With my 100 posts now firmly under my belt, now that I know the story better I decided to visit the
B&G Questionnaire and retake it to see if there are major changes compared to my first
answers a full two years ago.
1 - Who is your favourite character so far, and why?
Zack of course! Even outside my lust, I've always appreciated him for the role that he took when first introduced to the story. His willingness to take Jeremy under his wing and protect him and his considerable ability in making the troubled guy eat from his hand so fast should impress even the not-so-Zack enamoured fans. His good looks, hot body clad in leather and wide smelly feet only cemented my attraction after that.
2 - Who is your least favourite character, and why?
I think that 2 years ago I picked Phil for this one. Don't get me wrong, I still dislike sneaky Philip for his deeds, but hating him would be punishing petty crime while letting first-degree kidnapping fly under the radar. You know where this is going:
Brad! Already unlikeable because of the kidnapping, but even more so for the reason of Steven's abduction, betrayal and torment: a swimming title. Add to that the physical abuse and some bold moves made to show his dominance ( taking Steven for a swim while bound, gagging Steven in the dead of night without Nick's knowledge at the possible risk of choking) and you got yourself some pretty strong reasons for crowning Brad with this unsavoury crown of 'most hated'. I will say that the mismatch between his reaction-seeking deeds and Jeremy's characteristic quietness and keeping to himself can give some logical understanding for his mistreatment of the guy. I'm not saying that it justifies the abuse in any way, but it gives it some backing besides 'psychopath guy'. With another sub, Brad might've done better and not let so much of the ugly come out. He is maybe redeemable, but for the moment still my least favourite.
3 - If you could enter the story and permanently take on the role of any of these characters, who would you be?
Steven! Was tempted to pick Jeremy as he does end up being Zack's boi, but the road to that point is rough: from his upbringing to what he suffered under Brad. Though Zack is the white light at the end of the tunnel that might make the journey lighter, I wouldn't see myself being able to go through all that and come out still a one-piece human at the end. Steven too suffered at the beginning and being abducted isn't really something pro-mental health, but Jeremy did get the shorter end of the stick. Steven also gets tied up the most and has savoured the socks of most of the guys we know of so yet again cementing my pick.
4 - If you're a sub, who would you want as your Master if you had to choose between Nick, Zack and Shawn?
Zack. The first question and my many other comments on B&G are arguments enough for this pick.
5 - D'you have a favourite scene so far? If so, which one?
Definitely
The Game! Such an interesting way of gagging a sub, giving them the illusion of freedom; there wasn't really ever a way for them to escape ungagged, nor was there ever a
good choice as all socks were foul ( though some were truly in a sadder state than the others). Truly capitalised on the appeal of a sock gag used for convenience and of its randomness which makes it so hot. Loved it! Also, I don't remember the exact chapter, but Zack tricking Steven into accepting his sock for a gag by making him think Nick was coming to gag him was a strong contender!
6 - What is your opinion regarding the Steven/Nick relationship?
A caring and healthy relationship built on a somewhat rocky and unusual start. A bit too controlling for my liking, but it works for them. I hope they'll enjoy as much quiet time as they have had lately so Steven will be able to tell Nick all that he has already told us through his private diary entries to make the relationship even closer.
7 - If you could be tied up and gagged by any one of these guys, who would you choose? Where would you be tied up and how?
Zack again. Strong ropework, a plethora of mouthstuffing opportunities and an unlimited amount of teasing jabs make for the perfect experience. The privacy of his bedroom would be a great place for these shenanigans. I'm a simple guy! Being mummified like a worm with rope and having my mouth stuffed with one of his Wigwams is enough for me! Then I could be a plaything for him and the perfect cuddle partner.
The locker room of his hockey team could also provide a place for my restriction. I could be gagged with either his sweaty after-game jockstrap or socks and tied so I take up as little space as possible: a perfect way to be shoved in a locker and be found the next day or stuffed in his hockey bag and taken home. Maybe his teammates would accompany him in taking me down! ( now that I'm writing this, I realllllly wanna find out who Zack's hockey teammates and Nick's construction-worker friends are!)
8 - If you had to rank the characters in order of whose socks you'd most wanna be gagged with, how would that list look?
I'll try and do this one in Steven style:
Zack's score:+10
He
really profits from the fact I
really like him. In my defence, I really want to try a truly pungent sockgag to determine if I like such odorous wads or not and his cheesy bundles are the ones I'm willing to try! Even though...of GOD that sock cheese!
Kyle's score:+9
A sockgag I'd accept any day! By all accounts not annoyingly tasteless or toxically putrid; the best middle ground where the gag still serves the humiliating role of having an unpleasant taste while not maxing you puke your brains out. Would've been my top pick had it not been for mister white knight above.
Chris' score:+7
Once again a fair and honest sockgag if there ever was one. Chris' socks are a tad bit worse than Kyle's which might've been a plus in my books had it not been for the fact I simply don't really like Chris that much. Don't get me wrong, he didn't do anything bad, and he's far gentler than I'd expect of a college hunk but besides his calculated measure compared to his mates, he's just that: a college hunk. But ripe socks for gags are ripe socks for gags,
let no man dare question that.
Joey's score:+5
Much like the previous two guys on here ( I hope it's not a pattern) a
'meh you know really hot guy but meh' with great socks! Having the third ( I think) least strong foot odour from here it's strange he's found his way so high on my list. You can attribute that solely to his looks MY GOD does that man look gorgeous! His socks are surprisingly sweaty so I take that as a plus and I'm sure that should he loosen up on his sock-changing habits we can see a second Kyle. His willingness to have his own socks used as stuffing for Steven that one time also helps his case.
Nick's score:+2
We get to the guy with
the smelly socks,
the renowned Nick with the smelly socks and feet and we're still on the plus side. Surprising! Of course, he's hot and of course, I have a thing for smelly feet, but I attribute his position more to my lack of desire to be gagged with a sub's socks than my willingness to have my mouth contaminated with the Chernobyl fabrics hugging his feet for so many hours.
Shawn's score:+1
Just barely making it to the positive side. Much the same reason for his cousin's position, but the college hunk finds himself a point lower due to me admittedly liking Nick more. He's the OG.
Big Mike's score:0
Poor Big Mike, not even
Sockgaggedman wants his socks. They're smelly without having any of my attraction for the guy to lie like " Oh yeah 17 rating on the foot odour chart pfffff! I can stand that!'
Joshua's score:-2
Never found the idea of being gagged with a subby or switchy guy's socks appealing. Humiliating, like any old sock gag, but
not hot.
Steven's score:-4
Same reasons as above, but Joshua can be dommy, and a good dom at that, at times. Steven has dominated around Jeremy from time to time, but I'd definitely complain a great deal if I'd have my screams muffled down by his foot wads.
Jeremy's score:-7
Same as Steven same as Joshua but times 10.
Brad's score:-9
Complete opposite to my first guys: here we have some perfect socks for gagging but a shitty guy. A waste of a good gag, but that's Brad's fault. Had I been gagged with his socks but not by him and with him somewhere like an island in the Pacific then sure, bring them on!
Phil's score:-10
Something along the lines of Brad, but both the guy and the socks are shitty! 16-foot odour is not toxic warfare, but that smell stacks up over the course of A MONTH! Sorry, but I'm not looking to catch some disease.
9 - If you could have a threesome with two of the characters, who would be your bedmates for the night?
Classic, I know, but Zack and Nick! No amount of 2 years can change my wish to be squished in a Zack-Nick sandwich!
10 - If you had to share a thick mummy-style sleeping bag with one of these guys, who would you choose to spend the night with?
Zack! Zack! Zack! Predictable but enjoyable for me.
11 - If you could tickle or be tickled by any one of these guys, who would you choose as your tormentor/victim?
Tickled by Zack. My loyalty to him is kind of a curse here since he's sadistic with his tickling; no need for a gag, after a minute or two I'll be left with no air. I'd also like to tickle him to some extent, he seems like he'd take the laugh ( then tickle me senseless but that's the bargain)
12 - For fans of facesitting, which three guys would you most want sitting on your face?
SKIP
13 - For fans of rimming, which three guys would you most wanna try rimming?
SKIP
14 - For fans of body worship, which three guys would you most wanna tongue-bathe and lap up?
SKIP- only really a fan of foot worship and that halfheartedly for lack of practice.
15 - How did you find this story? (Google search, forum browsing, suggestion from a friend, etc)
I think I googled something along the lines of ' man+sock+gag+stories' and went to images where the photo of the many deliciously dirty socks from A NIGHT UNDER SHAWN'S FEET. Two years later and here I am.
16 - Which kinks presented in this story turn you on or excite you the most? (ex: rimming, mummification, handgagging, etc)
All things regarding socks, feet and shoes: gags, sniffing...Also sleeping bags and handgags.
17 - If you had to choose which apartment to live in, whose apartment would you choose:
* Apartment number 1 (Shawn, Chris, Joey, Big Mike)
* Apartment number 2 (Josh, Phil, Kyle, Andrew)
Apartment number 1 all the way: Shawn=hot+smelly feet, Chris=hot+still smelly feet, Joey=hot, Big Mike= just there.
A real shame that Phil's in the 2nd one as I'd have wanted to become a college dorm slave for Kyle and Andrew.
18 - If you could hook up with one of the college guys, who would you choose?
Andrew! Smelly feet+hot face+gamer nerd! Out of the usual hyper-muscular guys I like ( Andrew really took Shawn's place), but it came as something of the moment so let's roll with it!
19 - If you were bound, gagged & shrunk, whose smelly sock would you choose as your eternal prison?
My allegiance has my fingers unconsciously gliding to write ZACK, much to my somewhat unwillingness to be thrown in a cheese prison. ( Non-Zack answers: Kyle all the way and maybe even a swim in Joey's lake of sweaty socks)
20 - On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 = Extreme approval, 1 = Extreme disapproval) rate your approval of Shawn.
7-generally fine guy with some unforgivable minuses ahem...ahem...blackmailer. Lately, he seems to be improving himself so this score can change.
21 - On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 = Extreme approval, 1 = Extreme disapproval) rate your approval of Nick.
8,5-truly a great man working to perfect himself and adapt to all that's naturally new and comes with going from a string of girlfriends to a boi-wife. Some things I still can't forgive, however ( just as a criminal record won't forgive admitted kidnapping! However hot he may be).
22 - In book VI Steven was coerced into giving Kyle a rimjob. How would you have reacted in Steven's place?
Having fallen trap I'd have likely pleaded my case for freedom and hope for the best. If my pleads had been heard then yey! freedom. If not then I'd have to go on with it. Rimming is not quite my thing, but that's what the
coerced is for.
23 - If you were bound up, gagged & helpless, which member of the cast would you most fear being discovered by?
Phil's torments would probably be the cruellest/grossest, especially considering my size and him knowing I couldn't really do that much to him when I get free. Zack, however- here you have sadistic pleasure in tormenting and a lot of time. Kind of hard for me to decide, but grossness is a no-way go for me ( Phil's spitting? Ew.) I have to go with
Phil.
24 - Favourite underwear/boxers/jockstrap to be gagged with?
Zack's baby blue ones are quite notorious!
25 - You and the whole B&G crew are going on a weekend camping trip. Choose your four (4) tentmates!
Last one! Zack, Nick, Shawn and Andrew! An interesting crossover. All guys can dom me, but if Andrew finds himself out of place he might be taken down as well! I don't even want to imagine what our tent will smell like!
And those are my answers! Interesting to see some changes and some constants from the last time I completed the questionnaire.
even if they've never met Jason before.
).
Bring on Shawn's notorious socks, but not Phil's! And if my plea is heard first then sorry [mention]Stormee[/mention], I hope you're ok with us sucking on Shawn's rags instead of Philip's.
