- SirAaronhalt completed his Quest and officially became one of my Chosen. I'd love to go into more details about this, but since telling some of the terms of his Quest might violate his offline privacy, please just assume that he exceeded my expectations by a good three months or so.
- I got to spend three whole weeks with Copper and see him dressed up in a tux and dance with him and and and. We don't get in the same space nearly often enough. I am grateful that the next time is the Rush concert in August.
- Speaking of which: Rush concert in August! Two weeks before my birthday! WIN! (OK, not strictly hypnosis-related. But still happy.)
- I am now living with Jukebox. I think the reasons for this happy should be obvious.
- I also am developing things with my sleepyhead and my sleeping beauty. Two wonderful people, two people I am blessed to have in my life.
- The uploader is working on CDbaby. Watch this space for news on when the next files are on sale! JOY!
- NEEHU is soon. CONvergence is not-quite-as-soon.
- Widdershinscat got married. Wiseguy and Dani Fantom are getting married.
- I am going to a bellydancing class next week. Bellydance is hypnotic.
- I had about six more things to go here, but this is a good place to stop for now. A real blog entry later.

Happy Things
With the issues concerning my voice this week, it's been too easy to slip into a negative headspace. Today I'm just going to talk about hypnosis-related things that Make Me Happy. These are in no particular order; every time I try to order them I just get this huge grin and it doesn't work.

Room trance, Saturday at FFF
OK, I did all right with the blogging but not great. Part of that was that Saturday was absolutely fantastic.
I had a private session with someone I've wanted to play with in person for years. I don't have permission to disclose any details, but I will say: Mmmmm. :) Just Mmmmm. Thank you, sweetie, for letting me play with your head. You know who you are.
It was right about the end of that session that I realized I didn't have my ID, passport, or credit cards in the room. The long and the short of it is that these things are gone, and I need to get them replaced ASAP.
But even that couldn't dampen my weekend, because things were fantastic. I'd been wearing a purplish blue flowy dress I love, but decided for the room trance I needed to "pop." It was the work of a moment to choose to wear my long, flowy red dress. Also bare feet, because I am pagan enough to like the feel of something under them that isn't sock or sole.
This room trance was a first for me. I have done "room trances" in chatrooms, of course, dozens of times. I've put all of my pets into trance, even sensual trance, at the same time frequently. I've also done large hypnotic sessions at other cons - family-friendly cons. Nothing where I would not only be welcome, but expected to bring in the erotic component.
We got to the room and discovered that the room we'd been given was, well, small. About half again the size of a normal hotel bedroom. They had lined up two lines of chairs across the back, there was a couch to one side, some easy chairs to the other, and that was just about it for seating. People were already sitting on the floor a couple of rows deep, and more were congregating in the entranceway. Mephki and DrSlashBlight (who, seriously, needs to consider a new username. Something like "BigCuteSoftyHypnoDom" or something) gave me an intro which turned me the same color as my dress, and we were off.
There's something exhilarating about trance. There's more to group trance, and holy cow erotic group trance is way up there. Hearing seventy-five percent of the people in the room gasp at a sensual trigger is *awesome.* (The other twenty-five percent? Nonparticipants/watchers and those who elected not to participate in that part... as I had told them it was optional.) As things moved on, gasps moved to moans and whimpers, also really hot. There were a few people curled up on other people there, and that was cool beyond words.
Copper was really out, and at one point I looked over and Mephki was braiding his hair! Too sweet, and knowing he was taken care of let me focus all the more on the rest of the room. And when I generalized out the sensual trigger to the Dominants of those submissives who had it... well. There were a few people grabbing the wall and gasping when I left the room, is all I'm saying. :)
Halfway through I had to bring everyone up for a stretch break, due to the crowded space. Some people had been looking seriously uncomfortable, and this relieved that. Enough people went ahead and left at that point to space out the floor a bit. Despite this, I only had about a five-foot space to walk around in.
I want to do it again! In a larger room!
Then the second night of room party... but that's another post.

Ahhh... life IS good!
Spent the day trancing people, cuddling Copper, and talking. I took a rope workshop with Midori, and now I'm going to get ready to give my presentation.
Copper goes really deep into trance when I tie him up. I like this. :)

Brainwashing Copper post 1: background
Yes, this is relevant for FFF. :)
For context, Copper has been my pet for five years. Originally Copper didn't feel himself to be very much of a submissive. He was more to the submissive side of the spectrum than the Dominant side, but he didn't see himself as very much into the spectrum at all.
One of the joys of the past few years has been unlocking that submissive side. Everything has been with the consent, of course, but because he has needed to feel safe in the process it has been a slow, sensual, gradual flowering.
Frequently his conscious mind has been impatient with the speed of things. But because of the way we did this, it really does amount to brainwashing: permanent changes to how he fundamentally feels about things in general.
Two years ago, I asked him to attend Dark Odyssey with me. It didn't happen. Even last year, I think it would have been more than he was ready to do to attend a conference like FFF.
But right now, as he curls up on the floor with his head resting on my left foot, purring, that slow and gradual conditioning is all worth it. He is here with me, right now, submissive and docile and attentive and very much mine. And we are both very, very happy.

OK, long overdue on posting...
There is a lot of personal life upheaval going on right now. I am definitely going to be relocating to live with Jukebox, though.
In the meantime, I had the unmitigated joy of getting to meet thrall. It's always a joy to play with someone new. It's even more fun when that person is intelligent, sexy, and decidedly hypnokinky as well. It's indescribably more fun when that person has basically laid out their hot buttons for all the world to see.
I always have trouble writing these posts. Play is so intimate, so private in many ways. It's even more important to be careful when someone is both as open and as guarded as thrall is, as she has reason to be. But here's a quick synopsis:
Jukebox has always and openly had something of a recruitment kink... he loves serving me, and he adores the thought of bringing others to kneel at my feet. When thrall and I first started flirting around with playing, the two of them connected and started talking. It became obvious they were very comfortable with one another. (Jukebox is one of the least threatening people I've ever met, seriously. He's so clearly a nice guy, as opposed to a Nice Guy.) Before long, it also became obvious that if we were going to meet up with thrall, Dragon*Con (the original proposed venue) was not going to work. We made arrangements for the meetup to happen during Jukebox's vacation here.
Boundaries were negotiated in advance. Nevertheless, I'm used to taking it easy with new play partners, leading them into the water as opposed to throwing them in the deep end. My style tends to be more seductive than throw-down-and-deepkiss. I was taking my time, demonstrating some gentler fun on Kitty and on Reth, and more in-depth fun with Jukebox. Winterrose dropped by to be a fanboy at her, and she was happy to be a fangirl at him.
As thrall's blog post shows, she was squirming in her seat pretty quickly. Once the extra folks left, things moved from demonstration to experience. Apparently not quite as quickly as she'd have liked, but the good news was that Jukebox was very seriously fractionated by the time I put them both into trance at once.
There's a lot to be said for the classics, and I found the pocketwatch-and-metronome worked their magic on her as surely as they have on others. Since it was her first in-person session, I wasn't sure how she'd react. Some people drop instantly, and others tend to want to draw it out and enjoy the ride more.
thrall was an instant-dropper. Her eyes started to flicker and drift closed immediately. It only took a minute for her to be completely limp and relaxed, her head pillowed on Jukebox's lap. (Because they like one another and he's comfy, that's why.) I installed her power switch, and a couple of other, personal programs. I also connected the two of them with a cable from the back of his neck to the back of her neck. One of them trancing led to the other being drawn toward trance, and before long they had a nice feedback loop going. And then I had them both in and out of trance for most of the rest of the night. At one point, I called Copper and everyone chatted together before I put him to bed.
We were all too keyed up to sleep well. Actually, I should say thrall and I were... Jukebox was seriously fractionated and exhausted, and he slept like a rock. Morning brought more trancing. We brought out the light and sound machine and she discovered how much fun relentless and inexorable trance can be. I put a thrall's collar on her and made her blog post. And yes, as she mentions in her blog, there exists video and photographic evidence of the morning's session. Poor Jukebox had to try to video and photograph the session while in deep trance himself. I think he did a great job, though! (And no, you can't see. Just use your imagination. It's the strongest part of your mind, after all.) Then I took the images while they hypnotized each other... at least, at first. I wonder if either of them realized when my reinforcing comments began to guide the session?
At the end, I installed a neural programming net under her skin. No one could see it, but it's there... with several nodes nesting in interesting places. It pulses and carries my will into her body and her mind. And she accepted it blissfully and eagerly.
She is such a fun toy. I can't wait to play with her again! (And yes. I plan to call her back to my side again.)

Back from Con...
Back from Con, and everyone is begging me for stories about the whole thing. Jukebox posted a quick story on his blog, so I won't cover that one. I'll just say that I got too little sleep and had too much fun for words...
OK, one quick story.
Saturday night during the hypnosis demo a lovely raver girl in a corset came in and pretty much begged to be hypnotized. She was the essence of hot... not too slender, easy to trance, and generally enthusiastic. She brought some friends with her, and one of them also wanted to be hypnotized over and over.
It was delicious watching them let go first to the rapids I was doing, then to the pocket watch. The raver girl was easy enough that when I was doing rapids on other people, she was going into medium depth trance just watching. And sure enough, they were geeky enough that giving them power buttons on the backs of their necks served as an easy way to shut down and reboot them. Note that I didn't have to do this as a formal posthypnotic trigger - "When I do this, you will respond this way." I simply mentioned "A lot of geeks power down when I..." and then demonstrated on my pets. From there, their unconscious minds did the rest.
I love Con.
I also made a few new friends, met some people from online I hadn't previously encountered, got to play with some old friends, and hypnotized someone with a turkey sandwich.
More later, but I wanted people to know I'm still out there!

A couple of notable blog posts...
First of all, this one from thrall talking about Initialization. I'm really glad she enjoyed it. She's one of the great lights of the robokink crowd, and her opinion means a lot. (Plus it means I can get off on having her echo the Directives, and that's worth even more, IMNSHO.)
Furthermore, she also touches on 1.02 - Antivirus, 1.03 - Skins, 1.04 - Activation, and the optional but fun 1.05 - Security Backdoor. Yes, I know there'll be at least that many CDs in the Robotization thread. There'll probably be more, but those are the ones I definitely plan. Ideas are always welcome!
Second, this post from Sex Geek. Sex Geek always challenges me to think more and differently about WIITWD, and I really like the advice threads. The part of the post I most enjoyed was SG's advice to the 54-year-old submissive man.
I have always felt that sex is great, but for many people the submission is rewarding in and of itself. I've been blessed to have several of those people as playthings and pets over time. I agree one hundred percent with her advice to the letter writer. I would be more than happy to take on a service toy of either gender without any expectation of sexual obligation. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love having my Chosen mindlessly coming all over the place, but if there was a curious submissive of either gender or in between who was interested in experiencing hypnosubmission without sexuality involved, I'd happily take hir on.
I sincerely hope the letter writer finds someOne for him. Service-interested Dominants are definitely out there!

Survival, again
I'm recovering from the long weekend and the longer last two months, so I hope these next few weeks go better than the last have.
The good news:
1) I might be recording again tomorrow night. This is good, because I have a lot of good ideas that should have been released by now.
2) CONvergence is getting ever closer!
3) The family member having the health issues is recovering.
4) One of my pets is vacationing in London and sending me updates. I really love getting his hypnotized status reports.
Not-so-good news:
1) I still haven't had time to podcast or review the DVDs I've been sent.
2) Sales are down right now, largely because I've been too swamped to promote things. I suspect the robot sales have also dropped off for other reasons... we'll see when Antivirus premieres.
3) The vacationing pet is my editor, so the new releases will be mid-June. I'm looking into ways to set up preorders.
More news soon.

A Matter Of Trust
I haven't updated as much lately, because to be honest my thoughts haven't been all that blissful. I got word that the recording studio I was using is no longer going to be operational. It couldn't have happened at a worse time. I'm waiting on word on when I can get back the raw recordings I've already done.
Thank goodness for hypnosis, because without it I'd be a basket case!
One thing this has done, however, is point up once again the value and meaning of trust in the D/s relationship - and the truth that it has to go both ways. This is true for all D/s, of course, but I can't help but think it matters more for hypnotic D/s than for, say, protocol-based housecleaning servitude. (No, I have no evidence to back up this claim. Sue me. :) )
Right now, my pets have to trust that I will go back to being able to Dominate them at whim instead of having to work up to it. They have to trust that they still matter to me in this time where everything unnecessary is being burned away.
And I have to trust them as well - to be mature adults, to look after each other in small ways, to spoil me and pamper me without the prospect of immediate or indeed any reward. I have to trust them to have the best interests of our Family at heart, instead of just their own.
All of which is to say that daily, I am getting proof that I made the right Choices in my Chosen. Because they are doing that and more.
And I am so deeply grateful.
