Morphology
|
||
by Ace Lightning
|
||
|
||
"She changes everything She touches, and everything She touches changes..."
|
||
"Change is...touch is...touch is... change is...
|
||
Change us! Touch us! Touch us! Change us!"
|
||
"We are the changers; everything we touch can change..."
|
||
- contrapuntal lines of a popular Neo-Pagan chant.
|
||
|
||
|
||
The envelope from Australia contained a six-page letter and an airline
|
||
ticket. The letter began, "Someone actually BOUGHT some of my stories. If
|
||
I'm not careful, I'll become a Famous Author. Anyway, I paid for your
|
||
ticket with some of my ill-gotten gains." Ace knew better than to dispute
|
||
her good fortune; and besides, she'd been wanting to visit Arifel for
|
||
*years*.
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
She trudged through the arrivals gate at the airport in Melbourne,
|
||
scanning the crowd for only an instant before spotting the faintly
|
||
disreputable-looking character in black jeans and a Skinny Puppy T-shirt.
|
||
He saw her at the same moment; an overweight middle-aged woman in a
|
||
brilliant purple tunic outfit, metallic-purple toenail polish gleaming on
|
||
her sandalled feet. They dashed towards each other and collided in a
|
||
vigorous welcoming hug. They chattered and laughed all through the process
|
||
of collecting baggage, finding a taxi, and giving directions to Arifel's
|
||
place. By the time they got there, they were finishing each other's
|
||
sentences.
|
||
|
||
They might have talked all night, not stopping even during dinner, but
|
||
Ace's internal clock had been utterly disrupted by the long flight and the
|
||
16-hour time differential. Arifel teased her gently about yawning in the
|
||
middle of nearly every word. "Er, you take the bed, of course. I'll just go
|
||
arrange the sofa cushions in the bathtub... it's quite comfortable,
|
||
really..."
|
||
|
||
"Don't be silly. You know I'll sleep in your bed, with you. And all I
|
||
want to do right now is *sleep*. My body doesn't know whether it's bedtime
|
||
or the middle of next week!" Without a trace of self-consciousness, she
|
||
stripped off her clothes and slipped into bed.
|
||
|
||
Arifel was unsure about how to respond. The sight of Ace's naked body -
|
||
sagging neck, drooping breasts, midriff roll, pouched belly, fleshy thighs
|
||
and upper arms, flabby buttocks - was far from arousing. But they'd been
|
||
friends, and more than friends, for a long time, with a deeply felt mutual
|
||
affection. Finally, with a mental shrug, he undressed and got ready for
|
||
bed. When he slid in beside Ace, she was already asleep.
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
It might have been daylight outside when Ace awoke, but the thick black
|
||
curtains kept the room gothically dark. She got out of bed as quietly as
|
||
possible and headed for the toilet. When she was done, she tried to get
|
||
back into bed quietly, so as not to wake Arifel.
|
||
|
||
"Don't worry; I'm awake."
|
||
|
||
"Sorry. We can go back to sleep. I just had to pee."
|
||
|
||
"It's okay. I'm awake now anyway. Want some breakfast?"
|
||
|
||
"I'm not hungry yet." Under the covers, she took his hand. "It's just so
|
||
*wonderful* being here with you! I haven't even properly thanked you for
|
||
sending me the plane ticket." She gave him an enthusiastic kiss, and they
|
||
slid together into a friendly, full-out hug.
|
||
|
||
They were both naked, and Arifel had just woken up; his morning erection
|
||
bumped against her thigh, and he said "Oops..."
|
||
|
||
"We *could* do something about that, you know..." she said, looking him
|
||
straight in the eye. The unvoiced question hung in the air between them for
|
||
a long moment. Then he pulled her closer to him and kissed her, gently but
|
||
with intense passion; by way of answer, she opened her mouth and began
|
||
questing softly with her tongue.
|
||
|
||
Considering all the cybersexual adventures they'd shared, their actual
|
||
lovemaking was hesitant at first. She badly wanted to stroke his penis, but
|
||
confined herself to tweaking his nipples lightly. He gasped, and she felt
|
||
his erection twitch and harden against her leg. In turn, he caressed her
|
||
time-ravaged body with unbearable gentleness. He marveled at her
|
||
responsiveness; her nipples had stiffened at his merest touch, and when he
|
||
nibbled one lightly she trembled and began to writhe. He reached down to
|
||
finger her clitoris; she whimpered faintly, thrusting herself against his
|
||
hand, and ran her fingernail along the underside of his penis from base to
|
||
tip. Then their hands and mouths were all over each other, stimulating and
|
||
titillating every erogenous zone. Ace wondered dimly how his fingers seemed
|
||
to be teasing both nipples *and* her clitoris at the same time; but she was
|
||
too aroused to think very clearly. When he kissed the tiny "signature"
|
||
tattoo between her breasts, she moaned and opened her legs, arching her
|
||
pelvis against him to receive his thrusting, throbbing penis inside her. A
|
||
few minutes of the ancient dance, and they reached orgasm simultaneously,
|
||
which surprised them both.
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
They lay in each other's arms for a while, enjoying the afterglow, until
|
||
Arifel's left arm grew numb. He shifted position, and she looked
|
||
questioningly at him. He seemed to want to say something, but not know
|
||
quite how to begin. Finally he spoke.
|
||
|
||
"Ace... you know those metamorph stories of mine? Well, they're true,
|
||
sort of..."
|
||
|
||
"What do you mean, 'sort of'?"
|
||
|
||
"Well, I really can change my body's shape to a limited degree. I can't
|
||
negate gravity, or excrete weapons-grade plutonium, but I *can* change the
|
||
basic form of my body. I, er, grew myself some extra fingers just now..."
|
||
|
||
"I noticed. I didn't know *how* you were doing it, but it felt so good I
|
||
wasn't going to ask questions!"
|
||
|
||
"Tricks like that. Fairly simple shape-shifting. I'm afraid that the
|
||
stories aren't completely true about being able to make one other person a
|
||
metamorph. I can't make you a metamorph. I'm still sort of a beginner
|
||
myself. Maybe when my powers are more mature, I can change someone
|
||
permanently. What I *can* do, though, is sort of 'loan' you the ability
|
||
temporarily. It'll hurt like hell for a few hours, and then you'll be able
|
||
to change just like a full metamorph for about a day and a half. Then it'll
|
||
hurt some more when the ability goes away. If it's any consolation, it'll
|
||
hurt me too when I give it to you, although not nearly as much. Would you
|
||
want to try it?" he asked almost shyly.
|
||
|
||
"Wau. Yes, I think I *do* want to try it. How many times can I be a
|
||
temporary metamorph?"
|
||
|
||
"Just one. As far as I know, everyone who's tried it twice has died in
|
||
horrible agony. The human body just can't take the overload. I *think* you
|
||
would survive if you were permanently transformed... but I can't do that
|
||
for you."
|
||
|
||
"I'll take the temporary conversion, definitely. Breakfast first,
|
||
though. Am I right in assuming it takes a fair amount of fuel for our
|
||
bodies to do this?"
|
||
|
||
"You're right. Breakfast first."
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
After an enormous meal, Arifel explained a bit more of the metamorph
|
||
process to Ace. He showed her some of what he could do. He made his hair
|
||
waist-length and bright purple; he grew a third eye in the middle of his
|
||
forehead, then playfully transformed it into a miniature penis. "I'm not
|
||
going to do a full-body transformation right now, though, because that
|
||
takes a fair bit of energy, and I want to have that energy available for
|
||
triggering your temporary change."
|
||
|
||
"Just exactly how will that work?"
|
||
|
||
"It's awkward to explain in words, but it's like magick, in a way. I
|
||
make physical contact with you," - they both smiled at that - "and I just
|
||
*will* your body to become changeable. It's an energy drain on me, and I
|
||
feel an echo of the pain of my own, um, 'metamorphosis'. But you, my dear,
|
||
will feel almost as much pain as in a complete transformation. The only
|
||
consolation is that it only lasts a few hours, instead of days."
|
||
|
||
"I'm ready. We might as well do it now. Would it help if I put myself in
|
||
trance first?"
|
||
|
||
"Hmmm, I never thought of that. Yes. It might just make it easier for me
|
||
to trigger the process in you."
|
||
|
||
They clasped hands. Ace closed her eyes, and her lips moved slightly.
|
||
Arifel knew she was repeating some sort of hypnotic mantra. Her body
|
||
relaxed subtly, and when she finally spoke, her voice seemed to be coming
|
||
from very far away.
|
||
|
||
"Now..."
|
||
|
||
Still holding Ace's hands in his own, Arifel leaned toward her and once
|
||
again kissed the tattoo over her heart. As he did so, he concentrated all
|
||
his will into giving her the ability to shape-shift. Her trance state did
|
||
seem to make the process easier, but his breathing grew ragged and a fine
|
||
sweat broke out on his face as he poured all his energy into her. He knew
|
||
he had succeeded when he felt the familiar burning sensation beginning on
|
||
the deepest cellular level. He sat back and let go of her hands, and let
|
||
the painful ecstasy take him...
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
Deep in trance, Ace felt the energy Arifel was sending into her as a
|
||
tingling sensation, almost like a mild electrical shock. This merged with a
|
||
strange burning, as if each individual cell in her body were responding
|
||
simultaneously to cold and heat. At first it was almost pleasurable,
|
||
especially with the unmistakable "feel" of Arifel's mind behind it. But
|
||
then his presence dropped out, and the burning and tingling intensified
|
||
rapidly. It soon grew so painful that she snapped out of trance, into a
|
||
hyper-aware state composed entirely of bone-deep pain. She could feel
|
||
herself breaking out in a sweat, and each individual droplet burned like
|
||
acid. The stink of her own sweat was the foulest stench imaginable. Her
|
||
eyes were open, and even in the dimness of the black-curtained room, all
|
||
colors were too bright. The sound of her own labored breathing was an
|
||
intolerable din. She wanted to scream, but she found that her body was
|
||
unable to move or respond. She could only lie there, helpless and in pain,
|
||
while her cells strove to adapt themselves to alien functions. Dimly she
|
||
remembered the time she'd tried to trip on baby woodrose seeds without
|
||
burning off the strychnine-containing seed coat. This was several orders of
|
||
magnitude worse.
|
||
|
||
Time passed. Her bones were red-hot metal, her skin was bathed in liquid
|
||
nitrogen. Sounds and colors and textures and smells assaulted her, until a
|
||
kind of synesthesia of pain set in, and she heard pressure and tasted
|
||
light... and ALL of it was unbearable. In the tiny corner of her mind that
|
||
always remained rational, she wondered how much worse it had been for
|
||
Arifel, becoming a full metamorph.
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
Arifel felt his pain ebbing; each time he gave someone temporary
|
||
metamorph powers, his own agony seemed to get shorter and shorter. He felt
|
||
that he'd actually miss it if it ever completely stopped being painful. He
|
||
blinked and stretched, and looked at Ace lying rigid and semi-conscious
|
||
before him. She still had hours of torment to go, and she needed what
|
||
little help he could give her.
|
||
|
||
He got some ice water, and carefully moistened her feverish lips with
|
||
it. He spoke to her, in the softest of whispers, knowing that even his
|
||
attempts to relieve her pain would be painful.
|
||
|
||
"I'm sorry. It's not like in the stories. I can't take away some of the
|
||
pain by touching you. The only consolation is that it'll be all over in a
|
||
few hours."
|
||
|
||
The ice water scalded her lips. His words were a cacophony that
|
||
assaulted her ears, but carried no meaning. Her brain was a pitifully
|
||
fragile meat-thing, sizzling and shriveling in a pool of glowing magma...
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
Something had changed. She didn't hurt any more! Although her senses
|
||
were still heightened, Ace found that the stimuli were merely intense, not
|
||
agonizing. Arifel's arm was behind her shoulders, helping her sit up, while
|
||
he held a glass of cool water to her mouth. She drank gratefully, savoring
|
||
the feeling of the refreshing liquid as she swallowed it.
|
||
|
||
::Take it easy, Ace. You're all right now. You're a metamorph... at
|
||
least for a while.::
|
||
|
||
::Wau. Hey, I actually feel *good!* Now how do I.... ARIFEL! I'VE GOT MY
|
||
TELEPATHY BACK!::
|
||
|
||
::Yes. That's one of the things in the stories that *is* true.::
|
||
|
||
::Do you think it'll stay when I change back?::
|
||
|
||
::I don't know. This is the first time I've ever changed someone with
|
||
your particular history. People who weren't telepaths to begin with don't
|
||
keep the ability when they change back. But we'll just have to see what
|
||
happens.::
|
||
|
||
::Wau again. Um, now, how do I do it? Just think about it?::
|
||
|
||
::Basically, yes. But let me show you how it's done. I can spare the
|
||
energy now for full transformations.::
|
||
|
||
His features began rearranging themselves, bones shifting beneath the
|
||
skin, shapes twisting and sliding. It was almost nauseating to watch, but
|
||
at the same time weirdly fascinating. The transformation was quick. The
|
||
figure before her had waxy, corpse-pale skin, divided into precise squares
|
||
by many bloodless straight-line cuts. At each intersection of the lines, a
|
||
metal spike protruded. ::The ultimate Pinhead mask...:: Arifel thought.
|
||
|
||
::Impressive. I know that's one of your favorites. But can you change
|
||
into something a little less ...intimidating?::
|
||
|
||
::Your wish is my command, my dear...:: Again that shifting and
|
||
twisting. Her friend now wore the semblance of a barely pubescent girl of
|
||
about fourteen, with short, pale-blonde hair and too much eye makeup; she
|
||
looked like a cross between a goth, a punk, and an early-60's "mod". Even
|
||
the mental "voice" had changed. With a delighted cry of recognition, Ace
|
||
spoke aloud. "DAVA!"
|
||
|
||
::In the flesh, so to speak.::
|
||
|
||
::I never thought about how convenient it would be for someone with
|
||
multiple personalities to be a metamorph. Now each of you can have your
|
||
proper body! Dava, love, you look *exactly* the way I thought you would!"
|
||
|
||
Dava's black tank top and leather jeans went away. ::D'you like what you
|
||
see, then?::
|
||
|
||
::Um, actually, well, yes...::
|
||
|
||
Dava leaned over and gave Ace a wet, sloppy kiss, with plenty of tongue.
|
||
If she expected to shock the older woman, though, she was disappointed. Ace
|
||
returned the kiss with enthusiasm, then bent her head to suck the girl's
|
||
petite pink nipples. Dava's fingers (nails painted iridescent black and
|
||
severely bitten) went to Ace's crotch, causing her to squirm closer and
|
||
plunge her own fingers into Dava's pale-furred slit. Their bodies tangled
|
||
and writhed on the bed, and Dava nibbled aggressively at Ace's breasts.
|
||
Somehow the sinuous young girl maneuvered herself into a "69" position
|
||
relative to Ace, and they found themselves eagerly tonguing each other's
|
||
genitalia.
|
||
|
||
::It's been a *long* time since I made love to a woman,:: Ace
|
||
apologized.
|
||
|
||
::You're - ooh! - doing okay so - mmmmnh - far!::
|
||
|
||
::You're not too - uuuuhhh - bad yourself...::
|
||
|
||
Dava plunged her tongue deep inside Ace, using it like a prehensile
|
||
phallus, and Ace lost her own rhythm on Dava's clitoris as she suddenly
|
||
came. It took a few moments for her to regain enough composure to finish
|
||
the younger woman off the same way.
|
||
|
||
::Sorry; I told you I was out of practice.::
|
||
|
||
::Not to worry.:: came Arifel's mental "voice", and with another vision-
|
||
twisting shift, the body beside her on the bed became male again. ::But YOU
|
||
haven't morphed at all yet.::
|
||
|
||
::I've been busy...:: she giggled. She concentrated hard on her new
|
||
bodily awareness, and began to transform herself. At first the process kept
|
||
getting away from her, and one feature would drift back to its original
|
||
form when she paid attention to another. But soon she got the hang of it,
|
||
and smoothly changed her body to an idealized version of her self-image.
|
||
The new body was younger-looking, slimmer, taller, and had longer hair, but
|
||
was still recognizable as Ace.
|
||
|
||
::Very good, for a first effort.:: said Arifel. ::But you ought to try a
|
||
few other forms too.::
|
||
|
||
::Won't I lose the ability sooner if I use it a lot?:: she asked.
|
||
|
||
::No; actually, the more you morph, the *longer* you keep the ability.
|
||
But when you do change back, the process will be more painful.::
|
||
|
||
She shuddered, thinking of the agony she'd just endured. ::But I think
|
||
it's worth it, if I can keep these powers a bit longer.:: She concentrated
|
||
again, and became a reasonable simulacrum of Madonna. When Arifel smiled at
|
||
this, she exaggerated the resemblance, caricaturing the pop star's pointed
|
||
breast-cups and bleached-blonde hair. A sudden inspiration struck her, and
|
||
she continued the transformation through Jean Harlowe, Jayne Mansfield, and
|
||
Marilyn Monroe. As Arifel began to laugh, she ended the sequence with
|
||
RuPaul, cracking him up completely.
|
||
|
||
::Whew! That's hard work!:: she commented.
|
||
|
||
::It gets easier with practice. Now try something less familiar, like a
|
||
male form. RuPaul doesn't count.::
|
||
|
||
::Okay. But this is going to take a bit more imagination.:: Slowly, and
|
||
with a number of "erasures" and false starts, she transformed her body into
|
||
a remarkably handsome young man. "He" was slim, but well-muscled, with
|
||
light brown hair, amber eyes, and a sweetly curved butt. The genitals were
|
||
the last part to transform, but when they were done, "he" was remarkably
|
||
well hung. The mental voice remained unchanged, though - female, and
|
||
unmistakably Ace's.
|
||
|
||
Arifel stared appreciatively at the young "man's" impressive equipment.
|
||
Ace caught the stare, and enlarged the penis to half a meter long. As
|
||
Arifel's eyes widened, she made it tie itself in a knot. They both giggled,
|
||
and she reduced it to proportions nearer the average human male's.
|
||
|
||
::I always wondered what it felt like to have a cock...:: she thought.
|
||
::'Fascinating':: ...and she added the suggestion of tilted eyebrows and
|
||
pointed ears.
|
||
|
||
Arifel's response was to kneel in front of this young Vulcanoid Adonis
|
||
and take the head of the penis into his mouth. The fact that the
|
||
personality radiating from the figure was still that of a middle-aged woman
|
||
didn't seem to bother him. He squeezed the testicles gently, while pressing
|
||
hard on the spot behind them.
|
||
|
||
::Wau. So that's what it feels like. No wonder men like blowjobs so
|
||
much!::
|
||
|
||
::You like this, hm?:: he said, running his tongue around the tip. Ace's
|
||
male body shivered, and "his" erection swelled and grew more taut with
|
||
every flick of Arifel's tongue. Suddenly Arifel drew away, leaving Ace
|
||
aching with lust. ::I think you'll like this too...::
|
||
|
||
Arifel quickly morphed into a copy of Ace's idealized female body. ::Now
|
||
you *can* fuck yourself!:: Ace's mind was totally blown. She was in a
|
||
beautiful masculine body, extremely aroused, making love to what looked
|
||
like her own body, now inhabited by her dear friend Arifel. She quickly
|
||
brought the female body to a matching state of arousal, and entered "her"
|
||
deeply. All coherent thought fled in a state of complete gender and
|
||
identity confusion. Arifel's female body, with her own responses, reached
|
||
orgasm in a few moments; the internal muscular spasms triggered the
|
||
beginnings of her male body's own orgasm. But as "he" began to ejaculate -
|
||
another new experience for Ace! - the orifice surrounding it turned into a
|
||
rectum, as Arifel resumed his normal bodily form. When the final spasms
|
||
subsided, she reverted to her own form as well. They lay in each other's
|
||
arms, as Ace tried to sort out the bewildering series of sexual experiences
|
||
she'd just been through.
|
||
|
||
::Sshh. Everything's okay. Was that a little too much for you?::
|
||
|
||
::Not really... I just never thought about some of these things before.
|
||
Oh, I thought about them in an abstract way, I suppose, but I never thought
|
||
I'd *experience* them personally. Thank you!::
|
||
|
||
They simply cuddled for a while, without verbal or mental speech,
|
||
content just to be together. Then Arifel sent, ::You know, this *does* take
|
||
a lot of fuel. I think we'd better get something to eat again soon.::
|
||
|
||
::I think you're right. All this morphing is depleting my energy. And
|
||
we've been fucking like bunnyrabbits as well. Speaking of which...::
|
||
|
||
Morphing was getting easier and easier. It took relatively little effort
|
||
for her to assume the form of a sleek grey rabbit, long ears, wiggly nose,
|
||
fluffy tail, and all. Not a humanoid rabbit like "Harvey" in the old Jimmy
|
||
Stewart movie; simply a pretty grey bunny the size of a human being. ::Hey,
|
||
now I can wiggle my nose!::
|
||
|
||
As they laughed, she returned to her preferred human form.
|
||
|

||
They passed the entire afternoon and night, and all of the next day,
|
||
morphing into various forms, occasionally finding new sexual permutations
|
||
in the process. Ace learned how to transform herself into everything from
|
||
graceful winged things to furniture. Arifel was patient with her,
|
||
encouraging her to try the most improbable shapes, and showing her some of
|
||
his own more exotic variations. In the constant semi-darkness, they lost
|
||
track of the passage of time.
|
||
|
||
Ace was attempting to assume the form of a miniature Lear Jet when she
|
||
realized it wasn't working. Her body reverted to its everyday form,
|
||
complete with cellulite and wrinkles. Then the deep icy burn began to
|
||
attack from within. ::Uh-oh...::
|
||
|
||
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
|
||
|
||
It really was worse this time. She was being electrocuted, frozen to
|
||
death, flayed, and drowned in boiling acid. There was not even enough
|
||
consciousness left for synesthesia; only relentless pain. Arifel felt no
|
||
pain himself this time. He sat beside her, knowing better than to touch her
|
||
or make any sound, but also knowing that his presence was a comfort to her.
|
||
::It'll be over soon, dear Ace. I hope it was worth it for you.::
|
||
|
||
Time passed. She was being compressed, constricted, boiled down to a
|
||
mere fraction of herself. Her mind was being forced back into its cramped
|
||
box of bone. All senses were being reduced to one, and that sense was pain.
|
||
She longed for the power to weep, but once more her body refused to
|
||
respond.
|
||
|
||
Eventually it was over. Arifel was helping her sit up, comforting her.
|
||
He held a mug of tea to her lips this time; somehow the warm, fragrant
|
||
steam helped her ground herself in the here-and-now.
|
||
|
||
"Arifel?"
|
||
|
||
"I'm here. You're fine; just take it easy for a bit."
|
||
|
||
::Arifel?::
|
||
|
||
::Arifel...??::
|
||
|
||
Nothing.
|
||
|
||
She collapsed against him, sobbing....
|
||
|
||

||
|
||

|
||
AUTHOR'S NOTE: This was written as a conscious attempt to fit a story of
|
||
my own into Arifel's science-fiction universe, in direct response to the
|
||
"Metamorph" story recently serialized as several TANJ files. There is a
|
||
joyous irony in it, however: not long after I wrote it, Arifel actually
|
||
DID (to his own great surprise) help me get my telepathy back!
