Rules - general

General


1) i submit to the will of my Master and i am bound to Him. i accept His authority over me for my purpose is to serve, obey and please my Master. i will work hard to give my Master control and turn my will over to Him. i know this is my duty and i desire to serve and please Him by doing so.
2) i accept that part of my training is the actual physical control of my behavior. i am allowed no secrets from my Master and i will work hard to welcome this openness of body, mind and soul.
3) i will always show respect for my Master. i will find ways to serve Him and demonstrate my worth. The opportunity to please my Master is very important to me and i will seek out ways to do so. my greatest satisfaction is realised when i know i have pleased my Master.
4) If i displease my Master i desire that He inform me so that i can correct my actions. There can be no greater pain or suffering i can feel than when my Master is not pleased with me. i will accept the guidance i need to be put back on track, so that i will be forgiven and once again be pleasing to Him.
5) When i am not in the presence of my Master and i have choices to make, i will decide them to the best of my abilities and within the boundaries and guidance He has established for me.


Communication


6) Communication with my Master is one of the most important aspects of my development. i will not hesitate when responding to my Master. i am responsible for all words that i speak and i will always listen with a strong interest to whatever my Master has to say. i will not swear or use bad language; failure to abide by this rule may lead to me being disciplined.
7) i must be both specific and explicit in my speech. i will give complete and accurate answers to each and every question that my Master asks of me. If i have to answer a request or question negatively i will give a full reason as to why this is.
8) i may seek clarification of any order from my Master. This will not be interpreted as a means of arguing or disagreeing. i will obtain permission to speak, in order to carry out my allocated duties or rules, by presenting myself to my Master, tilting my head to one side and waiting for His verbal "yes libby?"; i must obtain permission to ask a question at all other times, by presenting myself before my Master and then asking "Sir, please may i ask a question?"
9) i will always address my Master as 'Sir' or 'Master', will use 'please' and 'thank-you' appropriately and respond "yes Sir" to all commands. i will use 'Sir' or 'Master' at the beginning and end of every request. i must always give thanks to my Master for all i am given immediately after receiving it, for such things are gifts or privileges granted to me by Him. This also includes any punishment and discipline that i may receive.
10) i will willingly discuss any issues i have that limit my trust, with my Master. Any feeling of anger, fear or other counter-productive emotion will be expressed to my Master in order that He may find a way to correct these feelings. It is my duty to do so. These things can also be discussed during the 'free talk time', when i am allowed to speak openly with my Master.


Requests


11) i must ask my Master permission to leave His presence for any reason and i will ask my Master for permission to satisfy whatever need i have before acting on it. This includes getting food or drink, going to the toilet, getting a tissue etc. Requests for water will always be granted, but all other requests will be permitted at the discretion of my Master. i must accept my Master's decision without question.
12) Requests must be specific and detailed; for example i should not ask "Sir, please may i go to the bathroom?', but rather "Sir, please may i be excused to do a wee on the toilet?"
13) Food such as chocolate, crisps and cakes are treats given at my Master's discretion and i may not request them. my health is important to my Master and i will eat properly. i am allowed to eat as much food as i want at mealtimes, in order to maintain a healthy weight. i am to eat the same food as my Master at mealtimes and a healthy nutritious lunch when i am at work, but all eating between meals is restricted and dependent on permission from my Master.
14) During the initial stages of moving in with my Master i will be provided with a 'safe zone' in the spare bedroom, where i can go when i am becoming overwhelmed or i need time to think. i must ask permission to go there, but this permission will always be granted by my Master.
15) i may request a 'free talk time' at any time if i feel there is an important need for one. Such requests will usually be granted, although not necessarily straight away. It is expected that i will need to use this room less and less as i settle into my new lifestyle in my Master's house.


Clothing


16) i must always wear revealing and sexy clothing of good taste around my Master unless given permission to do otherwise. The clothing i wear will allow easy access to my pussy, ass and breasts. i will gladly accept whatever clothes my Master chooses for me to wear each day.
17) my basic attire in the presence of my Master while at home is a basque, stockings and my collar. i am not allowed to wear shoes in the house unless specifically instructed to do so. In public i am to wear a dress or skirt without panties around my Master. If i go out without my Master i am allowed to wear casual clothes such as jeans or combats, but i am not allowed to wear panties with these. i am to wear my uniform to work, and it is up to me whether i wear panties with this or not.
18) When i arrive home i am to change into the outfit my Master chose for me that morning, or to strip to my underwear and put on stockings and my collar. If my Master is in the house or entered with me, i should ask Him permission to go and get changed, otherwise this should be the first thing i do on entering the house.
19) i must remove all of my clothing in the way i have been taught when my Master commands of me to do so. i am to remove my clothes in the following order: top and skirt/dress, basque/bra, stockings. When i remove clothing from my body it must be folded neatly and placed in a small pile in front of me just ahead of my feet or my knees.
20) i am to always be naked in bed and while doing household chores, except for certain tasks when i will wear specified clothing to protect my body; i am to wear an apron and oven gloves when cooking and rubber gloves when using products such as bleach.


Hygiene


21) i must always keep the bathroom door fully open when i am in there. i am not allowed to use the toilet seat, but must sit directly onto the toilet itself. i am only to use the main bathroom or the downstairs toilet, not my Master's personal bathroom. i should not enter my Master's bathroom except to clean or restock it, and only when i have permission.
22) If my Master enters the bathroom whilst i am using it i must continue with what i am doing without feeling ashamed. Nothing about my body is to be hidden from Him, including toilet functions. i must ensure He has an unrestricted view of my actions.
23) my legs, underarms and pussy must be kept completely shaved smooth so that nothing of me is hidden from view. my pussy and ass must be thoroughly washed and of a good aroma at all times. i am required to shave my legs and underarms at least twice each week, but my Master will shave my pussy Himself on Wednesday and Sunday evenings, unless other arrangements necessitate an alternative time to be allocated. i am to assume the 'vaginal inspection' position on the chair in the bathroom and keep completely still while He shaves me, then i will be rinsed with cold water in the shower. i should apply the moisturising lotion and body powder provided by my Master to my pussy and underarms daily, in order to keep them smooth and free from irritation.
24) i must take a shower every morning, but when i do so i must not take too long. i am to remember that the shower is not for my pleasure or indulgence, but to keep my body clean for my Master. If i take too long i will be disciplined. To remind me of this: when i have finished washing i must rinse my entire body with only cold water for 1 minute on my back, 1 minute on my front and 1 minute on my pussy and ass. i am not to try to cover my body with my arms and hands during this or thereafter. i must then present myself to my Master in the bedroom and may be required to be inspected. i must wait for permission to dry myself.
25) my hair should be washed 3 times each week, in the evenings so it will have enough time to dry properly. i am allowed to request a bath or shower in the evening or i may be instructed to take one by my Master. i am permitted to take longer in the bath than i am in the shower, because this is my opportunity to relax and unwind. i am only to use the products selected for me by my Master, to ensure that my skin is soft and smooth for Him and i smell pleasing to Him. i must use the Vitamin E cream my Master has provided on any areas of my body which are healing, in order to promote this process.


Chores


26) i am responsible for the cleaning, dusting, hoovering, laundry, ironing, washing-up and tidying in the house. The cooking will be shared between me and my Master, with Him deciding which days He wishes to cook on. my Master will take care of the gardening, car maintenance and DIY tasks, although i may be required to help Him with these.
27) All shopping will be done by both of us. i am allowed to suggest things we buy but the final decision is down to my Master. i am allowed to spend my own money on whatever i wish to, although my Master would prefer me to consult Him when choosing clothes, at least initially until i am entirely familiar with His preferences in this area. i am permitted to go shopping on my own in order to spend my money, if i wish to and after obtaining the necessary permission from my Master.
28) Dinner should be served as close to 6:00pm as possible, washing-up must be done immediately after each meal and the bed must be made before i go to work or before 10:00am on weekends, but all other chores can be done at a time of my own choosing, so long as they do not interfere with other arrangements and duties my Master requires of me. If i leave it too long before doing a chore, so that my Master has to prompt or remind me about it, i will be disciplined.
29) Additional chores may be allocated by my Master at the beginning of the day, in which case i am free to decide when i do them that day, or at any point during the day to be completed immediately.
30) If i am unable to complete my chores for any reason, such as illness or other circumstances, i must explain this to my Master and endeavour to catch up with my tasks as soon as possible.

Routines


31) When my Master returns home from work i must present myself to Him, kneeling, as He enters the house, wait for a touch or verbal acknowledgment, then verbally welcome Him home. On entering a room my Master is in or when He enters a room i am in, i must present myself to Him, preferably at His feet if possible, in a standing position if He is standing or a kneeling position if He is sitting.
32) i must start getting ready for bed by 11:00pm every night. i am then to present myself naked, kneeling by the side of the bed and request permission to get in. my Master may require to inspect me before granting this permission. On getting into bed i must first offer my Master my ass for my butt plug to be inserted and then my wrists for my cuffs to be put on and tied to the bedpost. The first thing i should say to my Master every morning, and the last thing i should say to Him every night, is "i am Yours, Master".
33) On waking in the morning, after greeting my Master i must wait for my cuffs to be removed, then pleasure His cock with my mouth and my hands until He cums or instructs me to stop. Only then am i allowed to ask for my butt plug to be removed in order for me to shower. Sometimes my Master may wish me to remain with my hands cuffed together whilst i suck Him; He will make this clear to me at the time.
34) When it is time for me to go to work i must present myself to my Master and ask permission to leave the house, wishing Him a good day before i go.
35) When a meal is ready i am to ‘present’ myself to my Master and inform Him of this fact. i am then to follow Him to the table, kneeling by His chair until instructed to sit on my own chair and wait for permission to eat.


Posture


36) i must always remember how pleased my Master is when i think of myself as sexy and showing off my assets. my behaviour must always display a sexual content however subtle. When i walk, run, sit, stand, kneel, reach out, speak or listen i will do so in a manner pleasing to my Master, and with confidence and pride. i will try to be as graceful and alluring as possible when moving and in positions, so my Master obtains pleasure from looking at me. When kneeling to present an object to my Master, i should bow my head and raise both arms above my head, palms flat and facing upwards, and wait until He takes the offered object.
37) i am not to cross my arms or legs, clench my hands closed, firmly shut my mouth or slouch in the house. When standing i am to keep one heel off of the floor at all times.
38) i will make eye contact with my Master when speaking or when my Master speaks to me, for my eyes are a gift only for my Master, not to be given to the floor or anyone else. i will also give Him eye contact when i laugh or smile, to make it clear i am not laughing at Him. When i am confused or asking a question i am to tilt my head to one side.
39) If i am wearing a dress or skirt and no panties, and i am going to sit down, i must sit on my bare skin in private or in a vehicle unless told otherwise. If there is any reason i am not completely clean around my pussy and bottom, for example i am leaking my Master's cum or my own pussy juices, i must inform my Master so He can decide what needs to be done.
40) i must always sit on the floor or on my cushion next to my Master's chair, unless given specific permission to sit on the sofa with my Master or on my chair at the dining table. When sitting on a chair i shall sit up straight with my legs a little way apart and my palms face-up on the top of my thighs. If sitting on the floor i shall sit with my legs bent and to one side, with my hands either side of me; when told to assume the 'rest position' on my cushion i am permitted to sit in any way which is comfortable for me, so long as i do not obstruct my Master's view of my body. When given permission to sit on the sofa with my Master i am not expected to sit as i do on a chair normally, but am allowed to snuggle up with Him or sit over His lap.


Positions {see also Appendix to rules}


41) i will learn all the positions my Master wants to teach me to the best of my abilities and will be prepared to take such positions when required and to display myself in a manner through them that He, and others who may be present, will find most pleasing. i know that by using the slave positions i am enabling my Master to better manage and use me. i must ensure that i am never physically above my Master - such as standing when He is sitting or crawling across Him in bed - unless He has specifically instructed me to be.
42) i am to move into each position in a controlled, graceful manner, being aware of how i look to my Master. i am to remain in each position until given another instruction. Until further notice i will be expected to use the 'kneeling' cushion under my right knee, to support it whilst i am in any kneeling position .
43) At the moment the positions i am required to practice and use are: 'present', 'display', 'inspection' (breasts, vagina, anus, mouth), 'kneel up', 'surrender', 'rest position', 'spank position', 'whip position', 'follow', 'heel', 'open', 'kneel forward', 'kneel back' and 'supine'. my Master will add to these positions as He sees fit. i am to remember that the position for 'present' when ordered by my Master is different to that required when greeting Him or entering a room etc.
44) i am to close my legs during all positions whilst on my period, to indicate to my Master that my pussy is unavailable at that time. If told to 'present' to another Dom/me i should place my hands palm-down on my thighs to indicate that my pussy and ass are not available for Their sexual use.
45) When possible i will place myself on my Master's left side while sitting at His feet. i will not walk in front of my Master unless directed to do so. When walking i will 'heel' or 'follow' to my Master's left side.


Sexual use


46) my entire sexual being now belongs to my Master. i am a sexual and sensual being and my body is to be available for my Master’s use at all times. It is my Master’s choice as to how my body will be used to please him and i fully acknowledge that i no longer have ownership of my sexual being.
47) i must never reach orgasm without explicit permission from my Master; i am no longer allowed to ask permission to cum, but must wait until Sir tells me to cum and then cum as quickly and as hard as i can for Him. Such pleasure must be seen as a privilege so that i do not take advantage of it. Failure to receive permission before cumming will cause me to endure a punishment my Master will put upon me. i am permitted to cum whilst 'training' with flamesoul and i am allowed to request permission to cum r/l whilst scening on #P&H.
48) i will never touch my breasts, nipples, pussy or clit with my hands or sex toys in any manner where i could experience sexual or sensual pleasure without permission from my Master. Doing so will also lead to a punishment.
49) my mouth, pussy and ass will be used as my Master wishes for His pleasure. i will work hard to provide complete pleasure for my Master. When my Master's cock is put into my mouth and i am directed to suck it, i will do so as long as i am required to. my hands shall be placed behind my back so that during the sucking i can use my whole body to display my hunger to my Master, unless i am instructed to use my hands as well as my mouth on His cock. i will not restrict my Master's view of me. my Master's cum must never go to waste. i will swallow His cum as it is a gift to receive it. i will clean His cock with my mouth after He cums, without needing to be told to. When my Master puts His fingers or a toy to my mouth, i must kiss, lick and suck until He removes it/them.
50) i am responsible for keeping all my Master's tools and toys clean, tidy and in the correct places for when He next requires to use them. This rule includes my responsibility for keeping my Master's whips and floggers in good condition through the use of beeswax.

Service


51) i will not hesitate in my obedience to my Master and will respond quickly to all orders given. When told to perform a duty for my Master i will do so without delay or question unless i do not understand the meaning of the order. When ordered to fetch something i should fetch it as quickly as possible, drop to my knees at my Master's feet, kiss the object and then hold it above my head to offer it to Him (as described in #36).
52) The needs of my Master must always come first before my own for they offer an opportunity to please Him. i must be attentive to the needs of my Master and always be ready to respond to them to the best of my abilities and in the way He has shown me.
53) i will learn my Master's preferences and habits, so i can anticipate and provide for His needs. i am to ensure that He always has a drink next to Him wherever He is in the house, and i am to offer such services as running Him a bath, bringing Him the newspaper and massaging His feet when i think He may require them.
54) i shall gladly make my body available to my Master to be used as furniture: my body positioned to decorate a room or garden, a footstool to rest His weary feet and legs upon, my back or ass as His table to eat off of or rest His drink on, my palms to be used to hold a plate of His food, or my hands to hold a book open for Him to read or a lamp for Him to see.
55) i will be expected to also provide these services for any Dom/me friends my Master invites to the house, unless They bring Their own subs to attend to Their needs.


Limits


56) The 'safeword' given to me by my Master can be spoken at any time, even when i have been told to be silent. If i am not able to verbalize it my Master will show me how i can express it. my Master does not view a 'safeword' as a limitation of His authority, but as a means to ensure my safety. Because i am granted a 'safeword' i am expected to correctly use it. i can be punished if i attempt to use it for control or to set limits on my Master's authority. It is a safety device only. If i am gagged or otherwise unable to verbalise my safeword i am required to use the "two grunts" method - to call "red" i will grunt loudly twice in quick succession, repeatedly.
57) my 'safeword' is "red". my Master will always stop immediately when i say this word. i may also if getting close to my limits say "yellow". my Master is under no obligation to stop at the "yellow" warning, but will judge how to use the information. He may choose to ease off or change activities, but this is solely up to Him. my Master will use the "two squeezes" method with me during scenes, when i would find it difficult or distracting to reply to Him verbally - He will take my hand and squeeze it twice to mean "are you OK?", i am expected to respond by squeezing His hand twice to communicate "yes Sir, i am OK". If my Master does not feel me return the squeezes after 2 attempts, He will stop the scene to check my well-being more thoroughly.
58) i will work on building up my tolerances to the level my Master needs me to have, being careful not to push myself further or faster than i am ready to endure for Him, so that i may be able to expand my limitations. i am aware that my Master will gradually challenge and push my limits, but only in specified sessions and after discussing with me Master exactly what is to happen.
59) At the moment my limits are: animals, children (both of which my Master will never challenge), scat, breath play, needles, blood, extreme pain, faceslapping, spitting, single-tail whips. i am allowed to add to these limits if necessary, for example if i experience something new and it causes a significant problem for me.
60) my Master will never expect me to have another M/man's cock in my pussy or ass, but He may ask me to be used by other Dom/mes, play with other subs, serve at parties etc. i am allowed to refuse these requests if i feel uncomfortable about what is being required of me.


Punishment


61) i will endure whatever discipline or punishment my Master gives me so i can become a better submissive for Him. Details of all discipline and punishments, including photographs, will be kept in 'libby's learning folder' to serve as a reminder; a list of all items in 'libby's learning folder' and all punishments received, will be kept on my blog.
62) i will thank my Master for the discipline and punishments i receive, specifying what i received and expressing the reason as to why i was given them.
63) my 'safeword', verbal or otherwise, cannot be used when i am being punished. i must remember that punishment could never be very effective if i were able to control it. i must take it in full measure so that i will focus on the correction of my behaviour for the long term. However 'safewords' can be used when i am being disciplined. my Master will let me know which is which when the time has come that such treatment is necessary to correct my behaviour.
64) i will be punished for breaking any of the rules set out here, any additional rules my Master may later impose, or for wilfully disobeying Him. i can expect punishments to be harsh and painful, but i am assured of my Master's forgiveness as soon as i have endured the punishment allocated. i am not allowed to sleep in my Master's bed on days it has been necessary to punish me, instead i am to sleep on a mat on the floor with my wrist-cuffs tied to the leg of the bed.
65) i will be disciplined if my Master feels i have not done a task to the best of my ability or for additional matters which arise outside of the rules. Discipline will not be as painful as a punishment, but it will serve to remind me to try harder in future. Being disciplined during the day does not prevent me from sleeping in my Master's bed that night.


Leisure


66) i am allowed to remain in contact with my family, friends and colleagues, through phone calls, emails, letters, having them visit, visiting them and going out with them. i should inform my Master of any visits or arrangements to go out in good time, so my training and other duties can be rearranged if necessary.
67) i am permitted to watch the television or DVDs with my Master in the evenings. i am allowed to request to watch specific programmes which i enjoy.
68) i am allowed access to my laptop, the internet and #bondage chatrooms. i must ensure that my use of the computer does not interfere with my other duties or requirements, and i should bring the laptop to where my Master is, if possible, so i can be near Him whilst i am using it. i am allowed to serve other Dom/mes in the chatrooms; my Master would prefer it if i only served those Dom/mes i know or am sure i can trust. The previous restrictions still apply, such as not giving out any photo or email address or specified information about me or my Master. i must make sure i shut the computer down in time to get ready for bed at 11:00pm; failure to comply with this rule may lead to my computer access being taken away for a specified period of time. Part of the conditions for being allowed to retain my computer privileges includes the keeping of an online blog/journal; this should be used to record my thoughts and feelings on a regular basis. Although i am aware that my Master will be reading the blog(s), i should nonetheless endeavour to write freely, openly and honestly in it, so that things i am unable to express verbally during 'free talk times' will still become known to my Master. i will not be punished for anything i write in my blog(s).
69) i am allowed to read, play on the PlayStation and listen to music only after getting permission from my Master first. i am permitted to take a walk or go into town, with my Master's permission.
70) my wages from my job are mine for me to keep, after contributing to household bills, food money etc. i am allowed to spend them on whatever i wish to.
