The portal turns you into a blue jay,

but you're still testing it out:
putting in an arm
to see your patterned wing;
or a leg, wiggling talons;
looking in the mirror,
dipping your head in,
eyes, beak, all the senses,
it's so intense--

And today,
watching, daydreaming;
is it time? 💙

the celestial lynx spirit
picks you up by the scruff
you didn't know you had,
sets you down among the stars
as a creature constellation,
paws unsteady but learning,
seeing, feeling, sensing,
dancing across the sky,
so many new friends to see,
both above and below~ ✨

I sit, pull down my hood.
I'm a hyena, but you know that.
We talk, as your fur grows in;
hyena fur, nice and fluffy,
big ears, a slinky tail.
Everyone I speak to becomes a hyena,
spotty, stripy, brown, or aardwolf,
but that's why I'm here,
so we can have a chat,
and you can be a hyena. ✨

"Hmm. What were we working on again?"

"As best I can tell, this is a spell that sends you into a parallel world where everyone's a skunk."

"But why bother with that spell, if everyone's already skunks?"

"I guess it worked." ❤️

More giant skunk snuggles today?
Can't fault being warm and cosy.
You know, if you keep doing those,
I think you'll get stuck as a skunk,
you've still got fur from last time,
but, fine by me if it's fine by you,
you can hug your nice fluffy tail
and I'll hug a cute fluffy skunk~

See this, it's a large wind-up key,
skunk tail design, spotted, striped,
and it fits perfectly,
doesn't it, skunk toy?

Turning, click-click, changing;
skunk form, skunk patterns,
warm hide, shaped and sculpted,
until, let go, just a gentle ticking,
tail bouncing, ears twitching~

On the one hand,
you're a snow leopard,
you don't know why or how
which feels a bit unsatisfying,
but you're warm and fluffy,
even balanced on two paws
before you're (back?) on fours,
and it seems cosy and familiar;

but, on the other paw,
you're a snow leopard.
mow. prrr. yay. 💜💜

Poof! Skunk in a cute hat. 🦨

First you paint on a stripe, and then the tail just keeps on growing~~

It does say skunk on the collar :3 ✨

Skunk, weed, predictable side effects 💚

Oh, um, clicking my fingers was only meant to make you *think* you were a skunk, but this works too 🌀

"What's happening?"
asks the social media app;
well, today I transformed into a skunk.

So I was just wandering along
and I start growing these paws,
twitchy ears and muzzle, fluffy fur,
sudden tail, so much for clothes;
maybe I should be concerned,
but I think it's pretty cool~ <3 🦨

Why so many skunks in VR?
Because of this one skunk avatar,
yeah, you can try it on, but wait,
it's a little glitch someone found
where if you do this and that
you get stuck inside the world-

Oh, yeah. just like that!
Feels so good though, doesn't it?
Hope you like it~ ❤️🦨

Hey there. You've slipped into another world, one where you're a skunk. (It happens now and then.)

You might go on a quest to return home... but you could also stay here, we can always do with an extra set of paws.

Either way, rest a while, get used to being you first. 💚

Petting your head
and rubbing your belly
and fussing, encouraging,
good puppy, puppy puppy,
until it becomes true;
waggy tail, flicky ears,
nose and paws and fuzz,
bark bark, waf, rrrr,
who's a good puppy,
who's a good puppy,
it's you!~ 🐕💛

so, I know I said it was relaxing to get away from it all, and thanks for arranging all this

but, um, we seem to be staying with the fae, and we're turning into badgers

probably should leave a review before I'm stuck trying to use my phone with paws 🦡
