How a spanking should be? That depends, but often I like it rather long. I get disappointed when I work my way through a long build up and it then ends with a "and then he/she was spanked". I want details. Most of all I like it when there's a lot of emotions flashing through the spankees mind in response to the spanking. It can be half a page between each slap, describing the turmoil in the head of the person getting his/her rear fried. Anger, frustration, regret, self-pity, I want it all and I want to read about the progress through the storm until the spankee has reached the intended mental state that the spanker was looking for. And I don't mind if the bottom is described as shiny red, glossy, beaming like a setting sun, buttocks like two glowing domes standing over a city on fire, fire-engine red, like two ripe tomatoes, like plums, a volcano eruption, a storm of arrows shooting from the center of the rear and up the spine making the brain explode, buttocks like polished cherries, striped like tram-lines, ridges of agony running from one side of the burning landscape to the other, a screaming red shining like a lighthouse penetrating the dark making it glow as if the planet is about to fall into the sun, like a white-hot star, so hot that you could fry eggs on bare flesh, swollen to twice the original size unable to fit in the pants again, about to burn through the back of the pants, hot enough to set the seat of the chair on fire, radiating a heat strong enough to warm a ballroom in the middle the Siberian winter, making the water in the sink boil as the rear is lowered into the water. I like vivid parables, which I guess some of you might have noticed already if you have read some of my my contributions. Well, I could go on for quite a while here, but I think you get the idea. It sort of adds to the description of the experience of the spankees, when they feel as if something like that is happening, even if he/she knows that it's only in the mind. I've read well over 2000 stories here and it's just as great every time, as long as the emotions are there. If a bottom is red after a spanking, I want to read that it's red to get into the mood. I don't mind if I've read the same phrasing hundreds of times. To me, it's just as good every time. It's the story leading up to the spanking that matters. The actual spanking is of course the peak, but it's the road to get there that builds up to the climactic moment that does it. I don't mind if the same words describing the spanking return often, as long as the spanking is thoroughly described. I don't like spankings that are over the top though. The spanking can be mind-shattering in the mind of the spankee, but I don't like if it leaves any actual damage, beyond a few stripes. However, to make the plot in many of my mistaken identity stories work, many of the spankings I've described might seem rather harsh and long. Having said that, most of my stories with many favs happen to be exactly the ones with very long, intense and often excessive spankings that would never work in real life. |
