Simple Rules
“What are the game’s rules, again?” Oscar asked.
“Just roll the die. If you get an odd number, you’ll be hypnotized. If you roll an even number, you’ll be hypnotized,” Erica swung her pendant.
“Huh? Why do I have to roll, then?”
“Because I’m asking… please?”
“Okay.”
He threw the two tangerines at her feet.
I think it’s more than obvious that some of the rules of this game aren’t what they seem, but I’ll let you be the judge of that. I hope you had fun with this little take on perception.
Browsing
Bob opened his laptop.
“Please, shut it down!” Charles begged.
“Why?
“Patricia warped my mind, and Internet became dangerous. Browsers do… strange things to me.”
“Really?” Bob winked. He loaded Firefox…
… and Charles wiggled his imaginary tail.
He loaded Opera…
… and Charles began singing Rigoletto.
He loaded Edge…
… and Charles got arrested for indecent exposure.
A silly piece which also happens to be one of my personal favorites. Which browser do you use, huh?
Head in the Clouds
“…and that one is a two-headed dragon,” Scott said.
“Seriously?”
“Yeah,” he pointed at the sky. “There’s the tail and, if you look up, you can see the heads roaring.”
“I guess, but I prefer the one next to it.”
“It looks like… a spiral?”
“Indeed,” she cooed.
He was on cloud nine shortly afterward.
We’ve all seen strange-looking clouds every now and then, right? There were some odd ones up in the sky earlier in the morning, and that served as the basis for this one.
Please
“Nate, do the dishes.”
“I’m watching the game, Jill.”
“Nate, please do the dishes.”
“Yes, dear. Sorry, dear.”
“Huh? Why did he become so submissive after you said the word ‘please’?” Dana commented.
“Post-hypnotic suggestion, obviously.”
“And that works on him? Sorry, but your husband’s an idiot.”
“Dana?”
“Yes?”
“Please kiss my feet.”
“Yes, Jill.”
I found myself thinking about this word a lot, today, so I used it as a reference. This piece includes something else other than the traditional female dominance/male submission that’s at the core of my fetish writings. Once again, I think the end result is funny, but your mileage may vary.
