“You good?”
“Yes….”
“You don’t look good.”
“Yes… it’s j…just v-v-vuh very… hhhhard to sssspeak…”

Izzy was spasming in his chair, his paws clinging to the armrests, his eyes wide and unblinking save for the odd twitch in the left or the right. The rabbit’s pupils were the size of pennies, flashing a repetitive, strobing pink that matched the lights on the helmet strapped to his head. 
Ray was hunched at his keyboard. The Jolteon's gaze flicked between the green text on the black backdrop on the old CRT screen, and his writhing roommate connected to the computer by that old clunky looking helmet.
 Maybe the reason this thing was getting sold so cheap at a junk sale was because it was cooking peoples’ brains… 

“Okay, if you say you’re fine, then-”
“Nnnnnnnnnnuuhnnnbl.” Izzy sounded like he was melting.
What were they doing?!
Rayleapt up to the computer and yanked out the cord connecting it to the helmet. Izzy relaxed in the chair with an almighty groan, his legs splayed out and his shorts tented. 
“Hhahh… hah…” Izzy whooped, eyes spinning as he tried to put his bunny feet on the floor again.
“Okay, seriously, you good?”
Izzy shooed him off with a noodle-like arm and laughed. “Yeah, it’s just… a bit of a head-rush that’s all, you can put me back in, I was having a good time…”
“Maybe you should stretch, first?”
The helmet beeped - how was it still holding a charge? Izzy’s eyes flashed, and that confused blankness settled over his face again.
“I will.”

Within a second, Izzy was up on one leg, pulling the other one up behind them and breathing deeply. His face remained sort of blankly perplexed, like he was staring at a vast landscape on an alien world.
“Izzy, uh… you can relax!”

Izzy blinked several times, the robotic blankness melting away as he staggered back onto both feet. His head lolled to the side; the tiredness plus that headgear made him wobble precariously.
Even as Ray went to Izzy to steady him, the Jolteon couldn’t stop his tail from wagging with excitement.
“Oh fuck,” he muttered, “I guess it works after all…”
“Huhn…?” Izzy giggled. “It does…?”
“Yeah, let’s get you sitting down again and see what else we can do…”
“Mm’kaaaay~” Izzy plopped back down into the chair with Ray’s guidance, drunk and dazed off the helmet’s intensity.
He sat and waited, giggling to himself, his eyes falling closed. The chair was so comfy, and he felt so sleepy, maybe he could nod off for a minute or two…
“Sorry, this is taking ages to boot up.” 
Izzy could hear the clacking and whining of the machine spooling to life, those ancient disk drives creaking under the strain of being used for only the second time in probably decades. 
“Nnhn.” Izzy gurgled in recognition, sort of off in his own world, until he was jolted back into the present by the buzzing and the jolt. Like two wires had slipped in each ear and met in the middle of his head to complete the circuit. The jolt only lasted for a moment, and then he was back in a far more tranquil and serene state of mind. Though his face was blank and his jaw was set, inside his paralysed body he was floating in pleasure.

From the outside, Ray was keeping a close eye on Izzy. Everything seemed to be the same as it was last time… but he didn’t want to keep him in there for too long, just to be safe.
Which meant it was time to pump Izzy full of triggers.
On the screen, Ray could see an option for direct control commands. He mashed the tab key on the keyboard until it was highlighted, cursing the lack of a mouse, before hitting enter.
“Nn~” Izzy squeaked. “Whassat…?”
“Just gonna try some stuff out, here…”
INPUT COMMANDS, the screen ordered.
“Okay, okay…” Ray pursed his lips and kissed his teeth, trying to think of what to start with. Maybe a simple prod at the edges, to see what would happen.
Get a Boner.
As he hit enter, he wasn’t sure if the machine would understand the slang. Maybe it didn’t matter, because the moment the command was input, Izzy moaned and bucked their hips, giggling like an idiot as his pants instantly tented.
“Ooooh, shit…” Ray grinned. “Let’s try another…”
You’re always going to have a boner, and it won’t go down.
Izzy grunt-moaned when Ray hit enter; he could only assume it worked. He grinned evilly as another idea sprang to mind.
Your name is Boner.
“Mmn~”
“Hey, Izzy? How you doing in there?”
“Wha… who’s that?”
“Sorry?” Ray said. “Must’ve got you mistaken for someone else, what’s your name?”
“M’namesss Boner, silly.” the rabbit giggled. “What kinda name’s Izzy…?”
“I won’t make that mistake again,” Ray said with a smirk. He was only getting started…
