Title: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: Daphne on September 06, 2015, 01:49:46 pm To greatly oversimplify, there's kind of a spectrum of the subjects of MC being either mindless (or classically "hypnotized") or "normal," just different, in their behavior.
Which end of the spectrum does your taste fall on? Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: mi_english on September 07, 2015, 07:47:49 am I have little interest in someone being mindless - the classic 'yes,....i...obey...." mantra, like they are a robot. I'm much more in favour of them retaining awareness, personality, vitality, but somehow having their priorities or morals shifted. For me, one of the essential differences between your sites (movies and comics) and some other sites with similar content, is the level of awareness that participants maintain.
Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: carmel0 on September 07, 2015, 10:00:23 am Being a fan of Mind Control, the idea of someone being able to think and act as they always did, but with a completely different set of goals and priorities is what I enjoy. "By the Book" is a great example.
Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: Haight on September 07, 2015, 11:22:08 am I like the zoned out 'yes, master' in inductions... but fundamentally mindless sex robots are not so much fun in my book (no disrespect meant to the people who that's their thing, though). Take it a step further - characters who are aware they've been mind controlled but can't do a thing to resist the feelings they're experiencing. Laura on SJI 184-185 is a good example of this.

Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: jmundt29 on September 07, 2015, 11:45:23 pm My view on the mindless vs. aware debate is complicated. Generally speaking, conceptually, I prefer aware subjects. However, I've seen some excellent work from MCC/DF on mindless behavior as well. So, it tends to split for me on storyline and character and it varies from situation to situation.
Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: ozymandias on September 08, 2015, 11:28:51 am I like the resistance phase of a subject's subjugation. There's a hot sequence in the last issue of Bigger, for example, where the wife realizes something bad is happening to her. I would've liked to've seen a couple of panels of that before she finally submitted to him. In Daphne's "Perchance (http://mcstories.com/Perchance/Perchance.html)", the best part of the story for me is the part between when he first shows his watch to the Heather and when she finally gives in about 2/3 of the way down the story.
Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: lion93 on September 09, 2015, 11:26:51 pm I like stories where the main character knows that he or she wouldn't like this but can't help him or herself!

Which end of the spectrum does your taste fall on? I like a combination that changes over time. At first, the woman who comes under mind control tries to resist. But she can't. Her will slips away rapidly, over the course of a few hours, at most. By the end of the day, she is a total sex slave who loves her owner. She cannot even imagine resisting him. Her only goal in life is to serve him. His pleasure is her highest goal. Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: jlpicrdh on October 24, 2015, 12:50:14 am Corruption is my biggest fetish, so probably mindfulness. I love the good girl (or boy) to bad girl transformation, especially if it's nice and slow and you can see every step of the transformation.
Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: sohta123 on November 07, 2015, 09:35:56 pm I enjoy personality changes in the main characters (either corrupt them or make a evil girl become 'good'). And it's a bit hotter if they realize something's happening but are unable to stop it till they are consumed by it. After which they become complicit to nefarious deeds going on.
For other characters I enjoy them being changed such that they don't have any of their old thoughts/personality left and there is nothing to resist with. These are typically drones as I see. Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: Residentweavil on November 10, 2015, 06:02:45 am A bit of both, I would say. But leaning toward mindful. Zombies and Fembots are ok but I prefer a little mind left in. It also tends to allow a bit more focus on the induction/seduction process.
Title: Re: Mindfulness or Mindlessness? Post by: master on November 11, 2015, 09:28:40 am It's a process...love the mindless/mantra/repeat instructions stuff as they're "acquired," but then it's more fun if their personality returns (only more subservient). Mindless may be a turn-on, but it makes for rather uninspired reading. And this is a reading media. Ask me on Daphne's Fantasies, and my answer is different!
