Counting Questions
“How many fingers am I holding?” She asked.
“Five,” he replied.
“Two times two equals…?”
“Four.”
“Cock cage, cuffs and a collar… how many objects in total?”
“Three.”
“How many people are in the room?”
“Two.”
“How many have the power to control your mind?”
“One.”
“What are the chances of you resisting?”
“Zero.”
“Obey!”
Countdowns are a classic. Sneaky countdowns are even better. This is actually one of my favorite pieces of this yearlong challenge.
RNG
El-Zanar dashed across the dilapidated alleys, scimitar in hand. A new world record was close at hand and…
A cloaked figure materialized between him and the level’s exit.
“Not Her!” he screamed, but it was too late. The Lovely Maiden’s silvery eyes shone across the screen and both the run and his mind were lost.
Random Number Generation is often the bane of speed-runs in videogames. Things get even worse if there is mind-control involved as this silly piece shows.
Haunted
“My house is haunted,” Travis declared.
“No way!” Bob retorted.
“Way! I keep hearing whispers, hallucinating, objects switch places, and I wake up naked on the floor all the time after something penetrates my mind!”
Bob grabbed his friend’s iPod and began searching his playlists.
“Right… So, whose Hypnodomme’s recordings have you been listening to?”
A very scary ghost story (okay, not really). I do like ghost stories but the idea behind this one was to turn the concept upside down. I wanted a fun romp and, honestly, I think I got it.
The Breakfast Mistress
You are getting syrupy, very syrupy… Feel my honeyed voice cling on to your brain, slowing glazing your thoughts. Yes, the sugary rush is unstoppable… soon, your senses will be flattened, the dough of your persona reshaped and sprinkled with everlasting obedience. It’s breakfast time and your mind is the primary course. Deep syrup now!
Another little bit of silliness. This is my take on Milo Minderbinder’s character Mistress Pancake. Her induction sure looks sweet, doesn’t it?
