Hiya rubbrsome - wow. While the original Brain Feed is certainly one of the most unusual (and consequently, one of your best) stories (and one of the best or most memorable stories on this site), your writing and tastes have evolved. The original story had some rubber elements, and barely had any of your alignment fetish. Both of those fetishes as expressed in words you have developed through succeeding stories such as "The Alignment" or those stories where the guy winds up in a rubber pod. In those stories you explored elements of your fetishes, trying to see how far you can go with extending them - sort of like a gemologist slowly inspecting the facets of a diamond. And as I wrote to you at the end of your previous story, I was hoping you'd experiment more with avoiding real-time by suspending it so that you could supply more vivid description and the reader could really enjoy and revel in the arousal brought about through your words - you achieved it amazingly well!! I'm fully aware that creative people don't want to go back to their original work - it represents a point in time and we all grow and evolve beyond that. But I'm so thankful that you have given us this alternative Brain Feed. It's not only that I want to j/o continuously while reading it, but whereas the language in the original Brain Feed was straightforward and direct, your greater mastery of writing is revealed in this story as you allow the character to think and ponder, question himself and seemingly make decisions (either by himself or by the System). Moreover, there are a few unexpected plot twists (like the complex subjugation of Alan) that make it a greater experience than simply knowing what happens at the end of the original Brain Feed. One thing that amazes me so much (and I guess others as well) is your alignment fetish. On the surface it's not really sex or sexual, and yet I find it so incredibly hot and arousing. Of course you're explored that in many of your stories, but perhaps in a future story you can revisit that and lead the reader to examine and explore what makes alignment so sexually arousing. Your writing is so totally amazing - thank you for sharing so much of yourself through these stories!

What a lovely coincidence, I was just rereading brain feed last night and now here we are with more. I'm glad to see things from Dave's perspective, your stories are lovely, thrilling, and simply amazing in every way as always.

Toy, if that's the case, all you had to do was order me to retrieve this story and post it. As a drone, I follow orders.

of course, the evil plan is to get you to post the story here...and maybe add to it. and to think that only drones had the pleasure of forgetfulness

My apologies again. I delved deeper and found the entire story. It's a six chapter story. Really, guys ... I barely remember writing this. And now I have six chapters to read and reacquaint myself with this old story. As I am the author, I have no problem posting it on this site. But please remember, this story was written in 2007. I'm not going to do an edit. I'm just going to post it "as-is". Thanks, toy, for bringing this to my attention. Expect to see the chapters begin to appear on this site pretty soon.

I might still have a full doc that I copied and pasted back in the day too. Lapsed members needed to get the good stuff when they could afford access! I believe there were another 3-4 installments overall.

Toy ... my apologies. It appears that I did write that story. I went to the malebots site and scoured the stories from 2007. And there it was. It appears this was the first chapter and I never continued it. Or did I? I barely remember writing this. Until I actually started reading the paragraph, I had completely forgotten about this story. I obviously need to copy/paste this into my story catalogue. Thanks for reuniting me with a long, lost story.

to previous poster-- yep, that's it. did it get the author incorrect? even if it did, rubbrsome is still awesome and writes the best transformation stories from the perspective of the person going through it!

There's a Conversion from 2007 on Malebots about a computer company's employees gradually being overtaken and used as software as the main computer goes rogue. The transformees - strapped into dental type chairs - enter an interface all white and meld into robots, and in the real world then have a red mark on their foreheads once converted.

Toy, that premise doesn't sound familiar. I don't think it's my story.
