Well, technically it's my 1501st, but who's counting? Other than Google apparently!
I think I'll talk about 1500 posts within the next few posts. Haven't really had time to ruminate on it yet other than I never thought I'd hit 100 posts!
I'm sure you won't mind that I saw this picture and still had Halloween running around my noggin. Hence, a Halloween caption in November. Not like my brain isn't in that mode all the time anyway, but I certainly wasn't going to wait another 11 months to unleash this upon my target, or perhaps my victim, Olivia Lovely. Heh heh, leash! Here kitty kitty! Sorry to any Shirley Jackson fans that were expecting a dilemma for our protagonist. There really was only ONE choice for her.
I was going for a mixture of evil and sweetness mood wise. I had the basic idea in my head as I was plotting out the design on the caption, and I just needed to flush it all out by writing it down in the text box. The "couples costume" idea sprang forth right as I got to that moment, and having a lion tamer / animal trainer outfit for Dee seemed right as it is definitely a dominant contrivance akin to a sexual dominatrix. Often they have the same tools and replicate some of the same skills in taming a wild beast to behave the way they wish them to act.
At that point, Sam was toast as far as the caption was concerned. However, I like to think that we have a discovery and awakening here in the plot for BOTH of the characters. Captions don't usually have enough room to play that out sufficiently with a limited amount of words like you could in TG fiction, and as it was, I had to trim a few sentences, or rewrite some phrases to make sure the text stayed at a decent, readable size.
So I hope everyone enjoyed this caption. Feel free to comment as usual, but I have a request for all those who read this blog post. It's 10 days until Thanksgiving Thursday here in the US. What I would like you to do is really easy, and will only take a minute or two, based on something I saw on Facebook. Each day, pick one of your favorite TG caption sites, or TG Fiction or something else that deals with content you enjoy consuming .. and give heartfelt thanks to the creator. Tell them how their work makes you feel; whether it inspires you, turns you on, lets you know you aren't alone, whatever makes a connection to you personally. I cannot tell you how much it will be appreciated, and you'll feel good to express your gratitude for whatever inspiration they provide. 10 comments in 10 days .. it seems so stupidly easy to do! Let's make it happen!
Yeah. I should have posted the Golden Girls theme version but you just cannot deny the epic 1970's facial hair. That decade certain brought forth its A game for whiskers!
