Colgate's Entertainment Entry #6

Anonymous asked colgates-entertainment:
We've seen positive reinforcement now, and thank you for showing us. But what about punishment? How do you punish a masochist?
Anonymous asked colgates-entertainment:
Doctor, you could try wrapping Berry up in bandages so she can't move and then cut her out again. You'll cut her as well of course, but maybe she'll learn that the cuts are part of a good thing then. You may need to tie her in some other way too, so she won't run away once the bandages are off.

Another idea would be coating Berry in something really itchy. Then, instead of scratching her, you cut her. Berry will associate the relief she gets with the cutting. Do it often enough and she'll enjoy the cutting even without the itchy part, by dint of sheer pavlovian response.

"How do you punish a masochist?" Colgate smiled looking away for a moment before looking back. "You don't." She said teasingly. "A masochist wants punishment they want to be hurt. The very simple answer is you don't hurt them" She smiled putting the paper aside. "I'm giving her positive reinforcement one more time today then I'll go back to what I'm normally doing" She slipped the next paper in front of her. Once again she was sitting in front of the basement door at her kitchen table with her hoof lightly tapping the table as she read the slip.

"The bandages as bondage tools is interesting, I wouldn't mind that. But no the idea is silly she will not think of the cuts as a good thing in that situation she will see the bandages as things that tie her down, keep her from being free. And because the cuts need bandages she will avoid the cuts at all cost to prevent the bandages from coming back" She put it aside. "No, unfortunately that will make her fear the bandages and I can't have her developing that fear"

She grabbed the next slip. "Tho this idea makes sense, it seems rather childish to me. Itching powder to get her into masochism? It sounds immature and unprofessional. No there is cleaner ways of doing this you've already seen her let out her little moans she thinks I don't hear... She's getting there on her own, let her discover the pleasure on her own and she will stick with it forever. However if she is forced into it the love of cutting will only stay as long as the threat of something uncomfortable"

She sighed. "It's an unprofessional way of doing this, I'm a professional. Not a child" She put down the last slip standing up with a sigh. "I'm giving her a chance tonight, to sleep with me... I'm thinking about leaving her untied.." She frowned staring off at the floor for a moment. "I want to untie her..." She looked suddenly depressed now. "I don't want to have to threaten her. I don't want to have to keep her tied up I just... Want to sleep next to her again" She had a mix of anger and depression as she picked up the camera with her magic making it follow her downstairs where the gentle light of the moon from her kitchen windows soon disappeared, but with it went her bad mood as she slipped on a smile for Berry.

Berry looked up from her spot on the table, one of the few times her face did not reflect fear or sadness as she saw Colgate come into view. She almost smiled a bit but she held back as Colgate walked over giving her cheek a gentle kiss before making her way over to the table. "How is my favourite mare doing today?" She smiled looking back at Berry as her magic set the camera down on the stand and pulled the bandages from last night's cut letting her magic trail off and heal what was left of the wound leaving Berry's beautiful body looking normal again.

"It doesn't hurt as much anymore..." She admitted with a bit of a frown ashamed at herself for having actually liked it a little last time Colgate cut her.

"That's good" Colgate smiled walking over gently running a hoof over Berry's chest enticed by the sight of the delicate mare. "I have a surprise for you darling" She smiled gently pressing her cheek to Berry's chest taking a moment to listen to the gentle beat of Berry's heart, happy to hear that Berry was no longer scared of her as the heart gently continued its standard rhythm. Berry watched her pull away as Colgate trailed a hood up her body gently placing it on Berry's cheek. Berry couldn't help but gently nuzzle into the hoof closing her eyes making Colgate smile at the adorable sight of Berry taking comfort in the light touch.

"I hope I can trust you" She said her magic reaching up to the bindings. Berry's eyes followed the magic for a moment before the bindings came loose and she fell to the floor. Colgate grabbed her tight with a mix of magic and the little muscle force she had, carefully holding Berry up from falling onto the floor. Berry was panting heavily out of the sudden fear of her fall, now held tightly in Colgate's grip she tried to stand. Her muscles having gone mostly unused were delicate at first but soon she was standing again with Colgate standing in front of her, gently hooves on her neck and cheek and a kind smile watching her as Berry finally felt free for the first time since her captivity started.

Berry was so wrapped up in finally being able to stand on her own she didn't notice Colgate's hooves slipping from her neck as the mare made her way around to Berry's side, where she gently draped a hoof over Berry's back looking over at her with a smile. Giving her forehead a gentle kiss as she motioned to the stairs. "Come on, I can't let you sleep on that silly metal table after you've been so good to me" She smiled nuzzling the bridge of her nose and forehead gently against Berry's neck careful not to poke anything with her horn before guiding Berry to the stairs carefully supporting the fragile mare as she started to climb the stairs. At first Berry faltered but Colgate caught her quickly and helped her up the rest of the way to the door. The camera guided ahead watching Colgate as she led Berry out into the kitchen where Berry got caught up in the moonlight. She stopped walking for a moment her legs shaking a bit as she stared off toward the moon having never been happier to see the outside world in her life.

She glanced back at Colgate who was watching her legs with some concern. Unbelievable to her she leaned over nuzzling against Colgate's cheek as a silent way of saying not to worry, taking a few more steps they managed to get to the second set of stairs where Colgate once more helped her up to their bedroom. Berry stared at the bed intently until finally managing to get herself to it. Colgate got distracted for a moment latching the camera to the roof with her magic but her distraction didn't last long as Berry collapsed into the bed with a heavy sigh. She didn't speak at first she just adjusted herself into the sleeping position Colgate was familiar with her taking up, laying on her side hooves outstretched in front of her with her back hooves trailing off down the bed. Colgate smiled as Berry nuzzled the pillow to find a comfy spot which wasn't hard to do after so long sleeping on a table.

Colgate climbed on soon after, slipping in behind Berry wrapping a hoof around her stomach/chest draping her tail over the fragile framed mare. Berry didn't respond for a moment cluing Colgate off that she had almost immediately passed out at the feeling of the warm soft bed. Colgate giggled a bit wrapping the blanket around them with her magic as she lay her head down as well, unannounced she secretly rigged the floor with her magic to wake her up should anything touch it. And in the comfort of Berry's warm body she fell asleep snuggling up with her mare.

Come 3am Berry's body woke her, the alien feeling of the warm bed woke her from her desperate sleep and she sat up looking around the room, Colgate sleeping next to her hoof still draping over her stomach where it was just before she fell asleep. She started to breath rather heavily as her mind raced with thoughts of running away but for whatever reason she couldn't go any farther than thoughts. It was confusing to her, to not wish to run anymore. But she had to accept that gut feeling to stay with Colgate was right. And despite the terror that had been induced to her Colgate was still the best thing to happen in her life. And as much as she tried to deny it, she was now in love with the feeling of the blade, so long as Colgate held it she loved it. She was just not willing to admit it out loud, and thus silently she lay back down. Turning around and burying her face in Colgate's chest with a bit of a whimper, closing her eyes as she relaxed into the heat of Colgate's body and once more fell back into a proper night's sleep.

Come morning Colgate was gone from the bed, but Berry found herself without binds to stop her from moving. As she sat up she began to panic a bit, the feeling of the bindings was so familiar she didn't know what to do on her own anymore. But despite this feeling of unease she got up moving down the stairs slowly, guiding herself with the rail so she wouldn't fall with her still weak legs. She felt well rested which was a change for her, but as she stepped downstairs she stared at the front door now sitting in front of her, but as her hoof reached out to touch it she stopped with her hoof planted on the door and turned away walking rather quickly out to the kitchen where she found Colgate smiling at her having just finished preparing their morning meal. Colgate frowned seeing Berry's panicked state and walked over hugging her tight. She received a tight hug from Berry making her smile once more as she felt the hooves wrap around her. "What's wrong dear?" She asked looking up and down at Berry to see if she fell down the stairs.

Berry frowned nuzzling Colgate's neck again but with no answer Colgate turned to the table motioning for Berry to take a seat. "Let's get you something to eat" She guided Berry to the table helping her take her seat but before Berry was ready to eat she looked back at Colgate with a confused and somewhat scared look, but it was not fear of Colgate it was fear of something else. "You look beautiful" Colgate smiled gently stroking Berry's mane and neck. "Now take it easy when you eat, I know you want to eat it all at once" She giggled. "But that's not gana go well with how little you've been eating lately. Let's take it slow" She motioned toward the carefully prepared food to which Berry finally smiled just a little.
