Mary's heart fluttered as she set the box of vials on her coffee table and opened the box. There was a large assortment of options inside.
Mary wasn't entirely in to this kind of thing, but she had agreed to do it for her boyfriend. Besides, she was open to new experiences. At the top of the box was a row labeled "experiences" She pulled one out at random that was labeled "Slow Burn". There was a flyer wrapped into the slot. She opened it and it was labelled "Instructions".
"Extend your experience!
The slow burn vial will spread out the effects of your transformation throughout the next ten hours! Simply drink the slow burn vial first and then pick your animal vial.
CAUTION! Effects of the vials reverse by themselves after 24 hours normally but the slow burn vial can take up to 48. Be sure to plan accordingly."
"Hmm, maybe taking it slow would help me relax." Mary thought of it like dipping her feet in a cold pool instead of jumping right in.
She waited for her boyfriend, Xander, to get home from work and join her. They had the whole weekend to themselves so the 48 hours shouldn't be a problem. But did she really want to be an animal for a whole 48 hours? At least she would have Xander with her, she knew he was excited about this.
She left the slow burn vial out on the table and pulled out his favorite animal.
