Stories, Part 3: "Kitchen Bound"

Figured it was time for another story...

"Kitchen Bound", Starring Sheridan Nicoll

Sara hummed softly to herself as she made dinner. "Ah, this is the life...," she thought as she chopped the beef for her soon-to-be stir fry. "No worries at all other than waiting for that man of mine to get home...sure a far cry better than it used to be..." She was so into the work that she didn't hear the sliding glass door open behind her...and crafty footsteps softly creep inside.

Without warning, a gloved hand clamped over her mouth and a powerful arm pinned her hands to her sides. "No sounds and you don't get hurt," he mumbled into her ear, moving his face close to the back of her neck. "I'm gonna let go of your mouth," he said and tightened his grip on her, "If you scream, things are gonna happen...DON'T scream." She nodded "yes" to answer him, and his grip on her loosened.

After that, it became a blur for her....rope was flying every which way, binding her hands behind her back, her ankles and knees together, and, most painfully of all, her elbows together, also behind her. He spun her around to put a gag in her mouth...and she recognized him instantly.

"YOU!!!" she said just as the cloth was jammed into her mouth, pulled and knotted at the nape of her neck.

"Yup, honey...me," he said with a chuckle. "Bet you thought you'd never see ol' Billy again, huh?" She mumbled out some curses which were thankfully garbled by the gag. "Heh. I can't believe my eyes....the best criminal mastermind in the business, thinking she can settle down to a DOMESTIC lifestyle?! You gotta be kidding me, Sara....."

"F*c u," she said as best she could while gagged.

"OOOOOO...I think she means that! Hah....maybe when I find where you stashed that last load of weapons, I can bring the best gun smuggler out there back into the trade..." Once Billy finished the thought, the air between them became still...and stiff enough to cut with a knife. She shot him a look of utter displeasure and anger that almost chilled him to the bones. After a moment of silence, he could hear one sound.....fingers snapping, even though the hands were bound.....that was "the signal". He removed her gag and looked at her inquisitively. "What?"

"DIAMOND smuggler, Billy..." she said as she moved her mouth, relieving the stress that the gag had caused. "Diamonds! We talked about this last night.....and think for a minute, where would I keep a stash of weapons in an apartment this small?!"

"DAMN!! Ah, crap, babe...."

"And would a 'criminal mastermind' be gun running? Not nearly as glamorous as diamonds...." His shoulders slumped as his mistake sunk in. "I know, I know...I'm too much of a stickler for the details. But it does add to the fun, right?" He nodded and she gently kissed him, relaxing him and bringing him back to the game. "OK...take it from there and put the gag back....and I made sure to make PLENTY of ice for you to use to 'persuade' me to tell you where the diamonds are....."

Piracy

You see the forum board and are amazed....files of bondage pics from a site you love and it's all there for the grabbing. All you have to do is go to RapidShare and download the pics...there's no harm in doing this right? Victimless crime...nobody gets hurt.

Bullshit.

Who gets hurt? Mainly the models and producers who's pics your essentially stealing. When folks like me put together a paysite...well, it's called a "paysite" for a reason...ever wonder what you're paying for? Well, the site needs a "home"...somewhere on the net where they won't bother you about the content you're puting up. There's a lot of costs there as well...the posting of the pics, web design, bandwith...you name it. Promotion is involved with that as well...sure, you could have the slamminest bondage website out there, but if no one knows about it, you're not gonna sell a dang thing. OK, then there's the legal aspects of it...you need somebody to take care of your paperwork in case the Goverment comes knocking on your door needing clarification about the new model you just put up on the site.

I could go into a lot more costs on my end, but let's focus in on just one...the models. Ever wonder about those lovely ladies you see all bound and gagged up on my site and others like it...why they do it and all? One reason is the pay...it pays well to be a bondage model...and incidentally, they are the most professional people I've ever worked with...they EARN every red cent I pay them. Now mind you, I'm not slamming anyone about pay or rates and...all the models I've worked with have charged me FAIRLY...the rate I pay is good, but still doesn't come close to defraying their expenses (travel, accomadations, rental cars, food...and that barely scratches the surface), but it is a lot of money. How then do I make that money to pay them with? When people go to my site, become a member, and pay that monthly entrance fee...that money goes DIRECTLY back into the site and allows me to hire models and work with them...or maybe get a new lighting set up to make the pics clearer...or maybe get a slammin' pair of shoes that'd make the model's legs/feet look so hot...;-)

You get the point. It works something like this:

Producer hires Model and they have a photoshoot
Model gets paid
Producer puts pics on his site
Members join the site, buying in
Site costs are defrayed
Procducer gets paid what's left over
Producer takes money, hires Model and they have a photoshoot.

When Piracy becomes involved, the cycle changes a bit...

Producer hires Model and they have a photoshoot
Model gets paid
Producer puts pics on his site
Pirated pics show up on the net for free, and people don't join website
No revenue goes into the site, so none comes out
Producer doesn't get paid, so he can't afford to hire Models
Models go unpaid and find work elsewhere
SITE SHUTS DOWN

A bit over-simplified and with the "terror" aspect amped up a little (lol), but you get the idea. Let me say this, fans...

PIRACY SUCKS...JUST DON'T DO IT.

'Nuff said.

My British Friend...an addition to the "Origin" post

EGG ON MY FACE!!! LOL...funny how the memory starts to fail once you cross 40. I was just politely reminded that I missed some major details in my post about myself...specifically, the person who NAMED TucsonTied...

But that's getting ahead of myself a bit. Let me set the stage properly...After I discovered the SweeTies Forum board, I began to put in requests to see pics of one specific model posted...Jenniece. As it turns out, there was another fan of hers out there... a LADY fan in Britain, whom I'll call, "Kaz". Kaz sent me a lovely note at my Yahoo Address...she left me her Yahoo address, so I contacted her. We chatted for HOURS at a time...before either of us realized it, 4 or more hours had gone by of blissful chat about bondage in general and who we liked (in rigging style and models) in particular....sometimes we even managed to put in personal stuff as well...lol.

We are of similar age and enjoy most of the same producers...have similar hobbies and enjoy most of the same foods. I hope I'm getting this across properly...I'm meaning to say that we CONNECTED. She's been with me since just about the start...I was calling myself "Bondman39" at the Forum...the "39" meant to signify my age...well, I'm 43 now...you do the math...lol.

2006 rolls around, and I go to FetCon and have a total blast and take a TON of pictures. Well...we're on an IM together and I've just told Kaz that the SweeTies group would like to host me and my pics...the only thing left was a name. Kaz and I bounced around names for what must have been hours...until she just blurted out, "TucsonTied". I think my jaw actually dropped when I heard that, I liked it so much. The name wasn't already taken, so SweeTies acquired it...I sent in a bunch of pics, and the rest as they say is history.

Now...on a more personal level, Kaz is probably my biggest fan. She's been supportive of all my decisions regarding the site and has sent me many a prop to be used for the site...most notably gags. That gal has extraordinary taste in gagging materials, lemme tell you...not to mention a kick ass pair of heels which I have on extended "borrow" so I can continue to use them on my lovely models.

Kaz, sweetheart, here's to you. Your friendship and support has helped me to get where am today...couldn't have done all this without you in my corner. *BIG HUG* Maybe one of these days, either you or I can travel to see the other....;-)

Stories, Part 2: "Hotel Bondage"

This one stars Madelyn Rose...a few pics accompany the story...

"Hotel bondage"

Madelyn had been seeing the guy for about 3 weeks and was loving every minute of it. He was into bondage and she thought it was strange at first, but after a few times of gentle coaxing and relaxing fun while in it, she was finding it to be one of the most fun things she had ever done in a relationship. The bondage play was helping her relax...and that was something she needed desperately as she was about to give the most important presentation in her life, one that would make the company she worked for financially solid....something that would benefit her greatly in the long run as well.

It was all to happen in another city...rather than be apart, they traveled together and got a hotel room for the night before she did the presentation to the investors. She was just so nervous, but he was prepared....when the rope came out, she was instantly at ease. In just a few minutes, she was bound and gagged in front of her laptop and feeling wonderful. But then he did something strange....he stopped talking to her, and started going thru her briefcase instead!

"Sorry, Maddie," he said with what sounded like real sorrow in his voice. "I hate to do this to you, but there's people out there that would pay MILLIONS for this information! I just can't pass this up. The last few weeks were amazing...I just wish it didn't have to end like this." He gently kissed her on the forehead and left the room, leaving her to struggle in her bonds.....

Panic struck her then...why had he done this to her? Even more pressing was how was she going to get out of it! She struggled for all she was worth, but couldn't get loose. She tried her cel phone next, but the battery was dead ("Did he plan that TOO?" she thought and cursed his ingenuity). The laptop was her only means of communication with the outside world left...and it was off. Trying to bring it on was a challenge in and of itself.... .....and then the door opened again, and he was back, carrying dinner.

"Getting the rush from the fantasy, Maddie?" he asked and smiled.

"MMMMMMM-HMMMMPH!" she said as best she could as she watched him sit down.

"I'll give you a few more minutes to struggle, then I'll come to get you as 'The EVIL Interrogator' or something like that, looking for a part of the file that's 'missing' . Go on, honey....don't stop now, I wanna see you get that laptop to come on!" She laughed under the tape and reassumed her role as the "kidnapped secretary", and waited anxiously for him to begin his usual methods of "persuasion"......

My goofy side

Let me see...what's some..."different" things I can tell you about myself?

I play Heroclix on a semi-regular basis (http://www.wizkidsgames.com/heroclix/). Superhero role-playing game with plastic figurines and a battle map. Basically, you and your opponent form two teams of superheroes and villains, and attempt to kick each other's ass. It's a fun game...and if you love superheroes, it's a great way to see Captain America, Superman, and Witchblade in the same place at once without creative companies bickering and art/publishing delays...lol. Here's a quick shot of one of my favorite pieces, a Witchblade Limited Edition:



To give you an idea of scale, that's the corner of my average-sized laptop on the left...and a laptop-mouse (meaning, smaller than the average mouse) on the right. The figures themselves are about 1 inch tall, and the base is about the size of a quarter. Keep this honey healthy and she can rip thru your opponents figures like a hot knife thru butter. And no...they come pre-painted...I didn't do the paint job there...I'm not that talented...lol.

I also enjoy Ed Wood movies...just for their sheer campiness and utter lousyness. In case you don't know who I'm talking about, Ed gave us such spectacular cinema bombs as "Plan 9 From Outer Space", "Glen Or Glenda?" (which had a fairly decent bondage scene or two), and "The Violent Years" (another GREAT bondage scene), among others. Johnny Depp played Ed in a recent film by Tim Burton ("Ed Wood")...you should check it out. Although he did some dramatic licensing with Ed's life, he got it all basically right and it's a really great film. Here's what looks like a pretty good Ed Wood "biography" site if you're interested in knowing more... http://www.phillyburbs.com/edwood/

Comic Books are a passion as well, but a passion that has passed me by. My favorite hero, Spider-Man, has become a shadow of his former greatness...during a plot-driven storyline called, "Civil War", Spidey unmasked to the public. After a series of lame stories, the writers at Marvel realized they'd written themselves into a hole...and basically re-wrote the past few decades of Spidey stories by having him sell out to Mephisto, Marvel Comic's version of the devil. To allow Aunt May to live (she had been shot by a sniper), Spidey would have to give back years of his life...and his marriage to Mary Jane. He did it. Mephisto re-wrote the tapestry of Spidey's life...Spider-Man's secret identity was again a secret, and Aunt May was fine...but my interest hit the cellar. I dropped all my books....they were taking money I could be using to pay models (lol).

Hmmm....I drive a Buick '03 Century. Yes, I said that. OUT LOUD, yet. You can stop laughing now. No, really...it's getting old...you can stop now. Dang it, she's a cool enough lookin' car...


So, OK already...she's not a 'Vette or something...she gets me where I need to go and helps me pick up models when they come in...doesn't that count for something? I do get a chuckle when I pass somebody in a stylish-looking thing, and leave them eating my dust...I laugh and say to myself, "You just got smoked by an old-lady car!"

If I could live on meat and potatoes, I probably would. Oh, and pizza too. Can't leave out Mexican food...or Asian food...or.... OK, I like to eat...period.

I've been an altar boy. Really.

When I was a child, I desperately wanted to be a stage magician.

I'm a techno-nerd and love playing with all the newest toys. I have a decent laptop and a really cool phone (BlackJack II), but constantly look at the new toys out there and want for more...

I don't watch TV all that much since I got the computer. All my favorite shows have been cancelled anyway and I now own most if not all of them on dvd. Short List:

Lynda Carter "Wonder Woman" seasons 1-3; "Melrose Place" Seasons 1-4 (all that's on the marketplace right now); "Pretender" seasons 1-4 and TBS movies; "Highlander" seasons 1-6; the animated "Spider-Man" cartoon (from the 60's...you know the one, "Spider-Man, Spider-Man...does whatever a spider can..."), both seasons; The George Reeves "Superman" show from the '50's, seasons 1-6; "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", seasons 1-7; "Angel", seasons 1-5.

There's more, but I've bored you enough. I'm not the only one out there with a campy side...I had the "Dungeons and Dragons" animated show on dvd when Vivian Ireene Pierce shot with me...that was a show she grew up on and loved...I gave the set to her.

OK, I'm cutting it here...but I reserve the right to edit this and add more when it all comes to me.

TTYL (Talk To Ya Later)!
