[u3pxx]

PLEASEEE can you elaborate on the gavinners i cant stop looking at them theyre so pretty

sometimes i forget that outside of my friends and servers, i don't really talk much about my gavinners boys* huh! so basically, i originally wanted to make them so i could beef up turnabout serenade in my roleswap au, kind of like turnabout samurai where you have a lot more characters which in turn means a lot more suspects!

but then i realized, wait, i need to make them in the canon-verse first before i could make their swap au counterparts! and so now they exist pftt

here y'all go, i'm gonna be copy-pasting the character descriptions i wrote for them during art fight pftt <3

🥁 DEIDRE MINUENDO

Height: 5'7" (170 cm), 5'9.5" (176) with boots on Birthday: Jul 7 ♋︎ | Pronouns: He/Him, She/Her, They/Them

Deidre is the seemingly gloomy and stoic drummer of the band The Gavinners! At first, it could be difficult to get a read on them but despite all that, they're just like that because they prefer saving their energy. It might not look like it, but Deidre enjoys company even if they're not the most chatty with it and thrives the most when they are around other people (she prefers it if she's around the people closest to her though). Deidre is pretty sensitive and an emotional person even if they don't outwardly express it. To the people close to them, Deidre has a sarcastic streak and can be pretty snappy when it comes to teasing. She can dish it but she can't take it however as they can get slightly irritated when they're teased back. Even if they are a rockstar, they can get embarrassed when people praise or say nice things about them to their face, he tends to brush affection if even if he is secretly flattered by it (he's not gonna admit it though pftt) They also enjoy doodling here and there and like stuffed animals (they have a few of their own!)

Deidre was the closest to Daryan so the events of 4-3 affected him immensely. They felt betrayed and confused and tried to deny that Daryan would be capable of taking another person's life; they scrambled to do everything to protect Daryan from omitting information and even lying on the stand. In the end, all of their efforts were for naught and they felt incredibly guilty for what they've done, especially since she started antagonizing Preston when he was starting to suspect Daryan. They cut themselves off from the group, their job, and stardom. They ended up severely depressed and started to rarely go outside anymore. Only Doremy (Daryan's twin, also a close friend of his) was able to reach him during this time while Viva tried to but he kept refusing to see him. It took them a long time to finally be able to reconnect with the group and it took them a lot of help and support to be able to be well again. Deidre carries Daryan's betrayal to the group heavily and it took a while for her to start forgiving herself.

⚡ VIVA CHI

Age: 25 | Height: 5'9" (175 cm) Birthday: Jan 1 ♑︎ | Pronouns: He/Him

Viva is the lively and energetic bassist of the band The Gavinners! Though he may seem goofy and a little unserious, he actually is pretty responsible and is the mediator of the band (as the eldest brother of his siblings and the eldest of the band, he kind of made that his responsibility). He's a forensic scientist and has always had an interest in science alongside music ever since he was young (he thinks Ema is very pretty but she finds him annoying pftt). Viva was the last one to join the band when they were all in high school and despite his extroverted personality, felt a little shy at the time getting to know a new group of people (it's because Preston was there who he may or may not have crushed at while in high-school.) He's a lover of all things caffeinated (especially energy drinks though he should really pace himself) which isn't always the best match to the fact that he's got terrible anxiety and thinks himself down a spiral when he gets too worried.

Once the band disbanded after the events of AA4, Viva, though left in a bad place with his anxiety shot through the roof, fared better compared to the other members. He tried his best to keep in touch with everyone with varying successes despite Daryan's arrest being fresh and hurt. - visiting Daryan in prison to hear his side of the story - popping in to check at Preston in his office because the guy started to take worse care of himself - contacting Deidre even if she was trying to isolate and cut herself from everyone and looking out for Klavier even if he buried himself in his work He took a break from music like everyone else, he still hopes one day they can meet up and play music again, not even as a band, but as a group of friends who loved creating music.

🦇 PRESTON KEISS

Age: 25 | Height: 6'1" (185 cm) Birthday: Oct 25 ♏︎ | Pronouns: He/Him

Preston is the mysterious yet magnetic keyboardist of the Gavinners! Tall, dark, and bewitching; Preston is aware of the impression people have of him at first glance and likes to use that preconception to surprise and even catch people off-guard by purposely being silly or crass. He has a number of odd quirks and mannerisms that he doesn't realize he has, people tend to notice but they often let it pass because he is very handsome (pretty privilege lmao). Preston can sometimes be mischievous and finds certain things amusing only to him even if others don't find it as funny. He's always had an interest in horror and the macabre ever since he was a young boy which developed into a great fascination with the special effects used in old and new horror films alike. (He can be a bit jumpy when watching movies even if he loves to do it, he can't help it if the movie gets to him!) He plays up his whole immortal vampire schtick because the fans tend to theorize if he really was one. (He is not, he'd love to be one though pftt) Preston is very stubborn and adamant about his opinions and can be difficult to sway if he thinks he's correct; he is also quite awkward when it comes to personal matters, as can be seen in his strained relationship with his older sister and whatever romantic thing he's trying to achieve with Viva. He's used to acting larger than life when the cameras are on but being raw and honest has him feeling a little embarrassed and stilted. Preston smokes and keeps it a secret. (Don't tell Viva that!)

Preston was the first person in the band to start suspecting Daryan which he mostly kept to himself at first but wouldn't deny when you asked him (Deidre did not like that.) After Lamirior accused Daryan in court, Preston was determined to make Deidre confront the truth (unfortunately, not taking in why Deidre might be upset and in denial about it) which caused them to have a fight (with Viva being unsuccessful in de-escalating it.) After the Gavinners disbanded, Preston didn't feel very well after Daryan got sent to prison and lost contact with Deidre (whom he hasn't talked to since the case. [he misses them.]) He seemed fine afterward with his workload seeming to increase though upon closer inspection, he's started taking worse care of himself, skipping meals, and losing his interest in music. Preston has a lot of baggage to sort through regarding his friends and his family that will be difficult and painful for him to confront, but rest assured, he's gonna come out of it happy and well.

and here's a compilation of some very old turnabout serenade drawings too :^]

"Everything Everywhere All At Once says... villains look like cops, IRS agents, and entitled white women with corgis."

hard disagree on this last point.

i don't think EEAAO has an interest in singling out any particular group as "villains," mostly bc half the point of the movie is that there is no villain. jobu tupaki is not the "great evil" bent on destroying the multiverse—she's a hurt and suicidal young woman trying to destroy herself. deidre is not a heartless tyrant who wants to ruin evelyn's life—she's a tired, lonely woman in a soul-sucking job who bends the rules to help evelyn when she learns about her situation. even gong gong is not the intractable bigot that evelyn makes him out to be—instead, he's a fragile old man who ultimately realizes his mistakes and, defying all of evelyn's expectations, happily accepts his granddaughter's relationship.

and that's before we get to the tertiary antagonists like the security guards (pretty sure they weren't cops) and the "entitled white woman" (jenny slate is jewish, so…. *wiggly hand gesture*). said "white" woman, while a little rude and impatient at the beginning of the movie, isn't actually that bad—in fact, she's shown in the background of the chinese new year party, smiling and supportive. and the security guards are ultimately humanized, too, as they are subdued with empathy and the acknowledgement of their pain and humanity, not force.

EEAAO says there are no true villains—that if there is a true villain, it's the soul-sucking despair and nihilism that causes human beings to lash out at and hurt each other. hell, half of evelyn's whole character arc is that she has to stop villainizing others as an excuse for her own choices in life. she villainizes gong gong as an excuse for her own lack of acceptance towards her daughter's homosexuality. she villainizes deidre as an excuse for her own ineptitude with her business. and she villainizes jobu as an excuse for her strained relationship with joy. and, ultimately, she is wrong about ALL of these! again, none of these people are villains!

EEAAO does not say that villains look like any individual or kind of person—it says that the very concept of villains is flawed to begin with.

Everything Everywhere All At Once says ADHD is a superpower, being an immigrant caught between two worlds is a superpower, being gay saves the multiverse, and villains look like cops, IRS agents, and entitled white women with corgis.

Non-Cliche Astro Takes:

☾𖤓 hey there! I’m Deidre, I’m a professional tarot reader and musician, and I’ve been studying the occult for about a decade. Here are some less-commonly noted astrology observations that I’ve picked up on over the years. For more posts like this, tarot readings, esoteric content, and music, give me a follow. Enjoy! ☾𖤓

꩜ Aries aren’t loud for no reason, and depending on their aspects to Mercury/where Mars is, they may not be loud at all. What people mistake for “loudness” is them being chronically unheard and/or repeatedly needing to express their softer feelings by way of frustration. They often feel that their softer emotions aren’t taken seriously until it turns to anger. It’s the only time their feelings are seemingly given any attention.

꩜ That stubbornness in Taurus that y’all love to poke fun at? A lot of the time, that’s them recognizing what they’re worth and accepting nothing less. They’re the type to turn down a “chump change” gig because they know it’s a waste of their energy and effort. Additionally, being Venus-ruled, they tend to are good at being “home-y” people. This only becomes a problem when they extend that cozy energy to the wrong people — they’d do well to learn from their sister sign’s (Scorpio) knack for privacy.

꩜ Gemini (especially Venus’) mean what they say when they utter the phrase “oh, I listen to anything.” Their playlists have the widest genre variety, easily. Their wardrobes are the same. One day, they’re rocking a goth getup, and the next they’re sashaying around in a Gunne-Sax gown like Florence Welch. Their versatility knows no bounds, which is often mistaken for being a “poser.” Their Mercurial minds hold much more information than they get credit for.

꩜ Cancer are much more vindictive than we realize. I’d argue much more than Scorpio (especially Cancer Moons). Don’t get me wrong, they’re sweethearts and are quite sensitive to the energetic world, but they pack a punch. Never forget that they’re a Cardinal sign just like Aries! They are most easily motivated when their tender hearts are considered by those around them.

꩜ Looking for a hype-person? Look no further than Leo. They’re like the intimidating “it-girl” except they want YOU to be the “it-girl” alongside them. Don’t be turned off by their confidence and bold exterior because they’re more than willing to spread that light to their loved ones. They are judged for being a bit selfish, but selfishness is not inherently bad/negative. Leo shows us how to shine without being ashamed.

꩜ Virgo is so much more than Excel, deep-cleaning, and organization. While yes, they value order, they only do so because they are a purifying energy. It’s easier for them to be their best selves and truly lean into the ‘healer’ archetype if their space, and mind, is clear. I’ve personally found that they have incredible intuitions, particularly Virgo rising. Being ruled by Mercury gives them one hell of a perceptive mind. They also are very good teachers/work well with children (Virgo moon/Mercury especially).

꩜ Why does everyone think that beautiful Libra is all golden-hour, Aphrodite, and Coquette aesthetics? As much as those things do play into Libra’s energy, we can’t forget that this sign is exalted in Saturn. Their shadow side is often over-looked or assumed not to exist at all because they are ruled by Venus. Many people are drawn to Libra initially because of their beautiful aura and natural glow, but those that understand Libra stick around because they recognize their depth. Libras can’t forget how multifaceted they are, though — don’t fall victim to the short-sighted projections of others!

꩜ Scorpio, the fiery water sign! Similarly to Libra, I see Scorpio get labeled as moody, brooding, dark, suffering artists. While they do have a tendency for the macabre at times, they cherish the opportunities they get to embrace their lighter side. Curling up with their favorite person and playing Animal Crossing on a couple of bean bags is a dream night to a lot of Scorpios. They have a vast inner world and a similar temperament to Aries (they’re both ruled by Mars, traditionally).

꩜ Sagittarius are, arguably, one of the more open-minded energies in the Zodiac. I feel sometimes their endless questions come across as judgmental to others, when it’s truly just them trying to satiate their curiosity. At their worst, they play Devil’s Advocate, but it’s mainly because they know what it feels like to have your voice dismissed (Sag moons/Mercury, imo). They are open books and love to spend time around different cultures, belief systems, languages, or anything considered “foreign” to them. Very prone to go down Wikipedia rabbit holes.

꩜ Capricorn is often viewed as rigid and cold, but that’s just their auto-pilot persona for before they’re comfortable. Their dry, sardonic humor is truly goat’d (pun intended). As with any Saturnian sign/aspect, these folks tend to carry a heavy burden from a young age. Often times, they love things from the past. History, literature, music, clothing styles, etc. Their “obsession” with money is more so a craving for stability. Capricorns (moons especially) have no problem playing the long game so…do with that information what you will.

꩜ As much as I love the alien Aquarius stereotype, these folks are truly outside-the-box thinkers. They seem “alien” and unable to relate to because they do not fit into any mold that has ever been expected of/placed on them. Also ruled by Saturn (traditionally), Aquarius takes the lessons they go through and usually want to use them to improve the world/their community. I think of them as the more “public” provider rather than an “interpersonal” provider like Capricorn.

꩜ Finally, my lovely Pisces. They’re not crybabies (really, they’re not…that’s Aries)they just have really bad allergies this time of year so give them a break! These little fish are hard to pin down and that’s how they like it. Being perceived really does bother them at times (Pisces stelliums/Moons, esp) so a healthy amount of alone time is a must. I’ve noticed they tend to love statues, plushies, and other artsy/collectible figurine-adjacent things. They’ll also watch holiday movies year-round (Halloween, Christmas, doesn’t matter).

Hats! Let's give the Discworld ladies some wildly anachronistic hats!

(Oh Susan, I barely know ye! Mostly because I've only read half of Soul Music.)

Granny has a hat, and an important one at that, but I swapped it out for a beer scumble helmet (due to Ogg shenanigans) to reward myself for following through with my daily sketch goals!

[time-travelling-chaos]

So, I was rewatching Good Omens, as one does, and I noticed something about the baby delivery failure. Like, a lot of the emphasis about what happens is put on people acting as people, and causing things to happen sometimes, in that case, Deidre and Arthur arriving too early and Sister Mary Loquacious taking the baby, which causes the mix-up.

The thing is, in the book, when Crowley gets the instructions, they directly appear into his brain and he knows what to do, but that's not exactly how it happens in the show. The informations are not transmitted directly, but through some smoke that delivers the information.

But just a few seconds after that, a truck is coming in front of him on the road and Crowley has to move to avoid the collision, but by doing that, he also moves away from the smoke.

Which means that he likely didn't get all of the message, a part might be missing here. And from what we can see in the covent, the Sisters are actually extremely well organised (to the exceptions of Mary Loquacious of course), so it would have made sense that the number of the delivery room was something established and known, that could maybe have been given by Hell itself, and that Crowley was supposed to know as well. But he missed part of the message, and played confident (not as if he was going to ask Hell for more info anyway) and that lead to the mix up.

The thing is, Adam growing as a human, is probably what saved humanity, so I guess shout out to the random truck driver that was there for making that possible.

Bimbo Academy: Orientation Day

Please enjoy the first chapter of my first ever hypno story, Bimbo Academy!

Warning! This chapter has an induction with no awakener. If you're easily susceptible to that, I would not recommend reading this story.

The induction will be listed in pink.

Dialogue will be written in purple.

I hope you all enjoy!

“Deidre, could you come in here please?” 

Deidre hurried into her technical boss's office. 

For most people, this would be a terrifying ordeal. Their mind might run wild with possibilities of what was about to happen. Were they about to be fired? Demoted? Or worse, given extra tasks without the higher pay? 

But being the daughter of the CEO, Diedre didn’t have to worry about any of that. 

Diedre’s father had wanted to give her the company outright when she had first graduated college. She was supposed to be COO until her father was ready to retire, when she would then properly take over. 

But Deidre had insisted she start at the bottom. She wanted to rise the ranks on her own. Earn her way to the top instead of taking it like some sort of nepo baby. 

So far, she thought she had been doing a great job. 

She hoped her boss would agree. 

Deidre had been working at the office for six months. Hopefully, her boss was calling her in to discuss giving her a good performance review. 

“Yes, Miss Kathryn?” 

“Ah, Deidre. Please, sit.” 

Deidre quickly obeyed. She smoothed out her skirt and crossed her ankles, so she wouldn’t show Miss Kathryn anything inappropriate. 

“Deidre, let me start out by saying you’ve been doing a wonderful job in this position. You’re one of my hardest workers. You always get your work completed on time. You’re well organized, punctual, and professional.”

“Thank you, Miss Kathryn.” 

“I hope you don’t mind, but I went ahead and shared all of that with HR, and your father.” Miss Kathryn pulled out some papers and set them in front of her. “Your father, of course, was ecstatic. We had a small meeting, and we both thought it was high time to present you with a… special opportunity.”

Deidre nodded. Her father hadn’t said anything to her about this, but maybe he had wanted to make sure it went through the proper channels. 

“Have you ever heard of Brainbow Academy?”

Deidre shook her head. 

“Please, use your words Deidre.”

“I apologize. No, Miss Kathryn. I’ve never heard of it.” 

“It's a highly prestigious four month program. I believe one of your stepmothers went to it?”

Deidre wanted to laugh, but retained a professional composure. Most of her step-mothers were brain dead bimbos. She almost didn’t understand what her father saw in them. But he constantly told her that after her mother, and first stepmother, he couldn’t bear to lose another woman he truly loved. But then why would he want to go on to marry three more women, only to divorce them a few months later? At least her latest step mother had stuck around. She had to admit, Lana was secretly her favorite of her fathers recent wives. 

“Your father and I both think it would be an excellent idea for you to attend. Of course, it's ultimately up to you. But here’s the paperwork. Think about it over the weekend and get back to me, won’t you?” 

Deidre nodded and took the paperwork. “Thank you, Miss Kathryn.”

“Of course, Deidre. You may return to your duties now.” 

Deidre slid the papers into her messenger bag, and quickly returned to her work. 

…

That night, Deidre returned to the home she shared with her father, half brother, and their step mom, Lana. 

“Another day at the office?” Tommy, her half brother, asked. 

Deidre snorted. “Another day of doing nothing?”

“Hey! I do a lot of things! My influencer kingdom doesn’t run itself!”

Deidre rolled her eyes. Sure, her younger brother did have successful social media pages. But other than that he spent most of his days screwing around playing video games. Or screwing around with other guys. 

“Oh please. I bet all you did today was take a shirtless selfie and eat some pizza.”

“I had breadsticks too!” 

“Uh huh. I’m sure that was so strenuous for you.” 

Tommy playfully gives her the middle finger, then Lana called them down for dinner. 

They both trotted down the stairs and into the dining room. 

“There’s my wonderful family.” Deidre ignored her father grabbing Lana’s ass before sitting down for dinner. “How was everyone’s day?” 

“Good.” Deidre also ignored the Grindr notification going off on her brother’s phone. “Might have someone over tonight if that’s cool.”

“Of course. Just change the gate code when they leave.”

“Awesome. Thanks dad.”

“Of course. Deidre? How was your day? I heard you had a little meeting with Miss Kathryn.”

Deidre nodded. “Yeah. She recommended some sort of program I should attend?”

“Oh yes. Brainbow Academy. Lana actually did that program, didn’t you sweetheart?”

“Mhm!” 

Her father chuckled and kissed Lana’s hand. “I would love it if you attended Deidre. I think it would be extremely helpful for your future running the company. But of course, it’s all up to you.”

“I think I want to go. Although, I’m just confused about this one part of the paperwork? The ‘I consent to allowing Brainbow Academy to alter me in any way, whether it be physically, mentally, or spiritually?” 

“Oh, that just means they want to try and change your mindset! They also have some classes about how to dress more… professionally. That’s truly all it means.”

“Alright then. I suppose I’ll do it. I mean, I already know about most of that stuff, right?”

“Absolutely.”

After dinner, Deidre went back to her room, and officially signed the papers. 

…

A week later, Deidre arrived at her dormitory for Brainbow Academy. 

“Oh… interesting.” 

The dorm room was… unusual to say the least. There were two beds, but they were much larger than any other dorm bed she had ever slept in. They seemed much more comfortable than regular dorm beds as well. There also seemed to be much more storage than a typical dorm room. There was a large display cabinet, a desk with multiple drawers, and the nightstand drawers were the largest Deidre had ever seen. 

Well, it was an exclusive academy. Deidre was one of only twelve students that had been accepted for this semester. She knew it was only on recommendation from her father, Lana, and Miss Kathryn, especially since she had applied so close to the deadline. 

“Oh, wow,” 

She turned around and saw a young man, about her age, standing in the doorway. 

“I know, right? It's unusual to say the least.”

“It certainly is.” The young man set down his one box. “I’m Trevor. I guess we’re going to be roommates?” 

“Deidre. Do you need any help with the rest of your stuff?”

“Oh, uh… no. This, this is all I have.” 

“Oh! I’m, I’m sorry-I,’

“No no, it's ok.” Trevor sat down on his bed. “I’m just a light traveler I suppose.” 

Deidre nodded. She could tell something was weighing on Trevor's mind, but she didn’t want to press so early into their relationship. 

“We should unpack as much as we can. Orientation starts in half an hour.” He said. 

The two chit-chatted as they unpacked, Deidre’s things filling the room where Trevor’s was lacking. They were laughing together by the time they entered the lecture hall, which was more like a high school gym than anything else. They went to sit down next to each other, before someone grabbed the back of Deidre’s collar and pulled her back.

“Sorry, I want the end seat.” 

A bottle blonde girl sauntered to the other end. Diedre heard Trevor mutter ‘bitch’ underneath his breath. She playfully smacked him.

“Ouch! What was that for? It’s true!” 

Deidre rolled her eyes. They sat down a few seats away from the bottle blonde and watched the others file in. Deidre noticed that Trevor was the only boy present. She hoped it wouldn’t be too awkward for him. 

“Welcome students, welcome, welcome!” An older gentleman took the stage in front of them. “Welcome everyone. My name is Master Layton. Thank you all for joining us here. Now, I do want to apologise. I fear a lot of you have been misled about what it is we do here.” Master Layton held a small remote in his hand. He pressed a button, and small pieces of metal shot out of the seats, trapping everyone’s arms against their seats. 

“What the hell?” Deidre said. 

“I would now like to introduce my most lovely assistants, Bree and Gracie. Ladies?”

Two scantily clad women joined the man on stage. He pressed another button on his remote and a screen slowly descended from the ceiling. 

“Bree, Gracie, and I are going to be your professors for this semester. Of course we will have a few guest speakers come in, but for the most part you will be under our care.” 

The woman descended from the stage, and Deidre noticed they were each holding six pairs of headphones. 

“I also apologize for this rapid induction, but over the years I’ve found that it works best with large groups of people. Wouldn’t you agree, ladies?”

“Yes Master.”

The women spoke in an eerie harmony. Deidre had been struggling against the restraints, but now noticed Trevor had been perfectly still. 

“Trevor? Do you know what’s going on?” 

Trevor closed his eyes as one of the women placed a pair of headphones over his ears. He seemed… relieved?

Deidre didn’t understand. 

“Trevor? Trevor, no! No don't you dare put those on me! I dont con-”

The woman laughed, cutting her off. “But you already consented! You signed the papers, remember silly?”

Shit. Shit shit shit. 

She continued to struggle as the woman placed headphones over her ears. Master Layton pressed another button on his remote, and caused a black and white spiral to flicker to life on the screen. 

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

The voice coming through the headphones startled her. 

“What the hell is going on?”

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’ 

She looked all around. But for some reason, her eyes kept continuing to land on the spiral.

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’ 

Deidre continued to struggle against her restraints.

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’ 

She tried to get the headphones off, to no avail. 

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’ 

She tried to close her eyes. But somehow, she still saw the spiral. 

“I am a good boy. I will obey my master.”

She opened her eyes again. The voice hadn’t come from her headphones. 

“I am a good boy. I will obey my master.” 

The two ladies came and released Trevor from his bonds. They led him through a new door Deidre hadn’t noticed coming in. 

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’ 

Fuck. 

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.‘

One by one, more of the women in the room began to repeat the mantra. 

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’ 

One by one, they were led out of the room.

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

Soon it was just Deidre and the bottle blonde bitch. 

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’ 

“Shhh, its ok.” One of the women came and started petting Deidre’s hair. 

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

“Just give in. It’ll be so much better.”

No no no no no-

“You’re a good girl. You will obey our master.” The woman held her head, and forced her to look at the spiral.

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

“I am a good girl. I will obey my master.”

Deidre didn’t even notice when the words came out of her mouth. 

“Good girl. Just a few more minutes now.”

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

“I am a good girl. I will obey my master.”

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

“I am a good girl. I will obey my master.”

‘I am a good girl. I will obey my master.’

“I am a good girl. I will obey my master.”

“I am a good girl. I will obey my master.”

“I am a good girl. I will obey my master.” 

The women finally released Deidre from her bonds and took her through the door. 

“Good, good. Very good.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Master took Deidre’s head in his hands. 

“You’re going to be a good girl for me, aren’t you Dee?”

“Yes Master.”

Master kissed Dee’s forehead. 

“Good girl. Sleep now.”

Dee slumped over in the women’s arms.
