The big day is fast approaching, and Star is conducting her final rounds, checking in on each of her friends to make sure that everything is perfect, and having a little fun as she goes.
11621403 Hey thanks! I'm glad you liked it, I'm always a bit worried, especially on ones like this that get a bit out there. I'm hoping I'm over a hill now and can get the next one out faster.
Absolutely delightful. Your new approach compared to the dropped chapter is spot-on, I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays out (and also more post-hypnotic suggestions, that gave me a good chuckle).
11621483 I'm glad you're liking it! Seems like the switch over was probably worth the headache.
I can neither confirm nor deny the presence of post-hypnotic suggestions in this chapter - any strange behaviour you may be perceiving in Princess Celestia is probably just due to the stress of being locked in an *extremely serious* battle of wits for the fate of Equestria.
Can't wait for the twist ending where Twilight is the true one in control, using Starlight as her powerful puppet to do all the big hypnosis work for her. (I joke, I joke, that's not gonna happen... unless?)
You know, you start with an almost reasonable explanation for the face-plate. Being able to get a clear look at yourself, inspect for signs of tampering, and checking your tells -- that's worth a little "embarrassment".
But then,
'As a Princess, our mind is all but impregnable to mortal magic...' she reminded herself, the thought reverberating throughout her consciousness as she began to wriggle out of her panties, bringing them down the great length of her smooth, supple thighs. 'Our mind is impenetrable. Mental magic and mental manipulations do not affect us. There is never a reason to suspect either mental magic or mental manipulation...'
Well, *magic* might not affect you, and hypnosis is *not* magic.
if she could understand what artefact Starlight had found, or at the very least, how she was sing it
typo -- "using it"
inward from her seat planting and elbow on the table's edge
Typo -- "an elbow"
It was almost captivating to watch, and think of all the ways in which it was beneath her notice. All the ways in which it was meaningless, and not worth thinking about. She felt, in that moment, as if she could spend hours, perhaps even days, staring at it, and thinking of nothing other than its insignificance.
Yep, hypnotized.
Starlight finished filling Celestia's a slid it back across the table
Typo -- "and slid it back" I think.
There was, however, and upshot. Celestia now knew that she was getting to her.
"an upshot"
Patch Notes: I made some small edits to the previous 2 chapters, nothing major, just trying to fit things together a bit better following the change in plans.
Got the diffs (with context) so we can easily see what changed?
- So, Starlight did hypnosis, with the gem as a focus/trigger. Celestia is being "allowed" to search for, but not find, the trances of magic, and is finding reasons to justify slutty behavior.
Actually some of the best use of post-hypnotic suggestion I've seen on the site, my god. I love stark contrast between perceptions and this really hit the spot for that. You did an excellent job showing the dramatic irony of it all.
The fact that Celestia could probably just vaporize Starlight on the spot, but actively tricks herself into not doing so... Starlight is doing a delicious job toying with her food.
11621542 All the best battles involve face-planting a cake and public displays. And apparently adding milk to tea, which I never would have thought of, but here we are.
Good effort and the right approach, but Celestia was denied the necessary pieces of the puzzle. Great work in giving us some idea of what's going on outside of her head.
Worth the wait, this and the previous chapter have gripped my attention better then any other hypno fic i have read the past couple of years, real good mix of suspense and erotic.
11621752 Thanks for pointing out these errors, I'll get after fixing them!
I don't have a proper list of the changes, they're not worth looking for, it's just making mention to the choker 2 or 3 times. If I find a free few minutes I'll pull them.
I know we just got this chapter but I’m so eagerly anticipating the continuation of this story!!

This is pretty fascinating. Celestia is desperately looking for SOME telltale sign of Fuckery, while not realizing that she's being fucked with.

And now I'm waiting again. Anticipation is good stuff, as was the latest chapter.
Keep it up!

We'll just have to wait and see :)

Thanks so much! It's great that you're enjoying it. It seemed like a fun direction to go in, I'm glad it's panning out.

OMG thanks so much. I'm glad the change in direction is working so well for you. I'll try to keep it up.
