— light of my life, fire of my loins.

That makes sense, though! Perhaps you could design them all on paper and then let your employees help under your watchful eye as they put them together? That way you can fix what needs to be fixed but you’re not stuck making them all yourself.

You haven’t gone to the doctor?! Oh Miss you should definitely do that!!!

I suppose that could be arranged. I didn’t really think about that. I’m just so scared that it’ll go wrong somehow.

You’re right, that’s too many hands in places that are only for my partners. Colombian drug lord?

Are you Colombian?

Oh no!!! That sounds absolutely horrible!! If you need any extra help getting things ready for Prom, I’ll gladly volunteer some hours here and there to do so!

I’ll even bring soup!

I have so many orders set up for boutonnieres and corsages! Thinking about it just makes me internally scream. I don’t know how I’m going to do any of this by myself. I mean I have my employees, of course, but -- well... I don’t let any of them actually design anything because I have a brand aesthetic and I wish to keep it. 

Is it really entertainment if your amusement only lasts for a moment? The rest of my day is just… drudgery, until I get home. I knew I should have become a stripper.

Then go be a stripper, Miss. Your current job doesn’t require all hours of your day! Some people do stripping as a hobby. Though I’m not sure you’d be entertained in that job either. Apparently it’s a lot of almost sexual harassment daily.

I can’t remember, so that’s a good sign.

Also, you don’t have to, you know– call me Miss. Sounds stupid girly and that ain’t me. Don’t really get off on title use or anything. Just Alex is fine.

That’s usually a good sign for birthdays, then.

PM, backdated: Sounds like a plan, Sir! No more secret flowers though, alright?

And you’re Cordelia. Pleasure to officially make your acquaintance. Oh no, it was killer for Mason — but he pulled through like he always does. He’s one of the strongest guys I’ve ever known and always comes out on top.

Valid point. Things worked out after all the bumps in the road along the way. I’m sure that can be said for anyone who has claims that don’t work out for whatever reason.

He’s strong, and always comes out on top, but I don’t think... I don’t know.  Either way, I’m just glad you’re happy. That matters most of all. 

I was remarked two years ago at my old school. I was a Switch then remarked to a Domme right before my ex was going to claim me so you can only imagine how fucked that was.

In the end it worked in my favor though but I remained the same person through it all. Except I didn’t have to force myself to submit because it was what I thought I had to do.

Right, you’re Jasmine. I knew this. I’m sure that was harder for you than it was for Mason. And hey, now you have a great claim you wouldn’t have had if you had staid a Switch, right? 

It’s an alarming amount of people. I’m cuious to know how many of those are from test error versus human error. Ah well there is nothing wrong with being quiet and proud, Cordelia.

Not quite. My boy found out he was actually borderline Switch and submissive, his dad paid for him to be marked Switch (which the Doctor apparently gladly did because Switches had a better chance) but this time he was a hair more submissive than Switch and… I think he’s actually relieved about that.

I’m sure there’ll be studies about it. Plus, it’s very easy to be mismarked as a Switch if you’re borderline one way or another, apparently.
