... seen in Horta house museum (Brussels)

Horta was an Art Nouveau architect and his house is five floors which only a few rooms per floor, but it somehow manages to seem very large. The roof is mostly leaded glass skylight.

And ... a portable historical crucifixion construction kit ...

Hasturan's wonderful pic of me struggling in agony on my cross --

View attachment 375996 and some of the wonderful posts about being thirsty on the cross posted on Hasturan's thread, inspired me to write this.

Thirst

Please
Water
I need water
I am so dry
So thirsty
So damnably thirsty
Hanging on this cross
So desperate
For a drink
Of water
I try to speak
Through bloody, cracked lips
My tongue dry as leather
Wa . . . wa . . . wa . . .
Yes, I see you approach

The cell stank, as all cells in this prison did. The girl looked up at me from where she was huddled in the straw. Her eyes were big with fear.


“It’s time, little one.” The light from the lantern the guard carried was warm in the pre-dawn darkness, not that much light ever penetrated into these cells. They were, after all, merely a way station on the way to execution. The girl struggled to her feet, the fetters too big and heavy for her slender form.


I felt sorry for the girl. She had...

THE CRUX FORUM SUICIDE CIRCLE
A Crux Story by Cycle

It was finally time. In the next few seconds, I would learn my fate. It all came down to random chance. I would either suffer and go home. Or I would suffer and die.

Suddenly, I felt a heavy boot slam into my lower back with so much force, I fell face first into the grey dirt. The boot narrowly missed my hands which had been cuffed behind my back for nearly a week. The leg shackles made it difficult to get back on my feet, so the two...

“It”


“Look lively, girl, just this last hill to climb”

I pull firmly on the rope round her neck, I don’t like to use the whip, though will if I have to.

“Once we’re over the top, it’s all downhill to the town. We’ll stop at the spring-line for the night, good fresh water and some trees for shade."

She picked up the pace a bit, though I knew she was struggling under the load. I had my goods to sell on her back, I’m a woodsman you see, live in the forest...

Lady Harrington

Two days had passed since Jacob had left Beatrix. It was early in the morning and he had just finished breakfast when he heard a carriage stop at his door. He headed for his door knowing who it was going to be. He grabbed a coat then put it on as he walked to the door then opened it just as Beatrix was about to knock.

Beatrix was stood there in her black outfit just as before.

“Good morning Jacob. Are you ready to assist with the next...

Anno 1455



Jacob was a young man of 25. He had short brown hair and had a muscular body from years of hard work. Born in a small village he grew up with his family attending church every Sunday. Upon seeing his dedication the local bishop assisted Jacobs desire to become a blacksmith. The church helped support him for several years as he learned his craft for which he was eternally grateful.



Two years ago Earl Creston had called him to work for his own armory. He quickly proved himself...

My Reactions After My Cross Was Raised...

I was just looking at my own avatar and wondering to myself what I might be doing, feeling, saying, etc once my cross was raised after I had been nailed to it. So I just decided to jot them down kind of randomly in a post.

Initially there would be screams of agony and the instant realization that I would be dying on this cross. I would want so badly to be free of my pain and anguish that my struggling would begin immediately. Squirming, writhing, hoping to somehow free myself from my...

The General’s Daughter

A Sentimental Story


The General wiped his forearm across his face, his nostrils still filled with the bitter scents of battle. It was over, and the only sounds now were the shrieks of carrion birds as they soared over the plain and the murmur of the spring by the little grove of olive and fig trees.

Sheltering in the scant shade sat a group of young girls, their faces downcast. The unwanted prize of the enemy’s concubines...

The Bandit Girl

When they Awoke the next morning Beatrix and Jacob were invited to breakfast with the mayor and his wife. They sat in a large hall around a big oak table with just the four of them along with some servants waiting on them. Jacob had never known such privilege but refrained from speaking out.


Beatrix said "Why thank you for your hospitality Mayor Hampton. We are both very grateful for what you have done"


With a laugh the Mayor replied "Ha think...

Finally, a day off and the sun is actually shining. I don’t get too many of these, days off with sunshine. When I do get one, I like my time on the deck. Thanks to the trees, I can enjoy that deck time with my favorite, au natural, sunshine attire. I love living in the modern, digital world. But sometimes I think I’d rather have lived in the day when clothing was truly optional.

Sitting here, I look down at my pale, pathetically thin arms. I look at my hands and wonder...

Several days had passed with Beatrix and Jacob enjoying the hospitality of the Mayor. They had written the Earl to update him on their progress and he was very pleased with them. Lady Harrington along with the blonde girl was at the Earl’s keep awaiting their fate. The Earl told them that Lady Harrington had recovered surprisingly well from her previous torture. He also made a point of admiring her composure even though she had been informed she was to face additional torture.

All these mentioned costs that we must pay for him who desires to be crucified? Crazy!
http://www.cruxforums.com/xf/threads/¿how-much-you-want-for-being-crucified-for-real.4735/

No, no.

NO, it is he who must pay for that. We crucify him, execute a job and he gives us our salary. That is normal economy, not the world to put upside down.

For the procedure:
undress, bind, nails,
20 minutes,
unbound and some care of the wounds,
I ask €175.
For 20 minutes...

Well, dont be scared, this is only a question for debate :p

I recently read the story of the real crucifixion of Connie, in the 4th page of Safe Crux thread and it was very exiting, she was young and need money, then a rich and crazy man told her he will give her 50 thousand dollars if she accepts to be crucified for real, with real nais through her hands but no feet... so bad.... I would enjoy to read that story with also the feet nailed... but nothing is perfect, so....

Me to, since July 14th, 1974. I (and most of you) wrote about the most secret adventures constantly developed in the earliest youth.
Is has benefits to possess an archive, it procures you insight in your secret activity and can consider you to improve the session. I always did my crucifixion better than before, the changes I noticed too.
Date and duration plus appreciation.

The year 2015 was a top-rate in my practice but 2016 rarely done. I will philosophy for the reason. But that only is...

Thank Him for that. Hope you like it too, but honestly i have no
idea where all this comes from, the dream was so vivid.

It was just a girlie get together at my friend Peggy`s home between Samantha, Me and Peggy`s elderly aunt who had emigrated from Germany in the early 1950s. Mostly it was just small talk including things of a sexual nature like how big a...
