Being the main starlet in a multi-million dollar film franchise certainly has its blessings. Publicity can be a rather mixed one, however, and when that publicity leads to you being targeted by online hackers ready to leak your most private moments to the horny world at large... well, even the toughest competitor in The Hunger Games could be forgiven for cracking under the pressure.
It hadn't been an easy few months for Jennifer Lawrence, having been one of the most prominent victims of an enormous celebrity photo leak (nicknamed, quite crudely, as "The Fappening") that saw countless photos of her tight, athletic body posing in the cutest, most revealing outfits and underwear that blockbuster franchise money could buy (that is, when she was posing in anything at all.) Already feeling pressured to deliver another crowd pleasing turn as lionhearted heroine Katniss Everdeen in the latest installment of the Hunger Games franchise, the humiliation of being thrust into the media spotlight in the most degrading of ways left her quite visibly shaken while on the set.
You didn't think it really affected you at first. After all, you were just a bit player intern on the set of the latest Hunger Games movie. Sure, landing an internship at such a popular film project sounded like the breakthrough of a lifetime on paper, but in reality you weren't so much the bottom of the totem pole as the dirt beneath it. You did whatever inglorious odd job they demanded of you, and the most interaction you ever got with the exciting young stars of the franchise was handing off coffee to them in a hurry. Still, what few encounters you had with JLaw (as she was so affectionately nicknamed) were enough to see how unhappy this whole mess was making her feel, and you couldn't help but feel like you had to do something...
During another routine coffee run for JLaw, you nervously mentioned that you dabbled in hypnotherapy in your spare time, and suggested that it might help her relax and relieve some pressure. It was little more than a minor ice breaker, so you were surprised when she was actually willing to give it an exasperated try ("Why not? Don't really have time to book a real hypnotist session anyway.") Obviously, you were not about to pass up some one on one time with one of the hottest new actresses in Hollywood, which is how you found yourself nervously fiddling with a coin inside her private trailer during a quick 15 minute break on set.
"O-okay... Uh, I'm not really sure how to swing this thing..."
"Do you know what you're doing?"
"...I sure hope so..."
The young blonde gave an impatient sigh. She had obviously treated this as a bit of a joke, and was quickly growing bored with it. Not wanting to look like a complete idiot in front of someone who could make your young career, you desperately thrust the coin in front of her face.
By some miracle, some light peering through the trailer window hit the coin at just the right angle, lighting it up with a brilliant glow. It only took a split second of staring at the luminescence before JLaw's hardened gaze suddenly relaxed into a sort of neutral daze.
"Wow... It's really pretty..." She mumbled softly.
:Really? I mean it's kind of ol-" you cut yourself off quickly, realizing in time that you were about to miss your cue.
"Er yes! It's r-really pretty, huh?"
"Yeah... Shiny..." She said, her voice trailing off into even more of an airy whisper
"Do you like the light it gives?" you said with more confidence, realizing that it was actually working (First time ever!)
"Yes..."
"It makes you feel good, doesn't it?"
"...yes...." Her voice was barely audible at this point, and her eyes were completely glazed over.
"You want to keep the good feeling, don't you?"
No response. The gorgeous young starlet simply sat in an entranced stupor. You couldn't believe it; one of the most famous women in the world was completely helpless in your power.
"When you feel the good feeling, all your other bad feelings will go away. You will feel free... no stress at all, no pressure. Only the good feeling."
Her luscious lips curled slowly into a dopey smile.
"But to keep this good feeling, you must do what the coin says. The coin is your master. I master the coin. Therefore, I am your master. Understand?"
"Yes... Master."
Those words coming out of the mouth of the woman you were once a lowly coffee slave to. It was too perfect. Still, break was almost up, so it was finally time to give some quick instructions.
You were certainly going to do something alright... You were going to take that firm defiance and strength she showed in the face of public embarrassment and turn it on its head.
Looks like the harmless coffee boy had more of a prankster streak in him than anyone expected.
"Now, let's see here..." you thought evilly to yourself.   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
