"Okay, let's be responsible," Aidan agreed, mimicking Jake's apprehensive nod. "And adventurous. I want to try something. In the spirit of responsible fun."
Seeing Jake's raised eyebrow, he let out a laugh. "No, no, nothing like a banana. You already did the food thing. Let's try... a vehicle part?"
Jake's eyes momentarily widened, his undergraduate brain attempting to make sense of this unusual suggestion. "A vehicle part? Like what?"
Rubbing his chin thoughtfully, Aidan tapped on the search bar of the program and typed in 'vehicle parts'. A wide range of options came up, each weirder than the next. "This one," he finally pointed at a picture of a rubber wheel, the kind you'd see as the rear wheel on most motorcycles.
Jake squinted at Aidan, a serious question perched on his tongue. "Are you trying to make your privates...efficient for transportation?"
"No, man!" Aidan laughed, falling back on his bed. "Just curious. Remember we are doing this responsibly."
Taking a deep breath, Aidan clicked on the picture and the program prompted him to confirm his choice. With a final glance at Jake, he clicked 'confirm'.
Suddenly, like Jake had before, Aidan felt a strange warmth and ripple of sensation in his lower body. He looked down in wonder as he felt his privates shift, grow, harden, and expand. As the transformation took place, the standard human texture gave way to a rubbery, tough exterior - the telltale feel of a tire. His startled gasp echoed in the room.
"Dude..." he breathed, unable to take his eyes off the transformation. His privates were now encased in a layer of solid rubber, thick treads running across them, and the center morphed into a metallic rim. It was surreal and unlike anything he had ever felt. He was awestruck by the level of detail, the way it perfectly mimicked the grooves and patterns found on a motorcycle rear wheel.
Jake watched in stupefied silence, his previous lesson not yet forgotten. He reached out for the laptop, locating the revert option for Aidan. "This is... bizarre. Ready to turn it back?"
"Wait, I want to feel this for a second," Aidan announced. "It's not a banana, yes. But, at least now, we know the Chronivac isn't just about fruits and vegs."
Jake shook his head, bemused, and yet, finding a vein of curious excitement in Aidan's exploration. "Alright, just...don't start rolling around the room, okay?"
Despite Jake's jest, Aidan found the idea of rolling around strangely appealing. A wide grin spread across his face as he looked at Jake. "Rolling around, you say?" he said, his enthusiasm infectious. "Brilliant idea!"
Jake's eyes bulged, "Wait, Aidan, I was just..."
But before he could finish, Aidan had already jumped to his feet, an excited glint in his eyes. He crouched, positioning his newly transformed privates on the ground - something that no textbook or late-night internet research had prepared him for.
Meanwhile, Jake stood as if glued to the spot, every instinct telling him to intervene, but pure incredulity rooting him to the spot. "Aidan! This... This isn't what I meant!"
However, Aidan wasn't listening. He pushed forward, trying to find the right balance. At first, his attempt only resulted in him toppling over. But Aidan was nothing if not persistent. After a few false starts, Aidan found his equilibrium and began to actually roll around the room - his laughter bouncing off the walls along with barks of delight, "Yes, I'm doing it! Jake, I'm doing it!"
Jake could only shake his head in disbelief, "Aidan, you... You're an absolute madman!"
Aidan ignored him, caught in the novelty of his strange activity. He finally stopped rolling around as the elation ebbed away, replaced by a newfound respect for the bizarre gadget they'd received.
He roared with laughter, "Okay, okay... Let's revert it. Riding a motorcycle is one thing but, man, being one? That is... something else. Adventure ticked, let's get back to being responsible."
Relief washed over Jake as he lunged to click the 'Revert' button. The wheel receded, rubbery textures and hard metal giving way to softer, more familiar skin. Within moments, Aidan was back to his usual self - albeit with a cheeky grin and a wheezy, post-adventure laugh.
Jake rolled his eyes, "Alright, champ. You had your fill of fun. Let's promise not to turn any parts of our bodies into play-things, okay?"
Aidan's laughter ebbed, but his grin remained. "Not even a little one? Not even on a really, really boring day?"
