Earlier this week Bill was a bit more under the weather than usual.  Knowing how well he responds to hypnotic suggestion, I thought I might be able to convince his body to feel at least some better.  I offered suggestions for relaxation to help in letting go of the anxiety that so often accompanies being ill.  He seemed to respond positively and after a while, he said he was feeling a little better.

Later in the afternoon when Richard and Graham stopped by, Bill casually mentioned I’d hypnotized him that morning.  Right away, the “me, me, me – hypnotize me” teasing started.  Even though they say they are joking when they tease me that way, I suspect there’s a least a little truth to it :)

Since it seemed a fun idea and something that might further boost Bill’s spirits, I thought – why not?  Even though it’s soooo difficult to watch them as they go under, knowing they are putty in my hands (smiles – you know I love it), I tranced each one of them.

Richard was my first victim.  He, like Bill and Graham, is quite suggestible now.  Perhaps it is the frequency with which they are hypnotized :)  At any rate, they respond well and seem to forget suggestions whenever I ask them to.  (Forgetting makes playful suggestions more fun because they have that whole “now why did I say or do that” demeanor about them later).    Once he was in a nice, deep place, I informed Richard every time that day when he thought about food he would hum the Chili’s “Baby Back Ribs” song.  He was to do it under his breath in an absent minded sort of way and not realize why.  Wow, he thinks about food a lot!  After a while I regretted that suggestion as *I* couldn’t get the silly song out of my head either.

Graham, who is by far the most reserved of the bunch, doesn’t like to do dishes at all.   I suggested he would eagerly jump up after dinner and offer to do the dishes by hand.  Not only that, he would put on one of my mixed CDs and dance a bit while he was doing it.  I must say, he is quite cute dancing around while singing “Save A Horse, Ride a Cowboy”.    He also proved my wooden spoon made a very good mic :)  I don’t know if he remembered what I’d asked of him when he was hypnotized as I didn’t specifically tell him to forget, but he didn’t mention it.  I do know he had to have been obeying a hypnotic suggestion or he never would have been dancing and singing in such a carefree manner with Bill and Richard in the house.

Bill’s instructions were simple:  every time that day when he saw a woman he thought was sexy, he would sit up straight, smooth out his pants, and turn to one of the other guys and say, “Don’t you think there’s something about her?”  I now know he thinks one of the weather girls on the Weather Channel is scrumptious as well as one of the news anchors on MSNBC.  No material for teasing there ;)

Not too long ago I told Richard about the Domme aspect of my life and the part hypnosis plays in it.   He was a bit surprised because of his preconceived notions about Dommes, but he was accepting and interested.   I am amazed there are now four men in my every day life – all living in my conservative, religious, Southern town* – who know about my Dommeliness and who completely accept it without any qualms whatsoever.  It feels wonderful to know I can be myself around them, especially since I spend so much time with them.

My confession took place the night of Graham’s barbecue and since we were all there together and the topic had been raised, we decided to have a little hypnotic fun.  I hypnotized all four of them, one at a time.

Initially I didn’t do anything in the slightest bit kinky. I’ve hypnotized Bill and Graham many times over the past few years so I thought the most effective way to explain triggers to Richard would be a demonstration.

Graham has had a verbal trigger for a long time, so I used it to take him under and then helped deepen his trance with a few suggestions. Since he has been a bit down recently, I decided to cheer him up a bit by holding his hand in mine, brushing my fingertips across his palm, and telling him how good it felt – soothing, but a bit ticklish. He laughed a little, so I suggested it would work when he did it as well. After teasing the palm of his hand for a bit, having him do the same,  and watching as he smiled and laughed, I brought him back up.  Since he is by nature the most solemn among us, I think Richard was surprised to see Graham so relaxed and animated.

Bill has a trigger that is more physical in nature. All I have to do is reach up, caress his temple, and he’s under very deeply, very quickly. In addition, of all of them, it is easiest to convince him to forget the suggestions I’ve given.  I eased him under and decided to use that amnesiac ability to have a little fun.

He’s a very competitive person – he *really* likes to win but he’s good-natured about it. He’s also very proud of his poker face.   To mess with him a bit, I suggested that during their card game that night, every time he thought he had the winning hand, he would clear his throat.  It seemed to work like a charm and he must not have remembered the suggestion at all because later every time he cleared his throat the others laughed and he looked truly puzzled as to why. Finally the third time he did it, they told him.

Richard was attentive the whole time, but being the cheeky fella he is, he finally urged, “Show me something a Domme would do.” I almost laughed right then because of course, by saying that he was urging the Evil Cowgirl to come out and play.

Since it was David’s turn next, I decided to be gentle – mostly.  I did a short induction where I described him lying back in a hammock on a warm sunny day, feeling so relaxed, letting his mind wander and allowing all his conscious thoughts to slip away. After about five minutes he seemed to be completely relaxed and suggestible. After casually wrapping a tie I’d borrowed from Graham around David’s wrists, I told him he would feel as if he were completely bound and unable to free himself unless I allowed him to. At my encouragement, he tried but to no avail. When I asked him how it felt to know he couldn’t get away, he replied it felt good.. exciting.. and shifted in his seat a bit. Because I didn’t want to embarrass him too much I brought him up.

Richard was intrigued and clearly enjoying watching. He teased me for bringing David up so quickly, asking if I was trying to keep David from being embarrassed – or me.

He was so asking for it.

With him, I did a much longer induction. I wanted to make sure he was really suggestible :) (See my halo?) After about ten minutes, I asked him to imagine he was sitting at the bar in the kitchen at Bill’s. I’d just finished making brownies and he had just watched me lick the spoon. (Yes, he squirmed. I felt no pity.) I then described handing him the bowl and asked him to imagine running his finger along the inside and then slipping it inside his mouth to lick it clean. “When you do, whatever you feel on your index finger, you’ll feel on your favorite body part as well.  You’ll remember everything that’s happened during this time whenever I awaken you.”

The others snickered and nearly made me laugh as well, but I maintained my composure.  I stood behind his chair as he followed my instructions.  I didn’t want him to be toooo embarrassed when I brought him up.  After three or four times of his finger “swiping the bowl” I brought him up and then left the room.   Walking away, I heard him say, “DAMN!” as the others burst out laughing.

I was thinking back to all that today when they were playfully harassing me.  You’d expect them not to mess with me too much when they know what I might do to them.  Hmm… you don’t think they tease me to *get* me to do things to them… do you?
