maderrI'm so sick of the sex slave/perfectly made creature to serve your every need I can't stand it -__-
Mind you, I say this fully aware I have my dwtd dragons. I guess that means I have no room to talk. But, srsly, shit like this just annoys me because it makes no goddamn sense in the end:
Hajiri is a zonewarrior. A former gunwhore who once sold his body for money, he’s looking for the job that will let him move up in the live and die world of the Shinjuku Containment Area.
A chance meeting outside a popular Shinjuku club leaves Hajiri in the possession of a corporate high roller’s battlepet. A young human/snow leopard cross genetically engineered to be the perfect sexual partner and bodyguard.
The last thing Hajiri needs is a complication in his life. But how can he turn away a person who had been tossed out like so much trash, especially when that man just saved his life?
Hajiri doesn’t want responsibility. What Hajiri gets is a lot more than he bargained for when the young man shows him what it means to be a battlepet’s Master.
Contains graphic sexual encounters between men, strong D/s themes, toys, spanking and violence.
I do not think there is a good way to do such a thing. It always comes off as half-assed and way beyond any suspending of disbelief--and I'm good at suspending. I would have to be, some of the crap I write. I hate when people try too hard in general to build a society and all around elaborate sexual things like this. Forced, half-assed, and everything else. I've never bought a single one.
...I obviously just need to go find another way to cheer myself up. The ebook method is just not working tonight.
Still, it's high on the list of things that bug me to fucking death. It just does not work. I just don't see it as a society that would work well for very long. To design such a society that puts so much emphasis on such things, and more or less revolves around them...would take a lot more work than anyone is ever going to give it, since we all know the real point of such stories is all the smut and bdsm crap that can be shoved into them. The most crucial piece would be the reason that a society would develop in such a way. People always skip that--why does a culture behave the way it does? What made the current norm necessary once upon a time? If that question was answered, something fascinating could probably be done. But no one ever does. It's always just a smut fest.
