This, like several of my recent caps, started out as just an obscura. It was actually a productive day... I created both "Learning the Girl's Way" and "Her New Project" that same morning. But this image set still remained for my perusal. This set caught my attention originally at X-Art, as I have a membership there and I remember thinking it would be a fine set for a submission story. But nothing came to mind at the time so I let it pass.
Then Monday morning came. It was a day off, I was in a particularly 'Caitlyn' mood and the image spoke out to me. Sure, I could have used one of these images:
But I really loved the look on the girl's face as she stoicly looked forward. The person behind her was almost an afterthought... and that's where it hit me. Would a 'guy' in a bodysuit think that if he was expecting a Mistress?
So I wrote the story out and left the fact that Tara had set him up with a Master to be told by the image. It's not a complex story, nor is it a particularly well designed cap, but I had fun doing it. Oh, I should add that one design path I went down was to make both the title and the text box pink (like in the header graphic), but I thought it would work better if only the rope had that bright pink look. I think it helps emphasize just how powerless our new girl is, and what a surprise she's going to be in for. It did look good in pink, so I gave half of it by letting it stay in the header graphic.
I hope you like it. This will be sitting in the que until Friday. I MAY go through and edit it if I get the chance... if I do, I'll include any original material in this post.

Well it's posting day and I did edit this a bit. But really it was more of a polish. Remove a sentence here, add an exclamation mark there. Nothing that I'm going to clutter up this post with. I did want to add this... after a few days in the que, I'm not quite as happy with this. The story just feels... weak. I struggled a little to hard in the third paragraph to hid the gender of the 'dominant' and that shows through. I'm not sure I emphasized enough Tara's idea of what 'everything she experienced' including sex with the same gender... and even if I did it would be a stretch as he's going to acting the part of a girl in a boy/girl sexcapade.
I think the story COULD be salavaged, but most of what I had written would need to be trashed. I would need to start with a blank slate. The core idea is good (at least I still think so), but the executions is just bland. A sexually experienced woman convincing her fairly straight laced lover to experience several world expanding experiences... submission, femininity, having a male sexual partner.
The picture works, the design is standard (not a bad thing, but not a reason to love it), and the story is weak. I think I'd give this a C+. I hope you get the gist of what I was going after and enjoy my intent.
