TF (monster)
An hour ago, he’d been human.
No longer.
Now he was reborn. Reformed. Transformed.
And oh, the power.
He was a true monster now.
He flexed his tentacles, revelling in their muscular strength. Would he ever be satisfied with human arms any more?
(And just how many tentacles did he have now, anyway?)
His new eyes could rotate! How cool was that?
From the moment he’d stumbled across the Goo Labs website, he’d been transfixed by the promise of the monster serum: to change you totally, utterly, into the weird.
Wait until Megan sees me, Tom thought.
And coincidentally, there was her key in the door.
“Tom? You home?”
As Megan entered the room, Tom pulled himself up to his full height, waved his tentacles threateningly, opened his slit of a mouth, and roared.
Megan’s mouth fell open.
She stared.
And …
… giggled???
“Oh my God, Tom! You look soooo cute!”
Okay, not the expected reaction …
Megan looked down at the creature in front of her.
And down.
And down.
“I have to say, you’re … shorter … than I thought,” she said.
Tom sighed and waved a tentacle.
“Yeah, well, I thought I’d be taller too,” he said.
Megan walked in and plopped herself on the sofa, grinning as she watched her boyfriend wriggle towards her.
“So … I’m assuming the monster serums came today,” she said.
“Yup, babe. Sorry, I couldn’t wait to try ‘em out,” Tom said. Tentatively he reached out with a tentacle and stroked Megan’s leg … or as much as he could reach from a height of 12 inches.
“Eh, I totally understand. If I’d been home today, I would have done it too.” Megan gazed at the alien creature. “I can’t get over how cute you are! You look like a teddy bear that’s been crossed with a squid.”
Now, not a lot of people would have labelled that as cute, and that was one reason Tom loved her so.
“So tell me all about the change, Tom. How did it feel?” Megan reached down and stroked the top of Tom’s head.
“Feel? It felt amazing.” Tom wriggled a few tentacles. “I took the serum, and the feeling … it was like … I could feel my body change shape, bones vanish, things inside me twist, but … it didn’t hurt … it was …”
“Yes?” Megan prompted.
“It felt … orgasmic,” Tom muttered.
A laugh. “I’m sure it did!” Megan said. “Hey, can I pick you up?”
“Sure! I trust you.”
“Aw, thanks, honey.” Megan reached down and carefully picked up the creature, placing it on the sofa. Tom slid over and nestled next to her.
Gently Megan stroked Tom’s fur. Tom sighed happily. Somehow, being this small, yet within his girlfriend’s reach, felt wonderfully safe and secure.
Both were startled when a sound like an electric hum filled the air.
“Tom? If I didn’t know better, I’d say you were purring.”
“Heh! So I am! Aw, how can I not purr next to you?”
“I just realised, I don’t think you have a nose.”
“Hmm … yeah, I don’t think I breathe in this form.”
“Wow.”
Tom slithered into Megan’s lap, pulling him up with his tentacles.
“Oooh.” Megan got a strange look on her face. “Those feel … nice.”
“Nice?”
“Yeah. Like a massager. And there’s so many of them!”
“Mmhmm. So you like it when I do … this?”
Tom extended some of his tentacles and began to massage Megan’s sides, before he worked his way up to her shoulders, easily climbing over her body, resting on her breast.
“Do I like it? Is that a trick question? I love it!”
Silence fell over the room.
“Tom?”
“Yes?”
“I have a crazy idea. What if we went to the bedroom and I got naked … because, I mean, you already are … and, well, you could massage my back?”
“Well, that sounds like a great idea! You’ll have to carry me, though.”
“Of course!” As Tom unwound himself, Megan wrapped her hands around him.
“And, babe … just massage your back?” Tom asked.
Somehow he could feel Megan’s temperature change as she blushed.
“Well, we could start there, and … um … see what happens.”
***
“Wow.”
“Oh yeah.”
“That was …”
“I know.”
“Sorry if I jumped, Tom … it was a bit startling.”
“Hey, I didn’t even know I had genitals!”
Giggles.
“Oh that massage was so good … I could fall asleep right now.”
“It’s okay, babe, you can do that.”
“How long till you change back?”
“Um, maybe another hour or so.”
“I don’t want to roll on you and squish you. You’re so cute like this.”
“Ha! Good news. I cannot be harmed while in this form. If you rolled on me, I’d just squish back into shape.”
“Hmmm … okay, good night then.”
And as Megan fell into a peaceful sleep, Tom’s mind flashed with an important fact.
The parcel from Goo Labs hadn’t just included a serum for him. It had one for Megan too.
Heh.
He couldn’t wait to see what creature his darling girl changed into.
