I just re-read the entire series and was reminded how very much I like it. I fully approve of the faster cadence; thanks.

Waaaaaay back in Usenet days, I think I remember a multi-part never-finished story on a.s.s. or a.s.s.t.r called "My Inheritance." Similar plot but significantly different details -- including that the women needed to be triggered (a la "Trigger Warning") to recognize the son as their new master. I have some archives of a lot of stuff from those newsgroups but can't find that particular story. So, two questions:

1. Does anyone have a copy of it they'd be willing to share somehow?

2. Daphne: Do you remember that story? Did you, in fact, write it and this is your cleaned up (plotwise) version?

I don't believe I ever read that story! Different stories have different origins, and the origin of this one was the image of Stephen and Lucinda walking away from Charles' grave at the funeral. That image popped into my head, and I kind of built the rest of the story around it.

Would it be this one perhaps?

DINGDINGDING!!

The internet never forgets. Although a quick look shows that it's not as well-written as I remember, so maybe it forgets a little....

Many thanks.

Opinion of MC's dad continues to deteriorate...

Okay. I like this comic less and less. For something named "The Inheritance", it's a bit sad to see the main character being so openly ungrateful to a dad who's giving him everything (money, a place, connections, a whole harem). Something his dad has built for decades. The MC just spends his time berating his dad, while cruising through his dad's harem and giving lip service to his concubines. His old man was a much more proactive person and a much more interesting character (smuggler, adventurer, traveller, ladies man), I'd much prefer a comic about him actually as the MC shows how despicable he is in each chapter.

I'm surprised (although not unhappy) that The Inheritance has proved to be such a divisive comic!

I don't think I agree. Charles was a totally absent father, sending checks and nothing else. Stephen's resentment of that absence is well-earned-- and all evidence thus far reinforces the feeling that the Charles was a real piece of work. (Oh no. A manipulative mind controller? How could there be such a thing?) Could Stephen release some of the women eventually (and possibly repatriate some of the stolen antiquities, if we're going to be fully moral about it)? Maybe -- but he knows that he doesn't understand what he's dealing with yet and is perfectly understandably rolling with the ... well, "punches" isn't quite the right word, is it?

I do think it's interesting that Stephen seems to feel like he owes the most to the "lower-class" women that Charles didn't want to be publicly associated with; note that it's the prostitute and the waitress he takes on the road trip, and not anyone from the university. The university staff is probably on the verge of losing their jobs, too, but it's only Mia he's paying so far.

And by the end of the story, the journey could well mean that a) Stephen learns the secrets of controlling and b) comes to terms with his legacy, and c) gains a greater understanding of his father's behavior.

Then again, y'know, it's just porn. "Happy endings" has a different meaning here. But as a *story*, this one is much better than most.

In Chapter 10, though, Daphne? More sex please. Ch. 9 was a bit necessarily exposition-heavy.

There does seem to be a lot of "oh my dad was terrible, gee, time to have a foursome with my sex slaves, but really, my dad was a bad guy."

Always my problem with "nice guy MC." I can just never square that circle.

This is pretty much my favorite story line on MCC. I've followed it from the beginning and I love the way it's going. I really like that we're exploring "just what does a good man do" in our kink.

The last three issues have really been pay off for what everything in the story prior has intimated. We're getting to see the curtain pulled back and yeah; it's not pretty, and that is great. Yeah Stephen's dad was a prick and he ruined lives, and now Stephen has to put paid to that.

At the same time, I really love how Lucinda and David's relationship is developing. She is in many ways both his muse and his goad.

Keep up the good work!

It's not really conducive to hotness.

I don't think it's a mistake to point out the hypocrisy of criticizing a man for magically compelling women into bed while you're getting into bed with magically compelled women. The protagonist is a kinder, gentler master than his father was, but it remains to be seen if he can maintain that fragile moral high ground when time and power have had a chance to corrupt him.

That being said, this is a great fantasy and wonderful fap material. I have no complaints on that front, and am looking forward to further installments.

I think it's a matter of what the moral environment of the story is. All stories make certain assumptions about the value system that they are set in. In a way, worrying too much about whether MC is intrinsically evil in an MC fetish story is like worrying about colonialism in an H. Rider Haggard story.

While that's a good point, MC is intrinsically evil in the societies in which we are all embedded... both historically and currently (golden rule and variations thereof as evidence). But as a good friend pointed out, as long as you're going to fantasize, you may as well make your fantasies perfect as you can.

Any mind controller worth his (sorry; for me it's almost always "he") salt will make sure his thralls *love* being controlled. And who is to say if, in the context of an MC society, that that's any worse than, say, and effective ad campaign for some other lifestyle modification, e.g. a gym membership?

If I have one issue with MC stories it is the author not being consistent with the physics of the method they use. In My Inheritance we don't know how the control has been established other than it isn't brain based. Because the son doesn't know how it happen he also doesn't know how to, if he is that inclined, to fix the girls. The comment on power corrupting, leaves open several way the comic can go. Either his current millennial mindset of power and control are evil continues and when he understand and has what created the control he will release the girls and hopefully he understands what problems that will bring Or power will corrupt when he finds the benefits of easy sex and presumably worth comes from being able to control at least women (wwe haven't been presented with any controlled males yet)

It should be remembered when trying to understand his attitude to his Father and his acceptance of the carnal benefits of the girls that he didn't create the control, he is just accepting that the girls see him as their controller and see a kinder version who is not coercing them into sex. Also they are showing as much interest in his Father's activities and possessions as him.
