A wonderful opening, i wonder what sort of object he would become? I'm thinking sundial but we'll see!

Oh my! This was awesome and amazing!

Incredible. So sweet and sexy. The transformation aspect was hot. The ethical and consent dilemmas were well integrated. Your writing style and phrasing were spot-on. And, man… the attention to detail was just mind blowing. Great job. My compliments to the chef!

Content Warning: Mention of abusive relationships. I am so, so, SO glad I stuck around to read the rest of this story--I can't thank you enough, @Naedre, for being so kind and messaging me to sort it out. Because this is one of the best things I've read in years--not just on this website, but PERIOD. It's always funny when people ask me what good books/stories I've been reading lately, and I have to leave out the ones from GSS ("Oh, it's called...'Curse of 100 Bottoms'...). What stands out most for me in this chapter is that we're seeing inside Riley's head. Not only is a fascinating look at how the spell works (Riley being aware of the absence of things is particularly fun), but it's a sadly realistic look at how people in abusive relationships end up feeling about the people who the abuser actively isolates them from. The scene where Riley lists how much he hates Tyler because Tyler is kind, considerate, and genuinely loving--all the things that Brian *isn't*--breaks my heart open. Riley knows that he doesn't deserve to be a slave, and further that he loves Tyler, even though Brian's "programming" makes him angry about it. I admit that I'm a sucker for "love conquers all" stories, and seeing that happen here makes me happy. I hope that Riley's love of Tyler, and Tyler's love of Riley, win out in the end! Speaking of winning out, you've done an excellent job at laying a potential way for Brian to lose. Tyler, Noah, and Joe are all safe from any sort of mind control--presumably including Riley's new hypnotic abilities--but while Brian wished himself to be "protected in every way" from the trio, he *didn't* include Riley on the list, as he thought he didn't have to worry about his slave rebelling. So now Brian is trapped alone with a man who (again thanks to Brian's "say yes whenever I make a change to myself" wish) is producing the same pheromones that make people vulnerable to hypnosis and *has the explicit power of hypnotizing anyone he talks to.* Here comes karma! :D That's another awesome aspect of this chapter--after seeing into Brian's head and what a selfish, horrible, morally bankrupt person he is, we get to see the consequences of those traits. He can't imagine that Tyler, Noah, and Joe won't say yes to the pheromone wish because he can't imagine anyone not wanting to be cruel and dominating. And his ego is so enormous that he never even considered that a wish-granting immortal djinn would be more powerful than him; the image of Brian uselessly throwing a tantrum and demanding Javi obey him at the chapter's end was the perfect contrast to how much I hated him at the end of his POV chapter. Finally, I also want to commend you on discussing the different versions of love in the world and how difficult it is to express them ("English is a stupid fucking language" is PERFECT). You show that sexual, romantic, platonic, and friendship love can exist simultaneously among different people, and that's a rare thing to see. In short, this story is truly special. Thank you for writing it, and sharing it with all of us! :)

I really enjoy the wholesome and yet raunchy vibe here—I was a little worried there might be some kind of blackmail going on, but ultimately it was just one guy taking advantage of an uptight bastard’s attraction to him to get said bastard to let loose. And he let loose _hard!_ Congrats to De. Also, you always find such perfect refs. I loved both these men. EDIT: also forgot to add that the casual sexuality was even more intense and hot in this one! I loved the bulletin board and the sounds as De walked through the hallway, such good touches.

i love this story...want to experience what the former Danny is experiencing

This was SUPER fucking hot btw. Loved it.

This little tale was so fun and hot! The monster that is Kingsley stumbling down the road is a perfect opener. As always, the casual bisexuality of everyone in KOK is an absolute blast. Also, I’m a sucker for scenes like the last one, with the near-romantic intimacy and the revelation that despite the intense dom/sub dynamic, there’s a deep undercurrent of consent and genuine, wholesale desire. Love it.
