Ah, but "overdue" and "undeserved" have more in common than just both being adjectives. As KatiePie pointed out, they both start with vowels. Even more important to the feel & flow of the words, though, is that they're both composed of a base adjective that starts with a D (due, deserved) plus a negative prefix (over, un) which flips the meaning. If you want the stories to really sound like they form a series, it's this quality which I'd suggest trying to replicate for #3.
With that in mind, my top pick would be: indecent -- It fits the above, plus starts with a vowel, but a new one, so that it doesn't sound repetitive, plus it has a natural association with punishment & spanking, like the words "overdue" and "undeserved" and should lead to lots of possibilities for a story, perhaps playing up the embarrassment or humiliation angle.
Some other options that I think could make for a good story include: undignified, undemocratic, indiscreet, indefinite, undisclosed, indiscriminate, undressed, indoctrination*, induction*, undeterring (or undeterred), undeliverable, indefensible, overdramatic, undeviating, endorsed*, indispensable, interdisciplinary, incidental*, undiscussed, indecorous, undesirable, indulgent*, endearing*, undaunting
Finally, some other adjectives that fit the pattern, but would be more of a stretch to turn into a story include: indisputable, indelible, indifferent, independent, undeniable, indirect, indistinct, indolent, endured* (or enduring), indecisive, indelicate, indescribable, underdressed, overdone, indebted, indecisive, indecipherable, indicative*, indisposed, induced (or inducing), indubitable, indistinguishable, interdependent
Good luck & happy writing!
*Note: Some of these actually don't quite fit the pattern, but they sound enough like they do to stretch it. |
