Eddie awoke to a funny feeling.
He sat up, and noticed his hands were beginning to feel funny.
Suddenly, his hands grew bigger, right before his eyes, slightly bigger than normal size, and then, the fingers and thumbs on his hands were replaced with 5 wriggling octopus-like tentacles, just like his toes had before.
Eddie stared, jaw hanging.
"Wow!" Eddie exclaimed in amazement, finding his voice at last. "I've got tentacles for toes, AND for fingers!"
Eddie found his tentacle fingers were the same as his tentacle toes. Now he had even more tentacles! He could do lots of things at once!
Eddie went back into the water to test his tentacle fingers, and, with a bit of work [mostly doing the same thing he'd done with the tentacle toes], he found he could swim with them even more efficiently.
Suddenly, Eddie began to feel funny.
He felt a tingling in his chest, and in his genitals, and on his legs.
