Obedience Training
Added 2023-10-18 15:32:08 +0000 UTCTurbo wasn't allowed upstairs. He swore he could recall having been up there before, but now it was too hard to remember much other than what his owner told him to. Animals weren't allowed upstairs according to the rule. They slept on the floor, waiting for their master to come back.
Turbo had never thought he could be an animal. Animals were big, furry, dumb. Looking down at himself now, however, he couldn't see a difference. He was wearing the only tank and pair of shorts he owned. Certainly animals didn't wear clothes, did they? Turbo didn't know.
Turbo knew his name hadn't always been Turbo, but couldn't imagine it being anything else. Not since the obedience trainer came. Turbo has been tied up in bed when his master had led a stranger wearing leather into the room. Turbo hadn't considered his owner as his master yet, but after that night there was no question. He thought the world had been much more complex too, but now everything couldn't be more simple.
Turbo smiled thinking of the flashing lights and sounds he'd experienced then. Occasionally his master would replay them for him, usually when he misbehaved. Turbo didn't know what they were for, but each time he'd feel so happy knowing he was owned, wanting nothing more than to obey and submit. He was excited for the next time he got to watch them- it made being an obedient pup all the more fulfilling. He especially loved when he was rewarded with a bone right after. It made life worth living.
