Dylan decided to rummage through the pile and use whatever he pulled out. Upon feeling something hairy tickling his palm, he grabbed and pulled out a black and white striped rope with a black furred tassel hanging about 3 in a half feet long. "Zebra it is." Dylan was trying to figure out a way to make the tail work, but there wasn't a belt, or even a clip to use. He looked at the box again. "Wild costumes" was definitely there, but the costume part had yet to show.
After a few minutes of looking, Dylan decided he would try to pin it on to his belt loop. Before he went looking, he held the tail against his backside to see how it would look. "So right about here. Sounds like a-" Dylan was cut off as the tail started moving by itself, flailing everywhere in his hands. "Woah! What the hell!?" Dylan tried calming it down, only to see it slingshot to his exposed back. "What the!? Where's it- GAH!" Dylan felt the tail slip down under his pants. Slowly after, he felt a spring in his backside, as if something had extended his spinal cord.
Dylan looked as he saw the tail had hung out from under his pants. He didn't want to believe what happened, but it was clearly obvious. He pulled his pants down slightly to reveal a slim striped tail attached to his flesh. "This... This is unreal..." Dylan tried to feel at the base, and in response, the tail flicked out. He could feel every nerve as it flicked. He felt it all the way down fr the base to the tip that the tail was definitely his.
Dylan was at a loss of words. After a few minutes of getting over his shock, his tail started wagging as if it were a dogs. "Heh... This feels kinda nice." He said smiling, stroking his tail. Another minute passed while Dylan felt his tail still trying to get used to the new nerves that came with it, as he noticed a slip of paper in the pile of tails. Dylan bent down, his tail still wagging, picked up the slip to read it. "For any assistance you may need for your new purchase, please refer to this help guide." Dylan opened the guide to see if there is a way to remove his tail should he need to. He found a section for part removal, and turned to the page. "If you have attached any part to your body, there is no way to remove it. However, you may reced it back in your body to your normal human appearance. Confine your mind to your human state in order to do this. If you want to revert back to the part you attached, the same works in that regard. Note: for any fears friends and relatives see you, the magic in these items shift anybody's memories so there's no conflict or confusion."
"So this really is magic." Dylan had tried to think of himself as a tailless human. He could feel the tail slowly reside into his spine. Once again, Dylan was complete human. He thought about his tail again, and felt his spine push out again revealing his striped tail. "That is cool! I'm like some superhero or something!" Dylan laughed. After getting used to his new ability, Dylan had fully adapted to his tail's movements.
Dylan was excited that he had found a real magical item. His mind raced with ideas for what he would do next...
