Ancient thrills awakened

An intriguing blend of spooky sci-fi (with hints of Lovecraft?), light blackmail, sexy exhibitionism and body-mod/inner slut transformation. With the tantalizing pace and just the right tone of adventurous archness, this makes for a spellbinding erotic exploration!

Hadn't thought about a Lovecraft type of connection before

Thanks! I hadn't thought of a Lovecraft type of connection before but I can totally see that. I think there is a lot more going on in this story than most people are used to so I'm glad you are picking up on the different layers. Thanks for the careful read and comments.

Hmm...say what?

Let me see if I got this straight. Sue gets herself impaled on her first experiment? In over her head, so to speak.

Then a short time after, she inserts an ultra-modern sex device of complex machinery and not understood instructions up her aching cunt?

First time, crazy wicked ...second time, just plain crazy!

I didn't to the best job with passage of time with this story (it's my first). I didn't intend for the impalement to be a "first experiment" kind of thing, but rather something that comes about after she gradually starts to use the chair more and more over time. The idea was more that she falls a bit under it's spell so to speak.

The squid/high-tech vibrator was intended to be more of a case that she never in her wildest dreams thought it would be something as sophisticated as that. I probably didn't sell that point well enough.

That's what's good about different readers with different perspectives. Thanks for sharing the comments. I don't think those particular aspects of the story ever came out to me when writing it and I've never had anyone say anything about them before. Something for me to think about in future stories.

uhhmmm, please allow me to rephrase...

dear n2m, my comment about this story was definitely not meant as a criticism for either this story or your writing skills.

Not only do I admire your style but also your imagineering of this plotline. And I am enjoying the 'Curator' in a sort of squicky guilty pleasure sort of way.

Every chapter is a surprise as you reveal the cast of characters and all their secrets.

I am impressed how you manage to give a novel and refreshing renaissance to all those tiresome, cliched memes about aliens and the supernatural and other trivial nonsense that infests pop culture.

No worries, I never mind feedback that seems to come from a good place and is something that I can use, but I do like to explain myself in return. It makes me feel better, but I also feel like it can lead to an additional exchange of useful feedback. I hope I didn't sound like I was trying to be defensive.

Sometimes it's hard to tell when a commenter is taking a shot, teasing, being sarcastic or what not. I wasn't entirely sure how to interpret that one at face value, but saw your other comments were supportive so I didn't take it negatively. When not sure, I try to take comments optimistically in general. It's pretty easy for things to come across the wrong way with such short responses on the web and most people who want to say something mean do it anonymously. We're cool.

Thanks for your supportive and complimentary comments. I don't get any feedback except for comments so it really helps my motivation and fragile writer's ego. :-)

I'm very happy when other people get where I'm coming from and what I was trying to do with this story. Sounds like you "get it."

Brilliant

Year after year I keep coming back to this story, for some reason. One of the best.
