Desperate Petitions; Transformed People, this is the court of Queen Quilane.
Queen Quilane sat bored on her wooden throne. It was always boring being the queen. The only thing that broke the boredom was offering mortals a chance to undo the strange and wicked situations they found themselves in.
“I will hear five petitions today,” the Queen held up both her hands. All the digits were raised on one while only her index was raised on the other. “I will only grant three. The two I don’t shall be transformed into a form of my choosing… You must decide as a group who I’ll see.” The queen smiled as the mortals began to bicker. “You have until I finish my bowl of fruit to decide or I will see none of you.”
The crowd of twenty people argued and fought over who should see the queen, they begged based on the severity of the transformation, others argued it should go by age. Some didn’t want to make things worse so had elected not to be seen. There were still thirteen people who wanted to risk going through with it and as the bowl nearly emptied they quickly played games of Rock Paper scissors to decide.
“I shall see the first petitioner now…” The queen said, sitting up. She was surprised this group managed to actually agree. Though they did play games to decide.
“Your majesty, you have to help my friend. She accidentally looked down on this old lady, and the next minute she was three inches tall.” She reached into her purse and pulled out her tiny friend.
“And your problem is?” The queen asked in an offended tone. “Three inches is a good size… though the lack of wings might harm her prospects for work.”
The woman looked around at the room, realizing her mistake. Her friend was about the average size for some of the fae in the room. Before she could say anything else she felt her body changing, she became translucent and her body began to fold in half it flattened and extended out in both directions before it shrank. She was now a perfect set of wings for her tiny friend. Fortunately for her friend she had fused with her spine just before she was about to hit the ground.
“Hmm does that count as answering her petition or not?” the queen looked at her aid, who just shrugged.
“You said that you’d answer three and transform two,” the record keeper stated. “I’d say that counts as both, so only one more transformation and two more answered petitions.”
“It’s decided then,” the queen announced. “I shall hear three more people.” She then looked at the four in front of her. “You may go,” she selected someone at random.
“What happens to me now?” the tiny woman asked as her wings fluttered out of her control.
“Oh right you’re still here, I didn’t notice you because you’re so tiny…” the queen looked down at her. “One of my staff will escort you to where you need to go.” She then struggled to fly off as creatures even smaller than her flanked her sides.
The next people to step forward were two people who looked rather strange. It took the Queen a second to focus on what was wrong. One of them had hands for feet, legs for arms and hands on the bottom of those legs, their eyes were attached to their chest, their nose was where their belly button should be, they had two mouths in place of their eyes and an ear where their mouth should be and a belly button for a nose.
The other person had an Arm where their neck should be, as well as one coming out their butt. They had two feet attached to their shoulders and eyes replaced their big toes, which now extended behind their hair. Their face was on one of their breasts and a dick was on the other breast, while their nipples were where their face and genitals should be.
Both humans struggled to move around and the Queen smiled in recognition of their work. “Swap gremlins, I love those guys…” she delighted in their misfortune. “Though I understand this isn’t the ideal situation for a human to be in. Let me fix it for you.”
“What did you do?” the two mouths on the mostly male body spoke in unison. “What did you do?” They realized they now had better control over their body.
“I gave you full control over the body parts attached to each body, your welcome,” the Queen smiled, making a small hand gesture towards them.
“You were supposed to fix us!” The mouths pleaded. “How can we go on like this?”
“Excuse me?” the Queen put her hand to her chest. “That would be extremely rude of me,” she pointed back to the person talking. “Those Swap Gremlins worked hard on this and it’s not proper etiquette for me to undo all their work. If anyone else just did for you, what I did I would send them to the mines for a thousand years.” The Queen had flown off her chair to scold the two rearranged mortals. “But I am a Queen and I may do whatever I like… however it is important to keep relations on good terms with all the other magical beings, so you two will be sent to the museum for all to see the splendor work of the swap gremlins…” She inspected the blonde hair of the person who could no longer speak. “It’s a shame too. I would've loved to have kept you in my private collection.” The Queen flew back to her seat, as the two rearranged people were already being taken away. “Next…”
“Thank you your majesty,” a human male bowed before her as he took off her hat. “I have been met with a fate most foul. I have offended the most amazing… human… human woman… I had ever seen by complimenting her on her beauty, suggesting she didn’t need to wear those metal nose piercings to show off her stunning radiance, which isn’t as radiant as yours. As a result she left me without the possibility of fathering children with her or any other graceful women I meet.” He ranted. “See she took from me my most valuable possession, no doubt to pleasure herself whenever she felt like.”
“Ugh… humans and their reproductive organs…” The queen complained. “Do you know how many requests I have of men requesting the very same thing? In fact three of those petitioners you got a head of over there also have the same problem. That lady I dismissed had her father turned into a screwdriver. And the old lady you beat to petition me is a nineteen year old man who accidentally got cursed by an amulet. Yet you, someone who offended a witch, thought your problem was bigger than all of theirs?.”
The queen looked out at the rest of the crowd who were angry at him. She smirked as if they had paid even close attention they would’ve known she was playing them all from the start.
“So does this mean I’m getting transformed?” The man asked nervously, yet had he still had his dick he would’ve been aroused.
The Queen sat back in her chair and pondered as she looked at him sternly. “Of course not. You suggested a witch shouldn’t wear piercings, I hate metal… it’s kind of our whole thing.” She changed her tone. “In fact I’ve got the perfect thing just for you.” She then smiled as the man felt a change in his crotch. “That cunt has been begging for a new home for the last one hundred years, he’s so pent up… I even helped him discover his love for dicks… you two are going to be the best of friends…” For the first time in his life the man was speechless; he didn't even thank his new Queen as he was escorted out of the court.
“Well I guess that leaves you,” the Queen pointed to the remaining woman. “I guess you know what option you’re getting…. I really need to work out a better system so it’s more of a surprise. But let me tell you why I decided you’d be getting the horrible transformation…” the Queen flew up over her throne, the rainbow that came down was filled with red hues as the Queen’s eyes turned from green to red. “YOU DARE BRING A TOAD INTO MY THRONE ROOM!” The queen’s rage shook the walls. “THEY ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS CREATURE IN MY REALM!”
“But… but… the witch…” she tried to beg.
“BUT…. BUT… THE WITCH…. Do you think Witches don’t know what I do here? That’s why they turn people like your sniveling boyfriend into a toad in the first place.” She flew back down mocking the poor girl. “You think he’s human but his toad instincts are in control.”
The Queen had settled from her outburst as she grabbed the crying woman by the chin. “I’ll tell you what. If your boyfriend can keep his instincts in check for the next twenty-four hours, I’ll change him back…” The queen said with a wicked smile as she looked at the girl and the rejected petitioners. “Of course you’ll be betting your life on that he’s able to remain in control…”
With a single wave of the hands, all the remaining humans had been turned into insects of different sorts. They were then rounded up by her servants and caged with the transformed toad.
