His Answer
“Yes or no?” Lindsay asked.
“To what?” David scratched his chin.
“I’ll tell you later. Trust me.”
“Then yes.”
“I’m glad you accept the truth.”
“Which is…?”
“Search your left pocket.”
He did and found a note in his own handwriting. It read:
“Am I in a trance right now?”
His answer would never change.
Don’t really have any story associated with this one. I wrote the first thing that came to mind which turned out to be this strange take on perceptions and triggers. I do like it though. Different things are good, even more so when you run a daily challenge like this. Variety is the spice of life.
Love
First, she tried the drugged candies. He ate the whole box, without any consequences.
Then, she projected hearts on the wall. He yawned and continued watching the basketball game.
Finally, she kissed him. His eyes widened, his heart raced, his soul begged for more.
Long live love, the most powerful mind control weapon of all.
I don’t particularly like Valentine’s, but I’ve always been a romantic deep inside, and that’s perfectly okay. This piece reflected just that in my own special way, I think. What about you?
A Gift from the Heavens
“Tell me you have some good news, Dr. White.”
“Most definitely, Mrs. Perkins. We’ve been studying the compound found at the impact site, and the results have been amazing.”
“Amazing how?”
“All men exposed to its radiation have become docile and obedient. The sample is minimal but, luckily…”
“Yes?”
“There’s another meteor shower tonight.”
“Excellent!”
A simple scene based on one of my unfinished drafts from ages ago. It was meant to be an erotic, sci-fi adventure. Maybe one day, I’ll go back to it, maybe I won’t. In the meantime, I hope you enjoyed this little vignette.
Understanding
He sat, almost crying, muttering to himself: “You don’t understand me.”
She came to him, seductively, calming his mind with a few, truthful sentences. “Of course I do. More than you know. More than anyone else.”
That night, he understood he needed to be at her feet. It was the best night of his life.
I remember I was having an extremely bad day when I wrote this one. I went for something simple to calm the turmoil of my thoughts. Any form of mind control present in it is implicit rather than explicit, but it’s there.
