Accedence | Rule 63 Lando/Daniel | Explicit | WIP

Lando didn’t even want a companion. She had nothing against them; they were helpful for the male loneliness epidemic and things like that, but she didn’t need one personally, and if she were to choose one for herself it would be a woman. Female companions were rarer and more prestigious and what the hell was Lando supposed to do with this ran-through old guy? 

“You have a lot in common,” Zak said, his blustery American twang. “I just think you’ll really get along.” 

Which was bullshit, of course. He didn’t really think Lando was going to get along with a washed up companion ten years her senior; Zak wanted the exposure. It was like any other company that sent her PR in the mail hoping to get free advertisement, except this chill no pressure “present” required her to sign a contract that was ninety eight pages long. 

She couldn’t maim Daniel, it said, and then it went on for three pages to define maiming. She couldn’t scar him on more than 10% of his total surface area, cumulatively. No disfiguring, which required another five pages of definition. She was responsible for ensuring all his basic needs were met in a reasonable manner. Ten pages of what constituted reasonable including example templates of feeding schedules and rest guidelines. If she kept him awake for more then 24 hours straight it constituted torture and she wasn’t allowed to torture him for more than two days without breaks or three days with, and either way she was required to seek professional medical assessment upon the conclusion. 

She wasn’t allowed to kill him. No tedious legal jargon around that one. She just wasn’t allowed to kill him, full stop. 

“You know it’s insane that you’re making me sign this,” Lando said. “I’m not going to do a freaking intentional murder.”

“More insane if we didn’t,” Zak said cheerfully. “Alright, Daniel.” 

Daniel, who’d been standing in a way that looked relaxed while still not moving a muscle, stepped forward. Zak hugged him. Zak hugged him for a long time. 

When the hug stretched on absurdly, Lando snapped, “That’s enough. You’re going to, fricken, use him up or whatever.” 

Oh Daniel you would thrive as a companion.

(He would be miserable, but thats okay I like it)

YES, nonnie, y e s. i genuinely have thought about this soooo much.

okay, firstly, yes, daniel would be miserable, but also there's only a certain level of misery that i want for my characters, so if i did write daniel as a companion he wouldn't have experienced the level of abuse that he did in original IA verse. that daniel, still trapped as a companion, is brutal whump fic, and that's just too much hurt for my tastes.

so let's imagine instead that it's a companion daniel who's had an easier time of it, and even though there's still friction between him and lando, daniel's not living an active nightmare.

but the other thing i was thinking. what if lando's a girl 🙂‍↕️ i know, like to be fair probably daniel should be a girl again, because lando's been a girl a lot. but! if lando was a girl then i could write femdom and i would love to write femdom.

great question that we both would like to know so we can plan our lives accordingly.

a great question that i have also wondered about. the story is getting close to 15k words so obviously i was wrong about my previous word count estimates, which were, truthfully, just a lie i told myself to make it easier to keep writing. but the thing is, it's really really really fun to write danny ric as a sex slave.

to quote @striae-tional in the gdoc:

i've finished the first two chapters and i think there's going to be four total (if i'm wrong about that i don't mind because i love the number five), so i guess i was thinking i'd wait until i had the third chapter finished before i started posted.

Part one???

Will be there a part two???

Will it be a series?

Or it's like..chapter one
