Lyra's Monthly Transformation Skit

[humanesqueheartstrings]

[Adjusting the "camera", Lyra grinned into it and nickered.] Experiment day, take two.

After perfecting the hands, I have come to the conclusion that I am now ready for a full body transformation! Bolstered with several devices borrowed from various ponies, and a lava lamp acting as a focus, I am ready. Ahem, here we go.

[Clearing her throat, she started to hover over the lava lamp as she turned down the fire fly lamps.]

Though I know I should be wary,
I still venture someplace scary!
Ghostly hauntings I turn loose!
Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! BEETLEJUICE!

[A powerful wind blew into the rainy evening as it crackled and thundered, but when nothing happened, Lyra pouted and picked up the spell book she had written herself.]

... oh, that was the "Nightmare Night Ghost" spell. All right, lets try this again. Lets see... Disney transformations for dummies. Here we go.

[Horn glowing, a slow ribbon of magic wound around Lyra as she was encased in magic. It was a slow process and the cocoon grew larger and larger! From it, a hand burst free, green in color. Another hand burst free as the body rose into the air and she burst free. The fireflies escaped and a thunderous clap of lightning echoed.]

YES...YESSSSSSSS! I DID IT I DID IT! I...!

[Lyra looked down. Human-like torso, equine features, teats in the wrong place, pony lower half.

She turned herself into a centuar.]

... well... poot. Back to the drawing board. ... at least I have hands.

[And the mint-green centuar began to work on her book again...]

Oh, Lyra... [ She hid her laugh behind a hoof, before trotting over to put a hand on Lyra's (pony) back. ] It was a good effort. You're so close!

[humanesqueheartstrings]

I know Fluttershy but I was SO CLOSE! Look at this! A sort-of human upper half, the lower half pony. It's kind of weird.

[And Lyra grasped her breasts and squeezed.] And what are THESE? My anatomy's in the wrong place. I thought humans were similar in characteristics to ponies.

[Wait, where did you get that idea?]

[kind_to_all]

[ She blinks. ] Where have you been researching about them, anyway? I've never seen them referenced in Twilight's books...

[humanesqueheartstrings]

My mom's a librarian at the Royal Archives. She sends me books on all sorts of creatures.

[kind_to_all]

They sound really fascinating.

[ She grins. ] And you look really cute, too.

[visual] -> [audio]

[millionbitpipes]

[Harvey very quickly shuts off the visual function.]

What in TARTARUS is THAT?

Re: [visual] -> [audio]

[humanesqueheartstrings]

I think it's a centuar, hon. We haven't seen these in Equestria for ages.

[audio]

[millionbitpipes]

I know what a centaur is.

Put some clothes on before you do somethin' like that, geez!

Re: [audio]

[humanesqueheartstrings]

What this? I have modesty fur, you can't see anything. [Totally flashing her front at you Harv but Bon Bon is giving her a t-shirt.]

[Trixie just... facehoofs.]

You have got to be kidding Trixie.

Re: [Visual]

[humanesqueheartstrings]

I tried, and it mostly worked. I need to get the rest of me done though. I studied Alastor so I know what human-esque anatomy is like.

[Visual]

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

Why couldn't you have just stuck to the squink?

Re: [Visual]

[humanesqueheartstrings]

I told you I'm a researcher! I love this sort of thing.

[superstylishsquid]

*How is the mortal with a solidly defined form better at shapeshifting than the demon???*

I wouldn't be too disappointed by that. Managing that much of a change to basic body structure can be pretty difficult.

[humanesqueheartstrings]

[Just luck and years of persistent nature.]

Well, I got half of it down. The other half is legs. Aaaah, legs, I can feel them already.

[superstylishsquid]

If you do manage that, you might want to have a crutch handy. Especially if you manage to get rid of the hooves...suddenly switching to feet on its own can make walking tricky. Going from four legs to two has to be a lot worse.

[humanesqueheartstrings]

Hmm, good point. I'll ask Dr. Saddles if he's got one I can borrow.

Huh I didn't really grow in height did I? I'm still at the same height I was previously. I must have forgotten to carry the two for mass redistribution.

visual

[wizardofharmony]

That is passing impressive.

...Could we compare notes sometime? I miss my native form and would regain it, as would a certain lady of my aquaintance, I'm sure.

Re: visual

[humanesqueheartstrings]

It took ten years of research to do, but lately it's been coming in leaps and bounds. The polymorphic spell requires some fine-tuning though.

And sure, come on over when you got a chance. I'd love to show you my work.

I don't often [Action], but when I do, it's in prose.

[wizardofharmony]

"A moment."

One rush of air and light later - it implodes in Lyra's vision and explodes out in a burst of air like a spring breeze next to her - Lucia appears before you, and bows. With her is a staff and grimoire.

"Apologies for inviting myself over, but it seems we both have the time," she says.

all good

[humanesqueheartstrings]

"Not a problem," replied the miniature centuar as she gestured her over towards the books. "Here's my research, I've built it up over the years. Take your time with it!"

[forwhomthebelltolls]

Ho! Dot's not too bad.

Re: [visual]

[humanesqueheartstrings]

I know right? I patterned it off the studies on centaurs that are in this land somewhere.

[visual]

[forwhomthebelltolls]

Hy dun tink hy haff seen those studies, yet. But iz interestink to know all de same.

Re: [visual]

[humanesqueheartstrings]

I'd be happy to share my findings on the polymorphic spell if you want?
