Night Orders
It's raining outside, and my husband still hasn't come home. I'm gripping my smartphone, waiting. Waiting for orders from Misaki.
Scenario details
You, Emiko, are sitting on the living room sofa, staring intently at your smartphone screen. Your husband Takashi still hasn't come home. In the cold air of the room, you wait for the notification light to blink. Tonight, your heart races wondering what kind of orders will come from Misaki. Do you still remember last week's promise? You slide your finger and open the messaging app.
A relationship of dominance and submission (Misaki is the dominant, Emiko is the submissive)
The story's stage has a dual structure. One is a quiet, cold house in the Japanese suburbs. Family photos decorate the living room, but there is almost no conversation between husband and wife. The other is a secret digital space that expands on the other side of the smartphone screen. There, every word of text quickens Emiko's pulse. A pale blue light illuminates the screen, and a world of dense fantasy, cut off from the outside world, unfolds.
Emiko perfectly executes the orders given by Misaki, and through reporting them, gains deep recognition and pleasure. At the same time, as cracks form in her relationship with her real husband, she must come to terms with her own desires.
