A/N: SPOV

"Um….yes…" She pulled out his wand from her boot. He made a note to get her a proper wand sheath, perhaps as a present. He always liked knowing where his wand was, and didn't care to stash it within his robes. When he was going into a dangerous fight, he preferred to have his wand in his left gauntlet for a fast draw and it made it ready for casting a shield charm.

"There were a lot of the activities that I was curious about. I knew what they were, but not really how they could be applied or how I would react when they were. I was surprised to see electricity on the list and I am probably most curious about that….but then there also seemed to be so many items to be hit with and I don't understand how they all aren't the same or how they wouldn't just hurt."

Severus smirked at her question, ready with an answer. He even saw her squirm a little, then cleared her throat in an attempt to gather either courage or resolve. He wasn't sure which one it was yet.

"I also didn't know what potion play, riding the horse..." she paused momentarily, as if forcing herself to remember something that she would have rather written down, "…forniphilia, or predicament bondage entailed."

"Nymphadora, just as there are different ways of kissing someone, each derivation is preferred differently by the people involved. At times a light kiss with the softest lips can take your breath away, whereas in the middle of passion, your mouth may be yearning for a bold, thrusting kiss. I find myself a fan of the whole spectrum, from light to intense. It depends on the circumstances. Some implements are designed to sting to the point where it cannot be used too long without tearing flesh, whereas the far other end of the spectrum is a delightful thud, almost flat yet crushing. Floggers can be designed with pointed tips so that they can produce both types of impact, and it is dependent on how it is weld. I will be happy to show you the difference, when I have full mobility of my arm.

"As for your definitions, potion play is obviously the use of potions, albeit consensually. Imagine being given something that made all pain register as pleasure, or a potion that restricts your ability to orgasm until you are given an antidote, no matter how wickedly I entice you. I used to be hired to design lust potions keyed specifically to a partner for playtime, after having confirmed with both parties that they had agreed to this. It was interesting to get to watch them use that particular potion, since it made her wanton like a bitch in heat." His eyes seemed to glaze over in the memory, considering it was his first experience with BDSM and the idea of fulfilling a woman's needs by tying her up and pleasing her greatly intrigued him. He learned a lot about himself with that couple over a few months, and eventually sought the BDSM community and sought training for himself.

"Riding the horse was a type of punishment; imagine straddling something sharp and at a height where you had to decide to discomfort your feet or your nethers. I'd only do this in a way to pleasure rather than harm you, but you'd soon see how torturous pleasure can be.

"Fornifilia can best be described as human furniture. It is objectifying and more in keeping with a service submissive than a sexual one. If I wanted, I could have a fair boy here on his hands and knees to serve as an ottoman so I could put my feet up while reading the latest potions journals. Or read to him from Tales of Beedle the Bard. I should add that I do not have a submissive of any type, however.

"And as for predicament bondage, it is as the name suggests. Bondage based on the predicament or bondage designed to create a predicament. I once saw a demonstration of two naked female submissives each in their own kneeling position, facing away from each other, each with a chain running from their collars to the wrists of the other submissive. They each were to be as still as possible while making the other submissive reach orgasm by rubbing the length of chain against their opponent's quim. Lost twenty Galleons on that wager." Damn Lucius,he thought, remembering to never wager against that man.

He looked at her and was amazed that she hadn't been scared off by any of this.

"I'm glad to hear that you haven't asked why someone would be into such perverse activities. But I must also warn you that due to the sensual nature of how I Dominate someone, it would easily become sexual. You, of course, have every right to cease any play with a safeword, but you should not expect me to bring your pleasure in my certain ways without wanting to," he wet his lips with his tongue as he decided on the proper words, "fully satisfy both of us. Which brings us to an unpleasant point in this conversation.

"Members within the Order would not understand the nature of this relationship. I advise you to not even bother trying to bring it up. Should you wish to continue pursuing Lupin, I shall not stand in the way, nor would it affect us. People involved with BDSM frequently cannot engage in such activities with their spouse due to the partner's perceived stigma or unwillingness to engage in such acts.

"I am willing to brew you contraception potions or take them to myself if you desire. My only demand is that you submit yourself only to me. Is this agreeable?"
