Trixie spoke, in measured, low, lilting tones.

"Lean back. Get yourself nice and comfortable.

You've been so busy, and you deserve a chance to relax.

Let me show you how.

Follow my instructions, focus on my words...

...And Trixie will guide you deep into a lovely, relaxing trance.

Doesn't that sound nice?

Let's start with a simple breathing exercise.

Slowly, gently take a long, deeeeep breath.

Just count to three as you do.

Breathe in through your nose...

...1, 2, 3...

...And let out out slowly through your mouth...

...counting down from three this time.

...3, 2, 1...

Breathe in...

...1... 2... 3...

Breathe out...

...3... 2... 1...

Breathe in...

...1... 2... 3....

Feel how relaxing that feels.

Breathe out...

Even just this simple thing, controlling your breathing, feels kinda nice, doesn't it...

Now, on your next breath in, I'd like you to find a thought that bothers you.

Could be some minor annoyance from the last few days, or maybe some lingering doubts about the hypnotic trance Trixie is putting you in.

As you inhale, just... bundle that thought up, get it all wrapped up in your breath...

...Then just breathe it out.

Push that thought out of your mind. Just let it vanish from your mind.

All gone?

If it is, just say so.

Very good.

Feel how, as you breathe in, the empty space in your mind starts to fill with relaxation.

Feel how good it feels. How pleasant it feels to let your mind become more and more calm and relaxed.

Keep breathing.

Nice, slow, gradual breaths.

Focus only on my words, and Trixie promises that she can help get rid of all that nasty stress.

Now, on your next breath, just...

...Do it again.

Find a new thought that bothers you, wrap it up, and breathe it out.

Let it disappear from your mind.

And as you breathe, just keep on finding new thoughts that bother you...

...And pushing them out of your mind.

You'll find that before very long...

...You can't find any more thoughts.

And your mind will be completely empty, and completely filled by a calm, pleasurable relaxation.

Just stay here until they're all gone, each breath doubling your relaxation.

If you can't find any more, feel free to say 'all gone' to yourself.

Very good. You're doing an excellent job.

So blank, so calm...

So nice.

Do you enjoy how good it feels to relax like this?

Just let my words into your mind. Let them flow in, and hear them inside your head.

Let them bounce around your skull, and feel them enter you. Every word makes you more at ease, more relaxed, more serene.

Open your mind to me. It's so easy to do. Let my words carry you into a deeper relaxation, a deeper trance.

And it does feel good to hear them, doesn't it? You like my great and powerful voice inside your head. Heed it, and we can have a very good time together.

Now, Trixie wants you to picture something for her.

Picture an old country farmhouse in a field.

The gardens are tended, the paint is nice and new.

It feels like the kind of place you'd go to visit your relatives for a reunion.

The kind where one might spend Hearth's Warming Eve around the fire, or throw a wedding party...

One of those places that just feels like... Home. That makes you comfortable to be in.

Inside this house, picture a staircase. It can be marble, or wood; it doesn't matter. Maybe there's a carpet on it. I bet it's your favorite color.

You are standing at the top of this staircase.

And at the bottom of that staircase, there is a nice, comfy feather bed. Downy and warm. Just exactly what you need to relax even further.

And you know it's going to feel so good to fall into it.

You can imagine yourself going down those steps, towards that lovely bed. You can grab the railing if you'd like. Every step you take, you're going to feel more and more relaxed, and fall deeper into trance.

Ten. Going down, feeling a deep relaxation...

...Nine. Going deeper still.

...Eight. With every step, feel your relaxation intensify

...Seven. Down, down you go.

...Six. Feel yourself sinking, relaxing, letting your body drift, focusing only on these words

...Five. Deeper and deeper, falling deeper into trance

...Four. Your conscious mind cannot follow this deep

...Three. Just let it go, leave your subconscious to listen to my words

...Two. Everything just feels so tired, you can't wait to fall into that lovely bed.

...One. One more step, you feel your body so tired, so ready to drift off...

Zero.

Fall.

Fall.

See yourself fall into that bed. Your body feels so heavy. Let your thoughts drift away completely, focusing only on my words, and how good it feels to relax.

Let my thoughts fill your subconscious.

It feels so good to let go.

It feels so good to give up control, and just sink down into utter relaxation.

You like giving up control, don't you?

That's why you came here. That's why you came to me. To give up control, and to let someone else control you, because giving up control to a great and powerful goddess feels so good.

Let my words sink into your mind, as your body becomes heavy. Let me into your mind, welcome me in, and I can do wonderful things.

Do you understand?

If you do, go ahead and nod your head. And as you do, feel a nice, pleasant, tingling warmth spread through your body. It feels good to be under Trixie's control, and she is good to those who accept her power.

Now, hold this warm, relaxed, receptive state in your subconscious.

Whenever Trixie tells you to sleep deep, dreamer, you will focus on this state, and you will feel this relaxation fill you, as you breathe deep and relax.

If you are not in trance, and it is appropriate and safe to fall into trance, you will return to this wonderful place.

If you are in trance, it will send you even deeper into blissful relaxation.

And you like it when Trixie tells you to sleep deep, dreamer, because it feels so good to feel relaxed like this.

Sleep deep, dreamer, and let me into your mind.

You don't need to think, just relax into that fluffy bed, sleep deep, dreamer, and let me do the thinking for you.

Let all that fluff into your mind.

Let it rub all the sharp edges off your thoughts, leaving you wonderfully relaxed.

Let it push out any thoughts you may have.

Fluffy, fuzzy, floaty mind... Just floating away.

Sleep deep, dreamer.

It feels so good to lose control, doesn't it? Imagine how good it must feel to give it to someone else.

From now on, whenever I preface a command with "The great and powerful Trixie commands", you will find yourself drawn to that command.

So long as it is safe and appropriate to do so, you will feel compelled to, and want, to do it. Even when you aren't fully relaxed, if Trixie gives you such a command, you will heed it, and it will feel very, very good.

You won't even think about it. Your subconscious will take over, and you will obey the control Trixie has over you.

And when you have finished your command, you will feel so good, knowing that you have done as The great and powerful Trixie has ordered you to do, and knowing that you have pleased me.

And your mind will remind you how obedient you were, and how good it feels to be obedient.

Don't you like pleasing me?

Such an excellent subject.

And because you're such an excellent subject, when I ask you a question, you'll promptly and accurately answer, won't you?

And you'll refer to me as "Miss"?

Just nod if you agree.

Very good.

Now, in a moment Trixie will bring you up out of your trance.

When she does, you will find that whenever you speak to her, you will end the sentence by barking like a dog.

It'll happen automatically. You won't even think about it. Just like you won't think about barking on command.

You won't know why it happens, but you'll find it very funny.

In fact, you're going to take any knowledge of that command, and wrap it up, nice and tight.

Put it in the back of your mind, behind a door marked "unimportant".

There's always more important things to think about.

And of course, when I tell you to stop, you will.

Now, Trixie will count from 1 to 5.

With each number, you will start to rise up from your trance.

And when you reach 5, you will awaken, feeling wonderfully relaxed, happy, aware, and fully understanding what happened to you, and how much control The Great and Powerful Trixie has over you.

And you do love that control, don't you?

1. Thoughts slowly returning.

2. Mind piecing itself back together, bit by bit.

3. Slowly rising up, eyes open.

4. Letting the exhaustion leave you.

5. Fully awake and aware, feeling wonderfully relaxed and happy."

The Great and Powerful Trixie commands you: Upvote, favorite, and write your honest opinion in the comments section, followed by, "Sincerely, your dreamer".

Tee hee.

Was that naughty? That might have been naughty. Then again, if that worked on you, you were probably going to upvote it anyways.

Here, let me make it up to you.

The Great And Powerful Trixie Commands: when you read the next chapter, whenever Trixie or Starlight feels pleasure, you will feel their pleasure flowing through you, making you more and more aroused.
Tee hee.
