Kinktober day 13, Hypno. Captain America bursts into the warehouse to rescue Spiderman. Only he's met with a devious hypno ray. In seconds he can't move. Then he can't fight. and finally, he can't think. No thoughts, brain empty.

A new doorway opens with the rising sun — all parts of me walk forward as one. 🌄✨

(Check ALT family 🍼💕🌱✨💞)

And thankfully 🙏 not 🚫 back in lock up or admitted to a psyche ward

Btw. I told my mum if they ever do admit me, I'll kick the windows out and climb out of the ward. (Just saying) 😂

The ideal gift for a youngster getting into fishing, or grandfathers / fathers, sharing that outdoor hobby. Follow gramps and grandson as they learn something new every week for the whole of their first year's angling escapade.
