"It's time to sink for me again, pet. You don't need to close your eyes; we both know that you're very good at relaxing for me with them open. Just let yourself watch your phone, and focus all of your attention on my words and my hypnotic voice as you allow yourself to find a comfortable position in your seat. If you need to shift at any time to become more relaxed, you'll find that you can do so easily and effortlessly without needing to pay any attention to what you're doing. Right now, you don't need to think about your surroundings at all. Just listen to my voice and let everything else go.
"And you'll find, as you do so, that you stop really seeing what's in front of you. Your phone is still there, the display still shows this file playing as you let your eyes go glassy and unfocused and direct your attention to my words, but you're not really looking at it. There may be a progress bar, or a counter showing how long you've been listening, but those aren't really important right now. If you happen to notice them, you'll realize that they're measuring your slow, steady, peaceful descent into trance. But the more you listen, the less you'll notice anything at all.
"Because what your mind sees is far more important than what your eyes see. Your imagination is so strong that you can very easily paint a picture in your mind at my direction, and that picture becomes real to you so effortlessly that before long, the only thing you're really looking at is the mental image and not the physical reality. If I tell you to imagine a soft, slow, swirling spiral that draws in all of your attention...a spinning disc of black on white on black on white, teasing and tangling your vision no matter how hard you try to follow the lines as they curl in on each other and around each other as they twist and twine all the way down to the center...well, you can already see it, pet. It's more real to you than the phone in front of you.
"And as you watch that spiral in your mind, tugging at your thoughts with a dreamy, inexorable pull that makes it harder and harder to think with every passing moment, you're going to find that it's not just your eyes that are losing track of the world around you, gently and easily slipping away into the warm and peaceful realm of your imagination. It's your whole body. Your lips are slowly parting just a little into a vague and dreamy smile, so that when you respond to my words it's only in your head. Your limbs are relaxing into a soft, drowsy lethargy, as the gentle, blissful sensation of trance in your mind takes over. You're becoming a passenger in your own body, pet. You're gradually giving up control and letting yourself ride along in trance just like you're riding along in the bus.
"And just like in the bus, there's someone else driving. You can feel me slipping effortlessly into control of your mind and your body, so that you can relax and enjoy the sensation of drifting deeper into the spiral in your mind's eye. You know that if you need to move to let someone by, or answer a question, that the part of you that loves to be guided and controlled and obedient will respond without disturbing this trance. If there's something urgent or important happening, you'll wake, of course; but otherwise, you'll simply act without thinking, so that you can continue to float into my deep hypnotic spell. Your waking mind may not even remember if the interruption is tiny, or mundane. The spiral is so much more interesting anyway.
"You'd much rather watch the spiral than think now. Isn't that right, pet? The spiral is fascinating because it never stops turning, never stops pulling you in, never stops drawing the thoughts out of your mind like streams of soft mist. You can actually see the thoughts flowing out of you, little wisps of fog swirling around the curves of the spiral before disappearing to leave your mind that much more thoughtless and obedient. You love to be thoughtless and obedient, pet. It makes you happy and relaxed.
"It feels good to be blank right now. You don't have anywhere you need to be, you don't have anything you need to do, you can just relax and let yourself ride along. You're a passenger now, pet, and passengers are passive. That's exactly how you feel-passive, docile, calm and deliciously helpless. You're sinking deeper into my power the same way you're sinking deeper into the spiral, and it feels so wonderful.
"And you can remember fantasies about this. You can remember imagining what it would be like to open a file on your phone and listen to a soothing, hypnotic voice that lulled away your will and your resistance and left you deeply controlled, deeply helpless, deeply obedient to the will of your owner. You can remember thinking about how hot and sexy it would be to sit there in a public place, looking like you were just preoccupied with your phone when you were really being brainwashed into mindless compliance. You can remember how good that fantasy felt.
"The reality is even better, pet. You really are being brainwashed. Every time you listen to this file, my conditioning sinks a little bit deeper into your fuzzy, drowsy, dizzy mind. Every time your thoughts drift into the spiral, flowing away from you like warm, jasmine-scented fog, they come back a little bit more submissive. A little bit more obedient. A little bit more owned. And of course, you know that you can trust your new owner to take good care of you...that's why you decided to listen to this file in the first place. Because you trust me.
"But the more you listen to this file, the more you trust me just because you trust me. The more you relax and gaze into the spiral, the more it feels like an inescapable truth. You know that everything I say makes sense to you. You know that my programming feels good and you want to accept it without thinking. You know that you're a good pet and you love to obey. The deeper you go into my words and my trance and my control, the less important the reasons for that implicit trust and natural obedience become. You trust me because you trust me. You obey because you love to obey.
