If you don't obey the master (crush continued)

After the Crush was told the rules of engagement - and no ifs and buts 'bout it - he has become very perfunctory. "Tell me what you think of my novel when you are finished reading." I feel like one of his slaves in his novels. The master is displeased and the house slave is demoted to field slave. Well, the Crush is not getting what he wants and so he is pouting. It just makes me laugh.
