Hi dragonsen.<br/><br/>Are you suggesting that the scene play slowly? Or do you mean that the threatened whipping should not actually occur? Or that it should be light and/or careful so it doesn't mark her (that whip is going to mark if it is used on her skin, so that would be tricky)?<br/><br/>I'm hesitant to have her not be marked and whipped seriously after the previous promise when she was in the chair, and then the Rev's big show in front of the cage promising it again. Perhaps another way is to use the whip and let it mark her but then let her wear some demeaning half clothing that hides the marks, though not what a normal woman would wear. Something trashy or degrading. It would still make her seem privileged in the eyes of the other two, who are leashed in a cage and naked, when she is brought back to witness their rape.<br/><br/>I suspect there are multiple schools of thought here. I'm inclined though to go with that idea if keeping Maddy on a bit of a pedestal is still valuable. Unless someone has another specific idea. I'll probably post in a few hours, so there's still time to comment.
