Hm..but I already bought a prickle of baby porcupines from Craigslist... But we can negotiate. You wear the cushioned itchy pad in your underwear for three days before you come back for a session, and I'll make sure that you get the runt of the litter. The hooked quills of the runt will surely be very soft

ittybitty, Have you tried Airbnb.com?

I just got a new body lotion. It's called "Belladonna". Who wants to give me a tongue bath?!?

Still on the search of a soft cushioned pad impregnated with itching powder, but may have to settle for this porcupine I found.

Noted.

Hello hornydevil, This is a very specific fetish indeed. I think it has a practical purpose as well. It's also known as a "tongue bath" and I sometimes demand it from my subs. Especially after a sweaty day. What's creepy about that?

theotherone and wayne, I think that the Fortress is very much like a Love Hotel in some ways. We provide a safe place for you to let your freak flag fly! And what a relief it is to not have to hide it, even if it's only for a few hours at a time.

danb, Next time, we'll turn you into a Roman candle Thanks for the review, we had a great time!

What a remarkably absurd scene from the movie of your life. I would pay a couple of dollars to watch it.

It was simply called "Love Hotels" by Misty Keasler

I couldn't agree more. Well said, loveinthetimeofcollaring.

Seriously, I think we have our work cut out for us, and that the quality of our ladies has elevated to the capacity to actually help our subs in more ways than just satisfying their kinky/masochistic cravings. Because of the influence of many of our wonderful ladies, I have seen subs lose weight, grow a spine, shed unwanted proverbial baggage, and even get a new lease on life! It's pretty awesome.

heya loveinthetimeofcollaring, (awesome name, by the way) So you like your cupcakes heavy on the vanilla, hm? :-P I'm looking forward to treating you like my own sweet little cupcake. Or maybe I'll use you like an oven and see how many cupcakes you can bake at one time. The possibilities are endless with the cupcake analogy, save the vanilla part. There will be no vanilla happening See you soon!

It's a particularly important distinction to know what you feel like after a session. I definitely can vouch for that energized feeling after certain sessions that feel very synergetic and connected. And of course, after some sessions I'm drained and braindead because of the energy vampism during the session. Thanks for reminding me of that distinction, wayne

Tamburlaine, It sure was fun getting to briefly join in on the hootenanny happening in your room. Perhaps next time you come to visit our sweet little city, we can have a little one-on-one tickle time

Fred, I am not dismissing, but simply categorizing the bible into the classification of "stories and fables involving metaphor and allegory which people (and children) can learn from" instead of being taken as the "word of God". Does this make more sense? Times were much different then, and as humans, we have evolved in ways the earlier humans couldn't imagine (like with our technological feats). But the human condition remains relatively similar, albeit slightly more complex. So I agree with you that a student of philosophy or psychology definitely needs to build his comprehensive repertoire of knowledge from the ground up.

You get me, Mistress Fei :-*

Elongating the size? Of what? ;-P

*especially* if you're about to get 12-inch-dildo raped. Because you would have to breathe and relax to let it all in!!!

heya squirtwhale! I think your perspective on being very present and connected during times of heightened fear are spot on. Your senses become sharper as your adrenalin kick in and it's like having superpower senses. I think that these circumstances that call for our heightened awareness are special in that they can help you bring a little bit of it into your daily life, just at a slightly lower dose. And this lower dose of heightened awareness is what I call Mindfulness. The meditation you speak of is also a way to bring this kind of awareness into daily life, at the prescribed lower dosage

Gone Girl was very enjoyable! That David Fincher, he can make a film! But regarding mFei's inquiry of the sociological experiment of being manipulated through media.. We are all in this sociological experiment together. Even the ones who do not participate, which may be called the Control Group. But I believe that this manipulation is often to our benefit, as we continue to grow as humans who can see beyond the puppet show and sever our own strings to the detriment of the media moguls making millions off the sheep. But as the Control Group may be the ones who refuse to participate are left behind, it's the journey through the media circus that allows us to rise above and learn from it. I see a return to widespread amateur media and hand-made goods. I see the media circus blowing its own fuse soon, too, as we return to the values that we all know to be true.

What a wonderful inquiry, Mistress Fei. I love the opportunity to be thoughtful and reflective in my posts. The idea of feeling truly connected (to the source) and present in life is a practice I put under the umbrella of Mindfulness. This is contingent on nothing, it is an attitude and conscientiousness that pervades my daily moments as much as I remain open and present. I am mindful when I am preparing for a session as well as doing the dishes and watering my plants. The feeling of being connected also relates to being "in the flow" or "in the zone" and as time disappears, my true purpose in life channels through me. But in the particular instance of having sessions at the Fortress, I also strive for connections and presence as much as possible, although there are still times when the synergy does not happen. That doesn't mean that the quality of the session is diminished, it simply becomes a different type of session. I remember a singular client not too long ago, one I had never seen before. He came in quietly but left an indelible impression that surprised me. As I entered the room, I had a vision of this client playing a trumpet. As the session concluded, I asked him about his vocation and he said that he was in the city to play music. I asked him if he played trumpet and that was the very instrument he came to NYC to play that evening. There have also been a handful of other clients with whom I've felt instant connections with. The connections are seemingly mental, but I feel them to also be energetic. Some even feel like familiar people, as if we knew each other in past lives. This is how I know I am present and mindful. These energies register in my senses as subtle and imperceptible to many, but clear and unwavering to me.

Love Hotels are a healthy and safe place to express your less common desires and I think the Japanese are so on point with providing a place to do so. When I first discovered them through a photography book that a friend put out, I was amazed! Our little three-room "love hotel" comes with a playmate!

Hi mikey! Aw, thanks for all your kind, sweet compliments! I would SO love to play a badass in a Hollywood movie! And get fast-track trained in martial arts or sword fighting! Looking forward to seeing you in December (my birth month!)

Hi Milkdud! I agree with you that this article simply puts science behind the age-old practice of mind alteration/expansion/transformation. From what I can recall, it's the basis for self-flagellation, a practice used by monks to achieve an altered state And very soon, my little Mild Dud, we'll be coming into the space of altered states through pain. Hope you've been very bad! Because I do love to make you hurt!
