S1E6 - 'The Third Client Peter Rouse'
This week Belinda spends time with one more client in the medium sized maze. They seem to be getting on well - could this be love?
Notes
-
At the start of the Peter Rouse chapter, Jamie Morton says he has the annoying urge to know what happens next. James Cooper and Alice Levine agree that calling Belinda Blinked a story feels wrong, because Rocky Flintstone wrote it as erotica, but they are invested in the people anyway. They care a little about Belinda, and somewhat about Giselle, while refusing to pretend the book has a plot. They picture Rocky writing in a heatwave with no outline, putting down whatever is in his head. The element they name is attachment to the characters. It is not structure, suspense, or a good sentence.
-
He told his son, Jamie Morton, that he likes writing in heat. Maybe that's where his ideas really start to flow. Jamie imagines his dad writing while on a beach.
-
A tall, blond man with an impressive physique walks in, and Belinda recognizes Peter Rouse. His operation is in Holland, with 357 retail outlets, growing through Scandinavia, and he has just expanded into Spain and Portugal, which is why Steele's Pots and Pans cannot ignore him. Jamie, James, and Alice say he is better looking than they had pictured. He takes off his thong, throws it on the ground, and comes toward her, then introduces himself: "My name is Peter." Jamie notes that a name, before sex, is more manners than most of Belinda's clients manage. The description is the height, the blond hair, and the build. The rest is the size of the business.
-
After removing his one piece of clothing, he introduces himself and bows to Belinda. He appears to be the first of her clients to know her name. He also asks for permission before becoming acquainted with her.
-
For Alice Levine, she states she’s more shocked by the languages as opposed to being in Jamie's shoes, of being related to the man who wrote it.
-
She thinks that she’s rarely experienced something as delicate during Peter’s time. Also, she felt like she was floating on air with him. Afterwards, she would agree to be his sex slave if he asked her to be.
-
In the maze, Peter Rouse keeps going and Belinda gasps that she feels she is going to explode. Rocky then writes the line the hosts stop on: for the first time in her life, she was not in control. Jamie Morton calls that a big deal, because Belinda has directed every earlier encounter in Belinda Blinked. She is enjoying it "to death," and the hosts say she sounds like a changed woman. Peter sweats, she rubs his skin harder, and the scene ends with both of them climaxing. The first is not her first orgasm. It is the first time she is not the one in charge, and she likes it.
-
He uses mud to mark Belinda's body parts with symbolic signs, which binds her to him sexually for the next year. He also covers her hair with something that is not mud.
-
Before, she had her main aim of getting ahead in business using her sexual prowls as a tool. Now, she’s decided she really likes a client and didn't close a deal with him after their encounter.
