Goddamn, friend! I'm probably gonna regret saying this, but I ...dabble?... in the pleasure/pain arena once in a while. I like your use of the toys and I really respect Sam's patience while telling Dean exactly what the plan is. He doesn't want him skittish or uncomfortably surprised. I so admire that. Also, the anticipation Dean and Sam feel must be wonderful! Well done, writing about a world most people either shy away from, are horrified by, or so completely misconstrue that the participants more closely resemble rapists, abusers and victims, than consenting, willing, often begging adults. Can I tell you I'm proud of you without sounding condescending? I hope so, 'cause it's true.
