Un-skilled (Patreon)

Everyone has skills. Their areas of expertise, the abilities they've cultivated, the knowledge they've aquired. And I value that in my toys. Every skill you have is a way to serve me in the way that's unique to you.

But it's also delightful to rip it away from you. Because those skills are precious to you, they're hard-won sources of pride. And so I'm going to take your capacity away for a while. And you'll get to enjoy its absence for a while.

Note: the accompanying file, Re-skilled, ends the effect.

CN: loss of a treasured skill (chosen by you, potentially subconsciously), and degradation and shame around this. Themes of being smaller, pathetic, etc. Grattitude when it's returned to you, and a feeling that you're only capable because I permit it. Submission and dependence. Affirmations that you're useful to me, and that I'm enjoying your suffering in it.
