Hard doms or primal Doms are gonna get agitated and show that aggression through their body language or their tone when you push their buttons and that helps you, as a Brat, keep an accurate measure of how much you are pissing them off
and THATS why you should fear soft Doms
Because soft Doms just laugh it off, take your shit and play along with it and they don’t let none of that stuff bother them. It doesn’t in the slightest rustle their feather.
the switch that goes off is not that you have “pissed off” your soft dom. Because soft Doms want you to be “good”, they want to praise you, but then when you make it clear that that is not going to happen without a fight, then they’ll let things go your way, most likely not the way you expect though. And that’s when things escalate quickly-
at least with hard Doms you can measure it out but with soft Doms you’ve got no way of knowing and that, my dear Brats, is playing dangerously close with fire
but we like it that way ;)
