I think for the side story, it'd be good if all the Mistresses, when they post, possibly add a little [<strong>Available</strong>] or [<strong>Busy</strong>] before or after their writing, so anyone coming into the side thread can do a check of the main one, and check the last status of the Mistress they'd prefer. That way there wouldn't have to be any clumsy updating of the side thread when someone arrives.<br/><br/>As for the main plot... Well, the framework to build upon is the reporter coming in, training, hazed in, perhaps a little work, then discovery and the aftermath. I started from the ending part, working up.<br/><br/>After being caught out, I envisaged a few ideas as to what would happen next- either she's 'demoted' to the position of Club Maid and in-house slave/ servant. Either she would be permanently placed in that position, with access to the grounds and rooms but none of the outside (which is the more extreme idea), or she's allowed to leave, but on several conditions- she doesn't breathe a word or write anything, and is either on 'call-out' or has to come back at regular times to serve as the other Mistresses see fit. Breaking those conditions, she'd either be taken to court for a breach of contract (since their secrecy would be blown anyway) and sued, or be threatened with release of footage and pictures of her in dodgy positions, thereby destroying any chances she might have in freelance reporting.<br/><br/>For the main plot, I imagined that she'd be accepted in and trained, with suspicions perhaps rising as to her true goal- nothing concrete obviously, but dialogue could occur with her trying to cover up any mistakes she'd made, and talk between the Mistresses voicing their concerns or suspicions, however vague.<br/><br/>As for the other Mistresses, I'll leave it more open, as my ideas may not appeal to all, but a few ideas for them could revolve around them trying to deal with a particularly unruly submissive, their plans for training, discussion in-between one another on ways to improve the club, etc.<br/><br/>These are all basic ideas, so pull them apart as you wish- I'm still keeping my noddle in gear thinking about this!<br/>
