Those she swats away.

"I didn't say you could do that."

"I apologize, your Majesty. Perhaps you should punish me for disobedience?"

"Hm. Stand up."

She does, gaze dropped just enough she's looking at Ellie through her eyelashes.

Ellie raises her hand and holds up one finger and sets it to sparking much more angrily than anything they've tried yet.

"Kiss," she commands, point the finger at Ruby.

She obeys without hesitation.

Delightful.

Ellie allows a smirk to crawl across her face as she ramps up the voltage.

Ruby makes a pained noise, gasping - but keeps her lips on Ellie's finger. She has a stubborn set to her jaw - though that might also be the way her muscles are starting to jump.

(She's curious and even excited to see how far Ellie will escalate her punishment.)

Ah, she likes the noise.

Another minute should do it.

She can get quite a few more pained noises out of Ruby over that minute, then. Ruby remains in place, locking her legs to keep them from shaking.

Ellie pulls her finger back and smiles.

Ruby whines a bit, breathing hard.

"Learned your lesson?"

"Yes, your Majesty- keep my hands where you tell me to put them."

"Good. Now."

She takes her shirt off in one smooth motion.

"Look, but don't touch."

She has a very admiring Ruby staring at her now, grinning.

"Of course, your most beautiful Majesty."

"Come sit down again."

Heee.

She obeys, this time keeping her hands draped over Ellie's shoulders.

Kisses.

Kisses!

Most Royal and Imperial Kisses.

And zappies.

And one very wriggly subject.

This was a good idea.

Ruby seems to quite agree.

"Would your Majesty have anything else of me?" she murmurs when they come up for air.

"Your performance has been... adequate. That is all."
