You and Skylar had been sitting and watching a TV series on a Streaming Service, not really paying much attention to it. You mostly spent it talking to each other.
“Why don’t we both become adults?” Skylar asked randomly,
“Huh?” You said, taking a moment to absorb the question, “oh right… I guess we could, but why?”
“What do you mean ‘why’?” She said blankly, “being teenagers is just a little boring, think about how much we could do as adults,”
“Sky, we’re pretty much adults in the first place,” you reply, “I mean, if you want to, but I feel like it’ll be a little pointless,”
“No! I mean like adults, like twenty-one or something, maybe older,” she says,
“Oh, I thought you meant… yeah that makes more sense,” you reply, “I guess we could become twenty-one for a while,”
“Sure!” She says, “it’ll be fun, trust me!”
You thought for a moment, but eventually you just had to agree with her, “alright. Why not,” you say. You stand up off of the bed, “you ready?”
“Always!” Skylar says,
“I wish me and Skylar both progress to the age of twenty-one!” You wish.
Both you and Skylar feel a slight change in your bodies. You physically feel slightly more mature, your face feels more mature as well, as with the rest of you. You maybe gained an inch in height, but it wasn’t enough for you to really notice anything. You look to Skylar, she’s exactly the same height, the only difference being her face looked a little more mature. Overall, you really didn’t see a whole lot of change.
“That was underwhelming…” you said, “I mean I didn’t expect much, but that was pretty much nothing,”
“Yeah…” Skylar said, sadly, “I don’t know what I expected… I guess I just wanted to see what I looked like as a full adult,” she said,
“Well…” you started, having an idea, “we’ve got the ring, why don’t we modify our ‘adult selves’ to fit how we really wanted,”
Skylar smiled lightly, “you really just meant me, didn’t you,” she chuckled,
“Well…” you reply back, “I always had an ‘idea’ of what I wanted to look like as an adult…”
“Wow,” Skylar said, looking much more intrigued, “I’m very interested in that…”
