CBT + needle play with MzAntonina

and medical play


As part of our New Year celebrations we organized a scene with MzAntonina, a polyamorous lifestyle friend who lives in Sydney with her submissive MacTheKnife.

We've all known each other for a few years now, have attended quite a few events together (especially Black Sash nights), have learned new skills together (such as sharing our first electrical play / violet wand lesson / scene at Hardcore Heaven), tested out each other's new toys (like S(A)X's The Rod), have really got into the Femdom tea party thing together, have even shared the stage for a kinky workshop panel (with MsGawjusRedhead, for Uber's How to Find a Dominant panel) and just really enjoy playing together *evil grin*.

MzAntonina is also an extremely talented jewelry maker. A couple of years ago, the weekend of Rake and Hawksbury's collaring, MzAntonina and Hawksbury both gifted me bracelets. At the time I wrote in a post titled "Gifts of commitment and friendship":
"Sitting on the plane I realized sol and I had just spent a perfect weekend surrounded by the most wonderful kinky friendship. I held my arm up and jingled my bracelets. They looked vanilla. Like Hawksbury's collar. She will wear that collar everywhere, it's powerful meaning - the memory of her vows - concealed to most. But tangibly there with her, to remind her of what matters most.


"I will wear my bracelets everywhere, their meaning - the gift of kinky community, of friendship - equally concealed. But equally there. Only I will know they contain the memory of that weekend. Those memories - those very special vows, the BDSM scenes at the party and later, the good food and wine, the laughter of friends - will warm me every time I wear these gifts of kinky friendship"
Fetlife Northern NSW group munch regulars will recall how devastated I was when MzAntonina's bracelet (on the left of the photo above) broke at a munch a few months back, after a couple of years hard wear. MzAntonina very kindly restrung it for me before Xmas.

During that visit I happened to mention that sol and I had been receiving instruction in genital needle play. While MzAntonina had experience with needle play, she had not placed needles in the shaft or head of a cock. She suggested designing a matching necklace in return for my lending sol's genitals for a CBT scene involving needle play.

This was a wonderful and unexpected gift idea, because to be honest, I would have been delighted to organize such a scene with sol and MzA at any time :)

We agreed that next time sol and I were in Sydney we would put aside an afternoon for this scene, and that we would bring our needle play gear down. When I also suggested we bring our sound and explore sounding - something else she'd been looking forward to trying - as well as other forms of urethral torture, MzAntonina was a very happy rabbit indeed.

So were sol and myself, anticipating this scene.

We joined MzAntonina and MacTheKnife for lunch last Sunday. The plan was then to play for an hour or so, and then head over for afternoon tea with other kinky friends at AugustusSeizeHer's House of Wafflé.

We negotiated the scene we had in mind. I suggested repeating the scene where alexpierce had taught me about cock needles - piercing different areas of the cock to see how each differed, so starting with a row of needles up the shaft, then piercing the foreskin a few times ... and perhaps the head, if all was going well. Perhaps trying different gauges to see how they felt in the cock's "butter like" skin.


We could take things from there, perhaps moving on to some urethral torture if we had time ... or perhaps picking up the scene again at AugustusSeizeHer's if we ran out of time. MzAntonina agreed.

MzAntonina was already experienced with non genital needle play so we didn't need to go through that side of things, other than to reassure each other we were both familiar with handling and inserting needles. You might like to have a look at this earlier post, if you are looking for more practical information on piercing.

Sol fixed one of our torch / headlights to MzAntonina's forehead:


These head torches really make needle play easier: they provide a good light and leave your hands free. We then stripped sol down to his pretties (which MzAntonina greatly admired) and restrained him face up on MzAntonina's massage bed. We planned to use the area between his legs for our needle play gear:


You can see S(A)X's Urethral Sound there - we'll talk about that more in a moment - along with latex gloves (I loved MzAntonina's pink latex gloves, which had been sold to raise money for breast cancer) and the needle play plastic storage container we use when we travel:


We also assembled tissues, needles, swabs and a sharps disposer.

We swabbed down sol's shaft and started our row of needles about half way along sol's shaft, working towards the top. I recommend working in this direction because the shaft becomes more sensitive towards the top. This was something we first did with alexpierce and have done several other times since.

As this was also a bit of a workshop for MzAntonina I also thought we might try different gauges. We started with two 25 gauge and then two 23 gauge:


MzAntonina and I alternated inserting the needles. About eight needles in ... and sol was completely gone:


We were very proud of our straight row of needles:


These included 21 gauge and 19 gauge.

MzAntonina quickly picked up on the play possibilities of the different sized gauges, as well as how to use even a single row to great effect. Here MzA runs a finger over the taut skin:



Then (after adding some more needles - two 25 gauge and then two 23 gauge):


We ran a quill and then a Wartenberg Wheel over this area (sorry I didn't take photos, I was having too much fun) and then tried twisting individual needles:


And then twisting sol's entire cock:


This proved very effective, in terms of sol's responses:


We then focused our attention on the head of sol's cock. I was a bit concerned about needle stick as we didn't have any tiny corks or rubber stoppers (they are on order) but we thought we'd be okay if we were very careful. If you are new to needle play I'd suggest at this point taking out the needles in the shaft before proceeding to the head, as it will give you more maneuverability.

Now while alexpierce had shown me how to put a needle into the head of sol's cock I'd not done this without supervision from someone more experienced before. Sol really wanted me too - and I knew he'd really enjoyed the sensations it created - and of course so did MzAntonina.

So I took my courage in both hands....

This was the result:


Sol reacted intensely. He said later:
"the sensation of the needles through the head is hard to describe ...

"the whole end of the cock is loaded with nerve endings, it's not like skin of the shaft where you just have a pin prick at entry and exit. The skin at both ends of the head needle seems to be loaded with nerve endings. It feels like you are pushing the needle through a thick layer of nerve endings and everything tingles as it goes through this thick layer of sensation...

"yes it hurts (like penetrating skin) but it also tingles and zaps almost like an eldctric shock ... every needle also feels different, it's like all the different nerve endings there create different intensities, a mm to each side would create a different effect..."
It was certainly intense for sol ... as for me, I nearly came, just doing it! I punched one hand up in the air in a victory salute ... yay!!! I'd done it!!! ... and truly, I nearly came.

MzAntonina placed another needle in the head, and then I did one last one:


You can see MzAntonina is holding sol's cock upright by his PA piercing, which kept her fingertips safe from needle stick. This gave us the idea that it was time to introduce MzAntonina to S(A)X's really wonderful urethral sound:


You can read more about our sounding experiencing with this instrument here.

We decided to leave the needles in place in sol's cock to keep up the intensity of the scene. MzAntonina held his cock upright by the PA piercing while I introduced lots of sterile lube to the sound and sol's urethra. Ideally if you are planning to insert the sound the whole way you can use a syringe to get lube further down the urethra. However sol and I had never managed to insert the sound the whole way, so I'd not brought a syringe. It turned out we didn't need it:


To begin, I gently ran the tip around sol's urethra and into it, gently forcing more lube down his urethra. I then straightened the sound again, positioned the tip above the hole and then gently inserted the sound's tip.

We'd received good advice the first time we played with sounds to just let the sound drop / move down under it's weight. This always works well. With sol's level of stimulation during this scene and the combination of lube and pre come, the sound dropped into his cock exquisitely...

Sol said later:
"it went in all the way .... I couldn't feel it at the far end, like they say in the books it's the first five or six cm of the urethra that has most sensation ... but the feeling of fullness with the full diameter of the sound I almost felt like I was coming ... the only other time you get that same sensation is when you are coming"
As I commented in my BDSM For Beginners post on Urethral Sounding, it's difficult to get people to describe how sounding actually feels. It seems to be a very difficult sensation to describe. Sol ended up calling it "a unique sensation". He said this in the earlier post:
"it feels very sensitive ... it's a very delicate sensation ... it isn't intensely pleasurable ... more subtle ... some people say about power exchange, to me it does require a kind of surrender and letting go to do it ... sort of in the same way you need a certain mindset to allow someone to lick your eye ball, you have to will yourself to allow it, even though it's nice"
After a few moments I handed the sound to MzAntonina:


Sol reported a slight burning as the sound moved in and out, and a slight burning from friction and the feeling of fullness. Meanwhile MzAntonina was really enjoying her first sounding experience. Look at her evil grin:


She told us later she found it as intense as fisting.

Finally we moved to another form of urethral play sol had wanted to try for a while. With his cock well open and very sensitive from the sound play, it seemed the perfect time.

Sol has long been interested in the idea of urethral torture with stingy things - lemon juice, tabasco sauce, chili power, raw chilis, fresh ginger, Denca Rub for icy hot etc. Some of these items are intense enough on the outside, imagining them on the inside - perhaps introduced via cotton buds / q tips - made for good fantasies. Could we also make them work in a scene?

(if you are confused about cotton buds / q tips, have a read of this Wiki page, which has good illustrations)

We found a couple of online mentions of q tip play, which sounded intriguing:
"I also have experienced narrow qtips, soaked in rubbing alcohol ... I avoid and miss the insertion of cathers,sounds,qtips in the uretha. Butt, female dommes drip small amts of alcohol, from an eyedropper, into the head of the penis and I scream in delight as the burning senstaion trickles down the uretha. Care should be taken with the qty of alcohol dripped into the uretha .I would not recommend other liquids because of the possiblity of infection or severe burning"
Unsu.. (don't have full name) tribes medplay thread

"Tiger Balm (or BenGay/Icy Hot) on a q-tip, swirled just inside the opening of the urethra, probably will. The benefit of Tiger Balm over BenGay/etc is that Tiger Balm lasts longer"
CutieMouse forum literotica thread
"I recommend sticking to things that can be put in your mouth and not going further than about 3/4 of an inch with the q tip. Wasabi is pretty excruciating"
Domina tribes medplay thread
Wasabi??? Mmmmm.... this was confirmed by musty21 on a get dare q tip pain thread:
"make sure the end that goes in is wet with tabasco or icy hot or toothpaste"
On the same thread here's vampyrepain:
"The main reason that [inserting a q tip] is painful is because the fibers of the q-tip scratch your mucus membranes. Urine is very basic which makes it irritate the scratches as well as kill bacteria as it passes over your scratched urethra. Using irritants such as tabasco or alcohol on the q-tip just further the irritation, but they also lubricate so there isn't as much scratching. For a really aweful punishment that won't be soon forgoten, dedicate a little time and first insert a dry q-tip to cause the scratches, the insert an alcohol or lemon juice soaked q-tip to cause inflammation, swelling, and irritation, then end with the tabasco soaked q-tip that will allow more of the burning sensation to penitrate into the scratched, inflammed, and sensatized tissues"
All this was inspiring, as was this practical advice by WoWaddict:
"to me personally Q-tips dont hurt much unless you play with them while theyre in. I insert them all the time with just spit for lube and in my experience the only time it will hurt for more than 3 pee's or so is when you insert it pull it out - reinsert it a few times. So I recommend you all try it! Then next time lube it with toothpaste or icyhot Muahahahaha"
With all this excellent advice in mind I poured some isopropyl alcohol:


into a small bowl and added several tiny cotton wool buds (q tips):


Note these are a special type of baby cotton bud from Asia that is both smaller than the standard size and differently shaped to the "baby safety cotton buds" (see Johnson Baby cotton buds info and pix here) sold in Western countries.

As one of us held sol's cock up by his PA piercing, the other inserted a wet cotton bud down sol's urethra. We ran it around the tip to judge sol's reactions and then inserted them further down the urethra. Circular motions proved extremely effective. I'm afraid by now I was having way too much fun to take any photos, sorry.

Sol roared so loud I had to whip off my (extremely wet) panties and stuff them in his mouth. Sol said later:
"it hurt like fuck :) :) :) :).

"It was bright loud burny stingy pain. I'm not surprised I made a lot of noise. But one of the best things was the reaction from Mistress and MzAntonina: "gee that really seemed to hurt, let's do it again!"

"I'm definitely looking forward to doing it again plus with other substances"
What a wonderful way to end a scene!

Afterwards it was time to take the needles out:


There was some blood from the needles in the head but not the shaft, something alexpiece had already warned me to expect. Sol wrote:
"pain goes away quickly once the needles are out, but there is still some sensation from the ones in the head ... these throbbed and zapped for several days after ... in fact they are still zapping as I write this, very mildly, just twitches .... feels on, if you know what I mean...

"it would have become unbearable if mistress had not let me come several times ... at the end of scene:


and then later again that evening and then again the next evening. Mistress also was very turned on and came very quickly when she asked me to service her""
Every time I wear this lovely necklace I'll remember how much fun we all had:


AFTERCARE

For those interested in trying such a scene, I want to cover the aftercare. Here's sol's cock after we finished:


We rubbed Savlon on the shaft to keep the skin from drying out (the Wartenberg Wheel had created a lot of tiny pin pricks, which dried the skin as well as bruising the skin over the needles) and stop any infection.

Sol ended up with three bruises on his cock head:


Sol said these bruises:
"provided pleasant stimulation, they were not painful, I was just aware of the sensations. They would have become unbearable if mistress had not let me come several times ... end of scene, later again that evening and the next evening".
I know I quoted that before, but it needs to be re-quoted as part of aftercare. If you have your sub in chastity you definitely need to leave him out of any devices until the bruises fade.

In terms of all the internal play, there was some redness / soreness at the tip of the urethra immediately after play but this quickly disappeared. Sol was a tad nervous peeing for the first time after this scene:
"it hurt like hell when I finally did ... my body actually refused for a couple of minutes, anticipating the pain .... and there was burning for about two days after. Still a little sensitivity in the area ...

"I feel more well used than pain ..."
Which is a perfect way to feel at the end :)


Thank you:
MzAntonina
for so many things :)
