Shino stared at the lines of text on her computer screen, moving her leg restlessly as she read through the entire piece again. It was thorough, it was formatted, and she had checked it for errors multiple times. The review was ready to be uploaded.

And yet she was still hesitating. Once she put this out, people would know. All her readers and followers would know she played a bondage simulation, quite a lot even, and gave it a positive review score.

She wasn't scared of losing some followers or being called out, that happened often enough. There were always people who wouldn't agree with her and take the whole thing too seriously. So it wasn't the backlash she was wary of. This was more personal.

She was about to put something out there that revealed something about her personality, about personal experiences, about something that didn't have anything to do with the usual topics of her work and yet it had found its way here.

Still, the alternative was to miss this week's schedule and to keep something she had researched so thoroughly to herself. Not to mention Suguha would notice. She did say that she was looking forward to reading it before they had signed off the day before.

After that long talk about not being ashamed of what you enjoy.

Shino took a deep breath and clicked the Submit button at the bottom of the page. It was done. Within the first couple of minutes, countless people would have already read it and it was irreversible.

She closed the page and went to her social media pages to advertise the new review. After all, might as well go all in now.

Looking good, Sinonon~
Feel better?

Lisbeth 15:27
Damn, girl. That was a surprise, but you do you~<3

Asuna 16:14
I didn't expect to see something like this from you.
But I'm glad you feel comfortable writing about this kind of thing.
I'm proud of you.



Besides the expected reactions, there was a surprising amount of positivity, especially from her friends. She expected Suguha to tell her something encouraging, but seeing the same from Rika and Asuna was an uplifting bonus.

There were even requests of a full review of the retail version, and expressed interest of checking out the product, which stirred a feeling of pride in Shino, though mixed with some confusion. Was she going to be responsible for a lot of people's... private time?

She looked up from her phone and over at the Amusphere™ lying on her bed. The last few hours had sure been stressful. Luckily she had just the right thing for it.



It was very easy to lose track of time, even going through just the same simple simulations again and again. Spending a few minutes to escape one scenario, spending a few more completely helpless in another, eventually it stacked up.

It had gotten very late without Shino noticing and she still didn't feel entirely fulfilled. A repeat of playful scenarios wasn't what she needed. It was time to come back to the one thing she had kept putting off.

She wasn't surprised that Suguha was still up. Nor that she joined her so quickly in the lobby room. They hugged and sat on the simulated couch before talking.

"I'm amazed with your professionalism every time. I love reading your reviews every time, even without the memories attached to this one."

Shino returned Suguha's bright smile to a lesser extent. "Speaking of, there is still something left untested. It wasn't necessary for the review, but I don't like leaving things unfinished."

"Then let's go. I'm all yours."

Shino's smile grew slightly. "Sure you are." She opened a game invitation and sent it over to her.

Free Game - RED



Their feet touched a dark, laminated wood floor, laid out across a spacious room, with the walls painted in warm colours and a low ceiling.

There were no visible windows, but it was still well-lit from several lamps in the corners. Instead, the walls were covered with thin coloured cloths, giving the room a welcoming, comfortable feel.

This decoration was occasionally broken up by metal rings set into the walls and ceiling, as well as two full-length wall-mounted mirrors. Some chairs and armchairs stood towards the sides of the room, and a large four-poster bed stood against one wall, leaving the middle mostly open. There were no toy or tool racks since, thanks to the full access menu, they weren't necessary.

"Moody.", Suguha noted with a smirk, looking around. "Well then, let's get started."

She swiped her index finger downwards in front of her, as the universal motion the Amusphere™ would detect as the menu command, but nothing happened. She tried a second time and a third, but the result was the same.

"Um, Shino? My menu doesn't work."

"Of course it doesn't.", Shino said casually, opening her own. "Didn't you look at the invitation?"

Suguha turned around, only now looking at the avatar Shino had appeared in this room in. She was slightly older, better matching her actual age, her hair slightly longer and properly braided at the sides of her face. She wore glasses again, slim with a barely noticeable frame, the menu items reflecting in the lenses. Her modest street clothes had been replaced with a tight, strap-less, almost corset-like leather top, tight shorts, thigh-high stockings, and, most surprisingly of all, high-heeled lace-up boots.

"Take off your pants.", she instructed simply, pretending she was still looking at the menu while she peeked over at her friend, her heart pounding in her chest. Suguha still had the right to refuse and she wouldn't hold it against her, but she hoped for her boldness to be rewarded.

Suguha licked her lips nervously, but her shocked surprise quickly disappeared in favour of an excited smile. She undid her belt and stepped out of her pants, leaving them on the floor.

Shino swallowed quietly, pulling herself together to keep playing the role. She put her hand on Suguha's shoulder and roughly turned her around before walking her to one of the mirrors, one hand on her back.

"Stay. And be quiet.", she commanded as she retrieved a black leather collar from the menu, two inches wide, with a metal ring attached to the front. Staying behind Suguha, she gently fastened it around her neck, pulling it tight slowly.

Suguha watched her own reflection, her eyes flicking up to look at Shino's occasionally, but stood straight and still, quiet as ordered. She saw her retrieve a second item from the menu, a much bigger one, an armbinder made from the same leather.

Knowing what was expected of her, Suguha put her arms behind her, waiting as Shino slipped the piece over them and crossed the straps above her chest, pulling them tight and locking the restraint in place.

The silence still stretched, building tension. Shino hadn't said another word and her expression was stoic as well. This confidence was very different from what she had shown in the past couple of days. This wasn't the adorably flustered Shino, it wasn't even game-face Shino, it was something else entirely.

A third item was produced, but instead of leather, this one was a thin black cloth, which Shino folded several times to make it thicker, before holding it on two ends in front of Suguha's face, letting her know what was coming before laying it over her eyes and tying it off behind her head.

Finally, with Suguha's vision taken, Shino allowed herself a moment to drop the facade. She was good at acting confident, but her heart was still going crazy in her chest. She stared at the reflection, seeing Suguha blinded and collared, shifting her shoulders and testing the way her arms were restrained.

She swallowed and licked her lips, moving a little closer and placing her arms around her from behind, pulling her back against her chest.

"How are you feeling?", she asked quietly, genuinely, without the fake confidence.

"Hot.", Suguha whispered with a smile. "Don't leave me hanging, I still need more."

Shino smiled before moving one hand down, slipping the fingertips under the edge of her panties. "A lot more?"

"A lot more...", Suguha confirmed quietly, shuddering slightly.

Shino swallowed again. She had gotten this far. She could do this. Putting one finger into the ring on her sub's collar, she pulled her along as she walked to the middle of the room again.

"If you want more, then you need to tell me what you want.", she said strictly, putting her mask back on. "And don't be cheeky about it."

"Aww, but I'm so good at that!"

Shino smiled to herself again. Either she knew exactly how to play along, or she had predicted her answer with surprising accuracy. She opened the menu to interact with the room, choosing one of the rings on the ceiling above them and making a chain appear, hanging from it.

"I said no being cheeky.", she said sternly, giving Suguha a light slap on the ass, making her jump in surprise.

Her surprise turned to another smile and she stuck out her butt a little. "Please, Miss, may I have some more?"

Shino bit her lip and extended the length of the chain, making it long enough to comfortably take the end of the chain and hook it into the ring on the end of Suguha's armbinder. Not giving her an answer yet, she used the menu to retract the chain again, making it pull Suguha's arms up behind her back, forcing her to bend over, sticking her backside out even further.

"I said..." She raised her hand and let it come down hard on Suguha's ass, making her yelp. "No being cheeky!"



The chain pulled her arms up so far she had to bend over, feeling her hair at the side of her face. She was blindfolded but even with her sight, there would have been little to see but the floor.

Shino continued hitting her, alternating cheeks, pausing after a few times before continuing in the same pattern. Suguha's surprised yelps turned to quiet whimpers and soft moans with time, feeling a familiar warmth growing between her legs.

She had already stopped counting when Shino's steps came across the wood, walking around her. Her fingers laced into Suguha's hair and pulled up her head, presumably to look at her, though she couldn't see her in return.

"Are you done with talking back now?" Shino's stern voiced almost made Suguha wince again. She loved the blushy little cutie she had been growing closer to recently, but the intense energy she was giving off now was nothing to complain about either.

"Yes, Miss.", she answered quietly, shifting her bare feet on the wood nervously. The pain was still very present, or rather the firm pressure she had learn to interpret as pain in the simulation. It was easy enough to get lost in it to feel it stinging for real.

"Good. So, what do you want?"

Suguha swallowed again. Shino was doing this for her, wasn't she? Working past her timid self to show her how far she would go with her, after all the hesitation. Why not test the waters further, then?

"Please fuck me, Miss."

There was a pause before Shino let go of her hair and her head sunk again. The tense silence continued for at least a few more seconds.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Miss."

More silence. Maybe she asked for too much? Maybe she shouldn't push that far, she was already pushing herself after all.

"Fine." Shino grabbed her hair again and yanked her head back, further than before, making Suguha gasp softly. Using that reaction, Shino forced something in her open mouth, a thick rubber ball, pushing it behind her teeth to fill out her mouth completely, though she didn't feel any straps tugging at the corners of her lips. Instead, the ripping of unravelling tape cut through the quiet and soon it clung to her cheeks and lips as Shino wrapped it around her head twice, smoothing it out.

Suguha moaned, testing the gag, finding it to absorb almost all of it. She listened for Shino's steps, her heels making noise on the wood, as she walked around her again. Her fingers brushed over the stinging ass cheeks, suddenly seizing her panties and pulling on them, but not to pull them off. They ripped loudly, suddenly allowing air to cling to her wet crotch.

Suguha shuddered and instinctively pressed her thighs together. Maybe she didn't think this through far enough herself. The chain suddenly released her armbinder and she stumbled not to suddenly fall forward. As soon as she was upright again, there was another tug at her collar and she followed it blindly.

They stopped again, a few steps away, Shino's hand pushing against her chest to indicate her to wait. She listened intently, her body shaking in anticipation. When there was another pull at the collar, she carefully moved forward again, her shins hitting something soft. At Shino's silent urging, she raised her legs, putting her knees on the armchair, between Shino's thighs and the armrests.

Her hands firmly seized Suguha's hips. "Are you sure this is what you want?"

Her voice was gentle again, hesitant even. Concern, not for herself, but for her friend. Or whatever they were now.

Suguha tried to swallow, but her saliva instead just found a small opening to run down her chin. She nodded with a muffled hum.

"Okay..." Shino gently guided her hips down onto the waiting strap-on toy...

Shino!, Suguha moaned out in her mind, all of her other thought melting away over the next minutes, leaving her in a passionate fever.
