He really liked the ambulatory public scene that we did in the lobby. So I decided to try to do something in the IML lobby. I talked to the people sitting around one of the large sturdy coffee tables. They did not oppose the idea of a public scene.
SteelCollar was dressed in a full rubber suit and high boots, all black. So I got out the ropes in opposing colors and started tying.
Tying on top of rubber is a little challenging. Unlike against skin, the rope doesn't move as much, so they have to be placed correctly or completely undone. But the white ropes really look beautiful over the shiny black of rubber.
I tied a chest harness and hands and the feet. I shifted him onto his front and tied him into a hogtie.
I shifted him onto his back. I tied his feet into the air to the corners of the table.
His hands started to go numb. Since his native language isn't English I missed some of the inflection, so couldn't quite tell how serious the problem was. I cut some of the climbing webbing rather than untying. It was the first and only time I have cut a boy out of rope.
In following discussion steelCollar made it clear that he felt okay and would like the scene to continue. And I felt comfortable that his hands were okay. I retied them in front of him and into the tie around his ankles.
Afterwards we had good beer and good conversation.
