A trip out

Today, when I met with Miss Vila, we decided we should have a day off from any Z&A or Raven Park business and go out on a little trip. After a quick think about where to Mistress decided that we should have a wander around some art regions that we'd not visited yet. I won't into details, instead I'll let the visuals speak for themselves (but, really, if you ever find yourself logging in and then thinking "I have nothing to do!" just hit the destination guide and look at what's happening in the arts).

So, here's a small gallery of images from our trip out:

As you might imagine, this trip involved quite a lot of walking and a fair number of teleports too. On top of this Mistress "accidentally" teleported me a couple of times when it wasn't really necessary (with much sniggering on the other end of the Skype call). The upshot of this was, by the time we got home, I needed a top up for both my walk and teleport allowance.

Two touches of the punishment picking book later and I was looking at being confined to a sim of my choice (much to Mistress' annoyance; I imagine that if she ever gets around to rewriting the list that one will go) for two hours and being hogtied so I can only shuffle around for three. In the end Miss Vila decided to do the latter right away and keep the former for later on.

There's a downside to this though. The cuffs I always wear for Miss Vila (Real Restraint) don't allow the pose to unlock without them actually unlocking, on the timer, and Miss Vila really doesn't like the cuffs to ever be unlocked (neither do I if I'm honest -- wearing the collar and cuffs for her all the time is important to me too). So she announced that the 3 hours hogtied would be a pretty flexible version of 3 hours and that, rather, I'll (possibly) be permitted to walk again when I next see her. Which will be Sunday evening at the earliest.

I'm in for a long slow weekend.

It also means that, once again, I won't be sleeping in my own bed as I can't get up the stairs like this.

Finally caught up!

Yesterday afternoon I finally managed to get caught up with the current list of allowance payments. The last one on the list (actually, second to last, there's one more specific one that Mistress has decided is to be kept for a very particular situation, *gulp*) was to be blindfolded and gagged for 3 hours. Before anything happened though we had a little chat about more plans for next month, working out what to do and make for the gifts for Z&A's birthday bash (yes, if everything goes according to plan there'll be a birthday do with gifts like last year). Actually, I started out by showing her what I'd made as the sub's gift, which got a howl of laughter and "I love it!", which is pretty much the reaction I was going for.

After lots of bouncing around of ideas we also decided the Domme's gift too, which I started work on later on in the day (hence the fact that this allowance diary entry didn't get written last night) and which, a texture or too aside, is now done and working.

So on to allowance payment...

Like the previous day Miss Vila decided to go with the very dark world and information removed approach (so no avatar names, no maps, no hover text, etc). She also decided to use the Z&A Light Bulb gag. Then dragged me up the the bedroom, she changed for bed, and decided that I'd make a wonderful bedside lamp while she had a little read:

Finally, after saying goodnight (well, as well as I could say goodnight with the gag on), I went for a wander around the region. With the darkness settings Miss Vila put in place, and minus the map and useful radar, it's a very spooky experience:

So, the one item on the list that Mistress wants to keep for a special occasion aside, I'm caught up! Right now there's no "punishments" waiting for me. Except, the thing is, after later today, we won't see each other until Sunday evening, and my walk allowance might not last that long....

Almost there...

After yesterday's complete failure to make the allowance payment list shrink, I managed to reduce it by a couple of items today. First off, Miss Vila was kind enough to help me out in photographing one of the new releases that should appear next month. Once done we chatted for a bit and she checked the state of my allowance and what was left to work off...

...after which we left the studio and headed back home so today's payment could be arranged. Today it was being denied TPs and also blindfolded for 2 hours. Mistress decided to use the Z&A Punishment Log to deny TPs and, on top of that, decided to test one of the new things I'm working on to do the blindfolding. As it was she decided against making me totally blind, instead reducing the world to near-darkness while removing many other forms of seeing (people's names, maps, location details, etc...).

So, right now, I'm wandering around the region like this:

For good measure I've also been denied things like far touch and sittp. So it's a case of nose up to everything before I can touch or edit it, etc...

Now, will the timer run out before the rolling restart gets here?...

One step forward, one step back

After knocking another "payment" for my allowance off the list yesterday I was looking forward to, before Mistress went to bed today, reducing the list further. That didn't work out so well. I was already getting fairly low on TPs again and this morning I woke up to find that there was an update for the CasperVend dropboxes which, while not vital, was a good idea to apply. Given that I have one set of dropboxes on a region other than the shop's region....

So, yeah, when Miss Vila turned up I had to ask for more TPs. Which meant picking more payment from the Punishment Picker. Turns it it was to be gagged for 2 hours so she decided that she'd do that one right away, leaving the rest of the list alone for now.

We sat and had a chat for a short while (the chat taking place in RL of course -- chatting with the gag it would be tricky), nattering about plans to do with Z&A for the next few weeks...

...but soon it was time for bed for her...

...and time for me to sit and watch the timer on the gag tick down...

I better hope that, tomorrow, I can knock something else off the list without needing to add anything.
