Dirty Sheets

*Snerk* *ahem* Actually, I could, if I was feeling up to explaining to my mother what I was doing. And… well.

What brought this on, you ask? I was innocently reading Sadly, No!, and in the comments was a link to Spartacus Leathers. At SL, there are a number of items to purchase, and so I just kind of randomly chose ‘nipple clamps’. There, I further delved into the ‘decorative‘ types, and discovered nipple clamps with bells. Looking at the larger picture, I realized that their clamps were merely bodkins (top row, third from left is the kind I’m most familiar with), tipped with little rubber covers and with bells on.

…so, yeah, I could make those. And I could make them prettier, and more personal… *Ponder* Hm, I wonder if sterling could be used to make the bodkin part… Weld a jumpring shut on it, so it wouldn’t bend and fall off, and you have something.

Not a horse named “Berkley”, not horses in Berkely (California or England), and not random pictures of porn stars used to illustrate articles that are no more than copy-and-paste jobs from WikiPedia.

There’s an entire Jonathan Gash book that hinges on a Berkley Horse — The Grace In Older Women — and ever since I read it I’ve wondered exactly what they look like. I have a fair idea, but being a visual person, I’d like to make sure my mental picture(s) and reality mesh.

Now, spanking or birching horses are easily found. Of course, I’m not feeling tip-top right this second, so it’s entirely possible that I’m just not looking hard enough/digging far enough into GIS. I did find one small picture, though, here (pictures/content at link is NSFW*), but I’d like something larger/more detailed.

All right, I think I’m going to try going back to sleep and see if that helps me feel better.

* Though if you’re reading _this_ blog at work, then the other probably won’t be a problem, either. Which, of course, makes me wonder where you work…

Yes, it’s time for more Finch/Herbert! They’re a couple of busy little perverts… Or rather, Finch is perverted and Herbert isn’t as unhappy about being dragged into things as he says he is. Twits. Anyhow.

Author’s Notes:
- Because they Finch wouldn’t shut up about The Discussion
- Because Kes/Dyth and Pers/Cordialis are being entirely too shy
- Yes, they are really really incredibly lucky. And STRANGE. But mostly lucky.

Warnings:
- Not finished, because I can’t seem to find the right words. I’ve got some new ambient music, so maybe that’ll help.
- Lots of bad language
- SEX (should I even bother with this warning any more?)
- Finch being, well, Finch. You’ll know it when you see it.
- …that’s about it, actually.

You know what to do.
