G/B smut advice.

[ladydrace]

I'm working on a G/B fic with Julian as dom. Not really hard BDSM (as I doubt I can even write that) but I do plan on having some smacking/spanking/slapping something or other going on. But here's my dilemma... would Julian use "toys" (paddles, whips, cuffs or whatever) or would he be a hands-on kinda guy in your opinion?

Garak is in my mind above using tools for sex, but Julian is another matter. I think he might like something like gloves (leather/latex or something) for that extra "smack". :oP

Or maybe I'm just lost in my own pervy universe here...

Any opinion would be welcome! Come forth smut-lovers!
