This one time, at kink camp....

Hello NEDS members,


 NotSo and I returned from Dark Odyssey Fusion yesterday; what an experience!   It was our first time at Fusion and it took as a long while to decide to go to the event in the first place.  We decided on Fusion because of the laid back, sex positive, kinky culture that it boasted.  We were not disappointed!

After our 7 hour drive (during which I slept 6.59999 hours of) we arrived in Northern Maryland with nervous energy.  At registration we knew we had made a great decision arriving at camp on Wednesday to get some downtime prior to the whole event beginning.  At Fusion you have the option bring your own tent or rent a cabin bed.  You also have an option to purchase a meal plan or prepare your own food.  NoSo and I got cabin beds and the meal plan; we wanted to make sure we got to relax and did not want to worry about food prep or cleaning.

Okay now onto the good stuff.  We took a stroll up to the Dungeon, and oh man...it was fabulous.  As someone who has not been to many large scale kink events, I was super impressed.  They had every sort of lube and protection (including chucks) that I could have wanted.  They had tons of equipment and space.  The lighting and music was spot on, it really put me in the mood to play from the minute I walked in.  Which I would image is the point.  There was also an outdoor dungeon that was equipped with all sorts of hardpoints.  In addition to that outdoor dungeon, there was an open air dungeon in the pavilion which was fabulous.  Again tons of equipment and space to play.  NoSo and I played in the open air space and indoor dungeon, and we had a great time in both places.  There was another outdoor space called Sex-O-Rama, I am sure you can guess what that was for ::wink::

What was even better than the space was the people who were in attendance.  The community was awesome and friendly.  It was great to meet so many people from across the country and globe who came out for this event.  Speaking of people from everywhere, Fusion had tons of well known presenters giving classes every day from sunrise to sunset.  I planned on going to more classes than I did, but I was having so much fun skinny dipping and meeting new people that I was a bit of a slacker in that area.  I did see an awesome class on Mind Fucks put on by Eric Pride and a great and informational class on Watersports put on by Boymeat.  I would highly recommend either of these presenters.

One of the highlights of camp for me was the kidnapping scene that I had.  At camp you can "sign up" to be randomly kidnapped during camp.  Not everyone gets kidnapped, it depends on the year, so by Sunday I assumed it wasn't my year.  I am into interrogations, and fear, not really into pain so I wasn't sure what they would come up with.  So on Sunday as I was "innocently" walking down the road to another campsite I was jumped, hooded and carried to a nearby field.  Once in said field I was waterboarded until I told them all my sexiest fantasies.  I think i unnerved them slightly by giggling most of the time, but gosh I was having fun!

NotSo and I can't wait for next year, and we hope that even more NEDS members will be there then!
