[ sometime on day 03, we're not quite sure when, Nessa's going to receive a fairly alarming message. ]

Nessa. Please come to my room. Door is unlocked.

[ i mean, since when does Sprezzatura say "please"??? ]

[ nessa honey i'm so sorry your gaybrain is setting you up for such a disappointing letdown.

for Sprezzatura, it is five minutes of total misery—convinced, abruptly, that in addition to everything else today, Nessa will, for whatever reason, simply ignore her message, or else she's going to be trapped here for hours until she checks her phone. it's to this end that she actually, literally, jumps when her phone vibrates with Nessa's reply, and then she jumps again at the knock.

Nessa will hear a note of strain in Sprezzatura's voice, coming from inside:
] Nessa? Come in, hurry.
velluminous: (can you keep them in the dark)

[ Sprezzatura is not nude. I'm sorry. what she is is half-nude, sort of, with her blouse wrenched open to reveal the bustier and collar beneath, but rather than sexy, it all looks a touch deranged, because her throat is also scored with five ugly, clotted gouge marks that Nessa may find unpleasantly familiar.

and the way Sprezzatura is standing, seemingly frozen with one hand white-knuckle clenching the edge of the dresser, is not sexy, either. it's like she's dropped glass all over the floor and is afraid of moving and stepping on it. that kind of unnatural stillness, that kind of tension in every limb of her body.

her eyes slide over to her apprentice. looks like she's... also been crying? rage crying? her eye makeup is smeared all over her cheeks.

I can't move.
velluminous: (call me Mephistopheles)

[ it's!! humiliating!! having anyone see her this way—

thought maybe, it might have been easier, if it were Nessa, after all they have gone through, after all the girl has relied on her for, that it might be an easier pill to swallow to have to rely on her now. but it's not.
]

Close—please close door.

[ a rough whisper ]
velluminous: (shoulder the sky)

[personal profile] velluminous 2023-07-16 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[ reaches out and wraps her fingers around her arm, a tight grip ]

There is man here... Zenos, he said. Not of sound mind. Threatened to slit my throat.

[ her throat bobs beneath the collar as she speaks, as she swallows thickly ]

I decided to—to...

[ to what? just about kill herself in front of him? why did she do that? what is wrong with her? ]

...to take fun out of it for him.
velluminous: (if i don't come back)

[personal profile] velluminous 2023-07-16 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ]

You cannot reason with men like that! You may only deprive them of their desires!
velluminous: (pray for me oh children)

[personal profile] velluminous 2023-07-16 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
In bar. He... [ she gestures, miming fisting up the hair at the back of her head ] He is enormous, like he might touch ceiling, I—Nessa, I cannot move.
velluminous: (i'll believe the stories that i tell)

[personal profile] velluminous 2023-07-16 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ if you wanna be a wizard, you gotta be willing to throw a little spice on it. a little self-mutilation. some sacrifice if we're feeling frisky.

opens her mouth. nothing comes out. it's all stuck behind her teeth

velluminous: (you make me climb)

[personal profile] velluminous 2023-07-16 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ you can just see dignity and humiliation warring in her ]

I have to be led around.

Like someone's dog.

[ she has been resisting it from the moment the collar was fastened, but it's disorienting, and painful, and she has been trapped in place in her room for forty-five minutes just trying to reach the en suite to wash ]

That was price of stopping my bleeding. That is what this place would see me reduced to.
velluminous: (bright blood flood)

[personal profile] velluminous 2023-07-16 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ LIKE A DOG, NESSA!!!! ]

Wh. What?
velluminous: (you make me climb)

[personal profile] velluminous 2023-07-16 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[ you really don't wanna be the one explaining petplay to a hysterical Sprezzatura Vaux. trust me on this.

she reaches up and pulls at the leather, but it's very snug to her throat and it does not move.
]

He was fucking vague. "Day or so". And mark me: no one is parading me around in front of everyone as though I am spectacle or pet. I need you to help me there— [ she nods towards the open door of the bathroom ] —and then... tomorrow... before breakfast, take me to lobby so I may eat.
