Trapped

Lucy was finally realising that these people weren't actors, nobody starring in fetish porn could pull off embarrassment and awkwardness as beautifully as these two. This was all real which made it even better to get off to. As James continued to hop naked around the room trying to explain his bizarre and increasingly humiliating situation to his pal, Lucy couldn't help but wonder if there was something more than just platonic friendship bubbling beyond the surface here. It was time to investigate.

Becoming increasingly familiar with the Total Control interface, Lucy hit the Read Mind button which brought up a subject box. What was it James was calling that girl? Lucy typed "Mel" and clicked again. Before long she had got the gist of James's feelings towards her. The pair were officially just friends but James had a longstanding crush on Mel which he believed may be reciprocated. The pair had definitely flirted at times but he had never attempted to push things beyond that as she was married. This was absolutely perfect. Lucy knew she needed to keep Mel around but had no way of exerting any control over her. Unless..

There had been an intriguing option that had caught Lucy's eye earlier - Cast Spell. Initially she had assumed that gave her the option to cast a spell on James, but that would be completely redundant since she already had the ability to do anything she wanted to him through the app anyway. Perhaps it was an action for James to perform? Lucy hit the button in eager anticipation and let out a squeal of delight when it led to another command with a text box next to it - Cast Spell on... Lucy couldn't type "Mel" fast enough before clicking once more. Spell Effect? Lucy didn't need to think too long and hard about this. She could always modify it later.

"Witches? curses? How gullible do you think I am?" Mel had finally had enough of this as "I don't know how you did the trick with the disappearing clothes but it isn't funny. I could probably go the the police you know!"

"I'm sorry!" James at least found he was able to stand up again "I told you, it isn't me, it's some kind of magic spell!"

"Magic spells are not real!" Melanie shouted back. With perfect timing James waved his hand and she was hit with a bright blue beam.

"What did you do?" Melanie asked. The beam hadn't hurt or changed her in any way but it was pretty freaky nonetheless.

"It's not me doing it!"

"I just saw you! You know what, James, I've had enough of this shit!"

Melanie attempted to storm out of the room but felt herself jolt back hard enough to send her toppling to the floor. Somewhere, many miles away Lucy was laughing out loud at this. Mel couldn't move within more than six feet of James without meeting an invisible barrier. And Lucy was going to have a lot more fun before she even considered reversing this particular curse.
