Nick paces eagerly, his athletic gear tossed across his bed, while Dylan sits cross-legged on the floor with a thick novel. Their friend, Eric, grins, a spiral-shaped pendant glinting in his hand. "Ready to see if I can hypnotize both of you?" Nick flashes a competitive smile, nodding, and Dylan looks up from his book, curiosity flickering in his eyes.
Eric[/@ch_3] begins his experiment. The boys sit side by side, framed against posters of soccer and superhero comics.]
Eric swings his spiral pendant gently, his voice lowering. "Let your bodies feel very relaxed, heavier with every breath. You’re sinking deeper and deeper..." Nick's eyes flutter, his shoulders slumping as the words wash over him. Dylan blinks slowly, his gaze slipping from the pendant to the floor, half-lost in the trance.
Eric[/@ch_3]'s voice fill the space, as both twins appear spellbound.]
Eric studies their faces, a flicker of uncertainty crossing his own. "Go deeper. The deeper you go, the more relaxed you feel. In a moment, I’ll snap my fingers and you’ll both be under my control," he says, voice trembling with excitement. Both Nick and Dylan nod, eyes closed, surrendering to the suggestion.
Eric[/@ch_3]'s next command.]
Eric snaps his fingers, his authority growing. "Strip down to your underwear," he orders. Nick quickly pulls off his shorts, revealing colorful tighty-whites, while Dylan stands quietly, his diaper exposed. "Dylan, you’re a bedwetter. What do you wear during the day?" "Tighty-whites like my twin brother," Dylan responds, voice flat and distant.
Eric smirks, glancing down at his own boxers. "Guess I’m the only one in boxers. What does that say about you, Nick?" "At least we didn’t have to repeat the fifth grade," retorts Nick, a spark of mischief in his voice even under hypnosis. Eric's face darkens, and he turns to Dylan.
Eric[/@ch_3] gives a final command. A wrestling mat sits rolled in the corner, symbolizing their brotherly competition.]
"Dylan, give Nick a wedgie," he says. Dylan moves robotically, grabbing the waistband of Nick's underwear and yanking, eliciting surprise from his twin. "What happened? Why did Dylan give me a wedgie?" Nick asks, blinking as the trance begins to fade. The room erupts in laughter, the tension dissolving into the weekend’s familiar chaos.
