The House Boy may be objectified as a pillow at any time, whether home or away. When ordered to be a pillow, he must place his body so that the Master or designee can lay the back or side of their head on the boy’s stomach, unless another body part was specified in the command. Objectification usually lasts no more than 20 minutes, though it can last as long as one hour. Pillow service has an exception to the time limit when used in a bedroom or sleep setting, and the boy may be tasked to act as a pillow for the duration of the sleep cycle.

The House Boy is required to obey instructions for objectification without hesitation, regardless of time, location, or circumstance. This order is effective instantly, with no opportunity to respond affirmatively or even to ask questions for clarification or instructions. The House Boy’s obligation is to immediately obey, period. In the event he does not understand or needs clarification of the order, he will tilt his head slightly with a quizzical look to plead for more information. Regardless of circumstance, it is always the slave’s fault if this order can not or is not carried out immediately. If he is unable to carry out the order and he violates protocol to verbally ask for clarification, he will sustain a Level One Punishment to be enforced during or after the objectification. In the example pictured, the boy has been tasked to serve as a pillow for a guest on a visit to a clothing-optional beach.
