Oh god, those pearls...

This is an exercise in trust absolute. Depending how these pearls are strung, it may take some small force, or just a twitch at the wrong time to snap their cord, spilling them in a pale glimmering, clinking wave down skin to floor.
So this is about being tied, yes, being bound, absolutely; but it is also about trusting, and soothing, and the promise of the binding more than the actual binding; persuasion, not force. One twitch, one wrong flex...beads bouncing down. So she must keep still, she must keep calm, and that can be a far deeper binding...
