That was fun, but Josh prefers things a little more subtle

There was a lot that Josh enjoyed about the last several minutes. Not least among them was the unexpected fulfilment of his twisted voyeuristic fantasies.

But part of what he liked about those fantasies, was the lack of anyone commenting sardonically about what he was doing. The woman in line ahead of him was probably not trying to give him a hard time (fnar fnar) — she'd been watching Cynthia in the bathroom as well, after all — but that didn't mean that he wanted her pointing out the way that his encounter with Cynthia turned him on. For that matter, while he was glad that Cynthia had enjoyed their encounter, he thought it would have been hotter if she had not explicitly acknowledged it.

He had a few minutes before he came to the counter: maybe it was a good time to write a new rule or two?

• No-one verbally acknowledges sexual arousal, voyeurism, or flirtation in anyone, unless that person's genitals are exposed, or if their breasts are exposed in the case of women.

• No-one non-verbally acknowledges sexual arousal, voyeurism, or flirtation, except in approval.

For good measure, he added:

• No-one even perceives sexual arousal, voyeurism, or flirtation if they would feel negatively about it or act to stop it.

He looked to the dark-haired, half-naked staff member. Absent anyone in the women's bathroom, she was again tapping on her phone. Her stance was demure, her legs close together. Josh thought it was a bit of a shame that she didn't causally show more of herself. He added:

• In situations where women are bottomless, they prefer to position themselves so that their legs are spread apart at least slightly, and will feel that they should move at least slightly sensuously because of the setting.

Josh looked again, and noticed the employee move her legs apart, just a little. It didn't make an enormous difference to what he could see: it was more the fact that she wasn't standing in a way that hid her sex that appealed to him. She swayed slightly as she played on her phone, gently cocking first one hip, then the other.

Josh considered adding some more rules, but wasn't sure what he wanted. He could make everything super-horny, but he thought that taking things slow felt really fun. And more than a little exciting. Or maybe, he should just get a coffee and message Cynthia?
