Bondage 5

The toast popped up; Claire set down the jug of juice from the fridge to take care of that, slathering it with jam the way her mistress liked it. She added it to the plate that already held breakfast sausages, and slid fried eggs from the pan onto the plate as well, then filled a glass with juice. Technically, it was evening, but their lives were so completely inverted that this was when their day started. Her mistress liked a proper, filling breakfast, after they’d slept off the exhaustion of a night out in the RV—especially when they had complications.…

Bondage 4

It was a tie, whether it was more of a pain in the ass working with Dominus or with Minotaur. Yeoman kept his sigh to himself, and did his best not to listen to the pair of them, in the back seat of the black SUV like kids he had to babysit, bragging about what they’d do to the annoyingly-successful pair of villainesses once they captured them. They were, of course, absolutely certain that they would succeed, even though Avalanche and Meteor, both top-tier heroes with formidable powers, had failed. Worse, when the League had sent a second team to…

Bondage 3

Bit by bit, it faded away, bringing back sensation and proprioception and cognition. Not all the sensations were good ones. The binder that had been confining her small breasts was acutely uncomfortable, and none of her clothes felt right at all, loose and rough against her skin. “Claire?” Eureka said gently. Not through speakers this time, Claire thought vaguely. Her Mistress was right beside her. Actually, she was adjusting the restraints, which had become disappointingly loose, back to a satisfying embrace. “Are you okay?” “Yes, Mistress. Better than okay.” Wait, was that her voice? A rather sultry contralto purr? “Oh,…

Bondage 2

The waking world returned so abruptly that the transition was jarring. Okay. Take stock. Surprisingly comfortable surface underneath. Lying flat on it. Straps over arms, pinning them down. Ditto for legs. Curved head cradle. Blindfold that prevented even the faintest trace of light. A suggestion of music, just loud enough to be audible, some weird New-Age track with lots of synthesizers and woodwinds. Still dressed, at least, but all illusion would have vanished along with consciousness, leaving only a slightly-tatty stage magician’s tuxedo put together from thrift-shop components. Well, not the first time Eureka had seen that. Shoulder-length dark hair…

Bondage 1

A fluffy little superhero tale about a couple of lonely souls finding each other. Illusionist superhero Phantasm and tech-genius supervillain Eureka have clashed many times, but one of them just changed the rules. (5 chapters, 14K words) I’m going to post this one and its sequel much more quickly since they’re very short and as an example of what I do. Longer stories will be one chapter/weekday. There‘s not really much by way of explicit sex or graphic violence. There is, however, a bit of playful D/s-flavoured romance between two women, some organizational transphobia, transformation, cuteness, and… hm, I’m not…

Hello World!

Hi! I’m Prysmcat, sometimes known as Steph Shangraw. I write fantasy. Specifically, character-driven fantasy. There are adults trying to get through bad situations; shapeshifting and transformations; cats and other animals; all kinds of messing about with gender, orientation, poly, and kink; and other kinds of diversity. What there won’t be is grimdark ANYTHING; bigotry as a good thing; animal cruelty; gore or horror; unsettling or depressing endings. Why is it all free? Well, there was a time I wanted to make a career, or at least a paid sideline, out of writing, but things happened and now I can’t work…
