The Art of Tantalization - Cuff 'Em ficathon

Here we go my entry to the Cuff ‘em, Vamp ‘em, or Just Make ‘Em Come Already Kink and Cliché Multi-Fandom Challenge. I actually wrote two but one was so perfect for another Fullmetal Alchemist challenge that I sent it there instead (I have to remain anonymous until the voting in june at that contest so...it'll be awhile before it gets posted here). Needless to say, you see the ficathon this is for. Naturally, there is erotica included. Pretty much entirely NC-17. This is a Fullmetal Alchemist piece

Disclaimer - so not mine. All rights belong to Hiromu Arikawa et al Square Enix and funimition. I don’t make a profit
Rating - FRMAO (for graphic sex of a threesome nature)
Pairing - Roy/Riza/Maes
Summary - Riza has a special treat planned for Roy’s twentieth birthday
Time Line - Manga verse (more or less), just a few months after returning from Ishbal though some spoilers for what was revealed about Riza in ch 58.
Author’s Note #1 - This story contains sex with a threesome which quite naturally contains sex with boy/girl, boy/boy and boy/boy/girl. There's voyeurism, wax play and other kinks. If this bugs you, bugger off now and don’t yell at me for it later.
Author’s Note #2 - This was written for the Cuff ‘em, Vamp ‘em, or Just Make ‘Em Come Already Kink and Cliché Multi-Fandom Challenge. My challenge was to use one or more of the following prompts Eliade's: Intoxication and altered states (aphrodisiacs; drugs or alcohol; sex pollen/spores; substances or devices that create arousal, affection, or dependency; speaking or showing the truth while intoxicated; visionary states) Eliade's: Master and slave (erotic or romantic slavery, or otherwise; see Power issues) Kink: Voyeurism AND my friends added, verbal restraint, wax and feathers to it. Figures I sign up for a Kinkathon and my story isn’t kinky...it’s romantic. I just have to be perverse, you know. (Kinks used are in bold...though I think intoxication is in the ending)
Author's Note #3 - Thanks to evil_little_dog and mjules for the beta

HAPPY BIRTHDAY myfeetshowit !!!!

hope you have a great day

A day of little annoyances

So I get my tea and sit down for my morning tea and internet time and it won’t connect. After a few tries of it saying ‘no dial tone’ or ‘can’t connect’ I do as Earthlink says and I dial the number with my phone to make sure that my access # isn’t down. I hear a strange pulsatile something or other with the way it’s ringing but there is a dial tone.

Unable to connect, I decide well better call CVS and get my glucose test strips renewed since I’m going to town today. The pulsatile cutting in and out happens here. Hmmm, so maybe it’s not Earthlink. I call mom just to see if SHE can hear something strange on the line since CVS is automated. Yes, she hears the rhythmic cutting in and out.

So I call Verizon (always a recipe for disaster since their customer service sucks) I can’t even get the computer ‘assistant’ thing to work. Finally I scream customer service at her hoping the stupid computer will just connect me. It takes two tries because I think I frightened Hal 2000 into disconnecting me the first time. Verizon is of course horrified I don’t have a second line to call them from but they say they’ll call me back after testing this line. They do and say ‘hmm THERE is trouble. We think it’s inside your place. YOU don’t have our maintenance guarantee so it’ll be 45$ for us to drive out there and 100$/ the first half hour and 50$ every half hour after that. Oh I don’t bloody think so. BUT she says, it might be your mobile phone. Pull the jacks out and clear them then try again I’ll put the service call on hold until you try that.

I do and hell if it didn’t work. I call them back and said, okay that worked. You don’t need to come out and I’d like to buy that maintenance program (since I’m thinking this is only the beginning of the problem...) She cheerily connects me with customer service to do that. I wait on hold. I wait some more. I prep lunch. I cook lunch. I eat lunch. Forty minutes on hold has gone by. I hang up in disgust. Verizon you suck hard.

Then I head to town to do laundry. A migraine starts just as I’m leaving (probably caused by me resisting urges to kill Verizon). I take my pills. I get committed to laundry and the migraine decides pills schmills, I’m NOT to be ignored. I spend the entire two hours in the library (it’s next door as you all know by now) trying not to puke.

I also went to get a Shepard’s hook from Big Lots for my hanging basket. They had so many cool ones for weeks. I get there today and nothing but the ugly ones are left. Sigh. I buy it but I’m going to check out the even uglier ones at Walmart. If they’re cheaper this one is going back. Pouts. I should have bought it last week.

The highlight of my day, some people I DON’T know reading my Cuff ‘Em story. Thank you. Always glad to pull in new readers.

ETA - I forgot to mention Lifestyles Pavillion in Columbus. Flippy wants me to meet her at the HIM concert there. Okay so I dont' trust Ticketmaster to mail me tickets by thursday so I call the venue itself because on line it says that there is a will call at teh box office. Great. So I ask the girl are there any tickets. 'Yes, plenty.' Okay, i want to buy one and have it held at Will call. 'oh you can'at do that over the phone.' Um what? 'you can call ticketmaster or buy it online.' 'I don't have time for ticketmaser to mail it. 'you can print it out or buy it from us.' Online? 'no, that's only for ticketmaster. You can buy it direct from us.' But you just said I can't buy it over the phone. How DOES yyour will call work? 'you come here and buy it.' Um, but, that means I'm AT the venue. WHY would I do a will call if I'm THERE? I'd just take the ticket with me then. Why would I come in buy the ticket and then LEAVE it until the concert? You could hear the confused blinking over the line. I just told her i'd get it from ticketmaster (which I haven't)
