Uh oh Star.
Better be careful what you wish for!

Indeed!

That's probably not going to end well

On the contrary ;)

I agree, this might not end well...

Another fantastic page :)

And now the fun begins

*giggle* Hypnotism too? This place has everything! ^.^

Oooh, fun :p
If it's that easy to find volunteers, I'm even more eager to get to an event

Much of that dialog hits close to home.

Hehehe, that's just asking for trouble there Star

Wow. I'm shocked at how she's acting.

This will end badly... It'll be something like every time she hear's a whistle she'll be a baby until she hear's a finger snap.

181 pages in and im super hooked i really wana know whats gona happen Star is just 2 cute ^^

That's a dangerous thing to accept hypnotism is totally real but you are safe as survival instincts kick in...humilatation on the other hand....theres No instinct to protect ya from that

Is it? I've tried videos and various sources.. But absolutely nothing has ever worked on me. I try to be tranquil and empty minded to follow it but still nothing ever gets to me.
Perhaps I need to challenge a pro irl to be certain, I've always been fascinated by the concept.

It depends on the person you have to be willing for one but there's all sorts of other things that can interfere of course I'm no expert I just know a person who does it

Hm, then I guess I can't be helped until I meet a pro some time.

Even then it's questionable some people really can't be hypnotized

Will 2 stronk. :P
Like in DnD, can't use mind manipulation on someone with a high enough intellect.

Yee dnd

Uh-oh

I have a sneaking suspicion that it's actually quite real!

the next page is going to be good

Oh, it looks like Star finally finished her bottle. Was watching the level go down over the last couple of strips, and wondering if that's a subtle way of implying that something might happen soon.

Never let chishio talk you into something....odds are. It's not good XD
but now I'm looking forward to the next page

This should be good

Well, she asked for it...

I love where this is going <3

I really really like where this is going!

I'm skeptic about hypnotism.

As someone who's been on the receiving end of it, it works if you want it to. Plus being hypnotised in person is far more affective than with an MP3 file >///>

I've tried some MP3 files before, I guess they kinda work but headphones can be very distracting. The foundation of hypnosis is putting someone into a suggestible state of mind and it works but to what extent? I think you're right that it works if you want it to, but then is that truly hypnotism?

Well... yeah. That's what hypnotism is. It's not like in the movies or porn where someone can make you do something against your will and you're powerless against it.
That said, you can get way more from hypnotism if you're being hypnotised in person by someone you trust. The trust allows you to open up even more, making you suggestible to things you wouldn't normally ask for, or (in a case of a really deep trance) even know is being suggested. So in a way IRL hypnosis can deliver the fantasy if you're with someone you trust.

I've tried MP3 files for certain things. And the it can work if you want it to seems legit. It got me in the mood for what I wanted it to do. And the file itself says if you listen to it too much on loop it will change your mentality based on what the file is trying to do. I did it for a few days but what really ended up happening was that it got boring and it sounded more annoying the more I'd listen.

I did try a primer file and I could feel it somewhat taking effect, but I do want to at some point try it with an actual person because I agree that it would make a big difference. It's all a matter of conditioning which makes me wonder what the actual limits to hypnosis are. I'm not aware of what studies have been done on the subject but if people are using it for things like weight loss and quitting smoking then perhaps in terms of kink it is the most versatile, since it actually is a method of conditioning and all kinks are products of conditioning.

I've given up on MP3 Hypnosis files for the moment just because of those reasons. Maybe when I have a place to myself and can play a file on loop through a speaker next to my bed I'll try again to see if the suggestions might work that way, a la Dexter's Lab xD

As I've said, an irl Hypnosis session is far more effective :3

I don't know anyone that could do something like this on me.

That's the tricky part :/

I can say this will be a VERY interesting experience for little Star.

Not sure if this hypnotism is going to work for real. But it's a laugh to try. I'll be very surprised if it works on Star. If not she can fake it.

Next page of Shine: It's a commission type picture in comic form.

P.s. is a snerk like a snort?

A snerk is to a snort what a titter is to a giggle.

It's the same thing, just quieter.

=^.^=

oh. ok. thanks. *hug*

I was worried for Star that her commentary about the baby community would have insulted them. But I am glad they let it pass and be cool with it. Also, I wonder if they have Star use her napee...

This'll be adorable for us and possibly embarrassing for her.

Thank you for all this hard work

Did someone say "hypnotism"?

If that's so, I'm... interested to...

Awwwwww so adorable X3
Star is having a lot of fun ^^ and blushing a lot too
Can't wait to see the next page with the babytalking

I can totally relate to her about being curious. But when you have been told that you need to act your age or grow up.. Or stop being a child WHILE going up in life. It can really effect you hardcore. I had this kind of feeling for most of my life even now.

I love this comic so much. Star, keep up the awesome work! <3

I think that would be a violation in the rooms that Manda authorized her to be in.

Why? She's in a White Room. Manda just told her not to go into a Green Room without Manda being there. She should be fine, and she's not doing anything she's not supposed to be doing.

White = Cool down. OOne rule mentioned was no baby talk (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22267964) and I'd think hypno would be out too, but definitely hypno into baby talk.
Yellow rooms are no kink just age play.

Here is where Manda drew the line

Green here kink can happen as it is a mix room (But Star can't go here until she gets with Manda)
Blue is pure kink I guess if we get technical about what Manda said then maybe she could go here, but I don't think Manda would approve and I'm pretty sure Star would be in trouble.

Yeah, okay, I had forgotten about that. But, since Star doesn't think she can by hypno'd, it shouldn't matter, right? But, she's finding all sorts of ways to get herself in trouble.

Yeah... I think babytalk would be reserved for green/yellow rooms, and hypno for blue/green. But the others probably know the rules better, and are good kids. So they'll probably insist on moving to a green room first.

Either that or decide hypnosis is fine for a white room, but she'll drop into baby talk as soon as she returns to a room where it's allowed.

Oh no. This isn't going to end well for Star.

This comic getting better and better can't wait to see my part

I should warn you, that just because you submit a character doesnt necessarily mean that you will be in the comic, a lot of poeple have submitted a character so its sort of, luck of the draw. I dont guarantee anyone a spot in the comic. *hugs*

Ok

Im not saying you WONT be in it, im just saying dont just assume you'll be in it.

ok this is awesome comic ill hope don't plan ending it soon

*squees*

this is going to be dangerous... What if it works and she got stucked in babytalk mode for the rest of the day? oh god.... or even worst... stuck in babymind mode... poor star.. that amount of blush will be his new and forever fur color. XD

More likely, I think, it works exactly as intended, and only for a length of time it would be fun for (maybe an hour).

But that hour happens to include not being able to ask to go to the bathroom :p

Ooohhh... cant't wait for the next page hehehe

IMPENDING DOOM.
run star run!

Hypnosis is tottaly going to rock stars world is she secretly already wants to baby talk and is receptive to suggestion =u= trance is great.. i feel like ive been in trance when i slip out of little space :0!!

Oooooooooh no...why do I get the feeling her panties aren't going to be clean...or even dry for much longer.

I like where this is going.

Oh my, Star, dear...

I can just see her going up to Manda, bright red, expecting to lean in and quietly ask, "Manda, could you please take me where I can get a fresh nappy", and instead it comes out as "Antee Manda! Me goed wetties in me nappee!", and that, for these purposes, will be nothing short of adorable, watching her handpaws clap over her mouth as she hears the words come out.

I do sincerely hope that Draco remembers to put limits in place so that she doesn't accidentally refer to her boss as "Mawellith" or snap a salute and pop off with "Yeth Thir!", but not knowing anything about her adult life, he wouldn't know to do that specifically.

As Aricub so correctly stated, there is no self-preservation instinct to prevent utter, flame-faced humiliation.

=@.@= <==kitty with hypno-eyes

i hadn't even that of that. I thought they would toy with her and not stop

This is gonna end well. I can feel it.

Silly kitty :3

HUGS!

there goes stars adult mind and has amnesia

oh no, haha, why do I get the feeling this is going to end with star running back to manda and teca babbling like a toddler trying to get them to help and the two of them just coo at her and say how cute she's being

Okay, let's talk about hypnosis for a minute.

Rule number one of hypnosis. You will NEVER do anything that you do not want to do already! If you watch those talk shows that have hypnotists on them, making people walk around like a chicken and going cluck, cluck, cluck is all set up and staged. It's not real.

Hypnosis is a deep, DEEP state of relaxation which the therapist takes you to, and YOU open your mind to receive hypnotic instruction. If you don't believe it will happen to you, it won't. If you fight it all the way, you won't reach a hypnotic state, you'll never get there. But, on the other hand, if you desire and are willing to allow yourself to listen to the instruction, then you can move into a hypnotic state.

There is one hypnotist, her name is Charlotte and she lives in the U.K. She used to use the name Arkadia. She has done several hypnosis recordings, available over on Baby-pants.com

She has offered two free recordings, from a long time ago, hosted over on Baby Davey's Toddlerism web site.

http://toddlerism.com/hypnosis/

These recordings really work for me (well, I only use the little girl one), and IF I am ready for them, and IF I am in a state where I can accept the hypnotic suggestions, and IF there isn't anything else going on in my life, and a whole bunch of other 'Ifs', I can listen to this and I regress back to a a baby of less than one year old.

I use babytalk, for me, it sounds just like a baby. I suck my thumb, it feels wonderful and so perfectly natural to do that. I love my baby toys, and playing with them. I find it easier to wet myself, although it doesn't take that control away from me. But, in her instruction, she says 'if for any reason, you need to be an adult, or anything needs your adult attention, you will instantly revert back to being an adult.' That's very true, I've been 'in trance' and had the phone ring. Boom, immediately after the first ring, I was totally, 100% adult.
I've never been more than 15 or 20 minutes 'in trance', but it's pretty powerful, and I wish I could get back to it immediately, but I never can. I do find, though, if you listen to hypnosis recordings on a regular basis, it is easier to get relaxed, and relaxation is the most important part of any hypnosis.

Rule Number Two. You need to be relaxed, ready, and willing to accept hypnotic suggestion. Having four or five other people around you isn't really conducive to having someone put you 'in trance.' You need to be really calm, and you need not to be aware of the things that you normally bother you about yourself, and laying, or sitting in a cushion fort with a bunch of strangers, one of who offers to make you talk like a baby, is probably not the easiest way to be relaxed. You need to be ready to accept the hypnotic suggestions, and have the desire to see the results.

Rule Number Three. Triggers, like finger snaps or code words CAN work, but require multiple sessions over a very long period of time to embed in the subject. So, even if Star gets hypnotized today, a trigger like 'If you hear such and such say this word, you're going to start talking baby talk' isn't going to work. However, if you are repeatedly hypnotized, i.e., daily, to be comfortable slipping into babytalk, maybe a month or two down the road, the therapist can start introducing the ability to give someone else control, but the patient/subject needs to be totally alright with that. The concept that Star would respond to some code word programmed into her that her CNCO, Marellis, might say is ludicrous. It wouldn't happen, Star as an adult wouldn't allow it to happen, no matter how many sessions she had to 'program' her to do it.

It will be interesting to see where the story goes, though.

Well, less "it's not real" and more the use of encourage and support to help the "victim" to accept suggestion by making them feel like it's okay to do silly, goofy things because it's just "part of the fun" and nobody's judging you.

(At least, that's the explanation I've heard.)

I was speaking specifically of the 'stage hypnosis' where some 'hypnotist' takes a 'volunteer' out of the audience and makes them do stupid stuff, within ten minutes or so, that's all faked.

I am a willing user of hypnosis, at least as far as being regressed is concerned, and it's DIFFICULT to see the results if you're not perfectly willing to accept the suggestions, and it takes a while to get there. This stage stuff is just entertainment, pure and simple.

But what if you really want something, but also don't want it? Or maybe you yourself aren't sure how you feel b about something, but the subconscious knows. How do things work out then?

You have to be willing to listen to, and accept, the therapist's suggestions for you. If you fight it, you're not going to get the results you want. No one can hypnotize you to make you do something against your own will, so if your will is divided on something, you can pretty well rest assured that you're not going to get the results you want.

tottally agree.. this is not mind control... but this is a comic with anthropomorphic animals on it... so everything is posible as long as the autohr alows it. ^^

This is true, and the story must go on!

Okay, well I checked the relevant Wikipedia article, and they seem to suggest that while there is a form of suggestion occurring in stage shows, it's apparently distinct from TRUE hypnosis (and doesn't seem to have a name of its own to distinguish it, for some reason).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stage_hypnosis

If you're talking about the recordings I linked to, the only thing I can say is 'just relax.

Hypnosis isn't for everyone, there are those people who it will not work for, for whatever reason. If you are in a situation where you are worried about someone catching you, or you don't think it can happen to you, or you're stressed about something or other, it just isn't going to work. If you are expecting some sort of magical control over you, it isn't going to work.

You just need to be calm, clear your mind of everything, relax and enjoy.

Then again, you may still be one of those people it won't work for. It's never guaranteed to work for everyone.

Might be worth trying different recordings, or finding a real hypnotist (whether that's in person or online).

There's many different ways to achieve a trance state. Relaxation is one of the most commonly used, and it seems to be very popular in recordings because it's quite effective for the majority of people. I don't think there's any path that works for everyone, even if you're perfectly prepared. And conversely, I don't think there's anyone out there who's really unaffected by hypnosis. Though if your brain doesn't respond to most of the common inductions, it can be easy to feel that way.

UH OH Star be careful you might get more than you're barganing for if you let a stranger hypnotize you. you might end up stuck in baby mode and needing that nappy you got on.

Be careful what you wish for Star, you may just get it.

I can definitely level with star on this. There are loads of things I'm curious about and want to experience and understand, but I'm too shy or in-confident to peruse them. Or just plain unlucky. Every time I try and find someone to help me , they're just looking for sex :/

On the next episode of Shine.... Rise of the hypnolynx

ok i have to ask. your profile pic is confusing as hell. what is that red thing below his chin.

... i need to get my head out of the gutter.

It's a half heart x.x

.... where is the other half. that only adds to the confusion lol. but seriously the way its cropped makes it look dirty to someone with a not so clean mind.

No worries, m8. I saw that too at first.

ruh rohhhhhh star u dun goofed

I'm the same way lol

Ohh, this is awesome! Excited to see the next page. Keep up the great work!

Oh dear, what are you getting yourself into, Star. Hopefully Manda doesn't see you after getting hypnotized.

I can't wait for the next page

*blushes* It's a thing, Star.

it was a trap if he hypnotizes her he could get her to wet her diaper and more oh noooooooooo

Be careful what you ask for! Hypnosis can work quite well :P

star in that last panel, got me laughing!

Oh I can't wait to see this. Good luck staw

Wow! This is definitely my #1 favorite Babyfur comic. It's so expressive and realistic and it almost feels like it puts ME in that situation. Can't wait for more!

o.o Hypnotism? I didn't think that would make it into the comic! EEEE! I'm so excited for the next page..*lightly rubs his foot against the floor blushing then hides behind the couch.. peeking out* N... not that I'm a hypnosis lover or anything..

Star is FOREVER A BAB!

mind if i get hypnotized as well? :3

Well drawn and realistic dialogue. Mesmerism alias hypnotism isn't something my big side holds with but hey,it's a free world out there, however to me the bigger thing is that sense of "you're finally where you wanted to be but you're not sure how far in you feel okay with" cos that's how I felt several years back when I first got my head around regression and would I be a freaking freak and as the cartoonist knows I've learned to regress more and hey even yews some child/baby talk after spending what seemed ages addressing people in serious adult meetings. Seriously it's worse than accepting yoor TG/Sissy cos at least most of familiar adult world remains and your still in that headspace.

Pfft xD yes, why not?

Oh I like where this is going. XD

Yes :3

RIP shes doomed XD

YES hypnosis. Awesome!!!! I never thought this would show in the comic this is going to be so much fun

oh dear....

*giggle* Oh dear! As someone into hypnosis (Both as a little and as a Mummy) this made me chuckle. Can't wait to see how it turns out <3

Omg star is adorable in the 2nd panel!

Well Hypnosis is a esteblished method for psycho-therapy and is both accepted as such by doctors and is covered (here in Germany at least) by most health insurances so yeah hyppnosis is real.

But theres one little problem with this case. For hypnosis to work the "patient" himself has to think that it can work. Without that It wont work.

Also the person has to (at least subconsciously) want to do the thing that is suggested to him. I think that wouldnt be a problem here but you canr really "control" people with hypnosis like shown in movies and TV and make them mindless slaves that can do whatever you want.

But on the other hand its a comic about a walking, talking and diaper-wearing lynx so.... Who cares about realism ^^

But wasnt babytalking forbidden in white rooms?

I love Star's face in the second panel :3

*giggles* more shines :)

GG biy biy big star thanks for playing

There is no multiverse where this ends well.

Oh Gawdina Grimfeathers!

Uh oh. Hypno stuff incoming.

Hehehe, I could see my wrestler Soren Sylvar walking home after a rough day and due to being slightly out of it is still wearing his ring briefs and boots. He mistakes Manda's house for his own, trying to use his keys on her door and headbutts it in frustration, which just knocks him out. Later, he wakes up inside, padded and not sure where he is, blushing as he remembers a not so favorable time when he medically had to wear diapers, so he acts out with some naughty adult words and has to end up getting hypnotized into being a good little boy.

That would actually be funny to see, I cant wait for summer break to end so I can start working again and have money to drop

be careful what you wish for you could end up getting what you really want~

oh the next few pages are going to be fun.

I so can't wait for the next page! Your a really great artist 😁

Hehe... this'll be good

Uh-oh!

Noticed the person in the back changed nametag colors from red to green

if you go back to the previous page you'll see she wandered into a white room

If your not careful Star, you may end up not only baby talking but also losing control and using your nappy, and I don't think you want to surprise the others that your wearing nickers under there.
