Most of our interactions could be perceived as very mainstream, but that doesn't mean that they are. The undercurrent of all of them is that he is in charge. A funny story from this past weekend, his mom, dad, brother and his family were in the area camping at a lake just outside of town. We spent the days with them and it was quite obvious that Alandra and I do a lot of things for him. His brother, who I was meeting for the first time, has quite a few of the same mannerisms. They both have this air of authority and confidence that makes me want to obey. We were sitting around the fire and he tells me to get up and get something for him. Just as I start to stand up, his brother says "Kyra, sit down." in a very direct tone. Automatically I sit, then I realize, fuck I don't have to obey him. I am not sure how many people there noticed my confusion, but they spoke so similarly that to obey one felt like disobeying my Lord. Camping with family is a very mainstream activity and yet it didn't change who had the authority in our relationship, even if his brother was trying to muddy the waters. *g* Knight's Kyra
