@[BlackMaple](/user/show/180252) My thought in this was that drones will show up to a man's house, and plant a Tether on the back of their neck. This is to see whether a male subject is a viable candidate to the Program. After the encounter, the male subject will have some kind of nagging feeling about going to this weight loss center, or in other cases, it could be a job placement, a medical examination ... the scenario will vary from subject to subject. In Scott's case, when he woke up, he just felt like he saw some kind of commercial or advertisement about this weight loss program, and knew exactly where to go. Even though he had never actually seen a commercial, or written down an address. He just showed up. But the entire process is to see whether the subject is receptive to programming. If the subject wasn't receptive, they would wake up confused, and not know where to go. And they would just go on with their life as if nothing happened. But in Scott's case, he was receptive, and showed up at the Facility. So yes ... it is a type of pre-programming, but it's more of a test to viability.

@[rubbrsome](/user/show/13662) This also answered my question. Recruiting viable candidates through advertisements is very inefficient. Mass recruitment requires a lot of advertisements, which will attract unnecessary attention. Through this mechanism of drone-subject encounter, mass recruitment can be carried out in a low-key and effective manner. Whoever is leading the program must be an intelligent being.

@[Tofu83](/user/show/87624) During my early days, I definitely wrote about shadow organization that were subtle in their societal infiltration. My more recent stories have dropped that, and usually are more aggressive in world domination. But yeah ... the method in which the program infiltrates society is a little more devious. An average man could be examined, catalogued and never be the wiser to what was done to him. And even now, I kinda like this idea; it means that some kind of organization could really be out there. We never know whether we've already been or have yet to be analyzed. On a side note, regarding the person in charge. I never revealed who runs this organization. And honestly, it never occurred to me to reveal that. But the supervisor, the minion in charge of this particular Facility is Hawk. And I remember very clearly basing him off Lee Van Cleef's character from "Escape From New York", who goes by the name (can you guess it?) Hauk. If you've ever seen this movie, we are introduced to Hauk as he oversees the prisoner transfer of Snake Plissken. And one of the first thing Plissken endures is a medical examination. Even as a kid, I was kind of turned on as they pistol-injected something into Snake Plissken's neck. Being a kid, I had no idea it was a bomb. But I was turned on by the control Hauk had over Plissken. So just in case you guys are wondering who I imagine Hawk to look like; it's Lee Van Cleef.

@[rubbrsome](/user/show/13662) Not revealing who was responsible leaves more to the reader's imagination, and to a good drone it doesn't matter who converted it, the point is that it became what it was destined to be. Anyone can be recruited. Maybe I have actually been analyzed, so I subconsciously want to find my conversion agency by reading the story. Just thinking about it is exciting. Although I know the classic movie "Escape From New York", I have never had the chance to watch it. I am glad that you told us about the prototype character of Hawk. I have a similar audio-visual experience from the movie "Fortress"(1992). The prisoners, including the protagonist, are forced to swallow a device called "Instructors", which can cause pain and punish the prisoners to make them obedient. There are also cyborgs in the movie. It probably one of the inspirations for my kink.

@[rubbrsome](/user/show/13662) That makes sense. We have at least a triple failsafe mechanism for the program. If the program's impact on the subject degrades too quickly after a viable test due to the low sync rate with programing/Theter during "piggybacking", it could pose a risk to facility itself. I hope the upcoming chapter will clarify the program's standards. I also like the idea of everyone will have a chance being tested by the Drone, especially since dreams could be considered as possible evidence of the facility's existence. This makes the article feel more like documentary writing and strengthens my kinky wishes of it without any doubt. I hope they can improve the programming so that even those of us with low sync rates can have a chance to participate in this fascinating project. The design of the Cum Cap is brilliant as well. It enhances the programming by using the subject's own thing, which are also the product of the reward system. By nesting a loop with another loop to exponentially increase the effect of the programming, the subject becomes completely trapped in it. Hope there are more narration of the Cum Cap in the coming chapter. Regarding the program's controller, I must commend how you skillfully leave gaps in the story that prompt us to fill in the blanks with our own imagination. As a result, each of us ends up with our own kinky interpretation of the story. Specifically, I really appreciate the company concept, whether it's portrayed as aggressive or sneaky. It often plays a crucial role in the story, as individual power alone is usually insufficient. I see the idea of making people beneficial to the company as an inherent trait or instinct of the company/organization. Additionally, I like the notion that the actual controller might not be an individual but rather something more powerful, like an AI or a mechanism. It could even be some unknown alien entity or substance. This could enable concepts like "Gestalt Consciousness" or "Hive Mind", which might be implies to the Drone itself.

@[Tofu83](/user/show/87624) LOL. I also watched the "Fortress". I didn't expect to meet someone else who enjoys that movie in GSS. Although I can't recall most of the scenes, I still remember the glitchy Main Computer scene. It made a big impression on me and actually turned me on. I think it might have sparked some of my kinky fantasies.

@[BlackMaple](/user/show/180252) Yes! The computer is another impressive scene! So glad to know someone else like the movie here:)
