NEEHU 3 Recap


A few months back, I got to go to NEEHU 3!  I was one of three people there on NEEHU’s Community Enrichment Scholarship – I submitted an essay that was judged a very good demonstration of why I should come. :) 

I stayed in a hotel suite that was reserved for volunteers in addition to the scholarship people, and one of said volunteers was Hypnosquirrel.  Hypnosquirrel is a friend of Sam’s, who has hypnotized him a few times in the past, and he has been telling each of us how awesome the other one was.  So the two of us hit it off pretty well as friends and built good rapport!  I think this is the part where I usually go into a description of what someone was like, but I think I’ll go with the show-instead-of-tell route and just demonstrate her awesomeness throughout the post as I recap the times she tranced me.  :)

The first such time was during the meet-and-greet part of NEEHU itself, when Hypnosquirrel demonstrated a rapid induction on me.  The full transcript of the first time she put me under is presented here:
Hypnosquirrel: Do you want to be hypnotized?
Spiral: Yes.
Hypnosquirrel: Do you -really- want to be hypnotized?
Spiral: Yes!
Hypnosquirrel: *tugs arm* SLEEP! 

She did that twice.  My voice may have gotten a bit loud and betrayed how excited I was about this…?  (Hint: The “may” is a lie, my voice totally did that.)  The relevant bit, which was reinforced throughout the weekend: it turns out that I am really, -really- deliciously vulnerable to instant inductions!  I am a fan of this.  For this reason, Hypnosquirrel didn’t even bother giving me a trigger, she just snapped me under on any occasion when she felt like it. 

Later in the night, Hypnosquirrel and I were both volunteers in a stage show.  This was my first time being in a stage show, and I was glad that I got to do it in front of a crowd of hypno-kinksters.  But I don’t think I’ll repeat the experience.  I just did not like the group aspect very much, and could not enjoy it with the same intensity with which I enjoy being the subject in a one-on-one encounter. 

After the stage show, I found myself really exhausted – I felt very much as I do after a scene, in need of cuddling and relaxing and good conversation.  I definitely found the relaxing and good conversation! 

I spent a while chatting with a lovely group of people, one of which was a lady who goes by Miette.  I explained how I pretty much never get to do as much hypno-subbing as I’d like, and how I’m often very nervous approaching hypno-dommes online because I don’t want to come across as a creepy sub.  The women present commented that my shyness was adorable enough to not hurt my chances (eeee).  The conversation turned to robot fetishism, and Miette’s dom demonstrated her robot trigger for us, which was most excellent.  Miette herself is a very kind and playful person, and, as I found out later, a sub with a major soft spot for submissive men who don’t get as much submission as they’d like (AKA a category that I more-or-less fit right into). 
                                                            
Afterwards, I began playing around with the head-scratcher I’d gotten in my gift bag, and Miette demonstrated just how nice it feels when someone else uses it on me…I then commented that I’d been curious about having headscritches used in an induction, and she offered to do exactly that.  She petted and scratched me under, with the lovely suggestion that she was scratching my mind away as she stroked my hair.  She gave me a reinduction trigger (“Spiral, sleep now”), as well as a suggestion to use the red-yellow-green safewords while I was in trance that weekend.  (As it happens, it turned out that my brain decided to hold on to these safewords after the weekend, because they were just so useful!) 

Chatting with Miette also helped me rather profoundly – she talked about how whenever she is given a trigger that doesn’t quite take, she tends to react as if it worked perfectly.  This was extremely helpful for me to hear!  As someone who doesn’t experience hallucinations of any kind while under hypnosis, it was really helpful to hear someone else say that they did not experience it, and that it was fine, and that they could still follow those suggestions and still enjoy themselves while doing so.  This was all immensely helpful, and I don’t think one of the amazing scenes I had the next night would have been possible without it! 

So that was the end of the first day! 

The second day, I tried to get into all the cool presentations I could!  This included an awesome demonstration of fear inductions (which came at the end of a really cool lecture on different ways to understand hypnosis), a practice session for instant inductions (during which I got tranced by Wiseguy, which was uber-cool!), a presentation on pretalk by Hypnosquirrel, and a panel discussion of femdom hypnotists.  There were definitely a few things that I wish I had gone to – there was an impromptu discussion of amnesia, for example, which I only stayed at for fifteen minutes. 

I’m also just going to give a quick shout-out to AmHypnotic, who has been one of those people I’ve always wanted to meet in the hypno scene?  I’d read about him over on Musings of a Hypno-sub, and seen him posting cool things on Fetlife, and then gotten to chat with him on Hypbook.  And he was seriously one of the coolest, kindest people I could ever hope to meet! 

The second night’s play party was where the fun really came alive.  I started the night off by hypnotizing a cool dude who was having trouble going under, and gave him a trigger that his domme could use for the rest of the evening.  While I was doing this, Miette came over to watch.  She let me know that she was feeling tired from a rope scene earlier, and wasn’t sure if she was up for trancing me.  I let her know that that was no problem at all, and finished up my hypnosis session.  Afterward, she and I began cuddling…and she decided to put me under, after all!  (She said afterward that my cuteness gave her the energy she needed to do so.)  She gave me a robot trigger, and made it free-form enough that I could fill in the details with exactly what I wanted. 
                                         
As such…I was stiff.  I was obedient.  I did not move or speak unless ordered.  I had no emotion and no expression (this was one of the few parts she was clear on, and oh my goodness YES it was great).  My voice was monotone, and she ordered me to respond to orders with “Yes, Miss.” 
                                                   
Thus suggested, she had me remove my shirts (I usually wear two layers), and fold them neatly.  Then she had me fetch her a drink, and do a robotic dance.  After that, she ordered me to pick up my clothes and follow her into another room, where she lounged back in a chair while I either stood at her side or kneeled at her feet.  When I did the latter, she braided my hair and complimented me.  She also had me going under and freezing, and ran me through the three triggers in all sorts of combinations as she alternately pulled and stroked my hair.  Oh, and a very thorough fractionation that was very yummy!  She did this cool suggestion where, before waking me up on a count of 3, she would drop me down harder and deeper by counting “0.”  Looooovvvvved it, must remember to do this to others! 

I was amazed at how much I enjoyed the embarrassment aspect of the whole thing.  While getting the drink and following her into the other room, I kept thinking in my head, “Oh my God, this is great, my body is moving perfectly, I think people are looking at me, I think that couple was staring, this is SO HOT!”   

Hypnosquirrel came by and checked me out when I was robotized and frozen – she pulled out a pen cap to do a little sensation play while I was a robot (it was cool!).  I mentioned that I’d wanted to see what would happen if I were tickled while frozen, and Miette and Hypnosquirrel promptly obliged.  The answer: I still struggle away from the tickling, but the freeze slows me down and keeps me from covering up as much as I usually do. 
                                     
Miette handed me over, and Hypnosquirrel snapped me under again.  Then she proceeded to deepen me, establish dominance over me, and increased my sensitivity before caressing and tickling and scratching my back until I made all sorts of incoherent high pitched noises.  It turns out, when I am asked to say “green” any time I like something, and the things I’m feeling are really amazing touches on my very sensitive back, my voice reaches an extremely high pitch!  In the middle of the caressing and tickling, Hypnosquirrel used a suggestion to tie my legs together and my arms to my sides, and suddenly I was writhing and thrashing without the use of my limbs.  
                                                                            
She also suggested orgasm denial – that I would get so incredibly aroused, but could not orgasm without her permission.  I told her, still under, that I wasn’t sure it would work, even though I liked the idea.  She then phrased it as a very submissive thing, using a lot of phrases that I like!  Specifically, that my body was under her control, and did what she wanted, so my hair-trigger orgasms would be kept under control.  And y’know what?  It worked perfectly!  This is a suggestion type that always failed when I tried to follow it in an MP3 or video, but it made a huge difference to have it given by someone in person, someone that I cared about obeying and pleasing, and someone who reassured me that I was capable of doing it. 

So then Hypnosquirrel suggested that I would feel pleasure running down my torso, and that just continued to make me feel great.  She then began a suggestion that involved me remembering a time when I gave someone great pleasure, and how great that felt, and suggested that I would start to feel what that person felt.  (For those who are curious, I specifically thought about the first time I gave Lovely Petal a hypnotic orgasm!) 

At some point in this, while Hypnosquirrel was asking me questions, I wanted to really show my submission, and began to stammer out a question to see if she wanted me to call her Miss or Mistress or anything like that.  I gasped out as far as “Would you like me to - ” before she YANKED my hair back and said, “If I WANT you to do something, I will TELL you, boy!” 

Yyyyeeeeaaahhhhhhh that made me melt on the spot. 

The arousal, pleasure, and memory suggestions built up and up, until she had me feel a clitoral orgasm for the climax.  It was really fascinating – I felt it as a sort of mental overlay, like there was a vagina and clit sort of floating over my body, and my body reacted appropriately. 

Hypnosquirrel and I then cuddled for a solid while, and had all kinds of warm-fuzzy aftercare goodness.  After that I kinda bounced around, and watched both Hypnosquirrel and Miette have other awesome scenes, before finishing the night hanging out with them both.  Mostly Miette froze me on occasion while I cuddled with Hypnosquirrel.  And it was amazing!  Miette also gave me a goodbye trance to help me feel really good at the end. 

Sadly, I could not stay for the final day of NEEHU.  However, my time there was absolutely amazing!  I’ve mostly covered the scenes, because, well, I have a blog where I post about my scenes.  They were also a big first for me, since I had basically never done hypno-submission in person before!  And when it finally happened, it was perfect!  So I was a big mess of warm fuzzies by the end of the weekend.  

POST SCRIPT (added 7/29/2013): Some time after this, Hypnosquirrel switched to "they" as their preferred pronoun.  They asked that I add a post-script mentioning this rather than changing the body text.  And now you know!
