Congratulations and welcome back to The Glee Academy. ELLIOT GILBERT is a SWITCH and will be placed in suite 117 in the building that used to be Dalton Academy because he has been found to pose no threat to the general population. As soon as you send in your account link I’ll add you to the masterlist and get you an ooc link.

PM: I miss you too. You can come see me any time. That would be nice, I’m finishing up some caramel popcorn, so there’ll be treats. 

You are? I’d like that, that sounds really nice. You’re so talented. I know…I don’t think you’ve been playing recently. I noticed. It’ll be nice to hear you again.

PM: That’s really sweet of you. Always living up to that nickname of yours. 

Yeah, yeah I am. I haven’t been playing, no. But I’ll play for you. Just you though. As much fun as those performances look every time, it’s not for me right now.

PM: No, I’m not. What’s up?

PM: I miss you. I want to see you. I can head to your place. 

... I’m going to bring my guitar.

A few things. One, let’s give a big ass round of applause for the dance team. You guys fuckin’ killed it out there. No surprise, had no doubts or whatever. But shit, you guys rocked it. And while we’re on the subject of rock- Two, let’s give another round of applause for Theo and Vic, for that cool fuckin’ show. Been a while since I got hype like that. 

Now that we’ve gotten that outta the way. What’s everyone been up to? 

​

I agree with all of the above. I’m good, I’ve been making use of the mark-free zone and thinking about those performances you just talked about. It’s been quieter around here lately and I’ve been taking advantage of that too. I hear we both have interest in that smash car too. 

[sirstarchild]

PM: Hey, are you busy, sweetness? @artiesubsbrams​

[sirstarchild]

I’ve been spending most of my time in the mark-free zone, we’re kidding ourselves if we think this school hasn’t always needed a safe space. These spontaneous concerts are very tempting, applause for that too. I’ve still got a few of those songs stuck in my head.

Just as Artie finished reading Elliot’s text, he turned to see the very same walking towards him. Smiling, Artie turned himself to face the other. “Hello Sir. Thank you for coming. I thought I’d respond to your last text verbally, since you’re here, if that’s okay. Thank you for wanting to hold my hand. That means a lot to me. You’re…Saying a lot of things Sir. A lot of things. I don’t mind it. I don’t dislike it either. It’s just a lot of things I’ve never heard before. Or thought about. I’m used to just kind of being…Here. I’m just here. I don’t want to say too much. I don’t want to make it seem like I’m not grateful. I’m grateful for any offer of service. It’s hard for submissives here to get recognized if they don’t have a close relationship with a Dominant or a Switch. And it’s…It’s even harder. For me.” Artie’s head dropped as he shrugged, chewing his lip for a moment. “Really, it’s more that I thought I was invited to the dinner. But…That wasn’t the case. And I figured it wouldn’t be. So I offered service, I didn’t want to look completely stupid. I knew what would happen. It’s my fault. If I hadn’t responded, Sir Hunter would have left me alone. I shouldn’t be tired, this is who I am. It’s what I’m meant to do. My mark says so. And if being exhausted means I’m interacting and having opportunities to serve…It just- It was hard enough getting claimed the first time around. I’m sorry Sir. I don’t want to upset you. I don’t want to overstep either, I know how hard everything is. I’m struggling to find a balance. I’ve never believed in a balance, but I also want to give you what you do need. I…I’m just sorry.” Artie’s voice was quiet, barely above a whisper, his eyes downcast. 

When Artie came into view, Elliot smiled and waved, looking at the other man with warmth and just a little bit of concern. When Artie spoke, he listened closely, intently, moving to the other man’s front to be near and participate. When Artie was done, Elliot nodded and bent at the waist to reach forward to touch the other man’s cheek, his shoulder, and then his hand. “I’m going to move your legs for a moment,” he warned, then gently nudged the foot rests on Artie’s wheelchair so that there was a few feet of distance in between the man’s feet, spreading his legs and making it so that there was room between his legs. Elliot took that space that he made and knelt in it, right between Artie’s knees, and reached forward to take his hands. This wasn’t a submissive gesture, it was an intimate one, he wasn’t on his knees he was just closer to Artie’s level. Face to face, not hovering or bending at the waist in a way that could be seen as condescending. “You’re a good boy, sweetness. I told you that you don’t have to apologize, and I’m just as confused now as I was the last time you apologized for no reason. Thank you for trusting me with all of that. I want you to know that you can do that. You can talk to me, openly and honestly. You can tell me anything. You’re not upsetting me. I’m more likely to worry if you don’t talk to me. It’s not something you owe me, you’re not obligated to tell me how you feel, I want you to know that, but when it’s you holding back because you feel like you have to... I’m going to call you out, to remind you. Because I want to help, I want to be here for you. You’re allowed to be upset because you thought you were being invited to attend, and even if replying to offer service is probably why you ended up serving instead of attending or not showing up, you don’t have to be complacent. If you want to say no, you can say no. And either way, you can be upset with me about not being at the table. I get it, like I told you. You don’t want anyone that only wants you because you’re pushing yourself to be something you’re not anyway. You don’t want to be held to a standard you don’t want to keep up. If you dress up as a furry because you think it’ll get you attention and then it does, then you’re going to feel like you have to dress like a furry forever. Is it worth it to be with someone if you have to be a furry forever? You’re acting like what your old Master would have wanted and we both know that is not at all what you want. Being single, or instead... sticking with me... sounds preferable to that if you ask me. It looks like things are picking up with people being social and finding partners anyway, but that doesn’t need to dictate anything. Nobody else needs to dictate anything for you. I think it would be best if we spent some time in the safe space, where none of this matters. I think it would be a good idea if we had safe space hours regularly too, outside of the actual safe space. So we can relax in private. You’re saying all kinds of things that you know now don’t make any sense, and anything I do is going to be both a little helpful and feeding into it a little because you’re so used to people deciding for you and ordering you around that you need to find independence and freedom outside of that, but the only way I can help you to that is to decide for you and order you around, which is counterproductive.” Deep breaths, Elliot nodded, the look in his eyes saying that there was about a thousand and one different thoughts speeding by. “We’ll figure it out. Are you ready for that walk? It’s nice out today.”

artiesubsbrams​:

PM: I…Thank you, Sir. I care about you too. It was a lot, but it’s…Okay. I put myself there. Thank you for checking. I’ll see you soon Sir. Please be safe. You want to- Yes, yes that’s totally fine. More than okay, yes. 

PM: Yes, I want to hold your hand. I had to ask, I don’t ever want to push you without asking, you’re a grown adult and you can handle yourself. I know that, you know that. I don’t want you to feel like I don’t. But I also don’t mind, I’d be fine carrying you around 24/7. Bridal style, backpack/piggyback style. There you go, that’s what I’m looking for. That honesty. It was a lot, you can tell me more, sweetness. Go on. Nevermind that you put yourself on the list. You can sign up to do a marathon and still be tired afterwards. 

[sirstarchild]

artiesubsbrams​:

PM: Yes Sir, I can do that. I’ll be outside, I’ll wait for you. That’s a good idea, yes. Thank you. 

PM: I care about you, Artie. I saw the order for you and I wasn’t going to ignore it or how it might make you feel. As a person and as a Submissive. I’m on my way, I’ll see you soon. I’ll push you, if you don’t mind, so that I can hold your hand while we walk. 

[sirstarchild]

artiesubsbrams​:

PM: I’m in Sir Hunter’s kitchen, Sir. I do believe we’re about to be dismissed, though. Where would you like for me to be?

PM: Stay right there for me, please. Outside the suite, though, once you’re let go. I’m on my way, we’ll walk together from there. I don’t want to keep doing this on the internet, I want to look you in the eye. Besides, we could both use some fresh air.

[sirstarchild]

artiesubsbrams​:

PM: I…I don’t know, I just felt like I’d done something wrong. I felt like I should apologize. I’m okay, I just don’t…I’m sorry. I’m just not used to people saying things like that. I’m not trying to be a problem, or to create a problem. I’m just trying to make sure you’re alright. Well I- I see your point, Sir. And maybe I am. But that’s irrelevant. Things like this happen all the time. Sir Malakai and Miss Zoe are…Well that’s just how they are. And I suppose I would rather be serving them than to get punished by them. if I’m doing what I’m supposed to, what I’m meant for, they’ll leave me alone. Kind of. I don’t…I’ve never done anything like that before Sir. Not titled or not submitted. It’s…I just- I don’t want to get into trouble. I don’t want to be disrespectful or to forget my place. Aftercare? For service? I’ve never- I mean I know you have, but I never expect it. That would be out of line, it isn’t my place. I just try not to think about it. It’s easier that way, I learned that a long time ago. I usually just take care of myself. Which is okay. I’m used to it. I wouldn’t want to upset anyone by saying otherwise or indicating that I feel otherwise. But that’s just me. It’s hard to step away from the…Well, I guess you’d call it training. I know this isn’t easy for you either. I’m not stupid. I don’t want what I’m saying to be taken the wrong way, or for you to feel any way about it. I don’t…I’m talking myself into a hole. I’m sorry, I’ll be quiet. I don’t know what I need. Everyone just usually tells me what I need, and I just accept it. I’m sorry. My instinct is to want to help with that. I don’t think that’s what you want, in the way I’m used to. I’ll be okay. I’m…It’ll be okay. It always is right?

PM: Oh, sweetness. Where are you right now?

[sirstarchild]

artiesubsbrams​:

PM: I…No, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to- I’m sorry. I’m okay, thank you Sir. Are you okay?

PM: What’s wrong? Why are you apologizing? Are you sure you’re okay? I wouldn’t be too happy about having to serve my brother at a social dinner, on a personal, human level. Elliot Gilbert would be having a difficult time not being upset with Oakland Gilbert for letting it happen. And Elliot Gilbert would be embarrassed. As a human being. I’d also want to stop titling and being responsible for submitting to other people, I’d want a break. Aftercare. Everyone needs those things. Somewhere like the safe space, but more private. Maybe some cuddling and a movie. Some soothing, a reminder that I’m a human being. What do you need? I’m having the same kind of day I always have, I’m not the one serving at a dinner party so I’m asking about you.

At first I was just too lazy to shave, now I guess I’m leaning into it. I kinda like it. It’s definitely nice to be down the responsibility of daily shaving.

artiesubsbrams​:

PM: Hello Sir! Thanks for checking in, that’s really nice of you. I’m okay, I’m working in the kitchen at Sir Hunter’s dinner. I’m…My siblings are here. I’m cooking for them I guess. How are you, Sir? Is there anything I can do for you, once I am dismissed from here?

PM: Do you really want to serve someone else after you’ve just finished serving your siblings and the rest of that group? You can ask to come hang out, you know. Just spend time with me. But if you’re in need of more submission, I can find something. I messaged to check in on you because I thought you might finally need a break from all of that. I wanted to see how you were feeling. Not as a Submissive. As Artie Abrams. Talking to Elliot Gilbert. 

[sirstarchild]

DM: Mhm. That told me everything I needed to know. Next question- how are you doing with that?

[PM] Well, he’s not Robby, which is already a plus. I don’t know if I’m the type of person that can just... not have anyone around. As much as I want to think that would work because it sounds easier. He’s very excitable, very eager, one of those 24/7 yes Sir, no Sir types that titles me at least 100 times every minute. Which is a lot. Especially for someone that went through what I went through and especially while people are causing so much power exchange based drama. I’m glad we have a safe space now, somewhere that marks don’t matter. I’m sure you’re not surprised that I like being there where there are no marks, no titles, no orders, and no stress. Artie is very sweet, though. Smart too. He’s been making all of my meals since I got here, and checking in to clean my suite. He’s taking care of me, and I’m trying to take care of him a bit in return. Was that what you were looking to hear about?

I require service. I’m looking for chefs, waiting staff to serve and bus food, and if one of you is adequate enough you’ll be ordered to serve Nick and I personally. I’m not going to come to you or choose specifically because who you are doesn’t matter to me. What matters is your ability to serve, so prove that in your response. 

To the rest of us Claringtons and Duvals, I require your presence here tonight in Nick’s suite. I welcome the Smythes, Abrams, and Flanagans as well. You too, Polo. Even if nobody else has enough class to recognize the Villada name for some reason, I do.
