Nemo is a glorious powerful feline beast, hard edged and great-hearted, of multiple genders, species and time periods. Nemo's a trustworthy comrade, inspired and inspiring, a partner in crime and debauchery, wise and wild and wonderful...

Heidi will put the nerd in your alert and hair on your chest.

Heidi is the nerd in my herd.
Devilishly sexy, wickedly intelligent,
and dangerous with power tools, this
woman is a force to be reckoned with.
I shudder at the thought of her cap gun.
Play party with no lube? Heidi's your
gal. Stuck in Death Valley with a
flat? Heidi can help. Need to write a
paper on obscure Medieval torture
methods and their applications? You've
found your woman. I am forever amazed
at the things the delightful Mz. H can
and will do. She's certainly saved my
lily white, biophobic, cranky,
wisenheimer ass more times than I can
count. I love her and you should love
her too...just don't make any promises
for when the revolution comes down.

nemo... what to say. when i talk with this non-cowboy-pirate-leaning-sexy-and-smart-as-hell hottie, i learn something new each time. Compassionate as all get out, as wonderful a friend as one could hope for, and adventurous to boot. Be it in a library geeking out (sexy sexy sexy), in a field spotting every inch of wildlife visible to the naked eye, or in a dungeon wielding a self-crafted impliment of torture, this one always manages to surprise and delight.

Feminization Play class with Mss. Tatiana Belodyne--smOdyssey
(events » other)
Sunday, March 9, 2008 - 1:30 PM
smOdyssey, Inc. Presents --
Feminization Play
with Mistress Tatiana Belodyne
WHEN: Sunday, March 9, 2008
TIME: 2pm - 5pm (Doors open at 1:30pm)
WHERE: 1185 Norman Ave, Santa Clara , CA 95054
COST: Members: $20
smOdyssey & reciprocal non-profit kink org. members: $15
(You do not have to be a member to attend!)
~ Walk-ins are welcome! ~
Silky slips? Tight panties? Lipstick? Corsets or girdles? Pink ruffles?
Quintessentially feminine signifiers can be especially erotic on those who are not normally expected to wear them!
Mistress Tatiana will explore some of the hottest hows and whys of feminization play. Feminization can range from deeply humiliating edge play, to a tool to access innate Goddess power, to intense control, to transgressive gender modification. It can be about S/M, about D/s or strictly about fetish.
Mistress Tatiana will cover techniques for playing with presentation and gender, head games, safety issues, feminization from a feminist perspective, deconstructionist gender play, and some of her hot feminization bondage tricks. Of course, she thinks no feminization class would be complete without just a little bit of the reverse, so do not be too surprised if she brings a strap-on! And yes, you _can_ look forward to her signature informative, entertaining demos with male and female demo models!
This class is open to all genders, and is appropriate for people who play with feminization regularly, those who have never tried it, and everyone in between!

Spanking and Paddling class with Mistress Tatiana
(events » other)
Sunday, April 20, 2008 - 1:30 PM
FantasyMakers Academy presents:
Spanking and Paddling : Technique, Physiology and Fun!
with Mistress Tatiana Belodyne
Sunday, April 20, 2008
2:00 to 5:00pm. Doors open at 1:30.

Does that classic spanking line, -This hurts me more than it does you-, *have* to be true? Is the sweet spot people talk about metaphor or anatomy? Is OTK (over-the-knee) spanking still feasible if the bottom is bigger than the Top?
Spanking is an extremely versatile skill, fitting well in scene contexts from domestic petticoat discipline to sensual slap and tickle to heavy impact play. Spankings can range from the chaste to the salacious to the actively sexual. Spanking can be one of the most intimate and nurturing forms of play, and yet can be done anywhere, even without elaborate tools, toys, equipment or preparation.
This class will cover the physiology of spanking response and spanking anatomy in reference to the Top as well as the bottom. Depending on the ritual that surrounds it, spanking can be used as an effective and erotic warm-up or as a profoundly transformative atonement ritual. The class will cover how to choose spanking positions for ease as well as effect (and effectiveness), how to pace a spanking, and ways to avoid marks, or to leave intentional mementos of the experience. Mistress Tatiana will go over spanking techniques and safety, multiple-partner spankings, and the use of bare or gloved hands, of paddles of various materials and of some of the other classic tools of the spanker, including slippers, spatulas, wooden spoons and coat hangers.
… And yes, you can look forward to her signature informative, entertaining demos with models of various genders! This class is open to all genders, and is appropriate for people who spank and or get spanked regularly, those who have never tried it, and everyone in between!
Students will have a chance to get spanked and to spank under her expert guidance. Please wear comfortable clothing and, if you are willing to get spanked on your bare bottom, appropriate underwear that will allow access to your butt cheeks while keeping your genitalia covered.

about me
I like moving between social worlds, but I like being in the desert or the forest best of all. Lazy but prepared, judgemental but compassionate, kinky but cuddly, and pretty sociable for an introverted medievalist. Lately I've been glued to the saddle of my motorcycle--I love the pleasure and danger of them. I've fallen off of a cliff, wrecked a bike and been run over by an SUV, and have been fallen on top of by horses; I wear scars from axes, knives, machetes, gravel, leeches and scalpel blades, and usually have a bruise on me somewhere. Now, for a change, I'm learning more about this communication and connection thing, too. Learning insight about real live people (not to mention actually communicating with 'em) is harder than researching those long gone. And being clear and present? Gulp...that, comrades, that I'm working on.
