This post is for prompts that focus on crossovers between various slavery AUs, with the crossover wizards.

Please put the use name of your slave Matt in the subject line of your comment eg. "Feral: Fuck or 'die' AGAIN!"

I'll move a couple of prompts over to start us off, but feel free to ignore them and put your own.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Do you want me to try to make the tea?"

"No, I don't think that would be a good idea if you're still having balance issues." But she still smiled at him, gentle and affectionate.

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

She moved around, heating the water up and sprinkling the tea leaf and dried fruit mixture into the infuser, and while she was working said, "What do you think you'll like to work on once you don't have the steeking class to do anymore?"

[(Anonymous)]

"I want to get back to the knitting I planned when I first joined the household, a vest for Jamie, then a lopapeysa for me, then a blouse for Ivannya, something else for me, then a sweater with lace panels in the arms for Hendrick." He was pouting a bit, but why had Hendrick thought he'd be able to complete so many big projects so fast when he had so much else he had to do?

"That sounds like a great deal of work," Marnie said, passing him the plate of fruits, crackers, and cheeses, "Perhaps to your household, they are completely unfamiliar with how long construction of whole garments can take. Many times, when I used to quilt by hand, anyone not deeply familiar with the craft would be amazed that it could take months or years. I had one person who tried to commission a specially embroidered quilt for three months. My master absolutely refused, thankfully."

"Yeah, and I was knitting a lot more at Danny's, because I had time for it, and I could switch between projects more there as well."

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"You may find yourself working extraordinarily fast after you aren't so exhausted and overwhelmed all the time," she observed mildly. "Or you might work slowly. In any case, it will be more relaxing and rewarding." Toffee was one of hers who found direct and easy confidence reassuring rather than infuriating. "What do you think you'll switch to, then? I assume you'll be putting away the steeking projects until you're ready to re-try the class?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Yes. I started a vest for Jamie when I joined the household, but I barely got an inch into it before the steeking projects pushed it out of the way."

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"It will feel good to work on it, just as much as you like," she said softly. "What else should I tell them to back down on a little? Have they been bothering you about sex, or perhaps pushing your fears too much?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"No, they've been good about sex and waiting for me, and they're careful about the things that scare me. It's just...the exhaustion issue."

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

She nodded thoughtfully. "I am glad," and Toffee trembled a little, even as he visibly fought to stay calm. "Okay, now I want you to try the cookie tray," she coaxed gently, holding it for him to sample. "These were all made by pets situated at the Academy, trying out recipes and improving on existing ones. There are five flavors."

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

And each flavour looked different. He took one of each, nibbling at the first - earl grey tea and lavender.

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

Marnie smiled at his willingness to try new things. She knew Toffee could become quite withdrawn and afraid when he was stressed out; he had confided to her that he'd stopped trying to do new things a few weeks ago, and was afraid of even mundane changes in his routines, like new foods or the prospect of a new pair of socks arriving. She also worried about his propensity to deny his trauma until he was too deep into a flashback to deny it any longer; it would only hurt him deeply the longer it went on.

But he ate the cookies slowly, nibbling and biting at them gently flavor by flavor until going back and finishing them off.

"Which do you like the most?" she asked, keeping her tone light and conversational. They'd gotten over the first hurdle.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"These, the ones with ginger and cardamon in them. I like the mild spiciness to them."

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

She blinked a little, and then felt a warm pleasure. "Oh? I baked those ones myself, to encourage the newer Academy pets," she said. "I'm glad you like them; I used toasted cardamom and ground it myself." It was a rare thing that she got to cook, but it had been rather fun.

"Now, would you like to do your calming meditation now?" she asked softly.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"I need it, and then do you need me to wear the headphones while you clear your afternoon?"

"Yes, please if you wouldn't mind."

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

She nodded, thinking of the calls she'd need to make. "Now, get yourself comfortable, and settle in whatever position feels safe to you," she said warmly. "I want you to imagine a cabin on a boat on the ocean, the gentle rocking of the waves moving as you lie warm and safe in the bed, secure and comfortable. You're in clean pajamas, and the sounds of the ocean calm you.." she coaxed him, and he seemed to mostly relax, but then he went very quiet and wary, like a rabbit about to run, and his face turned confused and terrified.

"I'm lost, I'm alone..."

(OOC: I find it very hard to recreate a background for a response you write my character having at times, can you please try to stop deciding how my characters react to yours?)

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

She carefully changed imagery. "You're warm, and surrounded in the cabin by the soft breaths of everyone else sleeping..."

(OOC I'm sorry, I didn't intend to do that, I will stop.)

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Master and all of my pet sibs are with me." He smiled at the thought.

(OOC: Thank you I appreciate it)

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

She smiled and went with the theme. "And you know that no matter how much the boat rocks, you'll all still be safe and together, warm and wrapped in comfort, and the rhythm soothes you deep in your bones."

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"With my family, no one can hurt us." He agreed with a contented smile.

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

"And the ocean sings you back to sleep with them, keeping you in happy dreams," she coaxed. She was worried about his sleep--little sleep and highly interrupted sleep made being mentally well incredibly difficult.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

And he drifted off to sleep to the sound of Instructor Marnie's voice.

(OOC: Skip to her waking him up for lunch?)

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

Marnie moved around quietly, making phone calls and rescheduling meetings by email, and then she filled out the withdrawal forms and by the time she had completely cleaned out her files, it was time to send for lunch.

She walked over to Toffee, sitting with him and gently pinching his side to wake him. "Toffee, it's time for lunch," she said softly.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

He sat up, blinking sleep from his eyes.

"What are we having?" He asked with a happy smile.
