Ranma hugged the slave that was still sitting in his lap closer possessively.
He did like the idea of being able to see Akane in all her glory without getting immediately bashed for it. And he would like it if everyone could tell from the way that she dressed that Akane was his.
But he really disliked the idea of Akane going around without any clothes on where everyone could see. The world was full of perverts.
"No nudity," he told harshly, "I don't want any of the creeps at school or any other perverts see you naked! They ogle you to much as it is and if you start dressing in some revealing slave-outfit or just go entirely naked they might get even worse!"
He had not really intended to be that harsh to Akane, but just the thought of somebody like Kunou seeing Akane naked made him angry. And this costume thing had to be important for Akane if she had collected so many sexy outfits from their adventures. Ranma felt bad about shooting down her slave-dress suggestion like that.
"Just continue wearing your normal things for now," he told more conciliatory, "You know your school uniform and stuff. We can maybe later try some other outfits as long as they are not to revealing. And you can always dress down as much as you want around the house."
He gestured to the various pieces of clothing lying on Akane's bed next to where they were sitting.
"I understand," Akane acknowledged her masters orders.
Her owner did not want anybody else to see her naked. Her body was only to be exposed for his pleasure. She would continue to wear her school uniform outside. If she wanted to wear anything else she would have to submit it for his approval first and he would inspect it to ensure that it was not to revealing. Around the house the restriction did not apply and Ranma expected her to dress in sexy costumes or lingerie like the ones she had kept in her treasure chest or go naked like she had suggested earlier at her own discretion.
That freedom to choose her own dress inside the house was a two-edged sword as Ranma might be displeased if she kept being to prudish in her choices. She would have to remember to go naked often enough to avoid getting punished.
Punishment — That was another thing they had not covered yet. As her owner Ranma did not have to be consistent in how and when he disciplined her. He did not even need a reason at all, but it would be nice if there was some sort guideline so that she knew what to expect.
Ranma had not yet revealed what he would do if he caught her breaking any of his rules about talking and dressing.
Before she could bring herself to ask about it her master had already moved on and given her another question.
"What else is there to this master/slave thing normally?" Ranma asked.
She thought about it for a moment.
"Well, there are all kinds of rules and orders that a master could give his slave, potentially controlling every aspect of the slaves lives. You could have me ask for permission before using the toilet and make me tell you my innermost secrets," Akane explained, "you could forbid me touching myself without permission and have me tell you whenever I felt aroused. You could make me eat from a bowl on the floor or put a leash on me like a pet. You could forbid me using the furniture or entering some of the rooms."
Those weren't all things Akane wanted him to do but she felt that she had to give him a complete overview of slave rules that she had read about in some of her more racy novels and manga.
Ranma always told her that her thighs were fat and that she was built like a brick so she decided to add, "You could control what I eat and set up a diet for me to get me in shape or you could simply set me weight goals and discipline me if I don't reach them."
Since she had already mentioned discipline she might as well give him some ideas. And also name some things that she would not like that much.
"You could spank me to punish me when I have done something wrong or just when you feel like it. You could also use whips or paddles or many other things on me. You can bind me or tie me up or chain me down. Some masters would do things like shaving, piercing or tattooing their slaves or marking them as theirs by branding them like cattle," Akane enumerated.
Maybe she should not have mentioned the last one. Ranma's eyes had lightened up eagerly when she had told him about branding. From what she had heard it hurt far more than getting a piercing or a tattoo. She would not have thought Ranma that sadistic, he might be a stricter and stronger master than she had thought.
She waited with anticipation while Ranma considered his options.
Ranma considered what Akane had told him. That had been quite a lot and he was not quite clear on all of the things. Why would anyone want to shave their slave? Akane would look pretty stupid with a bald head.
He did like the idea of marking Akane as his even if branding perhaps wasn't the best way to go about these things.
The spanking seemed silly as Akane was no little kid anymore, but he had to admit that in the past she exasperated him to the point where he felt like putting her over his knee. It was something to keep in mind at least.
He tried to work through the options that Akane had given point by point.
Ranma did not really want to know anything about Akane going to the toilet. And while her body was now technically his having her ask for permission before touching it would be just silly. There was no need to ask him every time her nose was itching and she wanted to scratch. And the eating from a bowl on the floor or telling him when she had just woken up sounded stupid, too.
The other stuff sounded promising though. Akane always ran off and got herself into trouble. It would be good if he could get her to stop that. Ranma realized that he could not continue to hold Akane like he was doing now forever, but he wanted to keep her as close as he could. Even holding hands might not always be possible, but a leash could work. And if Akane would only tell him if there was a problem instead of being all stubborn he would be able to protect her better.
"I really don't think there is a need for most of that," he told her finally, "but I want you to tell me first if you plan to go off somewhere by yourself. I also want you to stop keeping things from me. If there is something I should know you should tell me. And the thing with the leash sounded like it could be useful to hold onto you."
"Yes, Master," Akane replied," there is a length of chain that came with the collar."
Ranma held her on his lap with one hand while reaching over to the object that Akane had pointed out with the other.
It was a light and not very strong chain that would allow Akane to walk a few steps apart from him. Just the sort of thing for walking together on a fence where holding hands would be difficult.
With a 'click' he fastened it to Akane's collar and gave it an experimental tug.
Akane looked at him wild eyed at being pulled from her place next to his chest.
He hugged her close again and told her, "This will work great. It would be best if you kept it in your bag when we go somewhere so that we will have it when we need it."
"Yes, Ranma," Akane agreed, "I will make sure to always bring the chain with me in case you want to put a leash on me."
What else had there been?
Oh, yes! The part about not using furniture and not being allowed into certain rooms. There certainly was no use for that sort of rule except....
"Akane, you are no longer allowed into the kitchen without my permission or being invited in by Kasumi and you aren't to attempt to cook without supervision either. No cooking anywhere without me, Kasumi or another competent cook watching over you," Ranma declared.
"Yes, Master," Akane answered grudgingly.
He had expected her to complain or refuse but apparently she was really serious about this.
He patted her on the back in approval.
The next bit had been something about discipline, getting in shape and making sure that Akane ate properly.
It made sense. If Akane was his now then he was responsible for her training. He would have to make sure that she ate enough, she was always eating very small portions for a martial artist. He would have to take over her training and even have to teach her some martial arts. If Akane was serious about following his orders she might be disciplined enough to make teaching her actually worthwhile.
"Since your body belongs to me now," he reasoned, "I will have to make sure that it stays in shape. I will talk with Kasumi about your meals and I will train you. I will do my best to make sure you stay in form. We will see what we can do about your martial-arts. If you stay disciplined and follow my orders from now on I am sure that I can teach you a thing or too."
"Yes, Ranma," She replied happily, "If I am a good girl and do as you say you will teach me martial-arts."
The final part of her suggestions had been full of silliness but there had been something in it that had given Ranma an idea.
Tying Akane down. Often when Ranma went to fight someone or left for some other reason Akane would follow him and get herself in danger. There was also the problem that Akane kept getting abducted the moment he turned his back. There had to be some way to make her stay put. Just tying her up might be counter-productive as she would be even less capable of defending herself and easy pickings for kidnappers. Chaining Akane to something might work. He would have to think about it some more.
"You are my property now," he told her, "and I don't want you to get stolen, so I might need to chain you down if I leave you alone for some time."
The rest about shaving or piercing had not sounded like something Ranma would want to do to Akane.
"I think that this was all for now. We can add more stuff later if we have to. I will try my best to be a good master for you and you will be a good slave. And if you are bad I can always spank you like a little girl." Ranma said ending their session with a small joke.
"Yes, Master," Akane agreed from where she was still securely snuggled into his lap.
