Demonstration

* * *
All eyes were on the two of you. A circle of people, watching your hypnotist and you. No one made a sound, except for the occasional creak of a chair. And then your hypnotist’s fingers danced across your vision, and your focus was on them. Their voice.
The rest of the people were still there. The small sounds of the room existed, but none of it mattered. There was just your hypnotist’s voice, their hands, one gently moving your own arm, whilst the other danced before your eyes, up, down, left, right.
And you were letting yourself relax. Letting yourself let go. You knew just how to do this. Just how to give in, piece by piece. Letting your mind sink down, as your eyes travelled lower, following their hand. Eyelids fluttering, mind, shutting down.
And then their hand raised again, and your mind was back up, still focused, but your thoughts were returning. Your brain was coming back to you. This only lasted for a second, as the fingers began to descend once more, and you could feel your mind giving up, letting go.
Once again you began to descend, only for the fingers to come back up. Your mind felt hazy, drifty. Like it was in two states at once. Your body was limp, your mind focused on their voice, taking you down, deeper, and deeper, and their hand dropped, so did you.
And, after a short time to enjoy the feeling of relaxed trance, you were coming back up, back to the waking world. Your mind returning to you, and as your eyes opened, the rest of the room broke into applause. They had enjoyed the demonstration.
