Almost immediately, Johnny's feet lost the toenails, then the pinkie toes, leaving him with 4 nailless toes on his feet.
his toes became longer, first as long as his fingers, then they grew twice the length, then even longer.
suddenly, his feet began to shrink, closely followed by his legs, and then, his arms and hands.
He watched as his arms and legs, already so small, curled and shrank into on themselves. They continued to curl and shrink until they were completely gone, his body ending in a tapered length of flesh.
Johnny wriggled his body across the deck, towards the water, and managed to leap, and dive in, head first.
almost immediately, his hair and beard fell out, he gained gills, and 8 long huge tentacles sprouted from the bottom of where his legs once had been, and his skin turned purple.
"Well i'll be damned!" Johnny said. "I've turned into an octopus!"
Johnny Fishernon was now an octopus.
