Depictions of spanking —02 -1 Nn… -2 sfx- Cheep Chirp Am I hearing things? Welp, it is starting to get bright outside… -3 Just what time is it? sfx- Creak -4 Ah… -5 Tick Tick Whoa It’s totally morning already… —03 -1 If this were to happen in the doujin I’m drawing… -2 Geez! You stayed up all sight again?! -3 N-no, I did sleep a little… -4 Don’t you lie to me. sfx- Yank Uwaah! -5 I can see you didn’t sleep just by looking at your face! I-I’m sorry! —04 -1 Well, not like that’s going to happen for real… -2 It’s fiction. Just something that happens in the things I draw. sfx- Stiff -3 Yeah, I know that, but… Somewhere there’s a part of me that wants to experience it for real. -4 Somehow I ended up around 30 before I knew it. And as far as the world is concerned, a fine, standup adult. -5 My mom and dad were what would now be called “toxic parents”. I can’t remember a time when they ever praised me. Whenever I tried to get them to notice something I was doing, it always came to nothing. —05 -1 I left home as soon as I graduated. They called me ungrateful and beat the shit out of me. -2 Crap, that sure hurt… But I now know leaving home was the right move. -3 Since even someone like me could actually find true love. -4 She’s younger. Has big boobs. She’s going to inherit a famous business. Popular with everyone. Total high spec in-game cheat code girlfriend. —06 -1 Yoru-chan… She’s super sweet, great at cooking, and has an awesome smile… -2 It’s already a miracle we’re together, so there’s no way I can let her know… -3 That I’m totally into being spanked! -4 To start with, I haven’t even told her I draw doujinshi. So how could I even ask my younger girlfriend “hey, I want you to spank me when you scold me, then baby me when it’s over”. I’d rather die. Even if it were to happen somehow, if she were to discover what I was really like… sfx- Sniff… -5 Eh? Yoru-chan, so you were into that? ###bold or italicize “that” That’s a little… I could never do that… ###bold or italicize “that” —07 -1 If she said that to me, I’d never be able to get over it. And then if that were to lead to us breaking up… -2 Yoru-chan, good morning… -3 Uh, so just what are you doing? -4 Ah… um… I’m doing cat pose… This early in the morning? —08 -1 Ah, Why don’t we have breakfast, ok? -2 Ok, I’ll help with the prep. Fufu, Sound good. Thanks. sfx- Tap -3 Step Step -5 Yoru-chan. Hm? -6 Eh? Um… sfx- Slide -7 You pulled another all-nighter, right? —09 -1 Uh, uh, um… sfx- Th-thump -2 sfx- Grr C’mon, how many times do I have to tell you that you can’t be doing that? -3 It’s bad for your body, not to mention your complexion, ok?! S-sorry. I’m so pathetic that when this kind of thing happens, I secretly hope that… Geez! Are you even listening to me? Y-yes! -6 Thanks for breakfast. —10 -1 Ok, I’ll clean up the dishes. Okay. Thanks for always taking care of that. -2 Ah right, Yoru-chan… What’s up, Hi-chan? -3 When I come home today, I want to have a bit of a serious talk with you… hw- Ah, I better get going… -4 Eh? -5 Ah, and… So that you can really listen to me, be sure to get enough sleep, ok? Eh? Ok, I’m heading out. Um… —11 -1 Silence -2 Wh-what am I going to do? -3 hw- What am I going to do? Is she finally breaking up with me?! Well, yeah, things were going too good for a person like me… But if there’s any chance at all… hw- What am I going to do? -4 I’ve got to do everything thing I can… -5 First get the laundry done! sfx- Vrrm Vrrm -6 Next the vacuuming! sfx- Bwooooo -7 And the dishes… sfx- Clink Clink —12 -1 And then… sfx- Beep Beep -2 Ah, The laundry’s finished…! -3 Gotta fold this… -4 Trip -5 Pawaaah sfx- Whoomf —13 -1 Ow, ow, ow… -2 sfx- Groping Where’s my glasses… -3 sfx- Sniff -4 Well for someone like me, no matter what I do, the conclusion is obvious… -5 Clench -6 I want to stay with Hi-chan… sfx- Sniff —14 -1 Sniff… Hick… -2 nn… -3 Yoru-chan, I’m home. sfx- Ka-chak -4 Did you get some sleep? hw- Like she would… -6 Sleeping there? Without even a blanket? sfx- Zzz Zzz She’s gonna catch a cold. —15 -1 Shhff… -2 sfx- Caress She’s been crying too. -3 She’s probably been blaming herself and going in all sorts of weird directions, huh? Yeah, I guess I had better just do that today. ###bold or italicize “that” -4 It’d be better to get her into bed, but I don’t want to wake her… I’ll just put a blanket on her. I better gather and rewash the laundry… Mmm… And I’ll make something that Yoru-chan likes for dinner. —16 -1 That’s why you’re so stupid! I should have never given birth to you! You were a fuckin’ mistake! -2 I’m sorry! I’m sorry that I was even born! I’m so sorry! -3 …chan… …ru-chan… -4 Yoru-chan! sfx- Shake Shake —17 -1 Huff Huff -2 Hi-chan… Are you ok? You were crying out in your sleep… -3 Y-yeah, sorry… I just was dreaming about past times… hw- Welcome home… sfx- Shff sfx- Flop -4 A blanket? -5 I wanted to put you to bed, but you were sleeping so soundly, so… -5 Eh… sleeping…? sfx- Sweat -6 Hi-chan! I’m sorry! Hey! Yoru-chan?! I had planned on getting everything done by the time you got home, Hi-chan! sfx- Whump —18 -1 Yoru-chan, calm down, ok? -2 I’ll try even harder, ok? So… -3 I’ll learn to do more things, so please don’t hate me… -4 sfx- Pat C’mon… -5 You’re such a dummy, Yoru-chan. You’re always trying so hard, right? -6 Wha? —19 -1 Shmmf -2 No matter what happens, I’ll never come to hate you, Yoru-chan. I’m not going anywhere. -3 Thank you… -4 So then, let’s get to that discussion I mentioned this morning. Nn… -5 I keep telling you that pulling all-nighters is bad for you, but you went and did it anyway, right? Ah… —20 -1 I’ve told you so many times now, and the problem keeps happening. So now need to try something a little different. Wha? -2 sfx- Yank Eh?! -3 Whaaaa?! sfx- Whump -4 Hi… Hi-chan?! What are you dooooing?! sfx- Bluuuush —21 -1 You’re seriously asking “what”? When you don’t respond to words, then we need to make it hurt a little, hm? -2 B-b-b-but… But this only happens in anime or manga… -3 When someone gets spanked in anime or manga, they reflect on their actions and change, right? -4 B-but, I’m older than you, Hi-chan… I’m an adult, so… sfx- Th-thump Th-thump -5 sfx- Whish Bad girl -6 Age has nothing to do with it, right? sfx- Whack Hyaaa! —22 -1 sfx- Th-thump Th-thump I can’t believe this… It doesn’t hurt as much as I thought it would, but she’s really spanking my… butt… -3 sfx- Jolt -4 Hi-chan?!

Let’s have your ass be exposed. sfx- Shine Waaaaah -2 Yoru-chan, you really have a nice butt, you know… Hi-chan! sfx- Stroke Stroke -3 Agh… This is embarassing… -4 Huh?! Right. This is about punishment. -5 To start with, it’s important to ascertain how red your butt can get. So we’ll start out by getting your butt nice and red. —24 -1 Okay then, here I go. W-wait… -2 Smack -3 Hyaaa! -4 Sting -5 What’s… this… -6 This hurts way more than before… sfx- Throb Throb -7 Ok, I’m going to continue. —25 -1 H-Hi-chan… -2 Ah Yow sfx- Whack sfx- Smack -3 Getting spanked like this is what I’ve always wanted, but… sfx- Smack Hya Nn… sfx- -Smack -4 I didn’t think it’d hurt like this… sfx- Glow -5 Ok then, Yoru-chan, just why are you getting spanked like this? sfx- Whack -6 Ow… Um… um… I’m whining… this is so embarrassing…! —26 -1 Wha-pish Ah -2 Ow… I stayed up all night… -3 That’s right. After I warned you so many times. And you did it anyway, right? -4 I’m… I’m sorry…. I’m only capable of apologizing like a child… -5 sfx- Whack Hya Yeow -6 So do you know why you’re getting punished like this? —27 -1 Um… Because… It’s bad for your body…? -2 That’s right.

Yes, I understand. We’ve found the location of the two people in question. How do you wish to proceed? -5 Hm, yes, well… Let’s just keep observing for now. Sooner or later, I’m sure that those guys will hear about us. When that happens, they’ll be in contact, right? When it does happen, let me know right away. ### this is a likely reference to a yakuza extortion scam if they were to find out that the inheritor of a famous company is gay. I understand. sfx- Beep -7 I won’t forgive anything that would hurt Yoru-chan. Even if it’s someone close to either of us. I’ll always protect you, Yoru-chan. —37 -1 I am… A Goddess.
