You just want to have a stroll

Although your movements are not entirely painless, you decide you want some fresh air and mild exercise. You will just need to be careful. You also want to see more of this new world, although you cannot tell that to Diana. Fortunately, she does not need to be convinced being more than happy to start the weekend with just a gentle walk in the park as well. You finish your breakfasts and coffee at a leisurely pace, put the dishes into the dishwasher and head back to your bedroom to get dressed. Diana somehow hid a change of casual clothes in the bottom of the bag you saw last night.

The stricter world you brought about does not differ much in the fashion department from your old one, you realise, as you both get dressed. The Rulebook must be trying to keep non-related changes to a minimum. You choose a dress for yourself and throw a light jacket over your shoulders; after a short but intense self-debate you decide to forgo underwear as it would hurt too much. If you do not get in trouble, its lack will never be noticed; if you do, it will probably be a minor issue in the overall bleak picture for your bottom. Diana dresses herself in a pair of jeans and a jumper, reusing the panties and bra she wore yesterday. You leave your flat holding hands and you incidentally wonder how much of a display of affection you can get away with in public. You just hope the Rulebook would tell you everything you need to be actively aware of.

The air feels sweet and fresh; in fact, everything feels new and exciting. The last day and a half has been a haze and now your inner vision is starting to clear up again somewhat. In the not-too-late morning on a Saturday the streets only just start to come to life and you barely encounter anyone. You also find very few reminders that reality has been altered, other than the discomfort every step brings, of course. The first time something actually catches your eye is at the entrance to the park, more precisely at its parking lot. The last sign with the prices and fines has changed subtly but tellingly. Not only the fines have more than doubled (while the actual fees remained the same, suggesting this has nothing to do with overall inflation, only the disciplinary measures changed), but there is also a sign consisting of a stylised representations of a cane and a paddle crossed. You do not need the Rulebook to explain you the sign's meaning.

As you walk around the parking lot, another exciting view presents itself: a designated area for corporal punishments, the biggest you have seen so far. A park entrance is a good place for it, you suppose. Apart from numerous pieces of bondage equipment, there is a very impressive implement selection. One can use coins or their DisciplineDeliver card to rent them unless one is in a disciplinary union (almost anyone whose job requires providing discipline on regular basis would be), in which case the access is free. You try to contain your unduly excitement caused by the new information pouring into your head. This new world is still a bit hazy, after all.

Currently the punishment area is entirely empty but it is not long after you enter the park, chatting about your chances to get company sponsorship for the postgraduate course you have recently applied for (you got a newsletter from them shortly before leaving which both reminded you and assured you this happened in the new world too) when you encounter the first bare bottom of the day. A bit more is bare than just the bottom, in fact - the female jogger is only wearing trainers and a sport bra. Her recent spanking was not as bad as yours and only covered her (very cute) butt, but you have no doubt running like that must be very uncomfortable indeed. You would skip a run yourself under such circumstances... But then it may well be the case that doing so would earn the lady in question a spanking itself. She turns into the wooded area after overtaking you whereas you continue down the alleyway.
