No, it wasn’t attainable, but no one could say I wasn’t pushing out of my comfort zone. I’d paid attention when Erika said something about that a couple of months ago. Being her newest pet project didn’t feel great, but it came with some highlights.

I have more conditions

Before I send you the list and actually agree to shit

OldSchoolDS

Language, pup.

What are these conditions?

PupJ

I ask my questions first

OldSchoolDS

All right.

When my phone had buzzed again—all the constant texting from people checking in day in and out took more getting used to than I would’ve thought—I hadn’t expected that text. I certainly hadn’t expected his condition being something I’d already taken for granted.

The air fryer pinged as my food was done, so I didn’t elaborate or wait to see what he had to ask. I ignored how I almost lost my grip on the basket because my hands were clamming up from nerves. Jaime was rather unpredictable. I imagined it would be worse via text. He had even less barriers to just ask whatever went through his head.

What are your thoughts on nonbinary folks? asking for me

What was the deal with the contract with Marga and Jen exactly, and why does it sound like you were trying to reenact 50SoG? asking that last part in the most offensive way possible

How do you hypothetically feel about bottoming?

Have you ever been with a trans person before?

This is more personal but whatever, why did you never come out to any of us? you hung out with us, so surely you weren’t disgusted by queerness

How do you feel about boba tea, and potentially supplying it (to me)?

If you were to host a workshop on something, what would it be? (if you say old school DS, I’m going to be severely disappointed by the lack of thought put into it)

What’s something that turns you on that most people wouldn’t guess?

What’s a kink you completely suck at?

If you were to be with a bunch of (human) pups, what treats would you give for good behavior?

I blinked, several times. It seemed like he’d stopped typing, but I gave it a few minutes. I took the time to reread the wall of text a couple of times, too. I hadn’t expected ten questions in a row, or this lack of order.

The latter bothered me more than the audacity of some of those questions.

Your fancy private university doesn’t teach you how to structure an interview?

PupJ

I choose chaos
