Reader’s Picks: Inra Inaro
Works I found(though some have been deleted) here inspired my input into this corner of the internet. Not here, but rather on CHYOA and BEAddventure branches; much lower bars to tackle than a full-on storyline. Perhaps in the future, one of my many drafts will be fully realized instead of scrapped.
It has been one decade since I started reading, and over those years, I have had moments where I started up a hypertext log of favorites, and I have had moments where I delete my entire stash. So wouldn’t it be much easier to both share my favorites and prevent an impulse from burning my own shortcuts in the library of smutlexandria: A treasure trove that scratched an itch when I was in the middle of an exploring era of hypnosis, a site which I still peruse to this day.
So to prevent myself from constantly bugging the kind people on MCForum to search for stories, I hope to start a list of personal bookmarks for everyone to see. My main kink is reading embarrassed women. Humiliated in humorous ways, placed into silly situations, and forced to do goofy things that their prudish self would never do. Though a little bit of degradation doesn’t kill my mood, you’ll see that many of the stories recommended will have positive endings, or at least ones that do not doom the victim forever and of all eternity to a life of doom, despair, and sex slavery.
Who is Victoria Jardine? by Bookman the Owner
Somewhat of an example of my preferences above. It’s a story of a woman being embarrassed in two different settings as her body betrays her conscious thoughts and feelings. But while she is enslaved, the story presents the end as a mutual exchange and spins the reality of the situation in a way that I interpreted as a “happy ending”.
Though unfortunately unfinished, this is probably one of my favorite stories on the site in of how the embarrassment is detailed. Every chapter paints a vivid picture in my mind of the character being subjected to “retribution” by her roommates. It is filled with silly antics that I thoroughly enjoy.
Mad Libby: Mind Over Mari by TheWeaver
One of Weaver’s more tame writings, but I can’t lie that I’m a mushy guy. I liked it when the crush was reciprocated outside of the transformations that the lead man did to the lead woman. There’s little to no embarrassment within the story, and it will stand out compared to the rest. But it is probably a good example of something recurring in my recommendations.
This is probably one of the longest works I have read on this website, and unfortunately, it is also unfinished. Even though it’s unfinished, I like the general premise, and each following chapter kept my interest as I binged it from start to finish in about a day or two. The starting dynamic of love sprouting from a misunderstood hate is something I am particularly biased towards.
Tuck and Bratt in the PM by NickelModelTales
The voice of the main character in this felt very strong. I think you can tell the personality of the protagonist through the prose, which helps illustrate the contrast of what the character believes in and what they’re made to do by the two dudebros. It really makes the embarrassment hit harder.
One of my earliest exposures to mind control content—I read the sequel before the predecessor. More of a drama than erotica, while I was lured by the surface embarrassment that was foreshadowed, what kept me engaged was the character drama between the two lesbian lovers as one crosses the lines of ethics, as something that brought them together splits them apart.
Genre-Savvy Slavegirl by Alecta’s Shadow
Keeping on the theme of lesbians for the past recommendation is one trapped in a humor-filled dystopia where the AI overlords have determined that porn logic is the only logic worthwhile. Our protagonist seems to have fit a niche of being the blue-collar man’s “conquest,” and self-aware humor coats the scene with enough zip to make the embarrassment all the more enjoyable.
The Game of Life by Curse Master W
Stories that base themselves around either a game or a game show—this was my introduction. A story of two women who want to tear each other down to the point of magical sabotage and a wide gamut of transformative effects based on whatever they fill in the blank each turn. Though I feel that other entries have covered this to a better vein, this holds a place in my memory of being one of the first of this type I have read.
Talk Like a Pirate by Lisa Teez
Though not the most conventional way to show one of my personal favorite touches, this story makes use of the accents and dialect choices of rough and tumble pirates to elicit out-of-character responses from the three female leads as they are affected by a sea witch. Usually, I’m a bigger fan of the victims being afflicted with various changes to their vernacular, but this is a pleasant exception.
Potion Commotion by Volt Namazuros
This is the more conventional showcase of dialect changing doing something for me. I love it when they’re changed to speak in an embarrassing way, and the antics that the witch is subjected to due to her hubris are absolutely amazing. Died by their own sword in the most figurative sense of the phrase—because they were stabbed by another’s.
