my brow furrows. She hasn’t even made it to three hundred words this past hour. I need to snap her out of whatever is distracting her. Maybe a tougher task is in order to make her focus. Some people work better under pressure.

RomanticSadist:

Good girl! You're on track to barely make it by when it closes ??

I smirk, a plan forming as I check the time—8:37 p.m. I want to see if she will rise to a challenge if it’s harder than what she had in mind for herself. I expect her to melt at my praise, for her to be relieved she’ll make it by her self-imposed deadline, at which time I would’ve hit her with a plot twist—pun intended. But her reply couldn’t be further from my assumption.

Sienna:

Fuck! Why you gotta say it like that, Sir? lmao!

Of course this woman wouldn’t just take the atta girl at face value. I’ll need to remember she reads further into the specific words someone uses than the average person. After all, it is her specialty.

RomanticSadist:

Barely is still on time. Keep it up. But you'll have to push a little. You will meet me at 9:30. I may push it till 10, but only IF you're in the middle of a scene.

Because you SHOULD be almost done at that time. If you're not at 49,500 by 9:30, you WILL take your spanking. Do you understand?

That means just under 700 words in a little under an hour. She said she used to average a thousand an hour, so it shouldn’t send her into the “that’s impossible” zone where she’ll give up before she even tries.

Sienna:

Wait... the gym closes at midnight, Sir!

Oh hell. Yes, Sir.

I smile as her second message comes in hot on the heels of the one before it, like the first was an automatic, unfiltered outburst before she could catch herself, then quickly correcting herself. But it’s important for her to know from the beginning what will and won’t be tolerated, based on the type of submissive she is, no matter how amusing she may be.

RomanticSadist:

I'm HOPING you’re letting me know that as a courtesy and not because you think I didn't previously check or have my reasons. You keep this up and I'm going to question if you're not more brat or other kind of masochist than I thought.

I’ll have to adjust the way I speak to her and what I allow, depending on her sub identity. A brat needs to be allowed to talk back, to tease and provoke her Dom. Being mouthy and poking the bear is part of what gives them the release they desire. So therefore, their Dom has to permit more insubordination than they would a sub who identifies as a perfectly obedient slave. But the other part of that type of submissive’s needs, why they want that moment of “bratting,” is the punishment they desire in return. Brats are masochists because they crave to be put in their place by a stronger hand. They want their time to mouth off and sass, to get that cathartic relief of arguing, and they most likely enjoy when ordinarily they’d “win” said argument, but it’s the result of it they truly yearn for. The darker, heavier-handed domination, the physical manifestation of the answer “because I said so” that a parent might use when their kid is right about something.

I wouldn’t peg Sienna as a brat. They don’t normally have praise kinks, which is what she craves the most. But she could have more brattish tendencies, wanting to banter as her way of flirting, which would make sense for someone intelligent like she is. She’d want to impress me with her thought process if she was on the opposite side of a debate than me. I don’t believe she’d give her input as a way to provoke a negative response like a true bratty sub would.
