I stared at my reflection. I had been a fairly normal guy before; a little podgy from too much time playing computer games and not enough playing sports, but not outright fat, and while I hadn’t been ugly, I wasn’t a looker either. What stared back from the mirror though…
I now had a thin, lithe body with not even the merest hint of fat, and a slightly feminine curve to the hips. My face was now down right pretty, with thin lips and sparkling purple eyes. My hair was now shoulder length an pastel purple in colour.
What was even more striking however, were the other alterations to my body. I had four iridescent insectoid wings, and from my fringe sprouted a pair of insect like antennae. My eyes drifted down to my legs; instead of feet, my shins tapered into blade like points which looked like delicate scalpel blades but were sturdy enough to hold my weight (although there probably wasn’t much of that to be fair). That’s when my gaze moved to my crotch.
Like the rest of my body it was bereft of body hair and the skin was pale and smooth. Smooth being the operative word - I no longer had a cock and balls! My hand brushed the flat area between my legs gently, and I felt a thin slit there, like a cut from a sharp knife. Nervously I probed it with my fingers, gently parting flesh to feel what lay beneath. A cough reminded me of where I was and I covered my crotch with both hands, turning bright red.
I looked up at the doctor who was watching impassively, save for a raised eyebrow, and the nurse who was stifling a giggle. Scribbling more notes the doctor repeated “You’re a herm fairy now.”
“A what?” I asked, confused.
The Doctor sighed and said “You’re a type of fairy which is a hermaphrodite. I take it you’re unfamiliar with the species?”
I nodded. “I thought fairies were all like Tinkerbell to be honest.”
He pinched the bridge of his nose and said “Some are, yes, but that’s just one of several species. I guess I’m going to have to give you a quick primer on your new body.” Pulling up a chair, he sat and produced a computer tablet. “The species you are possesses both male and female reproductive organs.” He pulled up a diagram on the tablet. “Your genitals are contained within your body until needed. As you possess both sets of reproductive organs it is possible for you to both father and mother a child. I should probably take this time to point out your species is highly fertile and you can get impregnated via both oral and anal sex in addition to vaginal sex. You also are able to be impregnated by almost any other race, not just other fairies, so be careful.”
I stared at him in shock, barely able to process what he was telling me. “I-I can get pregnant?” I asked, slack jawed.
He nodded, then reconsidered. “Sort of; you will lay eggs once they’ve been fertilised, but there is some gestation period. If you’d rather not have kids at this point I can prescribe you birth control, but we can discuss that later.” He tapped his tablet turning it to a new page. “Moving on; you now have a much smaller size and mass than you had before, but you should have strength that’s about the same; whatever you could lift before you should still be able to now. You also have increased durability and rapid healing.” He paged again “Your wings are functional, not decorative, and you’ll probably find flying more natural than walking now.”
I sat down, holding my head. “Why are you telling me all this? Can’t you turn me back into a human?”
They shared a look again, grimacing. “I’m sorry,” sighed the Doctor “But you’ve been cursed with an unbreakable curse. From now on this is you.” He reached out and patted my shoulder with one finger “We can’t undo the curse; all we can do is make this transition as easy as possible for you.”
