The Elusive Fae

This blog is primarily intended as a resource to support subjects and hypnotists finding their feet and practising their craft in the erotic hypnosis community and perhaps as something of an antidote to some of the confusions that spread through the community.

Following is a list of the various articles I have written on the matter, as of. 2022031

As the articles specifically targeted to subjects are fewer, they appear first but both Tists and Subjects have kindly reported finding articles in each list useful. 

Enjoy.

Rhonda lay on the bed in limp, vacant half-slumber, her eyes closed and her limbs akimbo. The thick silicone shaft of her favorite strap-on jutted obscenely into the air like a priapristic erection, unable to go soft no matter how deeply the woman wearing it sank into mindless trance. Her shirt hung open, revealing her small breasts and stiff brown nipples. Even the tie she wore dangled loosely to one side, as though it too had surrendered to the state of hypnosis that claimed its owner. The room filled with silence for a long moment, a silence broken only by the rhythmic tick of the metronome. Rhonda’s breathing gradually synchronized with its beat, slowing into lazy calm that defeated her every effort to think. Finally, as if from a long way away, she heard herself say, “I am ready to obey.”

The tiny slip of a woman that was watching her from across the room stood up out of her chair and went over to the bed. “That’s a very good girl!” she cooed, her alabaster fingers moving to caress Rhonda’s lightly tanned chest and tweak her firm nipples. “I’m so proud of you. You found every last hint of resistance, everything inside of you that wanted to fight me, and didn’t it feel so good to erase it for me, pretty pet?” Rhonda slowly, sleepily nodded. She never even really knew what hit her when Alice started the metronome going and began to speak to her in calm, measured tones; as far as she was concerned, she’d just picked up some cute femme she was going to rail with her biggest toy until the meek and helpless little slut begged for more. The hypnotic trance caught her totally off-guard.

Alice smiled, slipping out of her skirt and panties and crawling onto the bed next to her supine lover. “I knew you’d understand. It’s a very pretty cock, sweetie, it really is. And I’m really going to enjoy riding it. But nothing turns me on like finding some big butch dyke with all the lesbian daddy energy in the world and teaching her how to become my personal fucktoy. You wouldn’t deny me that, would you, my sweet slut?” Rhonda drowsily shook her head. She wouldn’t deny Alice anything, not anymore. Not after Alice hypnotically induced the most perfect ecstasy Rhonda could imagine before promising her that the more she sank inside herself and permanently erased any resistance to Alice’s control, the more of that pleasure she would feel. Alice didn’t even need to speak after that. She only needed to wait until Rhonda rooted out her own self-determination and made herself into the perfect slave.

“I didn’t think so,” Alice chuckled, settling herself with a tiny gasp of arousal onto the cock jutting up from Rhonda’s crotch. “Oh… oh fuck,” she murmured, unable to stop a quiver of excitement from entering her voice. “Oh, you’re such a big girl, aren’t you, honey? You’re such a big girl for Mistress Alice, mmmm….” Alice’s eyes went vacant and unfocused for a moment as she sank all the way down onto the silicone shaft. Then, with a gleam of anticipation in her eyes, she reached down and grabbed Rhonda’s chest. “Show me, sweetie. Show me how my pretty slut fucks.” It wasn’t the position the butch woman usually found herself in, but it didn’t take Rhonda long to get used to it. Within moment, her hips rose and fell with mindless, ceaseless devotion as she pounded her new lover’s hungry cunt.

Alternative Title: “The stupidest idea I have had within the space of this week”

A few days ago I was playing a board game with some friends and I noticed how we would always read out the text on the card we played, regardless of how often the card came up. By the end of the game, we all knew a few of the cards off by heart, including ones we had never played, just because of this repetition.

I’ve also been on a bit of a game design kick recently and have been reading a lot about board design for games. These two things combined in my head to create the question: “Can you make a board game that hypnotizes people as they play?”

Well, I had a think and I came up with an idea. I decided to share it because frankly an idea this stupid needs to be shared, so I quickly knocked up a crude but functional board for it. And yes, it is basically just snakes and ladders with a twist. I went for snakes and ladders, because it has very simple mechanics that don’t get too in the way, as well as forcing players to repeat certain parts of the board.

You Will Need:

-One counter per player

-D6 die

-Supervision

How To Play:

-Each player places their counter on the Start square. Everyone rolls and the person with the highest goes first.

-The player rolls the D6 and moves the number of spaces show on the die. When they land on a square, they read out the text on the space.

-If the space you land on has the start of a green line, you move to the space the green line is attached to (which will always be down the board). Reading both the space you land on and the space you end up on.

-If the space you land on has the start of a red line, you move the space the red line is attached to (which will always be up the board). Reading both the space you land on and the space you end up on.

-Repeat until one person gets to 0.

-Additional Rule: Enforce the exact finish rule. If a player ends up on space 0 but has not moved the full amount of their roll, they move backwards the remaining amount. A player only wins when they roll exactly enough to reach the final space.

Going to be honest, the hardest thing about making this was splitting an induction in to a lot of small phrases that could be read together in random orders. I’m still not a fan of some of the squares, but they mostly function alright.

With 3-4 players all reading the squares, it should form a crude induction that mixes in a few styles of suggestion to hopefully hit all the major bases. Of course I can’t guarantee this without play testing but with the correct priming you should at least get something from at least one player.

- Soft, comforting to calm someone down and eventually to sleep (this is good consensual or non consent)

-When someone isn't aware that they're being hypnotized and they slowly just... sleep

- MIND FLAYERS ARE SCARY AND COOL AND THEY POSSESS PEOPLE AND EAT THEIR BRAINS

-Amnesia. Amnesia is good.

-Just making someone fall limply into someone else's arms. Yes yes yes yesyesyesyesyesyes--

-Hitoshi Shinsou. If you don't know him, look him up. Just.. him.

-I like the kind of hypnosis where people aren't aware what's going on at all so when they wake up, they're a little confused. This could be used for comedic or angsty stuff.

-The super blank expression/stare

-N A G A S! Please look into their eyes

-Faeries! Same with nagas.

-VAMPIRES. Need I say more.

-Sleeping gas. Yes.

-I think it's obvious I just wanna be knocked unconscious

-The sleepy, almost drunk state. Giggle, dopey smile, not able to walk straight.

I'll add more if I remember more stuff

-Repeating what the hypnotist says. Example.

"You're so sleepy."

"...Sleepy..."

-Yandere Hypnotists. Yes. Yesyesyes. We need so much more of this.

-Fractionation, need I say more

-Struggling to stay awake until finally falling over unconscious

-Hypnotic drugs? Ye good stuff there

- Off switches, especially middle of the forehead

- Getting stuck in a loop

- Being left in a loop while the hypnotist does something else for a while

- Thinking something and realising that’s just what the hypnotist said

- Slow blinks

I was touching myself with my hitachi, and it was amazing. He was on my phone, keeping up the facade of polite conversation as I tried to stay conscious enough to actually talk. But we were in that space between my asking to be brainwashed and the actual brainwashing taking place. I was just softening myself for him, I knew that. And that was okay. That’s what we wanted.

“You know, you parrot things back a lot when you’re like this,” he said. He was smirking. “You repeat certain words when I say them. It’s cute. Like, brainwashed.” I had to actively stop myself from repeating it. Just to cling to a little bit of pride. I laughed and stuck my tongue out at him a bit. I was soft, but I wasn’t under yet.

“Maybe. But now that I’m aware of it-“

“But you’re not.” I blinked. “You’re not aware of it.” And I wasn’t. “Brainwashed.”

“Brainwashed,” I echoed, and part of me sank.

“And now you are again,” he said brightly. And I was. I blushed, and I was embarrassed, and I was incredibly turned on.

“That’s rude,” I sighed. This has become kind of a go-to response. Showing that what he was doing was objectively mean. Maybe it was a bit fucked up. And I didn’t want him to stop, but I liked to play along the edge of that. Pointing out how taboo it was made it hotter.

“Jude doesn’t mind, does he?”

“Jude doesn’t mind,” I repeated. I winced, feeling that hit me straight in the middle of my chest. Another bit of me sank. I shifted my position on the bed, staring at him on my phone screen.

“That really does just break you, doesn’t it?” he remarked casually. “When I tell Jude what he’s thinking and feeling. I wonder why that is.”

“It- it’s the d- depersonalization,” I managed to say. My voice was getting wispier the closer I got to the edge of cumming, or to trance. “The third person. Feeling like Jude isn’t a person. Fuck.”

“Mm. The depersonalization,” he repeated. I was still looking at him, but my vision kept going fuzzy as my eyes rolled. Every once in a while the vibrator just hit a new nerve on my cock, making me almost shatter. Almost. “You get kind of dumb when you’re like this too, have you noticed?”

“Um... kinda,” I said. I felt very small. I felt like his words were starting to change me, and he hadn’t even dropped me. He hadn’t done anything, but I was responding in time to the merest suggestion of what he wanted.

“I mean you were having a lot of trouble with that big word, weren’t you? I don’t think you can even say any words bigger than four syllables.”

“I... I don’t-“

“Let’s try. What was that word Jude used before?” And like that, my mouth wouldn’t obey my thoughts. I knew the word, didn’t I? I knew it. I was smart.

“Deper- um. Depers-“

“Deeper?” He was smiling. He was cocky. I felt my pride flare up and shook my head insistently.

“No! No, it’s... it’s deep. No. Deperson- deeper.”

“Deeper.” Snap.

“Deeper.” I was gone. I had lost to myself and to him again. It was so good, god it made me so fucking wet. My brain all soft and empty and dumb for him. Knowing he made me this way. Knowing how much I didn’t know in that moment as I fucked myself. Knowing how far away I must look, how glassy my eyes were as I sank helplessly, but too willingly, into trance.

A big thing that has come up with my time both participating in and observing the hypno community is trust. Now I know that everyone has a different experience, but I’m just gonna ramble a bit and explain to anyone who may be having trouble or is new with hypno and stuff.

One of my personal views is that if you want to have a session, you should not only know the person (because ‘know’ could mean very little) but be comfortable with the person. Hypnosis often involves the conscious effort of allowing the tist to have at least a little bit of control for things to work. Yes, some people may be comfortable giving that control to anyone, but at the very least, things will work better if you know that the person won’t hurt you or judge you.

Getting to know someone not only means that there is a higher chance that they wont go outside your limits, but it also means that things will tend to work better because you are able to let go more. Having that trust in any sort of relationship means you can allow yourself to be vulnerable, which is a large aspect of trance.

I know personally that things have been able to work much better with me if I have a trusting relationship with the person. I also notice that I’m not as self conscious which is really comforting, especially during something meant to be relaxing.

Again, this may not be an issue for people who either don’t really care who has that control or are really suggestible so things work anyways. My advice for that is make sure you: A.) make sure to communicate your limits to the person and what you are looking to get out of the session. And B.) make sure to have safeties. If you don’t know a person well but are still going to let your guard down, you yourself should be able to be able to take back control if something goes wrong. You can find safety files on YouTube, just make sure to give them a conscious listen first.

I'm VERY proud of this article about a ton of things you can do to fill time with play IN TRANCE.

I think a lot of us struggle with "So they're in trance... Now what?" And we often feel like we need to wake people up in order to enjoy play and triggers. But the reality is that there is SO much available to us to play with in hypnosis -- all really amazing, unique stuff!

It is 4.5k words; essentially several mini-articles in one, on topics like:

Deepeners

Flow-state hypnosis

Waking trance

Brainwashing

And more.
