Eclipse smiled as he walked, heading to Cadence's room. He was in a rather pleasant mood today, and seeing as Sun was busy poring over a book and Moon was busy working, Eclipse decided he would bug Cadence.
He opened the door, seeing Cadence standing in front of a full-length mirror that leaned against the door to her closet.
"And then like, mlemmmmmm, you so cuuuuute," she cooed at her reflection, holding a black leash and lightly pulling at it, wearing a bright purple collar on her neck with a small golden tag on it. She was relaxed, cooing at herself like one would a dog or baby.
"You the bessssst," She cooed, "I should do this more often! No one can see you anyway!"
While she had been cooing at herself, Eclipse had moved behind her, Cadence seemingly not noticing his presence as she was so absorbed in affirming herself.
"I can see you," Eclipse purred, grabbing her leash and wrapping it around his knuckles as he gently tugged it to get her attention on him.
She made a loud whine sound in her throat as she looked at him with wide eyes, her right hand immediately covering the tag.
"YOU SAW NOTHING," she growled, her left hand trying to quickly unbuckle the collar as she looked shocked.
"Oh, but I did," Eclipse purred, his lower right hand resting on top of her left hand and preventing her from taking off the collar, "Seems the sweet little submissive switch has a bit of a kink for petplay~"
"I do not!" She squeaked, jerking back but making a 'grk' sound as the collar lightly choked her.
"Oh, darling, then why do you have a collar?" He purred, gently pulling her closer, "You're already a glutton for praise, and you're quite submissive in nature." He chuckled, "Seems logical you would enjoy such a thing. How about you be a good girl and tell me the truth?"
She inhaled sharply, looking at him with wide eyes. "No," she breathed.
Eclipse chuckled, eyes turning into crescents in his mirth. "Fair enough," he purred, pulling her closer, "You're so shy. Which reminds me..." His lower pair of hands grabbed her hips and picked her up, bringing her closer to him. "Now that I'm in my right mind, we should discuss your boundaries."
Her head jerked back, looking surprised. "You remember talking about that?" She asked.
"Yes, I do," he purred, holding her close as he walked over to the bed, "And we need to discuss this. It may be uncomfortable, but it would be much better to exercise your communication muscles than risk me doing something that could make you resent me or feel uncomfortable."
He sat down on the bed, having her straddle his hips. "Any trigger words or topics? Where do you hate being touched? Do you hate certain activities? You can't put it off forever, Cadence."
He gently kissed her forehead, his lower pair of hands gently kneading her hips.
She blinked, silent for a moment before shrugging and saying, "Well, uh, I don't have any trigger words. I don't like my sides being poked out of nowhere. I punch."
"Good girl," he purred, and she exhaled heavily as she shrunk in on herself, eyes widening. "See, it isn't too bad. Now we know not to poke your sides," he purred, kissing the top of her head, "Any topics you don't want to talk about?"
She curled in on herself, looking to the side. When she didn't respond, Eclipse smiled and cupped her chin, tilting her head back to look at him.
"We don't have to talk about that now," he purred, giving her lips a chaste peck, "In due time. But I'm so proud of your progress so far. Such a good girl~"
She shrunk in on herself again, her face squishing as she didn't meet his gaze.
"Speaking of good girls," Eclipse said softly, smirking smugly, "Knowing you have a bit of a pet play kink, I know a great nightclub I would love to take you to."
"I don't have a pet play kink," she muttered petulantly.
"Sure," Eclipse said, not believing her.
