Stories of Tie Up Games

BlissfulMisery Thanks! Sorry I took so long to get back to you.

I think the effort of including footnotes was worth it. It was a fun way to include multiple perspectives in the story. The captor's perspective in the narration, the player's in the foot notes.

But having multiple age and gender ...

AlexUSA3 - Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

FelixSH - Thanks for the bug report! It should be fixed.

You're right that most of the stories are similar. I intended for them to all be the same overall story, just with details changed to reflect the age differences. But, the elementary school route was ...

This is a little experiment I started working on a long time ago. I was trying to see if I could solve the problem of many peoples' attention span being too short for long-form stories. Not judging, I include myself in this.

Part of it was inspired by ...

Pretty interesting. Hope to see more.

I kind of like this style of dialogue-only story. It's easier to read through, and leaves more to the imagination. I've been trying to outline my future stories this way.

I really want to thank Mineira1986 and BlissfulMisery for giving me excellent feedback during the writing process on this one! I also want to thank AlexUSA3 for (unknowingly) influencing my decision to break my pattern of going back and forth between Singing Laura and Sweet Becky and just focus on ...

Chapter 21

Singing Laura was beginning to wonder if she'd ever have a friendly encounter in this game. She raised her hands cautiously, giving Pretty Polly a sideways glance.

"Turn around, slowly," commanded the voice.

Tension coursed through Singing Laura's body. Her body was telling her to ...

I suspect some of the desire to cross-dress for men is actually borne of a sort of subconscious jealousy (this is too harsh a word for what I mean, but I cannot think of a better fitting English word right now). Namely the fact that for straight men, women are the 'center of attention'. Society ...

Not familiar with the show, but just going on the basic idea of an unsolved mystery show, what if the next victim is featured while still in captivity? The show presents pictures and videos sent by the kidnapper to taunt the family, and maybe the kidnapper even sets up a live video interview.

Or ...

Some well-deserved comeuppance! I can't help but notice a bit of a tonal shift in the story. The first chapter seemed to be play the bondage really seriously, as something that could potentially cause actual harm. But over time, things got a bit more light-hearted, with Mrs. Pulaski allowing Joyce ...

Here it is, almost a year later! Thank you to the people who continued to express interest in the story over its long hiatus.

I think one of the reasons I had so much trouble with it is I was trying to hard to make the plot fit a certain plan. Throughout most of this story, I've just been ...

Chapter 20 [/b]

"So you really think they'll let us through, after everything that happened yesterday?" asked Singing Laura as the sunny meadows of Rosewater faded into the shadows of the Brightleaf Forest.

Pretty Polly waved her hand dismissively from atop her grey pinto, whose name Singing ...

This is kind of up my alley thematically. Interesting mix of immaturity and peril. I can't wait to see how Joyce gets out of this one.

Appreciate the interest! I haven't given up on it completely, but I've had a lot of other things on my mind lately. Thank you for the reminder though. I know there are others waiting for a conclusion. I can't promise I'll get back to it soon, but hopefully I will eventually.

That's quite a predicament that George has been left in! I'm really enjoying this series. It's nice to see the variety of creative situations you can put the poor boy through. Looking forward to Kidnappings 7 and 8. Wonder if you're planning on delivering on the "various" kidnappers any time soon ...

Wow, you're really on a role with these. I wanted to comment on chapter 2, but didn't get around to it until now when I see you've already posted chapter 3.

I like the change in pace. Shorter chapters with a softer (bit still pretty intense!) situation. Love the banter between the two. I'm just ...

I'll second A.

Thanks everyone! I'm glad you all enjoyed this chapter. I struggled with writer's block about it for a long time, so I'm glad it turned out pretty decently. I think what threw me off is I was trying to give each story a "purpose" in the overall plot. Once I started thinking of them as standalone ...

Thank you, everyone, for the kind comments and interest in George's exploits. This is only a shorter part but wraps up this kidnapping. Let me know whether you want to read about George's next kidnapping next, or an earlier one.


My vote goes for earlier. It might be fun to see him when he's ...

Chapter 19

Deirdre felt disoriented. She wasn't sure if she would ever get used to hopping between worlds so casually, nor for the eerie feeling of refreshment she felt upon waking. Her hand fumbled for the latch on her sleep pod, and she swung her body onto the carpeted floor.

Deirdre took a ...

I love the idea of a boy who's just cursed to be kidnapped over and over. Will there be more?

Well, I thought a lot of Courtney's backstory was just characterization for the sake of characterization, so it surprised me that it turned out to be plot-relevant. It also surprised me that the story dealt with themes of abuse and mental trauma, and managed to navigate the emotions so well.

(Me and Alex and the others involved continued the conversation privately, so that's why I'm not responding to their post right now.)

[mention]acetic[/mention] - Always a pleasure to see a new reader! As you said, it's too late to be counted, but I'm glad to hear the interest in those characters ...

Finally got caught up. Did not expect from the first two chapters that this story would go so hard and heavy, but you did it in a tasteful way. Details that I thought were just character-development turned out to be plot-relevant. I'm pretty impressed!

Interesting point about the game being mandatory. That is, of course, a contrivance necessary to make the story work, but it also touches on the themes we've been discussing.

The game wouldn't be as exciting, to either the players or the audience, if the players could just opt out of all the bad ...
