I keep a clean sweep of the house itself, but there's only so much I can do. We can't get rid of their phones, and they've got so much shit going on with them. Sending out texts or pictures for us, recording us, using them as orgasm sensors. [The last one sounds so fake to him, but that's how LIES explains it and he's yet to come up with a better explanation. This newfangled tech is weird.

He chuckles softly.] Most, yeah. Things are harsher than they were last time you were here. The collars and cuffs are new, but they're trying to enforce "model" behaviour, too. SIN guards telling Doms to make their Subs act more submissive in public. Natives forcing Subs to eat out of a Dom's hand at a restaurant, kneeling beside them while they shop. Things like that.

[It wouldn't be so bad if people could consent to it. The city doesn't care much about consent in this particular instance, though.]
