Shouldn't the date be December 7th or... did I suddenly lose a day someplace?

Well... erm... it's still the 6th somewhere, right?

Scientists shake their heads

 

[fascinated]

It's not not NOT the 6th...

Am I alone in thinking "Cryosleep fucks with everybody" would be a great start to a story?

... well, you aren't now.

[Shadra]

Just finished Dead of Night. My thoughts:

The writing is top notch, as I would have expected from SVF. It's fun having a story set in Chicago. Makes me wonder if SVF has lived there, or if he's diligent with his research. Given the quality of the writing, the latter wouldn't surprise me. Never would have expected to hear about the Dan Ryan in a story on the archive.

It's probably not fair to compare this story to Kat and Mouse, but given how much I enjoyed K&M, and this being the next story that the author put out, it's probably inevitable. With that in mind, this story was not what I had expected going in, but I'd rather not focus on that.

I'd say if you enjoy compelling sci-fi mysteries, with a touch of hypnosis and trances, this story would be highly recommended. Plenty of twists and turns, with little to no questions left unanswered by the end. If you're looking for an erotic story to get off to, though, well there are still a few moments. I think this is all by design, of course!

Ultimately I'd say it was quite an interesting read!

The internship is starting to get good.

Dead of Night (mc mf ff md fd) (1 new chapter)  by SoVeryFascinated
An actress responds well to a stage hypnosis show ... and so does someone else.

This continues to be very well written and very complex in terms of plotting and concept. This one conclusively wraps up the story, and I'm glad I read it, although it didn't do much for me erotically in the last few chapters.


Cornflower Blue (mc mf md) (new)  by Beagle9690
A telepath hires a personal secretary.

Not that it's a negative, but I've never seen a story with such a focus on hair 

Structurally, there are issues. It's exposition heavy, there are intermittent bits in all-caps, some odd quotation marks during narration, and perspective shifts are not well signposted. There's a lot of references to the etymology of names, especially if they're biblical. Despite this, the story does feel like it's had a lot of passion put into it, and the concepts are hot.


Rachel’s Love Potion (mc mf md) (new)  by Ice Bear
A warlock carefully prepares a love potion that he indends to give to Rachel, only things do not go exactly to plan.

Not overly taut, but it's a fun concept, has a lot of good characterisation, and is decently hot. Unsure if this is going to continue, but it's a reasonable stopping point if it's not. I consider it sort of an "NC-lite" story in terms of how it resolves.

That is a hell of great review! The EMCSA holds a lot of really good fiction that happens to be erotic that gets lost in the shuffle.

I'm guilty of primarily browsing here for the stories to get off to... but man, who doesn't want to watch a porno with a good plot? There lies the realm of stories that will bring us out of our comfort zone.

[fascinated]

"It's not that erotic" is a perfectly good criticism of "Dead of Night." That's one reason I normally don't write my stories week-to-week. The most erotic section of "Gabby the Gray" got added in after the first draft of the story was done, because I wanted more sexy stuff in it.

Even when Gabby, Kat, and Dead weren't trying to be sexy.... they were hella sexy. Just sayin'.

[CerebusOne]

Some of the stories I managed to get through so far. Others I still have to read. But for those I have I will say, wow! A very good week so far.

Always liked the college girl goes bad stories and new writer gwazi101 does a fine job with Jackson Falls. Gwazi really takes time in letting us get to know the protagonist and victim Anna, her background, personality and circumstances. I love that kind of set up because it really shows the changes that come about. Also the villain of the piece the little aggressive rascal Mandy is also well done. Anna's descent is a slow burn heaven and very hot. The writer really does a great job showing the internal and physical changes that occur. The only thing I was curious about that I did not know was what was the driver behind the changes. What mechanism was used to make them come about. Not really a big deal though. Really good story.

Greyscribblers The Internship is becoming every bit the great story I knew it would be. He has taken the idea of the intern to the amazing heights his insight and writing talent always do. Nicole continues to 'learn' at the instruction of Ms. Henderson and company. She got a really good lesson in office etiquette and how nice her boss is in letter her indulge in certain things this week. HOT. HOT. HOT. And course so well written from Nichole's internal perspective, something Grey is so damn good at always. Also received an answer to a question I was wondering: What was up the the blue light and candles? Is it science for something else? Look like something else.....ohhh...So glad there are many more chapters to go.

Half Shims Drone Metastisis just gets better and better as the family comes increasingly under the insidious influence of the Hive. Very well written, terrific plot and characters, not rushed and slow burn hot MC. Zoe and lost friend Simone chapters are particularly arresting in all the right ways.

I said a couple weeks ago that Zorkmeisters Refashioned was head for rarefied air for me if it kept going on like this. Well it has gone on like that and even got better and it has officially hit status as one of my favorite stories of all time. Not an easy mountain to climb but piton by piton, foot by foot it made that regal summit.

It is that great in all possible ways an MC story can be. The plot is very layered and intricate. The characters are fully fleshed out with their own personalities and goals. The world built here is top notch and fascinating and expansive. The writing is professional in caliber and so very smooth and fun to digest.

Oh...it also happens to have some of the best all time inductions slow burn descents into MC slavery I have ever read. I mean every part of it is perfection. The induction methods, the programming messages applied and how they are built upon layer by slow layer and the internal thoughts and ideas changing inside the victims heads. It is a tour de force of story telling and MC.

And the best part is I still don't know what the end game is. Annabel and Jess and others continue to fall into the iron erotic grip of Gorgon under the expert 'guidance' Lauren and Naomi as well as other drivers of control. What makes this even better is the writer also throws in other victims some further along and others further back like Annabel's friend Sonya and her co worker Monica. Watching their slow changes begin is also hot as hell. I hope we eventually see a meeting between Annabel and Sonya who used to have a "real" life with husband and all but is now certainly going to trade that in for something else, something better such as...training and discipline and truths.

You want to read a great MC story without flaw, dig in here.

And finally another of my all time favs continues apace (hey that's two of yours on my list 321!) with 321's ridiculous Hostel. What is there to say about this one? The story is fantasitic, filled with great villains, great heroines, tragic victims (sometimes one and the same or all three and the same!!) amazing plot twists and ridiculously hot MC all flying in your face at once! Just enjoy Dearie!

This week the cliffhangers keep on coming. This week was one of the best chapters in my view. Rebecca and Alice on the run and dear sweet Emily and Celeste now turned against them. Now how about this for a shocker. Alice as savior? Yep, roll that one around in your psyche for a moment!

But here is rub to this great multi-layered chapter and story. If Alice, very clever Alice has a solution to the current problem, great. But if she and Rebecca win, what is the real victory? Because Rebecca is still now Celeste's' evil mind control craving creation! So you have two dilemma's now, stacked up upon each other and one solution does not fit all. What will happen? Damn I want to know so much.

And in a beautifully written piece of revelation 321 shows us how Rebecca came about her interest in hypnosis. Hmmmmm....never suspected that one.

[Fortunato]

Jackson Falls is amazing. I hope gwazi101 continues to write for the Archive.

Influencer by MindSpark

 I'll start by saying it isn't what I expected. First time reading MindSpark's work, so that might have a lot to do with it. I thought it would be a story about a caring father doing everything in his (mind control) power to make sure people liked his daughter's (bad) content.

 Alas, it is yet another story about a sleazy, disgusting man who essentially is on a mission to sluttify his daughter. So, there's that. The writing still somehow makes you sympathize for the narrator - sometimes you just don't want a kid and that's that. But, waoh, I am always amazed at how well some people can write scumbags. On that front, I think MindSpark has achieved something here. Is he an interesting character? Hmmm... no. But the characterization is good. Good enough that I even forgot the name of the daughter, the person being MCed here. We see her through his eyes, askwed, faulty, a little bit rapy, and patronizing. I dunno... I hated the story for all the right reasons, I think. Would not recommend: doesn't do anything new, but I appreciate the scum in there.

Influencer by MindSpark

First time reading MindSpark's work, so that might have a lot to do with it.

That would have everything to do with it, since most of MindSpark's protagonists, including in the outstanding "Baby Steps", are evil fathers MCing hot young daughters.

MindSpark isn't for everybody but for people who aren't squicked out, he's a great writer and his stories are really sexy.  Like this one, which I can already tell I'm going to thoroughly enjoy.

Apropos of nothing, the thing that fascinates me about MindSpark is the machine-like pace of his stories.  2800-3200 words per chapter, every time.

Even when Gabby, Kat, and Dead weren't trying to be sexy.... they were hella sexy. Just sayin'.

That's so true.  And even if "Dead" didn't have the nail-biting intensity of K&M, the story came together really wonderfully in the end, which (knowing Fascinated) probably surprises absolutely no one.  I really enjoyed it.  Now to go back and re-visit 'Sapphire' to search for hidden gems.  Or, just to enjoy it again!

[321]

More reviews!

Dead of Night rolls to an effective, spooky conclusion. I admire SoVeryFascinated's use of hypnosis as both a source of sexy scenes and as a driver of plot, and Dead of Night has both in spades. The shuffling thing, barely able to comprehend or communicate in our world gives the story a nice King-esque feel to it. Can't wait to see what this author comes up with next!

I really enjoyed the original Out of Mind, and the sequel opens with a nice scene in which a high-tech 'smart car' hypnotizes its unwilling occupant as part of a larger scheme to transform innocent men and women into mindless drones. To what end? Well, it's a mystery!

This week gives us two workplace stories from two longtime EMCSA writers: Greyscribbler's The Internship, now in its third frame, and newcomer Thin as Paper, Thick as Blood by connie k. I'm loving the slow burn of these stories and the way each takes time to build an atmosphere of "just off-kilter enough to be weird but not obvious enough to run screaming from the building." One gets the feeling that neither Nichole nor Jackie are going to ever escape from their new jobs- but I'm guessing that before the end, neither will care about that!

Wildwood continues to give us twist after twist after twist, like the pinstriping on a particularly large and delicious candy cane. Both good guys and bad guys continue to top each other in their struggle to come out ahead. Who knows where this will end?

Thank you, 321!

Yeah, I think Jackie is long past worrying about whether or not she gets dental.

Thanks for the kind Cerebus, glad you're enjoying it.  Nichole still has a few more lessons to learn.
The blue light is definitely not science.
Although is its use art or science?
