Nora didn't bother to hide the pleased expression on her face. If anything she beamed with pride. While vampires made glamour and compulsion look easy, it was a delicate process to override another living thing's freewill and Willa had done an excellent job of it. "That was good. Very good for your first time. Once you fully master simple commands you'll be able to fine tune your glamour with different layers. For example you'll be able to give a command like "bring us drinks" for him to carry out in the present as well as plant the suggestion that the next time we come here that he should stop whatever he's doing to bring us drinks again."
As long as she lived, Nora never grew tired of the complexities of the human mind. Of all of her abilities glamouring was perhaps her favorite followed closely by flight. "The best commands tie a person's obedience to pleasure. Think Pavlov and his dogs, not to be too rude. You ring the bell and in return the person you're glamouring gets fed. You can work it backwards from there as well to stop them from doing things you don't want."
"For most things a light touch is enough to get what you want. There are times when you'll need to use more force, especially if you're trying to override a person's will to survive or their basic nature . That takes some practice because if you don't get it just right you can leave them just -" Nora shuddered, "a husk of themselves. I've seen it before. Vampires who knowingly or accidentally just take over someone's mind completely and once their will is done the human is essentially a vegetable."
As Adam made his way back from the bar, Nora prompted. "If the drinks are satisfactory be sure to let him know that he's pleased you and subconsciously he will begin to associate doing your bidding with pleasure which will make him more susceptible to the next command."
