Lauren says: Ahhh, the cable ties. They went with the aesthetic and energy so well. (It didn’t hurt matters that they showcased Candy’s upper arms Really Well, either.) There’s some great crying in this portion, too, starting when I take a nasty, stingy Lucite paddle to her inner thighs and sore breasts while she’s bound. (I knew it would be tough for her because it would be tough for me, and as she commented in the first clip, we’re basically the same person.) The tears turn to trembles and gasps for the knifeplay that follows. This is about the middle of the intense scene we negotiated, and I was pushing her very hard by this point.(I turned to my partner after watching this clip and said aloud, “Wow. I’m a bastard.”)
