Your eyes almost glaze over as you scroll through the monumentally massive menu, finding that the program seemed to have every organism known to man. And possibly some that weren't as well, as quite a few of the taxons seeming strange and incomprehensible to you. A few are a bit easier to wrap your head around, though just as unlikely, scrolling past various creatures of legend. With so many options you feel overwhelmed, unable to even begin to fathom a choice. Part of you did wonder why you cared so much, really. The machine seemed to just be a distraction. Still, you did kind of want to see it through.
At the moment one in particular manages to catch your eye: Chiroptera. Bats. You pause for a moment before you find yourself grinning slightly. That'd be a perfect choice. Something a bit more uncommon, and certainly exotic. It also helps that Halloween was only a few days away, giving the option a very distinct appeal. With a click you set them as your selection, causing a few more options and text boxes to appear. A new menu pops up, this one listing various species for you to choose. From Vampire Bats to Microbats to Fruit Bats to Flying Foxes, all of them seemed to be represented. Mousing over each once again brings up a wealth of information, stuff like their wingspan, usual range, mating habits and diet, way too much information to shift through currently, and you find it incredibly difficult to find the desire to even make an attempt. Thankfully, it seems that you can set the variant to random, something you do without hesitation.
You give all of it a final look over your selection. The display continued to warn you that it was set to permanent, and that if you went through with your selection that it would be irreversible. You chuckle a little. You thought that the idea of such a fate was a suitably horrific way to celebrate. You'd always get to fly for free, too! You acknowledge the warning, the bold text disappearing and revealing the confirmation button, which you happily press. A loading disc appears which spins a few times before the whole screen is replaced by a single line of text:
THANK YOU, AND ENJOY YOUR NEW LIFE!
You smile and walk away, still a bit perplexed, but certainly amused by the display. Now that it was over with, however, you had to get back to more important matters. It's a bit of a shame though, you think. At least if it worked you wouldn't have to pay for a costume!
