Curious to see what, if anything, would happen, Roy next pointed the little device at the laptop computer sitting on his desk... and pressed the button.
The only noticeable effect Roy immediately saw was that his laptop was suddenly covered in stickers, all of them advertising the logos of various goth bands he'd never heard of. As he peered closer, he noticed the wallpaper on his computer screen had been changed to a big, closeup photo of the goth girl from outside, still looking all pouty and brooding.
Roy then ran back to the window and peered out into the parking lot. The goth girl was still out there walking along... but seemed different somehow. Roy squinted trying to get a closer look. She was dressed the same, but was moving more slowly and seemed somehow rigid. Then it dawned on Roy – she was now a robot of some kind! Her skin was no longer flesh but some dull, flesh-painted metal. Her stiff, jerky movements were clearly mechanical in nature.
“This is so weird,” said Roy.
