    Since I see that Ariel has issued a pleading response to today’s video, I thought we should seek the opinion of the forum members.

    Has Ariel shown sufficient contrition?

    Should she be allowed to return to her status as the Restrained Elegance resident slavegirl in training?

    Or should she have to undergo a test to prove that her behaviour has improved before re-instatement?

    Hywel.

    I think she needs to undergo a test to prove that her behaviour has improved before re-instatement. But the question is what kind of test and should Sammie and Kate be involved her test. Although I think Sammie has a small part in Ariel acting the way she did goating her on. But that was just a very small part. Ariel being cockey like she is she never though about what could happen. I think something in public should be done again to restore her to RE slavegirl.

    oOH Mark…

    I am liking your thinking! Maybe Sammie and I could give Ariel instructions on a mobile phone while she is in public in her collar, and she has to carry out the instructions WITHOUT QUESTION while Hywel films it…

    That would be fun….!

    Oh dear Ariel. I’ve just watched the video, and there’s no doubt in my mind you need to undergo a test(s) to prove yourself worthy to regain the elite title of “Restrained Elegance slavegirl in trainingâ€

    From my reply to Ariel’s plea:

    *********

    I will watch the video shortly, but did anyone else notice a comment Ariel made in the chat room on 18th Feb 2008?

    Quoting from memory, so the words may not be completely correct, but the sense should be.

    Ariel said that she was very glad, every single day, that she threw Kate’s food around during the trip to France.

    *********

    Kate it is possible you are being to kind to Ariel. I still feel that a proper apology to you for her behaviour is an absolute must before considering her reinstatement.

    Plus Hywel deserves a proper apology as well. Look at everything he had to put up with during the first RE chat room?

    *radiates concerned innocence*

    Just reading the poll options, I am rather amused by “Ariel should be allowed to call herself Queen Ariel at all times”. Remembering some of the earlier video’s of her time in France, she is already doing so! Even while proclaiming her role of slave she is also proclaiming her role of Queen.

    Perhaps there should be an extra poll option, Ariel is punished every time she calls herself Queen Ariel in the presence of either Hywel or Kate?

    After all, someone has to stand up for and defend these two long suffering innocents!!! *innocent expression number 37*

    *wonders how long I can get away with claiming Kate and Hywel are innocent*

    I’ve no reason to change my mind: of course Ariel should be allowed to call herself a queen since she is. But I’m not allowed to vote, since whenever I try I can read “You have already voted on this poll”, which isn’t true. This is censorship and dictatorship and I protest against it with all my energy!
    Taken more seriously, Hywel’s note on the members home page is worrying. All this should be taken for granted, I think.
    One may decide a test is in order, but to have Ariel wear her collar in public is neither sane nor safe, it’s playing with fire in a rather childish manner, imho. Of course she’d be too keen to take the challenge up, but Hywel should show who is the boss and resume the slave training thread at last. Lest he is not the boss. After all, perhaps the queen doesn’t reign only, perhaps she governs too. Worrying, very worrying.

    Hywel’s note, to me it makes sense he has posted this. I suspect only a tiny handful of site members ever pass through this forum, or read it.

    A lot of people are very ignorant about bondage, BDSM, and what goes with it. Against this background of ignorance and misinformation restating the “obvious” is often a good thing.

    Being interested in bondage really is NOT the same thing as being informed on safe words, respect, safety, or anything else.

    Having watched the movie I actually found it less unsettling than some of the earlier parts, BUT that is due to having chatted with Ariel on the chat room, and having seen her on the forum. I have a better concept of her as a person as a result, more context for the video. Plus I have Hywel’s reassuring words in my head.

    One question does occur to me though. Does anyone have any form of definition of the term “Restrained Elegance slave girl”?

    That sounds silly at first, but think about it. What is actually meant by this?

    In the video look at 3:15 to 3:20, it seems that to Ariel the terms Queen and official slave girl are interchangeable. Hence I am wondering at the definition of slave girl. I suspect that, as always, if you ask 6 people you will get 6 different definitions.

    So perhaps an “official” definition would help?

    tancrede a collar in public, it really depends on what is meant by this. Stand in the middle of a deserted beach in winter, with no one around, wearing a collar under your coat… I hope you would agree this is both public and safe.

    In isolation a collar is simply a piece of jewellery. I see your point, and safety, location, and actions all need to be carefully considered. At the same time I somehow feel that a collar, in isolation, should not be a problem. Perhaps I am showing my own ignorance?

    Is a scarf around your neck a problem? What about a choker? A neckless? I wear two loose chains around my neck, they hold jewellery. I have been wearing them in public, sometimes on show, for years. I am simply asking where is the line drawn?

    A collar with a lead I would say was a very different issue, due to the lead.

    Imploring the members to vote her back as RE resident slavegirl [in training], but as feline points out (I missed it the first time, had to turn the volume up!) she comes out with –

    “I want to be the queen”
    “I like my tiara”

    I don’t remember queens being mentioned in the definitions I’ve read of “slavegirl”.

    Thanks very much for the interesting post and associated question.

    I have just watched the video, and frankly it did not seem very clear to me that Ariel had any conception of why she was demoted from RE resident slave girl in training to pet.

    Everything she said was self-centred (e.g. I don’t like this, I liked being “Queen” etc). Self-centred to the point of narcissism.

    If the whole experience of being demoted to pet is to be effective at all in informing her ongoing training, does not she need to acknowledge her appalling behaviour, and spend some time reflecting upon this?

    One caveat, however: in a sense, her punishment is unhelpful because she is forbidden to speak as part of it. In my view, she needs to first reflect, then second confess up to her appalling behaviour in great detail. Then (and only then) should she receive a punishment for it. I have a specific punishment in mind, but don’t want to get distracted on what that should be until we get past stages one and two…

    What do you think?

    I don’t see how one could resist such a convincing plea :;):

    So I vote for reinstalling Ariel to her status as resident slavegirl.

    I vote for a puplic collar test – cant be that dangerous as tancrede thinks – worst scenario is imbarresing – not dangerous.
    Dident have to be a place whith thousends of people – just the potential of a few people thinking what is she wearing.
    The mobile phone remote control will be great – for example

    Remove your scarf
    put up your hair
    play the ring while walking
    ask guy for directions (to nearest locksmith??)
    But the other girls could be solidaric – Kate – and wear other nice things from re toy collection

    Could make great pics – to me more importent than Ariels status in the game – on the other hand – the resident slave girl collar IS out of this world.

    Cheers to all

    Tancrede, I’m not sure why it is showing you as having voted, unless you were somehow logged in as guest rather than as yourself.

    Anyway, I’ve got to agree with Hasler- I don’t really see that wearing a collar in public counts as insane or unsafe. It is, after all, only a form of jewellry, and not *really* that different from a normal choker. Sure, it locks on, but of course we always have safety procedures in place. Ariel always knows where the key is. Last time it was in my pocket- so should anything happen to me she could have unlocked herself, but it is hard for me to think of anything where having the collar on would actually be dangerous. I wouldn’t have said it was worse than wearing a corset, for example, and lots of people do that to all sorts of events.

    Cheers, Hywel.

    I voted for Ariel being put to a test, but I don’t think much of “wearing a collar in public” as that test.

    What I was thinking was that if Ariel wants to be the Resident Slavegirl In Training, then the test should be for her to dance. A slave-dance, in chains, with only drums (or possibly other percussion instruments) to provide the music.

    Perhaps Kate & Sammie can lounge on cushions to watch (bound, or playing the drums, or both).

    I’m not much of a video fan, but I think this would make a good video.

    [A further thought: To make it a real test, have Ariel’s chains for the dance include a chain leash attached to a ring set in the floor – short enough that she can’t stand up (3 to 4 feet long). That way, the dance, and the test, will be an interesting one.]

    I have spoken with women that never took their collar of for several months. They seemed quite healthy to me.

    The only real dangerous place I can think of is a magnetic resonance tomograph – fortunately, you don’t meet those on a daily basis! :tongue

    It looks like Ariel hasn’t been learning anything about being Restrained Elegance Slavegirl has she. I have been watching Ariel and seems that her biggest fear is in public with a collar on in plan site. Sorry Ariel I think you need to earn your collar and position back and in public with your pet collar on.

    Kind off a conclusion might be that the dear Ariel has to mentally prepare for another public apperence whith a sligt touch of steel around her lovely neck….
    And by the way Pling – you could join her…

    Pling volunteering is in writing, its a matter of public record now! 🙂

    I do wonder though, Ariel clearly needs to go through a test, but what about Pling? Has she done anything bad that deserves her being tested like that?

    Ariel has shown real progress since her first training, but she’s still got a bit to go before she’s the finished article. I thought the bedtime video was the best – I thought she really demonstrated that she’d learned a few things. Keep up the good work.

    #12274

    Why not require Ariel to visit a Renn Faire and volunteer for the stocks? Imagine milady dressed in regal gown and tiara, tender soles bare and exposed to passers-by who are invited to touch, tickle, or apply a stroke of the bastinado as they please? Hywel would be at the ready, camera and video in hand….

    Assuming Ariel does eventually return to the exalted position of Official Slave Girl, I have one or two modest suggestions for her.

    First, she should request permission to speak before actually speaking. I’d suggest something like the Begging 45 position, which she would hold until told no or given permission to speak. Speaking of which, I’ve noticed that when she begs she frequently covers her breasts with her hands. Bad Ariel!

    Secondly, when she actually is allowed to speak again, I’d like to see a new word added to her vocabulary. That word is ‘master’, and everything she says should end with that word.

    I think these two simple suggestions, if implemented, might prevent Ariel from developing another attitude problem should she regain her place.

    Interesting, very interesting. I can see the thinking here, although I am not sure I want to be in the same room as Ariel when she hears this suggestion :;):

    I am not sure this would be enough to stop her getting another attitude, although I do admire the positive thinking and optimism at work here 🙂

    I am not sure that showing up in public with a collar on is really a test. As a slavegirl isn’t considered normal to have the collar on in public or not?

    feline – Ariel wants the perks of being the resident slave girl but has always seemed unwilling to publicly acknowledge her status. I’m hopeful – but by no means confident – that my suggestions might help her get over that reluctance.

    Oh good lord……………. Just had the shoot of absolute HELL, which I submitted to in the hope that I’ll get my collar back. This is what I would like to say.

    Sammie B, you are a bad lady and cannot BELIEVE you helped Hywel come up with such very cruel ideas for me
    :angry:

    Hywel, will honestly do everything you say from now on. And be very polite to all the models. Honestly. Sir.

    Brrrrr.

    Wow, lets just take a minute to make a note of that quote for future reference..

    Am I allowed to ask which locations / tasks were set or shall I just wait for the sets?

    Hi Andersv, welcome to the forum (although I think thats one of Ariels jobs to say.. :oo ) Fair point, I tend to agree, suspect most of the D/s people here are a little confused by the fuss but its kinda fun. Even stranger is that the pure bondage types around here tend to refer to Ariel as the “queen” :banghead . Assuming I recognise your avatar then I stumbled across your stuff on Deviant recently, very nice work 🙂

    Looking forward to seeing the sets and any previews (?), oh and nice work Sammie! :love

    Mmm… Ariel Anderssen, Sammie B, central London, collar…

    No previews (was video only), watch this space for the new trials of Ariel Anderssen! I should get it edited for May.

    Hywel.
